This is $2,500 in addition to the

was a salary grab which buried a
host of Republican politicians a few
years ago and this later salary grab
will cost many a congressman his
seat in next year's great red hot re
form campaign.
Our Washington correspondent
asked a few weeks since why the
Democrats did not investigate the
charge that Cheatham and other
Congressmen had joined with the
Raiiroads to defraud the government
in the mail contracts. If the Dem

We ask again why don't the Demo

Whenever a member of the last
L-njblaiure is aeked about the action
of that body with reference to the
Alliance charter, he says 0h, we
did not repeal Hie charter we simply
amended, it." Hut let the jople re
member that every inember of the
House roted to repeal the charter
and that the Senate had agreed to
do the same thing. And the Senate
would have kept iU promise, if the
officers of the Alliance had not put
that body in a hole. It was no sense
of right or promptings of conscience
that prevented the Senate voticg to
reteal the charter out right, but
fear that they would hurt the
"dear party" by their ill advised
haste and injustice. Hut the amend

pose even plainer than the

Are you a reformer. Are you a
fighting and working reformer? The
world loves or at least respects and
admires the man who fights and
works for his cause and what he be
lieves. The world has a contempt
for the man who believes nothing or
who will not fight and work for
what he does believe. Now if you
will wokk for The Caucasian we
will fight for the cause of reform.
To-day a man must be gained at
home before he will go to the polls
aud vote for reform. Send The
Caucasian to his home and it will
gain him. Truth will gain every
honest man. You give ua the ear
of the people and we will do the rest.
Are you a Democrat T Then are
you not in favor of each township
electing one of its voters to serve on
the Board of County Caanvassers T
Will this not be more Democratic,
than for the Judges and Registrars to
appoint one of their own number to
perform such important duties?
Then why did the last Legislature
refuse to pass a law providing for
this f Such an amendment to the
election law was offered, but the
Legislature refused to even consider
it. Why ! Because the men who
went there with a Democratic label on
them and voted that way, are hypo
crites and deceivers, they are not
Democrats. They are opposed to an
honest election and will help to steal
votes when they get a, chance,
The Democratic party know that
the negro vote was largely counted
for the Democratic ticket last fall.
The negroes either voted the Demo
cratic ticket or the Democrats stole
their votes. Their guilty conscience
makes them cry "wolf "at honest men.
They are constantly charging a bar
gain between the Populists and the
Republicans. They speak of it the
"unholy combination." Now sup
pose the white Republicans were to
act with the Populists and the Dem
ocrats were to take r steal the negro
vote. Which combination would be
the most unholy ? The Democratic
combination according to Dr. Kings
bury will be called the "Black and
1X1 u.
Every day you will hear a certain
class of men abusing this paper.
The Caucasian is telling the truth
and giving the facts. Now those
who abuse the paper belong to the
class who do not want the truth
told. ,They want to keep the people
'n the dark. The Caucasian is
fighting to correct wrongs, those
who are not in favor of right, are
opposed to The Caucasian. They
abuse it. because they are not able to
answer our argument, or to deny the
facts which we are publishing. We
expect these men to abuse us, we
would be disappointed if they did
not
Senator Teller in a lengthy illus
trated interview in the San Francis
co Examiner speaks with true free
silver aash and vim. He informs
the people of the Pacific coast that
the Sherman act will not be repealed
during the next session of congress ;
that he never liked the bill and re
garded it as a miserable makeshift
for free coinage ; but now it was
there, it would stay on the statute
books until the enemies of silver sur
render to the inevitable restoration
of free silver coinage.
The Courier-Journal, Mr. Carl
isle's home organ, asserts :
"The money of the country is se

There are iust eizhty-three indi

there are just 8,30o men, women

indolence and want of business tact

That is too true, it will be so just SO
long as there is a disposition on the
part of those whose business it is to
give "equal rights to all and special
privileges to none," disregarding
this almost divine injunction. And
because we are advocating that doc
trine, the people are told that we
are trying to breed discontent, and
stir up and bring about a bad state
of feeling among the masses. We
are trying to educate the peop'e to
think for themselves and to fit aud
prepare themselves for the great con

when their rights must be accorded
them or somebody is to get hurt.

CAPT. LLOYD SCORES A 1'OINT.
l.For Tiik Caucasian.
Taeboro, N. C, May lGth '93.
A report has been going the rounds
of the papers to the effect that mem
bers of Congress will be denied pat
ronage for their constituents, by the
President, unless they surrender
their views on the silver question,
and submit to the repeal at the
Sherman law.
In the event of the repeal of this
law will a substitute be offered by
those who advocate the gold stan
dard? I have never seen any state
ment to that effect Its repeal means
n gold standard for this country
unless the free silver advocates right
the iniquitous fraud of 1873, and
restore silver to its ancient and right
ful place, to a parity of 16 to 1.
1 hat gold has appreciated 33 per
cent since silver was demonetized in
73 no monometalist can deny or
disprove.
ihe amount of bullion to a silver
dollar js worth only 04 cents iu gold
to-day. H hyr Because by denying
iice coinage oi silver at ine mints its
bullion value immediately sink's.
The value of gold would sink imme
diately if bullion were denied free
coinage at the mints. This proposi
tion can not be disproved. It is but
natural and reasonable.
The "debased" 64 cent dollar per-
formes its requisite function in pay
ing debt3 where gold is not stipula
ted in the coutract
If a law were passed making 100
grains of silver a legal tender dollar
it would be satisfactory to the mass
es. The value of money is regulated
by law.
A contention is made that if silver
is admitted to free coinage the ratio
should be change to 20 to 1. What
would be the effect of such a change
in the ratio? . Would not the silver
dollars, now in circulation (which
measured by gold are only worth 64
cents) have to be redeemed for 64
cents, making the owner loose the
difference?
Could the government afford to
buy silver bullion, and redeem our
present silver dollars, containing
412 grains, with a silver dollar,
containing 520 grains? To do such
a thing would be an absurdity.
u the President 8 policy is to co
erce the Representatives by refusing
them patronage, and if the latter
obey his behest they will find them
selves, like Othello, with their occu
pation goue. James B. Lloyd.

