Toni Dixon Says Free Silver
" is Really Counterfeiting.
TO VISIT THIS STATE.
And Enlighten the Benighted The New
York Divine so Announces Wants'
to Meet Senator Tillman or Butler
His Congregation Threatened.
Thomas Dixon had another excit
ice Sunday of it in New York . His
text was,: "Thau ShalfNot Steal
Er. Dixon applied this old law di
rectly to the advooafesof free silver,
He said they wanted the govern-
ment to go into the eouutm lotting
'business, for that is what free silver
means.
The Rev. Thos. Dixon, Jr., an
nou need to a congregation that pack
ed the Academy .of Music Sunday
that ho should continue speaking
on the national political issue every
Sunday until November, and that
between Sundays he would be
found down in North Carolina en
lightening the benighted of that lo
cality. '"What I said last Sunday, "he re
marked, "was -only my introduction
to the subject. If you think you
can't stand it you had better get out
now, for I warn you that no dis
turbance will be permitted. If you
will take the trouble to read the
Criminal Code you will find that it
provides for the arrest and punish
ment of people who disturb church
congregations; and I assure you that
full advantage of this section of ef
fect Mr. Bryan's election would
have on of necessity."
Mr. Dixon then turned his atten
tion to his challengers to public de
bate, one of whom is Professor Ed
win V. Wright, whoso challenge was
issued through the Journal.
"The fact is," said the preacher,
"I can't meet sixteen challengers at
one time. It is necessary that they
should-Sond forth their champion.
titrH.here is one qualification which
I must insist upon my opponent
must be able to spell. I cannot con
sent to debate with a man who is
superior to our established ortho
graphy. "I will willingly meet any one
"whose platform ability is recognized.
If Senator Butlor or Senator Till
man, of South Carolina will accept
the position of champion for the op
position I will be only too glad to
meet either of them.
. - The preacher said that he would
answer no" questions except those
intelligently stated in writing and
placed in the box provided for that
purpose. He would n.ow answer
several such. They were of the
stereotyped character and were
answered in the stereotyped man
nerexcept that of an inquirer who
wanted to know what effect Mr.
Bryan's election would have on the
tenmerance question. This was
Sr. Dixon's answer.
My investigations have satisfied
roe that the principal cause of in
temperance is poverty. Therefore,
it is my belief that the success of the
political element represented by Mr.
Bryan will increase the intemper
ance of the country athousand fold."
Another Inquirer was satirical.
i "When did you see Mr. Hanna?"
he wanted to know .
Mr. Dixon took advantage of this
opportunity to declare that if Mr.
' Hanna had any sense be knew that
a . his party could have the support of
every preacher, in this part of the
country freeof charge." Mr. Dixon
had never metor commun icated with
tho grntleman. ' Coming td his ser
. moo. the preacher said:
" "In this second of my series of
' talk's on the money issuo I shall only
, touch upon" the" salient principles.
You will find my text, and my war
rant for bringing this subject into
the Dulnit. in Exodus, xx.. 15-
"Thou shalt'cot steal ".
, Mr. Dixon promulgated his first
- "salient principle" as follows:
"The free silver conspiracy is a
gigantic Capitalistic conspiracy of
silver mine owners. , ,'-'
v Following are some other utter
ances: ' V f -
'The hens of this country layeggs.
'i I confess that the mystery of this
. process istteyond me; but I claim to
be a better judge of eggs than any
: ben that ever lived."
'The fifty tbreelcent dollar propo-
sition is a scheme to repeal the Cora-
mandment, "Thou shalt not steal.''
"Sixteen to one is a false .ratio"
v "Why ?'f interrupted a voice from
the gallery. .
'Tut your question in the box; I
will not be interrupted here."
"I am not talkingpolitics. I stand
with Moses, with Jeremiah, with
Isaiah "Thou shalt not steal."
"Mr, Bryan declares that tho free
coinage of silver will advance its
price. You can raise nn assumption
with the jawbone of an ass. "
"I am a Christian Socialist; but I
draw the line at Anarchy. "

