Address THE MESSENGER PUBLISHING HOUSE, J. A. BONITZ, : : : Proprietor, . GOLDS BOKO, N. C,. THURSDAY, - NOVEMBER 11, 1386 In the midst of the wreck of planets and the danger of suns comes news that the asteroid Dick Townshend is safe by an increased majority! 'The unblushing Democratic fraud' is the Republican explanation of our success in California and Indiana, yet this unblushing impudence q.nd self Tighteousness of the inventors of frauds political is the marvel of all marvels. Chairman Battle, of the Demo cratic Executive Committee, says that the democratic judicial ticket is elect ed by fifteen thousand majority, at least. The Senate will show thirty Democrats, including three Independ ents. The House sixty-six Demo crats, including ten Independents. r ' m : We wish the Republican; papers would print with comments the partic ulars of the Texas shooting scraf e, where a negro shot a white man be cause the latter was a Demoorat. There has been so much talk about the shot gun policy that it mighjt be well to explain why it is damnable for white Democrats to kill Republican negroes, but patriotic for negro Re publicans to kill white Democrats. . THE trend of events in Bulgaria is to war brought on by Russia for her wn purposes. Whenever tbjis power makes up her mind she will precipitate matters. That time seems imminent. She is trying to stir up b$ aid of a naere handful of malcontents, hardly a corporal's guard, some sort of a pre text for interference in the affairs of the principality. England!, Austria and Italy should prepare for war, and 1 so should Turkey. j : mi j The Washington Star figures it out that in the event of the election of the President being thrown in the House of Representatives, that Republicans control 19 State delegations and the Democrats 17, with one State, New Hampshire, equally divided one Re publican and one Democrat. ' But the constitution requires that "a majority of all the States shall be necessary to a choice." So twenty votes will be . necessary to elect a President as there are 38 States. It is a great pity some of the other districts didn't, get scared like the First. The fact is if the Democrats in the Fourth and Fifth districts had re alized their danger, both Graham and Reid would now feel comfortable and many Democrats would have nothing with which to reproach themselves. Monsieur Uneasy is a handier man in politics than two such men as M. M. Apathy and Over Confidence. What we want in North Carolina is thorough township organization. Ex-Congressman Frank Hurd says that his crushing defeat closes his po litical career in Toledo, and intimates that he may in the future try for a Congressional nomination in a New York city district. He has been eight successive times the Democratic can ditate for Congress in the Toledo dis trict, and has been three times elect ed. Hurd is one of the brainiest men of our times. He was the finest ora tor of the 48th Congress. But he is not merely brilliant he is solid as a lawyer and legislator. Some men like Blackburn, of Kentucky, have no reserve force; but Hurd has, if possi ble, more ideas than power of expres sion, fine as that is. A London correspondent learns that the movement for educating the public in the principles of home rule has taken very large dimensions, and is being pushed with the greatest vigor. Four English barristers, first rate, ex perienced speakers are preparing with great care a series of lectures on the home rule question, which they will deliver all over England, and in sixty- four divisions of London. Immedi ately after each lecture the neighbor hood will be flooded with political lit erature inculcating the same princi ples. A great meeting will be held in London at Hackney." It is stated that Gladstone has privately promised to speak there it he can do so. aometning like this is needed in this country to to educate the people on the subject of revenue reform. The Messenger advocates the formation of clubs and the circulation of such papers as the Philadelphia Record, the Boston Herald, and the New York Times, as well as of home papers like the Messenger, the Wilmington Star, Raleigh News-Observer and State Chronicle and others. Let us have a low tariff propaganda. Noth ipg is needed but information. THE : . . ELECTION. S(jmff-ot't.ikde friends are jMly'f rignnetlp ffri Messenger recg&izeis.te dangTB"4s well as they do, but it has confidence in the Demo cratic party 'which in the hundred years of its existence has rapidly re coverjed frotti the disasters which have several timeYtraf alien it. We protest in the name of the great mass of the people against the truck ling tone of certain would-be organs to the labor organizations since the elections. The Democratic party, is now arid has been the true friend of laboring people, t It will do in the fu ture as it has done in the past what is reasonable for the benefit of the manual laborers of this land. It has required no local checks anywhere to make it determine to dp its duty in this respect. But for the agitators who aid the Republican party, Demo crats have no countenance. Let these selfish demagogues go openly where they belong. The recent elections were checks .i it a ; ' . i upon tne progress oc me American Democracy, not serious defeats; they were due to causes easily understood, and wliich may not soon arise again. The chief of these causes, aside from purely local considerations, were the love of office and the labor agitators. With Mr. Morrison, the Messenger contends that the cause of tariff re form is "growing right alqng. We have lost nc strength." The only danger the Democratic party faces to-day is a continuance of the war upon a Democratic adminis tration. Every man of sense must see that the party can only stand by sus taining the President. The President is right, and so say a majority of the Democrats and a not inconsiderable number of Republicans. In the elec tions of last week the administration strongholds gave increased majorities. We gained in Massachusetts, and we elected Judge Pelham in New York. In Indiania and Virginia, where bitter complaint had been made against Mr. Cleveland, we lost in the latter heav ily. What do these things mean if not that the people have confidence in the courage and integrity as well as the ability of the President? As to North Carolina, what shall we say that everybody does not