The New York World quotes John Sherman as saying that tbe "Sher man Anti-Monopoly law cm be en forced," and rises to propound, the inquiry, "Now what does McKinley say?" McKinley says nihil, and keeps on saying it in spite of the di urnal importunities of the Worlds 11 there is a greater farce than the World's efforts to get McKinley to condemn the "trusts it was getting John Sherman to say that his anti trust law could be enforced, when he hadn't the slightest idea that it would be enforced when he proposed it and when it was so framed as to practically make it inoperative. Sherman was simply playing the hypocrite in that as in many other things. - "When a man is dead," says evan gelist Moody, "yon can lay him obt as you please, and he will stay just that way regular and dead." But there are some men who never dis cover that they are dead. -T here are the decoys Palmer and Buckner, for instance. They have been "laid out," but they are still going around the, country with their sideshow, as if they were alive. - " ' The Philadelphia Record perti nently : and truthfully remarks: "Major McKinley insists that what the country wants is a chance to work." True, and therein the coun try differs from the McKinleyites, who only want a chance to work the Government." But the Record is helping the McKinleyites in their efforts to work the Government, all the same. The LaCrosse (Wis.) Republican says: "Senator Teller is oa: the stump for "Bryan. His personal in terests are in a Colorado silver mine." The first sentence is true, bat the second is false, and, like the lie about Bryan having been In the pay of the silver: mine owners, has been frequently exposed, and sev eral times by Senator Teller himself. The gold men are boasting of the increase of wealth in this country, and call attention to the increase from $32,500,000,000 in 1873 to to $70,000,000,000 in 1895 as an evi dence of the fine results of the gold standard. Why, bless their souls, If it hadn't been for the demonetization of .silver our national wealth would be $100,000,000,000 by this time. It is said that Consul General Crittenden, of Mexico, has incurred the displeasure of the State Depart ment because he wrote an article for the New York Journal showing1 how Mexico js prospering with silver money. Mr. Olney doesn't think he should Impart such information as that without first passing it throngh his mill. - In a speech to some pilgrims at Canton a few, days ago, McKinley told them something about raising revenue. He could get some good points from Hanna on that. , . - "Hanna is a man of few words," remarks the New York Advertiser. True.

