The Caucasian., 1896-09-03

We don't care anything about il,
but this is q year when facts ought
to be adhered to; for an exaggera-
ton or "bluff' or a missts.ement {
cannot be made without being found
out.
By the way, what sides spli.tinr,
ridiculous ''jolly" that was in a
News and Observer headline the
other day. /. read something like
this: Jarvis wipes up the earth
with Guthrie" Good gosh Even
the pigs grunted at that. All sorts
of people laid their fingers along
side their nose and hooted. 1t Was
the worst break of the campaign up
10 date. Everybody who read the
paper wondered if the News and
Observer really thought he or she
was fool. And they were dis
gusted. No wonder.
Again, what's the use Of such CUFF
as ihisf 1t is out of date. The sup
erannuated nerve and the old time
gall that formerly made such drivel
acceptable have been dismissed by
the people. In a most friendly way,
we suggest that its no good for our
contemporary TO make tangled-leg-
eyed fool Of itself. And we hope
for the sake OF the papers home
town that it will not be guilty of such
a humping "slip up as this again.
EDITORIAL LENT.
We notice that the Democratic
State press lay great emphasis upon
"Cy" WatsO on as an enemy to the
trusts, monopolies and corporations,
and that if he is elected he will an
nihilate and exterminate the last one

Olina. This certainly seems to us an
admission on the part of Democrats
that there are trusts and corporations
existing in the State: this being So
We wish to ask "Why is it the pres
ent administration does not wipe them
out of existence;" especially do we di-
rect this question to the attorney gen
eral now in office and who is before
the people for reelection? How does
HE stand on this matter.
| Less than a year ago Democrats
were ridiculing Populists and apply
ing al manner of vile epithets with
out ever stopping to consider whether
POpulists were right or wrong in the
advocacy of their platform. They
have mysterlously ceased their
uncomplemintary remarks regarding
the damn fool idea of free silver. II
they will investigate the whole plat.
form as carefully as they have silver
they may be inclined to steal the resi-
of the Peoples Party platform and
then swell up like toad and say "LOol
at u.s.
Hon. ThOs. E. Watson has resigned
the position of editor of the People:
Party paper, which he has so long anC
ably filled. He purposes deyoting hi
entire time to the campaign. Mr.
James L. Sibley will take up his edi
torial work, and it will no doubt b,
we'll done. Mr.. Watson, it is said, Il
preparing to tour the west. He viii
speak at Dallas, Texas, on the 9TH O
September. at which time big labo
meeting will be held. Texas is saf'
for Bryan and Watson.
Say; next time the Pops nominal,
any body, and the Democratic pres
begins to howl that he is a goldbug
are you going to believe it? You ma
have an opportunity to hear just sucl
another howl from the Democratic
press in few days. But just remem
Der next time, in spite of all tn
squawking and squalling you ma,
hear that the Pops most generall1
know what they are doing.
And for a while the Democratic pa
pers said that Dockery was a goldbug
Then they said he was going to vot
for Mckinley and Watson Umph
They will still say anything!! If the,
ever could learn, they would lonI
since have come to the conclusion tina
Pops most generally know what the,
are doing. Pops are kinder built tina
way, you see.
So the Democratic goldbug conven

been good enough for goldbugs; an
it is good enough yet. Say, pardnel
haven't you got enough sense to Sc
what it means?
When man like Dockery refuses t
! go with his party, isn't it about time fo
those who have blindly followed part
to stop and think? Do they knO1

We have had an overproduction @
almost everything else, with no relic

The st. Louis Republic says there j
