The power that could re establish silver coinage would compel the use of sdver with c-old in the redemption of greenbacks This would do away with the false pretense that bonds must De soiu wim which to buy gold to redet m green backs. It would remove the constant menace, by the gold gang that the le gal tender quality .shall be taken away from the. vast amount of silver dollar now in existence. It would add enough to the money in circulation m the country each year, to keep pace with the increase of population and the requirements for domestic ex changes. It would make all the sil ver bullion in the world worth just as much as though it were aire idy coin ed into dollars. It would stop green back s from letng presenxea ai me Treasury, because Heidelbacn, lickel heimer & Co., and the rest of the breed of gold speculators would be olTered fcilver when they demanded gold and they would not want it. Free' coinage would guarantee the stability of the currency. The grind ing contractions now going on would cease The borrowed surplus in the Trpnsurv of nearly $2000,000,000 would be expended in grand public improvements including coast de fences, and thus be restored to cir culation among the people I It would graduall raise the general level of prices. The production of wheat and other farm products would be re sumed on the former scale. Manu facturers of every description would no longer engage in a mf re hand-to-x,noU',b production, but would manu " facture for the requirements of the c jming ye r. This would give work to thoso now in distress, and would enable I tboring peoile themselves to buy what they are now doing with out, under the harsh compulsion of i overty. Th v commerce between forty -five Sate would be resumed ; railroads would be taken out of the h a nrl 9 nf recei vers, because they could agan earn interest on their debts and expenses and something more. The occupation of the panic - maker would be gone. With free coinage would come a President and secretary of the treasury who would not spend half their time bawling to the world that their government w bankrupt and compelling to sell her bonds at 20 p-r cent discount from the interest rates of the we Id to en rich favored syndicates for some un fathomable reason. Free coinage t.hfl borrowing: of money in time of peace for the purpose of obtaining gold with which to pay ob ligations not payable in gold. In brief f r e coinage would mean a back seat for syndicates and their of fic'al instrument a back seat for the bears of New York stock market, and for the pawn brokers throughout the fmmtrv. It would mean that money would be more profitable when in vested in business enterprises than when bid away in a napkin to breed upon itself. It would mean fair play among men, and only 100 cents on the dollar in tl e payment of debts. And free coinage js coming unless bribery and corruption arc stronger in the land than the honest exprvS 6iou of the people's will. LO AXDUEnOLD, THE POOR NEGRO. "The man and brother" contingent of the "southern delegate"1 crowd to the Republican national conyention in St Louis are weeping and wailing and gnashing their teeth, metaphori cally speaking. The average Sripio Afrieanu8 expected to have a hog killing tim at this convention. lie expected to handle money of various denominations at home, take iunkf tmar triD . iourueviug o the McKin'ey Mecca and at St. Louis he confidently to "roll 'em high" and tint the town with lurid paint. But all kis hopesjare dashed The colored man was boycotted. Hotel and boarding house keepers came out flat-footed and declined to entertain him as a guest or customer for love or money, and even steanv boats have been denied him. - This turn of affairs is a great disap pointment to the darkey delegate. He expected to sleep on a good bed, drink good liquor,- and be wined. dined and made much of. But he will do well as it is to board at the market and sleep on the bridge. Besides (un like the Sherman-Alger contest) he will be lucky to dispose of his vote once instead of two or three times. There are too many McKinley "shout- disinterested service ' to his party ; nvp.rv delecrAte in St. Louts would laugh at that idea. Mot the ambition to control Federat patronage in Ohio; Hanna has nianifeted too much readiness to trade off everything in Ohio to the faction locally opposed to McKinley. Not the hope of obtain ing some great office for himself; a fmrt.innnl twirt of the enerev he has expended in behalf of McKinley would have hoisted llanna himself almost any elevation long ago Atpn rt want ?

The people have been : forced to the 'conclusion that he has a masterful character and that he recognizes no such word as fail in his dictionary. ' He has de clared Piatt, of New York, "a mere baby in politics" and seems to care nothing for tne opinions of the erst while Republican leaders. He has taken a very ordinary man, who represents but one idea, high tariff, and that one which has been retired by the people and made him the choice of the great majority of his party for the highest office in its gift. Hanaa is the creator, McKin ley the creature. Of Hanna 1 the New York Sun eavs: . As the personal characteristics of Mr. Hanna become better known, to the people, wonder increases- that he should be giving himself so much trouble to procure the nomination of Major McKinley for President of the JIM OKI IO liATE. The following is a record of the ac tion of Democratic State conventions on the money question to date, as kept by the-Charlotte News. .The vote of each State in the nation a convention is given: For Against, Silver Sliver, 2 34 8 8 District of Columbia.

