FRIDAY, May 3, 1895.
One of the best bills offered during the
last Legislature, was offered by Hon. J.
F. Bernhardt, Representative from Lin
coln county. His bill was that the Leg
islature should not meet only every four
years. Mr. Reinhardt though a demo
crat, yet he doeB not endorse all his pa'--ty
did on many things Hickory Mer
cury. But Mr. Reinhardt's bill met
with no favor with the Pops. He
told the writer the other day
that the Pop members instead of
favoring this change wanted to
meet every year. He also said
that Lee Whitener, and Linney
of Alexander were the only Pops
who wanted to economize in any
thing, and that every other Pop
in the Legislature wanted to
spend every dollar in sight or
that was likely to come in sight
under the increased rate of taxa
tion during the next two years.
He said Mr. Whitener appeared
to be out of place and ashamed
of the crowd he was with.
It would not be necessary to
make a gap of four years to show
that the Mercury had modified
its views on a dozen questions as
it charges the Enterprise of do
ing on the silver question since
1891. In 1891 the Mercury was
a Democratic paper. In 1892 it
had flopped clear over to the
Pops. Even in May 1892 it en
dorsed the ticket nominated by
the State Democratic convention.
A month later it followed its
boss, little Mary Ann, and put a
different ticket at the head of the
-"paper. It is an honor to be ac
cused of following the leadership
of the great Cleveland. A man
who would follow the lead of
Mary Ann Butler has no redeem,
ing qualities. But the very idea
of a populist of any station, no
matter how low, accusing a
Democrat of inconsistency on
any subject is the absurdest
thing in the world. Professing
to be free coinage men they voted
down a free coinage resolution in
the Legislature, professing to be
reformers they joined hands with
the Republicans and increased the
tax on everything that is taxed
in the State but billiard tables
and elected Jeter Prichard, an
apostle of McKinley, who says
he would not accept a nomina
tion for President of any party
that would put free coinage in its
platform, for United States Sen
ator. The Enterprise accepted
the Democratic platform of 1892
in good faith and still stands by
it. It is for bi-metalism, as that
platform declares. It believes in
coining silver dollars that will be
equal to gold dollars or any
other dollars. But it is opposed
to the single standard silver
money as much as it is opposed
to the single standard gold idea.
Free and unlimited coinage at 16
to 1 means silver mono-metal-ism.
It means that we will have
two kinds of money, one only
passing for half the value of the
other2 Every note made will then
call for gold and every dollar
earned by a working man will be
a silver dollar. It will require
him to pay two dollars for every
one he owes. The fight on the
silver question will be between
bi-metalists on the one side and
silver mono-metalists on the
other. The Enterprise, as ever
before, will be found on the side
of the bi-metalists.
"A BAD DAY'S ffOBK,
Under the above head the fol
lowing editorial appears in the col
umns of the Charlotte Observer:
The making of a bond of $91,
000 in the city yesterday in the
case of an embezzling bank cash
ier for whom a bond of only $15,
000 was needed, was a regreta
ble occurrence. No matter how
charming his personal qualities,
sight should never for a moment
be lost of the fact that this man
is a criminal, and deserves the
same sympathy and the same
Imnishment, except in a much
arger degree, that is measured
out to the poor white man who
steals a side of meat or the negro
who steals a dominecker chicken.
Men who have boys to raise need
to have care about how they
palliate the crime of ex-Cashier
Holland, while those who have
not should still remember that
they owe the weight of their in
fluence to the cultivation of a
moral tone in society. Charlotte
gets a bad . advertisement this
morning in the statement to the
world of the size of this bond,
and any other trusted official
who has the handling of the
money of other people and who
may be contemplating the ap
propriation of a part of it to his
own purposes will find great en
couragement in this incident of
yesterday in Charlotte.
This sentiment fits our. taste
exactly. The leaiency with
which the Jaw and friends deal
with such men are the cause of
its frequent occurrence. The
whole business puts us in mind
of the actions of an indulgent
parent to a big overgrown, spoilt
boy.
o
The Poet Names a Candidate.
Charlotte Observer.
Not long ago the Washington
Post created almost a political een.
sation it at least startled the pcliti
cans of the country by proposing
that a Southern man be named as
the leader of the next light for the
presidency of the United States.
The Post advanced many good rea
sons for the faith that was in it ; it
told how the South had borne the
brunt of the battle in all the politicel
campaigns since the war, and had
. 1 at- A 1
won ail victories wnicn ine panv
could claim. The PoBt asked why,
therefore, Bhould the South be for
bidden a place at the feast and a
share in the f raits of triumphs which
its own valor and devotion had made
possible.
Strange to fay the Post was ap
plauded -by the Northern press for
its position, while at the South it
found hardly the least sympathy.
With surprising unanimity the South
ern papers and people said the South
did Dot care to present a presidential
Democratic candidate, to be useless
ly sacrificed on the altar of politics.
The Post having been so rash as to
favor such a proposition, was asked
to please be kind enough to name
the candidate from the South who
could successfully lead his party in
the next presidential campaign.
The paper complies with this des
mand with the same boldness with
which it advanced its first propo.
sition. In proposing a candidate for
the party, the Post makes the fol
lowing very neat little nominating
speech :
Several of our contemporaries,
however, have asked us, and strange
enough all these queries have come
from the South, where there is to b
found a Southern man big enough,
strong enough, broad enough to
meet the expectations of the party
and the requirements oi the position.
Just why Southern newspapers
should be so distrustful of Southern
men, or just what they have eeen in
Democratic leadership of late years
to lead them to the erection of very
lofty standards of patriotism and
and statesmanship, we do not know
and cannot imagine. The fact re
mains that these expostulations and
misgivings have proceeded wholly
from the South, while Northern ut
terances have been, almost without
exception, favorable to the idea ad
vanced by the Post. We shall not
stop to argue this very strange con
dition of things. A much more in
teresting question presents itself
that of naming a Southern Democrat
who, at this juncture, would repres
ent the deepest fueling and meet the
most pressing needs of the Ameri
can people. We have been chal
lenged to do this, and we accept the
challenge by asking whether any
fault is to be found with James B
EuBtis, our present ambassador to
France. We should like some one
to tell us in what respect of patriot
ism, statesmanship, courage, culture,
experience, information, and popular
thoughtful and feeling, James B.
Euetie, of Louisiana, falls short of the
very highest and most exacting re
quirements.
Mr. Eustis has been in public life
for many years. He has served in
the Legislature of his own State and
in the United States Senate. He is
a student, a traveler, a man of ele
gant culture, and at the same a man
of the people in his sympathies and
learnings. As a party man he is
stalwart. He sets no value on the
lily-handed loiters of the world, he
takes counsel with no carping Mug
wump, he loves not the cuckoo's
feeble chirp. He believes in men of
brawn and brain and self respect.
He believes in party organization, in
fair fighting in the field of politics,
in rewards to the victor, in the peo
ple's right to govern themselves, in
the people's wisdom and sincerity
and justice. He understands the
questions now agitating the public
mind questions of domestic or in
ternational import. HiB speeches on
the silver question during the first
Cleveland administration show that
he is in touch with popular feeling
on that issue. His speech in Lon
don the other night, on the occasion
of the American Society banquet,
shows that he shares the deepest
convictions and the most vivid and
intense aspirations of the American
people as regards our relations with
foreign countries, and our proper at
titude toward them.
After listening to the Post's elo
quence we feel inclined to say "AN
most thou persuadest me," but calm
er reasoning must prevail, and we
join the great majority of. Southern
journals in their belief that it is yet
too early even at this late day to
pat a Southern Democratic staudard
bearer to the front
If you take a paper pay for it.

