AArm r WILMINGTON, N. C. Wednesday Morning, Jan. 13, 1892. STAVHJG IT OFF. The disposition among the leaders of the Democratic party is to avoid distracting issues and to fight the next campaign on the issue of tariff reform and the record of the Billion Dollar Congress. They do not con sider it wise whether they favor free silver coinage or not to let that be an issue and to put the Democratic party on record either for or against it. There are Western and Southern Democrats who favor it, and there are Eastern and Northern Demo crats who are opposed to it. There' are Southern and Western States which would vote for it, and there are Eastern and Northern States which would vote against ifcr If the effort were made to commit the Na tional Democratic Convention to it, and the effort were unsuccess ful, , while it is doubtful whe ther it would win one State which the Democrats ; cannot carry " without it, it would endanger several States whose vote is absolutely nec essary to Democratic success in the next election, so that we would run the risk of losing' the election with out getting one inch nearer to free coinage, hut on the contrary would be getting still further from it. This is the situation'as thoughtful Democrats see it, and this is the reason- why there is a disposition to side-track that issue and let it bide its time until more important issues are settled. ' ; . - In his speech at the banquet given by the Business 'Men's Demo cratic Association of New York on the 8th inst., Congressman Springer hinted at an understanding, and said there was not the slightest probability of a free coinage bill being passed at this-session of Congress, but declared that if any action would be taken upon the silver question it would be such as would meet the approval of Democrats of all sections of the country. t - It comes .from other sources that .a plan has been agreed upon by the leading members of Congress, to stave off the agitation of that ques tion for the present, by which a bill will be passed authorizing the Presi . dent to convene a monetary con gress at Chicago next year, to be composed of delegates from the commercial nations -of Europe, to in vestigate and make such recommen- m m . . m mm dations on trie silver question as they may deem proper. The nations sending delegations to this con gress will not be bound by its action, as its object will sim ply be to 'investigate and discuss the question of silver 'money and "make such suggestions or recom mendations as may be deemed ad . visable. ' Each countryjwill select its delegates as it chooses. It is pro posed that this country have fifteen, five to be appointed by the Presi dent, five . by the Speaker of the House of Representatives from the House, and five from the Senate as it may elect. . . . . . It is said that the Republicans will also favor this plan as they too are afraid of the silver question and would be very lad to give it a rest and co-operate in any plan which promised to do that. Color is given to this: by the resolution offered in the Senate Monday by Senator .Tel ler. - -.' As a party it is a more trouble some question to them than it is to the Democrats, for they are 'commits ted against it and must remain com mitted against it if it continues to be a question for agitation, while the Democratic party, as,a party, is com mitted neither one way nor the other. The Democrats can let it alone with out being any the worse for it than they are now, but the Republicans can't let it alone if it be agitated, for to be consistent they must oppose it square out. This being so, in the un certainties attending the agitation, they will be very glad to put it to sleep, and go into the campaign -on other issues which they think haven't so much dynamite in them. But whether this be so or not, the Democrats will act wisely in elimi nating: that from the issues on which they are to make the next canvass, and subordinating it to the more im portant issues on which all Demo crats are united, especially as is no possibility l there jfcar- rying through a silver coinage bill if they were united upon it. If a bill passed the House and the Sen ate Mr. Harrison would veto it, for his position oil that question is too well known to 4leave ground for the hope that he would sign it. He could not do so without stultifying himself and swallowing his own words. In his message be intimated that he would favor free coinage on an international ratio of coin values and expressed a belief that a majori ty of the American people would also for it on this basis. This idea of calling a congress of nations is a step in that direction and perhaps that is the- reason why: he and other Republicans are ia fa vor of the plan suggested, as it pro vides for this. At all events it is about the best and wisest disposition that ean be made question at present. of the coinage MINOR MENTION. Wben the U. S. Supreme Court reversed the ruling of Judge Gra ham in the case of Charles Counsel man of Illinois, as reported in the Star of Tuesday, it did the right thing, although it may hamper, as suggested, the operations of the Inter-State Railway Commission. In the language of Senator Hill : "In the long-standing case of the State against the man we should always be on the side of the man and his lib erty.' .This is where the Supreme Court stood in' this case when it held that the clause of the constitution which provides that in a criminal case a man may not be compelled to criminate himself, shall have the broadest interpretation. There has been a disposition for some years, in the effort to secure what is called reformatory legislation, to ignore the individual and hence the laws some times vest tribunals with inquisitorial powers, as has been done in the case of the Inter-State Commission,rthe census bureau, and sometimes in the case of special investigating com mittees of Congress and State Leg islatures, which have under these laws assumed the right to ask all manner of questions, and to demand answers to them. In this case Mr." Counselman very properly refused to tell whether he had ever secured from any railroad company special rates for the shipment of grain lower than the open rates to other ship pers. . Practically speaking, the commission by these questions, if they had been answered, proposed to make Mr. Counselman a prosecuting witness,and at the same time hold him liable under the law as a party to its violation. He refused to an swer, the Supreme Court says he was right and that Judge Gresham was wrong wben he held Mr. Coun selman for contempt in refusing to obey the order of his court and an swer. As between the State and the man let us always be on the side of the man and his liberty. v- in the resolution introduced by Representative Watson, of Georgia, in the House, Monday, for the ap pointment of a committee to investi gate the Pinkerton detective agency. 