SENATOR I'RITCHAItD'S PLOP. Senator; Pritchard, who flops from one side of the ' money ques tion to the other nearly as often as the seasons chaajfe, has now declar ed it is said, that he is in favor of free silver. . v The leading editorial in the Raleigh" Caucasian, the populist! organ, yesterday in speakiig of Senator Pritchard says: s "In nearly every speech in the last campaign Senator Pritchard gave the puWic to understand that ne oaa cnangea ms views Jie , is rep rtnl uut only by the news papeis, but by those who heard him speak, to have usd' copies sion like the following: "1 hive changed my mind about the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to I. I now think that it would be disastrous I favor it if we can feet it by inter national agreement. I stand flat footed ou every plank in the St. Louis platform, 1 he financial plauk and'all." Again he 'is reported in a speech in Metropolitan hall to have used the following language. '1 he free silver people want fret whiskey, free trade and tree silver and everything free but free ne groes H In short when he did not keep silent, he ridiculed and be li.ded tree silver, which is on j one of the first steps to fim.ncia. reform , more money and .el ief. "Can any populist support a man for the highest and most im portaut legislative office in the country, who expresses such views? Besides the leading re publican paper in the state, edi torially set forth that Senator Pritchard bad changed and would in the future stand squarely bj the ''sound money" platform ol the National Republican party . but that he would vote fur fiet silver till the 4th of next March. The editor stated that he ha:! a letter f:oiu Senator Pritchard on this question ai d that he was stat ing his position. . i ""Continuing" the" raucaiotf sa j further: ''In the first place no populisi could afford . to vote for Senafo Pritchard ocenping this position, even-if hf had iu-' changed last summer.' In the second place, no populist can afford , to v te for a man for senator who t;as .flopped around as be has, no matter w hat he pledges now. "No populist can maintain him self or his party unless lie takes the .am? stand toward enatr Pritch.rd A y populist who is satisfied with his course need nev er t have joined tI.epeopV par ty, because he would have been at home in eilher'of the old parties We warn each populist . who be licvs iu hi princ:ples and loves his party to consider these matters before h? makes a fatal blunder a blunder that will he fatal to his party if his party is held mpnsi ble f- r his acts." .

Concord Standard, THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE. . BAD CASE ENTIRELY CURED. Governor arr sent bis annual - The Washington- correspondent message to the legislature of the Herald says: J "The bad Thursday afternoon.

He' T, . a '., . . , views department and shows that he has kept in close touch with the workings of the government H stans off bv saying that for the first time in twenty years the interests of the state n all its branches has ben de- iverd into the hands of a dif ¬ ferent political party. ii.e measures which you may deem wise may be opposed to the poli cy heretofore pursued, and In making changes I cautiou you to consider carefully and well such changes as pertain to 1 1 e iiistituriotiH of the stare, for tbe people will- hold you responsi ble for the success or failure of mh h measures " The governor heartily com mends and endorses the lease of the North Carolina Railroad to the Southern Railway Company. "I favored the lease of this pro- perty and it was done by the Board of Directors with my full oncurrence and endorsed by he stock holders . wii uim- a oissenting voice," says the gov ernor. "I believed and still le live it is the best thing that could have been done by the state and the future will dett r miue the wisdom of the trans action. Men sometimes, for one reason or another, criticise public officials without having fully informed themselves a to all th facts in the case. Under such circumstances their ad verse criticisms are not always ust or their conclusion . infalli ble. An impartial investigation nay show that some of the critics of the lease belong to lBaFcTass.,"'! The executive is also a friend to higher edu alion mid what h says in regard to the Univer sity should lie argument enough for any body of men to let tbe approp: iation remain as at pres ent ($20,000) or if needs be to increase. He says: - "i he University was estab- ished under the mandate of the Cons' itution 106 years ago. It stat.ds at the head of the public school system, and it is the aim of the ambitious student to com lete here th education begun in' the public school.

