Those men in eastern North Carolina
who favor the Third party should re
member that others of their interests are
at stake as well as those formulated by
the St. Louis platform; and that while
' bending all their energies to procure the
advancement of the St. Louis demands
they may lose sight of and" throw away
certain necessary things, the loss of which
would render nugatory any advantages
that might otherwise accrue from the
enactment of the St. Louis demands into
law.
' It is generally admitted everywhere
that local self-government is of paramount
' importance, that without it no other
measure can be of much benefit. The
people of Eastern Carolina have had the
strongest and bitterest proof of the truth
i of this fact. For years they labored and
: suffered nnder an irresponsible govern-
s. jaent, and while they have again secured
control of their local affairs they have not
forgotten the dark days that accompanied
the misrule inaugurated in 1868. They
' well remember the utter rotteaness of
, the regime of that period, and they want
no repetition of it.
But if they neglect everything but the
8t. Louis demands; if, in their zeal to
incorporate these demands into the law
of the land, they abandon their own local
self government, and put their liberties
and their property again under the control
of ignorant and unreliable men they will
lave themselves only to blame for it;
they alone will be responsible.
That the west has been restive under
the prevailing system is well . known.
The people of the west have submitted (
it against their wishes as a matter of
absolute necessity to the east. But if tbe
east become careless and indifferent about
it does the east suppose that the west will
still agree to it ? If the west sees that
the east is willing to sacrifice this system,
. . . for whatever purpose, will the west con
tinue to live under it?
Let tit west answer for itself. Indeed
it liaa already indicated its purpose.

This Hou-m of tteprweuiatives has
passed the bill putting wool on the free
list. It is now tackling the bills to put
ou the free list bagia,' for cotton, ma
chinery for manufacturing bagging, cut-
ton ties and cotton gins.
The election in lUiodu Island on
Wednesday resulted io an increased Re
publican vote. The Republican candi
date for Governor was elected by a ma
jority of 229 while last year the candi
date did not get a majority but was
elected by the ' Legislature. A grand
fight was made by both parties. We
hope Mr. Cleveland's friends will remem
ber that hu made a speech in Rhode
Island and the Democratic oonreation
had instructed its delegates to vote for
him io the National convention.
And now ihu Mugwumps any that
Hill defeated the Democratic ticket in
Rhode Island. This is a high tribute to
the Senator's power. We do not believe
this mugwump element which is apparent
ly so determined to nominate Mr. Clove
land, has any idea that that gentleman
will be nominated. They want Hill de
feated because if he is nominated and
elected they will be relegated to the rear
where they belong and not be allowed to
dictate the policy of the Democratic par
ty with which they are only in sham sym
pathy. The bolters' movement in New
York is not in the interest of tbe Democ
racy but solely of the bolters themselves.
HILL AND CLEVELAND.
The fight is over in Rhode Island, and
Cleveland, the man who is going to bring
Little Rhody and Massachusetts ibto the
Democratic column, went to Providence,
took command, issued his orders, went
through the same old sterotyped speech
on free raw material fur the Yankee
which be says is the only issue before the
American people.
Well, since the smoke and dust of the
battle has cleared away Little Rbody is
more solidly Republican than ever. The
Republican candidate for Governor beat
the Democratic candidate about two
thousand votes au increased plurality
over the last election for the Republicans.
So instead of changing the political com
plexion of Rhode Island he has made it
more Republican.
This favorite of all thebanks, boards
of trr.de, bondholders, gold bugs, corpor
ations and wealth in general, ' is very
strong with all Republicans and in Re
publican States, but is not strong enough
to carry the smallest Republican State in
the Union for the Democratic ticket. All
his admirers fully expected bis voice, bis
p.esence, and bis great influence would
change the political complexion of the
State, and more than three thousand
boomerangs had been carefully prepared
to overwhelm the Democracy and drive
it to his support. But Io and behold! in
stead of these beautiful pencgerics meet
ing the eyes of the American people, a
thousand and one excuses are given why
Rhode Island did not wheel into tbe
Democratic oolumn.
Well the truth is, neither Cleveland
nor any other Democrat can carry either
of the five New England States. Demo
cratic in a presidential contest. . Neither
Cleveland nor any other Democrat can
carry Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Wis
consin, Iowa, Michigan or any other
Western State except Montana in a (res
idential contest. Yet these Republican
States propose to combine with the boltei s
and conditional Democrat of New York
and the mouied influence of some of the
Southern States and dictate the nominee
of the Chicago convention.
New York, Indiana, New Jersey, Con
necticut, and the South, with Montana
will be the only States that will cast their
electoral vote for the Democratic mmiiuee,
and those States ought to oootrol in the
nominating convention. If their will is
regarded we shall have a Dciuoviatio
President, if not, we shall have a Repub
lican President,
Hill's message to the New York len-
telature, during the pendency of the in
famous force bill intended to degrade and
humiliate the South, io which he declared
he would veto any bill appropriating
money to the World's Fair, unless tbe
measure was defeated and the South saved

