The local society of the Sons of the Amer- ican Revolution held its January meeting at Welcker’s last evening, the anniversary ef the battle of Cowpens. In the speeches, which formed a pleasant feature of the evening, numerous references were made to this historic occasion. Gen. Breckinridge presided at the meeting and prior to the speechmaking some routine business was accomplished, including the reports of offi- cers and the delivery of certificates to mem- bers who had lately been qualified. Sev- eral amepdments to the constitution that are to be presented before the continental congress, which assembles in this city February 22, were also read for the con- sideration of the meeting. President Breckinridge, in opening the symposium, made an address of an in- tensely patriotic nature, in which he said that the society had in view all the time the encouragement of American institu- tions. Chaplain Childs read an interest- ing paper on the subject of “Shay’s Re- bellion,” after which President E. M. Gal- laudet of Kendall Green spoke briefly. Other addresses were delivered by Mr. A. T. Tracy, Gen. L. A. Grant, until recently, astistant secretary of war; C. H. Mansur, Prof. J. R. Eastman, W. A. DeCaindry, and Gen. A. W. Greely. After the formal meeting a handsome collation was served. Among the members of the society present were: Gen. J. D. Breckinridge, U. S. A. President E. M. Gallaudet, M. J.

RALEIGH, N. C., Jan. 16, 1894. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. Of political talk and surmises there are now much in this state. The populists are first in the field. Marion Butler, their chair- | man, has issued a stirring address,in which ‘he urges the party to unite all its forces { and present a solid front. He asserts that the point where the democrats are to be | attacked is in regard to the election law of | 1891. He calls for complete organization in | counties in thirty days, and in townships } in sixty days. This makes it clear that the populist effort this year will be mainly one to capture the legislature. The alliance, which in 1892 became the third party, once had entire control of the legislature, the | latter being then termed popularly the “al- lance legislature." The populists made a | sad fallure in 18v2 in their attempts to elect | Congressmen. Populist leaders claim that their party jhas gained 40 per cent since 1892 They | allege that in that year 50,000 people, whom they term “reformers,” were induced to vote for Carr for governor, and for the re- | mainder of the democratic ticket, but were | deceived, and will this year cast populist votes. On the part of many democrats feeling against Mr. Cleveland and his policy is in- | tensely bitter. A democratic paper made a | prize offer to any intelligent farmer, or doctoz, or lawyer in its county who would say that he indorsed the Cleveland finan- | cial policy, but there have been no takers, | it _appears. It is interesting to get at the strength of the alliance in this state, which in 180) was 104,000. The late L. L. Polk, president of | the national alliance, gave your corres- pondent these figures. An official state | publication estimates the number now at only 16,000, but officers of the alliance say | there are thric® as many. Of course, it is | an open secret that the populists (or “third | party,” as they are nearly always termed jin North Carolina) absolutely dominate the | alliance. Republicans of Different Minds. Republicans are of many minds, Some | wish to combine with the populists, and | carry out the plans which they urged their |Party to adopt in 1892. To this coalition there is strenuous and powerful opposition, | for at heart the republicans have contempt | for and distrust of the populists. Some re- publicans will urge that this year there be ;ho conyention held and no nominations |made by their party, and that the party publish to the world the statement that it makes no nominations because of the pres- ent election law. What they mean by this |is to assert that the democrats will count them out, and hence that an election is a | farce and waste of time. The republicans who hold this view are now declaring that there is a great clamor in. Virginia for a good election law and that is being made by democrats. They also say that there are signs of such a move- ment in North Carolina, and that if the democrats have the entire field and no re- publican opposition, they will soon divide themselves and bring about the changes in the law which the republicans insist are needed. Western republicans are nearly all white, and they favor a square-cut fight, a com- plete ticket, etc. They ‘e the men who want to get rid of the color line in politics, by eliminating the negro and having a white republican party. Of course, these western republicans are a power in their party. They carried their point in 1802 overwhelmingly. Your correspondent believes they will this year again dominate their party and force it to put a full ticket for Congress, judges and the legislature in the field. For though it is a side year in politics, yet it @ very important one, for many offices are to be filled. A chief justice and three asso- ciates on the supreme court bench, and four superior court judges are to be elected. The election determines the complexion of the supreme ccurt bench for eight years. Nine members of Congress, fifty state senators and 120 members of the house are to be elected. This legislature will elect a United States Senator to succeed M. W. Ransom, nd a railway commissioner. All the coun- ty officers in the state are also to be chosen. This Year's Elections. It is perfectly clear that the campaign will be a warm one, and that it will contain many surprises is also certain. The demo- crats, so triumphant in November, 1802, are now greatly disorganized. Ransom has many bitter enemies and so has Vance. The latter was in fact almost given the cold shoulder on the occasion of his last public appearance in this city, while at a mass meeting of people in Ransom's own county he was made extremely angry by the bitter- ness of the attacks upon him and the reso- lutions adopted. One of the best informed democrats in the state says that the republicans are stronge> now than at any time in twelve years past, | and does not believe they will combine with the populists. He confesses that the demo- crats will have to do their most earnest and persistent work to elect their Congressmen in the third, fifth and eighth districts. A democrat, who was told of this by your cor- respondent, declared his belief that all the nine districts were doubtful. But long ago a North Carolina Senator gave utterance to the remark, “‘All hell can’t beat a scared democrat.” Just now the great mass of the democrats are disorganized, torn up and embittered against the Cleveland adminis- tration. There is plenty of wild talk. Few men, extremely few, can now be found in this state who indorse Cleveland. This is @ new departure for North Carolina democ- racy, and it is a serious thing. It means that the state is aguin a doubtful one. That assertion will hardly be gainsaid. An early campaign may be expected, and one on some new lines. The democrats will not follow men so much as heretofore, but measures. It is felt strongly and bitterly away from the Chicago platform. Senator Vance will continue to oppose the confirmation of F. M. Simmons as collector of this district. Simmons is the democratic state chairman. A newspaper evidently speaks by authority of Senator Vance when it declares the latter will fight Simmons still. It was thought the fight was ended. It is certainly injuring Vance, particularly in the cast. = Columbian Notes.

