By Telsgrapb to the New and Observer. i WaSHiKaTOH, Sept 5 Szsajsi--Mr.p Sherman offered a rt solution (which was adopted) requesting (he President to inform the SgpjUe whether the recent treaty with Chiipa, and the amendments adopted by; the; Senate, have been ratified, by the Emperor of China. He added bat from statements made in debate yes terday and the day before it fts manifestly due to tbe dignity oftte Senate and to the regular and ofdetly transsotion of public - ftffi' that! tiha Senate should have this informal ipn from the President in refertnee t$tbe subject niRttor bsfore procfedinp fur ther with the Chinese bill. He hcd that the resolution would be present ed to the President without delayl Mif. Allison presented the coifr enoe report on the army appropria tion bill, showing concurrence in: kll the Amendments except those in 'fft erence to fortifications, etc. There port was agreed to and a hew, confer ence ordered, the conferees on he part of the Senate being Mesirs. Allison, liumb and Gorman. ; The House bill for the relief of he Roman Catholic Church of St- Peter and St Paul at Chattanooga, Tenaj., was passed with verbal amendmejjt. The! Senate then proceeded to $e consideration of the resolution here tofore offered by Mr. Chandler in Re lation to tbe recent election in Lou isiana, and was addressed by Mr. Ps- coe, wno saia mat tne misceiianeo&s undigested matter collected by Chandler and laid before the Senate did more credit to that Senator's in dustry than to his intellect. Whis the Senator from New Hampshire was anxious to provide education for the South, the junior Senator strove to rente the bitterness and ill-will and to create fresh antagonism be tween two races in the South who were, for the most part, Jivine to, gether in peaceful relations. i At the c'ose of Mr. Pascoe'e re marks the Senate resumed considera tion of the Chinese restriction bill No Senator sought the floor. No amendment w.as offered to the bill iir committee, it was reported to th Senate and no amendment was offered there. .The question was announced to be on the passage of the bill oh which yeas and nays (on the demand of Mr. Vest) were- ordered and then Mr. Qebrge rose and said, that he hall ; desired to submit some remarks ; o the bill bat did not . feel very we$ ; today and would like the unanimous oonsent to have the bill g orer till tomorrow. Objection was made by Mr. Stewart and -Mr. George merely said "Very well that is all rigdt," and wa about W proceed with his remarks, When Mil Ucrnerson said that this was the first time within his memory ; that such a request as that of tbe Senatof from Mississippi (so preferred) ha4 been refused. Mr. Stewart mentioned as a iostifil cation for his objection, his under standing that the Senator from Mis sissippi was in faror of the bill, and suggested that he might just as wel make his speech tomorrow, or at any other time. If the Senator wanted to show reasons why the bill should nof pass, he , (Stewart) would interpose! no objection to postponement. Nr. UttUer inquired of Mr. Stewart what reason there was for such great haste that the usual courtesy of the! Benate should be violated in this) par-l ticular instance and the bill railroaded' through.; He would be glad if the Senator from Nevada would give reason for it. Mr. Stewart declared that he was the last man to violate the courtesies! of the Senate. Mr. Sbooner succested that, in view of the statement that the Sena tor from Mississippi - could not pro ceed with his remarks today without pain he would move to postpone the bill till tomorrow. Mr. Stewart Under these circum stances I withdraw my objection, and ask unanimous consent to have the bill taken up tomorrow after morn ing business and continued till the close. .'V Mr. George declined to accept the tardy concession and Baid he would. go on in the best way he could. The tones of his voice, as he commenced his speech proved that his plea of illness was sincere. He opened by referring to the oriticiam of himself and other former slave-holders yes terday by Mr. Teller and reminded that Senator that when . Washington took command of the American army ne was a siave-noiaer, ana that many of tbe men who established tbe gov ernment were siave-noiders repre senting slave-holding constituencies. He ( Mr. George) claimed tbe right of free speech and of free discussion as an American Senator, and the fact Of his having once been a slave' bolder should be no impeachment of that right. The cml war , was over, and a sad calamity it had been to him and bis. If he had one wish above all other wishes since that unfortu nate conflict ended, it had been that American politics and; American