CHANGE IN BuTLER'S PAPER.
Caucasian Says PopuIists Prefer Co.
operation With Republicans.

That there is some truth in the re-
port from Washington that trade
has been effected between the Popu-
lists and Repub lean leaders is indi-
Gated by the great change in editorial
sentiment in this weeks Caucasian,
Buffers paper.
Speaki lig of the rumors that plans
are being laid and schemes Matched
out for the purpose of etfecting fusion
or cooperation between Democrats
and Populists, the Caucasian of yes
terday says editorially:
ut is a matter of personal lnoWl-
edge with us that leading Democrats
are advancing propositions for the
Democratic party to nominate certain
Populists for certain State Offices, and
concluding that if this could be done
the Populists would reciprocate the
favor and compliment by endorsing
other nomination that may be made
by the Democratic State conventions,
thus establishing the fusion. Now
it may be well to come to a final I'M
derstanding about the matter. Let
there be no mistake. We hope we
shall make none, and we do not be-
lieye that we make one here. 4 = :
That (the Democratic party, we say,
as an Ofganlcf1Ofce, Is one WIN which
the Peoples part of North Carolina
will never cooperate. We believe we
speak the living truth when we say
that before the Populists would con
sent to such a course, they would go
horse, foot, dragoon, rank and file
bodily into the Republican party, and
do what they could to insure a Re
publican victory in the State of North
Carolina.
democrats are saying that Judge
RUSSELL the Republican nominee FOR
Governor, is the issue this year He
must be defeated so that there can
be Good State Government. Russell
| may or may not be defeated, but there
| is one sure way to defeat him, and that
| is for the Democrats to vote the Popu-
list ticket. This ticket will be com
posed of some of the best men that
| the Democratic party ever had i'll it.
and who left the party when it became
false and politically rotten. They will
| favor the best State government; and
| if the Democrats refuse to vote for
such a ticket it will prove their cry
for good State government to be u
political party lie"

THE DEMOCRATIC AWAKENING.
The Spell if inertia 7 Thrown Of and
Leaders Hopeful and Happy.

Washington. June 7-At last the
Democrats seem to have walked Up and
to have cast off the spell of inertia and
despair put upon them by Cleveland.
In Kentucky Joe Blackburn has lifted
wand and exercised the blight. Now
there is a revival of courage and of
hope. Now there is a quickening Of
every Democratic heart The giant
is aroused. He resumes his manhood
his pride. his independence. The par
ty will be i'm the field after all. We
shall have a contest whether Mr. Clcve-
land wishes it or not.
1t is curious, the sudden trans
formation from coma to activity Two
weeks ago it looked as though no Dem
ocrat cared for anything political The
party lay like a dog at it's masters
feet To-day, inspired by hope, in
stinct with courage and ambition, it
is ready and eager for the fray. No
longer awed and stupetied by Mr..
Cleveland's tiresome iteration of
Sound money" and by his elephan tine
platitudes touching the solemnity of
citizenship and the fearful doom await
ing all schismatics, Democrats have
leaped to their feet. Once more they
stand erect. Once more they think
and act for themselves. The silver
victory in Kentucky has changed ev-
ervthing. 1t has shown Democrats
throughout the country that the adj
ministratiOn can no longer bully or
caiole them-that i'm Mr.. CarIisle's own
State, which hitherto has delighted to
honor him-freedom Of thought has
reasserted itself; that the power lies
with the people and can be taken from
them by no tyrant with his satellites
behind him. And thus there win be
hope and courage at Chicago. The
convention will not Ike an Grseemblage
of tools to carry out some ones dcs-
potic mandate. 1t will be % gathering
of representatives. fresh from the PEG
pie, acquainted with the peoples wish
es and fully determined to express
those wishes with emphasis and vigor.
Mr.. Cleveland seems to be without
friends in either house of Congress. or
in either party. Even the cuckoos
have stopped twittering at his caves.
With reference to free coinage. a
certain Senator, known as q thought
full and thoroughly informed man, and
not in the least identified with the
silver movement, said to me the other
day: Il cannot for the life of me see
how the free coinage of silver is 10
entail upon us the ruin and dishonor
of which Mr.. Cleveland and his echoes
talk so sOlemnly.
Il do not see that the silver coun-
tries, Russia, Mexico and Argentina,
are getting on so badly. They are all
prosperous, their credit is good, their
commerce is increasing every year,
they get all the gold they need for
purposes of exchange, they can borrow
whenever they want to; Mexico makes
a vast profit selling her silver dollars
in Asia; she placed her silver bonds in
Europe last year at very advantageous
rates; all Europe is competing for the
trade of Asia and South America
what is the matter with the so-called
silver nations, anyhow"

th2n go forth to battle united dn plan
and purpose.
We stand in the presence of a great
danger. Its dark shadow has already
been cast across the State. 1T Will be
but little short of calamity to turn
this State over to the Republican NOM
inee for Governor and his followers.
[ appeal to men of all creeds and colors
who love the State and her inshtu-
tions. who desire the happiness and
prosperity of the people and who are
willing to work and vote to secure good
government in North Carolina, to for
get the narrow lines that divide them

RICH STRIKE IN II DoLCoDE.
Thomas Sweeney returned yesterday
morning from a hurried trip to the Tea
group of mining claims on Spring creek,
where he went the evening before on
mining business. While there he said
that a strike wss reported on the Dolcode
lode at the depth of sixty-1ye feet. The
vein at the bottom Of the shaft is fully
three and a half feet in width, and Of a
very high grade of ore. Mr.. Sweeney
states that the ore encountered is the
richest he ever saw, and that the own
ers of the mine are feeling exceedingly
iubilant over the outlook Of their prop
erty. On the Tea mine adjoining, the
shaft has reached a depth of one hun
dred feet and the ledge will at once be
cross. cnt ut least one hundred feet. Mr..
Sweeney visited the mine for the pur-
pose Of securing an extension on the
option TO sixty days in order to allow
eastern parties ample time in which to
make a personal examination of the
mines, and he had no trouble in sscur
ing an additional thirty days to the
option held by himself and John r..
Brennan. There is now no question
that q sale Of this valuable group Of
mines will be made within the time
these gentlemen hold the option, as Mr..
Brennan has already placed the prop
erty with Chicago parties, who will at
once visit it and make q thorough in
vestigation.-Jonrnal.
