WILMINGTON, N. C. Saturday Morning, Nov. 21, 1891 SO DANGER FROM SILVER. The opponents of free silver coin age have raised the hue and cry that it meant rnnauon to sucn an extent as would unsettle values, disturb business, and result in inevitable disaster. That was the position taken by the Republicans in Ohio in the last campaign, where they took issue with the Democrats .on the free coinage" plank in the Demo--cratic platform. That is the posi tion taken by the Republicans every where, when the question is dis cussed, and not only by Republicans, but by those Democrats who are opposed to free coinage. Dunn? the campaign in. Ohio. Senator Sherman and Secretary Foster both made speeches in Ohio, both played on the "honest dollar" string, and both took the position that the Ohio Democracy was ruin ously wrong in its ideas about the currency. ' ' ; ! Shortly after the election the New York Chamber of Commerce, at a meeting, passed resolutions which practically demanded a suspension ot silver coinage, and the stoppage of the monthly purchase of silver bullion which the Secretary of the Treasury is now required to pur chase under the law. On the 17th inst. the Chamber of Commerce gave its annual dinner. Among the invited guests was Gen eral Foster, Secretary of the Treas ury, who was down on the bills for a 'speech, and who made a speech which contained some facts and figures which are a conclusive answer - to the contention of his party friends and others who say that the business of the country will be imperilled by coining the product of our mines into dollars, and these facts and figures also show that the great financiers of the coun try are not infallible in their theories and may be mistaken as well as other people. His speech was apparently intended as an answer to those reso lutions of the Chamber of Commerce, which had been forwarded to him. "It is now agreed," he said, "on all sides, that gold alone furnishes too narrow a basis upon which -to con duct the money affairs of the world. Fifteen years ago the people of the East, who were supposed to under stand the question of finance, in dulged in prophecy as to the evil that would follow under such a large coinage of silver dollars." He says he was of this opinion himself, be cause he thought those eminent East ern financiers knew all about it, and that no one could reasonably doubt conclusions arrived at by such able men. How have these doleful predictions been verified ? Since then $300,000, 000 were coined and the circulation reaches $400,000,000 of silver, to which has been added $70,000,000 of Treasury notes paid out for about $70,000,000 worth of silver bullion purchased at gold value and still the silver dollar is on a par with gold and nobody has been hurt. The point in this is that while those great Eastern financiers were 'con-contending-that the coinage ot $4, 000,000 a month would run gold away up or out of the country and silver away down, $300,000,000 of new dollars have been coined and $70,000,000 of notes paid out for bul lion have been put into circulation and these eminent financiers have not yet discovered the wide-spread ruin they predicted. j Secretary Foster thinks that we can get along pretty well by pursu ing the present plan, of purchasing 4,500,000 ounces of silver monthly to be coined into dollars, which would take more than the whole present product of the American sil ver mines, which could be used for coinage purposes, the arts requiring at least twenty-five or thirty per cent, of the product, but he thinks free coinage would be disastrous for that would flood the country with the silver of other nations, over stock us with silver and result in its depreciation, thus destroying the parity with gold-which now exists. This is another delusion. There is not a country on earth except, perhaps, Mexico, which does not need all the silver it has. As it is now, in order to comply with the let ter of the law and coin the amount required by the silver coinage act it is necessary to import some silver because the American mines, after deducting what is used in the arts, do not furnish enough bullion for that purpose. But even if there should be a temporary rush of silver to this country would not the owners of the American silver mines the very moment their- silver began to show signs of depreciation withhold it from the mints, and thus prevent the threatened over-stocking? They would certainly1 not be foolish enough to ruin their own business by over-stocking the markets and hav ing more dollars coined than there is a demand for. They know what they are about too well for that. A little experiment - with free coinage might demonstrate that M. Foster is as much mistaken in this as he con fesses he was fifteen years ago. aUNOR MENTION. According to the press dispatches from Indianapolis the third-part-, sub-treasury boomers have succeed ed in capturing the Alliance and at the same time in splitting it. Jerry Simpson was there in all his glory, and as far as can be judged from the reports of the proceedings he and others who are playing the Alliance for all it is worth got in their work. The convention seems to be practi cally in control of the Western dele gates who are held well in hand and are showing up more effectually than than the did in the late elections. The fact that Col. Polk was re elected President because he was re garded as favorable to the third party schemeand that J. H. Louks, of South Dakota, an avowed third party man, was elected Vice Presi dent leaves little doubt of the in fluence that dominated the conven tipn. The opposition to the third party, sub-treasury and other