(Extract from the speech of Bourke Cockran, de livered in New York August 18th.) THE HOME MARKET. In his letter of acceptance Mr. McKinley laid great stress upon the home market which would supply farmers with consumers to buy the products of the farm, and thus bring prosperity to them. Nit, is not more silver we need, according to him, but more mills, the opening of the mills, he would have us understand, winch were closed by theWjlson tariff X Mr. McKinley is neither truthful nor honest in his statement, for asa matter of fact many mills were started up after the passage of ifhe "Wilson bill which had been closed since the financial and business col lapse of 1893, and another fact Is that under the Wils.oa law , there has been an increase of $70, 000,000 in our manufactured exports over the corresponding period under the McKinley law. x Under the SMmillllc of f mo mm mit.rUI n. material on which the duties were materially reduced, the factories started up and rushed things until -they overstocked the market and then they had to CDntract the output. Ia the meantime they exported more than they ever d id before x in the same period, showing thit under the Wilson law, with untaxed or less taxed raw material, they could com-x pete with foreign manufacturers, with whom they had not been able to compete under previous Republi can tariffs. Oae reason, and the principal rea son, why they, overstocked the mar ket was because the low prices of firm products crippled the capacity of the farmers to buy, the conse quence of which was that they bought less and the manufacturer suffered. It was not the Wilson tariff, vah rh Mr firV inl,, . t . a i ' in a "modified form," but the strin gency of money which prevented the free and profitable sale of manufac tures that caused depression in the manufacturing industries. But Mr. McKinley is still playing -the "home market" fake on the farm ers, or trying to play it, as It has been played by the high protection- Kt"f or years. Mr. Blaine wasn't banking so much on the home mar ket, which is a very good thing, for he told the committee when they were laboring on the bill which bore Mr. McKinley's name, that there wasn't a clause in it that would "open a market for another bushel of American wheat or barrel of pork." Yielding to his energetic per sistence they finally added a recip rocity supplement, more with the view of placating Mr. Blaine than of opening a market to American wheat or pork. We tried under McKinleyism and previous Republican tariffs the ad vantages of the so-called home mar ket, which has always proved a de lusion and a share to the American farmer. Ia verity the home mar ket which the protectionists have in their eye is the monopolistic home market the protected manufacturers will have when foreign manufactur ers are practically excluded, and the home manufacturers have nothing to fear from foreign competition. The home market is a good thing for them, for they can gauge their output in proportion to the demand and manufacture oniy so much as may beprofitably disposed of ; but the farmer cannot do that. He plants, sowsnd reaps and cannot tell what the harvest will be until he gathers or reaps. If the crop be small the prices may be high, but he may not have enough" to pay him for his work and investment, but if his crop be large then there will be a surplus for which he must seek a market in other countries. There he must find sale for the sur plus that the home market cannot consume. Haven't we had for thirty-odd years, with the exception of the time in which the Wilson tariff has been in operation, this so called "home market" ? If not, why not? And with thirty odd years of this kind of tie plus ultra market shouldn't the farmers of this country be pretty" well fixed and pretty well able to stand a little set back from the Wilson tariff, which Mr. McKinley seriously tells us played the mischief ? We are not disposed to understi mate the importance of the home market for it is a good and should be our best market, and with our 70, 000,000 of people.it ought to be able to consume all our farmers raise and leave but little if any surplus for shipment abroad. But it can never V do this while en terprise and development are cramped for want of a sufficiently expansive volume of currency, and while a comparatively small number ofmen can control the volume of money we have and contract or ex pand it as their interests may dic tate and thus" affect the valueof everything bought or sold. We want a home market, but a home market with the shackles off, a home market in which every one will have a chance, not a home market for the benefit of the favored manufacturer, in which every one else will have to pay tribute to him. We tried that kind of a home market for thirty years and we fail to see where any one but the protected manufacturer was benefitted by it. It is late in the day for Mr. McKinley to be playing that old fake. MUHOS MENTION. One of the accusations made against the free silver movement is that it is sectional and that the effect if not purpose is to array the South and the West, against the East. With equal propriety and infinitely more truth it might have been alleged that the movement for tariff reform, for which the Democratic party was contending for years, was a sectional movement because most of the beneficiaries of a high protec tive tariff were in the East, while most of those who suffered by it were in other sections. But these gentlemen who deprecate making sectional issues are themselves doing it in. a most offensive way. Hon. Bourke Cockran, who poses as a Democrat, had the ineffable mean ness to charge that the silver move ment was mainly supported by "re pudiating farmers of the West" and "unreccopciled silver .holders of the South " I Mr. MpKinley in his letter of acceptance appeals to the soldiers who "saved the Union," and ex President Harrison in his speech at Carnegie Hall, New York, declared that the fight now was to preserve what was won by the Federal armies which fought for the preservation of the Union. This is not his exact language, but it is the substance of what he said on the sectional line. They both appealed to the memories of the past, and tried to stir up the almost extinguished embers, of the war. But the meanest and most ma lignant utterance yet made in this campaign on the ssctloaaUne is the following from a speech of Hon. Don M. DicTcinsan. ex-Postmaster Gen eral, under Cleveland's first adminis tration, in the Sound- Money State Convention, at Lansing, Mtch : "It is not embarrassing at all, as vou suggest, to be mentioned by my fellow Democrats, bat in this State my present belief is, as you know, that we should fire both barrels at the unmistakable enemies of the republic. A certain half dozen unreconstructed adherents ot trea son in the South, deluding and betray ing ineir people lor the second time, have made an alliance with the enemies of honor, law, and order at the North. "They mean not only the reorganiza tion, enlargement, and packing of the Supreme Court of the United States but also the reorganization, enlargement. and packing of the United States army, They mean more and wotse evil than is in the Chicago platform, bid as that is, This republic is not a failure anv. more than the war was in 1881. but the threat is more menacing to all that we love in this country of ours than that of 1861. , 'I could not go to Indianaoolis. but you will find me-dojng my duty as I see ii in mis emergency. Long live the re public r Doesn't talk about sectionalism come with poor grace from such firebrands as these ? -k If there ever was any doubt as to the motive that inspired the move ment for the- Indianapolis conven tion, there is not now, for it has been admitted by a number of the most prominent leaders in that movement. Ex-Secretary Fairchild, ex-Secretarv Whitney, Hon. on M. Dickinson, ex-Mimster Phelps, Hon. Bourke Cockran, Hon. Henry Watterson, senator Vilas, Senator Palmer, Gen. Bragg, Secretary Morton, and last but not least, CoinptrollerEckels, all aamitthatit is the purpose to take votes away from Bryan, and thus aid in tne election of McKinley, and the restoration of the Re publican party to power. What ever they may profess they are sim ply assistant Republicans, perform ing in disguise as Democrats. Mr. Cooley, one of the delegation to Indianapolis from Tennessee, who was exceedingly , anxious to have Cleveland nominated, gave as a rea son for it that his nomination would "add several hundred thousand votes to the ticket in the Sonth that would otherwise go to Bryan." Mr. Cooley coolly proposes to utilize Mr. Cleve land's name and prestige and his supposed popularity to help Mr, McKinley, for Mr. Cooley has not the remotest idea that Mr. Cleveland, if nominated, could be elected. And these men have the audacity to cal themselves Democrats and to . ask Democrats to co-operate with them in the effort to' elect McKinley, What amazing cheek. ' - A correspondent asks the Phila delphia Record the following ques tion : If free coinage should be adopted would the silver dollars then coined for private individuals be guaranteed as the present silver dollar is by tne uovern ment ? !, To which the Record replies as fol lows: No. The Government under the op eration of free coinage would merely at' test the weight and fineness of silver coin or gold coin. Its responsibility would go no lurther. Should the Government exercise the option of paying silver dollars to its creditors instead of gold, silver mono metallism would be thereby established and the credit of the Government would suffer to the extent of its repudiation of debts contracted undet the gold stand ard of value. This is not an honest answer, Under free coinage the silver dollars would be just as much guaranteed as they are now. The only guaran tee they have is the resolution of the Congress ot the United States known as the Stanley Matthews resolution declaring that the Government had the moral and legal right to redeem its obligations in silver dollars, of standard weight and fineness, and the declaration in. the Sherman act that it is the policy of this Govern ment to maintain its different kinds of money at a j parity! The only authority for discriminating against silver is in the arbitrary de clsion of Secretary Foster to pay gold instead of silver, under the pre tence that this was the way to "main: tain the parity." The stamp of the Government on the face of silver com is its guarantee that it will take it and pay it out and that it is good to pay debts. That's all the Gov eminent can do for any money.

