By Tdesrspk to tta Mewf ftnd Obserrer. ?
WAHnroTOJ(, D. O. Oct. 5 Hocsi
Immediately lifter the reading of the
journal the Houee prooeeded to ytbe
consideration; of pnrate baaineao.
The point of no quortfm was raised i
against the first bill called np Wd
for three qOarters of an hoar the bas
inegs of the Souse was at a standttill.
Howerer, the; motion was agree$ to
for an adjourament from today Until
Monday. Subsequently Mr. Allen of
Mississippi, who had raised the point
of no quorum paid a tribute to his
own amiability of disposition and
withdrew the point and the wheels of
legislation '.. were once more put in
motion and reYolred without friction
until Mr. Kdgore, of Texas, called) up
for consideration the House till
to incorporate the Maritime Csnal
Company of Nicaragua. By the rule
nnder which the House is acting, inve
objections ire sufficient to present
the consideration of any measure,
and as Messrs. Martin, Lanham lnd
Culberson, of: Texas, Lawler, -of - Illi
nois, Fuller, of Iowa, and Butler of
Tennessee, Objected, the bill wsb not
plaoed before the House.
Several private bills having ben
disposed of in committee of the
whole, Mr. MqRae, of Arkansas, called
up the Senate bill to incorporate Jhe
Maritime Canal Company of Nicara
gua. This time the measur was taken
up for consideration. . . '
Mr. Culberson, of Texas, offere an
amendment providing that nothing
in this act shall be held or construed
in any manner to involve the Untied
States in any pecuniary obligation
whatever, other than in respect to
the payment of taxes.
Mr. Fhelan,; of Tennessee, offered
amendments providing that the canal
shall be under the control and pro
tection of the United States in order
that the representatives of all the
North and South American people
may be guarded against any infringe
ment or aggression on the part of
foreign cations ; also that the tills
shall be equal! on the same olass?of
tonnage for the vessels of all nations
except as provided in article 54 of the
concessions and decrees of the &e'
public of Nioaragna to the Nicaragua
(janai association or new xork; also
that the United States government
binds itself ;to protect all rights tof
citizens acquired under said conces
sions and decrees, and guarantees
a neutrality of said canal and its op
eration nnder the terms of sad con
cessions and decrees subject To the
consent , and approval by treaty fpr
otherwise of the countries through
which the canal may be constructed.
Mr. fjulberson opposed Mr JFhe-
an'i
amendinents. If they were
adopted the government would have
to keep a Standing army in Nicaragua
to protect the rgnts oi the corpor
ator. , fc.n C' .
Mr. Phelan reolied that the een-
tleman radically misapprehended the
terms of the amendments. They were
drawn for the purpose of preventing
the result which the gentleman was
apprehensive might ensue. They hid
been drawn' in careful conformity
with "j. utterances of the State de
partment front Grant's adminifltratipn
to tne present tune.
Mr. Fuller, iof Iowa, said the bill
was a- pieces of gigantic legislation.
It was to important that it ihoujd
not be considered on Friday, when 3t
waa axnected that onlv ordinarv nei-
vate bills would be called up, ana at
the time when! there were only abost
sixty members present. He did not
Intend to Permit the bill to gj
through without a o uornm. ;:
Mr. Phelan, in order not to imperii
the passage Of the bill, withdrew his
amendments i and Mr- Culbertsoai s
amendment was agreed to. t
The bill .being in committee of the
whole, the question was put on
porting the bill favorably to the
House; the Tfte resulted 33 to I,
and Mr. Fuller made the point of so
quorum. The! committee then ros.
Mr. Burnes! offered a concurrent
resolution, which was agreed to, for
the appointment of a select joint com
mittee of three Senators and three
Representatives to .investigate the
work 'done on the Washington' aqui-
duct tunnel, the contracts made for
the game, the bidding for and letting
of the contracts, and the compensa
tion paid for tho work.
The ilouse then, at a o'clock, took
a recess till 8 o'clock p. m-, the even
ing session to be for the considera
tion of private pension bills.
We announce with much regret the
death of Capt John W. Taylor, which
occurred at hie residence in Chatham
oonnty, on Wednesday morning. Capt-
Taylor was the father of Mr. Fhuig
Taylor, of this citv. and was one Of
Cdatham s best citizens. He waa
universally 'esteemed as a ceniaE
whole-souled', gentleman of the old
school, and in Chatham county, where
he served six years as Sheriff, he dew
servedly possessed the respect and
and confidence of all, regardless of
party affiliations. True to every trust
reposed in him, faithful to the last
decree in the dischartre of dutv. ab
solutely unacquainted with the sensa
tion of fear, but withal tender as a
woman, kind, amiable and - obliging?
he won easily j and held always the
high regard of those with whom he
came in contact. His death is an irl
reparable loss to his family and
county. Hi' , ' '

