VOL. XII. KI)ITORS CHAIR. QP H QH OF THE EDITOR ON THE SSUES OF THE DAY. WHY? Nine-tenths of the partisan demo-criii'- theets of the State have been criticizing aud condemning Senator .nice These same pajers have not incized Senator llansom, not evui the other tenth of them have, not ,-v.-n one democratic paper that we l,,rc seen. Now why id this? Is Ymice the enemy of the people and i,, Kansom their friend? Is liansom fcr ood government and is Vance .li- bad government? Is llansom tri'c to the promises made to the peo dining the campaign and is ahce false to those pledges ? Iet ui e. Vance voted for free coinage, K;utiui voted against free coinage. mice ttands by the people, against ii'!;'MlLes ; iiansom is a tool of monopolies, and will serve them v, hile he betrays the people. Vance elands for an honest government of (he people, llansom stands for all that in vicious and destructive in .ivfinment. He helps the monop olies lighten their grip on the throat tiie people every chance that he jftr. He is for contracting the cur rency and bringing the country to a eiii.S standard, which will make cot tun and tobacco still lower, and tirjLi-d harder. Then again we ask, why is this that Vance is to receive abuse and Kansom not a word ? It is because the controlling forces in lh- Democratic party of the State as ivtll as in the Nation are against the pe.iple? They are of the Bame stripe as J.'ansoni. In thejr eyes llansom has committed no crime, but is a goo.'i fellow. Then what is Vance's ttinie iu their eyes? Do they abuse him because he voted for silver aud etands by the people? No. They Jo down in their hearts, but not publicly for that would expose their hand. Instead of abusing him for these things they often speak well of him. to try to fool the people who agree with Vance. Then what are they abusing him about ? Because he saw tit as an honest man to con demn the action of the machine in I Humiliating an unworthy man like 1 y ior;uiter of public morals like Sim mons for important offices. His po sition, as we understand it, is, there are good men in the party. Let the President nominate such men and he Vill then vote to confirm them. 5ow is this any treason to the peo ple ? Is it any treason to the party ? Will this action of Vance cause the peoples taxes to be higher? No. Will it cause money to be scarcer ? No. Will it cause cotton to be low er and debts harder to pay ? No. Then what is his crime ? It is that He dared to get in the way of the machine. That he is keeping two jvrty' lienphmen from sucking the public tit and getting pay for their crooked political work. Offices aud spoils are what the machine feeds on, It could not Jive without the fle:h pots. These men whp abuse Vance for his course jn this matter re not concerned about the interests of the people, They think only of tht poiU of office. They want to lp the machine together. Can the people follow such men and such a party ? Are your interests safe in their hands? They are more danger 's than anarchists. llamson is heir darling pet.

They caused the panic of last summer and threatened to produce another if congress did not obey their orders and at once rejeal the Sherman silver law. Who are these bankers, anyway ? What do they produce ? what do t hey distribute? what moral right have they to cumber the earth ? They are money handlers. The government which is the people makes and issues the monev for the use of 'he people in imtkin" exchanges. The bankers are a few men who have perfected a scheme of getting between the people's govern ment and the people, getting hold of the money and refusing to give it up until a bounty in the form of inter est is paid them. Interest is some thing that the laborer produces and dues not receive; in other words, in terest represents unpaid labor. Hank ers, then, are men who live in palaces, drive tine horses, own steam yachts, and drink champagne, on that part of the laborer's product forwhicn he a not paid ! These men, highly respectable be cause they are rich, are the great blood suckers of our nation's wealth. They absorb the wealth madt by la bor and leave the laborer poor. These men forced Cleveland to take back what he said about the tariff, and forced him to say in his message to congress that Sherman law (which added $54,000,000 silver dollars to our circulation every year) was "the only menace to our coun try's prosperity." The financial writers said a few weeks ago, "The bankers threaten to make another panio." This is a prac tical admission that they have made one. The fact that they have the power to make a panic, to throw hundreds of thousands, yes, millions of people out of employment, to ob lige those who are poor to endure hunger and cold, to make it neces sary for hundreds of thousands to spend their little savings, to ruin hundreds of business houses, and bring on such a fever of crime as this country has experienced in the past six months, is