Our proposition to send The Cau
casian till Jan. 1st, 1895, for fifty
cents is good for nw tvhtcribers onhj.
If all of our subscribers were to get
the uaner this long for 50 rents we
would lose money. Wc make this
liUral offer to induce those who
have never taken the paper to do eo
now, also to induce our friends to
get up clubs and pay the money
themfcelves to get the paper into the
hands of more people. Every old
subscriber must renew at the regular
price. We feel aure that you will all
pee the justice in this and the necte
Bity for it. There is no money in
nV.u -.: ni vl t.a.rer like The Cau-
oasian fui ;1.00 a year. Ut every

"lU j-eal the Slit -rn.an law ami
fctop out How of gold to Europe,"
was the cry last summer; "isciie
bonds and atop the outflow of gold"
was the cry eix months later, "anoth
er iBHue of bonds to stop the outflow
of gold" is the cry that you now hear
again.
Which teachcH, that gold is this
country's greatest curne or else our
government is in the hands of
thieves.
WHAT THE SENATE COSTS YOU.
We find the following in the ed
ditorial column of the Wilmington
Star of May 30th:
"The Chicago Inter-Ocean figures
out that it coBta "about $4,000 a day
to pay the ealarics of the do-nothing
Senators." This must be Chicago
figuring. Eighty-eight Senators at
$1G a day will not figure out $4,000
by a jugful. But as they are paid
bythe year Uncle Sam goes along
and foots the bill whether they do
nothing or something."
There now, the Star has slipped
up again. If the editor of that pa
per had read The Caucasian for
the last three weeks he would have
seen that each Senator costs the peo
ple iJG times as mwch as his salary.
When Congress voted to hire a clerk
at $100.00 a month for each mem
ber at your expense, the Star did not
publish the fact, and probably did
not known it till the editor read it in
The Caucasian.
It's the instinct of Belt preserva
tion that nerves a rat to desert a
sinking ship, It's a sense of self-respect
and common decency that
nerves the New York Sun, New York
Herald, New York Times, the Bal
timore Sun, the Louisville Courier
Journal, the Chicago Ilt-rald, St.
Louis Republic and Kansas Cit
Times, New York World, Harpers
Weekly, the Mugwump New York
Tost and Springfield (Mass.) Repub
lican to oppose and denounce the
Cleveland administration. The
hope(not bouyant and strongjis enter
tained that sooner or later, the
Raleigh Observer will asstrt its man
hood. WHO IS " SOUND IN THE FAITH OF THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY."
The following is taken from the
editorial columns of the Richmond
Dispatch of last Saturday, one of the
leading organs in the South of the
gold bug party :
"We take it that everybody recog
nizes Mr. Cleveland as the head of
the Democratic party. If he is. not
its head it has no head. So the
members of the United States Senate
who govern their action by the rules
laid down by him must be recognized
as sound in the faith of the Demo
cratic party, and learners at the feet
of our Gamaliel, the President of
the United States."
Yes, Mr. Cleveland is the bead of
one wing of the gold party. He has
his head under the plutocratic hat
with John Sherman. This reminds
us of the ostrich that hides its head
leaving the remainder of its anatomy
exposed to view. And the view which
the people have of the bird is not
very inviting. Yet the law is laid
down that the Cleveland and Sher
man cuckoos are the only ones who
are "sound in the faith of the Dem
ocratic party." So be it.
"They begged me not to throw
away my vote on Weaver. Yes I at
last voted for Cleveland and now I
wish I had thrown my vote away"

Capt. W. II. Kitchin
Will speak at StatesviUe, June 8th, Con
r cord June 9th. Capt. Kitchin and Col. Skin
Utt will both speak.
A certain citizen of this State who
is very intelligent, very successful m
business, quite prominent in politic,
who has aspired to hold high posi
tions of trust and honor, ev-u a
high as the U. S. Suatc, vent U
Greensboro at th Commer.ce'neri
exercises ot the State Normal an
Industrial School and heard Co?,
gressman Bryan' speech on nvny
Congreeaxai. Bryan eaid tha' he wa
in favor of the free coinage of boti
silver and gold at the r.tt of Hi t
1. He denounced the j ropshi;ii t.
leave the whole question to an Inter- (
national monetery conference as u
gold bug scheme. He fuither said
that laws placed upoa the statute
books by the money power had coot
the country more than all the war,
famine?, floods and storms for 100
years.
