BUTLER TO THE ALLIANCE. THE SENATOR STATES HIS POSITION* ON* THE OCALA DEMANDS. . T IN THE SAME BOAT WITH TILLMAN. The Sub-Treasury * Ik Unconstitutional?Government Ownership of Railroads is Unwise?The Free Coinage of Sliver at 16 to 1, and the Re peal of the 10 per cent. Tax Ih What the Country Need*. Under (lute of May 12, Senator Butler replied to the Alliance questions propounded by Chairman Mitchell. lie begins his letter by quoting the platform of the Alliance in full, nud then states his position as follows: "Taking up the questions of your letter in their order, I beg to say in response to the first, I will discuss any public question the people may desire to have discussed, and as the "finances of the country," are legitimate and proper subjects for discussion, I will discuss them with pleasure and without reserve. I will refer more fully to the last point of your inquiry, whether I will "defend them against the enemies of our (your) order," when I come to discuss the Alliance platform. I don't quite understand, however, whether you mean to ask uio whether I will defend the "fiuancesof the country" against the enemies of your order, or the "finances of the country" as proposed by the Alliance. I assume you meap the latter. Replying to your second question I beg to say that in my political life I have never allowed any caucus or society, or organization to bind my conscience, and shall not do so in the future. Caucuses, or societies or organizations of any kind, which seek to bind the political conscience of any free Americau citizen, are in my judgment, inimical to that freedom of conscience and political action, so essential to the preservation of the republican institutions. I have attended many caucuses of the Democratic party to which I belong; I have never heard the suggestion that any man's conscience or political action i should be bound by them. I will never so far surrender my individual judgment as to be bound by any caucus. I am loyal jto the principles of the Democratic party, and shall maintain that loyalty so long as it-adheres to principles I think conducive to the best interests of the people, not a day longer. I ' have been under the impression that the Farmer's Alliance was not a political organisation. hut an "Industrial Union" for the! protection of the farmers against impositions from other sources. I do not believe in secret political organizations, we had a sad experience some years ago with them. Whatever concerns the political welfare of our people should be open to the fullest, freest, most public discussion. In order to prevent! impositions 011 the people, the light must be turned on from all points of view. I recognize no master in this country except the people. Caucus rule should not be allowed to usurp the rule of the people. I will therefore, say I will pledge my loyalty to the demands of the Alliance, so far as they meet the demands of my judgment, and I cannot hold them above loyalty to party caucus, because I make no pledges to "party caucuses" and deny the right of "party caucuses," or any other caucuses to command pledges from me to surrender my conscience and judgment to its dictation. Coming now to the demands, permit me to say, by way of preface, that there seems to be a very grave misapprehension in the minds of some people as to the power of a caucus over its members. I have attended Democratic caucuses since I have been in the senate, "but nobody ever, dreamed of binding any member of the caucus to vote against his judgment. For instance Democrats and Republicans differ widely among themselves on financial questions. A caucus is held for consultation and financial topics are discussed, but in the senate and house each man votes as his judgment dictates; some may favor the free and unlimited coin-' age of silver at one ratio or another; some j may favor the sub-treasury plan of the Alii-! ance, and after a consultation in caucus they | vote for or against either proposition, when the occasion arises. Nobody is bound by the caucus unless he chooses voluntarily to be so bound. No oaths are administered, no pledges exacted, as a requisite of party fealty. If there were, I would never attend a caucus. In regard to demand "first" of the Alliance, I will say that the sub-treasury plan | has been abandoned because it was found to be impracticable and unconstitutional, and | therefore it is unnecessary to discuss it. In j my judgment a "better system" would be ; attained by the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax ou State banks of circulation, and I trust! that the Alliance will take that up and make j it one of its "demands." I cannot, of course,! discuss this proposition at length in this connection, but take the liberty of handing you | one of ray speeches delivered in the senate | at the last extra session, in which I have attempted to elaborate the argument in favor j of the repeal, and beg you to do me the favor to examine it. 1 think you will find j that if this tax should be repealed we would ' have a safe, sound, flexible curreuev," and enough of it. I favor the "free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 1G to 1," and advocated it in congress before the Alliance was organized, and am gratified to know that the Alliance has adopted my 1 platform on this subject. Fifty dollars per capita is not too much I currency for a country like ours, but the | trouble with our present financial system is not so much the per capita amount of currency as the unequality of its distribution. Some sections of the country have much more than $50 per capita, while in our section, I doubt if we have $2 per capita. If in our State we could be guaranteed $20 per , capita, if so much was necessary for the ' transaction of our business, I would com-: promise 011 that; we should then have about' $20,000,000 of currency in circulation in 1 South Carolina, whereas I doubt if we now ' have $2,000,000. If, by the repeal of the 10 j per cent, tax, the States should be permitted j to authorize banks of circulation, we should 1 have just so much currency as our local wants, and 110 more?but we should have enough. I favor an income tax and shall have an ! opportunity of voting for it in the pending ! tariff bill. I concur in the demand that "the j money of the country should be kept as! much as possible in the hands of the people,; and that all national and State revenues 1 ^ shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government economically administered." This is good sound, doctrine, and I heartily subscribe to it. I can see no objection to "postal savings1 banks," although a measure of that kind j would be largely tentative in this country, and should be adopted with caution and circumspection. The second general demand, as to the public lands, is sound and in accordance with true Democratic principles. The third general demand, "that thcgoverinent should own and operate the railroads | in the interest of the people," and that "the j telephone and telegraph should be owned and operated in the interest of the people" would be impolitic and unwise. I have always understood that the Alliance was op posed to the further increase of the "bonded debt" of the government, and I agree with the Alliance in that proposition. The government could not pay cash for the one hundred and ninety odd thousand miles of railroads, and the vast mileage of telegraph and telephones. The rate of taxation necessary to raise the cash would destroy the people, and the only alternative to put the government in ownership of the railroads, telegraphs and telephone would he to issue eight billions of bonds to buy the railroads, nol>ody knows how many millions to buy the telegraph and telephone systems of the country. Is the Alliance prepared to urge the creation of such a bonded debt upon the present and future generations, and thereby perpetuate the national banking systems indefinitely? If so, I cannot go with it. The government now has control and supervision of the railroads by and through the Interstate Commerce commission, and the experiment has not realized the expectations of its friends. The ownership of the railroads in depotic governments is justified on the ground that they are military necessities for rapid mobilization and transportation of n'tnins If li!>? nnt rp(h>nnih<(l tn thi> inter est of the people, for the freight rates are 50 per cent, higher in those countries than in this, and they are consequently a great burden upon the masses of the people. I believe 1 have now made full and complete answers to your inquiries, in general and in detail. If anything has heeti omitted, I will gladly supplement what I have said, if you will call it to my attention. Very truly yours, M. C. Butler. MERE MENTION.

