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.
Tom Watson made a speech to a big crowd \
of Populists in the Atlanta opera house on!
last Wednesday night and during the course j
i of his remarks characterized Cleveland as j
i being as much of an anarchist as the man,
j who would throw a bomb. The inves
: ligation of the Carnegie steel plate frauds is i
I progressing slowly. Most of the newspapers
j are of the.opinioii that those in charge of the ;
1 investigation are looking for something they
| do no; wish to find. It is rumored that.
j Senator Hill proposes to offer as a substitute
for the Wilson bill a new tariff bill drawn on
the "for revenue only" basis. A terrific j
storm sweat Lake Michigan last Thursday j
J and Friday. Ten men were drowned in the j
j vicinity of Chicago. Augusta, Gu., was j
visited by a cyclone last Saturday. Several
; houses were blown down but nobody was
| killed. Miss Emma Reynolds Moody,
daughter of the celebrated evangelist, was
married in Chicago last week to Arthur P.
Fitt, of that city. "Rev. John W. Langley,
an eminent Methodist preacher fell from
his pulpit in Philadelphia recently, stricken
with paralysis. The Pennsylvania coke
' companies have adopted a policy of displac!
ing foreign laborers with Negroes. The
i gold reserve in the treasury has been reduced
I to about $80,000,000. Four Harvard
I college students were drowned last Thurs:
day, while on a pleasure excursion in Boston
harbor. The consideration of tlie
bill for the repeal of tax on the issues of
State banks has been postponed until some
time this week. The friends of the bill say it
will be taken up as soon as the appropriation
bill is disposed of and some say it will be a
law by the 1st of July. William Keen,
' a flagman on the Lehigh Valley railroad was
i one day last week seized by six men and
I forced to eat soap and drink whisky. The
outrage was perpetrated by some strikers
because Keen took the place of one of
them. The Susquehannah river and all"
its branches in Pennsylvania are on the
I highest boom that has been known for years.
[ Hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth
of property have been destroyed and many
lives have been lost. The first duel
that has been known in Indiana'for thirty
years occurred between two young men at
Jpflfbrsnnville lust Saturdav. One of the
men received a bullet in the thigh but was
not seriously injured. The governor
of Indiana has offered Senator Yoorhees a
judgeship that is worth $7,">00 a year. The
senator, however, says that his constituents
put him in the senate and he owes it to them
to stay there. The Mississippi river is
reported as being dangerously high. i

Studying tlie Catawbas. 1
? Rock Hill Herald, Wednesday: Mr.
McDonald Furman, of Sumter county, spent
several days in Rock Hill and vicinity, leaving
for home yesterday. He is an enthusiastic ^
student of the history of the Catawba In- j
dians and for 17 years has been making in- .
vestigations concerning this tribe of red men. j
He thinks the Catawbas are the noblest of
all the North American Indians and in his \
researches has learned a great deal of their
history. He spent Monday in the nation 1
and heard from the older members of the 1
tribe many interesting stories that have
come down to them through tradition. His
visit was for the purpose of gaining some information
which he proposes to incorporate
in an article which he is preparing for The ]

Does Accident Insurance I'ay?
Most assuredly it does if carried in a strong
and reliable frunpany. That's the kind the'
United States Mutual Accident association is. i
It has the contidence of the people. It carries,
more accident insurance by ^175,000,000 than any
company in tin* worm aim lis patrons arc mcr- >
chants, doctors, lawyers, book keepers, clerks j
and professional men generally. Mr. \V. C.
Latimer, one of Yorkville's leading merchants,!
carries an accident policy in the United States j
M. Accident association. The association, in that
policy agrees to pay Mr. Latimer $?.*?,()<K? incase
of death by accident, ?2,500 for the loss of an j
armor leg, ?5,000 for the loss of both arms or!
both legs, or one arm and one log, or ?25 a week |
during inability to attend to business on account i
of an accident, and charges him ?24 a year for it,
payable quarterly. Two weeks ago, or 011 the 7th
of May, M r. Latimer run a nail in his foot and has
been unable to wear his shoe since, but has not
been confined to his room. We will let him tell

A Life Boat to the Rescue.
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.

yol', no doubt, have heard that there wasaj
JL small tire in town yesterday, and with our :
stdendid water supply the house burned down? ! :
the lire could not be extinguished. There J
was no insurance. It would have as readily j;
burned had it been insured. It was not the 1
fault of our water supply or the elliciency of
our lire companies. It was not discovered in
time. The St. Charles hotel in New Orleans, caught
lire night before last. The water supply
and lire department of the eitv is sup- ;
posed to be ADKQIATK and ellicient, but t
today that famous hotel, which was worth over
?.'{<X>,<XX), is in ashes, and the insurance companies
of America are minus about ?210,ixxi. The

M us. Jok Pkiison : Hoar Madam?We have
tried your remedy 011 live of our children with
the best of results. These ^children had been
troubled with Scrofula for some time, being
naturally very delicate. 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.