The Prince of Wales had an unusually large party at Sandringham for the Christ- nm Exposition. From the London Mustrated News. Very little was said in the journals of the interesting bacteriological department of the great exposition, and I was glad to ob- serve that Dr. Egbert Guernsey, the emi- nent physician of 5th avenue, in the New York Medical Times paid a tribute to the acumen and industry of Prof. Brieger, who collected specimens, and inclosed them in vials, of the swiftest and most powerful poisons on the earth, infinitely more de- structive to life than the vegetable alka- loids, all obtained from the dead bodies of those who have fallen victims to various bacteria. This class of poisons are termed toxines, toxalbumines or cadavirines, and include in their list such poisons as neu- rine, betains, textanotoxine, typhotaxine, toxalbumines of cholera or typhus and cadavirine, obtained from the normal body. The poisons are not the bacteria them- selves, but ptomaines formed by the rear- rangement of the atoms of which flesh Is composed, by the action of bacteria, which develop with incalculable rapidity. Through their action the atoms which form healthy flesh are so rearranged as to form the dead- ly poisons which paralyze the vital forces in cholera, in typhus and yellow fever, and in a host of other diseases. In isolating the bacteria, reproducing them by culture and obtaining in crystallized forms the product of their work in the deadly pto- maines, the scientist has not only been able to reproduce symptom by symptom, in the scribes one of the attractions at the house: The mere look of the hall, with a stuifed air of comfort parrot of “God save the queen.” The prin- the place.

This Country W Weather the Fi- meial Doldrums All Right. “It has come to pass that the man who engages in financial business in New York city may not give forth the most conserva- tive and trivial utterances on the subject of the financial affairs of the government with- out being immediately jumped upon by the newspapers throughout a certain large area of the country, and branded as « ‘gold bug,’ ‘government dictator of Wall street,’ and all that sort of thing,” said Mr. J. G. Can- non, vice president of the Fourth National Bank of New York city, at the Arlington this morning, to a Star reporter. “This, I know, is the reason why the majority of the financiers in New York are very chary | nowadays in their expressions upon any public financial question, for, like any other class of citizens, they at length cease to extract amusement from the fierce diatribes and thunderous phillipics which greet their casual printed remarks. A Wise Measure. “Nevertheless, I think it will be the gen- eral sense of conservative financial men, not only in New York, but in all great commercial centers throughout the coun- try, that there could be no wiser nor more justifiable means of relieving the treasury of | the rather heavy and unusual burdens which are now weighing it down than by the is- suance of bonds under the resumption act, as proposed by Secretary Carlisle. I have had a couple of glimpses into the proceed- ings in Congress since my arrival in Wash- | ington, and it was plainly apparent to me that Mr. Carlisle would have been obliged to wait for an indefinite period had he de- pended upon Congress to afford the means for the amelioration of the present finan- clal conditions. Of course, the bonds will be immediately and eagerly taken up, and I am quite prepared to believe the news contained in a dispatch which I have just read in a newspaper, to the effect that a ; New York syndicate had offered to take $25,000,000 of the bonds offhand. “The feeling of alarm which seems to clutch a great part of the country over the condition of the treasury is certainly not shared among the financial men of New York. It would be all right to talk about the country’s verging upon bankruptcy if any such remote possibility existed, but it does not. No country, no matter how great its wealth and resources, can expecl to forever tread the roseate path of financial supremacy, and 1 believe that the little experience through which the United States has lately been passing will be valu- able as showing the world in general how easily and comfortably we can emerge from the financial doldrums.” e Women Temperance Workers.