Atlanta, G.i., April 21. Speaker
Claries F. Crisp, in an interview at
his bomi in America declared bina
etlf tc-Jayfo a ftsff correspondent
of the Constitution in favor of the
free coinage of si!v?r. Ha believes
the Democrats shcu'd ncmioata a
Western man with a military record
for President and says the party
should not comiua'e Mr. Cleveland
for a third term that no man
should have a third term. The
Speaker is in fairly good health, but
his physician has ordered lam to
spend the summer qaietly and he
expects to leave shortly for Asbe
ville. "The platform," said Mr. Crisp,
observantly, "should declare f r the
free coinage of silver direct, and
with h set of principles responding
to the demands of the people ; we
should select some man with a mili
tary record, identified with the dom
inant sentiment that now controls
the party, and go forth with cocfi
dence to the victory which the peo
ple always gire those who are brave
enough to fight -or it. The only
fear I have is, not that the people
are not in favor of free silver, but.
that the free silver people, who are
in the majority, may divide into fac
tions, running two or three candi
dates, in which event the election
would be thrown into the House
which would elect a Republican.
"Such a contest as I have outlined
would cause many people to make
new party alignments. There are
Democrats strongly wedded to the
gold theory, and as many Republi
cans just as stroDgly wedded to free
silver. Of course these men would
have to choose between their old
party and their convictions on this
issue. The Democrats of the East
want gold ; the Republicans of the
West want silver. The re align
ments will be as interesting as thej
will be puzzling, but to the lottery
of politics the whole issue must be
committed.
"Of course,' said Mr. Crisp, "there
is a contingency in which the people
might not be called upon to settle
the question that is, the possible
action of an international confer
ence. That would be the best and
easiest method of re-establishing
silver, and with less of the element
of experiment, etc. If such a con
ference should be called and it took
action restoring silver, so that the
people would be satisfied then we
would have the final issue for 189t3.
In the meantime., however, the peo
ple of the United States will be
moving along to that result in their
own constitutional way. The people
want the free coinage of silver. I
am in fayor of its free coicage, as I
have always been, and the Demo
cratic voter3 will declare for it next
year."
"There is some talk," it was sug
gested, "that you may be the candi
date for the presidency next year.''
"I see Siid Mr. Crisp, smilingly,
"that for want of a better subject
many newspapers are printing edito
rials on that line. Not in the life
time of the generation now passing
off the stage, will a Southern man be
elected. The question of residence,
for a long time to come, will be a
controlling one, and no man who
was ever in the Confederate army
army can aspire to that officp. We
should get our next candidate from
the West.