sufficient reason why we should learn to look upon them as the foes of civilization, the oppo nents of progress, something to be condemned and voted out of exist ence Every man who carefully watches the signs of the times knows that we have what the papers call "a strin gency in the money market" a pan ic of more or less violence every two or three years. These are bankers' names. A bankers' panic is deliberately planned and scientifically executed. Bankers have the power to produce one at any time. They do make one as often as it can be made to pay them well ; and sometimes their greed overcomes their discretion and they come near "killing the hen that lays the golden egg." The bankers know that in one way at least dljars are like potatoes. When the crop is large and potatoes plenty the price is Jow ; and when they are scarce the price is high. So it is with dollars; when they are plenty their price is low not low in cents, but low in purchasing power. When dollars are cheap prices i t in l are men : wnen uouars are uear prices are low. There is now so little money in cir culation that the banks are able to control it. The banks own large amounts of stocks, bonds and mort gages. W heu times are good, w hen labor is employed, and trade active, the National Bankers' Association decides to have a panic. First they sell their stocks, bonds and mort gages for the high price such proper ty always brings when times are good. Then they turn the checks, drafts, etc., into money. They lock the money up out of circulation, and wait for prices to go down. Tfie removal ef Q niuph ftf the cir culating medium from a place where it is available never fails to cause prices to go down. Falling prices discourage business men. They nev er care to buy or manufacture goods while prices re on the detdiue but prefer to wait till they have reached bed rock. Working f orpee ae every where reduced, and in many cases wages are cut down. At the same time the price of cotton, tobacco and everything we make to sell also goes down. The bankers encourage fall ing prices by refusing to make new loan's, to renew old. esj cal1" ing in demand loana. All this tends to cause an extra demand tor money, and prices go down till the bankers fear that the people may "drop to their little game," aud they avoid it by charging the blame to something that does not deserve ;t, buying many stocks, bonds and mortgages, at the low price, and then wait for the money to circulate and raise prices. By w-lling when prices are high and buying when prices are low, (foi they force the people, to sell when prices are low) the few are enabled to grow immensely rich while the great common people are kept oor The last census verities this state ment by showing that one man in every two thousand is richer than the other nineteen hundred aud ninety nine, that less than one-third of one million men own one-half of all the wealth in the Fnited States. It was the bankers who werefiirht ing the Sherman law. They light every financial law by which monev gets into circulation without passing inrougn tneir hands. Our recent panic has been made more severe than usual by the efforts of the bankers to fool the people into repealing the one law that provides for real gov ernment money. For the same rea son the bankers are opposed to green backs or money through the sub tieaaiiry. And they will never agree to State banks unless they are under their control. Mark this! Because the great common people have neglected their political duties, because they have voted as their fathers did instead of interesting themselves in the great questions of the relation of man to property, i property to government, and govern ment to mankind, because men whose only motive is personal gain have taken advantage of people's neglect and gained control of the great tool of exchange money, we are having hard times. This is not the only cause of hard times. For the other causes, read the Alliance Demands. Hard times will never disappear till the causes of hard times are removed. Congress is the only body that can remove these causes. The Democra tic party now has charge of congress. Instead of removing the causes pro duced by Bepublican legislation, the Democratic party has turned traitor to the people, and is adding more causes to produce more hard times. The Democrats commenced, where the Krpublicans stopped. They are in copartnership with the bankers aud monopolists, aud are helping to rob and oppress the people. The Populist party is pledged to remove these very causes and give the people who will work a chance to prosper. The Populist party is the Nation's Star of hope and patriots every where are rallying to its standard. Of course every banker and monopolist is fighting the Populist party. Then can the party win ? Yes. For there are fifty people who are suffering from the bad legislation of the He- publican and Democratic parties where one is being benefitted. Then