Butler and Brice Have a Confab.

The closing hours Of the session,
says the Washington correspondent
of the Baltimore Sun, have devel-
oped some very remarkable personal
alliances in the Senate, which have
rather astonished the crowd of in
auguration visitors in the galleries.
Last night, after Senator Tillman
had successfully outraged the Sen
ate's sense of propriety by speech
so violent that he withheld it from
the Record today in order, it is sup
posed, to tone it down, he became
the earnest advocate of the various
propositions advanced by Senators
Hale and Chandler, and, sitting be
side the latter, ,aided him in his con-
tention. The most remarkable in.
dication of strange friendship
which the galleries have witnessed,
however, was when Senator Brice
walked across the Senate chamber
this morning and, taking a seat be.
side Senator Butler. of North Caro-
lima, entered into long and conf
Dental conversation with the Popu-
list leader.
When the Senate is within few
hours of the close of a session all
past differences are. forgotten, and
Republicans and Democrats combine
for sndagainst special appropria
tions in manner that suggests the
entire obliteration Of party lines.

The Gist of
MCKinley's inaugural.

President Mckinley in his inau-
gural address calls especial attention
| to the need of revision of the finan-
cial system. He says our paper
money offers constant embarrass-
ment to the treasury and he wants a
system devised to remedy these ar
rangements. "With adequate reve-
nue. secured, but rot until then, We
can enter upon such change in our
fiscal laws as will, while irsurlng
safety and volume to our money, no
longer impose upon the government
the necessity of maintaining so large
gold reserve with its attendant and
inevitable temptations to specula
tion." He advocates the appoint
ment of a commission to consider
this question. The question of in-
ternational bimetallism will hav
his earnest and early attention Th,
government should not be permitted
to run behind or increase its debt in
times like the present. We should
have more revenue, and that without
delay.
The paramount duty of Congress
is to stop deficiencies by the restora-
tion of that protective legislation
which has always been the irmest
prop of the Treasury.
In the revision of the tariff, spec
ial attention should be given to the
enactment and extension of the
reciprocity principle of the law of
1890.
Lynchings must not be tolerated
in a great and civilized country like
the United States.
He declares against trusts and
combines, and says the anti trust
laws must be enforced.
He advocates change in the nat
uralization and immigration laws.
Reforms in the civil service must
60 on.
Congress should give prompt at
tentlon to the restoration of our
American merchant marine.
We want ne wars Of conquest; we
must avoid the temptation of terri
torial aggression. War should never
be entered upon until every agency
of peace has failed; peace is prefer
able to war in almost every contin-
gency.
Arbitration is the true method of
settlement of international as well as
local or individual differences.
l do not sympathize with the SEN
timent that Congress in session is
dangerous to our general business
interests Its members are the agents
Of the people, and their presence at
the seat of government in the e1ecu-
tion of the sovereign will should not
operate as an injury but a benefit.
There could be no better time to put
the cover nment upon sound fnan-
cial and economic basis than now.
The people have only recently voted
that this should be done, and moth
ing is more binding upon the agents
of their will than the obligation of
immediate action.
| In view of these considerations, ]
shall deem it my duty as President
to convene Congress in extraordinary
session on Monday, the 18th day OF
March, 1897.
In conclusion, l congratulate the
country upon the fraternal spirit
and the manifestations of good will
everywhere so apparent. The recent
election, not only most fortunately
demonstrated the obliteration Of
sectional, or geographical lines, but
to some extent also the prejudicel
which for years have distracted oul
councils and marred our true great
ness as a nation.

Nor since the days of reconstruc-
ton and carpet bag rule have such
scenes been enacted as have occurred
in the State Legislature the past few
days.
The House has been in riot for
three days. Saturday the session
opened at $50 o'clock in the morn
ing and had not ended at midnight
Saturday night. "When some one is
not calling someone else a liar or de-
nouncing the speaker, the proceed
ings are considered tame," says the
News and Observer.
From present indications the Leg
islature will break up in a row, and
expire in sheer exhaustion.
This Legislature is without doubt
the most dis5 raceful since the days
of '68. when the State was looted,
With an overwhelming silver ma
jorlty this Legislature elected gold
standard Senator; legislators favor
ing a tariff for revenue only voted for
strong protectionist; Populists
whose State platform declared fol-
the abrogation of the North Caro-
lima railroad lease voted in favor OF
the lease; in preference to John Ora
ham, probably the ablest Populist in
the State, they voted for D. II. Alb

missioner.

Populists have not broken, plank OF
their platform that they have moi
trampled on, let it be known now, sc

Struck His Companion Dead.

The Salisbury Sun learns from a

gloom of sadness fell over the
bright little town of Marion Sunday
afternoon. Two young men, Will
Dysart and Frank Weaver, aged
about II years each, were in the
drug store of DR.. Morphew and
playfully began boxing when young
Dysart struck Weaver over the heart
and he fell dead. The affair occur
red about 5 o'clock. The young
men are both prominently connected

tragic end sent a thrill of sadness TO
the hearts of all Marion. The blow

Will Represent the
Country Abroad.
Shaw Bowen writes

DR.. William Shaw Bowen writes
from Washington:
Among the earliest appointments
the most important already decided
upon by President Mckinley are the
following:
John Hay, of Ohio, Ambassador
TO England.
Gen. Horace Porter, of New York,
Ambassador to. France.
Gen. William Draper, OF Massa-
chusetts, Ambassador to Germany.
William r. Merriam, of Minneso-
ia, Minister to Austria.
Charles G.. Dawes, of Illinois,
Comptroller of the Currency.
William NJ. Osborne, of Massa-
chusetts, Consul General to Lon
Ion.
John K Gowdy, o: Indiana, Con-
sui General to Paris.
Bellamy Storer, of Ohio, First AS
sistant Secretary of State.
Powell Clayton. of Arkansas, (pos-
sibly) Minister to Mexico.
William Fl. Hahn, of Ohio, Mar
shall of the District of Columbia
Col. Russell (of McKinley's Ohio
Regiment,) Commissioner of Pen
sions.
Perry S. Heath, of Indiana, an
important assistant secretaryship.
Bellamy Storer is a lawyer and
former member OF Congress and a
millionaire. AS the first assistant
to secretary Sherman in the State
Department, he will hold the most
important under. secretaryship in
the new administration. Gen. Dra-
per of Massachusetts, and Governor
Merriam, of Minnesota, the pros
pectiye Ambassadors to Germany
and Austria, whose names are here
announced for the first time, are
both Republicans of high standing
in their own States. Gen. Merriam
did more than any man in the
Northwest to get the word "gold"
in the last Republican platform He
was in favor of square declaration
on finance when Mr.. Hanna wanted
to compromise. He would have been
in the Cabinet but for the bitter
feud between the Merriam and
Washburn factions in Minnesota G.
G. Dawes, who will be Comptroller
of the Currency, is under thirty. His
executive ability was demonstrated
in the Mckinley headquarters at
Chicago during the campaign, Will
lam Fl Osborne, of Boston, is the
President s cousin. He spent most
of the year 1895 in travelling in the
South fixing the Southern delegates.
