the carolina watchman fourth series salisbury n c thubsday august 17 1893 washington letteb prom our regular eorresiwndeiit pre>idetit cleveland's message todou gn-ss iiks been as closely studied as any similar document ever w.-w liy member of congress and it is evident that it is oi;:g to be a powerful factor in the financial legislation of the atwsion it apparently opposes the ideas of many democrats in both the house and sen itte just as his celebrated tariff ullage k887 did but honest and conscieu s belief is conspicuous in every heu e of it and trie opposition to wn at are known as silver democrats is more apparent than real f:>r they all agree with tk president's r«»cotumeu datian for the repeal of the silver pur chasing clause of the sherman law only differing as to what shall be sub stituted the message recommend the repeal and leaves the question of a ub>titute to the wisdom of congress and nine-tenths of the democrat are certain that the recommendation u to repeal will be followed and that othei financial legislation which will be equally satisfactory to the silver deni ocr.its and to president cleveland will be agreed upon by the democrats in both house and senate and that th persistent efforts of the republicans to split the democratic party on the sil ver question will fail acting on the maxim quoted in the president's message — lie gives twic who gives quickly 1 — the democrats in the house both silver men and anti silver men are trying to reach an agreement to take up and decide the silver question without waiting for the appoint tut lit of committees and the adoption of rules it will be e.isy to take ihe matter up without an agree merit only a maj.rity vote being re quired but if an agreement can b reachi'd upon just what is to be voted upon and liow much nine ii i b giv lmi to ducu-sr.'li much tune will in saved 1 liit wolucl necessarily l>e wa.»t«r if no agreement is m do to s.iy naili ng of the possibility of endles-i tilli timj siiver men h,'v in caucus deci ih-d to vote fur the repeal of the pur chasing clause of the sherman law i the bill for its repeal provides for tin free coinage of silver on such a ratit us will provide and maintain the pnri tv between goid and silver the fact that no particular r.itio is mentioned i significant it means that the caucus nf sil er democrats did not believe i possible to succeed in maintaining ch present ratio of ki to 1 and that they are willii.g to increase the ratio it is now claimed that a careful poll he house made this week shows a ority of 35 in favor or the repeal oi tlie purchasing clause of tha sherman law the senate is more doubtful and it is much mure difficult to ascertain how senators whose positions are not dearly defined will vote but strong rff rts hie now being made to bring liie democratic senators tog-ther and the indications point to success a caucus of democratic senators this week appointed a committee of live — gorman ransom gray vorhees and blackburn — to consider and report a plan with that end in vitw ihe he publicans unintentionally of course added largely to the probabilities of united democratic action m the sen ate by thwr attempts to make political capital which were promptly and pro perly rebuked by senator gorman eut vt the present financial situation the senate committee on finance of which seuntor vorhees is chairman held its first meeting yesterday the committee did not lack for business either as more than a score of finan cial bills which have been introduced in the senate have been referred to that committee a uuaj irity of this committee are bi-metalistn but some of the most prominent of then includ ing the chairman have declared their belief of the viciousnem of the sher man law aud their willingness tu y jte for its unconditional repeal the sen ate is nnturally deliberate in all its ac tions so it will not be surprising if the house takes up the silver question before this committee reports a bill to the senate the resolution of sena tor l'dge of force bill fame directing the committee to report a bill for the repeal of the sherman law and provi ding that a vote should be taken there upon on the 221 of this m,qnth vu o.uly a bit of republicau buncombe aud the adoption of this resolution would have surprised no one more than its author t e bttterot pill in the president's i*«i'ge for the republicans to swal low was the plain statement that lie rxpected conjjres to obey the will f the people aud proceed to reform uae iniquitous tariff as soon as the finance have lieen looked after because the troublt-s brought up«>n the country by republican financial legislation bava o couspicuou>iy forced themselves upon public attention of late republicans have allowed themselves to believe that the mckinh-y law v s to be un ' disturlnsl by ttux&mgres they know better now and the knowledge does'ut please them th»pi — tha pers:d*lta lfniwgi < . uarlott r observer the message of president cleveland submitted to the extraordinary session ! of congress yesterday and published in this paper is in a certain sense a disappointment the piesideut was expected to ring loud and clear on the repeal uf the silver purchase act and indeed be gives sufficient reasons why it should be speedily blotted out but the president is disappointing in his fail ure to tell the country after the repeal what he evidently does not contemplate that congress oh ill repeal the sher man law and stop with that for in his concluding paragrapli he recommends in addition to this other legislative action which will 4 put beyoncj all doubt or mistake the intention of the government to till its pecuniary obli gations in uiouey universally recog nized by all civilized countries tli's sentence might in its latter clauses be construed as a declaration in favor of gold mono-met hsm but the context would forliid this construction even if air cleveland were not already on rec • irj as an endorser of the party's pint form which declares in favor of ji iuetiilimti li is i ot to be supposed lor