Now lake the truthful records of Mr.

any Southern man shauld prefer Cleve

a Ueuiocratio standpoint, however true
flow a Republican stand point?
But it has been the policy of the South
to love its enemies aad puni-.ii its friends,
and Grover Clevelaud cairied out that
policy to perfection when president and
pledges his honor to do likewise if given
another chance. All the mouey lords
and kings of tbo land, all the great busi
ness firms aud money lenders are booming
Cleveland for the Democratic presiden
tial candidate, regardless of party. In
fact and iu truth his utrongcit boomtrs
are mugwumps, conditional Democrats
and straiuhtout Republicans. Whenever
you find an intelligent Republican you
lied a strong advocate of Cleveland, and
yet not one will vote for him.
This fact alone oiii.hr to open tho eyes
of Democrats. But somo auirunls do
not open their eyes under nine days after
birth, and somo, never,
The fact that all the Rcpuhlic&us in
the United States hate II ill worse than
the devil hates Holy wutcr ought to tech
sensible men a leson, but somo people
never learn anything.
The writer Lever saw Hill, but lov.s

He has never been weighed and found
wanting. He has won every battle, de
feated his foo every time. He has done
for the Democracy of tbe country what
no other Democrat has done or could do
and if permitted will make this coun
try Democratic for twenty-five years to
come.
If Cleveland is nominated at Chicago
I will wager five thousand dollars he will
not carry North Carolina. Secondly,
will wager five thousand dollars he will
not carry New York; thirdly, I will wager
five thousand dollars that he will be de
feated as president and will bury tbe
Democratic party in his defeat so deep
tnat tbe band ot resurrection will never
reach it. This is the size of mv pile all
told, or I would wager fifty times as
much. W. H.K.
The Rev. Robert Clark, a colored man
of Beaufort county, seventy-six years old
is said to posseas the gift of prophecy
He predicted the cloe of the war aod
the day of Lee's surrender; he predicted
the earthquake in Italy and in Charles
ton and now he predicts that a new po
litical party will eeud consternation into
the old parties, that this new party will
flourish for a while but will then die
He also says there will be destructive
earthquakes iu some parts of the world,
cyclones and whirlwinds in this country
spreading death aud destruction in their
paths.

-"Almost Miraculous."
" When I was 14 years ot age I had a severe
attack of rheumatism, and after I recovered
had to go on crutches. A year later, scrofula.
In the form ot white swellings, appeared on
various parts ot my body, and for 11 years I
was an Invalid, being confined to iny bed
years. In that tirao ten or eleven lores ap
peared and broke, causing me great pain and
suffering. I feared I never should get welL
" Early In 1886 1 went to Chicago to visit a
sister, but was confined to my bed most ot the
time I was there. Id July I read a book, ' A
Day with a Circus,' In which were statements
of eures by Hood's 8arsaparilla. I was so Im
pressed with the success ot this medicine that
I decided to try It. To my great gratification
the sores soon decreased, and I began to teel
better and In a short time I was up and
out ot doors. I continued to take Hood's Sar
saparilla for about a year, when, having used
Ix bottles, I had become so fully released
from the disease that I went to work for the
Flint ft Walling Mfg. Co., and since then
' BAVC XOT LOST A SINOU DAT
on account of sickness. I believe the disease
Is eipelled from my svsUtm, I always feel well,
am la good spirits and hare a good appetite.
I am now H years of age and can walk aa well
aa any one, except that one limb la a little
shorter than the other, owing to the loss of
bone, and tbe sores formerly ou my right leg.
To my friends my recovery seems almost
miraculous, and I think Hood's Saraaparllla
Is the king of medicines." William A.
