There ia more Catarrab, in this
section of the country than all other
diseases put together, and nntil the
last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven
catarrab. to be a constitutional dis
ease, and therefore rrquires consti
tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney

stitutional cure on the market. It
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts di

The following address recently is
sued by the peoples Party Senators
and Representatives in Congress states
the present political situation and the
line upon which the next battle aiust
be fought ifttbe people hope to win in
the light against the gold syndicate
and trust. We commend its careful
reading to every voter of the State and
nation. The address is as follows :
The conspiracy of gold anp monopo
ly is nearing its culmination. Every
advance it has made during the last
twenty-five years has been by adroit
and stealthy processes. These would
have been impossible if it had not bad
its agents and confederates holding
positions of public trust in the legis
lative, executive and judicial branches
of the government. Neither the ben
eficiaries nor the tools of this conspir
acy have any particular politics. In
name the last administration was
Democratic. The present administra
tion is called Republican, but it has
ingloriously practiced and defended
tb? perfidious policies of its predeces
sors. At length the selfish and brutal in
terests behind this conspiracy deem
themselves strong enougta to dispense
with the cautiou and duplicity hith
erto necessary to their success. The
administration boldly avows its en
dorsement of their scheme against the
liberty and prosperity of the people.
Within a few weeks it has formulated
and sent to Congress a bill the leading
purpose of which is, in the words of
the Secretary of the Treasury : "to
commit the country more thoroughly
to the gold standard."
This country bas already, during
the past twenty-four yearn, suffered
enough ofthe blighting effect of the
gold standard, so far as fraudulent
legislation and executive usurpation
have been able to establish it. It is
now boldly proposed to legalize what
has been done in defiance of law and
to use the power secured by false pre
tenses from a long suffering and too
trustful people to put upon this infa
mous design the stamp of alleged pop
ular authorisation.
In pursuit of this purpose of com
mitting the country more thoroughly
to the gold standard, the plan of this
administration, as of the last , is to re
tire the greenbacKS and other non-in
terest bearing paper money of the
government, to issue interest-burden
ed gold bonds, and to increase the
powers, privileges, and profits of na
tional banks. This achievement would
tuan over the duty of supplying the
people's money, the very life-blood of
business, to a selfish, heartless, and ir
responsible foreign gold syndicate and
its allies have, with the connivance if
not the assistance of our government
captured and to-day control every
in strument of commerce in the
nation. In framing the Constitu
tion our patriotic forefathers, with
zealous care and with prophetic wis
dom, provided that commerce should
be regulated by the Congress; but this
tremendous power has been abdicated
by Congress in favor of the gold trust
and the banking ring. Money is the
first great instrument of commerce,
but the gold ring, not satisfied with
controlling our financial system, has
captured the other instruments of
commerce, to enable it to keep the
gold standard yoke upon our necks,
and "to more thoroughly" subjugate
our people and dominate our govern
ment. All history teaches that those who
have controlled the instruments of
commerce in any country have not
only controlled the commerce of that
nation, but nave also controlled and
dominated that government. Thus
the gold syndicate, and its allied mo
nopolies in our counrry, bavingseized
the great instruments of commerce,
have used this tremendous power to
discriminate against sections and in
dividuals to destroy competition, to
breed business stagnation, and to
create "bard time," in the midst of
plenty. Thus the organization and
maintenance of great industrial trusts
have been promoted which operate to
aggravate the evil condition which
gave them birth. Thus they are mak
ing millions of paupers to create a few
millionaires. The inevitable result
must be to convert our government in
to an oligarchy of sordid wealth.
In the accomplishment of this end
these evil influences must shackle
opinion and muzzle discussion. They
not only subsidize the press and at
tempt to seat their well-paid attorneys
in our legislative halls, but wherever

