late Col. Tbos. I. Faison. of
Samson county, and a half
brother of Mrs, Jc. W. W. Fai

was killed on a railroad trestle
by a passing train.
Some of our readers were dis
posed to take issue with our
special spring poec, "J. M. H ,"
during the recent hot spell, on
the ground that he had lost his
reckoning as to the coming of
spring, his annual spring poem
never appearing lntil the dan

were so disposed to think that
the delay of Jim's poem was evi

The annual reunion of Cons

the city of Richmond June 30 to
July 2, 1896, ana at the same
time the corner stone of the
monument to President Jefferson
Davis will be placed. The rail.-,
roads have made the low rate of
1 cnt per mile, which will make
the cost from Goldsboro to Rich
mond and return about $3.20. All
veterans who intend going are
rcqueated to send in their names
toCapt. T. H. Bain, so that ar

den, aud served in the best style
of the Kennon, was an elegant

was participated in by the entire
department and a number of their
invited guests. That this gen

the part of Messrs. Royall &

members of the department is
manifested by the card of thanks
published elsewhere in this is

Goldsboro of the Graud Lodge
of Odd Fellows will be the most
important occasion in the history
of the order in North Carolina.
The ceremonies of laying the
corner store of the main building
of the Orphans' Home will attract
a larger number of Odd Fel'ows
than has ever assembled at one
time in North Carolina. Many
of the most prominent men in
the order from this and other
States will be present. The ads

Time was when Major Grant and
Marion Butler were "bosom

Grant thought, for mutual ad

Butler has leaped to high place,
ot rich emolument and rare with
opportunities of richer "perqui

11 o'clock, but it was not until
11.40 when the proceedings be
gan. Hon. John W. Corcoran, chair
man of the State Committee, called
the Convention to order. The
chairman and secretary of the
State committee were made the
temporary chairman and secretary
of the committee. The Commit
tee on Credentials reported 1,246
delegates present. The commit

reported the name of John AV.

were nominated by Hon. .J. F.
Fitzgerald as delegates-at large to
the Chicago Convention.
Timothy F. Sullivan, of Low
ell, in a vigorous speech objected
to a viva voce election of dele
gates and demanded that a ballot
be taken.
Congressman Fitzgerald, in an
earnest speech, eulogised in turn
the four gentlemen named, calling
fcrth enthusiastic applause. The
four nominees were chosen with
out a dissenting voice.
The platform gives the admin
istration of President Cleveland
during both terms, an emphatic
endorsement and says:
' 'Believing that the true inter
ests of the people require that the
earnings of trade and the wages of
labor be paid in money that is in
trinsically worth, in all markets
of the world, what it purports to
be worth, we demand the main
tenance of the existing gold stand

ment shall keep all its obligations,
at ala times, redeemable ana pay
able in gold, and we oppose the
free coinage of silver and any fur

Other planks demand tne re
tirement of the legal tender notes
favor free raw materials and the
suppression ot trusts, and sym
pathy with Cuba.
The platform concludes with a
compliment to . Secretary Olney,
and commends - to the Chicago
Convention Wm. E. Russell as a

Behold this rum! 'Tis a skull.
Once of ethereal spirit full;
This narrow cell was ine's retreat,
This space was thought's mysterious

What beauteous visions filled this spot!
What dreams of pleasure, long forgot! !
Nor hope, nor joy, nor love nor fear, I
Have left one trace of record here.
Beneath this mouldering canojiy
Once shown the bright and busy eye;
But start not at the dismal void;
If social love that eye employed
II with no lawless lire it gleamed,
But through the dew of kindness
beamed,
That eye shall bo forever bright
When stars and sun are sunk in night.
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready, swift and tuneful tongue;
If falsehood's honey it disdained,
And where it could not praise, was
chained;
If bold in virtue's cause it spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke;
This silent tongue shall plead for thee
When time unveils eternity,
Sav, did those fing-ers delve the mine ?
Or with its envied ruby shine?
To hew the rooe. or wear the gem
Can little now avail to them.
But if the page of truth they sought,
Or comfort to the mourner brought.
These hands a richer need shall claim
Than all that wait on wealth or fame.
Avails it whether, bare or shod,
These feet the paths of duty trod?
If from the hall of ease they lied
To seek aftUction's humble shed?
If grandeu- guilty bribe they spurned,
And honor to virtue's cot returned,
These feet with angels' wings shall vie,
And tiead the palace of the sky.