statesmanship should be so conducted that the wounds on either side made by that ' fraternal conflict might be healed, But if it were -for the purpose of establishing political inferiority of Southern"' men that war bad been waged, the war might be commenced again, for so long as any decent white man lived at the South he would claim fori its heritage equality With all other American citizens. Coming to the discussions of the treaty, lie undertook to prove the correctness of he statement made by him the other day. (and denied by Mr. Teller) that the lawful introduction of Chi nese into this country was the result of action of the Republican party He stated the history of leg Chinese islation auectmxr the immigration quoted largely from speeches of Republicans in favor of the adraisaion and, naturalisation tf Chinaman vnH paid. There is the record which your party has mad. It stands for iteelf and it cannot be answemd before the American people by the charge that the Senator who brings it before them has been a slave holder. A vote was then taken and was unan imousyeas 32, nays none bat as there was no quorum present and tH prospect of getting one in good tim the Senate at 5 40 adjourned, leaving the Chinese bill undisposed of. HOCBB. On motion of Mr- Sayers, of Texas, the Senate amendments to the forti Boat ion bill were non-oonourred in and a conference was ordered. Mr. Stahl necker, of New Yoik, rising to a question of privilege, seht to the clerk's desk and had read at article in a newspaper intimating that he was the member at whom tbe resolution of inquiry adopted yesteir day, on motion of Mr.. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, - was aimed. If the ree olution, he said, was the statement indicated he most emphatically pro nounced the charges as false in every, particular. He would not dare to trust himself in view of the . place where he stood to express himself in the language which was in hi mind. His reputation was well, known and guarded at home, and he felt that here be had the confidence of his peers. He certainly had no knowl edge of why the article should have been printed or the resolution of fered. It might have been to divert I attention from the pending invests gation aa to the construction of the" new library building. If so, it cer tainly was a very unkind movement. on the part of the opponents of the resolution- He demanded from the Houss a speedy and searching inves-. ligation. I He would be perfectly wil ling to abide by the result, regard less of party or personal feeling..

AT HABBISBDBQ. Dabrisbdrs, Pa, Sept. 5 Desir ing to enjoy an unbroken night's rest Judge Thurman and party kept the hour of their departure from Colum bus to themselves. The private car of President Brice of the Lake Erie and Western railway had been placed at their service and it was attached to the "Pennsylvania special,"; the fast through train on the Pennsylvania road, and the party wai sent along 40 miles an hour. The Newark, Ohio Advocate had made a random state ment that the party mght pass through there at 9 o'clock and a crowd of a hundred or more peo ple was on hand so as to be sure nbt to miss seeing the Judge. He, however, was resting, and after a few calls for a speech, the train moved on. Some fast time was made between Steuben ville and Pittsburg, the train being half an hour. late, and the rear car rocked like an ocean steamer. The thirty miles were made in ; twenty seven minutes. At Altoona about forty railroaders were awaiting the arrival of the train, hoping for, and yet, as they said, scarcely expecting, reception by the Judge owing to the early hour. Fully 150' men at Huntingdon welcomed tbe arrival of the train, but the Judge had not yet awakened and they contented them selves by greeting the priva'e car. At Altoona word was received of a re ception to be tendered at Harrisburg and it became evident that the quiet trip that had been planned could not be made. The party in the private ear consists of Judge Allen G. Thur man, Allen W. Thurman, Allen G. hurman, Jr, Allen O- Myers, Col. VYm. Allen Taylor, Congressman Berry Wilkins and a tepresentative of the Associated Press. The Judge arose and breakfasted heartily soon after 9 o'clock, having passed a pleas ant mght. Mr. ttaatlerlln at Charlotte. The Charlotte Chronicle of yesterday Say 8: Dr. Sander tin n ached tJhar- lotie in due time yesterday afternoon, and when he entered the court house aat night to deliver his address, he had to elbow his way through the crowd, for the house was packed and the aisles were choked up with peo ple. It was one of the largest crowds ever known in our court house. Dr. Sanderlia was introduced by