ex treme measures advocated came mainly from the South, and the effort will now be made to entice or whip in the Southern Alliance men to fol low the lead of these Western Re publicans in Alliance disguise. It looks to us very much like a delibe rate attempt to get the Southern Alliance men to commit themselves to the third party, and when that is done the majority of these Western third partyites will walk up to the polls next year and vote he Repub lican ticket as they did in the last election ia Ohio, Kansas and other States. - Fire-alarm Foraker is hard at work now to win Sherman's seat in the Senate, and publicly declares that he proposes to give Mr. Sherman the tussle of his life. He will doubt less give him a tussle, but Sherman, who is cool, calm and cunning, will be very likely to come out on top when the last ballot is taken, if not the first. Foraker has been to Wash ington lately working up his case, and had interviews with Mr. Harri son, Secretary Blaine and several other party magnates. He called to see Mr.. Harrison just at the time he was starting off for his Maryland duck hunt, and as he was more inter ested in his duck hunting than he was in ForaJcer's senatorial aspirations, the interview was very brief and For-aker's-disgust quite large-sized. He met with a more considerate recep tion from Mr. Blaine, but the result of that interview has not been im parted to the public. We do not know whether Harrison loves Sherman, but he hates Foraker, and for all practical purposes, as far his influ ence goes in the Sherman-Foraker contest, that is the next thing to lov ing Sherman. Secretary Foster makes no bonesj' about where -he stauds, and publicly declares that it would be a shame if the';Ohio Re publicans failed to jreturn John Sher man to the Senate.TForaker and his friends think this an inexcusable piece of intermeddling on the part of a Cabinet officer, and will therefore whet their knives for Mr. Harrison. . We made reference a few days ago to the plans proposed in Virginia for the betterment of the public roads. The one which is attracting the most attention and the one most favorably thought of, contemplates an expenditure of $1,098,869, to-be raised by a special tax, and so divided as to distribute the burden so as to make it fall as lightly and as equally upon the people as possi ble. It provides for a State tax of half a mill on the dollar, a county tax of a tenth of a mill on the dol lar, a personal road tax of fifty cents a year, a tax of fifty cents a year on each horse and mule in the State, and of fifty cents on all vehicles. It is contended that this is about as equitable a plan of taxa tion for that purpose as could be de vised, and while it falls lightly upon all, the larger portion is paid by those who are most interested in good roads. That portion to be raised by the respective counties, which is about one-third of the total, they are left free to raise in the way that may seem best to them, and they are also to have control of it in accordance with the general plan, the idea being, we presume, that they may see that the money thus raised is expended within the counties in which it is raised. STATE TOPICS. The Census Bureau has just issued its bulletin giving the population of North Carolina by counties, and also of cities and towns with a popula tion above 2,000. The total for the State is put at 1,617,947, an increase of 218,197 since 1880. Of the 96 counties in the State there are 31 with a population of over 20,000. The most populous of these are Buncombe, with 35.2GG; Cumber land, with 27,321; Forsyth, with 28,434; Guilford, with 28,052; Hali fax, with 28,908;- Johnston, with 27,239; Mecklenburg, with 42,673; Robeson, with 31,483; Wake, with49, 207; and Wayne, with 26,100. All of the others of the 31 referred to range in population between 25,000 and 20,000. Twelve counties show a de crease, some from emigration and some from having been divided. Twenty-three cities and towns are enumerated with populations rang ing from 2,000 to 20,056. with which Wilmington leads, being followed by Raleigh with 12,678; Charlotte with 11,557; Asheville with 10,235, and Winston with 8,018. The most re markable increase is in Asheville where the population is four times as large as it was in 1880, and irv Winston where it is over three times as large. CURRENT COMMENT. President Harrison does not care whether there are 800 or 900 miles of saloons. The best whiskey comes from Scotland, and Andy Carnegie has a cellar "full of it. Louisville Courier- Journal, Dem. Secretary Foster uses just the right words when he savs that "the people of the country would look with wonder and amazement if the greatest Senator of the Union (Sher man) was not returned by the peo ple of Ohio." This would be true, though they should send to the Sen ate to take His place a much better man in every way than Mr. Foraker. Phil. Ledger, Ind. Dictator Da Fonseca is now being held up as a devoted friend of the United States. A few days ago the Czar of Russia was being similarly posed. Previous to him Balmaceda had a turn. From such friends, lovers of liberty and of popu lar government, may these United States be forever deprived. IV. Y. Advertiser, Ind. It is not certain whether the Brazilians can fight or not; but that they are adepts in drawing the long bow is easily demonstrated by the alleged news of the last few days. We boast in these days of universal civilization; yet here, in the last decade of the century, a petty despot at the equator is able to turn aside all channels of reliable intelligence and keep the world in ignorance as to the extent of his usurpations.