Cor. Atlanta Journal.
Having been deeply impressed
by the arguments of Judge Crisp,
Bryan, Livingston and especially
the Atlanta Constitution on the
financial issue now before the
people, and being deeply grieved,
shocked and horrified by the stu
pendous loss entailed on the peo
ple of the -South by the "awful
crime of '73," amounting to no
less thau 3, 000, 000, 000 accord
ing to my friend, Mr. Jerry
Goldsmith, in his able paper in
last Sunday's Constitution, I
have changed my views ou the
monejr question, and am ready to
maintain the propositions fol
lowing, either in joint debate or
in newspaper controversy with
all comers I accept their argu
ment, and aree with their pro
posed remedy, as far as it goes
only I don't think it goes far
enough. Lat us have plenty of
remeuy, ia fact, enougla to make
debt and poverty' things of the
past, relies of tho dark ages!--
I am in favor of tbe free and
unlimited coinage of pig iron at
sixteen to one, and caa produce
undoubted authority f.,r the
proposition that such a "course
will "raise prices," put plenty of
"money in ctrcu! anon" and bring
about general prosperity.
Now in the first place, it may
be uiged by soma who do not
understand the subject of stand
ards of value that such au act of
Congress would not raise the
price of pig iron to this level. To
them I reply, "the stamp of the
government ana its "legal ten
der qualities" would instantly
make th bullion value of pig
rcu the same as the mitt value.
"For who would part with an
ounce of this metal for anything
ess than the mint value?" (Bry
an, Jones and Stewart.)
Again, ;t may be urged that
our mints would be overcrowded
with pig iron, I reply, -'That the
price ot pig iron navmg oeen
raised from 11. per ton to a
ratio of 16 to 1 with gold the
world over, no one would care
especially to carry it to the mint,
since all of his pig iron would
briDg that price in the open
market anywhere." (Atlanta Constitution."
Next, it may be urged -that
gold and silver would go cut of
circuuttion. "I reply, "r irst,
this is a mere assumption of the
tools of thy money power, which
thev cannot verity" (Atlanta
Constitution;) second, "Suppose
they did, isn't there enough pig
iron to take their place and give
the people plentjr of money?
(Bryan); and third that "such an
assumption mixes up circulating
medium aud standard ot value
that gold and silver would still
te potential money metals, even
if not in circulation, and would
help to raise prices an.l-i ia m
the general prosperity." (Crisp.)
Then again, iz may be urged
against the pig iron basis tnat
wages would not rise in propor
tion to prices. The reply is
"wages would be compelled to
rise, since no man would oe iooi
enough to work for a dollar a
day, who could make 1,000 pick
ing up old nails and horse shoes
and carrying them to the" mint
for coinage." (Hull.) :
In addition, it may be urged
by the money power that we
could not alone go on a pig iron
basis without an international
agreement, "To such dastards
as dare to lay a limit to the
powers of tbe American, people

The "crime of demonetizing
iron" took place about 2,000
years ago in Grfe?e, when cer
tain goldolators and silverites, in
orde-- to increase the purchasing
power of their ill-gotten wealth,
secretly got the demonetization
act passed in Sparta, and prices
have been going down ever
since. To-day China is the only
country on earth honest enough
to still coin iron, and there the
happy laborer can carry home
the wages of his honest toil in a
wheel bari-ow' (Atiuita Consti
tution.) I have calculated the losses en
tailed upon the honest people of
this world on account of the de
monitization of pig iron, and the
ruinous fall in prices consequent
theroon, but I fear to give tbe
figures, lest a revolution follo w.
However, I'll giva them and the
people can act accordingly. The
loss is estimated pxactiy i?l3.
000,000, 000,000,000,000, 000,000,
000,000,000. (J. V. Goldsmith.)
In conclusion I insist that the
free coinage of pig iron do every
thing that is claimed for silver,
and infinitely more. The people
will be rich and prosperous. The
once poor man can pay all his
debts with his old stove. The
railroads can declare dividends
on old rails', the small boy can
pick up old nails and horse shoes
to support his family. In tine,
povertj and debt can no longer
exist. Alex. P. Hull.
