SENATOR ;RBY 5 SPEECH
Tiik Cai'camax loves the truth,
whatever may he it Mur e. It :ul
mirfH oiui'Hi- in tlii t-v.i of 'lunky
inm. It respects the candid, honest
man wherever f it n 1 am iti whatever
ranks, ami whatever may he his j
litieal faith. It dei-es t he i-oward,
the hypoerit, the time server. It
hate, profoundly, iiriicleiititi'.'ly, the
public mat! Vtho luck- tlie courage of
his convictions. We have no words
to adequately express our loathing
for the toady in politics. We have
only supreme contempt for political
jugglers ami "makeshifts." An hon
est, hrave, courageous, defiant,
irreHsivc man like the intrepid South
!aroJinian , whose speech is printed
in TiJK Caitasian this week, is a re
velation in public morals. No doubt
our commendation of this man and
our enthusiastic appreciation of the
spfcch will subject Senator Irby to
the criticism of a truckling, subsi
dized, bigoted, ignorant, vicious
iiourbon press. We have waited
eagerly, expectantly, and, at times,
hopelessly, for the inspiration of
Southern leadership in the Senate
debate. The hour and the man met
in John Irby, He conies from a race
of people that know no fear as hon
est, (Sod-fearing, liberty-loving, he
roic people as lives on (Jod's green
earth resolute, indomitable, invinci
ble. As lias well been said by a re
cent writer, "they are Southern
farmers, defendants of English,
Scotch, Irish and Huguenot immi
grants, resolute, teligious, moral,
persevering voters. These men sel
dom trifle. They are chary of jok
ing about what they deem serious
matters. They have never counted
the cost when they started to settle a
point. They beat Cornwallis and
Tarleton. They stuck to the Civil
War until their clothes were rags
and their leaders surrendered. Fur
ther back, before they became Amer
icans, they fought Cromwell if they
were Royalists, and Dundee if they
were Covenanters."
We shall hear from Irby a train.
BUTLER OF SOUTH CAROLINA
POPULIST."
NO
In a feeble way, after long wait
ing, Senator Butler tried to be hon
est aad consistent on the silver ques
tion. For a long, long time, like his
kinsman, Ransom, nobody knew
where he stood. At the lat moment,
and, evidently in anticipation of Sen
ator Irby's speech, he defined his position-
He was characterized as a
Populist by a Philadelphia paper,and
this brought the Charleston News
Courier, the Bourbon organ of South
Carolina, to his rescue, and in its
frenzied attempt to save its friend
effectually "dams with feint praise.'
The Courier says:
"Senator Butler's position is not
an enviable one, but we should give
him his due. How then does it hap
pen that Uen. Butler stands now in
opposition to the Administration, in
antagonism to the business interests
of the country, and in direct defiance
of the wishes of the people.
"The answer appears to us very
plain. There was a majority in the
Senate in favor of the Administration
without Senator Butler's vote. Be
fore the time came for him to decide,
the vote of the House in favor of re
peal had already stopped the finan
cial panic and put an end to the cri
sis. To have come out for repeal
would have cost him his seat, and
that sacrifice did not appear at all
necessary. Senator Butler is no Pop
ulist." No, the South Carolina Butler "is
no Populist." The Populists in this
country are reasonably honest, intel
ligent people. Butler can now pray
with Cleveland "Oh Lord! deliver me
from my friends!" The way of the
transgressor is hard. Honesty is the
best policy. The South Carolina
Butler is not eligible to the Populist
party until an "unconditional" re
nunciation of Democratic methods,
such as the Courier credits to him.
HOW ABOUT IT, MR. GLENN?
Last week we called upon Col. R.
B. Glenn to produce that letter
which he read or claimed to have
daring the last campaign in Yvhich
Mr. Cleveland pledged himself to
free coinage. The jeople were fool
l by that letter. It caused thous
ands to vote for Mr. Cleveland. It
is new the duty of Mr. Glenn to pro
duce that letter. Our Washington
correspondent this week says that
the President is indignant about the
matter. Now the question arises is
Mr. Cleveland mad because he wrote
the letter, or is he mad because Mr.