It looked here today as if all

Fowle and Col. Davidson. The
speakers were met two miles from
town by. a procession of mounted
men and a splendid Drass Dana ud
reaching the stand which bad been
prepared for the occasion, Judge
Fowle waa presented to the audience
by Col. Tom j Mason in. a manner
which must have been a pleasure and

Fowle spoke for an hour and fort)

tory of the two political parties. Hie
arraignment of the Republican party
for its past sins and crooked ways
was strong and convincing. His dis
cussion of the tariff was simple and

Mockery pretended to be the candi

the best interests of farmers.
Judge Fowle was in fine condition

After the close of Judge Fowle's

held on the 6th day of November
to submit to the qualified voters of
Wilkes the proposition for an exten
sion of time on the $100,000 in bonds
(recently voted for the building of
tSe Wilkesboro road) to the 16th of
Npvember, 1890, conditioning with
said commissioners to deposit as a
forfeit the sum of $10,000, to be sur
rendered to the county in case of a
failure to complete the road in the
tiine specified. The company repre
sented by Col. Andrews also condi
tioned to build a good bridge across
Roddy's river, near Wilkesboro, for
the use of wagons, etc The election
was called. ' The proposition now ie,
that when one-half of the road ia
built between the county line of Sur
ry; and Wilkesboro, and trains running
on the same, then one-third of the
bonds are to be turned over to the
Richmond & Danville Company, and
when the road is completed to Wilkes
boro, the other two-thirds to be de
livered to the railroad. The election
will come off on the same date as the
general election of county, State and

support and co-operation of the can

,: : Ridgeway, Sept. 25, 1888.
In the death of Major Kemp Plum
mer, which occurred at Portsmouth,
Ta , on the 19th inst, "North Carolina
lost one of her truest and most loyal
eons: and here in Warren county, where
he was born and reared and lived the
moBt of his life, the intelligence was
received with the deepest sorrow by
Jus numerous relatives and friends.
He had just passed the meridian of
life, baling fifty-six years old, and was
remarkably young in appearance for
that age.; The writer of this proba-
Diy snew mm neiter, in aii pnases oi
his life, than any one now living, and
can truthfully say that, a man whose
intention9 were more sincere, or who
acted on all occasions more from a
conscientious smse of duty, has not
come under his observation. It was
as a soldier that Major Plummer
displayed the stern and hercio quali
ties which he possessed, and the (State
did not furnish to the late war, for his
rank, one more emcient or distin
guished.) A brief sketch of his mil
itary ciireer will demonstrate this.
The beginning of the war found him
engaged, near Ridge way v in farming
with ms father, the late Dr. ilenry
1. Plummer, who was one of the most
intelligent and probably the most ad
vanced agriculturist in the country.
He already belonged to, a cavalry
company, the Warren Rifles, but the
State 6ot needing cavalry in the first
Hi the,' war, the company was reor
ganized, and tendered1 their services
to the 'Governor as infantry, and be

