National Alliance Resolution, passed at Ocala. A rnYSICIAN AT GoLDSBOKO has decided, it is said, that Dr, Ex nm is both physically and mentally incapacitated to make the oara' paigu. IIon. A. Leazau was nominated at Salisbury last week as president tiai elector for this district. In this the convention did a wise thing as Leazar has shown himself to be a I03 al Deuiocia'. While some or the Third party pa pers are accusing Clevelaud of being too favorable to pensions, the Re publicans are charging that he loet 25,000, votes in the last campaign tor his apposition to pensions, The Republicans are right wheu they say Clevelaud opposed pensions. Cleve land knew it would be a terrible drain to the South to heap up uu" necessary pensions and he said he was the president of the ichole peo ple. Some of these Third partyites j have become so accustomed to talk j tf Wall Street that they have not j yet ceased to speak of Cleveland as j being in league with Wall Street, j wheu they ought to know that he J was nomiuated against the protest j of a full delegation from New York. ! Cleveland was nominated iudepenn ( dent ot New York and of the poll ; ticians. Behold how men's preju- i dices will mislead them. 1 WE BELIEVE ABOUT EVEEY ; thiukiug man is ready to abandon t'le warehouse sub-treasury system. Tow they are for a system that risay enable them lo borrow money j ou teal estate. Such a sysinra as j thin will ruin the country, because it would hood place all the land ; imn the huiid ot "landlords". What benefit could accrue to those who do not own real estate ! They could not borrow money. The re suit would be that those owning laud would borrow money from the government at a cheap late and loan it to norland owners at a high rate and take a mortgage on the latter's chatties. Would that be to the interest of the poor and the la boring c'ass? Thint on these things. Mr. Willsox, the Third party caudidate, has been challenged to meet Dr. Crouse and other speakers, lie has not yet said that ho would, but said he would if his committee thought it proper for him to do so. We renpeclfulry ask that hia com mittee grant him the privilege to participate in a joint discussiou I'lii Drmocratie speakers stuiui rend.v to meet any of the Third par ty speakers. The fact, is if the Third party wants to do the fair thing, let thorn meet the Democrats and le! both Hides have a hearing. When Wilson falls into the hands of Dr Crouse, he will see his lancied finan cial schemes and sub. treasuries dwindle into insignificance and van ish. The things that he has been trying to paint black by his ha rangues will become as white as snow under the touch of the doctor' logic- W do not blunio Wilsou foi not be.iug over anxious about dst cossion, as he has a weak cause to df feud. Hon. Jno. S. Henderson was nomiuated for Congress at the Con gressional Convention of this the 7th district, by acclamation last week. Henderson is oue ot the purest and ablest representatives thai the State has ever had. He has a ue a re cord as was ever made in the House of Congress. He is a geutleman worth' of the confidence of every southern citizen. It is a shame that any set of white people of this dis drict should presume that they could fiud a purer, nobler, more honest, abler and worthier represt entative than Henderson, aud es pecially should they be ashamed of presuming that, a man liko Shu ford is nt to succeed our Henderson. We have learned with pleasure trni newspaper reports and from persons presant, that in a joiut dis cussion at Salisbury Henderson literally tore Shuford to pieces with arguments, S thoroughly has fienderou succeeded in showing up the facts that Shuford has been bound to confess that his ouly ob jection to Henderson is that the latter is for Cleveland ! And this is about thei whole sum and sub stance of thest Third party leaders purpose. It is simply to beat the Democrats or to break up the Dem 00 atic party. The Republicans say they are going to beat the Demo crats "with the People's party'7. O: oourse the Democrats aie not going to be beaten ; but if there is any liope for any such tbiuf; it is just as '.he Republicans sav: it the Demo ( rata could be beaten at all it could only be done by the Republicans ''with the People's party". The Third jarty is a Republican annex and when tho houest farmers, who have allowed themselves to be led away from tho truu Democracy, see the fact jus? as they are, we believe they will return to the fold from which they have waudered. But whether a niugle Third partjite re turns or not, the Democrats are safe as it now stand. Henderson will be returned to Congress by the vote of uext November. KEPCIJLICAX CO. VJtiSTIOX A. Republican convention was held here last Saturday, The meet ing was called to order by J, A. C. Barkley. Postmaster J, B. Fortune, ot Shelby, was introduced to the audience of about 100, made np of Repnhlieaus, Democrats aud Third partyites. He alluded to his having been a candidate for cougress, aud said the boys over the mouutain beat the boys down here ami gave the nom ination to auother. He said he thought there ought to be an ordi nary man like himself sent to Con gress occasionally to look after mr. nor matters. For instance, the gov ernment, he said, ouyht to furutah a safe for each post office and other things that are supplied