In referring to the public wl iligations of South Carolina Issue for Vi ao filue Itidge Road subscription for gr ie new State Capitol, in those golden sp tys of old South Carolina, when the ,ate credit was high in London, we w( 3d 6 per cent. the lowest rate then io1 nilable. During the Hampton debt in ttleient again we find 6 per cent. set ie itterest rate 1i The very small relative debt of the Ki tate 1876-110 caused the Brown bon(s )a > command a premium, and suggest- Di I to the then State aut horites the re- w, inding of the $400,000 falling due in Ti 189 at a lower rate than 6 per cent. be 'he wiiest members of the finance Dinmittee advocated 5 per cent. for co ii, new loan, but a majority adopted th bie 4* per cent. figures. Now with m 'hat, result? It was before the farm- in rs' movement began; It was in a inor- ro il condition of State affirs; it was N i easy financial times. The loan th ragged--it was not promptly taken. ad it is a notorious fact that but for th ic a:,ive co-operation of banks and on ankers to save the State from failure an -this small sum of $400,000 would th ave not been placed. en There is such a thing as color blind ess in finance, and this must have tit ten the condition, when in face of hi fis plain warning '6,000,(Xu) of deht it: ,as sought to be refunded a', .1 per wj Bnt. but that is just what has been one. sp 'lhe attenipt to carry out this arbi ray law has substaitialy failed, and gr tilure ought to have been expected at in Ius very low rate. These are the a oints or view trom which to regard "1 'ie State debt. th l itst. It is largely a home debt, that ce , it is owned to the extent of t,nreu- In urths by the people of South Caro- di na, in trust estate of all classes and sv inds, and has been the preference of is I small investor.s. Now then, these lit wners of four and a half millions of in is debt held at home cannot afford to nt nd the State the money at .1 per cent. hen money all around is worth from eu per cent. to 10 per cent. Va Second. When you go to the money se mtres of the country and offer a 4 per it mt. loan, then you unite investiga. p on ir.to past debt matters, and from ,ombard and Wall Streets emerge bit- th er complaints of Injustice to former cc olders of State securites, and unlor ti, imately there is truth in these comn laints. 01 Now, the Tlillmaii Governlinenit is not at iany way responlsible for thetse ant e- -t edent, 'ond(itions, or for the "41 per w L'nt." lHetundiung Act. Nothing they th ini say or (d0 will alter many conudi- t ens ait homne, or alter thme awkward thi ict., for instance, that bonids now in fir .

Then lid South, lie said, was solid no lo-n r. TJhie whites, who have always to ted the D)emocratic ticket, will veryta rgely vote the P'eople's party ticket t is fall. The speaker saild he honestly fi leved that with a free ballot and an Ir count a majority of the whites ini ery Southern State would this fall R St their votes for the l'eop)le' ticket. uis is this way to get a free ballot andt fair count, for there has be'en intimi- b tion and 'nfair woQrk. But this land die to the People's party, the speaker f titendted, is the only thing which can I sure a free ballot. Th'le Riepublican pm rty has controlled the Federal Gov- a unent ever since the war with the luu DepIion or four years andl has neverfo aceeded in remedying the matter. .twa uld not be remedied irom the out- ery e.

Equally untenable Is the claim that Republican protection is in the inter est of labor. The remainder of Stevenson's speech was devoted to the force bill. On this subject he said: This bill in every line and paragraph breathes distrust of the people. It is totally destructive of lo cal self-government. It would be dif ficult to find on any page of our history a more daring attempt to weaken the power of the people and to centralize all power in the Federal government. No single oflicer entrusted with its execution is elected by the people. From the Judge who makes the ap pointment of the chief supervisors to the lowest deputy inarshal, entrusted t with its execution, all receive their ap pointment under the Federal authori ty. The people, the source of all polit ical power under our Constitution, have no voice,in the selection of those who, tinder the monstrous provisions of thio bill, can sport at will with their dearest rights. This legislation, my fellow cit izens, is devised in a spirit of hate. Can it be possiblo that the American people I will consent to the enactment of a law so hostile to the spirit of our Institu- a tions, legislation which savors only of r vengeance and the successful operation of which would involve the expendi ture of millions of dollars and bring in its train untold horrors? Can it be that the hmnRds are now to be turned back on the dials and the evils through which we have safely passt-d again be come a living reality ? Since my nomination I have be en in eight Southern anid :-,outhwesteru States and have talked with nen of all t classes and conditions there. I find a general and growing apprehension of the evils which it Is believed would re- I suilt I rmin the passage of the Lodge bill or similar threatened legislation. I find the industries istablished by Northern capital during Clevelan's allministration in a languishing condi tion; that the imnigrat.on of labor and capital invited to those States by their then peaceful cwndit ion has, in a large measure, ceased. The enactnent of the threatened force lill into law would undoubtedly retard the growth of the States at which it is ained, would ex citein i)any communities racet rouoles and invite retalliatory legislation, which would disturb property valies and discontAtine and (es roy the valie of the Northern investients And its rt lex action upon the North annd the. Northwestern state wouh result in the conseqIteit loss of coininercial and trade relatioua wit h the vast territory now be coming tributary to th-ir wealth and II osper ity. I say not Iing now of iiherent vice, of the A ierican aid un-i evolutionary siirit involved in the Lodge bill, which wtas pronouned by a Ieptiblicaa Sena tor "the most ifaimois tnat ever cross ed I ie t hireshold of the Senate." I ap peal to the instinct of self interest and to Ihe 31,n1io of cominon justice in the A Aerican people. The era of good feel ing and renewed commercial relations cominiencing with the election of Mr. Cleveland in 188.1 should not be Inter rtipted by the inauguration of a policy whicn tends to destroy the popular rep i rerentation and purity of local self governneiit, which furnishes an in strument to discredited Federal power to perpetuate itself, Which seeks to keep alive sectional jealousies and strife, which threatens Import ant cnm mfercial interests, which oifers no excuseo r pal liaetion for its existence except the per petuation in power of a political party' whtich has lost public contidtence.
