Why chano and put jn power a party that has raised no real issue? 1 If the Third party county ticket be elected what will it do for the people cf the county? Draw the salaries and take the fees from thu people allowed by law. The registration books close Saturday at twelve o'clock, after which timo do one san register unless lie become of ago after that date, 13c sure your name is properly registered and then be sure to vote the Democratic ticket. When a Republican votes for the Third parly candidates in Halifax coun ty or in the State ho is voting for men who profess to be as good Democrats as they have ever been. Where, then, is the advantage for the Republican ? In State and National matters the fight is between Democracy and Repub licanism. The records of the two partieB are before you. There can be no hesita tion in your choice, if you know what good government is and want the genuine article. There is said to be a secret colored organization in Ohio eight thousand strong and growing every day, whose purpose it is to defeat the Republican party. The press seems to ' be panic stricken at the news, and the Philadel phia Press says there is likely to be worse behind. The issue in Halifax county is between the Democrats and the Third party. You know the record of the Democratic party. What does the Third party promise in case of success ? Nothing. The burden of their campaign has been denunciation of the Democrats, but they do not and cannot offer any improvement in the State government. When a political party is organized in order to get tho support of the people it should offer some measure of government which will be beneficial to the( people. What measure of State and county policy does the People's party offer ? None in the world. The candidates, if elected, would get the fees and salaries and the people would have to pay them. That is The Third party believes in cutting down the rate of taxation. If they should control the Legislature and do so what would become of the insiitutionsfor both white and colored people the schools, the asylums for the insane and the deaf and dumb, tho Agricultural and Mechan ical colleges which the Democrats have established for both races alike? That is a question that concerns every voter, Mrs. Benjamin Harrison died Tuesday morning at 1:43 o'clock in the White House, aged sixty years, of' ton- sumption, brought on by an attack of grip she suffered from in the winter of 1890-91. : . ' Mrs. Harrison was a model wife and' mother, and indeed in every way a most estimable woman. Her death, especially at this time, will cause everybody to pause in the heat of the political campaign to offer silent sympathy for the man- upon whom this great grief has fallen, for in the bouse deso'-ite 1 by sorrow not even the bitterest puiisan would wish to oarry his political hostility. Death touches a chord to which humanity in every poaso and under every circumstance will re spond, and Mr. Harrison ha tho hearty sympathy of the people, be they Demo crats or Republicans. Not by any means the least enjoyable features of the fair will bo the bop and German' at the Atlantic Coast Line hotel. Tho music will be by the celebrated Richmoud band. The mother of Rev. Robert Fulton. Crary, of Puughkeeple, N. Y., is the only surviving child of Robert Fulunjihe inventor of the steamboat. . t I Tho tax payers of North Oaiolina can not better serve their interests, which means the interest of their State, than by earnestly interesting themselves in the electiou of 1 Democratic legislature this year. The Republicans arc making a spcciul effort in every oounty to defeat tho Dem ocratic candidates, and they will form any combination that promises such de feat. It will be too late, after losing the legislature, to regret that a greater effort was not made to secure it. Those who have not timo to participate in the campaign can materially aid in furtheting the Democratic cause by sub stantially recognizing the fact that it re quires moans to place within tho reach of voters the literature that will truthfully inform them of the political situation. If the republicans should elect a major ity representing their views, or under ob ligations to them, there is not a tax payer in the whole State who will not be made to feel very soon, after the next legisla ture assembles that his burden of taxes has been increased. The seal of our State will again be placed upon bonds to be sold in Wall streot at ruinous rates of discount, and a lost credit and, then, bankruptcy will follow us in 18G9-90. The credit of North Carolina stands as the credit of any State in the Union, which is due to the rule of the Demo cratic party, for no one can doubt that Democratic policy has governed the State since 1870, and that it succeeded the ascendency of Republican policy, which had destroyed the-credit of the State. Can any good citizjn, therefore, remain indifferent to the efforts of the republican party to again direct the policy and ad minister the a Hairs of North Carolina? The record of this party and its aims prove its corruption and warn against it. Besides, are our pooplo prepared to havo the social fabric shaken by repealing and cnactipg statutes that it retire effi cient and capable men from the race of, prefeiment and open it only to the in competent and corrupt? If tho system ol internal government, specially the system of county govern ment, now obtaining in the Stato is re pealed, and it is tho declared policy of the republican party to repeal it, it is not easy to conjecturo the class of men who will soon become county commissioners and justices of the peace? Such as filled these positiow in 1SC3-70 will be re called, and it will it qui re another tweuty- five years to free the 3 tuts from debt, and vindicate her financial honor, after having been plundered by a ne,v genera tion ot thieving scallawags and ca;pet baggers.