Glenn misrepresented him. In short
did Mr. Glenn ever get such a let
ter ? It is now time for Mr. Glenn
to speak.
We suppose the tariff is not rob
bing the people much now. We nev
er hear anything about it if.

W'aMI I NiiToX, Oct, 1 1. The stat
us of the silver question irf what!'
The 'unconditional rcpealera" the
Wall street crowd the administra
tion democrats at this writing,
head the funeral procession. Routed,
demoralized and vanquished by the
.-ilver men in argument and contro
versy they appealed to brute force.
And a sorry spectacle have they pre
sented. After a continuous session
of thirty-eiht hours the dead march
was sounded Mid retreat ordered.
IXOI.OKIOl'ri DKFKAT.
The administration has sustained
an ignominious defeat, through the
perfidy and treachery of its so-called
leaders. Yoorheea betrayed the dem
ocratic party at Chicago to secure
Cleveland's nomination, and he has
now betrayed Cleveland to save Yoor
hees in Indiana.
I'KUUDY AND TKKAl'HKKY.
So it is with Gorman and Ransom
and the steering committee. Ran
som opposed Cleveland's nomination
and packed the North Carolina dele
gation to the national convention for
Gorman. Cleveland was nominated
and, as everybody knows, by the votes
of republican States. Left to the
democratic States his nomination
was an impossibility. To defeat
Cleveland was a question of expedi
ency with Ransom. No one knew
better than he that public sentiment
in North Carolina was overwhelming
ly against Cleveland on the very ques
tion now before the Senate. He pre
dicted Cleveland's defeat. He said
at Chicago that his nomination
meant democratic defeat in North
Carolina. The prediction was not
even qualified by an "if." After the
nomination he said, "Boys, we must
elect him. I don't like him; he is
not our sort of a democrat, but we
must all do our duty. The men who
are responsible for his nomination
are good democrats and there is a
possibility that they will control
him." liecurrence is made to this
past nomination history, not to an
noy Mr. Ransom, for it is said that
he has become very sensitive to such
comment, but to show that he is in
the same boat with Voorhees.
WHAT HE HAS 1ST VIEW.
To control the North Carolina pa
tronage by posing as an uncondition
al repealer, and save Ransom by ef
fecting some compromise legislation
exactly describes his attitute, and ex
plains to everybody's satisfaction why
nobody knows where he stands. It
would be an awkward predicament
to anybody other than Raosom, but
the complacency he exhibits, under
the circumstances, suggests an hallu
cination, which is sometimes mistak
en for sagacity. Ransom knows
what the unconditional repeal of the
Sherman Law means to him and the
democratic party in Nrorth Carolina,
and the question is asked repeatedly
every day, "Why has he not the hon
esty and manhood to gay go' If
lacking the courage of leadership,
why not follow Vance? The ques
tion answers itself.
TO ALL APPEARANCES
Unconditional repeal is defeated.
From the domain of feasible legisla
tion it is simply assuming the form
of a party question. Satisfied that
the Sherman law cannot be repealed
the democratic policy is to keep up
the struggle until the silver men are
ultimately corralled into some cau
cus action, which will save the party
and put the republicans in a hole.
THE GAME DISCOVERED.
The republicans have beeu on the
alert, suspecting bad faith on the
part of their democratic allies. The
discovery was made a day or two ago
that Voorhees was forced to adjourn
the Senate, is due to this fact,
THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
Is to pass a . compromise bill of
some kind. Nobody here is willing
to risk his reputation by even sur
mising what it may be. If it suits
the administration, when formulat
ed, it will be made the subject of
caucus determination, and immediate
action will follow. If defeated by
the republicans the responsibility
will be th-irs. Democrats can "point
with pride" to the effort to redeem
their platform pledges. The result
will be no legislation. The Sherman
law will 6tand as it is.
THE WAVERING SILVER MEX.
