KAKsOM'k STlt' K )H TJtAOK,
A correspondent of the Charlotte
Observer takes the pains to deny that
Kansom has buttou holed Republi
cans in behalf of Elias' and Simmons'
confirmation. The "creature," who
ever he may be, only writes himself
up, or uown, an egregious ass.
There is hardly ten-year-old school
boy in the State, who reads the news
papers, who doc not know that Ran
som's stock in trade for the last 2U
years in the Senate has been Repub
lican influence. Who can point to a
single achievement of his that was
not won by Republican alliance?
hvery appropriation ecurd for
North Carolina rivers and harbors
has been obtained through Republi
can help The familiar story that
every one has tead in this State of
"Ransom's great influence j the Sen
ate," has no other foundation than
Republican co-operation No Dem
ocrat in public life owes more to the
Kepublican party and to Republican
Senators than tht inscrutable, "(lod-bless-you"
Ransom. Who does not
recall how the gifted, able and elo
quent Merrimon was ridiculed by
the Kansoii crowd! "Oh," they ex
claimed, "Merrimoj; does the wind
work but Ransom has the iiitjuence.
lie is smarter than Merrimon; he
knows how and when to adjust the
muzzle to his mouth."
Merriniou's speeches will live with
the best efforts made in the United
States Senate. Yet he was the butt
of Ransom's jeers. "Merrimon will
talk himself o death," was the Ran
som chorus, throughout Merriniou's
distinguished service in the Senate.
In the meanwhile, the artful Ran-j
som was manipulating Republican
votes and forming Republican alli
ances, this is common history, aud
it is amazing that "a reputable news
paper" like the Charlotte Observer,
should publish such stuff .and subject
its patron saint Ransom to public
criticism.
Ransom attempted repetition of
this game with Vance, but Vance
went to the Senate with opened eyes.
He was not oblivious to Ransom's
tactics. He has won the highest dis
tinction in the Senate. He is recog
nized as a leader and outside a little
Ransom coterie he is known as "the
Senator from North Carolina." When
Adlai says "the Senator from North
Carolina is recognized," all eyes
turn to Vance. One would as soon
expect to see the ghost of (Jeo. E,
Badger or Mangum as to see Ransom
respond to the Vice-President's par
liamentary salutation.
Ransom is not a bit sensitive to the
criticism which the Observer's super
serviceable correspondent resents.
It is not the criticism that he objects
to, but the disappointment is what
hurts At every move along the hi
therto familiar lines Ransom has en
countered a- snaer. He has persist
ently sought Republican influence to
secure the confirmation of Elias and
Simmons, and to bis inexpressible
consternation he has failed to secure
it. He will not deny this statement.
Both nominations ought to he reject
ed. Elias is unworthy if the charges
against him are sustained. Simmons'
confirmation would amount simply to
the endorsement of a crime.
It is estimated that the loss of
lives by the severe storm on the
gulf of Mexico last week, was over
twelve hundred people. It was
caused by a tremendous tiJal-wave
which ran inland along the coast of
the gulf States. The los3 of proper
ty by the tide and also by the wind
and storm was also heavy. This
storm seems to have been more se
vere for the area that it covered,
than the severe storm which swept
the Atlantic coast the last few days
of August.
Yesterday (Wednesday) was set by
the administration as the day to com
mence night sessions of the Senate
to force an early vote on a bill to kill
or repeal silver. But if the friends
of the people in the Senate stand
firm, they can prevent a vote, and
thereby defeat the scheme of the
gold-bugs.
Yellow fever is still raging at
Brunswick, Ga., and has spread to

The good jieople of the surrounding

the strict attention of the people for
nearly two hours more. It would be

in full, and then the reader would
loo.e the peculiarly impressive style
of dellveiy. He discussed the finan

triotic stand poiut, and the force of
his remark! showed that he was
speaking from honest convictions
reached by a close and careful study
of the present situation. His speech
throughout was very conservative,
and no one can charge him with be