teers, Co. O, afterwards known as the
12 th N. C. troops. In this company
Were -the very best Hower of the
youthful manhood of Warren county
and it Was largely composed of young
men oi education and wealth. Every
One with experience knows how hard
it is to bring under the iron roles of
war men of that class, but at tbe end
f the first year the company was dis
ciplined in all respects equal to regu
lars. .3 :
Its few survivors will all agree that
to First Sergeant Kemp Plummer
belongs: the oredit of that efficient
condition, which training they neVer
forgot as long as there was one left
to fire a gun. At the reorganization
in 62 he was elected First Lteuten
tint arid a few weeks afterwards the
Company received its first baptism of
Diooa. in tne series oi battles in
defense! of Richmond in '62, which
ended with the terrible battle of Mai
4ern Hill with McClellan's rear guard
and gunboats, the company, having
been greatly reduced by sickness in
the Chiokahominy swamps, carried
into $ction forty-eight rank and file,
0i whom 43 were killed and wound
nineteen bein&r killed. It was at
Malvern Hill that the last of the reg
imental color-guard fell and the col
ors were brought off the held by
Lient.. Plummer, they having been
riddled with bullets and the staff
sb.ot in two.
He marvelously escaped unhurt in
these battles, but came near losing
his life with typhoid fever, which pre
vented bis participating in tbe cam
paigns of the aeoond Manassas, and
first r Maryland, but was with the
company at Fredericksburg and also
at Chancellorsville, where be was
wounded in the head, in the famous
cnarge of Jackson corps against
Hooker s right flank, in which tien
Jackson was mortally wounded. He
recovered in time to join his command
on the march to Gettysburg, in which
battle the 12th regiment greatly dis
nnsruisbed itself, more than any in
Rhode' o famous division, as was pub
Hcly stated by Gen. Rhodes in a speech
to the yegiment-
v 04 the return of the army to Vir
ginia, Lieut. Plummer was made
Captain and commanded the compa
ny in all the engagements of Lee
against Grant from the wilderness
until Grant crossed the James and be
sieged Petersburg, when the regiment
was sent with Earl v to the valley
who after .driving Hunter from Lynch
burg, invaded Maryland lor the third
time' and besieged Washington from
the north side. In all 'of those bloody
and Unequal battles fought by Gen
Early in the summer and fall Of '64,
Capt. plummer bore a conspicuous
part. Afier the battle of Winchester
he was ! breveted Major by order of
Gen. Early and put in command of
tho 23d N. O. Troops, which he com
maaded in the battle of Cedar Creek,
where he was wounded. After his
recovery he assumed command of his
orn regiment, (Major Alston of the
l'ith having been disabled by wounds)
which he commanded till the fall of
Petersburg. On the morning of the
MQRNING. OCTOBER
25th of March, 'G5, in au attack on
the enemy's works at Fort Steadman,
Maj.Plummer received five wounds,
all slight , and on the 2 3 of April.the last
ForbMahone with the 12th regiment,
then; numbering eighty men, he re
ceived a wound in the mouth from a
shrapnel shot, which ended his mili
tary career, as the war had closed be
fore his recovery. Of the ninety
Jighting men which composed Co. O,
color company of the 12th N. C.
troops, which received its first lessons
in war from our deceased friend,
siity-five He buried in Virginia, eigh
teen! or twenty were discharged on
aeoount of wounds and the remaining
half dozen have many scars from gun
shot wounds on their bodies. No of
ficer pr company of the whole Con
federate army can show a better
record.
Maj. Plummer married in 1866 Miss
Annie, daughter of Col. Lsvin Gayle,
of Norfolk county, Va , who, with four
children, survives him. His native nor
his adopted State did not contain
within their borders a more devoted
husband and father, a truer friend or
more; loyal patriot.