Spencer
President Spencer, of the South
ern Railway, has addressed a letter
to the Georgia Railroad Commission
in reply to certain statements mado
by Mr. St. John, of the Seaboard
Air Line. Iu his letter Mr. Spencer,
among other things, says:
Jrfv attention has been directed to
the letters addressed to .you by Mr.
St. John, vice-president of the Sca
boaa Air Line, under dates of July
23rd and 27th lust, aud I appre
ciate thoroughly the appropriate re
buke which you administered to him
in the first sentaneo of 3'our reply of
July 24th.
I shall not inflict on you a discus
sion of the merits or demerits of the
points at issue between the South
ern Railway Company and the Sea
board Air-Line; but Mr. St. John
has injected into his correspondence
with you so many untrue and in
cendiary statements regarding the
Southern Railway and its purposes,
and has so endeavored to use that
correspondence to mislead and in
flame the public mind against this
company, that some authoritative
denial and refutation of his state
ments should be made of record
througli the same medium of publi
cation that was adopted by him.
Until now I have forborne to take
public notice of these and other
statements equally untrue and mis
leading, because outside parties in
ured by the action of Mr. St. John
and his associates recently brought
the entire subject matter of the con
troversy before court for judicial in
vestigation and for its decision,
which only recently has been ren
dered, and until after the decision
any discussion would have been
manifestly improper.
He would have you believe tluft
the present havoc in revenues, and
the general disturbance of business
relations, whether competitive or
otherwise, throughout the State and
tho entire South which his company
has inaugurated and is still contiuu-
ng, are but the manifestations of
his desire to protect tho people of
Georgia from threatened monopoly.
On tho waters of Chesapeake Bay
he and his associates, the managers
of the Bay Line are the avowed ene
mies of competition, and they "go to
war" to punish those whom they de
scribe as "intruders upon our
(their) domain. "
While he advocates and demands
monopoly, and claims a proprietor
ship 01 'domain" in Virginia and
Maryland, he necessarily subjects
himself to suspicion and discredit
when he displays such unnecessary
and apprehensive zeal for competi
tion in Georgia.
But this is not all.
Mr. St. John says in his cry for
your aid aud countenance :
'A majority of the stock of the
Seaboard Air-Line and of the Bay
Line is in hands where it cannot be
purchased by the Southern Railway-"
The fact is that a little less than
six months ago the majority of the
capital stock of the controlling com
pany of the Seaboard Air-Line was
offered to me and was not accepted.
If, as Mr." St. John asks you to be
lieve, the purpose of the Southern
Railway Company was to crush out
and Injure the Seaboard Air-Line, it
would not have surrendered volun
tarily as it did the leaseof the North
eastern Railroad of Georgia, which
tapped most effectively the next to
the largest business centre in the
State of Georgia reached by the
Seaboard Air-Line. There is no
place where so much injury could
have been inflicted upon tho Sea
board at so little cost,
", The Southern Railway company
has made no objections to competi
tion when, conducted - fairly ' and
openly upon "business principles,
and it has never sought to suppress
Its relations to its competitors
throughout -the Southern territory
today are abundant testimony upon
this point. ' ' . - :
It hus done nothing in its history
to oppress any interest, and J ehal
lengo Mr. St. John or any one else
to produce "any evidence of an' at
tempt" w dusiro upon its part to do
so. It has not raised the rates at.
any point, and it has not attempted
to control them; and it is impossible
to conceive that any acquisition or
combination by it of Hues in the
South could be sufficiently strong to
enable it to exercise an absolutecon
trol over rates at any point. No
combination can be large enough in
the United States to control rates,
and the railroad manigcr who at
tempts it or asserts it writes himself
a fool. There can be no clearer
proof of what would be the futility
of such efforts than the present rate
situation in the- South, when one
small line, GOO miles in length, from
Portsmouth to Atlanta, destroys, as
it is now doing, the rate fabric from
New England to Nev Orleans, and
from the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers to Florida.
The errort ol the Southern Railway
has been, not to control rates, but to
keep them uniform and reasonable
and public, and the testimony of
substantially cvorv member of the
Southern States Freight Association
would be to this effect if such testi
mony should be asked by v.mr com
mission. It bus scmghl ..lability and
the stoppage of secret 'cutting,"
aud other ilh jrit;mate methods of
operation. I tff policy has been and is
to build up. not to pull down or de
stroy. It lias improved every piece
of property which it conirols within
the State of Georgia or elsewhere,
and has furnished improved facili
ties and accomodations for the pub
lic without any increased charge.
Mr. St. John complains that (lie
Macon and Northern and the Geor
gia Southern and Florida arc not
made parts of througli line.-, u ith
his.
Tho Macon and Nor t her 11 was for
months after the insolvency of the
Contral and the Richmond and Dan
ville in the control of its bondhold
ers entirely free and independent of
either conporatiou. The controlling
bond-holder during this period was
the especial friend and financial sup
porter of the Seaboard Air Line, the
banker who floated 1 1 14- bonds to
build the Georgia, Carolina and
Northern. The managers of the Sea
board Air Lino will not deny that
the property was offered to them in
preference to the Central. For rea
sons best known to lliein, they did
not secure it, although it was a legi
timate extension of their line to Ma
eon. TO MEET MR. 15 RYAN.

