Eiiion. Jhtre came dan gerously near being a personal difficulty ;m the stand, between Govercor | Tillman and Col. Orr. the Conservative candidate for Lieutenant Governor, which would have resulted in a riot. Ia his speech. Governor Tillman asked Colonel Orr for h ? authority for saying that a preacher had said that he (Tillman) flaunted his profanity * in public. Col. Orr replied tnat be did not divulge con versations and added that Tillman knew ? he statement was true as he could ascer tain by appealing to the preachers in gen eral ! The Governor said that sometimes an oath slipped out, but that it had done so only on one occasion during the cam paign. He appealed to the ladies pres ent to signify if in their opinion they considered hire a blackguard, but there was no response from. them. The Governor then said that Orr or any other mm who said he flaunted his pro fanity in public lied. CoL Orr advanced to the Governor and atching him by the arm wheeled him amund and asked him if he waa trying to raise a personal difficulty . Tillman said he was not and Orr shook his finger in his face and told him that he could not iatimat; that he (Orr) lied without having it thrown in his (Tillman's) teeth. He. told him further that Tillman had boasted of being ''Almighty God gentle man." The Governor said so he had, and Orr replied that He did not do himself cred - rt when He made you. He again caught hold of the Governor and asked him if he meant to intimate that he was a liar. The Governor said that if Orr did not originate the statement did not apply to him. By this time the crowd had become a raging mob. People climbed up on the stand. Men pulled off their coats, -swore like troopers and gathered around the two men. It lookecf for all the wor|d as if blood was to be *hed. Col. Orr stood to the rack and told Tillman he had re peatedly used curse words on the stand. The Governor said he had not done it but once, and he would leave it to ex Governor Sheppard who, however, bad nothing to say. The excitement try this time was intense. &Col. Orr again catfght hold of Tillman, who' bad turned nis head toward the crowd ib front, and told him if he wanted a -fight b4 could get it. The Governor said be-3id not and CoL Orr west back to his seat, remarking that Tillman must let him ^sjose. The Gov ernor turned to the cuowd ai d said no living man could bulldoze him. Af.er a good deal of difficulty the crowd was quieted. J ad go Joseph J. Davit Dead. Raleigh, N. C.? Associate Justice Joseph J.

There is Ephraim Newell of Ellington, in lofty Telli^ county for instance, who' became 85 years old one day Mocently, and celebrated i the event by taking down the[ old Newel cradle and eradilng just one acre ot Stout rye in the ,; forenoon of the day. jS itf one of his neighbors, speaking of the old roan's/vigor : "Why, he not only cut the cleanest clip of all the men who worked with him i* that field, but he cratfli d right around men who are not more th^u one-half bis age. It was a < boiling hot day, too." ftl| a fact that the best rye cradler in Xew London county is a man over 8t) , -Tears old, and he is as straight as <* n uv row, 6 fcetf 2 inches tall, and with the full, plump muscles of a man of 40.; In the same ifcounty is Francis Browp, of Norwichf who is 80 years old, and who a week a?fo erad led an acre <>f rye on his farm near that city. Oilbeit Chandltr, ?f Putnam, Windham county, recently celebrated the eightieth anniversary of his birthday, and the day before that* in cident he shingled one roof of his hou:e i alpng. ?

He takes chances that would appall pome oi the modern dudes of 18 or 20. So he got ron away with the other day, driving in bis usual reckless style, and got 1 'hove -3TSt," the Brooklyn folks put it. He fell on a heap of stone3. and was bruised about his side and shoulders Most men would have been done up by the acci dent, but the Deacon was at work about hia farm a day or two later.

I think it weald be welll tc sboliih the whole sys tem of bank not) issues No banking iastitntfea skould be permitted t > issue anything wMch is to be need ss legal tender money unlets the Issue is support ed by the pn wer and the material used, Habmr it nay o^jhould -not be re* deessabh in acyS^fcJt ouj<ht to go Lout to the people fullfiedged, | ready fer drt;y, weight or impediment or coodiMBBf any sort, wlat ver. What, we ulffl^oney should be absolutely free fr^ro alP^onditions, en tkat there could ie no f'runs" on banks in tine of stringsncy, and no panics bo* csase debtors are iunable . to obtain legej* tender money. It believe thatT/ tbtf time has come to nationalize our ittonejl. We took one- long stejp in that direction when we adopted our national banking sys tem. We tixed State bank notes out of existence, swbstitu'^d a nation t' cmrency for a purely Jo aUcurrency ; and it was only a short time alter embarking in this new enterptise until wfdiscoYered that the bankers of the country M ere masters of the financial situation. We find that instead of serving the people they seared themselves. In 1883 there were $358, 01?, 000 of bank botes circulation Since - that time about : $340,0 6,000 of H has been retired, not bee iuse the people did apt need the money, but because the banks realized a profit from the sale of their bond ?;t premium, the botds that they had deposited as security for circu lation. Our experience and that of pther nations Vm been that banking corpora tions are private schemes for nrOdt to indi vidual persons, *nd oaf observation has. taught us that there is only one saf# way to avoid the* dangers to which that sort of financial management subject us; tint 4a for the nation itself to prepare iu own money, evety dollar of it, issu * it to the people directly though government agencies, wholly without the u?e a*d in tervention of banking corporations or other private agencies. You understand from the foreg in? that 1 would not only substitute United States notes, or .treasury notes, if you choose, for national bank notes ss they are being retired, but I would substitute that sort of mmev fora'l bank issues; and I would do even more than that; I woul i not make money out of a promise to pay; that is to say 'I would not w ite out a promise to pay money and call promise money; but I of Daner iust -^JMtffellMP^PVjrTpiece _ fece of silver, and make that money, providing in the lsw what it* functions shall oe. That puts the influence, the credit, and the power of all the people behind the money. * Then we will have gold and silver and paper at par, one with the other; and that, if we will reduce rates of interest down to the level of profit on labor, so that men can make as much money farming or blacksmithiog or carpentering as they can by lending money, will give us a safe currency, a sound financial system, and no more money panics. >?, ?
