Bis Defenoe of Senator JarTia Wllaalas; ton Waldoa Transaction and Bis Vmat Mall Vota Reviewed -The Senator Don hie Character avs "YTaltlne; Btateaaau" and Ksllroad Attorney Senator Vi Was a Supporter of the Faat Mall Ap propriation. To the Editor of the Observer: My papers, for several days, failed to reach me, and hence the communication in your istue of Auguit 5, s'gncd "Bo hemian, Jr.." has just come to my notice This last effort of thst precocious youth is so irrelevant to the main question of this long drawn controversy that I would take no heed .of it but for the palpable attempt of the "slave," in imitation of the "master," to avoid the necessity of answering tbe charges preferred against the latter, wnen mis i avenue aspirant for literary fame and senatorial protec tion was about to make his debut, no doubt it was embarrassing to him to be without a name. Yet, urgent as were his necessities, I submit that he was not justified in committing larceny and blackmail. Had he refrained from an aspersion on my literary virtue and rec titude, and had sought instead to have conserved the eternal fitness of things, he would have done so well to have adopted the name "Cuckoo." He at tempts to discredit the arraignment of "Governor Carr's.Senator" by innuendo, in true "cuckoo" style, when he alluded to my "fishing expedition" among the attorneys around the capital. "1 thank thee, Jew, for that word." It was indeed a "fishy'" transaction, engaged in by a "fishy" politician, that I was investigat ing, and that is now being defended by fishy" methods. By the way, speaking of "attorneys for contingent fees," the only testimony submitted by me from an attorney was that of Attorney (?) Jarvifl, and there was nothing "contingent" about bis "reasonable compensation. save, perhaps, the amount He was sure of enough to buy a good farm, and if he had succeeded in cheating the public treas ury of that $119,000.for which hefougbt so earnestly, "as a citizen" and a patriot. ne no doubt would have received enough "reasonable compensation" in addition to that to have bought a nice block of that juicy railroad stock, the cruel op pression of which gave him bo much con' cern. "(Juckoo, true to the character istics of his namesake and in servile imi tation of his master, insists on indicting Governor Carr, Attorney General Os borne and Treasurer Tate, as well as the General Assembly of North Carolina, along with our Governor-made Senator, for tii corporation grab of the public money. Those honorable and distinguished gentlemen need no defense from me, nor any one, and the cowardly attempt to screen the real culprit behind their fair names and fame will prove a boomerang to the conspirators, the boss and the "cuckoo," unless I over-rate the inteiligeQce and the manhood of North Carolina's sons. Iu brief, tbe sit nation was this: Those men to whom the honor and weal of North Carolina were entrns'ed, found themselves confronted with endless litigation, or compromise, annoying and perplexing alternatives by which "Statesman" Jarvia sought an ad vantage for his corporate client. Those gentlemen worked ror the best interest of the State. Mr. Jarvis, "as a citizen" and a "visiting statesman," dtmandedthe 'pound of ilesb, like Hhylock, although he had not so good an excuse as that cruel Jew, for it was not "so nominated in the bond" which he held. Bat I will not pursue this line further unless the base, or the "Cuckoo" can be nduced to meet the issue, and stick to the question. Then I will underake to meet srgamect with argument, inquiry with Etatements and denial with proofs It may satisfy "Cuckoo" to believe that the candid, frank and manly utterances f Senator Jarvis are saflici'jnt for his friends, and that means the people of North Carolina." He is usurping a Popu'iistic prerogative when he assumes to tpoak fjt "the people, in the first place, and there are not many people in North Carolina, I imagaine, who are willing to support a man for high office who is nnder the charge of wroDg-doiag, in the second place. No doubt tnere are ome who share the sentiment ol tee gen tleman in South Carolina who said he and his friends would v:te for Czar Till man if "he was caught Bteaiing a hog,' bat their number is net great It is true that you can add to this unsavory crowd a better element composed of those who are so blind that they will refuse to see, and for various reasons do no, want to know, the truth. Yet, when all are mar shaled under the banner of the corpora tion attorney, he will have a minority, I think. "Cuckoo" takes me up on my state ment that the f 196,000 of "fast mail" fame was a contract price. The fact is that I was right The Postmaster Genera! requires the railroad company ta agree to perform certain and specified extraor dinary services If the company com plies it is raid, and if it fails it forfeits the payment to the extent of the failure The act that appropriates that money, places it absolutely at tte disposal of the I'ostmatter General, irovideil , that he use only such part as he deems necessary for the good of the service. Both Mr Wanamaker and Mr Vilas used that money and if they said, as "Cuckoo" al leges, that it was a useless expenditure ot pnblic funds, they are guilty, it seems t j me, of either duplicity or dishonesty, or both. His witness, Senator Blackburn, is rather an unfortunate one. That dis tinguished Senator had an amendment.to the tame bill under discuisioo, carrying $100,0X0 for a fast mail to his country, cut it was demonstrated to the Senate that it was not needed, and hence his schrme was defeated Then he voted against the one providing for a needed service southward. However, none of "Cuckoo's" illustrious array of witnesses represents North Carolina; none of them was appointed by Governor Carr, and none of them, so far as is known, ever received any compensation, "reasonable" or otherwise, from the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad Company. See? While it is immaterial as to what you call the price paid for a fat t mail service, it is de sirable always to be accurate. Every one that knows anything knows that the word "subsidy" has two distinct uses and meanings, one a goad one, the other a bad one The good sense implies co-operation, help. The bad implies a gratuity to fa voritism. Where value is received and L adequate service rendered for a given amount, no honest person can call it a "subsidy" in the bad sense of that word. This is the whole thing briefly stated. "Cuckoo" says that the Atlantic Coast Line did not ' slow up" when it lost the appropriation. Perhaps