4? i I'he Concord Time3. 'v PUBLISHED EVERT THUR8DAY CONCORD. N. C. BYJOH N B.;8HERRIU-I. ' : v ; , ' Editor and Proprietor. ' In the December number ' of the North American Eeview Mr. Bryan baa an article in which he discussed the re sult of the "election as affecting the Status of the silver question. The i Bue on which the election turned he ae Bcribes as "the greatest issue ver iub- nutted to-the American people in time of peace." . The declaration of the Chi; cago convention in favor ; of the ; fret coinage of silver forced upon the people of this country a study of the money question in general, and within the last four months, more people have been simultaneously engaged in its considera- tion than ever before in the history of the world. . The result of this study Mr Bryan declares to "jibe -'"'temporary de feat, but permanent gain for-the cause o bimetallism." Mr. Bryan regards it 'as a significant fact that the silver sen timent was strongest where the question had been longest considered; that is to say, in the West and South. ' "The Ealeigh correspondent of the Char lotte Observer j4 'is assured on authority that Judge Norwood will be impeached." - - We think he ought to be. : The people of North Carolina have put up as long as They should with the drunken and dis graceful conduct of this man, and the lesson should be taught by His impeach ment that no man who makes a public spectacle of himself and is a constant violator of law should be allowed to ait . on the bench to judge his fellows. The Biblical Recorder says of this case: .f "This is not the first time such dis graceful conduct has been reported of Judge Norwood.". He seems to be a : hopeless Bubject of strong drink. He , i ought to resign for his own sake. If he does not he ought' to be 1 impeached. ; The bench should be kept above re ! proach, above all other parts of the gov- eminent." - " On last Saturday wheat sold on the New York Produce Exchange for a fit tie over a dollar a bushel.- It is.fiafe to say now that the entire surplus wheat of this country can be marketed at $1 of more per bushel, and it is estimated that it is nearly or quite 70 per cent, of the wheat crop is yet in the hands of the farmers, who will get the full benefit of the advanced price.

Notes and Accounts Unpaid Should b Ke- duesd to Judgments. C. W. TUlett in Charlotte Observer. There is . absolutely no investment . that a business man can make which r will yield a larger return for the outlay than that necessary to reduce his uncol lectible notes and accounts -to judg menta, and have the judgment docketed in the Superior Court. It is the lcus-, . torn with a large number of business - men when a note or,account cannot be collected to charge it up on the profit . and loss account, and let it run out of date. :: This is great folly. It costs but, a very small sum to reduce a, claim to judgment, and even theugh the debtor had nothing at the time, yet it will be found that in a surprisingly large -"number .of cases, ther debtor wL'l acquire . something before f.he judgment- runs out of date; We knew of at least two instances where judgments were taken against parties who" were wholly insol vent at the time, but the judgments . were collected years afterwards out of the insurance money coming to the judgment debtors upon the death of certain relatives. For a much stronger reason,' if the debtor has any land at . all, a judgment should be taken, be cause the judgment, if properly dock eted in the Superior Court, wiIlbeconie a lien upon the land, and will be col lected some day, when the homestead right falls in; and in the meantime any person who purchases the land from the judment debtor, will take it subject to - the lien of the judgment. .'

An ewftfcg naner here mints arr account of a coo versatioh between President Clfivalatii and a prominent Democratic poil&eflm, in which the former expressed ai JeogQi his views upon the future of fiie Own crahc nartv. The -President- Ms, & cording to the story, that Wfcite a bter der was made by the leaaars wa rw trolled the convention at Chibao l&sfy July, he is hopeful . that many of um men responsible for that action "wiS. be convinced of their folly in-tae nea su ture. He expects to see th$ organja tion brousrht back into the troo Dato- cratic t)ath, and he is confident that th party, by. repudiating at tkflre P?0"- tunity tne aoctnnes procuwaaca at u cago, camquickly recover meh ol the ground lost in the.late cam$ai. it w to those Democrats who foHotred Bryan olelv on the eround of VretJtjlidTit. and- to their brethren who 0rganjue5 the' movement leadine to thelttcuftnas olis convention, that Mr. Qteveiantii looks for the . re-organbtatkoi and,,; re habilitation of the Domoaratio faS&r. He is confident that they" will net fol low the free silver extremists ixtbo- the Populist camp,; but will glaflly up back into the Democratic fold when the "parting of the ways" is readied v as U it will be very shortly, in hia, opimon. The number of these Democrat is rach greaterj Mr." Cleveland Bays, than wost persons suspect It is his estimate thai in many of the Southern States, partic ularly, probably a third of the votes given Mr. Bryan were cast by Demo crats who were influenced in refl$fitering their ballots exclusively because $f th "regularity." v-V'' :a Mr. Cleveland is said te aBXpflol that the radical clement of party, com t posed, as it is, of men who enthQsiasa cally endorse all the daigereiB doJtrinefl proclaimed at Chicago, wiU ahxatfy tJJ , of marketability. It la no Rwallowfid urt in the PonuBst oruai tion. It is the President's &ea thaftael sooner they go the better it will be for the Democratic party. He wants fee re-organization to be affected alosg th lines laid down in the IndianapoSs pUV form, which he regards as the ec4bpdi ment of essential Democratic prLOcrpldB. The President insists , that it is only to the Democratic party, purified and rejuvenated as he hopes it will be; by this Bloughing-off process, and by' a cessions from the EepublicaAS and, in dependent voters, that the peopla can look with any degree of hope or confi dence for relief from their burdens. He thinks the greatest dangers whichnow menace the country are the rread ofJ organized wealth and t the rapacity ca corporations.

A correspondent of the Progressive Farmer dwells upon the fact, brought out by the Baleigh News and Observer, that the State printing, under reform, has cost $15,000 more within the past two years than it had ever cost in any previous two years, and that freight and expreSBage are to be added to this. The correspondent recites, in addition, that a quantity of the , State work has .been- sent to Richmond, Va., to be done, thus working injustice to home printers, and adds that "This is not only: unjust but disgraceful: and more especially so as both the Populist and Bepubiican parties pose as the fiieud to the working people, and the paople have so regarded them." It al ways appeared to us that it would have been a good scheme for' the Democrats to have developed such little matters as these, daring the recent campaign. and brought them .to the attention of the people; but ' you can't fuse with folks., and ' still talk about them.