let the people who are suffering from hard times simply stand together and elect a Populist President and a Populist congress and the victory is won. Then the Democracy of Jef ferson and Jackson will again con trol our government and we win en joy the liberty and justice for which our ancestors fought. On with the fight ! We must stand together. TRYING TO FOOL THE PEOPLE AGAIN. During the last campaign we told the people that the Chicago platform was a cowardly make-shift, and was written to deceive the people. This was indignantly denied by the Demo cratic speaker's and politicians, but now every Democratic- paper iu the State (except one) is making the same charge. But the people must watch these papers, they are not making this confession because they have undergone any change of heart, they are doing it to try to hold the confidence of the people so they can fool them again. They know that the people are in open re volt against the goldbug policy of the adminstratjon, and that they themselves are iosiirg their hold up on the people. The Democratic politicians and editors haye caucused over the situation and decided that in as much as the next campaign will not be a natdona.1 one, that probably they can hold the people to the machine by claiming that Cleveland has fooled them also. They want to hold the next legisla ture, and are willing to denounce Cleveland in ortler to gain that point. They think if they can keep the col lar of the machine on the people two years longer, that wh,en the next national campaign comes around that they can whip up the people to support the next nominee of the Democratic party, even if another goldbug in disguise is nonijna.ted on another platform qf double meaning. Watch the State machine, it fooled you last year a.nd is n,ow abusing Cleveland to try to keep the people from crushing the machine in right eous indignation i The same motive that prompted the machine to mis represent the facts last fall, prompts it now to denounce the administra tion so as to hold your confidence. They then magnified Cleveland with the hope of staying in power and holding offices, they are now de nouncing Cleveland with the same hope of staying in power and hold ing offices. Watch them! Eternal vigilence is the price of liberty! GOLDSBOKO, X. C, THUKSDAY, XOVKMHKK SENATOR TELLEK S GREAT m. ONE OF THE SHORTEST. YET CE OF THE STRONGEST.

After the Senate had voted down ! the amendment of Senator 1 Viler to revive the silver law that was on the statute books before the demonetizing "crime of J KT-'i" and the amendment of Senator Perkins was about to le voted on Senator Teller said: Mr. Presiilent,the proposed amend ment of the Senator from California is a proposition for free coinage of the American product with a seigni orage of per ct nt. For myself, I have never favored the coinage of the American product. I have never believed that thut is good policy, or j will be sound monetary law if it should ever be enacted into law. I have never put my advocacy in this Chamber of the free coinage of silver upon the ground that it would bene fit especially the producer of silver. While, of course, I have not been in sensible to the fact that it would ben- SENATOIJIIENUy M, TELLER, elit the State which I in part repre sent on this lloor.I have never felt that I could ask the friends of silver to do what my judgment was against, and that is to limit the coinage to the American product. I have not believed, and do not be lieve now, that the coinage of the world's product of silver ihat would come to our mints would in any man ner threaten the finances of this country, I do not intend to enter into any general discussion of that question. We have disposed of that question to-day, at least so far as this session is concerned. I am afraid Mr. President, we have disposed of it for a much longer time than that. At all events, that has now ceased to be a live question before this Senate. The Senate, by a majority quite marked, has decided not to accept that amendment. While I do not . favor this amendment in the first in stance, yet it is so much better than the proposed law, aud the condition of the American people would be much better with this amendment incorporated into the law, that I shall cast niy vote for it The amount of silver that would be received at the mints under this law could not be very great; certain ly not more than we have been pur chasing and storing away in the Treasury during the last three years I will admit that there aie serious objections to it, I will admit that it does not come up to the highest principle of monetary science- but, after alb it will furnish to the Amer ican people some additional curren cy; it will keep silver in the currency of this country; it will say to the world, if it shall be adopted, thatthe United States at least intends to util ize its own product, and we shall not present the wonuertul spectacle to the