CAROLISa's FATOBITioS
Only "Oat Zeb" can draw
such a
as assembled mastronacQ s
warehouse last night. A hour be
fore the time for BpeakingJbe crowd
began to pour in, every &djr being
anxious to get a front sea.
It takes an immense csowd to fill
Stronach'a warehouse, cfiis of the
most spacious halls to rai found in
the State, but at 8 o 'cioek.il was full
to its utmost capacity, Ifnd many
were BtftDdicg. Almost Ijha'f of the
number; were ladies. The audience
was the largest which b9 been as
semble io. this city sinc the State
Democratic Convention. and num
bered several thousand people.
When the Senator entered tumultu
ous burst of applause weti up. He
was escorted to the rostrusi amid con
tinued cheeriDg. Messrs. R. H. Bat
tle, Spier Whitaker, N. B. Broughton,
E. 0. Sibitbund Col. Tbofias S. Ke
nan took setts on the rostUtn.
Mr. E. C. Smith pre&nted the
Senator, saying "lie needlijno intro
dactiou you all know hiiir'
Toe Senator in beginning his speech"
said that Once more the; lime bad
nearly approached for thess 'people of
this country td choose thePresidenw
and other national and Stfe officers
The election this year waspp b one of
the moet important in the; history of
the country. The Senator sa4 he would
not dwell upon State issues- The
Republicans of today wertS "the same
old set1' tht misruled tip State in
1868-b'j) They had put atore sanc
timonious air but the;were no
more 1 te - be trus.ed. jy letting
the Republicans get ijto power
the people-' of North Carolina would
lay themelvca liable to tup payment
of the'.! iniquitous bonds vhich had
been eaddlfd upon them 1 1868 69.
Without lingering upon fcate issues
the Sfnator proceeds 1 to review
the past four years rjf NatSSnal Dtm
ocratii siiprt m icy. He- referred to
the fa!e prophecies rnia y Repub
lican 3eniagogU'-!, of theligasters,
jvhich would come should t Demo
crats come into power. "Sut said
the Sejia'br, after four jeaof Dem
ooratio administration we ifall here.
You. are all here and I an 11 here
and the negroes a-eall herelap healthy
and asi'jassy' as evsr." Nprjjdy has
come to grief but Republici office
holders who have fattened on the
publto 1 treasury for a quarter of a
c.-Dtury."!5 I I
, He ircoeeded to speak of ihl presnt
system of federal taxation. Tfe Sena
tor illustrated the fallacy of prtec'ion
aid characterized it as ' ixod, un
disguised and scandalous perversion
of juaice,n It was equivalent to a
shoe toahufacturer in this Country
demanding a heavy duti fjto be
placed ' upon imported ehot s
in order that he might put ftb; price
in, his shoes up on home cpnfumerB.
President Cleveland had itdlised a
reduction of the present fsy&em of
taxation si as an evil whlchf would
finally produce a financial crisis in
the country, and he had been Issailed
by every organ of protection in the
land. f
The;' Senator showed thef increased
prosperity of manufacturers wen the
tariff was reduced during the time
from 850 to 1860. He said; there
was no fear of the manufactuf jea dy
ing by a redaction of theftaff. If
they were that easy to die fhesooner
t-faey died the better. At 5 any rate,
he was willing to risk & re
duction from 47 to 2pe cent
aod then if they didn't die' ha; would
concl ode that they were all lijing as
usual and try a little more redaction.
The manufacturers appealed fca pro
tective laws in the name pf the
workiegman because they knw that
there waa bo public sympathy for
capital. But ' they wished t& make
the olaims of the workingmen a
pretext lb carry their own ends-
I be average labor-cost of American
proa nets was 21 per cent, Tn tanfr
for the benefit of the wprkfigman
was 47 per cent. The other S26 per
cent - went into the manufacturers
pocket, x .