by post masters. He said the Alliance went into the Democratic convention and fused with the Democrats and out fused them, and nominated Mr. Carr. Mr. Fortune spoke in favor of an international money conference. He said O lea land had lost in the last campaiqn 25,0H) votes on account of his opposition to pensions ; and wo believe Mr. Foi tuuo let the truth out before he knew it, wheu be said that. He said the Republicans had the balance of power fin Cleveland Co. aud that they were going to make use of it. lo the Grst part of his speech he tried to prove that a protective tar iff did not effect the price of things. A little later on he proved how it did effect the price ot certain arti cles, but omitted to mention the most important goods effected and how much. He proved that the tariff enabled manufacturers to build up, and at the same time that it did not effect the price of goods I How in the name of the commonest horse sense can the tariff protect the manufacturer without increas ing the price of goods Can a bus inesa be protected and not be pro tected at the same time by the same law ? If the tariff protects wuwiu facturers it must necessarily do 1 by increasing the price of goods manufactured. No mau with three grains of sense can help but see that fact. How men could possibly be blinded by such a bundle of in consistent arguments, or rather as sertions, aa Fortune delivered him self of last Saturday, is more thai: we cau comprehend. We do noi bebeve he succeeded in the least in tooling anyone. Mr. Fortune is, perhaps, a jollj, clever citizen, but alas, such doc trine as he is teaching I However his speech iell flat here. One thing more we were about to forget to notice. He look the great est pains to speak encouragingly of the Third party and its candidates. He poured out words of honey all through his speech to the Weaver- tea. The love that the Republican are manifesting towards the Third party is nuboundiug. And yet you ask oue of them if he is going to support Weaver or "Congressman'' Shuford aud he will tell you nay quick enough. Such hypocrisy wa never before witnessed. In the Third party, the Republicans have an annex of which they are exceed iogly proud, but they will both be defeated. After Fortune's speech the con- veutiou adjourned till after dinner. When they had again come togeth er, Dr. C. L. McCaul was elected permanent chairmau and W. C. Mui len secretary. Dr. C. L, McCaul and W. C. Mul len were appointed delegates aud Adolphus Shitle and T. F. Stacy, alternates, to the State convention. Jno, P. Mullen and "Jake" Williams delegates to congressional conven tion, with Caleb Hoyle aud W. H. Cornwell as alternates. After some consultation, they then appointed J. li. Shelton anil Levi Sain to sen atorial convention, with Jno. A. Leon bar dt and L. A. H. Wilkinson as alternate. The delegates were an instructed. Several Republicans have told us that the Third prr.y is foolish to think the Republicans would support their ticket- The Republicans say that they are at sea as to putting out a county ticket. Their purpose is to use the Third party to bent the Democrats, and they are not exactly decided yet which is the best way to do it. In the meautime, it behooves the Dem ocrats to get their eyes open aud save the State from Republican rule. Prof, Gecbge Washington Hahn has seen fit to return hk last copy of the Lincoln Courier to the editor marked "refused" We knew the Courier had been getting iu some heavy work res cently. We knew that the foice of its arguments and its statements of facts would be hard to withstand by a Third party leader; but we did not thiuk that there could be any danger of its getting too forcible to be withstood by Prof. Hahu. But it verily appears that in order to avoid being couvinced and brought into the Democratic fold, Prof. Hahn was obliged to cease scanning its columns. The fact is the Cou rier is getting to be quite a dread in certain parts ot the county to the Republican party and its annex. We kuow there are a few honest men m the Third party who do not think that their party is a Repub lican annex, but that does not bin. der it from being so. Republicans do not hesitate to make bold the fact that the Third party is their only hope in the State. One wing of the party is bent on beating the Democrats nationally with the Third party, by not putting out a State ticket, while the other wing is bent on beating them both na tionally and in the Stato by putting out a State ticket. For the proof, j we simply refer to the Raleigh Skj- j nal. Bo'h wings are courting tlu Third party and feeding it witl honeying words- Farmers, bewan of the trap they are trying t get you into. Prof. Hahu wii please pardon ns for getting off thtr subject that gave rise to this littl : editorial. More important matter ; came to our mind and we forget about our friend Haho. Me. Petee M. Riiyne was her last Saturday to represent Gasto couuty at the Republican conven tion. Here is a piece of news L made bold to relate to us. He saic : "We are goiug to beat 'em in Gat -ton." "Beat whom f" we asked "Beat the Democrats." We asked "with whom," and he replied "witli the People's party." Those are hi exact words. The conversation OC' curred in the court house just as th convention was assembling. Whtt do t he "People's party'' think of tlu tact that