The aforesaid North Carolinian
after hearing Bryau's speech said
that up to then he had been opposed
to the fne and unlimited coinage of
silver at the ratio of lo" to I. He
said that he had feared that it would
be diftrons for this country to take
oucii a fctt-p uiileerithe other leading
countries of the world could agret
on an international standard. We
believe that this man is thoroughly
honeot, yet the above shows how some
of our very beat and most prominent
citizens are misinformed and
prejudiced by the machine newspa
pers. Here w us this man honest at
heart, yet ready to work and vote
aainot his own interests and the in
terests of his people. This man had
gotten his ideas from the daily pa
pers. This teaches that the most
powerful agent to-day of the monop
olies and all enemies of the people
and good government is the syndi
cate that serves out press dispatches
and the cuckoo daily press w hich
simply echo the poisonous doctrines
of the capitalistic anarchists.
The Chairman of the People's
Party Ex. Com. of one of the coun
ties of this State has written us a
letter under date of May 24th saying
that several times he has heard the
report "that there was jealousy be
tween the leaders of the People's
party, and that Butler, Skinner and
Thompson were already at dagger's
points." There is not a word of
truth in the above report We don't
know that the above named parties
should be styled leaders of the Peo
ple's party any more than dozens of
other men who have devoted their
time and efforts to build up the re
form movement. But of one thing
we are certain and that is, the three
gentlemen named are on the best and
most confidential terms, both per
sonally and politically, and any one
of them are ready to do anything
that will advance the cause of re
form, even to the extent of giving up
any personal ambition that any of
them may have.
Is it not a little strange that some
of the newspapers that had reporters
at Greensboro, have not pubhsihed
Congressman Bryan's speech ? They
not only have not published the
speech but some of them are growl
ing because the speech was delivered.
This leads us to believe that it as an
honest argument in favor of bime
tallism with no demoguery or lan
guage of doubtful meaning in it.
Somebody indorsing the course of
the (Fayetteville) Observer from the
Clinton meeting until now "congrat
ulates that paier" on the fight which
has been won and the greater victory
of the future." We don't under
stand it. Can't bear any reference
to the Simmons' business ? Hardly,
for the Observer to have had no of
ficial notice of Simmons confirma
tion. WTe are in receipt of the advance
sheets of a new illustrated reform
weekly, Vox Populi, published at St.
Louis, Mo. It will make a specialty
of well executed cartoons ill us crating
the reform principles.
In 1894 it would take forty Phila
delphia law vers to draw a distinction
between McKinleyism and Cleve
landism. Produce that letter, Mr. Glenn,
or come out like a man and acknow l
edge that you deceived the people.
Capt Kitchin in his card has
much to say against Northern Dem
ocrats. The South should recollect
that Northern Democrats have stood
by us when we needed friends; and
although we may deplore any dif
ferences on financial questions; yet
those differences should not lead us
to forget that they stand with us on
nearly every othtr subject, not
should- we be indifferent to their
friendship and past services to us
and their general patriotic course in
regard to public affairs. News-Observer-Chronicle
May 18 th.
The Caucasian readers can see from
the tone of the above,what is to be the
course of such Democratic papers in
the South.
They will all soon begin to chime
in and urge the honest yeomanry of
this country to stand by the North
ern Democrats, for keeping off the
Force Bill, for their love for, "and
loyalty" (?) to the Dsmocracy of the
South. The position of the N-O-Chronicle
is clearly shown in the
above; it is with Plutocracy, yet pre
tends to be loyal to the masses.

SILVKR CERTIFICATES CANNOT
TAXED.
RE
Mr. Editor.-On the 27th day of
July, liSDL I addressed a letter to the
State Treasurer, D. W. Bain, in
which I stated the fact that in list
ing ruy taxes, on the 10th day of
June last, I refused to list for taxes
two ten-dollar silver certificates that
were in my possession on the first of
June, as being exempt, from taxa
tion, aud that the Commissioners of
this county had the matter before
them. I cited section 3701. 5413 of
the Revised Statutes of the United
States, and asked for his decision,
which he gives in the following
letter:
Raleigh, N. C. July 31, 1S91.
A. L. Swinson, Esq., Goldsboro,
N. C:
Dear Sir: Yours of the 27th inst,
received. Section 3701 of the" Re
vised Statutes of the United States
says:
"All stocks, bonds, treasury notes
and other obligations of the United
States shall b exempt from taxation
by or under State or municipal or
local authority."
The Act of CoDgress approved
February 18th, 1875, defines the
foregoing section as follows.
"The words iobligation or other
security of the United States' shall
be held to mean all bonds, certifica
tes of indebtedness national bank
currency, coupons, United States
notes, fractional notes, certificates of
deposit, bills, checks or drafts for
money drawn by or upon authorized
officers of the United States, stamps
anp other representatives of value,
of whatever denomination, which
have or may be issued under any act
of Congress."
