Address THE CAUCASIAN COMPANY, Raleigh, X. C THOMPSON-A YCOCK DKHATK. To-day there is going on a joint de bate at Hood's Swamp, in Wayne coun ty, between Hon. Cyrus Thompson and Hon. C. B. Aycock. The monopoly pa pers charged that Aycock got the bet ter of Thompson in the recent joint discussion between them at Concord. His easy to charge this when the speeches on each side are not reported fairly. Th Caucasian does not be lieve that Aycock got the belter of Thompson. In fact, we know that Dr. Thompson is a match for any speaker the Democratic party or any other par ty can put up against him in thid State. Besides, Dr. Thompson has the right side of the Usue for discussion in his favor.Therefcra with his One ability as a campaigner, it is impossible for any one who is supporting a party that baa betrayed Bryan and sold out to the Clevelandltes and the railroads to de fend the record of his party in the face of Dr. Thompson on the stump. In order that the people of the State may know the exact facta about these joint discussions and decide for themselves Th Caucasian will next week pub liih a full and accurate report of both speeches. The Caucasian will let the people read both sides and decide for themselves. Ibis the Democratic pa pert dare not do. The next issue of Tub Caucasian will tell the truth and the whole truth, and therefore it will be the best campaign document ever issued, and should be read by every voter in the State from the mountains to the sea. Let every true silver man and anti-monopolist go to work to put the next issue of Thb Caucasian into the hands of the thousands of people who have not been reading it.

T8KIK INSINCERITY PROVES. In Wilmington and New Hanover county is one of the places where the Democrats have been claiming that tbey were under negro domination. They have howled themselves hoarse against negro domination and lament ed their deplorable condition with great crocodile tears; tbey have de clared that to overthrow "nigger rule'' waa more Important than free silver or any other great economical reform. The Peoples Party of New Hanover coanty tboeght probably tbey had re pented since the Democratic State Convention when they turned down Bryan's' advice for co-operation. So the Peoples party county committee made the Democratic coanty conven tion a written proposition for co-operation. A eoeasaittee from the Populist Party withCapt.8. W. Noblea as chairman, appeared in the Democratic conven tion and chairman Noblee read the following communication: The Peoples Party Represented by its Central Committee : To the Democratic party in Conven tion: QimiMU-We have the honor to ay that the Peopleo Party of New Hanover, composed of all the white farmers with some few exceptions and hundreds of white mechanics and laborers, respectfully submit the fol lowing for your sincere and unprejo diced consideration. 1.

Taylor, I.. It. Ma on. K. :. Walton, S. W. Noble. Charles I.. Front, W. J. Orr, A.J. Bryan, Thomas T. Bell, H. Itoneham Central Com. Peoples Party. How did the Democratic Convention receive tbis offer. of co-operation that would have made "white supremacy" certain? Tbey refused it. They said tbey would not co-operate if they had to divide any of the offices. The Dem ocrats in their if ply said : Whereas, it is against the avowed policy of the Democratic party in this campaign to enter into any fusion ar rangement with any party; therefore, Itesolved, That tbis convention re spectfully decline any co-operation with the Populist Party of New Hano ver county, that involves any division of offices. At the same time we cordi ally invite every white man, whatever his former political affiliations to unite with us in a supreme effort to over throw Republicanism and negroism In North Carolina." If this does not show the insincerity of those negro calamity howlers noth ing will. If they were frightened at ' negro domination" why did tbey refuse the help of the Peoples Party to get white supremacy ? In short, they say by their answer that "we hate the Popu lists worse than we bate the negro." They say that "we prefer to see ne groes bold all the offices rather than co-operate with the Populist Party. " Tbey say Mwe want all the offices or we will let the negros have all of them." The fact is they want to destroy the Peoples Party. That Is their chief and only purpose. Will any true Populist help them do it? They are goldbugs and moropolists, and they are crying "nigger" in the interests of the trusts and monopolists and to'try to destroy the Peoples Party. Send $1.50 for one hundred copies of next issue of The Caucasian contain ing the report of the great joint de bate between Thompson and Ayoock. It will be the best campaign document that you can get. A copy of this joint debate should be in the hands of eveiy voter in your township and county Every honest, fairminded man can then read brtli sides and judge for himself. GKKKNSRORO FOR MUNICIPAL OWN ERSHIP. The Board of Aldermen of the town of Greensboro are considering the ad visability of having the city govern ment to take charge of the street car system and to put up a complete light ing and electric power system in the city. They are convinced that the principle of municipal ownership of natural monopolies is correct. They realize that it not only means a better service to any town or city at less money, but