Mexico and every South and Cen
tral Ameriean country would buy
the manufactures and produce of
North Carolina, and send more silver
into that State to pay for them, thus
stimulating North Carolina into be
ing the greatest manufacturing State
in the United States because of this
bounty of one hundred per rent.
China, Japan and India, would do
the same, and North Carolina would
in time become the greatest mart of
commerce in the United Stat , and
soon in position to open terms for
the actual purchase of somo first-
class harbor.
It wonld at one In-come the en-
repot of the shipping of practically
ALL TRADE between the United
States and silver-basis countries.
Freight trains would pass into it un
der custom sealed cars, and it would
assume the importance of a free port
in the midst of custom-duly ports.
Right here and now, silverites of
this country hold the whip handle
over the goldites. AH they have to
do is to get a State or several States
to at once make foreign silver coins
a full legal tender in their confines.
That once done, the 100 per cent.
bounty (less rise in prices and wages)
enjoyed by that State, will so revo-
ntionize the whole trade of this
country, that the goldites will be
completely knocked out on the first
round.
A VOICE FROM COLORADO.
Tha People of That Stwta Are Tired of Old
Party Fnaloa.
For The Caucasian.
Leadville, Colo.. May 18. I
write to commend the action taken
by the Populists of North Carolina
on the question of fusion in and out
of your State.
The great body of Colorado voters
are heartily sick of any intended ac
tion looking to fusion with either of
the old parties.
