MR.. sCHURz's FALLACY.

In his speech at Chicago last night,
Carl Schurz commended in highest
terms the wisdom of the great civiliz-
ed nations of Europe in adopting the
gold standard and declared that 'these
nations have prospered"-In his last
report to Parliament the Chancellor of
the Exchequer congratulated the peo-
pie upon the healthful showing of the
national fianaces, but was forced to
dctlore the condition of the agrIcultnr-
aIists, who in Great Britain, as in all
other gold standard countries are get
ting poorer and poorer every year. The
Chancellor had no hope to give farm
ers, proposed no measure that would
relieve their distress, but was full of
ioy that the government Golfers were
full to overlooking. No country can be
called prosperous where the condition
of the bold peasantry, a nations
pride" is regarded as less important
than the government revenues.
Mr.. Schurz did not attempt to eX-
plain why it is, if the gold standard has
made European countries prosperous,
the poor of those countries have been
seeking better homes where it was pos
sible to rise from a state of abject pow
erty America has been the haven
of this large class until recent years,
but now the gold standard has wrought
its perfect work here, driving the boys
from Improbable farms to fill the
ranks of the great army of the unem-
ployed, which is constantly increased
by immigrants from the prosperous
countries of civilized Europe"
Mr.. Schurz has made a speciality of
delivering" the German vote to first
one party and the other for a quarter
of a century, leading them to one
vagary after another, until they have
become tired of his guardianship.
Many of them favor the gold standard,
but their faith will be greatly weaken
ed if they come to believe that the gold
standard is 10 brang the same pros
perity'' to the masses here it has
brought to them sin the civilized coun-
tries of Europe" If Mr.. Schurz has
forgotten the cry of starvation that
has been coming up from Ireland for
500 years; the distress of thousands
in Darkest England;" the gaunt
faces of the half fed peas
ants in every gold standard
country If Mr.. Schurz has forgotten
the real conditions that confront the
humble in civilized Europe" the mass
es of immigrants have larger memo
ries. They want no system perpetual
ed here that has driven them from
their native land.

WHAT PALMER AND BUCKNER
MAY EXPECT.

In 1872, after the regular Democratic
convention nominated Horace Greedy
for President, there were some leaders
who repudiated party action, called
another convention, and named what
they called a genuine Democratic
icket''-History repeats itself. The
O'Connor ticket received a total vote
of 9,489 out of a total vote of six and
a half millions. The Palmer and Buck
ner ticket will get more. The vote of
the country has greatly increased, but
when the returns come in next Novem-
Der the gold boilers will find that
O'Connor was a true predecessor of
Palmer. O'Connor's highest vote was
in Georgia where he received 1000
votes.
The moral Is thai you can't have an
army composed entirely of generals.

stirred up more than one leading gold
bug paper to send a correspondent to
Mexico to find material to answer him,

their side. The latest is from the New
York Mail and Express" whose staff
correspondent starts a three-column
lamentation as follows:
chihuahua, Mexico, Aug. 16.-Jus-
tice Walter Clark, of the North Caro-
lima Supreme court, visited Mexico in
January and February of this year,
and then wrote five magazine articles
for an American monthly, beginning
in February and ending in June. Mr..
Justice Clark found that the free coin
age of silver had brought universal
prosperity to Mexico, and that the far
mers were receiving IA cents a pound
for cotton, and for wheat and corn
81 to $3.50 bushel, according to the
season.
Extracts from Mr.. Justice Clark's
narratives have been distributed in
the form of leaflets throughout all
the cotton States of the South and the
corn and wheat States of the West and
and Northwest. / was in Atlanta on
August 18th, during the State conven-
ton of the Populists, and these leaflets
were in the hands of the farmers, who
were shouting for the free coinage of
silver, with cotton at IA cents a pound
and corn at ST. a bushel On the train
from Atlanta to Montgomery the presi-
dent of a Birmingham bank, whose
card l have mislaid, argued with Mr..
A. w. Chaffee, of Plymouth, Mich, and
said that Justice Clark's articles had
convinced him and all the producers
of the South that free silver coinage
in Mexico had brought extraordinary
prosperity to the growers of corn, cot
ton and wheat
The editor of the Washington Post,
who has been repeatedly to Mexico,
though not a silver man, has endorsed
Judge Clark's statements, as have Mr.
Romero, the Mexican minister to
Washington, and many others familiar
with the subject.

THE NEW SUPERINTENDENT.

We are glad to be able to state in
another column that Mr.. John +. Ray,
now superintendent of the Kentucky
Institution for the Deaf, Dumb and
Blind, has seen his way clear toward
accepting the corresponding position
in the institution here.
Mr.. Ray will be remembered heartily
by our people. Besides having once
been for twelve years teacher in the
Raleigh institution, he is, moreover, a
native of this county. He has held
positions of honor in his profession in
Colorado. and now at a pecuniary loss
to himself he consents to come back to
his old home for the love of his people.
Mr.. Ray is young, active, thoroughly
up-to-date in his work, and with a
character of the highest type and a
mature experience he will return to
such cordial welcome as may more
than repay him for his pecuniary sacri-
fee.

PoWDERLY ON SILVER.

Tt was announced a few days ago that
millionaire John Wanama1er would
open the campaign in Pennsylvania at

ment accompanied the announcement.
sit is expected that Mr.. Wanna
maker will SECURE MIR. Powderlv
TO speak with him"
The word secure was not in caps in
the publication, but it seemed to n3 an
appropriate word to use. The time was
when Mr.. Powderly, in the palmy DAYS
of the Knights of Labor, would not
have advocated the elevation of Mark
Hanna, the destroyer of the Sea
mems Union, the leader of the war
against organized labor in the Ohio
coal fields, and the chief cOrrupter Of
The American ballot. 1t was only five
years ago when Mr.. Powderly stood
with other labor leaders, and wrote a
strong and unanswerable argument i'm
favor of free coinage from the stand
point of a wage Garner. 1t appeared
in the North American Review, and
some portion of it is reproduced in to-
days paper.
Mr.. POwderly somehow or other lost
his power, and now we find him as a

Mark Hanna and John Wanamaker
But the best class of the labor leaders
have not gone over to their enemies.

When the moneyed men of the land all
rush to the support of Mckinley and
the gold standard, it is time for the la
bor leaders to get on the other side, be-
cause experience has demonstrated

tween the men who make wealth and

For some time, Governor" Campbell
was not at all certain that there would
not be fusion on the Republican cleo
toral ticket, but since the conference
between Pritchard and Pearson and
Mark Hanna, there has been no doubt
that the straight Mckinley ticket is
the only thing that need apply.
So that Hooley comes out this week
for a straight ticket which proves that
Hanna's Yeast Powders are begin
ming to get in their work.
Here it is: 'If the committee viii
put out a full ticket composed of Re-
publicans, Russell will be elected Gov
ernor and Mckinley win carry the
State. It's worthless to court the
Populists maid any longer She has
refused all offers of wedlock, and viii
finally die an old maid"
One word and we are done: now that
the matter of a straight ticket should
be a settled thing, we nominate for
Northumberland on that ticket a
man who is all that Oliver H. Dockery
is not, a man whose sympathies are as
broad as his smile, a man whose con-
victions are as deep as his needs, whose
loyalty to friends is as strong as his
breath, that typical Republican states
man of the Smokies-HooIa-B Boom, of