Prof. Morse Deaoribes the Delightful So -oial Life of the People. Baltimore Sun. '..--- Prof. Edward S. Morse,-of Salem, Mass., began last night at Peabody Institute a course of four illustrated lectures on Japan. He was for two years jprofessor of zoology in the Imperial University in Tokio, and is widely known by the large and varied collection of Japanese pottery which he brought to this country, and which is now in the Museum of Arts in Boston. The subject of his first discourse was "Social Life in Japan." He said, in part : "A marked feature of the Japanese is their uniform politeness. Country people, children and all classes are very polite to each other and to strangers. If rough manners are seen, it is in those ports longest open to foreigners. Life in the open streets of Japanese cities is in mark ed contrast with life in American crowds. In the densest outpourings ot Japanese people under any cir cumstances any one may travel or move about without trouble, for it is considered discourteous for one per son to touch, lean against or come in contact with another. The Japa nese students in America have alj ways been highly esteemed for their honorable and high-bred behavior in every respect. They have a strong sense of national and personal honor. It is considered rude to contradict or have a different opinion. "In the country the daughters of the host wait on the table. In the cities the Geisba, or dancing girls, wait on the table. The Japanese are fond of chess and a game called 'Go, which is played with checks. The common, bare-legged Cooley in the streets may be seen playing a more complicated game of chess than is played anywhere else in the world. "The cultivated classes are exceed ly fond of making collections of all kinds, among which may be men tioned pottery, coins, autographs, swords, tiles tor roofs, lacquer, , old writings and books. "New Year's Day is one of the greatest days on the island. Every body calls, sweet wines and refresh ments are offered, and fronts of houses are decorated with evergreens gine and bamboo. There is a marked absence of ostentation in manners as well as in dress. If a fee is given to a servant it is wrapped in paper and left where it will be found after the guest is gone. School children of wealthy parents are dressed poorly, so that poor children will not feel ashamed by comparison. There is great toleration in relig ious matters and exceeding kindness to animals. Wild ducki and teal alight in the city lakes by thousands during their migrations. They are never disturbed. 'In a number of villages wild deer come down from the woods and go through the villages to find something to eat. They are not disturbed. No one in Japan goes out to kill game for sport. Hunters go out into the wilds to kill game for food, but the birds are not shot. They are caught in nets or with bird lime. Deer and other large game have to be shot. ' Professor Morse then described a walk he took through the village of Miyajima, during which he fed a wild deer with part of a watermelon he was eating. "If a man is burnt out," he con tinued, "strangers go out of their way to trade with him for awhile until he gets well started again. The hon esty of the people is marvelous. Cleanliness is a also a national traif Every town has enough baths for all and everybody bathes. Mechan ics and working people bathe every day. Prof. Morse made some satncal but good natured contrast between civilization here and in Japan. "It strikes a Japanese curiously enough when he comes to this country to see door-mats chained to steps, ther mometers screwed to walls, dippers chained totountains, and the re quests to 'wipe your feet,' and 'keep off the grass.' There is no vandal ism of any kind in Japan." Advice to jriomern. t or Over Fifty Years Mrs. Winslo w s Soothing Syrup has been used by millions of mothers for their chil dren while teething.

