'h'kAViuson Advance i'A C. C. haiils, El-ton nd Propritkri "WHAT IS INVOLVED?.- ;:.. Ahe Republicans always en endeavor to place the Dem ocrats in a defensive position, because they know full well that they cannot defend their own conduct when in power and their work when endeavor ing1 to regain power. They be gin each campaign by charging the Democratic party of the Elate with arousing the preju dices of , the white people r iralnst the negroes. They charge us with "drawing the color line" and winning our victories by means Of the evil paaaions that are thereby rais ed against the ignorant negroes. The color line is undoubtedly drawn in every campaign, and we confess, with pride, that we have done all the pulling we could do on eur end of the line, since we have known anything of politics. We recognize - the fact that the Republican party is composed of negroes and a few white men, who have bar tered almost their sou-is salva vation for a few loaves "and fishes ; with an occasional 'de cent white man, who is mista ken and has championed a bad cause through "poor judgement, but who are honest and sincere. This latter r class, exerta very j little influence upon the course of the party in North Carolina. The contral of the party is with the political Judases who al ways handle the bag. They dic tate its policy and ; monopolize the ofilces that theyodo secdre. The negroes are m re tools in their hands, but they are kept as tools by drawing this same color line that the radicals de nounce so bitterly in Demo crats. The poor ignorant blacks are bulldozed And frightened until many of them fear for their lives if they do otherwise than vote the Republican tick et. Their church relations (the strongest tie of a negro,) social enjoyment and their physical safety depends upon their sub jection to the negro preachers, who are almost invariably the paid agents of the white inen who run the politics of the Radical party. When such is the case can any one blame a man in whose veins pure Anglo-Saxon blood flows, for urg ing white men to stand shoul der to Bhoulder against this un holy combination of rascals and negroes? We say no, and the man wno would aid those ene mies of the white race, these . 1 111 1 A . . punucai iraaers DacKed by a mass, of blackness and igno rance and credulity to traduce and draz in the dust th host interests of the people of North Carolina, needs a large measure of self respect because h Tin. ft 'corner on- respecting , hinv- BBil. - TTT . . .

We Shall flirthTnnr nnll upon our end of the 'color line' jusi as long as the Radicals puux)n tneirs and the negroes present a solid front. So long as me present tispect of the two parties is presented, bo long win wnite men be urged and expected to stand together. "If this be treason, make the most of it." WIIEEE DO YOU STAND. The Advance recognizes the fact that the approaching cam paign will be one of the most hotly contested ever fought in this State, and for that reason we have begun so early to write of politics. It is neces sary that the political deeds of the Democratic party should be fairly and and Impartially presented to the people, rhe medium through which this is effected is, of course, the press. We believe that a great major ity of the newspapers of the State are conducted by honest, square Democrats. These news papers do an incalculable amount of earnest and effective work for the Democratic party. It is in the power of every newspaper to weild a large in fluence and accomplish much n organizing the party. Be cause of the possibilities of the press, we should be exceeding ly careiui now we exert our Influence. .-. : In the last issue of the Wash ingcon irogress we notice a long communication that'goes for Gov. Jarvis and the Demo cratic party for building the Governors residence in Rait igh The Progress endorses the ar iclelnaa editorial and eivefc uue democratic party, a very well . delivered back-handed licit at the eame time. ' We believe that it would have been better had the Gov ernore residence never . been commenced. We believe it was , a mistake to undertake to build so large and elegant a structure "X XT 1. 1 1 . . miewe Deneveall this, we zeei tnat the effort of the Pro gress to injure the Democratic party by editorially endorsing charges that are made with no other intent or design than to make campaign capital for the enemies of good government, buows the Progress to be an ally of the Republican party And yet wo should not be sur prised at this, for the senior editor of the paper is an old fashioned Republican and his object in 'buying an interest in the Progress that had former ly doue valiant service for the Democratic party was doubt less to saturate the apparently Democratic columns of. the pi per, with Radicalism. We hope the Progress ; will declare itself unequivocally for either the Democratic or Re publican parties. If It is a Republican eheet believes in negro supremacy and Radical i corruption and thef t, .letit say so. If it is a Democratic paper and proposes to aid the Demo cratic party to retain control of the government in the State, let it say so and criticise the acts of of the party whether undertaken under Jarvis or some one else, from the stand point of a friend. Where do you stand? THE EKIGHTS OF LABOB.- The Advance has had some thing to say about the Knights of Labor in the State and in the county during the past few weeKS. w e have said what we be lieved should be said, both for the good of the Democratic party and the Knights of La bor. We recognize the fact that a few office seeking politi cal tricksters are endeavoring to prostitute the order to their own personal ends, and we en deavored to warn the Demo cratic members of the organiza tion, not against the order, but against the wolves who are , en deavoring to masauerade as in nocent sheep. A few of these wolves have- entered the - fold and propose to devour it. so to speak. We repeat, it was against 'these not against the Knights or .Labor that we spoke. A large majority of the white mnrnhflrn nf Ka are Democrats; and the sophis try and deception oi the Radi cal self appointed leaders will not be able to capture manv of these white men. They- are- many of them "fire tried" Democrats and will not be de ceived and iniuced to "throw party fealty to the winds" .and vote for men whose oh1et i4 tn disrupt and disorganize the Democratic nartv. We know gome of them and we ' have full confidence in them both as men and Democrats. There will be found amoner the most earnest and active Demo crats, in the approaching cam many members of the Knights of Labor.1 ! EE NOT DECEIVED. " The Hickory Press-Carblin- ianoffer3 a sensible word of warning to the Democratic nar- tyIt warns us against under estimating the brains of the Kepublican party. There are many men in the ranks of Rad icalism who are shrewd, sharp and posessed of much more than the average amount of "mother wit." Several of the brightest and brainest men that the State has, . are to be found numbered among th radicals of the State. They have brains, but most of Jthem are entirely devoid of principle - of character. It was because of this utter absence of char acter that they were never hon ored by the Democratic party ana tnat m most cases ac counts for their presence in the Republican party." It will nev er do for us to look upon the enemy as a set of blockheads. While the great bodv of the party are too ignorant and know too. utile to originate or purse cute any camDaifirn. the Wdara are a sharp, shrewd, unscrupu lous set of rascals. Let us re cognize their , ability and be thereby the better prepared to meet ana vanquish them.