Washington Progress: As the train on the Norfolk & Southern Railroad was running between Roper and Pantego about 12 o clock Thurs day night, it ran over a white man by the name of Herrington, killing him instantly.

Salisbury World: The citizens of Salisbury were shocked last night to near of the death of Mrs. R. T. Holmes, which occurred at Connelly bprings last evening about 7.30 o'clock.

Sunday she spent the day with her son, R. L. Wright, and seemed as bright as usual. CURRENT COMMENT. . Major McKinley could not let go of his tariff hobby, and em barrassed the assistant Republicans who are masqnerading as "sound money Democrats. Cincinnati En quirer, Dem. "iNot content with urging the free coinage of silver," said Mr, McKinley, in his letter of accept ance, "its strongest champions de mand that our paper money shall be issued directly by the Government of the United States " Shocking ! By the way, who issues the bulk of our paper money now 1New York Journal, Deui. McKinley stands for gold monometallism: Bryan stands for the coinage of both gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and the peo i . . : . . . .... pie are sitting as tne jury, wnen a lawyer has neither law nor evidence on his side he tries bullyragging and blackguarding the opposing counsel. The advocates of the gold standard are now trying this programme on Bryan but he grows stronger with the people all the time, and their verdict will be the most convincing answer to all the mean things that are being said. Augusta Chronicle, Uem. Telegraph Lines. A German expert, after a careful es timate, has announced that the total length of telegraph lines in the world ia i,U02,7UU miles, of -which America baa 645,600 miles; Europe, 380,700; Asia, 07,400; Africa. 21.500. and Australia. 47,500 miles. The United States has a greater length than any other country, 403,900 miles, and Russia comes next, although European Russia has only 81, 000 miles. The other countries follow in this order: Germany, France, Austria-Hungary, British-India. Mexico, the United . Kingdom, Canada, Italy, Tur key, the Argentine Republic, Spain and Chile. In point of proportion, however, Belgium leads, with 409 miles of wire for every 1, 000 square miles of territory ; Germany comes next with 850 miles; Holland is only slightly behind Ger many, and the United Kingdom has 280 miles of telegraph for every 1,000 miles of country. The Barber of Seville." "The Barber of Seville," the famous opera of Rossini, was produced for the first time on Feb. 16, 1816. According to the Italian law, which fixes the dura tion of the right of ownership for dramat ic works at 80 years, Rossini's master piece would have become publio proper ty a few weeks ago. But In Italy no op era is more popular than "The Barber," and the revenues from its production constitute almost the whole Income of the musical academy at Pesaro, Italy, the residuary legatee of the composer. Owing to this fact, the government has issued a decree prolonging the right of proprietorship two years in order to save the institution financially. Many Wives Have Observed This.
