Bf WILLIAITI H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Friday Morning, Aug. 28, 1891 A SIDE ISSUE. I In his opening speech in the cam-1 oaisrn in Ohio. Mr. McKinlev SDread I himself on the free coinage question, his purpose being to put the Demo crats on the defensive and make that the issue in the contest. As it is simply a State election, the discussion of the silver question or the tariff question or any other national-question seems to be some what out of place, but the custom has been prevalent for some time to discuss national questions in State and even county campaigns, and the Ohio campaigners are simply fol- practically combining against Rus lowing the custom. Mr. McKinley I sia, and the same time Dermittinp- a is shrewd in playing the silver game, or any other game that might divert the attention of the people from the tariff, which is one of the subjects that he don't cafe to discuss more than he is absolutely compelled to. In view of the fact that there is such a difference of opinion among the Democrats of that State on the coinage question, and such strong opposition in the convention to in corporating the coinage plank in the platform, it is unfortunate, perhaps, that it was incorporated for it gave the Republicans a chance to make a leading issue out of something which is really but a side issue, and one in which there is no principle whatever -involved, the only question in it be- ing'jWhether or not there is a suffi cient volume of money in circulation and if not whether all the silver pre sented at the mints should be coined into currency, or only a stated por tion of it. The free and unlimited coinage advocates insist that all should be; others that only a part should be. They both agree on the coinage but" differ as to the amount, so that it is not a question of princi ple, but only of the quantity to be coined between them. Mr. McKinlev and those. agree with him believe in the small er amount, to keep the volume of currency down, prices down and in terest up, while the free coinage men believe ,in the larger amount to in crease the volume of currency, put prices up and interest down. All this clap trap about "honest" money is the thinnest rant especially when it comes from treasury looters like McKinley and men of his school who were never honest in anything of a political character. -They are not honest in their op- pubiiion io iree coinage now any more than they were when they got off the same kind of rot when ' op posing the remonetization of silver andthe resumption of silver coinage. They contended then that silver was a base metal, a mere commodi ty, to be bought and sold like iron, wheat or corn, and that to coin it and restore it to the full dignity of money would be ruinous. Notwith " standing their; sombre predictions and the amount of silver that has been coined since thenlverdol- lar to-day is quite as respectable as the sold dollarrvrtU be received into" as good society will go as far, buy showing there is something needed - j': j-vi- ".AM il'hAcMM ftnnmv nf hrnrinrflniV-Vsind J jo1j - QOliar. y issue, wnicn 100ms up m im-1 oortance above all others, and the one which the cute Mr. McKinley is trying to evade by bringing his silver rlndce to the front so earl v. in the campaign, is the tariff issue, in which every man, woman ana cnua is in terested to a greater or less extent, to what extent it is impossible to tell, for we can only figure on it ap proximately, j It is estimated that the goods pur chased by the people of this country cost them annually $600,000,000 more than they would cost if there were no protective tariff. Estima ting the average family at five per sons this would be a tax of $50 im posed on every head of a family, for the benefit of certain favored indus tries which have no more claim on paternal favor than any other indus- try. The population of Ohio is 3,672,316, which makes her propor- tion of this tax $36,723,160. Mr. McKinley is appealing to the farmers to! stand by him and the "honest" dollar,, although they are the heaviest losers by the tariff bill of which he was the chief architect and the leading champion. The $10 per capita does not express what they have to pay, for nearly every thing - whichi the. farmers have to buyanduse is taxed and pays the heaviest rate of tax ation, so that their per capita amounts to perhaps twice as much as that of any other class of our people. Put a $100 head'tax on the family of every farmer in Ohio and how much would they have out of their present wheat crop? Put at the lowest estimate a tax of $120, 000,000 on the farmers of the Uni ted States, and how much would they have left out of their present wheat crop? The citizen, but espe cially the farmer citizen, who per mits himself to be diverted from the tariff by the silver coinage dodge or any other dodge, is a gull of the first