There is such scarcity of news here that it is not an easy thing to obtain subject matter for an interesting letter o the readers of the Advance. Business is fair politics are beginning to stir farmers are busy, but the people are behaving themselves so well in the ordinary way that they offer no occasion, for us to write in, eulogy or cen sure. . r I often hear good men com plain that the newspapers are too full of accounts of crime, and have too little to say upon ettricil and religious subjects. This is partly a fair and just critict$m but only partially so. A newspaper cannot "be, to quote Cowper, "a map of busy life." It must publish what the world is doing. If bankers skip to Canada the papers - must print. the fact. If the Congress man abuses the trust -committed to him the papers must tell it. If a Senator gets a di vorce from his wife the news papers cannot be suppressed. A newspaper cannot omit the record of either the bad or the good, if he will print an ac curate history of each day. It Would be wrong to omit the bad,, for as Merriam puts it, "It is the parallel in the volume of Fact to the dark chapter head ed Sin in -the volume of Philos ophy." ' j The bad necessarily predom inates in the colums of a news paper. For example: If one cash ier embezzles it demands a para graph; but the lifelong honesty of a thousand cashiers calls for no public notice. i This is true, and it is unjust to indulge in harsh criticism because an editor inserts ac counts of crimes. But it ia not only not unjust, but eminently right to criticise that editor severely who gives the chief place in his paper to murders, scandals and the like. He must print the deeds of the -day no man ought to object to that. Objection does lie and is prop er, if the editor makes- sensa tionalism his chief aim and panders to the degraded love that prompts a perusal of all the crimes that wicked n en and women engage in. Here the distinction ought to be drawn, and I would like for the readers of the Advance, at least, to draw it. 'I ' ' - ";- J Gov. Scales who attended the Oyster Fair at New Berne last week tells us that he enjoyed Jt greatly. . He says that the Bxl.ibit surprised most DeoDle and that they embraced every thing usually seen at a fair. The display was a novel one, and was the second Fish and iOyster Fair ever held in the States. The Governor, during ms absence, also visited More head and inspected the work done on the A. & N. C. R.

The remembrance of the out rages ana oppressions heaped upon our people by the Repub. lican party, when in power in North Carolina, surely ought to deter any white man from now aiding that party to regain its control of the State.