- The labor-ost of a ton of pig iron
is $2 46V The duty on! a ton of
foreign pig iron is $6. 72. "Andivhere"
ca:a ine ! senator "aoefj that
difference 6f $4 26 got' Not
to the laboring man, but to tKe man
ufacturer, the labor coBiiof ton of
steel, rails is fl.25 Thei tarT on a
ton of steel rails is $17. fTheC$12 75
goes into the manufacturer's toocket
And yet if the laboring man about
whom the manufacturer raisecpsucb a
hue and cry, made any proijjble, he
was locked out and bis place supplied
by foreign j labor. And foil these
workingmen the farmer of thf coun
try was taxed 41 per osnt or every
tool !he use4 and 87 per clnt cftt every
wool bat he wore. Said the Sena
tor :' "This is the grandest Scheme
of hypocrisy and villainy 0iat l?a8 ever
perfttiated' The present prescdentiM
candidate of the Republican party
had voted' fourteen times Against
the res' riction of immigraiion of
Chinese laborers those "pi-taiied,
almond eyed whelps that wofked at
home for eight cents a day." :
The Only way high tariff fleeted
the working man was td; his injury.
It did not ; increase his wages, but
made him pay more for he
bought, j I , I
The Senator showed teat vges in
creased rs tariff (ocreaeei ..The
'ar ff laws of all couiitr leaf proved
tbi . Ij hi gland where tlie tariff
was at nerd the wages o worngmtn
were highest. The Senator Ishowed
that the tariff laws did not cjtct the
vast majority of American borers.
Carpenters, blacksmith!, t , got
hipher wages than factory hands.
' The Senator produced pam
phlet wmcn was Deing circu
lated by Republican forotefitionifets
setting forth protectioni doctMne. It
bore the picture of the! brawny arm
of a blacksmith with anfuplied ham
mer. But the blacksmith werked in
an unprotected afocation
Sen-
ator did not believe the American
workiegman could be fooled thtis.
The kind of tariff laws that this coun
try needed were laws that would im
pose the lighter tax upon necessi
ties which were used by the poor aad
the heavier tax upon luxuries which
were used only by the rich. The wool bat
of the farmeT was taxed 85 per oent
and the beaver of the dude 50 per
cent. Wool clothing was taxed on an
average of 69 per cent but silks and
satins 50 per cent- Steel was taxed
47 per cent, gold 25 per cent
If the workingman wants a drink of
North Carolina whitky he pays on it
a duty of 400 percent., but "tnaut
Qod and the Republican tar.il law tc
nutmeg-which he grates in on tup (1
it is free."
The Senator read figures showing
that the present tariff laws imposed
throughout heavy tax on necessities
and light tax on luxuries.
He said the Democrats had made
persistent efforts to equalize this,,un
just system, but the Republicans had
each time arrayed their solid strength
against it. But when Allen Q. Thur
man bad the deciding vote in
the Senate there would be an end to
some of these wrongs. (Here there
was tremendous applause ) In clos
ing, the Senator said he knew . the
people of North Carolina were lovers
of fair play. The Democratic palfty
in the four years in which it had
been in power had not had time to
inaugurate all the reforms which it
wished, but Le believed the people
would givo :hera another four yearf;
knowicg that they would redeem all
tber pledges. He believed that
G rover Cleveland would be the next
President of the United States, and
that Daniel Q. Fowle would be the
next Governor of North Carolina.
"And pow" said the Senator, '.'n
conclusion I" wish to give you all a
piece of advice. Say jour prayerp,
obey your wives and vote the Demo
cratic ticket."
When the Senator closed a perfect
storm of applause aecendfld.
Cheer after cheer went , hp
while hundreds 'pressed around tho
gray haired Senator to shake his
hand. '
The general comment was that it
was the strongest speech made in
Raleigh during the campaign. The.
Senator struck a sledge-hammer blow
which will do itb work and which will
cot be forgotten.