Australia is gasping m the throes
of financial despair and England is

Did you ever hear B. F. Orady

dear people hard earned tax dollars "
ell do we remember how the fcaid
n. t . eloquent jaws tpoxe to us
about how salaries, from the Presi
dent down, were to be reduced under
that bill of his. This was during lat
summer's campaign. Well do oar
faithful ears recall how he told us of
voting for the Holeznan resolution by
wtiicn ne took a pistol-gnp pledge
that the peoples tax money should
not be voted away extra vigantly.
This was also during last summer' n
campaign. Our ears . did tingle and
our eyes peeled themselves at the
signi oi uis Trraia cnmDing zowam
the skies like steam every time the
taxation question bobbed up.
This was during last year's earn
paign. Bat now that the election is
over and "Ihe dear people have
been duly hum-bagged, what does it
matter about salaries anyhow?
bucn statesmen as Daniel V eb-
ster, Thomas H. Benton and Jeffer

people iu Congress for $2,500 a year
without grumbling, but the said B.

that even $5,000 is not enough for a

Editor Caucasian: Seeing that
Brother Cy Thompson was billed to
speak at Smithfield last Saturday,
and it being ration day, I concluded
would kill two birds with one
stoue; get next weeks rations and
hear Brother Thompson. So I had
wife ect an early breakfast and
had old lione hitched up to the cart
and went over. I had never seen
Cy, aud I asked brass band Tom
Ma sy to point him out to me, and
he did. Well I must confess I was
somewhat disappointed in the looks
of the man, 1 expected to see a big
due looKing sort ot teliow. 1 imag
ined he tavored Bill Robins, but he
don't. He's red headed and hard
looking for a fact, but he is like a
singed cat, he deceives his looks. I
had seen the Herald of last week
and Woodall had told what the
Dr. would say, and signified what
he was going to ask him, so I ex
pected that he would be on hand
as the performance should commence,
but he was late getting in, he come
though. Fcenum Tiabet in cornu I
recon the Pou's had been pumping
him full, blowing him up as it were
or the occasion. He finally made a
tilt for the Dr. thinking no doubt
he would get him mad and excited
and then get the drop on him. but it
did not work worth a cent, the Dr. i
received his thrust without winch
ing or dodging and for about 15
minutes he furnished amusement for
the crowd, even his own side laughed
at him. The Dr. told him he loved him
he was such a "genial, child" that he
was the first editor that had conde
sended to notice him in person or
through his paper. The Dr. asked
him to be seated and hear him, which
he did, and the Dr combed the young
man's hair for him, which is always
painful for a child. 1 felt sorry for
the youth. He's more to be pittied
than blamed, lie has got no better
sence tnan to be a cats paw for
Jim Pou, in fact the Herald is
"our paper." We run it that
is, "Jim and I," and what Jim
says is "me too" with Woodall.
W e learn that the young man ad
mitted thai; the Dr. was not the sort
of man he thought he was, he was a
better man than he thought he was.
1 he Dr. gave ua a good talk and I
am satisfied that much good was ac
complished by his coming. May he
live long and have health and
strength to battle for the cause of
reform. I should so further and
say that I hope the Lord may have
mercy on Pou and Woodall, but I do
not know that I can sav so and be
consistent, for I want them to stay
in the Democratic partv and 1 know
if they do they will certainly be lost
however 1 will say, may they see the
error of thwir way and quit their
meannes", a thing hard for them to
do no doubt, for it has become sec
ond natui e with them.

Mr. Editor, Dear Sir. Aurora
Alliance is on a boom and we stand
solid on the reform demands. The
Legislature tried to kill our organi
zation and if they could have accom
plished their purpose there would be
no Alliance to-day. That cowardly
body deserves the condemnation of
all good and honest men.
our paper is worth its weieht in
gold, it isledueating the masses of the
people. Mr. Editor we love you as
we did the lamented and beloved
Polk. His mantle has fallen on you.
Go on with your good and noble work
for men will bless you, and may God
reward you. You have done a trrand
thing in denouncing the fraudulent
election laws that now exist. It seems
strange that men professing to be
christians will stoop as low as some
did in the late election. And I am
sorry to say that men who claim to
be ministers of the Gospel, helped or
did not at least denounce and con
demn the frauds and the corruption

I can't get them in ihe notion to do

Hundreds of them would be glad to

Editor Caucasian. By request
want to say that in my rambles

Friday the 12th inst I wandered into
the town of Holly Springs, the once
famous hot bed of Democracy, and
there found no less than 400 or 500
people anxiously w a ting the appear

personage by gome, and the most
loved by others who had been looked
for a speech on this day. It soon
became known tiat "Maryann

more disappointed people was never
seen, you could see it depleted on
every countenance. : But when it
was announced that Dr. Cyru
Thompson was on the ground and
would fill the appointment the crowd
become somewhat satisfied and in a
measure accepted the situation
gracefully. At lit o elock the speak

once in a while made the crowd
brighten up and come elowr. After