Ilolton Talks Through Ills Hat.
Chairman Holton was asked yes
terday what he thought of Mr.
Manly 's interview given out Satur
day. "I think Mr. Manly isantieipating
defeat," the Republican chairman
said. "He is making an excuse
this early for certain defeat in No
vember by changing fraud."
"Mr. Manly questions tho inter
view in which you stated that the
Democrats defrauded the ballot box
of 30,000 votes at the lust election, '
the Chairman was told.
"The interview was genuine, not
a voteless than 30,000 was stolen,
and I will refer hiui fo'tlie counties
of Halifax.-Wayne and Johnson and
others and third ward In Winston if
bewants to know specifically - where
fraud was carried on. Whom the
Gods would destroy thoy first make
mad."
"Mr. Manly is a mighty , clever

Mr. HoTlon up, to the time he ac
cepted the chairmanship. -' . '
Caucasian Says that of the

PAPER DEFENDS IT.
Says the Posibility of Democratic Success
Makes One'sliiiJJer.-IJeniocruts I'rcc
Silver Views Attacked and
Discredited.
ill ine Caucasian tommorrow there
will appear a very unusual editorial.
Editor Ayer says thewction of his
committee last week is .inconsistent
and that itio people cati resent it if
they so desire.
The editorial says that the only
power delegated to the committee
by the State Convention' was to com
plete the State ticket, a)id that tho
action of the committee Which went
beyond that is simply recommenda
tory and cannot be regarded as
officially binding or committing any
one to its support.
The Caucasian further says: ''That
the action of the committee appears
to involve inconsistencies. For our
purpose we shall admit that the
action is inconsistent. After making
the admission, it rests with thecom
mittee, or some one, to advance
reason or cause strong enough to
counterbalance the inconsistency.
If this cannot be doncj then the
action of the committee cannot be
defended." The editorial says that
the committee has not positively
done the wrong thing. "Until the
final result of any action or move
ment is known, no one has a right
to charge that the actors or movers
are seeking to accomplish anything
except that for which they have de
sired." Whether the general opinion was
well based or not, ft was admitted
that with three tickets in the field,
the Democratic party had a .'chance"
to win.
That proposition made everybody
shudder. It was known if the Dem
ocracy should vviu, imnilU.'MiJpjj'ith
an arrogance and brutality that
would make lite uncomfortable for
everybody who had dared to show
independence enough to oppose it in
any way. "The honest ballot and
local self-government bugaboos are
also touched upon by the Caucasian.
The paper says: "If the commit
tee has made a mistake in suppos
ing the people don't desire the reforms
enacted by the last legislature -then
let the committee's action be
repudiated. The action is recom
mendatory to be approved or reject
ed as the judgment of the people
may determine.
The Caucasian says national issues
were not overlooked and accuses the
Democracy of insincerity, citing as
instatcas, the party 's refusal to ac
cept the Populist proposition for
complete fusion on all matters and
also the "appropriation"of the Pop
ulist platform by the Chicago con
vention. "Two items of special interest were
noted. The Democrats persistent
refusal to do anythingasan evidence
of sincerity and the second was that
if the agreecment recommended
should be approved at the proper
time, as many Representatives who
favor silver and who will vote
against the gold standard will go to
Congress from this state as could
possibly be sent there by Democrats
or Democratic aid under the present
election law. No hesitation was felt
in presenting the agreement as it
stands being con vinced that nothing
would be lost to the cause advocated
by the Peoples Party."
"But let it be remembered all the
time that circumstances alter cases.
If the agreement, with all that is
now expected to accompany it, can
not be approved by oneof the parties
to it; it cannot be approved by tho
other."
An Elegant New Store.
The elegant new establishment

