cuhhcU In an Informal Wuv.
Hon. W. T. Crawford iirrivcM in Ashc
rille yesterday from Wayncsvillc, mid de
livered a short address liefore the teach
ers' institute todav.
Mr. Crawford is in fine health and
spirits, and tips the lienm at I'.IO pounds.
Since the adjournment of conprcss he
has lieeu spending his time at his home,
reading a seneral course of literature,
particular attention being paid to the
more impoitunt measures tlt.it will prob
ably come before congress at its ensninu
session, and upon which he will be culled
to act.
In an informal talk with Tmk Citizen
last night, Congicssnian Crawford said
that in addition to his reading, a consid
erable portion of his time hail been SKiit
in attending to his correspondence, which
was quite heavy, particularly in this dis
trict. The applications for appointment
to positions have not Ikcii so numerous
of late, he said. This is due to the fact
that they arc linding oiu that a demo
cratic congressman can do but little in
the way of securing positions with all
the department at Washington and the
White House Idled by republicans.
The MpeHkei-Khlp.
When asked as to who he thought
would likely be chosen sicnkcr of the
next house, Mr. Crawford said it would
lie difficult to say with anything like ac
curacy, hut, said he, "there will be no
difficulty in timliim some one who is will
ing In take the place I have given no
pledges in this maun " said Mr. Craw
ford, "as I do not believe in a man pledg
ing himself in advance upon a matter of
this character. Many things may trans
pire lici ween this time and the ossein
Ming of eoiigroH u hi h might make it
necessary to vole lea a ui.ni whom I may
not now pieler, and who may not then
lie my iK'isoual choice. In tact," saiil he,
' I shall vote for the man I deem best
qualilied for the pi.iec."
Mr. Crnwlord spoke of his high
, erai. al r.garl for Judge Cri-p, and
also lor Mi. Mills but said he was iindei
110 obligation to vote lor cither. Dm
thing may be said, howtver, with cir
taiutv, and that is that Mr. Cia .vfor.!
will vote for a Southern man lor snnkcr,
other things being equal.
The Hllver UueHiioii.
Mr. Crawford is very decidedly ol the
opinion that the trend of public senti
ment at this time is towards the passage
of a free silver coinage bill by the iiieoiu
ing congress, and he will vote for the
measure. As to the exact provisions ol
the bill, he laid no one could
speak with precision nt this date.
He thinks that not only will
the house pass u silver bill, but he is just
as sure that the senate will concur, and
equally certain that 1'rcsident Harrison
will veto it. 'Such action," said he,
"will force the silver issue in the next
presidential light, as nil platforms are
practically made by congress, the mem
bers of which come straight from tht
lcoplc."
The Tarlft.
Mr. Crawford thinks the tat ill' will lie
early brought liefore congress at the
coming session, and that a bill will he
introduced and passed. "And that bill,"
said he, "will go a step lievond the Mills
bill in the reduction of duties. When
the Morrison bill was introduced," said
Mr. Crawford, "it created a great howl
hy reason of its sweeping reduction, and
yet the Mills bill went far beyond the
Morrison bill, and even the 'Mills bill
would not 8atislv the public sentiment ol
many on tins important question.
The Third Purlv.
"I do not think there will he anv third
party," (aid Mr. Crawford. "In fact,
there will lie no necessity for it, if the
democr;itic party satisfies the Farmers'
alliance on the silver question. As to the
tariff," said he, "the democrats and the
alliance arc one, und from present indica
tions it would seem as d there can lie no
doubt nut that the national democratic
platform will satisfy every reasonable
demand on the coinage of silver."
Speaking ol the contest in Ohio be
tween Governor Campliell and Major
Mckinley, Mr. Crawford ihoin-hl that
if Mr. Campbell should beclcctcd it would
almost certainly lead to bis nomination
lor the presidency by the democrats. The
opposition of the Cincinnati democrats,
however, and their tailurc to allow
Campliell's nomination to be made unan
iinoui'., necessarily made the success of
the democratic ticket a matter of grave
Mount 111 tnno.
"Cioyernor Campbell is a splendid
man," said Mr. Crawford, "and will
make a gallant light, but it looks now
as if lie would have to get considerable
help Irom the tanners on the lice stiver
plank ot his plnllorui if he is to pull,
inrougn.
Mr. Crawford will return home in the
morning, mid during the next four weeks
will give a considerable portion ol his
tunc towards interesting the pcnple of
Hnywood in getting up a creditable dis
play ot her products ol wood, minerals,
Iruits and other crops lor exhibition at
the exposition at Kulcigh this fall.

