consultation, reported the resolution,
as set out In the Issue of the Journal of
the nith.
What was the part of my set of res-
Intlons not adopted ? , V
S.mply Uhls: I said that we should
have a free coinage of allyer lane, with
.hese limitations: Than the silver dol
lar should, hi all . nees, be of equal
roainsio and exchangeable value with
that of ahe gold.
That It should tie of equal value In
th« markets and In the payments of
debts with that of the gold, and then
there should be no dLscrlm-inailon as to
either metal or charge for mintage:
Is this not sound currency? Is there
any cause for a "goldbug” to growl
as to this proposed resolution? Can
anyone say the principles therein con
tained -were not declared for and spo
ken for in our platform In the last
campaign?
•No! There 1s nothing thereto that
Is not set out In the platform of the
party, and there Is no cause for any
alarm by the “soreheads'' or other per
sons as to the action ko the Democracy
of Dooly. She la safe and sound, and
when the general roll Os called In the
next (take convention and In the next
general assembly, the response win ibe
that Dooly Is (.till In the true Demo
cratic fold, and proposes to support
the nominees of uhe party and carry
out Its time-honored prlnolpieo. Most
respectfully yours,

PREJE FU3HGATION.
Oharleston Has Taken a Wise Step to
Increase Port Importations.
Charleston, July 10.—The following
announcement was made by the board
of henltih: "The board of h’.*alth of
Charleston hereby announces to the
commercial world that from the 1st
day of August. 1894. tliere will be no
charge at Fort Jefferson quarantine
station. Charleston harbor, for fumlgar
tion and dlsinfaction of vessels con
signed to this port. They take this oc
casion to state that the means and: ap
pliances at the station are on the high
est plane of scientific procedure, nnd
wilt be so continued, Insuring Uhe most
thorough purification of all vessels ar
riving from suspected or Infected
ports, and the least possible deten
tion."
This action of the board of health
was taken ln pursuance of a general
movement among the Atlantic boards
of commerce to reduce nil charges for
doing business nt this port. The re
moval of quarantine charges will save
thousands of dollars to ®h1ip owners
and instue n large Increase of tonnage
nt the port during the coming year.
The quarantine plant at Charleston ia
thi* most complete i»Ian*t In all iN np-.
polr.tments in the South. It will con
tinue to be under the administration
and supervision of the board of heaWh v
but hereafter the city and not the
ships will pay the expenses.
