Reynolds iu thecontenipt case against liim before Judge Thus. A. Jones, Judge J.H.Merrimoneritieiscd my conduct as a grand jiu or in very severe terms, and endeavored to place me iu a very bad light before the court and the public. I leave it to the public to sny how forjudge, Merrimou was warranted and how manly it was in him to thus attack a man who was not present and whose hands he well knew were tied and whose lips he knew were sealed by the sanctity of a solemn oath. 1 um nwnrc that the public has had a surfeit of this matter and 1 am not dis posed to urge it to the nauseating point. 1 only wish to add u few words to what my friend Mr. 11. A. Gudger paid to the court iu my behalf. If it is possible to so far remove the obligation of secrecy as to authorize the placing ut every mem ber of that grand jury, as well as every witness who appeared before it, upon the stand to testify as to my conduct throughout this whole matter, then 1 shall demand that it be done and thnt the conduct of at least some other of the jurors be investigated at the same time. While I mav not be allowed to speak ofanything that occurred within our body 1 can certainly say without impro priety that a particular l lung dm not occur within our bodv, especially when it had been stated in open court by one of the jurors that this particular thing did occur. It will be remembered that at one time when the grand i iry was called before the court in regard to thecontenipt mat tcr I asked the judge if the grand jury would be kept together until the whole matter was investigated, and he replied that they would. Mv object for asking this question was to ascertain wlietliir 1 would hove an opportunity of request ing that every member ol the grand jury be put upon the stand and examined under oath touching this whole mutter, and especially to settle the niattir as to whether any one had gotten up while the examination of a witness was going on and brought up the matter ol a juror having been tampered with as slated to the court bv the foreman. I assert that no such thing occured as stated; and 1 leave it to nil the grand jurors as well as the witness referred to, to say what is the truth of the matter. I am not only willing but anxious that everything connected with this matter from beginning to end be made public, as lar as it can possibly be none, and mat the part that each and every man con nectcd in any way with it has played shall be laid bare before the public gaze I have delayed the publication of this card some days because 1 had reason to believe that another person tuniiliar with all the facts would publish u state ment which would obviate the necessity of my saying anything. As to the state ments in'Mr. Reynolds' affidavit founded on information alleged to have been de rived from Mr. J. X. Hell, 1 can only say that Mr. Hell emphatically and indig nantly denies them all and says thai they are totally and absolutely false from beginning to end. This denial lie has not only made to me in writing, but he makes it fully and without reserve to every one wlio sees proper to speak to him about the matter. I do trust that the day may sp.-edily come when every fact connected with this unlortunnte affair may be laid be fore the public and when every man in any way connected with it may be made to stand in his proper place in public es timation. J. S. T. Dutnl. How much reliance is to be placed iu their Democracy, when the crucial test of self interest is applied. We have thought nil along that wc could trust our own Democracy when political issues properly the subject of party cout?sf was involved. We have thought all along that wc knew from what element ol the Democratic party Mr. Pearson ex pected to draw whatever support he will get horn it. Mr. Uudgcr may calm his fears. The support Mr. 1'earson will get from the Democratic party willbeex eeedingly weak in numbers, and weaker in point ol weight and influence. AYorm Democrat. Did .Not lt:flle To Act. l;mi'oH Tun CrniiN: In a letter u I Mr. J. M.Gudgerns published in Tin; CmzKN ol yesterday, Mr. Uudgcr makes the statement that several members ol the executive committee had refused to act. 1 wish to say that so lar as I am con corned, this is not true. The only invi tation 1 ever had to net with the com mittee wa3 given while 1 was confined to my room with sickness, and, as I un derstand, was the only meeting the com mittee ever held dco. S.

By a vote ol 1ST to one, six of the 1 1- Democrats being absent, the Democratic Senators in caucus vestcrdav adopted a resolution agreeing to suppnrt the tariff bill of the finance committee, including the compro mise nincndniciits that have been agreed upon. The vote showed what those who had called the caucus expected. The roll was called in order to place all on record and '.'' seven senators voted in lavor of the resolution and and one senator illilli against it. The vote was received with genuine gratification as many of the senators believed it signified that the tariff bill would pass. In the Senate today -Mr. Vest, member of the riiiancc committee, presented the amendments to the tariff bill agreed upon iu this conference. They all relate to the income tax to be collected from coipora tions, providing for a tax ol per ecu1, on net profits or income ( above ordinary expenses i ol all banks, trusts, railroads, insurance and otlur companies, not to apply, however, to building and loan as sociations that make loans to thcirshare holdcrs. The amendments were laid on the table and ordi red printed.

I want to say it will pay from a financial standpoint. This bodyot representatives wi I number from Ut) to 1 .",'.) besides their tnmilics. Suppose they leave only Sl."i apiece here that will be nearly "s:;,ono. That is putting it at a very low estimate, for they will be here four or live days. It will pay in another wav in advei lisim; our city. There will be people from l!h different states, besides from allovcr this State, and if we cntertai'i them nicely wc all know that it will do more to adver tise this town than Sl.onu worth ot lit erature. 1 hen Asheville will lie enter taining an organization that has done lis much or more than any other organi zation to uphold the American uistitu Hons, especially the schools. Wc believe I the people ol Au viile knew the prm ciples ol our order thev would not hesi tate to give lihcrallv to entertain tins noble body that is to meet here in June. This order has met every attack that has been made on our public schools in this country, and has il iwned their ndver sai v iu every case. We did not think we would have to call on the good people ol Asheville lor tins purpose when we in vited them here, but owing to the hard times and the scarcity ol money wc arc obliged to call on the people to help us. We only ask lor .U.jU, and wc hope when the committee waits on the citv.'iis thev will respond as liberally as they can and we know thev will never regret it. b'eo. . iUinihmu Tanglefoot Sticky A Repls to Mr, !ndcr.

In view ol the Inct that wc served on n committee with Mr. Gudger to prepare the call tor the mass meeting, m the preparation of which betook the lending part; and inasmuch ns he lias publicly stated that misrepresentations had been made to him about the convention and that it was a scheme to turn the county and city over to the Republicans, all of which statements he makes without giv inc his authority, leaving the impression that all this scheme was being carried out bvtbe Democrats who lomed in the mass meeting call; and ns wc ore proud of the part we took m this can, wc wish inns publicly to state that any insinuation on the part of Mr. Gudger that he was drawn into this movement by any misrepresentation on our urt is nbso- utc v Iu sc.