that it also prevents a mo nopoly from growing up in a commun ity to dominate the town and to cor rupt its politics if not its newspapers, schools, and churches. At a call meeting of the Industrial and Immigration Association of that city yesterday these matters were fully discussed and the following res olution or petition was adopted: ''The Industrial and Immigration Association believing that the best in terests of Greensboro demand an elec tric street car system, electrio power for manufacturing, and a more com- filete system of electric lights, furn sbing not only arc lights for the streets, but also incandescent lights for residences, atores and offices, and knowing that our present lighting coutract expires January 1, 1890, and learning further, that the Board of Aldermen is considering the mat ter of closing at an early date a new contract for lighting the streets de sires to urge your honorable body not to enter into any contract with any party or parties until every possible effort shall have been made to secure an electric system that shall furnish to the city : 1. Street lights. 2. Incandescent lights for stores, of fices and residences. 3. Conveniens electric , power for small manufacturingenterprises. 4. A street car system. The Peoples Party has always advo cated, as one of its cardinal principles, that all natural monopolies, whether covering the area of a city or the area of a State, or the area of a whole coun try, should be kept out of private bands, and, on the other hand, oper ated as public functions, as cost, for the benefit of the whole people. Within the last few years a large number of towns and cities in the United States have put this principle into operation, and at every place the people are more than delighted with the result. The Peoples Party principles wherever put into operation have proven to be beneficial and popular not only to the people of the country but to the peo ple of every town and city. We are delighted to see Greensboro about to take this wise and progressive step. Every town in the State should follow suit. Tax Caucasian SI per year, the time to subscribe. Now la THE BARK KB WOLTKS. The recent sseetiag of lb National Executive Committee of the Peoples Party held at Omaha was held for the purpose of adjusting all hoo eat difference of opinion rmong the members of the committee and members of the party generally. on questions o' politics. When the com mittee adjourned, every one felt aati fled that ibis much desired reull had happily been aseomplUhed The alrong oiiddle-of-ibe road mat of Texas and the strong co-operatie t atea of Ne braska, Kaoaa and Colorado all left the c mmitter meeting tqually pleased and aatufled with the agreement and understanding reached. There was juat a handful of dUorgao xera who did not want harmony and who did not want fbe aucceas of the Peoples Party, but who, for ome reason, best known to themselves, were determined todestroytte party if possible, who were not aatiafied, and who bjlted the action of the committee after the com mittee bad adjourned. These few bolt ing soreheads and goldbug agent in duguise proceeded to call a rump so called national convention at Cincir- nati. It appears from the result of that meeting that they succeeded in fooling some honest men to attend that meeting. There were only about SO delegates present frosj only a bandfuj of states, and every one of these were self-constituted, representing practi cally no one but himself. Yet when the honest men among tbem got there and saw the real design and purpose of Wharton Barker and his crowd of co conspirators they repudiated the whole outfit and issued an address which was published in the last issue of Thx Cau casian, declaring that they had been deceived by Barker and bis followers and that tbey there and tten repudia ted bis meeting and would return to the regular organization and abide by its action. Thus Barker had less than fifty self appointed delegates in his meeting who put him and Donnelly up for President and Vice-President. The gold syndicate will no doubt furnish the?e fellows with all the money they need, but they have now put them selves outside of the organization of ths Peoples Party, and therefore, not withstanding the gold syndicate might furnish tbem an immense amount of money tbey will not be able to use it to disorganize the Peoples Party from the inside. We want to congratulate the Peoples Party upon being rid of these few disorganizes and upon hav ing the party solidly united from ocean to ocean on the basis of the Omaha agieement. iJend for one hundred copies of the next issue of The Caucasian contain ing a report of the Thompson-Aycock joint debate which is today taking place in Wayne county. We will fur nish these copies at the rate of $1.50 per hundred. CUTTXE-FISH DEM O . RACY. When the cuttle-fHh wishes to hide his true position it opens its spleen bag of black gall and squirts the inky substance into the vr&w-r around iw The Cleveland hi. d Kan- m goldbugs who have captured the Democratic party in the interest of the railroad and trusts must needs, like the cuttle fish, squirt inky substance around it to bide its true position. When hon est men are in control of a party who intend to deal honestly with the peo ple it is not necessary for them to pur sue this cuttle-fish policy. If the Democratic