decididly one of the handsomest and
showiest places in the State. The
interior is large and spacious and
elegantly appointed, and the mam
moth front windows gi ve the store's

beautiful stock including all lines is

By Telegraph to tho Press-Visitor.
Pouti.axii, Maine, Sept- 13. Tho
result of yesterday's election is
coming in very slowly and will not
probably nil be in before tomorrow
The vote from the cities und towns
which poll more than two-thirds of
the entire ballot of the State indi
cate that the Republican plurality
for Powers will be between 4S.II00
aud 50,000, the largest in the history
of the State. In every county the
Republican ticket was successful.
Nearly all showed gains. The
Democratic vote was about 20 per
cent less than iu "2. The tuy at

Prohibition vote shows a loss. Three
hundred towns out of five hundred
and nineteen cities and towns give
Powers sixty-six thousand nine

BUSY DAY AT THE l'EX.
A llig Hutch of (TonlctsArrie and Others
arc Sent Off.
The day was a very busy one at
the Penitentiary. Many i.ew re
cruits were received and thirtv-
three of the regulars were sent to
the Halifax farms where they will
be put at work.
Henry Johnson, an escaped con
vict was returned. Johnson greeted
all the oHicials very familiarly and
broke the news to Capt. Fleming
that lie had written him a letter in
which he announced his intended
return. Capt. Fleming was very
sorry, out some how the letter taileil
to reach him.
A V 1 1 i 1 e Johnson tried to make it
appear lhathis return was voluntary,
lie was arrested in (lilford county
on a charge ol larceny ain returned
at the solicital ion of the penitentiary
authorities who identified him as an
escaped convict. Johnson has been
away a year
Among the new arrivals at the
penitentiary were four lodgers and
boarders from Martin county, one
from Burke, one from Anson and
live from Mecklenburg. Shcrilf
Smith, of Mecklenburg, had mostly
long-tenners. One of them gets IT)
years for attempted rape on a little
child; another gets VI years and
two are to serve terms of H years
each.
WAS A CLOSE CALL.
A Jaggy Carvitc Came Near Iteing Crushed
to Death at the Depot.
Yesterday afternoon, a white man
by the name of Sturgis, from Cary
came near losing his lite wnuetrying
to get a board theGoaboard passenger
train in the UiiioiT shed.
Sturgis was pretty well cupped
up and he had one of those varigated
jags which throws one into a state
of utter recklessness. Before the
arrival of the train, Sturgis afforded
amusement for the crowd by pur
chasing a number of tickets to Cary,
all of which he tore up and stuffed
in his coat pocket. He had money
to burn.
Mr. Bunch asked Sturgis if he
was going on t lie train betore ne
signaled the conductor to go ahead,
and the man replied that he was
not.
When the train was moving out of
the shed at a very rapid rate, the
drunken man made a divcand caught
hold of the railing of a car step. He
failed to land his feet on the steps
and his legs fell down between the
cars and the depot platform. In this
position he was dragged 30 feet, the
horrified spectators expecting every
second to see him pulled under the
car wheels and killed. Several peo
ple cried out and left the scene.
Had it not been for Peter, the
train porter who seized Sturgis hy
the coat and prevented his falling,
the man would have been crushed
to death. Peter hld him in that
position until the train could be
stopped andjaglets put aboard.

is supposed to have been making his
way home. The body . will arrive

engineer was too close upon him to
be stop.
The Coroner has been notified of