magnitude, who will show himself sadly in need of a guardian MINOR MENTION. That Member of the Prussian Parliament who is advocating a re duction of - the standing armies of Europe proposes to begin at home and suggests the re-cession of Alsace Lorraine to France on condition that France join Prussia, Austria and Italy in a league for the preserva tion ot the peace of Europe, thus general reduction of and removing the. necessity for large standing armies in any of those countries. From a money standpoint Germany could much, better surrender Alsace and Lorraine than to holdthem. The keeping up of a great army made necessary by the enmity of France, and her determination to re cover possession of these two provinces when the opportunity pre sents has entailed an expense on Germany amounting to more than the . "indemnity exacted from France, and at the present rate of expenditure it will not be long before another thousand million dol lars will be added. And this rate of expenditure must be kept up while Alsace and Lorraine are held or until France is so badly used up that she will be no longer formidable. There cession of these provinces, which can never be Germanized would remove the only obstacle to reconciliation between Prussia and France, and would relieve them and other pow ers acting in conjunction with them of the heavy burden of maintaining miuieness, wun gun in hand, so to ; speak, the immense armies now necessary. Among the various schemes sug gested for helping the cotton grower in the depressed condition of the cotton market, a writer in the Mont gomery, Ala., Advertiser suggests that the expenses of handling the crop be cut down all around, that the commission merchants and ware housemen reduce their charges, that the railroads reduce the transporta tion rates, that the ginners charge less for ginning, and that the prices paid for picking be reduced. He puts" the net proceeds of a 500 pound bale of cotton at $30.00, and the cost ; of pick ing, ginning, baling and putting in market at $15.60, leaving the planter $14.40 on the bale, out of which must come the cost of cultivation, pay f er his own time, interest on the land, farming implements, stock, &c, which will leave very little out of the $14.40 as his net gain, if it axes tnree acres of land on the aver age in that State to make a bale of cotton, tms gives tne couon grower a return of 84,80 -. pm raising or gourd raising would pay better than that. With such a handling to make the cotton crop 6 p.y m wauoiuo. A numDeroi veterans 01 tne i?ea era! Army have organized an asso ciation in Washington the objects of which is to check the pension abuses. They claim that , one-third of the names on the pension rolls have no business there, that there are men drawing pensions who never saw thirty days service, that there are men who were dishonorably dis charged who are drawing pensions," and that men who are in the service of the Government, drawing large salaries, are also drawing pensions, while there are thousands who are entitled to pensions who do not re ceive one-half as much as they are" justly entitled to. They believe that there should be both honesty and fair play in the pension business and that the derserving soldier should not be deprived of his deserts, to put money in the pockets ot pension agents, frauds and bummers. . THE PECAN. A Haleifih Correspondent Tells How They Thrive in Wake County. Raleigh, N. C, Aug. 26, 1891. Editor Star t The question of raising Pecan nuts successfully j in this State has been discussed in the columns of the Star lately, and several sections of the State having been heard from, I venture to give the experience of this locality in ex perimenting with this tree. My father, the late Dr. R. B. Hay wood, planted two Pecan trees on the lawn in front of his residence aDout the beginning ot the war or perhaps a year before ; they were grown from the nut and transplant ed. These trees are now very large and vigorous and can hardly be im proved on as shade trees. They bear nuts every year, some years" the yield being three or four bushels but in other years it is quite scant; it we have a late frost it cuts short the crop but there are always some nuts on the trees. Our experience is that they begin bearing in about ten or twelve years. There are also pecan trees on the premises ot Messrs. B. P. Williamson, C Bruce Wright and A. W. Haywood. My father planted six or eight pe can trees on the east side of Capitol Square about fifteen years ago, and they are also thriving well. If I mis take not Mr. J. N. Holding planted about two hundred of these trees on his place in this county in 1885, but what success he had with them I am not informed. In this connection I will add that Mr. R. H. Battle has in front of his residence an English Walnut tree, which bears most excellent nuts, but I have not heard of anyone else