party was right on the great and momentous economic ques tions before the people of the State, (which means millions of dollars, eith er in the pockets of the people cr in the pockets of the railroads,) they would go on the stump and discuss these questions from one end of the State to the other and arraign their political opponents for being on the wrong side and against the people. Tbey say it is necessary for them to get into power in order to give the State a white man's government. If tbey were right on the railroad and monopoly question they could more surely get into power by revealing their position on these questions than by-howling nigger or using any other slogan of tLe kind. They are playing cuttle-ash and muddying the water by the cry of nigger, because they dare not let the people know how tbey stand on the greatest and most mo mentous economic questions ever be fore the people of the country for set tlement. PEACE COMMISSION. The United States Peace .Commis sioners consisting of former Secretary of State Willian R. Day, United States Senators William P. Frye, Cusbman K. Davis and Geo.

The Commissioners are not bound or handicapped with any set duties or un reasonable conditions. ANOTHER EXCELLENT SHOWING. In this issue Thx Caucasian prists a report of the administration of mnn. ty affaira of Cumberfand under the De mocratic and Populist officials. The De mocrats evidently squandered the coun ty's money with a lavish band, while the V l.a. A . . f opuusu auring tneir administration have retrenched the coupty treasury and materially reduced expenditures. A most flattering report is that the school term has been extended one. third longer than under Democratic rule a matter that every taxpayer is vitally interested in. Let other coon. ties send in their reports. Elsewhere in this issue Is a letter from Mr. W. H. Cox, a prominent young Democrat in bis community. In his letter he states some strong reasons why he can no longer affiliate with the Democratic Dartv as now lead by the Ransom-Simmons-Jarvis combination. It is a very stronsr let. ter and the charges he brinm anint the Democratic party cannot be re futed. He will cast his vote in No vember with the PoDolists to defeat the corrupt ring that now .controls the G.O.P, FROM FOOT TO KNEE vfiio Woman Suffered Great Agony From a Terrible Sore Her Story of t the Cast, and Her Cur.

XAAi D2I1 r" lavonte family The Ransom machine that controlled the Democratic State Convention bad their platform to crclare against gov ernment by injunction; but the peo ple of the State will take notice that the speakers sent out by the Democrat ic machine are not discussing this question of government by injunction, nor any other of the vital economic questions before the people. Instead of doing so they do nothing but howl "nigger" from one end of the State to the other, hoping, under the cover of tbis negro cry, to get men elected to the legislature who will betray the people on the question of government by injunction and other corporation reforms, as the Democratic members of the last legislature did. The Peoples Tarty members of the last legislature ottered a bill to put an end to govern ment by injunction in the State and to prevent foreign corporations from defeating justice by running to feder al courts with cases that ought to be tried in our State courts. Nearly ev ery single Democratic member of the legislature voted against this bill. If even half of the Democrats in the leg islature had voted for the bill it would have become a law. The Peoples Par ty members will offer another bill in the next legislature to stop this grow ing and threatening menace not only to justice but to the foundations of our institutions. If the voters do not force every Democratic candidate for the legislature to pledge himself on every stump to vote for the enactment of the Wisconsin statute in this State to pre vent government by injunction, and to force foreign corporations to submit to our State courts; and, further, force every Democratic candidate for the legislature to pledge himself to vote for a reduction of passenger rates to 2 cents, and a reduction of freight rates to the gold standard level, and further pledge them to vote to set aside the in famous midnight ninety-nine year lease by any lawful means, then it is '"t certain as the sun continues to rise that a majority of the Democratic member? of the next legislature will go over to the side of the railroads and help defeat every one of these reforms. If the Democratic negro calamity howlers were really afraid of tegro domination, why did they not accept a certain and eure means for putting an end to it wben the same was of fered to them? The fact is they dared not accept the Peoples Party proposi tion because that would have prevent ed them from getting any campaign funds from the railroads and pledge them to stand for the people for cer tain reforms against the monopolies and trusts. The "nigger in the wood pile is the railroads, monopolies, and trusts, who are running the Demo cratic machine. If you want copies the of great joint debate that is today occurring between Thompson and Aycock in Wayne county tor distribution, don't fail to send in your order at once. If you are late sending in your order yon may miss getting what will be the finest campaign document you can possibly get.