WADDELL AMD SANDERLIIT.
BIXQIXO SPEECHES LA8T HIOHT BALEIOH
GIVES TBI CPCAKEBS A GRAND RECEP
TION. .
There were more than a thousand
people at Stronach'a warehouse last
night to hear the ornate and forcible
Waddell, and the eloquent and witty
Sanderlin discusathe issues involved in
the present campaign. There have been
speeches made here before to which
people in large numbers have listened;
but i is not too much to say that the
speakers of last night held tbe atten
tion and deep ..interest of the people
in a manner never surpassed. How
eni for instance, does a speaker
hold the attention of a thousand
people for two hours in such
a war that a pin could be heard
to drop at any time save when
therei arose tremendous applause at
some plain "drive home of facts."
This quietude was the result of the
eagerness of the audience to catch
every word that fell from the speak
er s hps. Then, how manv are there
who j could follow and hold
that same audience as if under a
spell as did Hon. Geo. W. Sanderlin,
who had the listeners alternately al.
most as still as death to catch telling
facts,; then breaking into thunderous
applause, then convulsed with laugh
ter to such an extent as to cause the
great building to shake in sympathy.
It were an impossible undertaking to
do either of the addresses justice with
out giving them in full, which the late
hour at which they closed prevents.
No resume or condensation would
do. The addresses themselves were
condensations of facts with pointed
illustrations, made more forcible by
the happy combination of wit and el
oquence with which they were pre
senter!.
A great many ladies were present
last night, and the speakers gracef ully
acknowledged their presence. The
occasion was a regular rally a maker
oi uemocratio votes and an enthus
ing time generally.

BUS Correspondence. "
WrLXxsBOBO, N. C, Oct. 1888.
The same programme was carried
oat here today as at Taylorsville on
yesterday. If any change, it was that
more slander and abuse was used.
Mr. Kitchin is worrying Dockery &
Co. almost to death. Dockery says
he will lose his right arm before he will
divide time with Kitchin. He also
said at the dinner table today that if
this trick was played on anybody in
the iu&Bi it would cause bloodshed.
He, Settle and Devereux talked to
300 people until dark to prevent Mr.
Kitchin s speaking. He notified the
people be would speak at 8 o clock.
Dockery does not refer to Fowle, but
his fice-dog, Tom, charges him with
receiving $20,000 as bribes and 150,-
000 more in bonds, which he says
bwle sold, and put the money in his
pocket. He charges Merrimon with
drawing all the fraudulent bills and
Kansom with lobbying them through
the legislature. He is a vicious, foul-
mouthed slanderer. Dockery and
Devereux are the meanest and most
unmitigated political falsifiers I ever
heard. They are hacked, however,
by Mr. K.'s presence, and well they
may be. Dockery and his crowd do
not stay to hear Mr. Kitchin but they
hear every word he says. They sat
in forty yards tonight of where
he spoke. They are tbe worst wor
ried and bamboozled set of political
skunks I have ever seen.
Dockery's refusal to divide time
will do the Democrats good. Every
day Mr. Kitchin makes him refuse
the Democratic committee and then
refuse him, and then he offers to
divide time with Dockery when he
speaks. The people want a joint dis
cussion. I do not know how to describe Mr.
Kitchin's speeches. He is giving
them "sheol." He is the boldest
talking man I ever listened to in my
lie. He is tremendous in his de
fense of Democratic men and meas
ures and terrible in hia denunciation
of the falsehoods told by Dockery
Co. In his speech here he
denounced Dockery and Devereux
as liars, slanderers, cowards and
defamers of other men's char
acter, and said that they made
the charges knowing them to be false.
He denounced them as a disgrace
even to the Republican party. Of
their charges against Bain, he said
that they were simply damnable and
infamous, and that no gentleman
would make them or believe them.
Dockery's posing as a farmer was dis
sected and the demagogue waa held
up to the contempt of farmers. Mr.
Kitchin read the record of Dockery
in the convention of 1875. It made
him as mad as a hornet, but he opened
not his mouth. The truth is that
Mr. Kitchin's powerful arraignment
of the demagogues and slanderers is
so true that it hurts and stings. The
people applaud Mr. K. and do not
take on to tbe abusive denunciations
made by the Republicans, and my con
viction is that they are doing tbe
Democrats good. Leading Demo
crats say that Mr. Kitchin is doing
great good, and that Dockery is los
ing by his course. He keeps, Dockery
on the ragged edge of anxiety and
keeps him from saying many things
he otherwise would sav. Dockery is
making weak speeches cannot make
speech. Ilia only stock in trade is
his slander and his false charges.
l wish every man in the State could
hear Kitchin on Dockery and Deve
reux. He completely skins them and
leaves them no ground to stand upon,
ana the people applaud and cheer
with enthusiastic shouts. - Kitchin
can beat tbe State, and he has the
Radicals now worried half to death.
Up to this time he has not spoken
until after Dockery finished because
his appointments bad not been an
nounced. Hereafter he will speak,
after asking for a division of time, to
his crowd while Dockery & Co.
harangue the Radicals. He is doing
great good, and demoralizing the
Radicals. Thev refuse him a division
of time because they know that he
would skin them alive.
Wilkes is going Democratic this
year, and there is confidence in Dem
ocratic ranks. Kitchin inspires
thusiasm and confidence.