not, but It iuds. one train less now, and the North Caro Una point along that line receive New York mail from five to twelve hours later than formerly. Just the same. It is also true that the Postmaster uenerai had a statement from the Piedmont Air Line people that they could not afford to ren der the present service unless they re ceived adequate additional pay. As to the ''Wild Dutchman"' of the Sea board Air Line, it would be safe to say that it is run at a loss and solely as an advertisement of a new and delightful route. As to whether North Carolinians ad j scent to the superb South ern Railway system receive sufficient re turns for the amount paid br the general government for the magnificent service rendered by that hustling corporation, or not, 4 am willing to leave to them to de cide. . Just here I want to thank "Cuckoo" for the figures, so carefully and abundantly copied into his la:t comma nication, relative to the regular compen sation of railroads for carrying the mails. Net that I needed them, since I have the same book, doubtless, from which be copied them; but because they added strength and weight 1 3 his otherwise very gaseous matter. Bo many references have teen made by Senator Jatvia and his "Cuckoo" to my hostile relations to Senator Vance, that I Jfeel it Incumbent on me to allude to them. , Jn the grit plwe, X HD to lay to those who have been weak enough to be influenced br such refemmeea. that Rene, tor Vance was always favorable to an ap appropriation for fast mail service to . -w-r - . the South, although it did not help his particular section of the State at that time. He did not regard it as a "ntelaea expenditure" of the public funds, as the self-confessed usurper of his toga pre tends to. in tne second place, l want to say that I have no word of apology nor any feeling of regret for anything I ever said about that illustrious man I made only honest criticisms of his public acts ana at no tune, personally, neia any reel ing for him other than affection. I de plore the fact of his name having been used in this controversy in the irreverent way that it has, and none but ghouls and cowards will invade the sanctity of tbe grave for selfih and base purposes. Before concluding. I wish to ear for the benefit of "Cuckoo." who presumes to advise me as to the handling of. my Faber," that I shall in the future, as in the past exercise my right to criticize fairly and honestly the public acts of ail puonc men, l wm do so without fear, always holding myself respon sible for my utterances to those men or their duly authorized "Cue kocs I have criticized a public act or senator jams and have given my reasons for doing so. If they are not sumcient l can furnish additional ones. I. for one, am opposed to North Caro lina joining the list of Pennsylvania. Ohio, Maryland and other States by being represented in our highest legislative oody by a man tainted with scandal and under the suspicion, well founded, of being subject to corporate influence. Except along the line suggested already in this article, mis closes the contro troversy, so far as I am concerned, in the columns of any newspaper. To those who have been patient enough to follow me through it, I am grateful. Of those newspapers that published but one side, it can alone be thought by any fair- minded man that they are a dishonor to North Carolina Journalism. HOHKMIAN. Norfolk, Va., Aug. 13. THB TKHNKSSKB DEMOCRATS. Governor Turney to be Ke Nominated To- Iay A Compromise Bllrer Plank. Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 14. The Democratic State convention will meet here to-morrow to nominate a candidate for Governor. There is no opposition to the re-nomination of Governor Peter Turney, which will doubtless bo madebv acclamation. There is much division among Tennessee Democrats on the sil ver question, but the disposition among the delegetes who have so far arrived ia towards compromise rather than conten tion. This makes it probable that the financial plank in the platform will de clare for the coinage of both gold and liver at such a ratio aB will preserve the parity of the two metals, or some other indefinite phrase that both factions can claim as an expression of their views. The Democratic majority in the recent Supreme Court judges election over the Republicans and Populists' fusion was only about 10,000 and the Republicans claim that they could have won if their forces had been thoroughly aroused. They will make a determined effort to elect tho Popnli&t nominee for Governor lti .November and this state of affairs has wakened the Dtmocrsts to the necessity f preserving party harmony.

It has been discovered at Sioux City, Iowa, that a firm has been slaughtering cheap ranch horses, the flesh of which is made into "dried beef." The product is all shipped to Jersey City. The pro prietors say they have converted 1,100 horses into "dried beef." They buy the horses for less money on the ranges than cattle can be had for.

FINANCIAL AMD COHHIKCI1U Tbe Action of Congress on tbe Tariff Had It Effect on Liverpool. Special by Private Wire to Harrison Watts. New Yohk. Aug-. 14. The action in Con gress yesterday on the tariff evidently had it effect in Liverpool, although the advance on this side yesterday helped the better feeling there. How far commercial conditions in this oountry and abroad will be affected by the settlement of the tariff question, as it is now practically settled. Inasmuch as the President will doubtless sign tbe bill, can only bo deter mined in the next few weeks, because if In dustrial enterprise are to derive any benefit therefrom it will take some time for them to get in shape to give evidenoe of this to tbe country generally. In the meantime an un dercurrent of feeling a exhibited on tbe stock exchange, which Is perhaps more nearly the pulse of trade than any of the exchanges, is decidedly of a more bopefnl character and. In fact, tbe dry good trade ha been gradu ally getting better for the last ten day. Reports from the crops are not altogether as favorable a they have been, especially from the Atlantic State Our advice to-day from Greenville, S. C, speak of damage from excessive rains last week. The movement of the new crop is also not as heavy as expected. This is not surprising in view or tne depressed markets with early shipments, and we ex pressed a few days ago a doubt a to whether the movement would be liberal in view of these conditions. Liverpool improved 3 points arter having been l higher, boot sale were 10,000. The improvement here was 3, after having been 6 higher. AlWOOD. Viour Si Co.