nopolies combine. They select the
conventions they desire to control:
they elect the candidates that they
have selected. Of course they control
them after they are elected. There
fore, those who are not their agents
and who would not submit to their tyr
ranous spoliation should Btrenouslr
oppose the allied combination of gold
and monopoly.
1 ne only hope of the enemy is to di
vide us. Therefore let us be more uni
ted and harmonious than ever, and
further let us organize without delay
a vigorous campaign in every State
and Congressional district, county and
and precinct.
lhere are but two sides to this
mighty and portentous contlict. All
of those of whatever party who favor
the conspiracy of gold and monopoly,
who favor industrial slavery, wide
spread poverty, and national destruc
tion, should be on one side; aud all of
those of whatever party who oppose
this deadly design, who love truth and
right, who love their country, who
love their homes and firesides, and who
believe in the sacred principles de
clared by Jefferson and reasserted by
Jackson and Lincoln, should be on the
other side. We stand solidly on that
side. Then let us, maintains: at all
limes party integrity, invite the har
monious co-operatiou of all seeking
the same end. The omnious dangers
threatening the institutions of the Re
public make this the highest duty. The
line of battle is clearly drawn. We
cannot avoid the conflict if we would.
Therefore let us appeal to all citizens
and to all organizations and parties
that oppose this conspiracy that op
pose a government of the trusts, by
the trusts, and for the trustB, that op
pose and will not submit to the despo
tism of sordidwealth to come to the
rescue. Patriotism and manhood are
not dead. A large part of the Ameri
can people realize the wrongs and
comprehend the dangers, and are
ready and anxious to fight this -system
to the bitter death. The spirit of '715
is abroad in the land and the sons of
liberty everywhere are awaiting the
patriotic call to fight a common battle
against a common foe. Let this be
done and we can crush every traitor as
did the men of the American Revolu
tion; let this be done and we shall
drive every tory to ignominious de
feat. Let this be done and we shall re
establish what is almost overthrown :
A government of the people, by the
people, and for the people.

ioa Democrats :
Washington, D. C. Feb. 11. lays.
Editor Caucasian, Kaleigb, X. C:
sir: x our Kind notice of a recent
speech I had tbe honor of delivering
before tbe Democratic Association of
this city, prompts me to give express
ion to a few thoughts on the pending
issues before the American people, and
urge tbe earnest and hearty co-operation
of all tbe reform forces of the
country for tbe triumph of Jeflerso-
man principles in 1900. Tbe views ex
pressed in the speech you commented
on were openly and firmly advocated
all through my district in 18, where
tne reopie's party gave me cordial sup
port. In my own State these people
are only protesting Democrats. They
early saw what many Democrats feared
and some others openly-declared, that
the money power was using tbe organ
izations of the Democratic as well as
Republican parties to fasten the sin
gle gold standard upon this country,
as they bad upon European countries.
The People's party were the pioneers
in tbe fight against the conspiracy of
the gold trust and its allied trusts and
monopolies. Tbe good effects of their
fight have extended beyond the limits
of the party.
Fortunately for the country and tbe
Democratic party, the platform of 1896
reaffirmed tbe principles of Jefferson,
and embodied many of the views ofthe
reform elements represented by tbe
silver Republicans and the People's
party. Tbe coalition thus formed de
serves, and came near winning success.
That it will do so in 1900, we may
saieiy predict providea tnere are mu
tual concessions and sacrifices. Tbe
objects to be attained are worthy of
sacrifice, and tbe good to follow the
triumph of our principles is incentive
enough to lire the breasts and nerve
the hearts of every patriot in the land.
While we Democrats do not ask you
to disband your organization and come
over to tbe party from which most of
you felt constrained to separate, we feel
that tbe objects notn parties nave in
view can only be obtained by uniting
tbe forces of eacb and presenting a
solid front to the compart and well or
ganized forces of tbe party that stand
for the single gold stsndard and the
worst banking system tbe world bas
ever known. Recent discussions in
Congress, as well as the declarations
of the Chief Magistrate and t he Secre
tary of tbe Treasury, have defined
very clearly tbe position ot tbe Repub
lican party, and tbe issues for this fall.
as well as for 1900, are made up. And
now we learn that the "Iloosier State"
is about to organize for tbe fail cam
paign, and that General Harrison is to
lead the combined hosts of gold Demo
crats and Republicins. This "off year"
is not m fact an "off year' it is tbe
skirmish line of battle for 1900. It is a
manouvre for position. It is a proper
and judicious alignment of all tbe
forces. Failure to secure gcol posi
tion, and lack of hearty co-operation
of .the allied forces, has lost many a
battle. It is to sound a note of warn
ing to my good friends of North
Carolina that I venture these
hasty suggestions. Tbe control of
the next House will be certain
to have an important bearing on tbe
next Presidential election. II tne
"sound-moaey" men (so called) carry a
majority of tbe next Congress, it win
depress our side and strengthen the
hopes of tne opposition, we are con
fidently counting on a full delegation
of silver men from the old State of
North Carolina. We believe that Dem
ocrats and Populists will reconcile
their differences, and if need be, con
quer their prejudice?, in order to ob
tain an end so devoutly to be wished.
No one doubts aa to tbe position JNortn
Carolina will bold in tbe Electoral
College in 1930, but we are not so sure
as to her representation in tbe 56 tb
Congress. Hitherto discordant politi
cal elements seem to nave coaiescea in
your State. We hope to see a closer
union of tbe silver lorces oi an parties,
and note with gratification this ten
dency in many States. Ex-Congress