The Western silver Senators show-
id fotne alarm to-day at th- drift of
th- tide. Thir apprehension ha
been arou at tb- report -d def-c-l
tion of -iu h riien hj Vance and Pugh,
1 w ho ar- 'piot'rd a favoring the cau

now i fruitful of et-nt.-:. If a cau
cus i-oriiprorntf' jro witiort is sub
; milted, it will I- done with the uti-d-rf
Landing of Ke utive approval.
' T he probability is that this ill not

' tion. The .silver ih-oiiI.- brr their
j-ril in the Dew condition that entire
ly changes the situation. It may
iiuteria'i.e in nothing more thai;
talk, but the chances favor some
early action on the lines suggested.
The puri! of the administration
leaders is to demonstrate to the
Southern anti-repealers the itnjsfei
bility of any compromise legislation,
whatever, believing that they will
ultimately accept "unconditional re-jm-uI"
as an alternative. "I'ncondi
tional rejteal" is jncsible only in this
way. Tin-re is a limit to "physical
endurance," a. id the handful of
Western silver Senators would be
forced to succumb. This may Ir
idic speculation and vague surmise,
but one thing is certain uow, it
may not be certain twenty-four hours
hence that the Western silver tro
pic wiil entertain no comp oume
proposition whatever which does not
fully recognize the coinage and pur
chase of silver.
Til E GLENN CANARD.
Mr. Cleveland's alleged letter to
Bob Glenn, written during the cam
paign in which he committed him
self to free silver, turns out, upon
investigation here, to be a mendaci
ous canard. If such a letter is in
existence it is a forgery, and it may
devolve upon Glenn to produce it in
order to sav his own head. The
Caucasian last week published the
fact and called for the letter. The
President is indignant that publici
ty should be given to such a state
ment, and it appeals that Glenn has
wantonly misrepresented the Presi
dent in this matter his official head
will go, and there will be little for
mality in the deep damnation of its
going. Affidavits will be submitted
to the President establishing the
truth of Glenn's campaign statement.
He said everywhere, and on every
occasion that Cleveland was in favor
of the free coinage of silver, and
made thousands of votes by the dec
laration that he had a letter from
Mr. Cleveland which put the matter
beyond all doubt. So the end is not
yet.
SENATOR IRBY'S ULTIMATUM.
There is no doubt about Senator
Irby's position. Jsothing short of
the free coinage of silver at 10 to 1
will be entertained as a compromise
for the Sherman law. He fought for
that at Chicago; he fought for that
principle in the late presidential
election, when he only had to say the
word to carry the electral vote of
South Carolina against Cleveland.
He maintains the position now with
out the shadow of a change, and
stands out conspicuously jn the Sen
ate as the one Southern Senator
whose position is thoroughly under
stood. Compromise on any line that
does not honestly maintain the plat
form declarations of the Democratic
party, is cowardice and treachery in
his estimation, and be doe not mince
his words in saying so. The people,
he frays, are tired of quibbling and
subterfuge, and so far as he is con
cerned, he says, he will never coun
tenance or sustain any party policy
which can be justly subjected jto that
criticism. These are net idle words,
intended to catch the popular ear, for
his speech n the Senate and his ac
tion mce whjch js more important !
emphasize them. Plain gpeaking,
courageous action and honest inten
tions &re rare virtues in public life,
but they pee.19 to eminently distin
guish the young South Carolina Sen-
j f 1 1 a a
aror. Mien a man must reel very J
lonely in thd democratic party under
its present leadership, pd his bold
and patriotic speech the o,th,er day in
which he delre.d his independence
of a leadership bsad !pon Republi
can alliance and which meant ruin
and want and misery to the Southern
farmer surprised nobody but the
thimble-riggers and juggler and
, , 6 .
aoagers. t- onsternation was pic
tured on their face as they gathered
around the impetuous Carolinian. It
needed no roll-call to get a quorum.
