IEEE COINAGE Or SILVER.
There are those who favor free
coinage of silver because others do.
IT here are others who oppose it because
others do, neither knowing whether it
j would le a benefit or injury.
I Prior to 1873 all the silver presented
'. at the United States mint was coined
for the owners, no matter who they
were. Gold is still coined tlyit way.
ir a time after the demonetization no
silver was coined or, at best, only lim
"h ited quantities. TFlieTrade Dollars"
were bonght upit 80 cents by ' private
individuals and taken up by the gov
ernment at their face value 100 cents
j- on the dollar. More recently silver
lias been coined more largely, amount
ing to from $2,000,000 to 4,000,000
per month.
The contraction . aLs that were
passed after silver was demouetizeil
ffnade money scarce and values depre-
. Iciated. . I t-hs?s had the result of con
scontrating money ih banks. Free
. co"n age ii right. As long-as silver is
one of the metals used in making
' money, the coinage should be free like
the coinage of gold. h -

SENATOR COKE ON CLEVELAND.!
In the U. S. Senate ou lhe 20th pf
A pril last,. Sen atbr fiieh&rd Coke,
made n poech". on free tfoitragB kof ; sil
ver, in which he showed up the record
of Cleveland on that question. Th f
Charlotte Observer may ask why the
Democratic Seifators didn't rjfute the
charge" sMid bring Senatorj Coke to lhe
bat. .No doubt the Observer will pro
nonce it a "JibelT for that is a favorite
word with it, but the speech stands on
record. The .VYatchman will have
something more onlthis line soon.
Senalpr Coke said: . i !
The executive department ,f the
government, iiY all its branches, from
HayeV admiuiitration to Harrison s,
Including Cleveland s, has been thor
oughly and completely under the. con
trol and influence and dictation of the
great capitalistic combination which
has just scored another victory against
lhe people on the silver issue. All the
administrations 'Made bitter, savage
war on silver and left no means untried
to discredit and break it down t and
debase., it-, .;Nobixly uivf e, b&v j jlr;'
Cleveland stood oh the silver question
until after he was elected, and he dom
mericed t war-on it before his inaug
uration in a letter addressed to a 4oin
mittee of members of the House
of Reprcsntatives (one hundred
of them) who were deputed to cohfer
with him on the subject. All of these
administrations from the president
down to the lowest reporting official df
the treasury department," in messages
and reports denounced silver coinage,
urged its abandonment,' denounced the
$340,000,000 of -legal-tender notes as
a debt df the govern meht which should
be paid and the notes taken out of
circulation, retired and cancelled al
though not a cent of interest runs on
them; advising the country that geld
and national bank notes should be our
only circulating medium, with subsi
diary silver coin for purpose of change.
This is-the feast to which our people
were invited. in" response to theiroft-re-peated
demand for free silver coinage,
for a perpetuation of the legal tender
note issue, and such other increase : of
circulation as could be made in view of
the money famine from which they
were suffering. ' . ;
An Out and Out Lie.
Capt. John Beard was circulating on
the street this morning that the Demo
cratic rally at Franklin Academy Stttur
davn'mhtVesulted; unfavorably. Hesavs
"a mairtold roe" that there were about
se veil ty-five perspns present, that Lee
B. Ovennan spoke about an hour and a
half and then Mr. Shoaf, a People's parly
man, spoke lialf ah hour. There was noJ
shouting until Mr. Shoaf spoke. After
he was through Mr. A. H. i5oyden rose
to organize a Democratic clubr when all
left, but five. He talked loudly about
Franklin being the banuer township and
exulted over what he pretended was -a
Democratic defeat. NoV we presume to
brand thisas an out and out lie. The
rally ftas a graud success for Democracy.
There was a good gathering of Demo
crats:Hon. L. S. Overman- and I Col.
F. E. Shober both made strong Demo
cratic speeches, and ''Mr. Khoaf, a Peo
ple's party man $"did not speak." "Boyden
did not make a speech but a good Dem
ocratic club was organized Hon. L. 8.
Overman says the meeting was highly
satifactory and that if all the pi ecintsare
like Frauklin the county will give 1000
majority for the democratic ticketi. : So
far as he could learn all who attended
the rally were thorough Democrats ex
cept one: lhe meeting was a love feast
for Deri-ocracy and not of the People's
party.
A REPLY.
Editor Watchman : The above ar

the product of the fertile brain of the

reporter was that F. E. Shober, L. S.
Overman, Baldy Boyden and Sheriff

' MyJ3ear Sir:--I can hardly afford
the time, but I will trv and -write you
a few; lines to let you know how poli
tics are in this sectinn. I have con
eluded that you are badly deeeiyed as
jyou say that you are receiving letters
from all parts of 4 lie 7th district which
bonviuce you that yon are the choice
of the. great mass of the people for .the
United States representative next term
Now, my friend, are you riot ware of
.. - . . ... -! 1
he fact that the people nave organ izea
and are carrying on the largest school
that ever existedMn America, and don't
vou know that thev 'have the most
honest and skillful men in the United
States employed as teachers; and don't
vou knaw that the chief aim and ob
ject of this school is to. teach the masses
the most rigid and economical; form of
government? Have you not yet laid
hold on the fact that the people have
conceived that both the democrats and
republicans have joined hands of fel
lowship, and that they are pulling to
gether as a yoke of steers, drawing
their load to Wall street and the money
power, and can it be that you have not
found oat that the -people pan't be
fooled any longer, and that the Peo
ple's party is destined to sweep over
this great nation, of ours ; as the waves
do over the mighty sea, and don t you
know that just such a thing is needed
to saye this great nation from terrible
ruin? Mi
Now, if you don't know these things
you are not a representative of the
people as yon claim to be. IF! you sire
not aware of the fact that the great
majority of the people in Gold Hill
township have already announced them
selves" People's party men, and further
more, that the masses of the jjeopl6 lii
the 7th district are fully determined to
down the ,old plutocratic democrat
and republicans. I thinlr.yoli had k
well go on and sleep vbu'r Pap but, and
some time in November we will come
round and wake you up and show you
how it is.
But, to be candid with you, I be
ieve that there are enough old pluto
cratic democrats iij the 7th district to
renominate you for Congress but it
will take all of the crowd in some
parts of the country to make rip the