world of a nation producing more 1 ., , ii i- i il ui-i.too tw.uuL oi policies silver than any other nation degrad- Liu-plv t,eeause thev did not meet mv ing, debasing, and destroying the value of our own product. If somebody shall hereafter point his finger at me and say that I have had a selfish motive to induce ine to vote for it because the people of Col orado are the producers of silver, I shall answer that en a fornicj occa sion, when there was no threat of this kind held before the American people,that is, the passage of a hill for the comnlee and e-ntlre demone tization of silver, I voted against a bill proposing to coin the American product I should vote against it now if there were the slightest hope, if there were the slightest expecta tion, that we could Sttfure something ; better. But, Mr. President, I know the point to which we have come. I know that with the passage of this act, which it seems to be declared here on this floor and elsewhere is to pass in a short time, you will have complet ed, ratified, indorsed, and approved the act of 1873. For myself I do not care hereafter to hear any man condemn that act who votes for the unconditional repeal of the Sherman act, and who votes against every pro position that comes before the Senate to recognize silver in the currency of this country in the future, Mr. President, I do not care to take ili- tun.- .,f - s..ljau. to di-. n- thi j 'jUestiun. but I do f. .-l U.and u- ..Jtv !a word or two uith n-f.-reno- . th"- local interest that I r- 1r,...,.!lt !:i ,. , j Mate ,,f CoU-a,!,,; ;Ul, J ) ;;, ,,. j : might a well av th. m at .-..me ,.tii--r ; tlllle in the Culir.-v- of this debate.

Mr. President, we are t 1- great ly burt by the legislation that strike-; silver out of the monetary .-vstein of the Tinted States. But if I U-li.-ved : 1 1... t t ,.. . e . . . i irieuuou ui i ne Mjernian law in our stututes would be injuri ous to the great body of the people of the Fnited States, I would not stand on this lloor and advocate its retention. If I did ot believe that all the people of the Fluted States were to sutler with us, I would not have protested for days and weeks. as I have here, against th e passage of this bill. For invself. I Udi.-v.. fli:. there are many sections of the coun try that will suffer worse, because of this legislation, than will the State of ( 'olorado. At the lirst we shall be the great sufferers. Y'ou cannot destroy the industries of a State producing twenty-live or more million dollars of the precious metals without bringing great disaster and distress upon the people. Put the people of Colorado are not the people to surrender to ad versity or to adverse conditions. Mr. President, I shall vote for this amendment, because if it should pass it would be sonic relief to us. It would be greater relief to the people of the United States. I do not intend to weary the Sen ate, but I cannot allow this occasion to pass without saying that to me it ;s the most terrible moment of my legislative life. To me, Mr. Presi dent, it brings more anxiety, more fear, than any moment since I enter ed public life. What do I fear, Mr. President? I fear that we are entering upon a fi nancial system from which there is absolutely no escape. I know that some Senators on the other ide of the Chamber will tell me that when this.bill is out of the way they will introduce other bills looking to the rehabilitation of silver. Mr. Presi dent, I have no hone in that direc tion. I know, as 1 know that I stand Her?, there will be no favorable leg islation for silver until the American people are Heard from at the ballot box and heard from in a way that will compel attention to their de sires. Mr. President, when i speak of what the people may do, J do not underrate the great agencies with which the people have to contend. I know that it U the combined capi tal of the world. I know that it is the money-lenders of Europe as well as the money-lenders and money changers of this country, i know- that they have the power to control 'the great agencies of thought. I & UqViiv io wj, LlltJII 11 l . t I know that thev can and will control " me great, press oi tne rountry. -.Say, more, Mr. President; they have the ability with their wealth to control more than the great press; they will control public and privuts thought aud public and jirivate influence all over this land. Mr. President, the stake is too great to be lightly given up. It is not for a day; it is not for a year; it is for the great future they are contending. The men who own the money of the world, the bonds, the interest -bearing securities, know that if they can put this country up on a gold standard and keep it there five years, they have put the world ii . . r . i npon that standard; and then we will return to the condition of tilings ' that existed prior to te discoveries o? gold in California; prices w ill go as they have been going, gradually lower and lower; individual oppor tunities will be lens and less. Mr, President, all men ought to have equal opportunities. They Vill not have it under a system that makes I one-half of the men slave-: ofihef'1 other half. With tV,egia.sp that these men have Uj.on ihe industries and the enterprises of the country, there is but little hope. Mr. President. I am not a pessi- j mist. I never have been. I am an "I'niuini. i nave neve: eei-u ui.sasier approval. 