The cloak-rooms were quickly de
serted and nearly every seat in the
Senate chamber had an eager listen
er. It was the shortest speech of the
debate, but every sentence in it was
a declaration of fight. It produced
a dramatic effect, and is the rallying
cry of the anti-repealers in the splen
did and courageous struggle they are
making to save the money of the
people from the dispoilation and
greed of Wall street. What Emer
son said of Napoleon can be said of
IrbyTs speech, that every sentence he
spoke is worth reading because it is
the sense of the people in South Car
olina. The Southern farmer is the
back-ground of Irby's vivid enuncia
tion of Democratic principles. Unit
ed they are invincible. Division
means ruin an ) bankruptcy. Com
promise is a suure and a delusion."
VAXCE FALTERS.
Irby punctured the bubble. No
Southern man except Irby ha? had
the candor, honesty, intrepidity and
courage to deal with the question as
the situation demands. Vance made
the nearest approach to the line of
independent action, but manufactux

Congress may adjourn within a few
days, although all the talk is to the
contrary. In the event of adjourn
ment the Klias matter will go over

protracted. There i-s spice enough
about the expected developments to
relieve the investigation of any sus
picion of tediousness. Hut Hansom's
disclaimer of responsibility for the
appointment is refreshing. They say
now that the President made the ap.
pointmeHt upon the recommendation
of Simmons. Elias is quoted as say
ing before the appointment was
made: "Hansom and Vance be d d,
I will get the appointment anyway."
If true, the current statement here
of Hansom's disclaimer has the ap
pearance of truth. All the same,
Hansom is preparing to make "the
greatest effort of his life" in defense
of Elias before the Senate.

elude any Democrat from lending it
his support. A tariff law, sir, pre
pared by the hybrid political alli
ance, now marshalling its ranks for
the suppression by force of the voice
of the people in this Chamber, must
inevitably be regarded by the rank
and file of the Democracy of the
United States as a part of the con
spiracy against silver desired to be
consumated here. Such being the
case, when 1 assume the attitude
that 1 have indicated, I believe that
I speak for the people of my State.
OVERTHROW OF THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY.
As for them and myself, there
could never be a desertion of, any
withdrawal from the Democratic
party, so long as it pursues the poll-
cies 01 11s piatrorm. 1 ne democrats
of the United States, sir, prefer to
toiiow the platform of the Demo
cratic party than that contingent of
the Democratic Senators who have
plainly abandoned the platform on
this question, and who, sustained by
the Executive, are endeavoring to
commit a crime, which, in my judg
ment, couia never be expiated ex
cept by the utter overthrow of the
Democratic party at the next nation
al election.
HOPELESSLY H'RECKEp.
The people of my State want a re
vision of the tariff, but they are will
ing that these questions shall be rel
egated to the rear for a quarter of a
century rather than to see the finan
cial question solved in the manner
proposed by the Administration. I
know that I represent my people
when I tell you that, with tariff re
visiou and the demonetization of sil
ver, they would he still hopelessly
wrecked" tor what good would the
revision of the tariff do them if they
were so poor that they could not reap
the benefit of the low prices under
an alleged revised tariff.-' I know
that I renroseyf, them when I tell
you as a Democrat that I will pot be
coerced. I despise the patronage,!
which has been so ruthlessly with
held from 90 per cent of the honest
and genuine Democrats of my State.
IS THIS TREASON ?
If it is necessary to overpower us
with liepnbliean es ?n this Senate
I dare to tell you that you cannot
revise the tariff. You may cajl that
treason but J. answer, if that be trea-
Z f ufire
however, on this point to be distinct-
ly understood, &nd to make myself
perfectly plaiu to the njjndij of every
Senator present and tha country at
large in making this statement. I
do not wake it as a threat nor for
the purpose of coercing or introduc
ing any element of violent into this
discussion, I make it with reluct
ance and deep regret, and would
gladly avoid the responsibility of
taking this position but I believe it
a solemn duty to the producers of
this nation in every State and espe
cially to the nobh?, patriotic, and
liberty loving people or South Caro
lina to raise the band of warning and
place those who seem intoxicated
with power, upon, positive notice that
if they ruthlessly and by the aid of
Republican vote over-ride our wish
es in this, the most important of nil
the questions of public policy, I for
one will not follow their lead another
step.