I answer your inquiry as fol
lows: If notes are in the personal posses
sion of the holder or owner on the
first day of June and not on deposit
to his credit in bank, they are not tax
able. If, however, they are on deposit
in bank to the credit of the holder or
owner, they are taxed as solvent cre
dit. Our Supreme Court has so de
cieded. Very Respectfully,
D. V. Bain, State Tresurer.
The language of the above letter
is plain and cannot be misunder
stood. It is evident that there is 'no
paper currency that is liable for tax
es when in possession of the owner
on the first day of June in circula
tion in the United States, unless it
be either State bank issue, private
bank or foreign paper currency,
neither has there been for over twen
ty years. Still our people are yearly
gulled into paying tax on what un
taxable money they are fortunate
enough to have, through ignorance
of the law.
Publish this for the special benefit
of we poor "hayseed" dibblers and
fot ward it along the line. Educate
the masses and with it will come
"equal right to all and special pri
veleges to none."

SEND REPORTS OF MEETINGS AT ONCE
On Saturday, May 12th, the coun
ty convention of Lenoir met at Kin
ston and Col. Harry Skinner was
present and delivered an eloquent
address. But no one sent The Cau
casian" a single line about the meet
ing or the speech. We had ritten
a prominent citizen of the county to
send us a short report of the meet
ing not later thau Monday, out we
did not hear a word for last week's
paper. At every such meetings in
the future let it be some one's .special
business to send The Caucasian at
once (don't wait a week) a report of
the meeting. We want news items
every week from every quarter of the
State. Don't wait to write a long
article. We want short articles.

TWO VlliIVS OX THE ALABAMA STKA-
I)ALE.
"The Democrats of Alabama are
straddlers of no mean order when
they can cover with the same appro
val the chasm between the P-esident
of the United States aud the senior
Senator from Alabama." Louisville
Courier-Journal.
The Caucasian endorses this
view.
"The idea in Alabama is evidently
to throw the doors of the pirtv
church so wide open that there will
be no excuse for any man to go as
tray. The Democratic party is a
catholic institution anyhow. Who
ever undertakes to hold it down it
dowu to rigid lines and set rules mis
takes its composition, its principles
and its purposes." Greenville (S.
C.,) News.
The Charlotte Observer endorses
this view in its issue of May 29th.
In short the party has no political
convictions and can be made up of
men of opposing political views just
as well as of men of similer views
and principles. It is because it is
such a party, that it is now doing
worse than nothing in Congress.
'AMERICA'
A Magnificent, Marvellous Spectacular
Drama, Vividly Presenting the Lead
ing Events in the History uf America.
One of the grandest sights at (Jhi
cago during the World's Fair wa3 a
spectacular presentation of the chief
events connected with the discovery
of America and the leading points in
the subsequent history of the United
States given every night at Chicago's
Mammouth Auditorium. The drama
is now being reproduced in Washing
ton city on a smaller scale. To give
the readers of The Caucasiax some
idea of this brilliant spectacular
drama, which is beyond description,
we reproduce the following from the
Washington Post:
"It is really amazing to watch the
various changes of scenes, represent
ing the people of mediaeval times in
Uieir picturesque and quaint cos
tumes, changing almost in the twink
ling of an eye to some bright picture,
peopled by the children of fairyland.
Marches and processions, fetes aud
pageants, ballets and tableaux all
follow one another in such quick suc
cession that the spectator finds it.
difficult at times to keep pace with
the grand moving array of events, as
they pass before him on the mimic
stage.
"At one time we are away back in
the misty past, in the days of Isa
bella and Ferdinand, when Colum
bus first implored their majesties for
the needed vessels with which he ex
pected to discover the new world.
The scene changes, and the spectator
is on the Atlantic, with Columbus
and his mariners on board the Santa
Maria, the Nina, and the Pinta.
Then follows San Salvado and the
Indians. Once more we are back in
Spain, in the old city of Barcelona,
where the nobles and people tUroDg
the streets. Bells are ringing, trump
ets sounding, music playing, and all
the houses, as well as people, are
decked in holiday attire. Amid this
gay scene King Ferdinand and Queen
Isabella, followed by their retinue,
appear and take their place on the
temporary throne erected for them in
the public square to receive Colum
bus. Then follows a sjene as gorge
ous as any yet witnessed upon the
stage of any theater. It is one grand
moving picture of men and women
clad in the costumes of the time and
soldiers in their armor and mail.
This welcome of Columbus is a royal
fete. Fancy all this mediaeval splen
dor lighted up by the magic wand of
thousands of electric lights and you
have a faint idea of some of the feat
ures of "America." But, as usual,
the popular feature of the perform
ance is athletic and not allegorical.
This is supplied by the famous
Schaffer family of aorobats, whose
remarkable feats will not bear relat
ing; they must be seen to be be
lieved. The ballets of the merry
makers, of the arts and sciences, and
of American inventions are also very
fair, while the concluding procession
of the States and Territories, to the
accompaniment of patriotic airs, is
very stirring and was warmly applauded."
Warsaw, N, C, Maj l?th, '4.