Wihston, N. C, Oct. 4, 1888
Mr. Pearson closed his meetings
here today and leaves this evening
for Goldsboro, where he will conduct
a series of meetings. The services
today at the Methodist church were
the most impressive I have ever seen.
Mr. Pearson called upon those who
wanted to make peaoe with God to
come forward and shake his hand ;
and they did go, one hundred and
forty of them old men, young men
of every denomination, young ladiee,
a number of them from the Salem
School ; old ladies, girls, boys peo
ple of all ages and classes went, and
graspea tne nana oi tne great evan
gelist. Mr. Pearson wanted to know
who would come up and shake hands
with him and promise to hold family
prayers. Nearly every married man
responded to the invitation, and when
the husband was absent the wife went
and promised for him. I have never
seen people so thoroughly worked np
to a sense of moral and religious duty.
Mr. Pearson came here to help the
people, and he has done it. Numbers
are on their way to tbe depot now to
try to get an opportunity to shake
hands with him. A purse of about
one thousand dollars was given him
Long may he live to do good, is the
prayer of hundreds of Winston-Salem
people today.

and above all it
Tna Rvpabllcam Tax Rstatadea. Bill.
Firkt, the Mills bill repeals all to
bacco taxes, except on cigars and ci
garettes ; and so does the Republican
Senate bill.
Second, the Mills bill abolishes the
odious and oppressive features of col
lecting the whiskey tax ; this the Re
publican Senate bill fails to do.
Ihird, the Republican Senate bill
provides that alcohol used in tbe arts
shall not be taxed, and the Mills bill
does not so say.
Fourth, the great and fundamental
principles of the Mills bill are to take
the tax off raw material and to tax
the necessaries of life lower than the
luxuries: while the Republican Sen
ate bill ignores those two principles
altogether.
Fifth, the Mills bill u framed in a
spirit of fairness t'o all sections ; the
only two Southern products protected
by the tariff are sugar and rice, and in
these the Senate makes such large
deductions as to show their malig
nancy and spite towards South. Their
bill is sectional.
We present the following resume
of the Republican bill taken from the
New York Times :
Flying in the face of the national
platform, which declared that there
should be no change in the tariff ex
cept toward prohibitory duties or the
reduction or repeal of duties on arti
cles not luxuries that cannot be pro
duced in this country, the Republi
cans of the Senate have presented a
bill that practically cuts the sugar
duty in two, add a few important
articles to the free list, and makes a
number of complicated and incompre
hensible changes in classification and
in the character of the duties levied.
The presentation of the bill is a di
rect and sweeping condemnation of
the platform. Its reduction of the
sugar duties is the surrender of the
principle of the protective tariff.
The amount of reduction of the reve
nue, which with the internal tax-reductions
is claimed by its authors to
be about $75,000,000, is a complete
denial of the statement so recently
and so emphatically made that there
will be no surplus next year. And
while these statements are literally
and obviously true of the bill, the de
tails of it are marked throughout by
that subtle and tricky favoritism to
special interests that has for years
put millions of dollars into the pock
eta of a small, wealthy and powerful
privileged class by provisions the full
effect of which cannot be readily de
tected. It would be clearly a useless
task to analyze the Senate bill as if it
were a imeasure of intended legisla
tion, since there is no hope and no
intention of passing it, and yet oar
readers will be interested in so much
of an analysis of it as will serve to
show its real character, the motives
that have inspired its preparation,
and the evasive and hypocritical