Unless we count New Jersey , and Maryland (neither of which ariu any sense reliable) thero is not a trustworthy Domoerutic State iu the list wh ch lias declan d against siU'er. An analysis of this table clearly demon strates that the hope and salvation of tbo Dtmocratic party lie in silvtr, and that anything except an une quivocal and unambiguous declara tion in favor of the white metal would bo suicidal to Democratic 1)0 : t. w s f.f r )l T, rftfr all, United States Glance for an instant at this re markable citizen f Cleveland, Ohio Ha ia out in the full sunlight now, and is about as well understood as if he had been in sight for twenty yeais. There is no more interesting figure before the public; no more profitable subject for contemplation, analysis, and speculation. In comparison, the outlines of Major McKinley are indis tinct, as the latter stands, silent and trembling, in the strong shadow which Hanna's dominating individu ality casts over Canton. The man at St. Louis is the principal and the man in Canton is the agent. That is per fectly well understood by this time, ... l . r tianna win oe principal ana ja.cK.in ley will be agent as long as political and personal relations exist between the two. ; What is it that Mr. Hanna ia trying to accomplish by means of Major McKinley 1 Why is Hanna at this time in politic t . Mark Hanna, of Cleveland, s new type of Boss, and his methods are revolutionary. - He is not a working politician of the order of Piatt or Quay or Clai kson or John C. New. or any of the other masters of their pro fession; with their motives and man ner of performance the American public is well acquainted. Hanna comes suddenly into view, after two years or so of subterranean industry, a mystery a to the impelling force in his own mind, and a startling in novator in his technic as thus far dis nlaved - He is at present in nolitirs for something of no fmaU dimens'ois and importance. " W hat an it be ! The fashion of the new Boss is alto gether different from the accepted and familiar type of the half century past, the period of what it is common to call politics. For the first time m the history of the country the pre liminary canvass" of a candidate for nomination has been conducted on he wholesale principles, and with the quiet audacity, the minute appre ciation of details, and the comprehen sive graap and grip,. which business men of the nrst calibre devote to the promotion f speculative enterprise of the first magnitude. The intel-. lectual perfection of the plan, the practical excellence of the mechan ism, are attested in a sfriking way by the position which the chief promo ter occupies today in the Convention at St. Louis. Hanna had thought it all out long ago. He has shown that he posseses the creative imagination which conceives distinctly a situa tion far in the future, and then works up to that for ordained situation by degrees and finally : realizes it Throughout all the adages between imagination and real s vtion he has displayed the characteristic qualities of the business promr t m. rather than inn or tne pracxicu politician, as previously understood. He has kept himself in the dark until it was al most time for the clock to strike. He has been as smooth as olive oil and as stiff as Plymouth Rock. He is a manager of men, a manipulator of events, such as you more fre quently encounter in the back offices of the headquarters or nnancial and commercial activity, than at diatrfct primaries or in tne convention hails There is no color or pretense of states manship m his efforts; he seems ut terly indifferent- to politieal prin ciples, and color blind to policies ex cept as they figure as counters in his game. He can b extremely plausible and innocently deferential m his inter course with others, or can flame out on proper occasion m an outburst of well studied indignation. He is by turns a bluffer, a compro miser, a conciliator, and an immova ble tyrant. There has been no weak nees in his position with reference to the straddle on the money question It required crude courage to stand up for the straddle m he has stood, and to resist the pressure of honest opinion demanding from all sides a definite and intelligib'e utterance on the greatest quest'on of the time. Ue has the gall to face a howling mob, and the pliancy to surrender to a corporal's guard, according to ex pediency and the circumstances of the moment. - -Such men do not enter and revolu tionize nation! polities for nothing. wow, what is Mark lianna after? Not the sentimental gratification of procuring for an - old personal mend the honor of an election as Chief Magistrate; we look to natures somewhat different from Mark Han na'a for susceptibilitif of that sort Not the hope of recovering from Ma jor McKinle3 the mncy he has lent him in the past. 'Hiat may have leen paid for aught we know; the nmo'ir.t rt f -.-:e H too f"!I to Ftir OCR OPPORTUNITY1. - It is one of the favorite arguments of the silver opponents that this country by committing itself to an independent free silver policy would nlafifi itself at a disadvantage in its monetary transactions with Europe and that, as a further result of thi disadvantage, the consummation o intecnational bimetallism would be delayed indefinitely. The Review believes that the United &caw js abundantly able to re-establish . bis metallism. Not only do . we think this country able to restore the equi librium of the" precious metals a money at home, but we think its in itial action in that direction would ' 1 l 4-Via eive a 'World wiae uipuibw w wic cause of bimetallism and bring abqut the much deeded universal monetary reform. Internationaf" bimetallism will never be accomplished through the agreement of an international conference and the action of the United States in the premises is the only practical step towards that re sult. With this country to blaze the pathway for silver its recognition as money universally would - be has tened. Henry Cernushi, one of the leading European economists, thinks such a step would inure to the bene fit of the United States and says: ? The present -monetary policy of the United States is consequently very advantageous to the interests of England, a goia -jnonome mmv wuu try, but it is utterly ruinous as re gards the foreign financial relations of the United States, and especially for its native producers. This is why, inasmuch as Eng land's attitude presents the realiza tion of international bimetallism, and condemns one-half of the world to gold-monometallism, and the other half to silver-monometallism, ; I would not hesitate, were I a citizen of the United States, to become, I, Cernua chi, the father of international bimetallism,-as I am e verywhere called a. silver monometallist. "From a theoretical point of view, the free coinage of silver at 16 to X re-established by the United States without the concurrence of Europe, would be a vicious solution, but it would nevertheless be a step in : the direction of international bimetal lism; for, under the regime of che new standard, the productive power of the United States would receive so enormous an impulse, and this de velopment would have such a disas twins flfTftct unon the economic and financial interests of England and the other European countries now gov erned by the gold standard, that it may be confidently predicted in ad va ce that the course of events' would force the adoption of inter national bimetallism as the only true solution even npon those who today deny the possiibility and efficacy of it." . r WILLIAM M'KIXLET.