Tha Populist Committee - Will Meet To-day to Con.idet the . Mettsr Senator Batlir Pe i" : . . aland t furor . the - ' Proposition. " . - f Special Star Correspondence. w Raleigh, N. C Oct. 13. The action of the Democratic' .State Central Committee in proposing fusion with Populists created the greatest kind of a surprise.: Few persons had any idea that the Democrats would accept Mr. Ayer's proposition, for such bis re ply was. The proposition . will be de ll, vered to Chairman Ay'er 'at noon to day or tbereabouti.:: Mr. Ayer has al ready summoned': hie Executive Com mittee to meet here Wednesday, Octo ber 14th. Every member is urged to at tend, to pass upon matters of .vital im portance, so the telegrams read. - The sentiment of Democrats is pretty well " divided in Raleigh in regard to what is termed by many, "The surren der to Populism." Some approve and others condemn. Local Populists make fun of the proposition and Republicans look gleeful. ; - The proposition asks for fusion on all State, county and congressional offices. According to the provisions of the proposal as submitted , . the Dem ocrats are to ' support Guthrie for Lieutenant -Governor, Cv. Thomp son for Secretary of State. W. H. Worth for Treasurer, and Montgomery for the j Supreme Court, and also Guthrie, or whoever the Populists may designate for the United States Senate, The Popu lists are to support Watson for Governor and the balance of the Democratic State ticket, and J. S. Manning, the Judicial nominee in tbe Fifth district. In the Congressional division the Populists are to have the First, Third. Fourth and Seventh districts, and the Democrats tbe rest. "Bailey, of North Carolina." is Quoted to have said, "If we only had known, we never would have fused with the Pop ulists." Bailey thinks the Republican vote exceeds that of the Democrats and Populists. . Chatham Republicans are evidently living in ntter ignorance. Yesterday they pledged their support to P. T. Massey for Congress.- ' Chairman Aver states, fill the Populist eacpaigofcisT save one. ire paying their own expenses. It is pretty much the same way with the Democratic canvassers. Is there a Republican in the State making the canvass who de frays all of his own expenses ? Special Star Telegram. Judge Montgomery decides that mag istrates are to bs voted for on the county ticket. By Southern Associated Presa. Raleigh, October 1 18 The Demo cratic Ceitiral Committee was in session here until after 8 o'clock this morning. It reviewed the situation, and decided that the Republicans - would certainly elect their State ticket unless fusion of Democrats and Populists were effected. The committee, therefore, ' proposed " to tbe Pops both State and Congressional fusion. The proposition was sent to the Populist State chairman this morning. It is that Watson (Democrat) shall be j iiot candidate for Governor; Guthrie (Populist) for Lieutencnt Governor, with pledge that the Demccrats shall support him for the United States Sen ate; Cyrns Thompson (Populist) for Secretary of State ; W. H. Worth (Pop ulis) for Treasurer ; W. A. Montgom ery (Populist) for Supreme Court Jus tice. The proposition as to Congress men is that tbe Populists shall take tbe First, Third, Fourth, and Seventh dis tricts Tbe Populist State chairman has summoned his entire State commit tee by telegraph to meet here Wednes diy. , . . - As soo3 as Populist State Chairman Ayer read the Democratic committee's proposition for complete fusion with the Demccrats, he said : "Ycu can say from me that this proposition will not be ac cepted." : ; The Democratic proposition for fusion has Caused a profound sensation in the State, and the anger of many Demo crats is intense. : The Democratic committee,' in its proposition, gives the - following as its reason lor making it : "This committee, believing that the white people of North Carolina are intensely in earnest in their desire and purpose to secure the benefits of reform for which Mr. Bryan stands, and to preserve good government in North Carolina, are prepared to Invite close alliance among all those who hold to these views. This, in our opinion, is rrnde imperative in view of the fact that tbe colored voters of tbe State have been united in a compact body in sup port of those measures for which Mc Kinley and Rassell stand. The colored people and their leaders have made the anion of white people necessary to de feat McKinleyisra and.: Russellism in North Carolina. To provide for a union of those believing in white supremacy and good government, tbe chairman ot this committee is instructed to propose to the executive committee of the Peo ple's party, as the ticket to be voted for in the coming election, the names given above " 'v- V:v - r - : The proposition ends . with these words: "For the Legislature both parties pledge their best efforts to defeat all Republican candidates to tbe Legisla ture and to elect only Democrats and Populists, and only such as are known to stand for tbe reform advocated by Mr. Bryan." Populist Chairman-Ayer gave bnt the following thia afternoon: "You can say for me, thai the proposition will not be accepted. We will not enter into any proposition whereby we lose any of our Congressmen in the First,Third, Fourth, Sixth and Seventh district!. Whose elec tion isnow assured.' -- To the question: "Are you averse to yielding the Governorship?" he replied: "To that I have nothing to say." "Influential Populists say it is entirely too late to make any change in their ticket, as it takes two weeki to get tbe news to Populists in the interior. Sen ator Butler is declared to favor the prop osition, and the Democratic Committee made the advance upon assurances from him. Republican Chairman Holtoa said: "Democrats can't ' fuse with Pops be cause Populists will not fuse with them. We will carry the State in any event for LRussell." One Cent a Word.

The scene of the play is laid in England, in the fifteenth century and deals with the life. Imprisonment and death of that famcus Qaeen. The play is not one which gives the supporting company any great ad vantage. Mile. Rhea appeared in tbe title role, Mary Stuart. She seemed to live the part she personated and her au dience lived with her. She made one forget that the famous Qacea was only being impersonated. The last act the execution scene was especially strong; Mile. ' Rhea 1 in this, appearing to the greatest advantage.

He left this morning for Shel by, where he speaks to-day. Solicitor Marshall Mottcame in yes terday and went np to Shelby with the Judge this morning. 1 ": v Judge Russell says be will be the next Governor of North Carolina whether Ms j.

If he staf s np he says he will get a plurali ty of several thousand,' and if Gutbne comes down , he claims he will get seventy-five p:r cent of the Populist vote. - -:.- .'" --.;v At Republican headquarters they are claiuiing 51 members of the lower House, place 22 as doubtful, with the possibility that the Democrats will get 20 of these, give the Populists 83 and concede the Democrats 15. Tbey themselves ac knowledge that this estimate is extrava gant, and virtually concede that all in the doubtful column will be Democrats. I asked Judge Russell what he thought his majority would be. but he declined to estimate. He said McKinley would carry the State, but wouldn't say any thing regarding majorities for votes, and let tb egenerai statement stand by itself. Mr, Mott said 10.000 for McKinley. bnt the Judge wouldn't name any figure. The Republican leaders generally are claiming the State as doubtful, but they admit privately-that McKinley has no chance in the State.: The Republican National Committee has no hope of car rying North Carolina since the fusion on the electoral ticket, and the Republican leaders in tbe State are putting up a great bluff game when they claim the State for McKinley.