Editor or The Caucasian : With your permission I wish to make a few observations on tbe political situation and the way in which some of the peo ple see fit to meet it. It must be con ceded that in some places at least, that the '-nigger and poor white man are on top politically so far as State and coun ty matters are concerned in North Carolina, for tbe simple reason that they have seen At to pull together for what they have considered their com mon good. Are they mistaken? Have they been duped? That is the ques tion that each and every person will have to answer individually. But allow me to say that some of tbe Democrats are, in their zeal, urtiog their own party and damaging the cause which they are attempting to serve. There is in the city of Wilmington a daily newspaper which is edited by a foul mouthed ranty demagogue giving ex pression to some of the grossest slan ders on the white people of the State. Some say on the poor white wo men, any one can read the article and see that it includes all. The slander is equally against tbe men, as being indifferent, etc. Sucb sentiments as that (and it is needless to tell it to an intelligent man) is condemned and de nounced by every man, white or black, of whatever creed or party who is not lost to all virtue of self respect. Yet some or tbe organs of tbe Democrat party, among which are included pi pers here in the town of Wilson who, aiiowiog it to oe iaiee would be an in suit to their intelligence to charge umerwise, attempt, to lay upon tbe Re publicans and Populists tbe responsi bility for tbe words of this foulmouth ed rascal. Wben every intelligent man knows that the Rpnnhlian f Populist Party are no more responsible ior bue expressions ot mis ranting dog than Napolean Bonaparte or George Washington, the Jacobins of x luauce, or me -urusaaers" such ex nressions were nod he onh man k fore the Ponuliat Part vriatad n fu sion was thought of, while Democrats ruieo. i wouia nxe to ask what party according to their logic was to blame then. Does it heln the notrm anrl an courage him to try to believe himself to pomi, io su.cn aevus as tne Wiimtng- iou cuuui iuu say oenoia wnat an negroes would be if tbey were to nave positions and offices. They do thin for a purpose, but it will redound to their own injury. Because every decent nea-rn. and r maintain that there are detent negroes) will n sent the insult and wcrk harder for its party and cause which are thus villi nea ana placed in a fal-e position, and me -poor wnite man" despite tbe ad vice of certain know-alls does not yet consider it necesaarv foe hlmiAiih alarm fcr the virtue of his race at the ravings or some deluded negro and change bis politics to save his race morally, for sucb is tbe advice, in sub stance, given by some of tbe Democra tic organs, Iftuch actions, such sub terfuges, were not so ridiculous it would be pitiful to see to what some people will stoop to gain their ends. Do you see the point fellow Populists, if you do then rallr and atand m nn guns, and victory will perch upon your oauuera on no v. o, as neretoiore. . ' Dxmfsxt Pool, Wilson, N. C.