At h:.io tins morning tnc teachers in
attendance at t lie Huncontiic county in
stitute organized an association for the
.ui pose of better promoting the cause ol
education in the western counties ot the
state.
The ollicers are its follows: President,
John W. Stai nes, Asheville, N. C; Secre
tary, Prol. Walter Hurst, Harnardsville
N. C.; Treasurer, Prof. I . S. lillis, Fair
view, N, C. Vice-Presidents, the couuty
superintendents ot the thirteen counties
west ol the lilue Kulge.
These county superintendents arc to be
presidents ol their county associations,
all ol which arc tn be tributary to the W
N. C. Association. The whole plan n
this organization will be given later. It
is intended now that the W. N. C. Assiv
eintiou shall hold annual meetings, the
county meetings to lie held at times
agreed to by them.

Work of Today-To Help the Ne.
It to A Funny Alahamlan.
Mrs. Kichard Webb, of Savannah, Ca.,
conducted the devotional exercises, in the
W. C. T. U. school of methods, laying lie
fore the workers the question: "Have
ye received the Holv Ghost since ve be
lieved?" Her gentle exhortations were
convincing for the necessity of the visita
tion of the Spirit before u blessing may
be expected on any human effort in the
Lord's work.
The next subject taken iqi was work
among the colored people along the
evangelistic line, Mrs. J. li. Ray, of Ashe
ville suiicriiitendciit nf this department
fir the assembly, presented a well digest
ed, practical method of evangelization
adapted to nil needs. First of nil, it is
necessary that this work shall lie done
by colored people. So Mrs. Kay endeav
ored to ha vetheen-o)eriitionof the negro
clergy, and for this purpose secured the
official sanction of the board of bishops
of the African Methodist lipiscopal
church Her plans also have theendorse
mcnl of Dr. J. C. Price, of the African
Zion church, Itishop llalsev, nf the col
ored Methodist Ivpisenpnl church, mid
Bishop Turner, of the A. M. 15. church.
The plan is two fold home and foreign
or national nnd international. The na
tional moves through existing organiza
tions as found leaching in Sunday
schools, church and missionary societies,
endeavoring to tasten upon exicdicnts
acceptable to both races. Mrs. Kay's
suggestions were unanimously adopted
as a basis of effort in all 'he southern
states.
The second hour of the session was oc
cupied by a spirited parliamentary drill
l)V Miss West. These drills will lie con
tinued even morning at Hi o'clock during
the sitting of the school. One night lie
lore the ladies disband the gentlemen
will lie invited to come to a parliamen
tary drill and see if they cannot learn
something.
Miss Slack followed with kindergar

ing the proficiency which the lingers of
mere babes may attain by a step-by-step
development nun application of the
powers of observation.