To the Edftor ' of the Sign board : It is not at all likely that the Senate bill providing ror erection ct post office build ings in size afid cost proportion ate to the sizfe of the place will ever become? a law. The bill is the outconfe of a large num ber ot bills wnich have passed the House this session for nnh. i lie buildingspbut even the Sen ators see, so fnany object ions to the proposed, plan that the ex pression is all against its Das- sage. So largfe a number of bills for public buildings could not have passed ihe Hcnse but for the fact of trie la run siirnlns in the Treasury! and the reduction of revenues j that will follow upon the paissage ot the tariff bill. The members see that now or never is the time to get their public j buildings, and so the golden opportunity ia taken and the buildings go up. Senator'Vest is very much worried oveij the widely circu lated rumor ithat he intends not to accept another election as Senator and will retire from politics. The Senator has no such intentions and will accept a reejection! unless he be ap pointed to a Cabinet position und-3r Cleveland's second ad ministration. The latter is not at all impossible as the Senator stands very -high in the estima tion of the I President and he, as well as the State of Missouri may be honored by the bestow ment of a Cabinet position ou the able Senator. : ' J The Senate ia up in arms against the! claim atents and an investigation has been ordered into the- ways and means de vised by sdme of them to work up the business. Some of the Senatois complain that they are in frequent receipt of let ters from constituents transmit ting letters' from "Pension Agents urging the soldiers to appeal to Congress for relief, and saying that now is the time, as on the eve of the Presiden tial election both parties in Congress will by iavorable leg islation seek to get the soldiers vote. The Sepatora are Indig nant that it should be even in sinuated Ithat they are influ enced by Juch motives and the investigation into the methods of' one of" the claim agents whose circulars have been laregtly circulated, will result in such a report and action that others will De deterred from pursuing the same meth ods. -.If. , Senator' Colquitt Laa intro duced a bill to submit to the DODUlar VOte of the ' nennlo in the District whether we shall have prohibition or not. While it is probable that the prohibi tionists "would carry the elec tion, still there is not the slightest probability of the bill passing Congress, at least at this session. It has been intro duced too late in the session to receive consideration in the House even though it should pass the Senate. The divisions amons- the Tic. publicans' in the House on the Internal Revenue question has caused great doubt as to con cert of.action between the Re publican when the subject comes up for consideration he fore the full house. The vote in Committee on the abolition of the tobacco tax was looked upon as- a test vote and the vote or Kelly and Reed for t.h nhru lition and the other two Re publican .Burrows and Brown against it, 'is in the House regarded; very, significant.

The reason of of that is we suppose th natural increase of business. It does not apper to us that t.h law effected any great deal one way or the other. Nevertheless we believe it has done some gooa ana we believe it can be made to accomplish a greater amount.

The convention will re affirm its Retried nnlinv unrl Haror. tnmation to reduce the burdens of toe present high tariff under which the country now languishes. - The Republicans meet at Chic ago Juue 19th to nominate a ticket lot Mr. Cleveland to beat. Since Blaine's letter saying that he was not a candidate for the nomination the nartv ia at Ken, wlf.hnnt-. a rnrM- er if he meant what he said.

If Blaine is out of the field there is no one man on whom the nartv will decide as the strongest man. We expect tbey will Anally harmonize by nominating the "Plumed Knight" notwithstanding his letter. The convention in which oar people take most interest is the Democratic State Convention which meets in Raleirh Mav SOth.

Tae contest appears to be between Liifut. uov. bteaaman and Judge Walter Clarke, with Gov. Stedmao in the lead. Jnd?e Fnwle ha ra. contly developed some strength, his friends claim, while Capt. Sid saucier has a good following. Ahuost nothing has been said about the nominee for Lient. Gov ernor. Mai. S. M. Fineer. Theo. Davidson. Donald W. Rain and Col. W. L.

' Mclver are all prominently mentioned for the office, while Mr. X B. Broughton could go in the convention well backed if he would. A good strong ticket will be nomi nated, K-e feel sure. The Republicans bold their State Convention at Raleigh on the 23rd of-May one week before the Dem ocratic convention. The probabili ties are that Oliver H. Dockbry will be the nominee for Governor, while we doubt not but that our countyman. Col. G. W. Stanton would be willing to accent a nlara on the ticket if be can get it. w no ine probabilities for the dift IV rent offices are we have nor heard, but the Kadn will nnt their "best foot forward," jou may de- eiiu on.