From the Seventh District la Making; It Hot for hi Oppoaent Klntta Defeat Predicted. Lxxikotos, X. O, Sept. 16, 1897. Mr. Editob : Thb Caucasian i a welcome visitor every week. I sin cerely wish it could go into every fam ily in North Carolina. If my health would allow I would do much work for it, but I am not able to go much, and consequently am not any benefit to yon, more than my own indiviual subscription. Tbe political truths we get from your paper cannot be suc cessfully contradicted. Theo, V. Klattz spoke in our town last Tuesday during noon recess of court to a full house, with honied words, advising mildness, without the usual bitter denunciations of any thing. He spoke of tbe Democratic party and what it has done and wou Id do. But be just could not help but naif quote and misquote. Tbis habit seems to be hereditary with all Demo cratic orators. He made assertions galore, and it would have taken at least three hours to contradict and prove tbem false. M. H.U. Caldwell replied, and for one boor be astonished everybody with tbe torrent of words that flw from bis moutb. (He is aeemingly ao quiet and unassuming) But be was for tbat hour, a Gatling gun with tbe rapid fire an attachment, and even at that rate, be could not reach all tbe assertions Klutf z bad made, tbat need ed correction. But be done nobly, aad I predict tbat before tbe 4a appoint ments are filled in tbia Congresaional district Mr. Klottx will find himself rery bidly defeated A. If . II i at 13t Ktw Sebaeribeea.

Continued from 1st page.l half, was consumed and he ap peered glad or it and after a few more attempts to be pathetic, a few calls oniod, and various references to the oioie, be yielded tbe floor to lr. t"yrn ThomfMMt. Chairman Weddington of the Ca barrus Populiat executive committee Introduced Mr. Thompson in a very happy manner. Not many Populists were present who were not electrified by the Doe tor's remarks, and while the speech from besrinninsr to end waa ehara. terixed by deep thrusts and hard bita . a aa . none out tne blindest patty adher ents could find a single statement made by him that could not be conatru ed as a direct answer to charges made bv Mr. AYCOek and. tharafnr caiiM not, as the Democratic papers charge, nave Deen "too indecent to be print ed." Mr. Thompson raid tbe Democrat ic party never bad had any issue but the "nigger." The only exception was in 18, when, fearing an etodns from their party, they stole the Popu list platform and principles of free silver. In the Democrat ie party there is no hope for the plain people. Clem Manley refused an offer ot fu sion from Butler in 189G made to Chambers Smith and Peoples. I haven't found one Populist going back to the Democratic party. The Democrats are not honest in their cry for white government. If they were why didn't tbey endorse Fowler in the third district! Thomas, their nominee, is not a better man. Why did they nominate Klotti in the 7th district instead of endorsing Morri son Caldwell! When they have of fered to co-operate on tbe basis of principle we have net them half way always. We are fighting tbem now because their deeda prove tbe insincerity of their professions. We don't like to fese. No party dots. We have to fuse to maintain the in tegrity of our organization. In 1896 we fused with tbe Democrats because a silver man (Bryan) headed the ticket, but when tbey taeked an avowed goldbog on their tieket for second place we couldn't stand it. We stood by Bryan the vote ahowa it- Did you do as much f 44 Who controls the Democratic par ty ia Notth Carolina V he aaked. Why, A. B. Andrews and the booth era railway. Andrews named Him raons, the secret circular man, for Dexocratie chairman. Andrews vo ted for McKioley, but Andrews ia Ayeock's boss." He simnlv riddled Mr. Avm.1. attack on the Populists regarding Ie the appointment of "Nigger Jiml iouug-asan inspector for tbe in stitution of the blind, and showed that B. F. Montague, a Democrat, chairman of the board of directors, waa responsible for Young's inspec tion of the building. Furthermore, he ahowci how one, Watson, a negro from Vance county, waa appointed by speaker Lee 8. Overman in 1893 as the inspector of the blind asvlnm. In 1R7Q Ktnr pi. liaon, a negro, was appointed bv Democrats to the same position. "Talk abont naera iarnr " he, "Warren coanty had a negro reg ister ot aeeos ior twenty-five years, and he was bonded by white uemo erats.