Anti-Ferment as a remedy for dysentery and diarrluea has no equal. This is our honest opinion and we get at it from an experience of more than ten years in its manufacture and sale hud from the hundreds of reports and testimonials that have been voluntarily given us, besides the hundreds of cases with perfect results that have come under our own observation. It will euro any case of dysentery or diarrluea when given according to the directions and a proper rliot observed during its administration. Don't expect one close to complete a cure, however. One close always makes a patient feel so much better that they often come to the conclusion that another dose is unnecessary. Take it until nil symptoms disappear. In the colic of children and thediarrluea and dysentery that occur in the teething period, it is a "life boat" sent out to their rescue. It cures where all other remedies fail.. Don't punish your child by waiting till all other medicines have failed, but give it at once and keep a bottle always in the house. John* C. Kuvkkndai,. Woe is Me, Cricth the Dyspeptic. And a woeful thing it is to be a victim of the dread complaint. It deranges in some manner every organ in the human system ; it throws out its a kind of skirmish line to harrass and torture its subject, symptoms of almost all the diseases that alllict the human family. It wastes the tissues, it deadens the energies, it crushes ambition, it destroys hope, and reason itself trembles at its attacks. But be of good cheer, sufferer; you have but to reach out your hand to find the remedy. Take from one teaspoonful to one tablespoon ful of Anti-Ferment alter each meal. That's all you have to do.

AN EXPLANATION OF HOW I SELL GOODS CLOSER THAN OTHERS. It is Because I Buy Cheaper By Paying Spot Cash. I MY SALES THIS SPRING ARE FAR | BEYOND MY MOST SANGUINE EXPECTATIONS. Tlie Reason is I Have the Quality Along With the Prices to Suit the People. DON'T FORGET MY OUTINGS. rpiIK hard times are fast disappearing beyond A the distant horizon, and things are beginning to look brighter everywhere, at least it would seem so from my large sales of the past three months. Why is this? Is it because I am tlie only merchant in town doing business, and have a monopoly? Oh, no, it is not that. Here | is what is the matter: The wholesale merchants I of the North have found out that I am alive to the interests of mv customers, that I have the CASH TO DISCOUNT MY BILLS, and that I want the best of quality. Hence they send their traveling men to see me, and oiler goods at lower prices than were ever ottered before, and I am not afraid to buy and give my customers the benefit. Then another thing is I always sell at a very small margin, you see, I can charge a profit of 19 per cent, on my goods, and turn my stock over four times, each time making 10 per cent., thus making a profit of 40 per cent, on my year's | work, whore it used to he the way to make a I prolit of 50 per cent, and turn the stock over! once; you see the point, don't you. Points to Keep in Mind : I K KK1' my stock up to date. I K EE1' only the host of quality. I KEEP paving cash for goods and discount I all bills. I K EEC ordering as my stock decreases. I make 10 per cent, on goods and give my ens- j turners the benefit of the remaining 15 or 20 per ( cent, usually charged by "old time" merchants. Agents for Uoats's Cotton. II. U. STItAUSS. JOHN .1.

They are now well. I regard your Remedy as a panacea for this fearful disease. I am, yours sincerely, W.S. HLACK, 1). I). Superintendent Oxford Orphan Asylum. During the later months of last year, I was troubled with a breaking out on "my leg. It came at first in the form of a very large running sore. After about a month it commenced to spread and continued until one-half of my leg, from the knee down, was almost a solid sore. It " gave tne much trouble. At times I was unable to walk. I tried various remedies recommended by friends as well as my family physician, but it continued to spread and grow worse. One day I was talking with a friend about having it amputated, and she persuaded me to try Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy. I bought some of the remedy and wash, and it began to improve at once, and very soon a cure was perfected. John W. Johnson, Stony Creek, Caswell county, N. ('. February 7, IHiM.