Mr. Frank Huffman, a young man of Burlington, Ohio, states that he had been under the care of two prominent physicians, and used their treatment un til he was not able to get around.

Leghorn, of Lynchbu. g, Va while dressing an ab sess on bis leg last Friday, found a part of the ball with which he was wounded at the battle of Seven Pines, nearly thirty years ago, while - leading the Eleventh Virginia infantry into action Prof. Garwer, of Roanoke, sticks to it that he has partially dis covered the language employed, by monkeys in communicating with each other. He states that he will conduct a series of experiments with monkeys, dogs and cats, and prove to the world that animals have a language than can be understood by human beings. L. J. Parker, of Washington, has a head thirty-two inches in circum ference. Years ago -he was offered a yearly sum by a syndicate of doctors on the condition that they should hsve his remarkable head for an autopsy after his death. He accepted, has lived com fortably for years, and the purchasers have shuffled off the mortal coil, while Mr. Parker is well and healthy. Dr. Helene Druschkowitz, one of the first women in Austria to acquire the title of Ph. D., became suddenly in sane a few days ago in Vienna. The un fortunate women was graduated from the University of Zurich when only 20 years old. She has written a number of literary, historical and critical essays, and was a woman of considerable learn ing. Grevy generally spoke- with little bitterness when criticising his op ponents or men whom he "disliked. He did not bridle his tongue, however, re garding Boulanger. "1 had him about me," once said the late President, "eigh teen months, and therefore I know what was in him. He understood only one thing; to make stupid mistakes. Had I not restrained him we should have had war. , Capt. Charles King is about to leave off writing military stories for a while, and will take himself off to Eu rope for an extended trip of two or three months. It is Capt. King's idea to make a thorough study of military ma neuvers of the English, French and Ger man armies, the methods of training and perfecting the European soldiers, and analyzing the strength of foreign armies. Gladstone is admitted to be, in private life as well as in public, the greatest talker of the century. One of his admirers says of him, "In a drawing room he is surrounded by a bevy of ladies and a crowd of gentlemen.. One starts a question. It may be on Emer son's best poem, or it may be upon the origin. of racing in England or the mo rality of card-playing. And upon them all Gladstone is good for a couple of columns at least." POLITICAL POINTS. Now that it appears that Mr. Blaine is as hale and hearty as a three-year-old, it is beginning to leak out that he never was the inventor of reciproci ty. S'm'other man. V. Y. Advertiser, Ind. Senator Sherman expressed his desire rather than his opinion when he declared that silver would be the issue in 1892. He and all other sensible Re publicans realize the danger to the par ty in making the McKinley law an is sue. St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Dem. One Pittsburg firm has assessed its laborers 15 cents each day to recover the funds advanced to the Ohio cam paign. They have been paying 1 50 per day for ten hours. They now de mand the same hours for $1 35 a day. When it is considered that McKinley passed his bill to protect labor, it is only fair that labor should pay the campaign costs. Kansas City Times, Dem. VALUE OF "WAR DOGS. Trained to Hunt for "Wounded Soldiers on Battle Fields. Army and Navy Gazette. In France, Italy, Germany and Australia, as well as in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the value of war dogs has been fully tested, and the idea has answered excellently with the outposts as well as with the patrol. But to the German army belongs the merit of having made use of the dog's sagacity for humane purposes in time of war, and it is probable that before long a number of fresh canine recruts will be permanently attached to German regiments, their office being to search for the wound ed. The Prussian Jagar battalions have already a number of such dogs on trial, all of them being thoroughly trained to seek out wounded sol diers In the field. The experiments so far have been carried out, -my in formant says, as follows : A num ber of men hide in a wood, or be hind hedges, lying on the ground face downward and with orders not to move. As soon as the dogs are let loose they begin the search. When they find one ot these men they place their forepaws upon the prostrate body and begin to bark, an exercise which is continued till the bearers appear and carry the man off, where upon the dogs start afresh. Each company of the Lubben Jagar has about twelve of these dogs. Hunting dogs cannot be re lied upon on account of their love of the chase, and therefore sheepdogs or Pomeranian Spitzhunde are chosen for the work. R. L.