The effort was the best of the kiud

LATEST FROM WASHINGTON.
nr information from Washington
i that no action was taken by the
Finance committee on Tuesday in
the Klias case, at the urgent request
of Senator Ransom. Kvery postpone
ment of the matter has been at Ran
som's instance, and it Is evident that
he is fighting for delay, hoping to
carry the nia'ter over to the regular
session in December. It can be stat
ed, without betraying any confidence,
that the Finance committee is pract
ically unanimous against confirma
tion The Uouiie passed the bill repeal
ing the Federal election bill by a
vote of 200 to lHO. the Populists vot
with the Democrats for repeal.
JUDGE CONNOR,
regret to see it announced
W
that this Honor Judge Connor will
soon resign. There is not a better
Judge or a purer man on the bench
than Judge Connor. He is a man
who is influenced solely by a sense
of duty and justice. He will not
wink at ballot bos stuffing to help
any party; he cannot be influenced
directly or indirectly to lean to any
corporation or set of men. Before
him the law is administered for every
citizen alike, irrespective of his
means or station. The State needs
the service of Judge Connor on the
bench, and we trust that the report
that he will resign is untrue.
After the above was in type we see
that Judge Cornier has resigned and
Jacob S. Battle has been appointed
in his stead. The Caucasian will
have something to sav about this
strange appointment next week.

The Richmond Dispatch says:
"Evervbody will deplore the trans

allegiance from the Democratic
party to the Populist party. He is
"8 good man and true," and honestly
believe that he has sufficient reasons
for refusing to support O'Ferrall,
Kent, and JScott, and for giving his
vote to the Populist nominees for
State offices."

Whenever one of the partisau pa

two county olhcers. Some one in
the crowd p rot used to take the ote
of the crowd on far and unlimited
coinage uf silver, and the vote was
unanimous in favor of it: then the
vote was taken as to the politics of

seems that that is the condition of

wish we had room to publish the
same, but want of space forbids. We
make the following extract which
shows that not only the men of thi?
laud are thinking but the ladies also:
"The laboring class luu seen th
great need and importance of show-
ing their true manhood, and have
manifested that fact by organizing
themselves in a grand body demand-
ing "erjual rights to all and siecial
fur..ii I , n.s.. " - Al 1-1
lo uouc. x iiey saw ine no-
erty that their forefathers fought,
bleed and died for, was no more, and
unless they organize they would lose
all chance of recainimr their l.it
liberty. They see and know that, t he
liberty of speech has been almost
denied them and even the liberty of
a free ballot has been cast awav, and
the country instead of being a Ih
public has been made a inonaichv
with gold as its king. Cold reigns
instead of the people, and this is a
government of money a-id corpora
tions and for money and corpora
tions, hverv sancititv of human
hoje and life is consecrated to mon
ey, and while this is not a golden
age, still it Is the age of gold. The
gods of silver and gold are set up by
many hearthstones and the people
made to sacrifice at their altars "

On the 1st Monday of this month
the physicians and other prominent
public men of Chatham county held
an election of Supt. of Health, Poor- j
house doctor or something else, at
any rate he draws $200 salary. The
roll was called and it was found that
all told, there were only 17 entitled
to vote. There were two candidates.
ur. u A. Hawks, Democrat, and
Ir. II. T. Chapiu, Populist The
first ballot resulted in Hawks (Hem.)
receiving 12 and Chapin (Pop.) re
ceiving 7. The fraud, mistake, or
whatever you propose to call it, was
detected, and the chairman ordered
a new ballot, which resulted in
Hawks (Dem.) 10 and Chapiu (.Pop.)
7, showing plainly that the stuffing
was done by some parties w ho voted
for Hawks. Now what we want
to know is, did all the Democrats
know of the illegal votes, cr were
there some one among them who
were willing to disgrace the whole
board rather than miss the opportu
nity of practicing for the next elec
tion. Xow the argument against
any intended fraud is that the
Democrats did not need the two ex
tra votes, a3 they had 10, 3 majority.
Now the fact is that they could not
safely count on two of the Demo
crats, as they were expected to vote
for Chapin (Populist) before they
went to Pitteboro, but on reaching
Pittsboro they changed their mind
no changed their votes. Now who
voted, those high-miuded profession
al gentlemen 'i Echo answers, the
ring. Oh where has your indepeud-
ence gone ,