n mo iieut that the pre-ideut would repeal lie 6i.eriti.ui act aud stop to d«#4u il would b to put the country on a gold lasia at once it id not to b doubled jiat the president would follow the repeal measure which he s>o earnestly insists upon with some other provis ion of law — ther legislative action — which would provide a place for sil ver in the currency of the country nd it is to l>e regretted that he did not in ins mes<;i outline his plan vilmlngtoo mt-sjiengtr the president throws up the sponge in so far as the united states are con cerned single handed they are pow erles he believes in the intrinsic value of money to wliielt the afessen yer refers in another article written before we had glanced over the mes sage he thinks our currency should de fixed by other nation it is so fixed as is apparent from the effect of the british order as to indian silver upon the action of the president in calling the congress together aud u|j on the opinions uf the northern peu ple especially upon wall street he therefore calls upon the congress at once to repeal this awful law that has worked such terrible consequences he warns against a pan icy feeling he mikes uo suggestion as to what i bent to be done alter the killing of the shorinau law but he seems at the very close to give a hint for gold alone as tit american standard of value if that is bis meaning he in not in accord with southern democrats or with bis party a it defined itself at chicago he w not elected aud never would have been elected upon a gold stan dnrd we do not know that we un derstand him fully but if we read him correctly he stands for the gold stan dard only and repudiate silver atlanta c'ousluulloi mr cleveland's message f«vors and endorses the republican policy of re peal and entirely ignores the demo cratic policy if he is right the dem ocratic party is wrong and has been wrong for twenty years if his is right john sherman and his republi can colleague are right and it is emi nently fitting that the r.impant force bill champion aud gold monometalist henry cabot lodfc should as he did omuiue charge of the message iu the s«iuu and more its reference to a committee with instructions the juty of democrats in congress is plain and easy they are not iu n position to ignore the democratic policy put forth in the democratic platform n>ws-ot>server-chrontele mr cleveland's message will be a great disappointment to the masses of the american people and particularly to the masses i the s.utb and we sup pose at the v«t also j»e ca nnot commend either the ftuhstuuee of it or the urgnatent ir k t 1 |,^ ui _ iivntcwi ib it .||« would tir t \^ <(| _ conditional

further action | in this wejire disappointed and the disappointment » the gre.ter because we havyavery high opinion of mr cleveland's capacity of his extraordi mtry powers of his tints intelligence and undoubted patriotism it ttetus to us that it was his duty to have rec ommended some further action in view ot the situation which he alleges the country to be in aefs budget he m akee some suggestions on the fi nancial situation now is the time for everybody to how their charity and their good will let uf all divide out and help one an other the papers all say that there is plenty of money and the banks that have suspended have got plenty of as et aud if confidence could be res'ored ev«-ry thing would become cdm and serene again weil let us all take on confidence and divide out with one another a man told me that he knew of one man in atlanta who had shifted all his money into gold asd had 20 000 of it locked up in a private drawer in one of the banks aud there were lots of men who had from 5,000 to 10,000 locked up in the same way aud they were waiting to see what congress was going to do with silver that is al wrong that gold ought to be turned loose i want a little of it right now let us come to a divide until the trouble is over when the v\ar was over aud everybody was as poor as l z.irus there were a few here nd there who had notes on their neighbors the stay law had prevent ed them from collecting but when i hat law had played out wa poor fel lows who owed a little ante-bellum money were suddenly invited to pay it hid it took us years and years to do it we were sued and pursued my friend l5i!l fort told me that it waa an out ijje and it was all our substance destroyed and now the-e d*l>ts to hang ver us world end and so fort tried to get up a town meeting and kiss resolutions to have a big bonh'ie in the middle of the street and let everybody who had a note or a debt on siny body be called upon to come for vvatd like patriots aud c t the note or debt into the tire and then let us all take a new start in the world 1 thought it was a splendid idea but when we began to agitate it it w.is dis covered that nobody was in favor of it except those who owed the money patriotism is one thing and money is another they are no kin but now it seems to me is a good time for every body to come to a reasonable divide i will divide with any bod who will di vide with me though i am in jim per kin's fix right now jim never had any money to apeak of but he alwny held his head up like a gentleman one day a poor country man who knew jim ami looked up to him took him aside and brgged him for a loan of 3 until harvest jim seemed very much distressed and told the poor fel low that he didn't hare that much in the world then the poor fellow low ered his siyhts and aiked for 3 and jim said he didn't have that much well let me have l said he mid jim said jack i hate to acknowledge it but i'll swear before high heaven i haven't had a dollar in a month no i haven't had a dog-gon'd cent the times are awful hard but if we will all come to a divide nobody will suffer it's no time to be drawing on a man through a bank when the bank wouldn't lend you a

ground floor somewhere but i couldn't fiud it i was willing to take silver but they didn't have it i reckon 1 don't like for anybody to draw on me through a bank what has the bank got to do with a man
