cratic Organization.
For THE CAUcAsIAS.
Very recently the Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee of Georgia have
elected Fleming Du Bignon, as chair
man of the committee. This would
be OF no consequence, ordinarily,
nor would it attract attention. But
in view of the fact that MIR. Du Big
non was the gold standard candidate
for the United States Senate against
Senator Clay, it is highly important
and necessary that the public should
be informed of this action on the
part of the Democratic committee.
Is there any consistency in making
tight for free silver and financial
reform, yet place at the helm men
who regard these great questions as
''heresies ?" Does the Democracy of
Georgia, under the leadership of Du-
Bignon, intend to overthrow the
principles of Bryan
Was there no true silver man in
the great state of Georgia to fill that
high position of trust
Mr.. w. E. Christian, of the News
and Observer staff has written very
remarkable letter showing how dan
gerOusly and disastrously the rail-
road influence has dominated the
Democratic party in North Carolina
and he calls for a halt. Can that party
stand consistently and honestly for
Bryan, and at the same time have for
it's chairman a goldbug and Southern
Railroad attorney Let the rank
and file purge their organization,
and other reform forces will be ready
to cooperate to secure a remedy for
present evils.

Blacklisting no Crime.

Judge Brown, of Chicago, has de-
cided that it is legal for railroad
company or a combination of rail-
road mpapies to blacklist a former
employe. The railroad company did
not deny the blacklisting and made
no defense, stating that it had COM
mitted no offense. The Judge prompt
ly decided that blackl,sting is per-
fectly proper and legal. The COM
plainant escaped with mis- life. Now
of course boycotting is a crime. If
number of men boycott a railroad
by agreeing not to patronize it, that
is a crime, and they can be cent to
Jail. The courts have so decided.
But if a number of railroad compa-
MES agree that certain man shall
not work on their roads or any Other
roads in any part of the United
States, that is all right. Let the mar
starve. 1t will teach him not to strike
Aud some people wouder at the grow
ing contempt of the American judi
ciary. In many sections of the coun
try no honest man can get nomina
ton, to say nothing of an election
as Judge. He must make advance
pledges to certain corporations ant
interests before his candidacy vii
be considered by the party bosses
This is an absolute fact and an ap
J palling one.-The New Time.

IRE MARKABlE FOR ITS STRENGTH
AND CRAFTSMANSHIP"

What the Philadelphia Item Says Edito-
rally About Senator Buffers Article on
TRUSTS. the Causes, and the Remedy
In this month 8 Arena, United
States Senator Butler, of North Car
DINA, presents a view about trusts
which is remarkable for it's strength
and craftsmanship.
The Senator says that monopollsts
and corporations use the peoples in
struments Of comm, rec, ss the mos,
powerful agencies and weapons in
the industrial system of the nation,
to Cypress, tyrannize, intimidate,
and rob every independent person
aud business enterprise. They bleed
the country, make themselves mil
lionaires, and then use their ill-got-
ten gains, their red-handed blood
money, to control and dominate
Congress itself.
While it is true that Congress pre-
tends to reg ulate these instruments
of commerce, the fact is those who
control the instruments of commerce
control Congress, prevent the pas
sage of effective laws to cure the
evil, and secure the passages of
other laws in their own interest,
which aggravate the evil. Congress
made its fatal mistake when 1t put
into the hand; Of private persons
and syndicateS these powerful vital
constitution instruments Of com
merce, which make trusts and make
them greater than Congress.
In all our political campaigns the
allied monopolies which have a trust
| on money, a trust on transportation,
and trust on newspapers, combine.
They select the conventions they
will control, they elect the candi.
dates they have selected. OF course
they control them after they are
elected. This has gone on until to-
day these allied trusts control and
dominate every branch of our gov
eminent. What terrible mistake
Congress has made in surrenderine
to private greed such powerful weap
ons and indispensable public agen
cies for general prosperity and thu
preservation Of good Government!
| If the commanding officers of any
army should disarm their own sold
iers, turn over their guns to the en-.
envy, and then attempt to fight {
battle, they would not act mor'
foolishly and treacherously thai
Congress has done in failing to exc
cute in behalf of the people its vest
ed constitutional powers in a mat
ter of such vital Importance to tn
general welfare of the country an,
the life of the Government.
Thus the one vital, comprehensiv,
and paramount question confront
ing our people to day is this: Shal
we have government by the for
eign gold trust and its allied monop
olles, which have captured our in
struments of commerce with the in
dustrial trusts of which these ar
the parents-a government of tn
trusts, by the trusts, and for tn
trusts; or shall we, by re-establist
ing the principles of Jefferson DE-
m ocracy, under which the instrr
ments of commerce must be used a
public functions, break the powe,
of these industrial demons which al
. devouring US, and re-enthrone go,
