So the country is really indebtel to the Democrats who huve been on guard for the people not only for preventing the contraction of the currency but for the $374,000,000 of greenbacks which were preserved from the lire or the mascerating machine, for the $450,000,000 of -silver which has bwn coined since 1877, and for the of Treasury which would not be in circulation if the Republicans had not been driven to some such men mire to offset the repeal of the Bland act. This record ought to settle the idiotic twaddle about the Democratic party being owned and controlled in its financial policies by Wall street. EXUM'S DUPLICITY EXPOSED.

Oold.boro Headlight. "I would rather prefer negro rule or anything to the rule we have" bad heretofore." These are the exact words uttered in my presence by Dr. Wy-att Patrick Exum, of this county, Third party nominee for Gov. ernor, and will be vouched for at any time by Messrs. M.

J. Best and C- Riven bank, of this city, Mr. James M. Olliver, of Johnston coHnty (Princeton O) and Mr. G.

W.Pegram, of Petersburg, "who were standing on Thursday afternoon," August 25, 1892, in front of the grocerydo-partment of Messrs, Best Thompson, on east -Walnut street, listening to the usual "sidewalk of Dr. Exum. In company with Mr. Riven-bank, I was reviewing in the presence ol Dr. Exum, the gnod done in this State under the past and present Democratic administration and the danger that threatened us in the event of Ffarrison's election, which-on-doubtedly means a force bill and negro supremacy, whan the above response was made by the Weaverite candidate.

It is impossible on his part to deny a single word as I wrote it down as soon as spoken and read it to Dr. Exum in the presence of the above named four gentleman, telling him in the meantime that POLITICAL POINTS The negroes speak of putting up a ticket of their owu in Yadkin county. The result, of the Democratic primaries in South Carolina gives the State to Tillman for two years more by a majority of 15,000. The Conserve tives.how-ever, will probably elect 5 out of 7 Congressman. Harrison is costing this country a round hundred million dollars more than Arthur cost it.

If we must have Republicans, give us a better quality for less money. We cannot afford to pay McKinley prices for. such shoddy goods.

Wllmmgtoa Star. The advocates of the Third party in the South justify their course in fighting the Democrat ic party on the alleged ground that in its financial policy it is dominated by Wall street. They swear by all that is good that they will never vote for Cleveland or any other man who is opposed to the free and unlimited coinage of silver. They have a perfect right to fight the Democratic party if they feel that way inclined, or not to vote tor Cleveland if they feel that way inclin ed, for this is a free country and men wbo are old enough to vote have the legal right to vote with any party they choose and against any man they choose, but "in deserting one party to work jr and with another, they ought to be pretty sure they are not running the risk of playing toe fool or worse before they do it. Especially should they debate the matter with themselves if they undertake to organize an insurrection, against the party which they de sert, as some of the Third party luminaries in the South who have deserted the Democratic party are trying to do.

Tliey anathematize Cleveland because, forsooth, be doesn't fa vor the free and unlimited coinage of silver, unless: upon conditions that will preserve, the coin metais at par, ana yet tney win contribute to the election of Harrison Who is not only oppos ed free coinage but represents and is1 the standard bearer of a party which has been guilty ofi all tue nnauciai sins oi the age. The party which contracted the currency after the war in the interest of the money power. which demonetize silver: in the interest of the same power, Which opposed, in the interest act by which silver was remouet-ized and $450,000,000 of new silver coins put into circulation, rrnicii repealed the Bland act and stopped the coinage of sil ver, And which will, if it gets into power again, repeal the Sherman act and stop the issue of the the treasury notes now put into circulation at the rate of a year in payment of the silver bought by the Treasury." It would stop the purchase of silver by the Treasury and the issuing of these Treasury notes without providing any substi- tute.u:.; i 'X- V.v These Third party leaders inow this very well, and they inoir, too, that as. between the Democratic and the Republican parties the Democratic party favors the silver dollar, and a full volume of currency, while the Re publican party favors neither. Just, after the when the government began to, resume specie payment, the policy adopted was to destroy the thus withdrawing them permanently from and curtailing the currency to that extent.

Democratic opposition stopped this, and $374,000,000 of those green backs still remain iu circulation which would have been destroyed if the policy, adopted had been adhered to. 1 5 If the Bland act had not been been passed over the veto of President Hayes, we would be minus the $450,000,000 of silver coins which have been coined and out into circulation between 1877 aud 1890, when the Repub licans stopped the free coinage of silver, aud passed the SberT man silver bullion act as a sub stitute. i Thus, through the Instrument talityof the Democratic party, the people have in circulation $024,000,000 that would not be iu circulation nor in existence if the Republican policy had been pursued. Tho total amount of. money now in circulation is about If the Repulilicuu j.uliry of contraction i of silver had prevnilej and l.a.1 1 i pursued we would 29th and at Salisbury, Septem ber autn.

The Sentinel prints today brief biographical sketches of them. i. HON. w. OWEN.

William Stanley Owen was born at Yadkin College in 1855, and spent bis boyhood on a farm. He was educated, at the college there and after graduating he went to Greensboro and studied law for a year with Dick Dil-lard."

Mr. Owen believes in the masses and is opposed to class legislation. He is firm, straightforward, and is certain to make an energetic canvass. HON. B.

JONES. Erastus B. Jones was born on a farm at Bethania on the 21st day of August, 1852. His boy-bood was spent on this farm nine miles from Winston until he was 21 years of age when he went to get his education at Wake For-est, from which college he grad uated in 1878. He then studied Taw with Judge Wilson of this and later with Dick JPil- hard, at Ureensooro.

About an hour after this oc currence Dr. Exum was standing at the hotel corner talking with a gentleman. Tbinkingit another political discussion I walk ed up and joined the conversa tion, when jl louno it was an about cotton. The gent.eman wanted to buy Dr.

Exum's cot' ton, but owing to the low price offered, the latter refused to sell it. Just as I was about to leave and turn the corner, Dr. Exum put his right arm around my shoulder and we walked, into East Walnut street, stopping nearly in fron of Hill's drug store. Here Dr. Exum urged me to suppress the sentence he uttered about negro rule, telling me that if I would consent to it and turn my paper in favor of the People's party, it wovld be the making of me, as he would guarantee subscribers.

I want to see this club used in the contest against the Democratic party." The Northern Republicans have been using "this club" since the war, but a Spanish proverb says that chickens go home to roost. In Alabama the negroes voted the Democratic ticket, because they are getting tired of being used to advance others without being benefitted themselves. It is probable tbat a great many negroes will vote in the fut ure with 'he Democratic party.know, ing that when in trouble they go to Democrats for relief. State Chronicle.

The Third party-is a child of the Republican party and they feel it their duty to nourish and care for the child to whom they gave birth. The Third party men are staying at home and will not go out to hear Bunn and Abell.