While, the Senator was speaking it
waa a grand sight to look over the
sea of upturned faces eager for every
word that fell from the lips of Noitli
Carolina greatest and most beloved
snn. Seldom has a speaker in Ral
eigh ever had Bucb a crowd to do
him honor.

WAS PRESIDENT GARFIELD
"A British Free Trader,
Democratic Hessian ? "
James A. Garfield, July 13, Unless the tariff men take heed,
unless they consent to a rational and ron.sil r:te ndn'stinrnt of the tariff,
such as only can be made by the full ligbt that a careful statistical study
of the subject will bring. 1 fenr from them, more than from any other
source, a reaction which will brim; u by and by into free trade and all its
consequences of evil to the manufacturing interests of the country.
I desire to say that, in my judgment, it is not the best mode of defend-"
ing a tariff to denounce every man who does not pronounce the shibboleth
after our fashion as an enemy of the tariff.
James A. Garfield, April 1, 170 : Duties should be so high that our
manufacturers can fairly compete, with the foreign product, but not so
high as to enable them to drive out the foreign article, enjoy a monopoly
of the trade, and regulate the prices as they please. This is my doctrine
of protection. If Congress pursues this line of policy steadily, we shall,
year by year, approaeh more nearly to the basis of free trade, because we
shall be more nearly able to compete with other nations on equal terms. I
am for a protection which leads to ultimate free trade.
James A. Garfield, May 18, 1872 : And I know, moreover, that forfcS
nearly two years the wholesale price of American salt in Toronto, Canada,
waa a dollar lower per barrel tnan the same salt was selling for on the New
York side of the lake. That is we produced it, shipped it across, iaying
whatever portage,; freights and transportation were required, and then
sold it to our Canadian neighbors at a dollar per barrel less than It was
sold to people on our shores. Certainly, gentlemen will not want a duty
continued that enables that thing to be done.
James G. Blaine, Secretary of State, 1881 : The hours of labor in the
Lahcashire mills are 66, in the Massachusetts mills 60 per week. The hours
of labor in the mills in the other New England States, where the wages
are generally less than in Massachusetts, are usually 66 or 69 per week.
Undoubtedly the Inequalities in the wages of English and American
operatives are more than equalized by the greater efficiency of the latter
and their longer hours of labor.

Pittsbcbg, Oct 19. It is reported
here that the Cincinnati express on
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was
wrecked near Washington, Pennsyl
vania, this morning. Three persons
are reported killed and a large num
ber injured.
A dispatch from Washington, Pa ,
sijt8 the accident waa caused by the
train running into an open switch.
The train was completely wrecked.
The engineer, fireman and two others
were killed and fifteen injured.
Among the seriously irjjured were
Stephen Collins, superintendent of
the Pittsburg postoffice, and Capt.
Batchelor, also of this c.ty. Partic
ulars of. the accident not yet received-
Another dispatch eays the cannon
ball express on tin Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad which left Cincinnati
last night, ran into an open switch
near Washington, Pa , depot about
1) o'clock this morning and was pre
cipitated over a trestle a distanco of
ten feet. The tiaiu wa? running at a
high rate of speed aud was almost
completely wrecked. Engineer Jas.
Noonau and a passenger named
Newell, of Wheeling, were instantly
killed, and about twenty were in
jured a number seriously.
Only engineer Noonan was killed
outr:ght, but fireman Brown and baggage-master
Henry and a colored pas
senger are likely to die. Ninteen
passengers were more or less badly
hurt, but not likely to die. As stated
before, the accident was caused by a
misplaced swith. The train jumped
the track and ran inU) the "Y ' near
the depot. The curve was eo short
that the train could not keep the
track and it jumped over the trestles.
Mtg MerllUa."
Last night aa cn the two nights
previous, the Metropolitan Theatre
was filled with a cultured' audience,
who were anxious to see Januaschek
in tbe role of "Meg Merilies," that
weird and interesting character of
Scott's Guy Mannering. It is super
fluous to aver, for the information of
the public, that she excels in her
special roles. She has not hesitated
to attempt the most difficult, and she
has succeeded in all. The casual
reader of Guy Mannering would won
der how anything like a presentation
t it on the stage could be successful
and interesting, ana especially now
the weird character of Meg Merilies
eould be sustained with naturalness.