Ms. Editoe: The time has come
when the farmers of our couitry are
thoroughly arongeU upon th? atate
of their condition, and I verily le
liere that they are upon the road
that leads to triumph over their op-pri-i-ors
who ha e dared to throttle
this COvtnstnent, deStrov
the price
m pnxiucto and grind down
tie weak and disabled with the
mighty hel of gold.
At first, the farmer's movement
nuicmeu uj me jHjiuicians to i
furnieh reading matter for a certain
class who take the dailies, and when
the intelligent farmer received hi
weekly he was greeted with a lot of
olitical rot thai was both disgust
ing and iustilting to a refined mind.
But just witness the change that has
tak n p'ace. A gd many j)liti
ciai.a have found out all of a sudden
that it is to their interest to be very
conservative and make amends to the
jeople for what they have said and
done in the past
It was said at one time that the
farmers could nev r do anything to
better their condition on account of
not being able to organize thorough
ly. As heat applied to iron of ail
ehnpes and sizes causes it to melt and
unite into one solid ni:ts-t, so has a
bitter experience driven them into
organization with permanent found
ations that will live as long as this
government exists. These organiza
tions make it their special work to
educate and enlighten their members
upon all matters bearing upon their
interests, and from this cause they
have been able to achieve the victo
ries in the past and upon it depends
their future success.
Now as to the party in power at
the present time it is evident to every
fair-miuded man that it is a dismal
failure in every respect that tends
toward the improvement of the work
ing classes, and as the voters will
stand no trifling, this party, whose
leaders repeatedly refuse to redeem
its pledges, will be asked to step
down aud out in ISIiO by a disap
pointed aud determined majority.
Their cry has always been "(Jive us
a show, give us a show." They got
the show, animals and all, and their
performances at Washington bid fair
to out-rival "Baruum's biggest show
on earth."
The argument has been made that
the People's party having cast ouly
one million or about one-twelfth of
all the votes cast should not be grant
ed its demahds because eleven
twelfths were against them. That
is just as reasonable as to say that
the Bible is an imaginery story from
beginning to end on account the
larger part of mankind knowing no
thing about it The trouble is Wall
street has controlled the election ma
chinery of the eleven-twelfths and
by means of all the tricks known to
the trade have compelled the repre
sentatives of the people to enact laws
for the special benefit of capitalists,
leaving out the interests of the work
ing man entirely. The last census
shows that the farmers own sixteen
billions or one-fourth of the entire
wealth of the nation, aud this togeth
er with the fact that they are in the
majority should entitle them to a
reasonable amount of control of pub
lic affairs.
I defy any man to prove that silver
was demonetized for any other pur
pose than for the benefit of the rich
bond holders. If this country pros
pered under a double standard from
its beginning until 1873, for what
other purpose was the gold standard
adopted if it wasn't for their inter
ests? Paper money issued by a govern
ment is a promise to pay on demand
without interest a certaiu amount
A gold bond is a promise to pay on
a certain date so much money draw
ing interest at a given percent Now
look at the difference. If you own
paper money or any other kind you
pay a tax on it. If you own gold
bonds you pay no tax, but remember
only a favored few can own bonds,
while every laboring man handles
paper money and silver money every
day, and by this means it circulates
among all the people and does the
greatest good. Now, all this being
true, why did not the present Con
gress issue $200,000,000 in paper
money instead of forcing the govern
ment to issue the same amount of
gold bonds? It is a self-evident
fact that one can be redeemed a3 well
as the other according to our view
because we have faith in this govern
ment to pay its obligations of every
kind.
Patiently, though, all through the
years the laboring men have borne
the burdens of class legislation, but
silently and surely as the sun rises
in the East there is a spirit of re
sentment that is showing itself in
more ways than one, gathering force
at every turn, and the day is soon
approaching when, not by means of
the sword, but by the power of the
ballot, the people will rise in their
might and wrest the reins of govern
ment from those whose only object
is to crush money out of the down
trodden masses. God speed the day !

COMMENCEMENT STATE UNIVERSITY.
Yesterday was Commencement day at the
State University. Up to the hour of poing
to press we had not learned anything about
the details of the occasion. Secretary of the
Interior, Hon. Hoke Smith, an aluiunua of
the Institution delivered the address.
WRONG-THE PARTY HAS CHANGED
ITS FAITH.
The Concord Times says :
"Ex-Congressman W. H. Kitchen,
one of the most prominent Demo
crats in the eastern part of the State,
has written a card to the Populist
organ at Goldsboro, which will ap
pear in its next issue, and in which
it is understood that he announces a
change of political faith.
Much surprise is express sd at his ac
tion, though it was well known that
he was not at all in accord with the
administration."
"Wrong! Read Capt. Kitchin's
card and you will see that he left the
Democratic party, because it had its
faith. He joins the People's party
because it represents the principles
of Thos. Jefferson and Andrew Jack
son.
