"I believe," he says, "that it can be
demonstrated by tho public twirls and
acts of Congns that a conspiracy was
entered into for the purpose of decreasing
tho Wildes of labor, depreciating the
values of nroncrtv and increasing the
. . lit
power of money by contracting the cur
lvucy aud withdrawing ii permanently
from the channels of trade.
"In IS70 Cwigrosipasscd 11 law known
as the Refunding bill, by which 81,50(1,
000,U(JO of bands payable in greenbacks
were authorized to be exchanged for new
bonds which were payable on their face
in coin.
"The third step in this conspiracy was
the demonetization of silver.
"This act of demonetization added
largely to the burdcus of the people r.nd
im-rraso tha difficult v of Having oil" the
national and the debts of the Individ
citizeus.''
In discussing the position of Mr.
Stevenson, the National Democrat says
that Mr. Stevenson holds the advanced
position on the silver question and foiti
fies with facts and figures that are con
vincing. He calls for the repeal of the
resumption act; the f ill and uulitnited
reuionetizitiou and coinage of the tilvcr
dollar; the retirement of the notes of the
national banks and the substitution of
greenbacks iu their places, lie draws a
picture of the prosperity of the couutiy
from ISC j to 1SU8, before the demoneti
zation id' silver. In the year of 18(1(1 the
volume cf the circulating medium whs
f 1.603,702,820. Ten years after, in
1S7G, it was but 8735,900,000 and in
1877 only $076,243,184. Each year
the volume has decreased as the popula
tion grew greater, uutil the amount per
capita is now but $14.60, us against
8.")0.70 in the prosperous year to which I
have referred. Ho quoted Edmund
Burke's words : "I love clamor when
there is an abuse. The alarm bell dis
turbs the inhabitants, but saves them
from being burned in their beds." The
people of this country aro now engaged in
an earnest and successful agitation of
this important question. They aro or
ganizing throughout the United States
I'oi political action, and their triumph is
only a question of time.
A few evenings ago a lull' a dozen men
were sitting in front of the Capital Hotel
discussing various topics, when Judge
Vest, of the Superior Court, in telling un
anecdote of a trial, remarked that the
witness vawiicu una tie knew lie was
lying.
How did you know?" was asked.
"Well. sir. have seen witnes-es lie
and not yawn, but I never knew one to
yawn that he was not telliug a lie."
Judge Sims, the member of the Legis
lature from TiL'g, lenr.iiked : "Yes, I

Judge Wall, tho Senator from Mason,
came m and eoiroboiuted the statements
of the others; and just then Judge Hrent,
of the Superior Court, joined the group,
" es, ho chimed in, "when a witness
vaivns he is tcllinc. a lie, aud he knows
it."
Several other lawyers were appealed to
and all bole out tho statements made.
None, however, could explain the phe
nomenon. Judge Yost was the only one
who hail a theory, and that was that
when a fellow was wearing to a lie he
could not face the limb and his eui-barrassm-iit
found explosion in yawns.

Senator Iugalls had a few wolds to say
on this subject before he got "out of a

"We cannot," said he, "disguise the

dead. The people are arraying them
selves upon one side or tho other of a
portentous contest. On one side is
capital, formidably entrenched in piivi

servative, tenacious to old theories, de
manding new concessions, enriched by
domestic levy and foreign commerce, and
struggling to adjust all values to its own
standard. On the other is labor, asking
for employment, striving to develop do
mestic industries, battling with the forces
of nature and subduing tho wilderness;
labor, starving and sullen in cities, reso
lutcly determined to overthrow a system
under which the rich are growing richer
and the poor poorer a system which

wealth beyond the dreams of avarice.

During the missionary work at Chica
go a special committee from Wisconsin,
emulating ot Uovernor reels, ucuerai
Bragg and other distinguished delegates
from that State, waited ou the Tennessee
delegation on behalf of Ex-President
Cleveland.
An amusing anecdote in connection
with their visit occurred when one of tho
Tennesseo delegates asked Governor Peck
why ho had no Cleveland badge on. The
Governor replied, pointing to a safety
pin which was pinned conspicuously on
the red lapel of his coat,' I could not get
a Clevclaud badge, but I am wearing this
piu in honor of Baby Ruth."
Tc!l!:is t'ac Truth.
It's a common saying that newspapeis
lie, but when an editor writes a thing and
puts his uauie to it you may be turo bo is
telling tho truth. Head this: "We have
never before said one word in favor of
any patent medicine advertisement in
our columns, but having given Simmons
Liver Regulator a fair trial, wo do not
hesitato to sy, that for Dyspepsia and
licncral debility it cannot be excelled."

A correspondent of the Charlotte Ob
server writes: "Apropos of the North
Carolina descent of Gen. Adlai E. Steven
son, I am surprised that no paper that I
have seen has commented ou the fact
that there is an Adlai Stevenson living
in Statesville, N. C, who, while unknown
to popular fame, has a reputation that
reaches farther than that of his namesake.
This Mr. Stevenson is known to botanists
mineralogists and archeologists tho world
over, us one of the most accurate authori
ties ou these subjects and possessed of one
of the finest private collections of Indian
relics in this country. Ho has been for
years in correspondence with the leading
Fcientilio men in these departments both
in this country and in Europe, and classi
ficd collections have hern made- by hiin
for temporary loan to European univcrsi
tits." Tho Reidsville Review adds that
Mr. Stevenson is the discoverer of the