The preamble of the platform addresses itself to the "awakened intelligence, experience and con science' of the country after "reap ing tbe bitter fruits of four years ot Democratic control." It scores the Democratic party for its record 'un paralled for in capacity, dishonor, disfavor.': . Jttenewa ana empuacsuico allegiance to the policy of protection as "the bulwark of American indus trial independence and the founda tion of American development r and prosperity. Denounces the present Democratic tariff as sectional, parti san, one-sided ; declares for liberal reciprocity and just relations; ; says the repeal of the reciprocity arrange ment was a national calamity. "Dem ocratic rule has ruthlessly struck down both reciprocity, and protec tion and both must be reestablished," Mentions sugar and wool as instances of the un justness of the Democratic policy. The Cubans plank '-demands that the armed, force of the United States shall be promptly mterposed to restore peace on the Island, hold ing it to be necessary to the people of Cuba to achieve political independence.- Pledges sympathy for the struggle against the corrupt and bar barious Spanish monarchy. The Monroe doctrine is endorsed. Exten sion of the civil service is favored ; use of public money for sectarian- pur poses opposed. Condemns the pres ent administration" policy on pen sions; advocates the building of the Nicaragua canal by the Government, and favors restricted immigration. FOR THE GOLD STASPARP.

C, June 17.--President Cleveland yesterday made the following reply to a representa tive of the New York Herald, who asked of the President a statement concerning the Democratic situation. Mr. Cleveland said: , "I have made no figures as to the probable action of delegates already chosen or to be chosen to the Demo ctatic National Convention; but I re fuse to believe that when the time ar rives for deliberate action there will be engrafted upon our Democratic rrreed a demand for the free, un limited, and independent coinage of silver. I cannot believe this, because the Democratic party Js neither un patriotic or foolish, and because , it seems so clear to xne that such a course will inflict a very great in jury upon every interest in our coun try, which it has been the mission of Democracy to advance, and will re sult in lasting disaster to our party organization, -' . ' : . v , - : ' " There is little hope that, as a means of success, this free silver proposition, after its thorough dis cussion during a political cam paign, will attract a majority of the votes of the country. " mu8t J panacea for tbeir ills will be dis pelled before the time comes for them to cast their ballots, which will express their sober, second thought. The adoption by the Democracy of this proposition would, I believe, give to our opponents an advantage, both in the present and in the future, which they do not deserve. THE OOUTRT'S GOOD. "My attachment to true Democracy is so strong that I consider its success as identical with tbe promotion of the country's good. This ought suf ficiently to account for myt anxiety that no mistake be made at our party convention.. In my opinion, no effort should be ispared to secure such ac tion of tbe delegates as wui avert party demoralization. It is a place for consultation and comparison of views, and those Democrats who be lieve in the cause of sound money should there be heard, and be con stantly inevidence. " Acause worth fighting for is worth fishtins for to the end. If sound money Democrats suppose there is danger of a mistake being made, such daneer snouid stimulate their activ ity in averting it, instead of creating discouragement. : "I am very far from arrogating to myself a controlling influence upon the policy of my party: but, as an unflinching Democrat, who has been honored by his party, and who de sires nereaiter no greater political privilege than to fill the place of pri vate in its ranks, I hope I may not be blamed for saying this much at this ime, in the interest, as it seems to me, of the grand bid organization, so rich in honorable traditions, so justly proud of its achievements, and always so undaunted and brave in its battles for the people's welfare." at prices never Greensboro. before this week known in Having had one of the most successful Spring seasons ever experienced since my residence in Greensboro,' it became necesiary to make a recoad trip to the North.
