Why, if he is not the greatest maa before tb,e world today it's because the world does not esti mate him as highly as Mr. .Butter does. Smart is he ? Why yes, just aa smart as he needs to be to munch the largest pie in the State. Can he talk well ? You bet your dear life if you want to, you won't lose. It's true he calls men that he does not like (and that eeems to be about everybody) 'jumping jacks" and "whippcrsnappers." If we were as mart as most people, and especially oar Populist brethren think Mr. Butler is, we would use words that have real meaning according to the dictionaries. Bat then we suppose they are good words, and cf course the new issues of Webster and Wor cester will have the words with the terms defined as per North Caro lina's Senator. He said too (listen school boys and girls) "They make you and I pay the tax." Of coarse, though, the text books in your schools may be adjusted to fit. The Sena'or thinks we newspaper men are hired or sold to the trusts etc. Surely we would not be such fools aa not to sell oat to somebody. The Senator seems to have an eye to the money that can be made out of the thing. Yes, he pulled his JODeS' well for a $5,000 iob and x Tthinks we should do something of 'the kind, forgetting that with true men principle is aoove money. The honorable Senator gave the newspapers quite a scathing, yes, he laid it on of ten and heavy and bor rowing Sam Jone's expression, "It's the hit dog that hollos," virtually admitted that a stone from The Standard man had hit the biggest growling dog in the kennel. - The Senator says that the bought agents of monopolies and combines even have to talk against them, the pressure is so strong. We suppose he does not mean to say that he is one among the bought ones that .must talk against them. He has been making a good bit of fasa ex cept when the Dingley tariff bill was being discussed and the Demo crats proposed to put all articles on the free list on which there is a trust. Just then we did not hear of Mr. Butler's making the usual row. But Mr. Butler says it is not the tariff that makes trusts, it is the Mr. Butler got through he let up on tho free silver somewhat and de clared for gold or ailfer just so it should be enough, but declared that both were too dear and that he wantad our money made of the cheapest stuff, paper, Je8 . green' backs. So the tools of monopolies talk against monopolies, sajs Mr. Bntler, Mr. Butler talks against them. The Democrats would burst the trusts not the tariff caused the trusts he had the chain of avidence complete. Of coarse the Observer stands proven to be a friend to trusts, we suppose, in the minds of such of Mr. Butler's hearers as he made believe that Job. P Allison, S B Alexander, Gen. Hoke, Oov. Carr and otners had en tered into a secret, wicked, treacher ou8 bargain to rob the people by the 99 j ear lease. Ar. Butler got quite religions at times, especially when he told how THE ST 3mlniinli! ROYAL TALuUM POWDER worth 25 c. at 8"c. 3 i. by placing trust articles on the fre the wicked Democrats were crying list eo that the world would be open to compete and a rust would be im possible, but where was our noble Senator then. The Dingley bill is the highest and most trust-ridden tariff bill ever passed by Congress (will Mr. Butler or anybody else dispute it ?) D d Mr. Butler record his vote against it ? No ! Now if we were half as Eospicious and ilhaccusing as he is, aLd cared as little what we say as the right Honorable Senator we would say with thundeiing emphases that he is in full accord with the trusts and the combination; but we do not say so, for we do not really believe so. We can hardly believe that Mr. Butler is as bad a man as he makes others out to be whom we believe to be better than he is. His explanation of trusts and how they are formed and how they operate is very good and the editor of this "little paper" understood it word for word, but he does not understand why Mr. Butler expa tiates most about it when there's no voting going on to down the traits. Mr. Butler seems to think every body is fooling everybody except that Mr. Butler always tells the truth and never fools anybody and especially the- Populists, for they can't be fooled. We have heard be fore that "you can't fpol a Populist." It might be well enough, on that as-. count, for us all to become Popu lists, hardly on any other account. The Senator was loud in his chaU lenges to anybody to tackle him, but if any of us had felt ourselves his equal in repartee, mixed up with badinage, balderdash and sacrilege, it would not have been right to weary him. The Senator was tired, Oh, so tired ! He has been working so hard for two whole year?. Yes, we all remember ho he did work to keep Mr. Pritohard from being ehc ted to the Senate afcer a moat positive bargain that if the Bepub Means would help tc send Mr. But ler to the Senate, the Populists would help to send Mr. Pritchard for the long term when the short term had expired. Yes, that was a hard time Mr. Butler had. Tired, of course he is tired I But no matter how tired, he came rushing in when he thought he saw Joe Caldwell and Joe Daniels about to creep into the same bed. The Senator is not much opposed to getting into the fusion bed with somebody, even if it includes the "brother in black," but its time to shout and rave when he thinks the Observer man and the News and Obs server man are about to lie down to gether. Tho 8enacor said the Charlotte Observer was in favor of trusts, monopolies and things of that kind and that he could prove it. After leaving us to wonder about that proof till ) he discovers aboat the railroads, churches and colleges, in cluding their presidents as, all be longing to the money monopolies, he returned with his logic that was as tounding, perfectly astounding,. He said its editor was in favor cf the gold standard, and, by Mr. Butler's assertion tha the gold standard and "nigger" "and we wondered Jf our Marion should not. turn preacher. But he shook our faith in his bibli ci8m when he said they put a mark on Cain, that everybody would be on ROYAL the lookout for him bo that he could WED.DIJNG not kill anv more of them.

And as for smartness there is no doubt but that he has that. He can stir up more suspicion and destroy more confidence between man and man than all the smart men and find the least that is right and the moit that is wrong. j He said, too, that ib our last leg islature the trusts bought just enough Populists to carry their point and stopped rght there, that the trusts knew just hen they had bought enough. It sounded just like the trusts stopped buying be cause the supply was sufficient and not that there wtre no more property tor ' sale. This seemed the "most unkindeat cut of all."