know ? The State was plastered over with in dependents, and as they were gener ally supported by the Republicans, many were elected. Besides, the peo ple were not on guard. Objections were raised to the stock law, and in a few places the temperance question entered. In some quarters appoint ments to office were unpopular. The next time we will know better how to do things. Outside of purely party considera tions, we regret the defeat of Mr. Reid in the 5tb, and of Maj. Graham in the 4th districts. The former is the youngest, but one of the most active, members of the North Carolina dele gation. The cruel blow which has fallen upon him was undeserved. We think in course of time that he will recover from it, for he is not the man to accept defeat meekly at the hands of secret or open enemies. Gifted and of high character, he will rise supe rior to misfortune. Maj. Graham is a sound Democrat of ability and integ rity. He will live to be even more useful to the public than in the past. The gallant Simmons, who succeeds a well nigh hopeless cause, has a good future no man can doubt that. We touch our hat in honor to him and the chivalric Democracy of the Black district. THE STATE TICKET. The first district gives Blount, dem ocrat, 12G0 majority over Sparrow; the same eounties gave Latham a ma jority of 1150. The News-Observer as sumes that the majority of the Demo cratic judicial ticket in that district will be 1000. The second district gives a Republi can majority of about 5000. The third district gives a Democratic majority of 500. The fourth district giyes a Republi can majority of 575. The fifth district gives a Republican majority of 75. The sixth district gives a Democratic majority of about 3800. The seventh district gives a Demo: cratic majority of 2600. The eighth district gives a Democrat ic majority of 4100. The ninth district gives apparently 900 Republican majority. The tenth district gives a Democrat ic majority of 2700. The eleventh district gives a Demo cratic majority of 8000. We estimate on very meagre intel ligence that the twelfth distrist will give a Democratic majority of 2000. On this showing the Democratic majority in the State will be 18,000. In England the .funny spectacle is presented of the leader of the Old Tories in full revolt against Randolph Churchill's cloture proposition, quo ting the noble lord's own speeches against the noble lord's present posi tion. The cloture is a parliamentary gag, only employed heretofore, we be- Kieve, in Fngland to suppress the Irish members. It is borrowed from the French, and is a despotic proceeding infinitely worse , than our previous question, which allows half a hour for debate before a vote. Fruit Jabs.

FURTHER NOTES ON - THE NEXT HOUSE i " The latest returns" .at band. make it appear that the Democratic majority in the,next House will be twenty-bne, including: the twd labor men who, it is understood, will both vote with; the Democrats. It now seems the Repub licans, have elected four Represent tives in California and the Democrats two. The Democrats elect their can didatein the 2a North ..

The national prison reform associa tion opened in Atlanta on Saturday eyening. Ex-Governor Bullock, of Georgia, made the opening address. Addresses of welcome were made by Governor McDaniel and Mayor .Hill yer. Ex-President Hayes, president of the association, then made an ad dress reviewing its aims and work. The congress continued its session on Sunday, and the annual sermon was preached by Rev. Dr. Hagood. The sermon was a strong attack on the "convict lease system," A meetingof the universal peace society was held in the afternoon. This society has no connection with the prison reform as sociation, but a number of its mem bers were in attendance upon "the prison reform congress, and resolved to hold the meeting. Th,e strike of 25,000 men employed in the pork-packing establishments in Chicago has been promptly followed fcy an order from the Governor of Illi nois calling out two regiments of the State troops, "armed and equipped for active service." It is a forgone con clusion that riot and bloodshed can only be averted by the leaders of the labor organization, who have inaugu rated the strike, and it remains to be seen whether they can control the large number of men whom they have induced to quit work, and who will probably attempt to prevent others from taking their places. The de mand on the part of the strikers, it is stated, is that eight hours shall con stitute a days work, the men agreeing to accept ten per cent, reduction in their present wages to secure the prin ciple for which they are striving. What is really aimed to e accom plished, we suppose, is not that the men shall work only eight hours a day, but that eight hours shall be paid for as a day's labor, over time being paid for at the same or a higher rate. The effect of this arrangement in the case of the Chicago . strikers would be to increase their wages by twenty-five per cent, when they work ten hours a day. It is this'increase in wages that the pork-packers are resisting, and the reason they assigned some months ago for refusal holds good now. The effect of paying higher wages to their employes would be, of course, to in crease the expense of the pork-pack ing business in Chicago; and if pack ers in other northwestern cities con tinned to pay the old rate of wages, competition on the part of the Chicago packers would be rendered impossible and they would be soon bankrupted. ELECTION NEWS. The News-Observer says: Our estimate on Sunday was that the democratic majority would be be tween ten and twelve thousand, lean ing to the higher figures, as we had made most conservative estimates of counties not heard from. To-day we are able to make a closer and more satisfactory cast of the result, which will hardly vary five hundred from 18,000. It was not very much of a shower after alL By the election of W. C. Fields from the thirty-fifth district, the Senate stands 30 democrats, of whom 3 ran as independents, leaving 20 republican members of that body. Our latest re turns of members of the House make 66 democratic members, of whom 10 were not regular democratic nominees. The body will contain 54 republicans. In the1 first- district Latham's ma jorities were: Currituck 608, Camden U46, Pasquotank 290r Gates 371, Mar- tid . 763,, Carteret J.UW, Tyrrell iw, Hyde lSOPare 50.