THUS FAR AXD XO FARTHER,
I do not wish for a moment to be
understood as wavering in my allegi
ance to the importance of tariff re
form, but this measure I deem of the
greatest importance and I firmly be
lieve that it has the unqualified en
dorsement of a majority of the peo
ple, but this measure, when present
ed in this body, if it ever is present
ed for a vote, will be decided by a
strict party vote, and I am unwilling
to follow a fraction of the Demo-

ver men who ask for or will accept
any compromise short of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at a.
ratio of HI to 1, or the complete re
habilitation of silver as a money
metal.
WHAT TIIK SlI.VEK CESTlON MEANS.
This iuestiou is broader aud deep
er than the mere, dollars and cents
involved in the solutiou of the silver
'juestion or any solution of the
money question. It goes to the very
1 A A. C 1 . tm
00110m or ids iounuauons ol tnis
system of the (government and calls
for a decision upon the possibility of
tne perpetuation of Democratic m-
stutions. A free government, such
as this, can only exist while it com
mands the patriotism, love, and
fealty on its subjects; and it can on
ly reach a higher development and
a more glorious achievement by be
stowing its greatest rewards and
honors upon merit, integrity, hon
esty, virtue, frugality, aud industry,
thereby encouraging those virtues
and stimulating the youth of the
laud to strive for them.
A SAO ASH HUMILIATING SL'ECTECLE.
On the other hand, when political
success is known to be the result of
low cunning or the suppression of
principle, and the highest gifts and
honors of the nation are bestowed as
a reward for a pliant conscience,
the premium is placed upon corrup
tion, and it would be a thousand
times better to sweep away all sem
blance to popular government at
once and resort to a monarchy. Des
potism crushes, while corruption de
bases. Of all things, corrupt prac
tices and methods, which depend
upon the corrupt use of power for
success, are most to be dreaded in
this form of government. It is bet
ter, Sir, for the present ills to con
tinue, until we can agree upon a
just and equitable solution of them,
than to submit to the youth of this
nation the sad and humiliating spec
tacle of a Democratic minority com
bining with the Republicans under
the whip and spur of the Executive
in order to legislate in opposition to
the wishes and financial interests of
the great masses of the people.
AT THE FORKS OF THE ROAD.
Again I bid you of the opposition
halt! Ilalt before it is forever too
late. We have now come to the
forks of the road, and I, for one,
will perish before I prove recreant
to the high trust reposed in me by
the true Democracy of South Caro
lina. Apply the torture you propose
if you will, and but the proud
spirit of American liberty wil no
more heed such tactics than the
chaste moon heeds the baying of a
mangy cur. This proud, this grand,
this truly Amercan spirit of pure
Democracy, will pass on to higher
and grander achievement based on
absolute truth, equity, and justice,
From the very moment you yote
to prepetrate this proposed act,
whch I believe to be a crime against
the productive interests of the na
tion', neither my people nor I will
longer follow your lead.
Again, and in conclusion, J beg of
you as you Jove your country and
its glorious history, halt! As you love
the Democratic party and its pure
principals, halt.! And as you love
the pnnceles boon of pjvil liberty,
and would transmit it as an un
stained heritage to prosperity, halt!
I have given you fair warning, and
if the Democracy be now divided the
entire responsibility must rest upon
you. Applause in the galleries.