that has tried this nut hereabouts. Truly it seems we can raise almost anything in this grand old State. Sherwood Haywood. CURRENT COMMENT. The Republican organs in this State have given up in despair the attempt to interpret the silver resolution m the recent Harnsburg platform. Possibly the author of the resolution may be persuaded to come forward with an explanation. Jfhxl. Kecordy JDem There Is something very sus- picious almost alarming in the care with which Gov. Bois is distri buting his speeches throughout the country "in advance of delivery" and "for publication not before" such a date. We greatly fear that the Gov ernor has a bee. New York Adver tiser, Ind. - The real extent of the boom of Blain for the -Republican' nomina tion for the Presidency was never fully realized until after the action of the recent Pennsylvania Conven tion. It had really been fully de termined before that convention met to place a plank m the platform de daring .Blaine to be the choice of although afterwards it was decided that to do this would be impolitic, it I was generally understood that such was the sentiment of the banner Re publican State of the East. Rich mond Times, Dem. It begins to look as though the generals in command of the Union armies of the war were neg lectful of their duties and did not know how many men they com- manded; Commissioner Raum, who is disposing of 30,000 pension claims a montn, says ne has 900,000 still on file, and of these full a half million are .original claims. The great danger now is , that the reaction against extravagance in the granting of pensions will, when it comes, sweep away some pensions that ought to be continued. Philadelphia Ledger, Ind.'

A JACKASS QUESTION " Whloh is Explicitly! and Sufficiently Answered. Mobile Register. And now comes Stimpson, who is a down East post i bellum importa tion into Marengo county, and says that the Register once styled the county delegates to a congressianal convention "a set of jackasses." And the defendant demurs to the said allegation and for causes of de murrer says: 1. The said jackass question has no relation to the Ocala platform. 2. The said expression, bearing date 1876 if it was actually used, is barred by the statute cf limitations. And not waiving said demurrers, but insisting thereon, the defendant for answer to the said allegation, answering says: 1. He never said it. 2. If he said it, it was the result of political excitement, mean whis key and a brass band. 3. If any man takes our country delegates to conventions for jack asses, he is himself an ass. 4. The defendant is ready to get five : hundred affidavits from men who never heard him say it. 5. If he said it he is sorry for it. 6. He says he has been on good behavior for sixteen years, and enti tled to a pardon. And now, having fully answered the jackass allegations brought by the Boston alligator, the defendant prays to be hence dismissed, with his costs in this behalf most wrong fully expended. BALD-HEADED COTTON SEED. Something New in the "Way of Cotton Seed. Charleston News and Courier. The Spartanburg correspondent of the Greenville News says, in a letter written a few days ago, that the lint less cotton seed plant whose discov- tr7 was announced in the News and lur icr mok j Mai auu tt a.j uiuuu vit- rided at that time, "has come to "stay." Mr. H. T. Ferguson exhibited a stalk of the plant in, Spartanburg on Friday, which contained three hun dred bolls, each boll filled with large plump seed. He has taken much pains to get the variety perfect, and announces that he "will seed enough this year to plant the entire State." The estimated yield is four hundred bushels to the acre. The product is easily harvested, but the bolls must be gathered as they begin to crack, else the seed will fall to the ground. The yield of oil, it is further report ed, is about one-third more than that of ordinary cotton seed. If all these statements are literally true, it is seen that South Carolina has developed another new and im portant agricultural industry, and will soon be able to supply the world with a practically unlimited quantity of vegetable oil, stock tood ana ter tilizers. It would be a remarkable result truly, if the cotton seed crop should largely supplant the cotton cr0p, but it may come to that in the tn - These are record breaking times and the cotton plant is as full 0f surprises as a monkey. A hundred vears ago there was some doubt about whether cotton could be grown in this country. This year there is considerable doubt whether we can stop its growing. Twenty years ago the seed were re- carded as a nuisance. Now they are probably worth more than the corn crop, hay crop, wheat crop and hog crop all combined. Ten years from now the lint may be a nuisance, and indeed it is next thing to that now. Mr. Ferguson, of Spartanburg, is a eood man to keep an eye on.
