BUSINESS MEN AND SILVER.


There are many business men who
feel that the stagnation in business,
the boarding of money because it a.
lone appreciates, and the loss of trade
have affected them seriously. They are
deeply interested in a return of good
times in business, and some of them
are wise enough TO see that money is
the real impetus of trade.
Our attention has been directed, by
w. III. & r. S.~Tucker & Co, to an arti-
Gle in the May number of ''The AM
erican Carpet and Upholstery Trade, ?
of Philadelphia, showing the views of
a prominent business man who is per
sonally well known to Mr.. Dobbin and
Mr.. Ferrall, who know him to be a
successful and wise business man.
We gladly copy the article, and di-
rect the attention of merchants to the
closing paragraph in Mr.. Moore's let
ter:
George w. Moore, a well-known car
pet and dry-goods dealer IN Greenyille,
o., finds time occasionally to discuss
the tariff and silver question, and
leading Chicago paper recently pub
lished two-column article from him
on these topics. Mr.. Moore is very
observant man and noticed in recent
issue of this journal an illustrated
map showing where A. A. Vantine q
Co., of New York, bought and sold. Mr.,
Moore clipped this map from our coli
umns and in sending it to us remarks:
For years Americans have been
sending our missionaries to the
Orient with view to enlighten
and Christianize their people. In
short, we have long regarded them
as semi-barbarous, and scarcely
worth the notice of civilized ma
tions.
"As a result, however, of our
laundering legislation it seems
probable that the Buddhists and
Mohammedans will, ere long, re-
verse things and send their mis-
sionaries to us, and thereby es-
tablish the fact that money, after
all, is the real impetus to ciyiliza-
ton. A needless disparity has been
created between gold and silver,
and this can only be corrected
through the reinstatement of sill
yer to its ancient and legitimate
sphere, jointly with gold as
standard money"
The business man who thinks dol
lar that is constantly approaching is
best for the business of any class, ex-
cept hoarders of idle money, ought to
talk to such men as Mr.. Moore.

SENIOR DAY At CHAPEL HILL.
A Reception to Students and Members
of the Faculty.

Chapel Hill, n. c., May --(Special)
Senior Day was regular holiday and
red letter day it was. At II o'clock
the Seniors delivered their graduating
orations in Gerard Hall. An enthusi-
astic crowd was present to cheer the
favorites. J. c. Eller, of the Di. So
ciety, and r. g. Allsbrook, of the Phi.
Society, easily carried off the honors.
You may look for one Of these TO take
the Mangum Medal at Commencement.
Five members of the class were select
ed to speak at commencement, as fol-
lows: John G. Eller, Richard @. Ais
brook, X. Palemon Jenkins, John w.
Canada and VIM. i. Woodley, Jr.

affairs of the year. 1t was given to
the members of the Faculty and their
families, the Seniors, the resident grad
yates, the members of the baseball and
foot ball clubs, and the members Of
music and dramatic clubs. About $50
we're present, and almost every phase
Of University life was represented in
the evenings entertainment. The
Glee Club sang the favorite
college song, Meath the Oaks
of Our Own Chapel Hill" The
Banjo and Mandolin Clubs rendered
several delightful pieces. Messrs. Lake
and Dey gave some fine solos. Profes-
sor Harrington sang with power and
sweet melody, and Miss Isabella Win
ston played several pretty pieces.
DUghi's cream and cake were served
in abundance. The whole affair was
very enjoyable and entirely free from
formality and restraint.
Mr.. Richard S. Busbee and Mr.. Fab.
J. Haywood, Jr., received at the door
Miss Isabella Winston, assisted by Miss
Dot Manning and Miss Eta Mangum,
were general entertainers, President
and Mrs. Winston received in the par
Tor, and Messrs. Frank Rogers and
John Hill Tucker made the guests al
home in the dining room. The boys
seemed to enjoy themselves thorough
~. The college yells were given with
a vim at the close of the reception
The object of the reception was to
give every Senior an opportunity to
meet every member of the Faculty
and his family, and to show President
Winston's grateful appreciation of the
splendid and honorable record made
during the year by the baseball club
the dramatic club, and the glee, banjo
and mandolin clubs.

ishness and the gold standard the only
true financial system, the President
administered public rebuke 10 his
Secretary. And yet, step by step,
with continued loud disclaimers that
it was a gold-standard policy, we
have come now to the point where
there is no longer any concealment,
and the Northeastern Democracy, and
the Democracy everywhere when the
administration controls, declares in
favor of the single gold standard. The
cost of the single gold standard in one
wear has been two hundred and sixty
two million dollars, not counting in
terest. that will be a burden on the
people for many years to come, nor
the depreciation of property and pro
ducts in the hands of the people. And
the end is not yet.
When those of us who helped to
elect the Democratic administration
and who take pride in its wisdom
along every line where it has been true
to the promises upon which it was
elected, cry out againse the single
gold standard, the reply IS that we are
not Democrats anyway-nnthing but
Populists. The Democrats who refuse
to endorse the single gold standard
are the men who elected the Presi-
dent. They were good enough DEM
ocrats then, but when they demand
that faith be kept with the people,
not only are their motives impugned,
but an attempt is made to drive them
out Of the party. They will suffer
neither. They will not permit the
party to be made the engine of men
whose chief object is to control the
currency, mass it all in a few centres,
issue bonds, and repudiate platform
pledges.
The News and Observer is standing
on the platform, adopted by the State
Democratic Convention in Raleigh
August 8th, 1894. 1t is a declaration
that al Democrats can afford to unite
on:
Resolved, That we re-affirm the
doctrines of the panty as enunci-
ated by the Chicago Convention
of 1892, and desire to signify as
follows what is the construction
placed by us upon the section
thereof relating to silver, viz:
We hold that it is the duty of the
"A law-making department of the gov
& eminent, now in the hands Of the
Democracy, TO take immediate
steps to restore by legislation the
equal privileges of silver with
gold at the minis, by the free and
unlimited coinage of both gold
and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1,
such being the ratio of coinage
which heretofore has held in the
United States.
How much better it would be for the
National Convention to speak out in
words that are so clear that no two
meanings could be placed upon them.
The following plank has been adopted
by several States, and it would be hard
to improve upon it:
eve favor the immediate restor-
alton of the free and unlimited
coinage of gold and silver at the
present ratio of 10 TO /, as such
coinage existed prior to 1873, with
out waiting for the aid or consent
of any other nation, such gold and
silver to be full legal tender for
all debts, public and private"