Dr. R. Brevatd, chairman of the Charlo'.te Cleveland and Fowle Club, and pro ceeded to deliver an exceedingly en tertaining speech of over an hour in duration. His delivery is splendid, and he is remarkably happy in the application of his jokes, of which he has a large stock and all are good Dr. Sanderlin in the course of bis remarks dwelt upon the Third party, and de clared that it was doing an absolute injury to the cause of. prohibition in this state, lie put it in such a plain, Clear and forcible manner, that even Third party men themselves would have been convinced by his romarks that the Third party is very badly but of place in the present campaign. Dr. Sanderiin's speech abounded in good points, especially in regard to organization. He spoke at length on this point and reviewed Xhe benehts to be derived from a thorough organi zation of the Democratic forces in every township. In organization lies Our safety. Dr. oanderlin s speech was So highly enjoyed, that when he Closed, the great crowd present, in a unanimous desire to hare more of it, Shouted to him to go on, and the shouting did not cease until Dr. San derlin finally reached for his hat, im plying by this action that if they did hot have enough, he thought that they ought to nave, anyway. Thrre were a number of ministers in the audience, . and all seemed to thor oughly enjoy Dr. Sanderlin's speech. Klnatoa Brirfa. Cor. ol tbe Hews and Observer. KissToir, N. C, Sept. 1, 1888. The county Bepublioan convention made nominations yesterday.

The rain was a great disappoint ment to the ardent friends of Judge Ftwie. Arrangements had been per fected to meet him at Burlington and give him such a greeting as the Democrats of Alarnaoce d em worthy of the standard bearer of the Demo oratic party of North Carolina. It is stated that at least 4,000 people would have been present if tbe weather had been good. After some appropriate remarks by the chairman of the executive com mitter, Col. Dackery came forward and began hia speech by saying h was glad to have an opportunity of speaking to the good people of Ala mance. He was not going to sppeal to thoir passions or prejudices, but to reason and common senso. He was a plain farmer, like most of those pres ent. The times are hard and have been for the last four years. The questions of tbe campaign are grave and tterious ones, and t le people must decide them. He would first call attention to the tariff All know what this is. Th9 government hast) raise dur tag ih year for expenses $300,000, 0O0 Our fathers -said it was better to taisa tbi lax by a duty laid on goods imported into this country than by direct taxation. Henry day was one of tbe greatest men who ever lived This was his doctrine and upon his platform the Republican party stands today. Henry Clay said no people who were strictly an agricultural people would ever be rich in the full sense of the term. If two men on different sides of the road, with tbe same amount of capital and equal advantages in every way, were to begin f aiming, and one should diversify his crops, raise his meat and bread, his chickens and cows, while the other should con clude that by raising all cotton he could buy the nec-ssaries of life, in ten years the first of these men would be worth from five to ten times as much as tbe other. This is a true il lustration of the tariff. We must as a nation be independent. Zeb Vance, my personal friend, urged us to make our supplies at home and sent to England for 40,000 pairs of cotton cards. Mr. C ay said this was all wrong, and that we ought to have our facto ries by the side of our cotton fields. We say the South must diversify its interests. It will give wages to the laborer and this secures a market for the farmer. Not long sgo I w is in New England. I saw what an impe tus had been given to this country by this policy. The country was once poor, but now it is rich. Land is worth from $75 to $100 per acre. There is a ready market for every chicken, pig and lamb the farmer has to sell. We have been told that cot ton was king, but now be must come t down from his royal seat. The total value of all the cotton raised in the United States is two hundred and fifty million dollars, while the income from poultry, eggs and chickens is five hundred and fifty millions. We are for going into the same thing, and instead of wasting our time cursing Yankees for getting rich, we say "Go thou and do likewise." The two leaders of the political parties before the war were Clay and Calhoun. The policy of Clay was as I have in dicated. That of Calhoun was hot to manufacture but to raise negroes, and the ' cheaper you could raise the negroes the bet ter, and thus it is that