Whit more could he have said? If tho appropriation is rut off Governor Uarr can rest issured that h has done his duty faithfully and the rerpon- Hibility will not be laid at his door. Taken altogether the message is common sense document and if followed by the two branches of the legislature will.no doubt rettult in much good to the state. j,,ir,,LA k.. r. Tt.tis Opinion.

I is peech might have attracted more attention had not everybody known that he is making hard fight for reflection aud that many rich and influential Cubans are residents of his state. Represen tative Sulzur, of Ntw York, had a mild attack of jingoism, but he seemed to be relieved after he had offered a resolution in the Ilouse giving Spain thirty days notice that we sh.m!d not only rccog-jfor nize the independence of Cuba hut mainuuo - mni maepenaenrer oy force, if the fighting in Cuba was not hereafW conducted strictly iu ccordance with recognized rules of war among civilized nations.

PROSECUTED for piracy. It will be remembered tbai some time ago the "Three Friends," the little Cuban fili - bustering steamer, was attack - ed by two Spanish war steamers and that the former returned the tiro of the latter and drove vthcui off, after which she made her escape. The United States govern, ment, under the ru'e of the House of Cleveland, has now announced its purpose to pro ceed against the Americaosjupho were on the vessel and took part in the naval skirmish, as pirates, the penalty of which is death. -Z Of all the crimes he has com mitted against the A er'O o people since he was ! i o office this is the most ui, . oy that'Cleveland, the arch traitor of this nation. has ever attempt ed. In speaking of this the New York Journal voices the sentiments of nine tenths of the American people. It says: "President Cleveland has obliged Spain in many ways, has done all in his power to save a corrupt and venal mon archy from paying the penalty of its barbarous oppression of the Cubans. He has put the United States Navy at the ser vice of the Spaniards, and has trodden down the Constitution in order to balk the will of the American people. - ' "But when he undestakes to have six American Citizens hanged by the neck until tbey are dead ecause they beat off Spanish armed vessels, which sought to board their craft, he exceeds his limit of power. The Journal does not question the zeal with which the Cleveland tdministration will strive to send these men to the gallows lhe c0mfort of Spain, but it thinks the United States District Attorney of Jacksonville" wi 1 have to send to Alaska for a jury not absolutely. ertain to acquit the accused." Th re is not a monarcy on earth whose ruler has assume ;I as ranch authority as this trait or Cleveland. If Queen Vic toiia had dared dictate legisla tion and ignore the will ol her subjects as Cleveland has 1.1 this boasted "land of the brave and free," herliead would have rolled into the basket so lor.g ago that she would have been forgotten. Thank God his reign is nearing a close. EDITORIAL BONBONS. There's one good thing about President Cleveland, anyhow. He has never been puMj f playing lawn tennis i.n Union.

The following, joint re 1 solution, which explains Itself, was introduced by Mr. Sutton, of Cumberland county, Friday and was past unanimously: ''That our , senators be in structed, and our . represents tives be requested to use all honorable means and as early as possible, to bring about the passage of an act of congress recognizing the indendence of the patriots of Cuba who for 60 long a time have been struggl Ing for lifefand liberty, the God given heritage of n men."

A joint sessh n of the Senate aud House was held today and the returns for the November election canvassed. When the oint session was dissolved Gov. Stone's last message was pre sented in each branch and read. Adjournment was then taken J until Monday. The message relates mo9"-iwloily,:rtr-iiirT nal affairs. Of, train robbery the Governor has this to say: . "It surpasses all others in its detrimental effects on the state. When such crimes occur with frequently current that life and property are unsafe within the jurisdiction where they prevail. Itii a crime which f hould be absolutely extirpated. That cannot be accomplished by pen itentiary sentences. The Thir ty-eighth General Assembly, alive to the importance of this subject, made the crime a capi tal punishment, however, was eft to tin discretion of the jury. 8everal convictions have been had since the enactment of the law referred to, but only peni teu'iary sentences were pro nounced.