j vh iae request oi nv iur-e jier
oloui members of the National Com
mittee to call a metiog of the whole
Committee from all tbo widely scat
tered States in the Uoin to listen to
their vaporirgs. Yon did submit
their rn,aet by the referendum
plan) to tne wboI C mmtttee' as onr
rules require, as I for oce recollect
that I emphatically voted "no" to
the proposition, and yon certainly
would not hav been jisti&edin call
iog the committee together, contrary
to all usage without due reason
therefore in view of the great incon
venience and expense it wonld hare
cansed without first refering the
matter to the Committeo itself in tbe
manner that you did, and oar rules
of organization, and procedcre.
Tbe instructions of "How to Organ
ize" by tbe fame J. C. Ilanley. as
"Secretary Natiosal Organ'zition
Committee' for Minnesota, and
which be says was adopted by tbe
St. Louis Convention of maleoatents
on Jan. 12 h is rich reading, and I
wonld be glad to see you jab your
pen into that also. By it, as I read,
all Populists are to be branded and
ear-marked as we say -in the west,
anl without a "pass -card" (great
Jupiter,) from Bolters are to be black
listed and are cot to be admitted to
Populist gatherings, pastures or
ronnd ups, and to get that "card''
they must take and subscribe to tbe
following obligation:
The obligation is too verbose to
quote in a hurry, but in substance it
is that the obligated sacker promises
to oppose everything and everybody
except that which suits the Organi
ztion Committee bosses, which he
vows to sustain. In return he is to
receive the appointment from them
of "Populist Judge of Election" and
the position of Bolter-in-Chief in his
precinct, if truly faithful to the boss
es over him, and helping to oust the
non-submitting members of the coun
ty, State and National Committees
steal the Organization and name of
the People's party, and enable a pit
iful minority to rule the majority
with a despotic hand, but I for one,
that will certainly not "go'' with.
Very sincerely and
respectfully yours,

Conspiracy to Tax Knowledfe.
New York World.
Tbe principal paper manufact
urers of the country have formed
themselves into a trus, with $55,
000,000 capital.
Their purpose is to monopolize
the business, raise the price of pa
per $8 a ton and levy upon the news
paper and book readers of the land
a tax ef not less than $1,000,000 a
year.
There are seventeen mills in the
trust, and they propose to drive all
tbe oi her mills out of fxistence, so
that they may charge what price they
please for the paper on which news
papers are printed.
This is a conspiracy to tax knowl
edge, to levy tribute upon education,
to blackmail intelligence itself.
Unfortunately the tariff du'is aid
the conspiracy. They not only pre
vent Canadian and other foreign
competition in the sale cf paper, but
they exclude Canadian wood-pu'p.
Tbe free admission of wood
pulp and paper wonld go far tocrnsb
the conspiracy.