methods that have been pursued in
framing it, as they have been pursued
in every tariff measure enacted or
proposed by Republicans for the last
fifteen years at least.
About the only portion of the bill
that can lay any claim to be an honest
effort at a reform of the tariff abuses
ia the extension of the free list.
The surrender of the long-maintained
and obstinate attempt to "foster" tbe
jute product in the. United States is,
like the redaction in sugar, an aban
donment of the principle of protec
tion, and, like that also, is due to the
fact that the interest fostered is in a
hopelessly Democratic section of the
country, and a like comment is sug
gested by tbe repeal of the duty on
the lower grades of molasses. With
these provisions, commendable ii in
consistent, there is a curious item of
the repeal of the duty oi flu per
pound on opium for smoking, equal
to 110 per cent., and yielding some
$550,000. To what this is due we
cannot imagine, and we should say it
would be received with approval only
by the hated Chinaman.
When we come to the changes in
the .provisions of the ta ff left in
force it is obvious that the most im
portent, as well as those most incon
sistent with the principle of reform
partially adopted in the free list and in
the reduction on sugar, are the in
creased duties on wool and woolens.
Here the protectionist proclivities of
the Senators come out strong, though
not strong enough to suit the veteran
claimant, Mr. Sherman. There is a
considerable increase proposed in all
classes of wools. . w
We thuB have an increase of duties
on an important material of manufac
ture of at least $1,526,000, and pos
sibly of $2,500,000. And with this
atrocious weight added to duties now
yielding only from $5,000,000 to $6,-
OOU.UOU, the insatiable Uhio senator
ts not satisfied, but "hopes against
hope" that the industry and com
merce of the countrvwill be still more
heavily burdened.
On woolen goods there ia also pro
posed a grievous addition of duty, fall
ing, aa Republican burdens generally
do I ail, most heavily on those used by
the less wealthy classes. Thns on all
woolen cloths and shawls valued at
between 40 cents and 69 cent
pound there is added a tax of 5 per
cent cut valorem; between 60 cents
and 80 cents, 6 cents a pound and 5
per cent ad valorem; above 80 cents a
pound 5 cents a pound is added. Of
these cloths and shawls we import
about $10,500,000 worth. By a cru
elly ingenious grouping the tax
on all flannels, blankets and hats
of wool valued at between 60
cents and 80 cents a pound
ia increased 16 cents a pound,
and 5 per cent, ad valorem, while the
tax on these articles costing above 80
cents is only advanced 5 cents
pound. In the same spirit, and
the same tender regard for the
era of fine goods, and tbe same
spirit toward those who can
only the coarser'goods, women
children s dress goods valued
over 15 cents per rquare yard are
taxed 20 cents more a pound and 14
per cent, more in the ad valorem rate.
" w Ihe reduction on
sugars ia least on the higher grades
that come in direct competition with
refined sugars, and leaves the great
Sugar Trust unharmed; the reduo
tion on structural iron and steel is
only 12 per cent., leaving the duty
still 90 per cent, and prohibiting au
serious competition with the Beam
day at Peteraburg,af ter having retaken
NO. 85
Trust; and generally, while this Re
publican bill in its free list and its
reduction of the sugar tax gives up
the protection principle, in the other
parts ox me Dill it is adhered to with
more than usual arbitrary favoritism
for the rich and indifference to the
poor.
According to the estimates made
by the committee, the bill provides
for total reduction of about $75,
000,000, made up approximately ta
follows: Sugar, $27,75,000; free list,
$6,506,000 ; tobacco, (internal reve
nue) $24,500,000; alcohol in the art,
$7,000,000; other reductions in cus
toms, $8,000,000.