1 have h it.u i in i n in tue American people, and I have had faith iu men. I am full of hone and eouratre iu all thing concerning niyfne should feel very grateful towards country. I can see the silver lining his mentor and protector .l,arns, and in every cloud. There never is a ui.o, i i i storm so' dark that lean not see the h h&a illmid to show his coming light on the mountain top. 1, gratitude iii a substantial way. All i5ut i can not contemplate the com- ing condition ot ttia people without grave apprehension, nay, more,with out absolute terror. It strike to my very soul. Mr, president, 1 want to warn the American people that if they do not now resist they will speedily enter upon a system, of industrial slavery which will be the worst known to the t human race. THE ROBBER TARIFF. On November 1st, the Democratic party had been in power thirty-four weeks. During that time (accord ing to ante-election statements) the "culminating atrocity" has robbed us of just $450,760,220. This must be charged up to them as they are in complete control and could, ere this, have wiped out every vestige of the "McKinley monstrosity." We pro pose to keep tab on this weekly, adding $13,461,538. Just watch how it grows and show the result to your democratic neighbor. Dakota Kuralist (tf.) IC 18!):!.

The Senator is re garded as an exceedingly lucky man having been lirst elected to the Sen ate in ls?oslnd j.s n,)W st-rving his fourth consecutive term in that hon orable body, a circuni.-tancc that has no precedent in the hist ry of North Carolina politics where .-hort periods of consecutive service have generally prevailed. It has not been without sore misgiving that he has entered into the last two lights for re-election, but with an eMraoidinary amount of personal beseeching at the last and very astute, manipulation at the prev ious election he has succeed ed in accomplishing what at various times seemed to be impossible. The Senator is an astute politician and is so regarded and whatever amount uf hostility he may have in curred during the middle part of his term, it has been his fortune to snioothe over and make disapprar at the critical re-eleatiou moment. In deed, it has breu said that so artful ly has he contrived his canvass on such occasions that he would bi ing the hostiles over to his side amidst mutual weeping and regrets that there ever should have been any e&- trangement any thought of aninios- itv towards the Senator I repeat, tlutt the Senator is wiley, very wiley, and even if be were dis pleased at such a charge he certainly would not deny it. And yet 1 affirm that he will have occasion to use all of the powers with which he has been endowed if ho. should hope to succeed himself next year. Even if the Democratic party should cirry the State next year, (which now is very doubtful'), he will meet with CI a s i l,owtTfl-1 "Pinion in his own party.

Earl v in the last campaign, this, ex-Cov-ernor .larv is, was shrewd enough to see the advantage to be gained by so ingratiating himself with the Demo cratic candidate for (Joverncr (Carr; as to be able to use ov control him in the future battle for the Senatorship, !im wtu this end in view, he caused himself to be billed with the candi date for Governor iu his canvass of the State He acted as a sort of wet nurse for the said candidate -accompanying him wherever he wmt. It is weU iaiGwn that Mr. Carr is , , , , qker -was a compromise candidate and U with - al a weak vessel, though obstinate; and it was u mercy to' him that he had 'conductor Jurvis to eteer him clear of opposing speakers His own State- committee refused to allow him to meet the opposing candidates in joint debate. It is therefore the most natural thing in the world that honor to him for it, The first gun, (though it was care fully muzzled), in the series of skirmishes that is likel; to lead up to the battle royal was fired bv the last legislature which displaced the Board of Directors of the State Pen itentiary with an entirely new Board which if not actually inimical to the Senator are certainly not wedded to his interests, and some of whom are known to harbor bitter ill-will to vvords him. But the first overt action as it is generally understood by the knowing ones was taken by Governor Carr and his counsel in turning down Col. Paul Faison who had been Superin tendent of the penitentiary for the past four years and appointing a Mr. Leazer in his place. It is generally believed to have been engineered by "conductor" Jarvis.