11 was recited that this agency em ploys, m the respective States an aggregate body of 35,0U0 armed men, who may be called out. nrs sumably under color Dl iaw, to' aid in suppressing disturbances between employes and their employers, and while so engaged "may shoot down men, as they have done in many in stances- They are some "times em ployed for the special reason that many 6 them being sent in . from other States they are presumed to have'no sympathy with the striking workmen, and will therefore be more useful and - effective ""than sheriff's posses or the militia." : There; were few people who had any idea that this agency controlled such a force as that, and was such a powers com manding really a larger body of men than the United States Army. It is a subject well : worthy of investiga-' tion, and of thorough and serious investigation, too. - ' T - ...-.- Hon. J. S. HendersonJ Represen tative of the 7th . District of this State, has introduced bill in the House to repeal .the'ten per cent, tax on the circulation of State banks, and Senator Teller, of Colorado, has introduced a resolution in the Senate instructing the Finance Committee to report a bill' for the same purpose. IUisa somewhat significant fact that this resolution has ieen introduced by a Republican Senator and one of the strongest advocates of the free coinage of silver. It comes logically from him, however, as one of the principal reasons for advocating free coinage is to increase the volume of currency, which can be done by re pealing this ten per cent, tax on State bank circulation, more speedily and effectively -than in any other way. j The result will be the prompt establishment of State banks where' ever there is need for more . circuV lating medium than the business in terests can command under the pres ent monetary system. , STATE TOPICS. ihe nenaersonviiie itmes says there is a practical mine out there who thinks there is a fair prospect of finding coal oil or natural gas in that'section, and is so firmly con vinced of it that he has made a pro position to the owners of 23,000 acres to agree to bore a well 2,000 feet deep, unless coal oil or gas be struck at a less depth, on condition that they give him a five years bond on the property arid contribute 1,000 to help defray the expense of boring. While the bond lasts no one is to have the privilige of mining or boring for oil or gas upon the land This looks like business unless it may be a scheme' that this man has re sorted to for getting possession of a valuable piece of mineral land. He might very well afford to bore a two thousand foot well when the owners of the land contribute $1,000, for the privilege of five years' time to spec ulate on 23,000 acres of mineral land CURRENT COMMENT. - -r- Senator Stewart's discovery that a free-coinage law is already on the books, gives a decidedly argenti- fenous appearance to the horizon President Harrison will surely have his silver brick turned into com now, Louisville Courier- Journal, Demo crat. - - - Why should we assume that Chili has done what is right only be cause we blustered?

' It is no doubt true that Mr. Harrison , was elected president largely on his promise to make Mr. Blaine Secretary of State; There's .where Benjamin had the advantage of James, for if the latter were to ask for the votes of the people on the assurance that he would make Mr. Harrison Secretary of State it would snow him under: Chicago Mail, JDemocrat. . I his would be a gopd time for President Harrison to send his gerrymander message to the Ohio Legislature. T he proposed appor tionment law will give the Demo crats four out of the twentv-one Congressmen of that State The present law gave the Democrats fourteen out of twenty-one. The fair proportion would be about ten Democrats and eleven Republicans And this is what we call popular government. Indianapolis Sentinel, JJem. - ' I Merit tVlna. .

Years ago, when Plumb was a poor and comparatively unknown man, he found himself in Lawrence, &n., says a Washington , correspon-' dent. There he heard of a man who ik a miserable dugout on the prairies was "dying of the ' smallpox; alone and without the benefit - of either clergy or doctor. , Smallpox was then more dreaded than it is now, and when his neigh bors knew what was the matter with him, they fled for their lives and re fused to go near him. - . Mr. Plumb heard the story and was moved by it. It seemed incred ible to him that a man should be al lowed to die in this way. He went to the superintendent of the poor and urged him to take some action in the matter. The superintendent was as much afraid of the scourge as was everyDody else. Jtiis omciai eyes were conveniently closed to the case. - - . , If friends of the sick man, he said, would report the matter to him he would investigate it, but until that was done he could not be expected to run round looking for dying nren. Mr. Plumb was ' disgusted, but more determined than ever to do whatever was possible for the man, of whom until that day he had never seen. He happened to remember that about twenty miles from Lawrence lived a family that were acquaint ances of his. He . hired a buggy and drove to their farmhouse, ex plained the situation to them, and offered to pay them if they would take care of the patient.; They agreed to do this, .and the next day the farmer's big wagon carried the poor fellow to . where some kind of comfort and attention awaited him. Plumb himself- stayed - with him tor some days, attending him as faithfully as if the man had been his brother. Then the future Senator ... . . went aoout nis oustness, but m a short time he was down ' with the smallpox and came very near dying. Plumb recovered, although the scars on his face remained to tell of his heroism and humanity. The man who was rescued by Plumb also recovered. He pros pered and was sent to the Legisla ture. He never forgot that it was Plumb to whom he owed his life, and when Plumbs name was first men tioned for the Senate this man work ed early and late for him. He told his associates the story, and it did as much as anything else to elect Plumb .to the United States Senate. PERSONAL.