THK TKACIIKHH' INST1TITK.
Rev. A. I. JiiHtlce, Prof. Mclver
nnd Hon. W . T. Crawford Hot-alt.
There was an interesting time at the
Teachers' institute this morning. At the
regular hour Key. A. 1. Justice oiiened
with religious services, alter which Prof,
Mclver developed the study of geography
mil the natural, practical, useful method
of leaching it. His presentation of the
lillicullies which boys and men, too.
have in public speaking was both hu
morous and sensible. He iiftirined that
no boy or man has been proerly educa
ted who cannot stand on his feet and tell
any number of people in an intelligent
and easy manner any thing he knows and
w ishes to say !
After the morning recess Prof. Mclver
addressed a house full of people on the
relation ol the people to education. In
this splendid nddress, ull the objections
that ignorance nnd indifference can pos
sibly invent against education bv the
state, were most completely and fully an
swered, and if great good was not done,
it is the fault of the audience. Hon. W.
T. Crawford, of Haywood, text ad
dressed the large audience in his own
Iclicitious manner. It is a strong
point made when our statesmen will
take the held lor public schools. When
they all learn that this is the great public
question of our government, then the
public schools will be able to accomplish
tlieir mission, and the masses will lie ed
ucated.

The Whole Hatter of Calling- Out

Knoxvii.le, Tenn., July 24. There is
no change in the situation n Rriceville
this forenoon. The troops still remain
in Ktinxville and all is quiet at Coal
creek, and Rriceville. Another and final
conference will probably be held this af
ternoon between the Governor and rep
resentatives of the miners.
It is known that Governor Buchanan
will not, under any circumstances, se
riously consider anything which has the
apicarance of compromising the state.
The opinion ol Attorney General Pickf
le, mnde public this morning, is that the
governor cannot call out the militia but
that they may be used as a posse. This
complicates the situntion as the militia
feel they are under no more obligation to
serve as a porse than other citizensof the
state, nnd that it is a lowering of the dig
nity of the military branch of the state
service. If the memliers of the militia nil
lie again ordered to llriccvillc the ques
tion may be raised, and it muv possibly
become prejudicial to militurydiscipline.
HTANOH ON THK PLATFORM,
liov, Campbell, of Ohio, TalkH
Politics llrleflv.
Prnsnt Kii, Pn.. July 1'4-. Gen, Camp
bell, ol Ohio, was here a day or two ago
and was asked in regard to ex-President
Cleveland scnking for him: ''Will it
not Ik- rather embarrassing for him to
speak in Ohio in view of the free coinage
plank in the platform?"
"Oh, I hardly think so. He will doubt
less confine himself to the discussion of
the tariff question, und that is the main
issue, anyway."
"How will the free coinage plank affect
the vote of the party in the state?"
"1 think it will make us votes. The Al
liance and the people's party have also
declared in favor of free coinage. Some
of the silver men 'vill vote for the people's
party and some will vote the democratic
ticket. I do not think it will draw any
votes from us."
"1 presume that the plank in the plat
sorm represents your exact sentiments
on Ihe silver question," suggested the re
porter, "Not exactly. I am not. going back
on the platform, but it is not just as I
would linvc preferred it. The party in
the state, you know, is almost evenly di
vided, t he silver plank being adopted by
a vote of 4(10 to 3U0, and I should have
advised a less radical expression. I
thought it a mistake tohnvcthequcstion
projected so prominently into the cam
paign, but I acquiesced in the desire of
the majority."
"Would you kindly state the position
you should have liked the party to tuke
in its platform?"
"I thought the party should have de
clared in favor of such legislation as
would keep both metals in circulation
and put them on a parity liefore the
country. Hut 1 am standing on the plat
form of the party," he added.
"Now, Governor," continued the re
porter, "the reports from the south indi
cate that the people down there are not
satisfied with Cleveland on account of
his stand on the silver question. They
need a candidate from a doubtful state,
and they have their eyes on you as a
representative of the silver wing of the
party. Will you "
"That's very likely," interrupted the
Governor," but it I should not win in
Ohio this fall I would not he eligible as a
candidate at all. Besides, the silver
question mav be settled this winter.
am not making any plans beyond this
lull's campaign. It is enough to occupy
mv full attention."
There are some eastern patters, too,
that arc suggesting Cleveland and Cam
bell as an alliterative ticket, and one that
would give both wings of the party rep
resentation on the subject of silver.
Would you accept the second place?"
"The vice-presidency is not a position
that 1 should think any man would
hunker for," answered the Buckeye
statesman, dryly.
