Conclualou of Thai Great Speech Began In Yeaterdav' "Citizen" The Income Tan-Sngar-Thc Pope. Financial Theories. As Senator Ransom proceeded with h is speech at the Grand opera house yes terday alternoon the audience grew more and more Interested and the good Demo cratic truths that fill from his Hps were greeted with the greatest enthusiasm. Cheer nftcrclietr interrupted the Senator and the effect of the applause was strengthened by the waving of many handkerchiefs by the Senator's admirers among the fair sex, who were present in goodly numbers. It was a worthy ova tion to a worthy Democrat. The laconic Tax. During the wur the Republican party put a tax on whiskey, on tobacco, and on incomes. They had kept the tax on whiskey and on tobacco, but they took it off the incomes of the rich. The Dem ocratic party has put that income tax back upon the surplus wealth of the plutocrats of the country. Every man who has an income exceeding &4-.000 per ear must now pav a tax to tne United States government of two percent, on the excess. This tax will raise from the shoulders of the poor, the honest, the patriotic people, $,"0,000.000 per year, and put it upon the surplus wealth oi Wall street. The Suiiar Tax. Some populistic friend wou'il ask him : Senator, ain't you iishamcd that you put a duty of 'JO percent, on sugar. No. The Republicans had made sugar rce, but they paid the sugar manufac turer nnd refiner two cents bounty on each pound of sucjar. Millionsof dollars were thus taken Inon the treasury ot the United States and put into the pockets of these manufacturers. The tax now on sugar goes into the United States treasury; the bnmty went into the pockets of the sugar trust. 11c would say something else the Dem ocratic party hail done. The Democratic, party hud reduced the expenses of this government. Economy is the grcutcst virtue in government. 1 luring the lirst year ot Cleveland's term the Democratic party had saved 38,800,000. Republi cans claimed that tins reduction was accomplished by cutting off pen sions. He would say that no just pension bad been stopped, lira saving was made notwithstanding the Democrats bad passed a river and harbor bill cur rying $12,000,000, while the Republicans had passed no river and harbor bill dur ing its Inst year in power. This shows a saving by the Dem icrntic party in its first year of about $1,000,000. The two Parti Commuted The Democratic party was not perfect, nothing earthly is, and it might be ac- used of many things, but it had ever been true to the South true to ull the people. It had stood loyally by the in terests of the seventy millionsof free men who populate this Republic. The Demo cratic party is not a sectional party. How was it with the Republican party .' For 25 years not a law was passed liv the Republican party for the good of the South. He was a southern man ami a North laroliuinn, and be could not en dorse this long night of oppression to hisscct'on. When did Uraut (and h spoke his name reverently), when did Arthur, when did Oarhild give a South- rn man an important foreign mission.' Inly one, Mr. Hunt of Louisiana. When hud the South been honored by having one ol her sons placed upon the bench ol he Supreme court ot the United Mates! bv the Republican partv .' Mr. llarn sou had given this honor to ulgc Jack son of Tennessee in almost the last hours of his administration. During Mr. Cleveland's five yc.irs' oc- cupaiiey ol the White House lie had ap pointed four supreme court justices Irom the South, and in selecting his cabinet he had taken Carlisle, Smith and Her bert from the Souib. The sneaker charged his hearers, both young and old, to stand by the party Hint stood by their section. Under Mr. Clevclnnd'sad- ministration, whether in borne or foreign iiilHiinlments, whether in burope, Asia or Africa, or on the cold borders of Can ada, wherever you lound a northern man, by his side you would find a south ern patriot. Cleveland has done abso lute nisttce to every section ot tne coun try, and without justice there can be no peace. is HCiiospect. Mr. Bnncroft, said Senator Ransom has said in bis history that North Caro linians loved liberty more than any people on earth. Would North Curo linians now turn their backs upon the nartv that had given them not only diet tv. Dtit every oicssing mat maoe uie dear to her l,70n,W0 people? Look b; ck 20 years and see what North Curo linn was under Republican rule. Our public schools were blotted out, our University in darkness, railroads nil stopped, court houses temples of injus tice, public credit gone, state oonus not worth the paper upon which they were written. The Democratic party came into power, and how was it now ? He wished be could paint tne picture as Democracy had made it. Not a man woman or child in all of Carolina's bnt dcrs, from where the waves of the Atlantic break upon llatteras to the loftv Dines of vour own mountains, but can rest in peuce nnu peneet security Our courts arc models oi lustice, no iczi: tutor bus hud a charge ot corruption iinde auainst him. there are 7.000 schools upon 7,000 bill tops, lull of hnppy children, our railroads are buy and prosperous, and our State credit is ns good as that of Massachusetts or New York. And now go to Washington go into the two houses of Congress and find there Daniels, Gordon, Harris, Faulkner, Moruan. aud my own associate. Sen ator lurvis. and not one breath of scan dal has ever touched the fair name of a Southern representative Twenty years ago the race question confronted the people oi worth Carolina Some Northern men tried to weld the negroes together in a chain ot prejudice against the white lK-oplc. Today the colored people were hnppy and prosper ous, and the white people were willingly tnxinir themselves that the negro miirht be educated. What bud the Democratic party none in all these years that was not good tor Republicans as well as themselves r The Pops. The 0000 years of tbc world's history, said the speaker, uave tested the value of liberty, and yet the l'npulist party comes along and declares thut they have found the only true way. What have the Populists done ? Have they saved you from any of the cursesof the past 20 years? No, they were not here. The Populists were mad about the finances. They had presented to the country their financial views. It amounted simply to a bad dream, a mad dream, a wild dream. There were four Populists in the Senate and ten in the House, and during the Inst session of Congress thev had introduced bills which, if thev had bien enacted into law and carried out, would ave required the expenditure of more money than is to be found upon the face of the whole earth todav. Should the money of Europe, Asia. Airica and North and south America be placed at the dis posal ot these financiers it would be a sum far too small to meet their demands for one single session of Congress. Where la The Leader 7 There is only one instance in all his tory, said Senator Ransom, of which 1 ave any knowledge, that at all resem bles the present attempt to destroy the Democratic party. The Children of Is- tel alter they bad been ground down nder the heel of Egyptian bondage, ufler they had been forced to make bricks without straw, alter their children had been torn from them, after the plagues had fallen upon l'bnraoli, niter the Red Sea had opened bclore them that they might go through on dry laud, alter the pillar of cloud had watched them bv day, and the pillar of fire had guaidcd tucm by night, alter the rocks had been smitten to give them drink when thirsty, and tne heavens had rained bread lor their food, after Sinai had smoked, and the law had been given them from the mouth of God himself after nil these things, there were those who budded a golden calf at the base of the mountain nd demanded a captain to lead tlinn back Into bondage and degradation. Where is the man who will call for acai;- tain to lend them back into the Ucpuh- ican days from '05 to '70 ? T o Be Vet Done. "And now, my countrymen," said the speaker, "when the next Cougicst of the nitcd States shall meet, when its Sena tors nnd Representatives shall conic up from the people. I believe that the Demo cratic partv, the party that has repealed odious election laws, the partv that lias given us a new tariff law, will take up the financial oucstion, and will give us a measure that will give us go'd, silver, and paper money redeemable m gold ami silver, and then will have been redeemed every pledge, in both letter and spirit, made the people by the Chicago plat- lorm.