Brower's net majority is 1,660. In the second district, the counties of Warren; Vance, Northampton and Wilson gave Simmons 5,336 votes, O'Hara 4,321, and Abbott 1,262. The republicans in Edgecombe voted al most solidly for Abbottj and in Craven Simmons had 43 majority. We .have not the full vote of Halifax, Greene, Edgecombe, Lenoir or Craven. Sim mons' majority is stated to be 1,853. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. WHAT DEMOCRATS SAY OP THE ELECTION. A Little Sore Over Some of the Facts, but Not Discouraged to the General Result. as I Staff Correspondence of the Messenger.! Washington, November 6. There was some little worry at first, but the Democrats expecjted losses and they have settled down to an acceptance in the result with great equanimity. Most Democrats hereabouts are dis posed to put the blame on the admin istration and the labor agitation. Oth ers complain of the love of office. Dr. Fisher, a well-known Virginia politi cian said to me yesterday that the Virginians were simply disgusted with the administration policy, and that the State would be "all right as befrre in 1888. There is more talk of Hill and less of Cleveland among Southern men and anti-reformers. But this was to be expected. It will not last long. Representative Gibson, of West Vir ginia,thinks the Democratic losses are due in part to the action of Mr. Ran dall and his followers in preventing the tariff legislation the Democratic party had promised, and in part to the dissatisfaction of Democrats who wanted a, strictly party administra tion. Treasurer Jordan says politics are too much in a mess for the election to have any great significance. The only significant thing is the Democrat ic succes in Minnesota. In this he says, they break through the line into the place where their victories are to extend. Chief Clerk Youmans thinks the ad ministration can afford to be satisfied with the gains in Massachusetts, Min nesota, Nebraska and Colorado and the vote in New York. And this is the opinion of all administration Dem ocrats and Republicans with whom 1 have conversed. It is a clear, strong view of the matter. From an interview in to-day's Post I gather the following as the expres sion of Assistant Attornev General Jenks : "They don't forget," said Mr. Jenks, "but in the past platforms and Eromises have always been made to e violated and broken, and no doubt many of , the politicians thought that the platform and the promises of 1884 were of the same kind and made for the same purpose. But if all the offices in the civil service were turned over to the Democrats at one sweep. there would still be nearly as many disgruntled Democrats as now, for even then all the Democrats who think they are entitled to recognition could not be accommodated, and every man disappointed would be an agent of dis content. When the Republicans had the patronage of the Government at their disposal they had the same trou ble. It is simply impossible to dis pense patronage to the satisfaction of politician's. The only way to be with out enemies is to be without patron age. Democrats have been opposed in the elections not because patronage was sparingly or judiciously or un fairly dispensed, but because for the time they belong to the unfortunate party in power. In this regard it is a great misfortune to a man to be in power. A man who has no fayors to give makes no enemies by giving them; but you cannot bestow favors on the few without making enemies of the many who expect them and are disappointed." Postmaster General Vilas, General Bryant, the Assistant Attorney Gen eral of the Postoffice Department, and Chief Clerk Nash have returned from Wisconsin where they rent to vote. The President will leave for Boston and Harvard to-morrow afternoon? He will be accompanied by Secretaries Bayard, Whitney and Lamar. . They will reach Boston on Monday morning at an early hour. After attendincr all the ceremonies of the University, they will leave on the 10:30 train at nigrht and return to Washington Tuesday night. Mrs. Cleveland with Secretary and Mrs. Endicott, went to New York last night and to Boston to-day. They will all be in .Boston together Monday. About halt-past twelve o'clock yes terday a sharp earthquake was felt here. Clerks in the War Department saw the desks sway back and forth One or them told me it was the worst of the several shocks he has felt this year. The President on yesterday appoint ed George W. Baxter, of Wyoming, to be Governor or that Territory. Assistant Secretary Fairchild still signs the Treasury mail as if Secre tary. It is a very laborious under taking to which Mr. Manning is not yet equal. Gossip has it that if Mr. Carlisle had failed of election, the President would have been asked to appoint Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, to the Turkish mission, so tnat a vacancy might have been created to provide another way to Congress tor Mr. Car lisle. But Mr. Morrison is now men tioned as a good man to be Minister Plenipotentiary and Envoy Extraor dinary to Turkey, in the place of S. S. Cox, who comes to Congress possibly to succeed Mr. Morrison as leader of the Democratic party in the House. The work of clearing the library site besran yesterday.