the North grew rich and the- South poor- I ask my opponent, today the same ques tion which I have been asking wher ever we have been. . What pledges bare the Democrats redeemed which they make to the people T The only thing he can an swer is the passage of the Mills bill by a Democratic House. Gov. Vance went through the entire S'.ate with his red leggod grasshopper, showing it to the people, and promising if the peo ple would elect the Democrats they would sweep from the face of the earth the last revenue officer in ex istence. Have they done it T xhe revenue ts worse today tnan ever before. They promised to lake off all taxes which were burdensome. I contend that nothing is burdensome now. The necessaries of life were never so cheap as now. I read you an article from tbe Nxws and Obsibveb, the eading newspaper of the State. (Here the Colonel got his back up a little, but continued his compli ment to the News akd Ob sbkvxk by saying it was the paper which was abusing him at such a rate) in which tbe editor says thore is no tariff on shoes, cotton- cloth, hats, etc. Col Dockery said we pay 0 few: on anything made in the United States. Coming back to the revenue, what have they donet What can they do,: either through the Governor or tbe legislature ? Nothing. And yet it i a plank of the State platform. But how is it when you. come to the na tional platform where it ought to be mentioned t Not one word is said about it. I will give a bale of cotton if any man will show me the word revenue in the national platform. ; Wbom have the Democrats nomi nated for President! (A host of Democrats answered "Grover Cleve land, the biggest man in the world.") Tbe Colonel said, You may hollow, but I will give you something to hol low for- Fowle is in favor of re ducing, tbe revenue, but Cleveland is against it. (Here be reads from tbe Presidents message.) ance has turned loose his grass-hoppers and says now the people are not com plaining one-tenth as much about the revenue as the miserable way in which it is collected. So you see when Cleveland takes snail Vance and all the Democrats at once sneeze. But my opponent asks why the Republicans did not reduce the revenue. We bad lp ray off debt of hrtt thousand uii'lidu dollars uf.ct the war and could not n-di.ee it N w wo bttj take off the tax u tobac- od aud brandy and if this does not reduce the surplus take it off whiskey also. We had a surplus of four hundred million dollars, looked up by the Re pub licans, said Ransom,' but when Cleveland came in, there was only eight millions. So Ransom either did not know what he was saying or he purposely misrepresented. V Col. Dockery said the Republicans had provided a means of depleting the treasury by passing the Blair bill, by which North Carolina would have received seventy-nine million dollars for school purposes and that the Democrats had three successive times defeated this bill. (He stops here to record the votes of our Senators in favor of the bill.) Col. Dockery sa d in regard to the special land tax that both houses of Congress had passed an act by which the States which had paid this tax should receive a portion of it back; that North Carolina's share would have been $120,000, and that the President carried it fishing and no body had ever heard of it since. On County Government, he said, I am for changing the present system of county government. The people should rule. It was so in 1868 and was changed by the "Ku Klux" in 1875. Let those counties with negro majorities have a committee of audit and finance, and this will rem edy the trouble, and secure our east ern people. "Wtro elact the commissioners, of your counties? They lay your taxes 1 and great is their power. They can de cide a case in court before the judge goes on the bench. We want to go back to first prin ciples. Having spoken forty eight minutes the Colonel took his seat. JUDGB OWLt. At this time the Haw River Band came up in a wagon drawn by four Deautilul horses. Some of tbe officials wanted quiet, but there was no downing them. So the Judge waited till the music and cheering ceased and began his speech by saying : Aly countrymen, if 1 did not appre ciate your treatment of me I should be false to every noble instinct of man's nature. I am a candidate for Governor in obedience to the com mands of the Democratic party of North Carolina- I am especially the wdidate of Alamance for the very liberal support she gave me in the convention. And here I want to eav f there be any honest Republican here 1 do not wish to say anything to wound his feelings, for I am going to be you; next Governor whether you vote for me or not, and after I am inaugurated, as I will be, I want you