The solution to the wonder is sim
ply to see Januaschek in that
role
it
is
clear demon-
stratum of the view that any
thing apparently difficult to perform
is the greatest success when succese
fully performed.
The presentation last night was the
last of three night's here, all of which
have been generously supported and
appreciatively received, lhe support
of Januascheck ia exceptionally fine
and ruraerically large. The company,
perhaps, stands at the head of any
now traveling in the United States.

II11TOK VKCk'l SPEECH.
Senator Vance spoke last night to
an audience which filled to ovet flow
ing the largest auditorium in the city;
he was welcomed as it has been the
privilege of few men to be welcomed
in North Carolina and tbe sentiments
to which he gave utterance were in
full keeping with the honor thus done
him. His effort was mas'erly. He
made the iniquities of the high tariff
system as plain a the day, and
aroused the enthusiasm of his hearers
in behalf of good government and
the continued rule of the white man to
a degree rarely witnessed. He showed
the utter falsity of the RepuLl can plea
of protection, and made it clear that
nothing is protected but tbe
Northern monopolist and bond
holder, who pocket enormous
illegitimate profits and bjnuses at
the expense of the people as a whole.
A report cf the speech, however,
is given elsewhere. We will not,
therefore, go into the details with
respect to it. We desire simply to
place on record our sense of the
superb character cf the tffort. It
was sure'y one of the finest addresses
ever delivered by our( illustrious
junior Senator aud than this we
could not give it higher praise. It
was in all respects wortby of the re
putation of Vance, and produced a
marked effect. It will bring forth
much good fruit in November.
Vasce is simply incomparable, in
imitable. The words "Our Zeb" ex
press the sentiment of the people
with respect to him. He is our own.
He is great.. We love and admire and
delight to honor Lnm.
It is given to few men to dwell in
the hearts of a people as Vance dwells
in the hearts of North Carolinians,
and there are few men as worthy to
dwell in the hearts of a people as
Vance.
Fob strength in presenting his ar
gument, for apt illustrations, for di
rectness and point, no other man ap
proximates Senator Vance.
Thb people delight to hear nee
because he feels like I hey feel and
embodies their .-entiments in his terse
sentences.
TheeeV none like Vance after all.
He is a power for the people's rights
now as he has ever been.
Vance surpassed even himself

He divided time with A. M. Moore.
Esq., Republican State elector. Sted
man achieved a complete and ac
knowledged triumph. His speech is
said by good judges to be the grand
est piece of oratory ever heard here.
He completely captured the large au
dience. His tribute to Judge Fowle,
and especially 'o his heroic courage
in defending civil liberty against the
tyrannical acts of Gen. Ruger, was
simply grand and indescribable. Thic,
as well as every portion of his speech,
elicited enthusiastic applause. But
when he suggested a' fitting inscrip
tion for a monument to Judge Fowle
commemorative of his defense of
civil liberty, the enthusiasm knew no
bounds. Handkerchiefs were waved
by both sexes, bats new into the air
and were twirled on canes, and the
applause continued, and was re
newed again and- again before the
Governor could proceed. As soon as
he closed the vast crowd rushed to
him, ladies and gentlemen, and shook
hands with him, while u -fires lit up
the town m his honor. i;e Demo-

A feature of tie storm was the effect

smashed except tho big one, and the
waves, driven by the ternfio wind,
sent their spray to the top of the high
tower. The signal service man said
the storm was of unexampled violence.
The rainfall amounted to almost an
inch and the hailstones were excep
tionally large, especially for the fall
of the year and the evening at that.
The barometer and thermometer made
many unusual shifts, and altogether ;
the day was uncxplainable. During