were: "Thy kintfdom come
and Thy will te done on earth"
mark it "on earth!" not in another
world after death. Christ had no
ue - we of to-day ha ve no use for
any kingdom, any church, and re-1
i- - . t .
liglou, that busies itself about the)
interests of another world, aud ig
nores or negleets the people's inter
ests in this world. This is why the
great earnest heart of the common
1 .. . 1 .1
peopie are crying 10-uay as ill Hie
time of Christ, fur a new departure
a church of the new era; a church
which is not a mere fire insurance
company issuing policies-to mill
ionaires and stock gamblers to pro
vide against brimstone contingencies
in another world. But a church
which follows Christ and makes it
hard, not easy, "for a rich man to
get into the kirgdom of heaven," by
proxy and a charity bequest of a few-
thousand dollars out of the millions
he has wrung from the starving
poor; a church which busies not it
self with long prayers "standing in
the synagogue to be seeu of men,'
those few men rich enougn to own a
pew and dress their children tine
enough for the occasion; a church
which concerns not itself with priest
ly mummeries and mystical niyteries
and traditional superstitions about
the fabled hells and purgatories of a
future world, while the hells of pov
erty, starvation, struggle, compe
tition, crime, vice, infamy, robery
and oppression of the poor, right
here in this present world, go unre
buked by the pulpit and unmitigated
by the pen- To be plain, true Christ
ianitythe kingdom of heaven will
find no place for existence till the
kingdom of hell is overthrown; over
thrown, not by "the mystery of god
liness," but by the plain dealings of
manliness; overthrown, not by tne
mumbling of creeds and the worship
of relics, religious or political, but
by an intelligent use of the ballot in
the hands of an enlightened citizen
ship. Our present robber system of
life must be reformed, and monop
oly must be downed, or there is no
hope for the world. The toilers of
the land must no longer be content
ed to work like the horse or the ox,
for their oats and their stall, while
the products of their labor go to e
rich their qwners.
Before the kingdom of Qod comes,
church members will have to vote as
well as pray for its coming. They
must vote for a governmen which
proposes to itself higher and nobler
functions than mearely to collect
taxes, license deviltry and superin
tend machine politics; they must vote
for a government that feels itself
charged with the duty of seeing that
the citizen is protected from Tegal-

(Jod in the const it ut ion Supreme 1
liulerof our glorious christian repub- i
lie head 1kss of the eorjorations, '
the national banking system and the j
great independent order of tramps, i
My solemn opiniou is that od does '
not waut the position. And for one,
I have too mui-h respect and refer- j
ance for the Almighty, as a iod of
purity aud upright ncs.s, to favor His
1 nomiuation for the ofhee until after
cleaning up in lS!Mt.
No, this republic of ours is far from
the kindom of heavt u, and unlcsi a
change takes place speedily the out
look is perilous. Talk about the
dangerous classes! Who are theyf
The strikers! The anarchists? I tell
j'ou nay. The dangerous calsses in
this republic to-day are the rich
manufacturers, the railway kings,
coal barons oil monoplies; they are
the wheat and pork manipulators
aud land syndicates; they are the
men and the corporations whose
money power exploits the wage sla
ves in gaugs at the polls, and wields
our legislatures and cougress and
presidential campaigns in the inter
est of plutocracy; it is this damnable
aristocracy of overgrown wealth,
wrung from the sweat and blood of
the toilers, amusing itself half mil
lion dollar fancy stables, aud twenty
thousand nollar fancy kennels, and
twelve thousand dollars for diamond
ornamentation and maintenance of
a pug dog while the land is filled
with staiving men, women and chil
dren; blasphemy against humanity
and humanity's Ood. These are the
dangerous classes in this republic,
and they are threatening the over
throw of our free institutions a thou
sand times more perlously than all
the anarchists that ever dreamed of
dynamite or headed a mob.
And, now, as the mighty hosts of
industrial refoimers march on to the
overthrow of plutocracy and eman
cipation of the great common people
from its despotic rule, let them siug
the new era version of the "Star
Bangled Banner.
Oh, sav have you seen in the day.
light's full glare,
The blot which has risen to tranish
our glory!
Yes, the blot of oppresniou tu the
millions who toil,
The greed of the Shylock the same,
same old glory.
House ve people, to-day, no Jougcr
delay,
Too long we have loitered make
haste now we pray,
Or the star bangled banner no longer
shall wave
O'er the land of the free, but the
home of the slave.