Washtxgtok, April 27. Tang To,
the Chinese minister, culled upon
Secretary Gresham at half past 3
o'clock to-day, and half an hour later,
within a few moments after Tang Tu
departed, the Japanese minister, Mr.
Kurino, who came by appointment,
was closeted with the Secretary.
Both visits related to the clause in
the treaty of peace relating to the
occupation by the Japanese of the
"Regent's Sword" promontory and
the Corean bay coast from Port
Arthur to the Talu river, to which
Russia has so strenuously objected.
It is now understood that Russia is
endeavoring to induce China t o re
sist the demand, which was agreed
to by Li Hung Chang.
The United States have declined
to be drawn into the controversy to
such an extent as to take sides, but
will continue its good officep, as in
the past, to secure peace between
China and Japan.
The United States ministers at
Peking and Tokio, Mr. Denby and
Mr. Dun, were largely instrumental
in securing the agreement between
the two countries, it being wholly
due to their efforts that the plenipo
tentiaries were brought together.
During the preliminaries they made
China acquainted with Japan's re
quirements and through them the
terms were practically arranged in
general terms before the Shimonose
ki conference met.
As the United States was the con
fident of both parties, and being
familar with the arrangements from
the beginning, the assumption is
made that this government approved
them. Therefore no reasonable
ground seems to present itself for
United States interference now.

Th Swwp of the Silver Sentlmsat.

"Tba ewaep of the silver senti
ment" out West appears to bega;u
iag in momentum. Il.iaoia appears
to be tha pivotal Stats in this move
merit. The papers hava, of late,
contained almost daily report? of tha
formation of sound money dab in
that State, and the hops9 of the "gold
standard sympathizers all over the
couatry had beea raised to a high
pitch, and they have bgunto believe
that a successful resistance might ba
offered to the free eilver tidl wave
in IllinoK Their hopes, however,
will be doomed to disappointment if
the prophecy of aa able and rising

Speaking of the silver sentimei.t
throughout Illinois, Mr. Palmer strid;
"The sentiment in favor cf the

"It seetna to me utteily impossi