I'uless the manhood of the people f North Carolina has changed they will never again bow their m-ckito the machine of Kansum, Simmons and .larvis. The peci.le are not only shocked at the dishonest methods by which the party got iu power but they ure thor oughly disgusted with the cowardly and partisan attion of tin lat legis lature, and are iu utter .li.-pair at the recent traitorous action (,f con gress. Iu addition to this the polit ical record of liansom and .larvis will add nothing to the un.-a-.oi v re cord of the now corrupted ami dis honest party. The men who have toiled and sweated under a score of summer's suns, suffering and oppress ed by bad and vicious legislation, le ing cheered only with the hoje that they would get justice when the Democratic party should control the affairs of tin- nation, are iu no hum or to be trilled with again. When they are asked again next year to rally and "save the grand old party," which is to give a few politicians fat oflices, while they still sutler, they will throw olf the yoke of the poli tician and vote for their interests, they w ill vote for the only party that is not owned and controlled by cor porations. They will put the Popu lists party in power forever and have not only a change of oflice holders, but a change of conditions. One of the People.

To-day one of Yooi heen hench men was appointed Internal Pevenue Collector after astubliorii opMtmitioii on the part of congressman Prook sbite. Ilrookhhire was an original Cleveland man at Chicugo and was working for Cleveland's nomination when Yoorhees whs trying his liest to defeat Cleveland and giving out interviews that his nomination would ! a great jiolitical mistake to the Demociatic party. I More the extra session began the President appoint ed Voorhcei brother-in-law ami oth er relatives and henchmen to office, but under attacks made in the Sen ate on Yoorhees by his Democratic associates, alleging that he had been bought by jiatronage, the busineKu of appointing his followers to office was temporarily sbjpjicd. As soon as the silver bill was parsed Yoorhees legaii to insist on the apiouitiiieiit of .Jump as collect or, and to day the President made the ap.ointiiient. So far Yoorhee has got everything to Im- had in In diana, ami it is believed that bin agreement with the Administration, whereby he turned coat on the silver riucstion. will hold rood for II KAN Si M IN TIIK SAME IIOAT. That Itiwisom will uet about tr same treatment from the Adminis tration that Voorhcei) has m-eiviil in already evidenced in the Preident'ii reckless re-ajipointiiM nt of Kliart and Simmons in North Carolina. Up to the hour lUusoin voted for the un conditional riieal of tin Sherman law, he was on record asa fn-e silver man. Without a word of explana tion, wit hunt excuse, he reverwd his jwiidtion, defied an overwhelming public sentiment in North Curolim and voUd to destroy silver. 1 It stands conspicuously alone as th only "man in the United ftUtc Sen ate who cast a silent vote in the face of a public remonstrance. What the consideration was that influenced him is left wholly to inference. It lies between patronage and patriot ism, but the inference up to date in strongly against the latter. THE IH LIT .11 HlKsilll'. The iinpreseion has been made' that the vacancy on the Federal leiich caused by Judge liorid'a death has lifn tendered to Pansom on a solid silver 10 to 1 ratio platter.

They go to the plum-hunters and don't fall into every watery mouth that closes ouly at some premonition of lock-jaw symptons. At one time .Judge Bond was u thoroughly ey.fcrated man in North Carolina. He is remembered now and odiously, in connection with the Ku-Klux trials in the State, and eepecially in reference to Pandolpb Shotwell'a trial and suljseOjUent im prisonment in the Albany jieniten tiaiy. But later on he was recog nized as an able and brilliant jurist. The sci amble for his place has been indecent. He was scarcely dead be fore it, began. Before the funeral obsequies were oyer the clamor was at full pace. It has grown to colossal proportions, not less than fifty names being urged for the appointment. Evidently the President thinks that something is due to decency and on that account has delayed the ap pointment.