to say "Judge Fowle treated me kindly, and I was a fool not to. vote for him for Governor. At Siler my opponent wanted the tariff taken off, but today he has changed his mind. He talks about Henry Clay. Who loves him more than I do? In my sitting room is a portrait of this great and good man. Une of the grealest disappointments of my life was Clay's defeat for the Presidency by the State of New York. Henry Clay never, dreamed of any such policy as has been inaugurated by the Republican party.. I will ll- ustrate the policy of the Republican party on the tariff by an incident which you can all understand. A man had three boys. To one he says you must be a farmer; to another, Jou can be a lawyer, and to the third, im, you must be a manufacturer. And now, the old man says to the first two, Jim is going to have a hard time till he gets a start in the busi ness of manufacturing, so we will help him for awhile till he gets on h's feet, and so each of the boys and the old man help him, but in few years Jim is not only better off than 'either of the others, but is worth more than all of them. So the old man decides that Jim needs no more help now, and proposes to let him take care ol himsell. Would it not be a most unreasonable thing for Jim to still clamor for help ? And yet 1 tell you here today, it is no more nor less than the position of tbe Uepublican party. lhe Supreme Court has decided that to levy more taxes than is neces sary lor tne expense or the govern ment is robberv cure and simnle. This cry of the Republican party that the tariff makes men s wages higher is all "bosh. No man, however much his interest is protected, pays more wages than his neighbor who has no protection. My opponent says everything is lower than ever before, and what of that, if they have taken away all of our money ; What if ooru is 50 cents barrel, if you bare not money enough to buy a peck of "nubbins." At the rate at which the people s money is being put in the treasury, in five years our entire circulating medium will be gone. But my opponent says the Repub- lcan party proposes to reduce this by purchasing bonds. And what does this mean? It means that all of our money is to go to New York and other Northern States, for if I were to fish this crowd with a minnow seine I could not find a single, man with ' United States bond in his pocket. We want the people to keep their money and spend it as they choose. I will g:va you another in stance of what the tariff is. Suppose meet a man at the South Carolina line on his way to North Carolina to sell hats. The price of these hats is $2 00, but I say to the man, before you come into North Carolina, you must first pay me 7U cents on each of these hats. I ask you what tbe bat will cost? Evidently it will cost $2 70, an increase of 33 1-3 per cent. This is the tariff in a nutshell- Fel low citizens, it means that every third lick you strike is for some ono else. When you are paid on at mgnt you must give away 1-3 of your money. It means this. Nothing more, nothing less. But for thiB you might have better nouses and more of the com forts of life. Now, my countrymen, we propose to repeal this whole system of rob bery. And what does the party of by opponent propose ? He is like the two boys wno started to go down the Mississippi liver in a boat, and as they went, gliding down the river, all at once the bat struck a "sawyer," putting a bole in the bottom of the Viiat ' That watar hAc-an : trt Mnr in. Inhn amid to Ilenrv. "f5an von trt to Vim "oury, you gw to l ne snore i usury sauu, At is im - possible. See bow the boat is filling up; and wei are bound to sink. John says, "Ihis is a serious matter, and it occurs to me we ought to engage in some religions exercises' "All right," said Henry, "I am glad you thought of it. Lead off, John." "But," said! John, "you know I can't, for I never did prav in-my life." But," said Henry, "don't you see the boat is nearly gone ! Can't you do anything in the way of worship ?" Here John! "caught on." "Henry," he said, "I can do something. Hand me your hat and let me tal e up a col lection. This is the way with CoL Dockery. It matters not what hap pens, be wants to collect more taxes. On county government Judge Fowle said -.! I have no ill feeling to ward the colored man. It has always been my desire to see him improve his condition, but history shows he is not the man to govern this country. If you elect the Republican oartv then your school committeemen, your county superintendents of schools in the eastern counties will be negroes. The beautiful girls I saw at the sea side this summer, many of them teachers, will have to hold their cer tificates at the hands of negroes.