they are being used as tool to "beat the Democrats" auo elect the Republicans? That i just what the Republicans ar counting on doing. Pete Rhyne i a revenue "Store Keeper" aud h been for a long time aud is, there fore, a pretty good represeutativ. of Gaston republicans. How thes Third partyites, who claim to b opposed to the present system o the national government, can re coucile themselves to the plan c joining in a jnovemeut to perpetu ate that system is more than au reasonable mind can comprehend The Third party simply amounts tc a Republican aunex. The Repub licans are rejoicing over it and thej are going to use it for all it is worth to break the "solid south," and thu they hope to open the way for then future success. Mention Third par ty to a Republican aud you bring a smile every time. They have nc more use for the Weavente princi ples than has the "man iu the moon", and they have no notio o voting with them. The Democrats who have left the faith of their tatt ers and the eternal political troth of their party as they are revealei iu Democracy, will regret the step they have taken sooner or later. I; js surprising that they cauuot se the tolly ot their course- Many o them are seeing it, and many mor of them will see it, we believe, be fore the election. Congressman Henderson or; The Financial Ilecora of The Democratic Parly. Last Saturday we republished, from tue Salisbury Herald, the fol lowing extract from Congreesmar John S, Heudersou's recent repeats ed applications for the number o: the Chronicle containing the article, we reproduce it. The Sali&bur Herald reports Mr. Henderson t have said : "The principle question before the people of the United State: waa the fiuancial question, and upor. this the democratic party stoo5 squarely by the people. He defied any man in the house to poiut oul any bad fiuancial law upon tb statnte books that was put there bv -democrats, 8371,000,000 of green backs was in circulation to day ;ha would have been setired but to the vigilance of democrats. 88,000 000 o? silver dollars, 4the dollars 0 our daddies," were coined from 179'1 to 1873, when silver was demone tized. The demonetization of sir ver was a swiutle aud waa passer withot notice to the people, or Con gress. No man could denounce ihfu swindle more strongly thau him eif. The 44th Cougress the firs: democratic Congress siuce the war passed a fiee coinage bill, but i: died iu the Senate. The 45th Con gress passed a similar bill, which also pissed the Senate, but war vetoed by President Hays. Sc strong was the sentiment of the people in favor of this measure that it was passed over the President' veto. Uuder the operations of this lawthe bland act $450,000,000 hass been put in circulation. Every cent of thi.s in democratic money and is circulated among the common people. Not a dollar ot it would be in circulation to-day but for the strength aud vigilance of the dem ocratic party. $800,000,000 in greenbacks and silver is in circula tion to-day, that would have been retired but for the strong democrati ic oppoMr.on to the lepublican schemes: The republicans elected a majority in the fifty-first Congress and repealed the Bland act and suspended the coinage of the Bland dollars, in the place of which they required the secretary of the treas- ury to purchase $4,500,000 worth of silver bullion each month aud issue treasury notes therefor. $100,000 000 of these notes are iu circular tiou. The republicans had tried to stop the circulation of these, too but democrats had preveuted it. It is due only to the vigilance of dem ocrata that over $900,000,000 of the $1,600,000,000,000 in circulation to day is not retired and the amount reduced to less than $700,000,000. The people want and need more money. He was always willing to vote for an increase of the circulat ing medium, and will do so again if re-elected. The republican party is pledged to retire 8900,000,000 of the $1,600,000 iu circulation, and if the people eleot a republican Con gress and President this year, the Sherman bill repealing the act ot 1890 will be carried into effect. The people are complaining of hare times now, but times will be hare inded if the republican scheme ot contraction is carried out. It h strange, when people are suffering from bad laws of one party fur their to turn round and pass a verdict o: guilty upon another." Tried and Found Wanting. The Democratic party of Tennes see tried Gov. Buchanan and found him wanting. Therefore the Dem ocratio party did not renominate bim, and Buchanan runs as an in. depeudeut, appealing especially to the Third party to support him. The recent labor troubles in Ten nessee have demonstrated Ruchan an's unfituess for the position ot Governor. His timid policy ha? not ouly caused much needless bloodshed, but it has given the State a bad advertisement, neces sarily injurious to its material pros perity. Capital will be slow to venture in a State where lawless ness has been allowed to reign for months unchecked. If Buchanan had manfully ordered out the mili tary at ouce and thus checked the insurrectionary miners in the be ginning of their violent measures he would have nipped thbir riots in the bnd. He was fearful of -the political effect. He displaced bis real character, and the result that he is denounced by all classes. j liichmond State. j Dr. Exum.