Nito Yurie World. Henry C. C. Astwood, an active Re publican all his life, for eight years Con sul General to San Domiugo, and one of the best known and most prominent col ored men in the country, has como to Now York to stump tho Stato for Clove land. He is a forcible and eloquent speaker and gives many excellent reasons why he has deserted the Republican party and joined issues with the Dem ocrats. "I was born and educated in tho West Indies," he said yesterday, "and never was a slave. I came to this country after the war and settled in Louisiana, where I taught school. In 1876 Mr. Leonard, of Lake Providence, undertook to ruu for Congress. We had the Force bill in vogue then. "On the face of the roturns the Dem ocrats carried the district, but I suggested to the Republicans a plan by which Ouchita might be counted out. This was adopted aud tho parishes were counted for Hayes.' I begged the com mittee then to do something for my race. They informed me that the Govern ment had decided to withdraw the troops from the South, and advised that the col ored people make friends with the whites and get along as peaeeably as possible. Since then I have continued to think that the best thing the black man could pos sibly do was to make friends with the white folk. "Cleveland camo in and we had fewer conflicts than ever. It was the best ad ministration for the colored race we have ever known. "Hairison got into his head an ambi tion for re election, and he began to pla cate the negro voters by giviDg them offices and making them delegates to the National Convention. I refused to have anything to do with his machine schemes, aud favored the nomination of Blaine, "I firmly believe that Cleveland will be elected, and I look upon his election as the salvation of the colored race. Look iug at it from a commercial and business standpoint, I think Mr. Cleveland's views ou the tariff the best for this country. HOW DO YOU LIKE IT. The National Republican, a Radical newspaper published in ' Washington, D, C-, has this to say : "With the Lodge National Election law in full force over the South aud va rious Democratic strongholds up North we may confidently look for a different stato of political affairs than now exists, New Yolk city will then return several mom. Republican Congressmen than present, whilo more than twenty negro representative from the South will render the Republican co'ntral of the future Congress absolutely safe and secure, "Heavy taxes should be laid upon the property of the whites to. develop and extend the public school systems of these States. Separate schools for the two races should be abolished, and the pla of bringing the youth of both colors into an equal. relation in schools aud church esuivou a fair trial, nson of thu most potent elements to break down the detes table Bourbouitm of the South.

Ceunlno ha' trade-intuit mi (.-tutted rod hwt on wrappen THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG. National Democrat. Waslunqton, D. C. The Philadelphia Press, edited by one of Mr. Harrison's closest friends, Mr. Emory Smith, his late Minister to Rus sia, has tho courage to say plainly what all observant men have known all the me, viz., that it is the purpose and pol icy of tho Republican party to enact a force bill. But the Press is frank enough to urge a reason for it beyond mero polit ical power, and declares that to pass the Lodge election bill is to destroy the dan gerous competition that Southern pros- erity erects against New England cotton goods and Pennsylvania iron. Or, in other words the real down-right Republican North seeks to overwhelm the South with auother ruin, after the South has so far risen from the ashes of war to compete with the nortl.un States in commerce and manufacture. If a single man or woman iu the South ever had any doubt about the fiendish intentions of the Radicals let the follow ing words of the Philadelphia Press set tle the doubt and determine tl. only way to avoid the destruction propo J for that section : "If the Democrats had never been al lowed to regain control of thcSt&'i'govern mentsot the South northern cut i ,l would never have embarked in the dexuopment of Southern coal aud iron; aud the surest and speediest way to put a stop to this ompetition from men who are our polit ical enemies as well as our commercial rivals is to curry through and enforce measures like the Lodge National election law." Mr. Smith is not only a Republican who nres the northern heart with a re. flection of burning Columbia and the general destruction of war, but he is also a business man who puts the proposed force bill in the front as a material ne cessity to ruthlessly destroy the progress of the South and utterly ruin it, because, forsooth, it completes with northorn in teiests. The most rabid secessionist never at tributed to the men like Ben Butler any thing so virulent and fiendish as this open declaration of the Radical organ. Mr. Smith, lato Minister to Russia, has learn ed the ancient barbarous methods of the Czars and added something to the devil try of Boss Reed and' such other malign spirits of the Republican party, from whom the destructive policy emanated. Mr. Smith did not carry a musket like a brave soldier, aud thereby learn to respect the southern people, as all the real soldiers did. He was ono of the flock of political kites that represented ill omen and hatred. After presenting a picture of the utter wreck of the South, he gloats over it in the following terms: "And if we can once more get them into the condition they were before 1876 we won't hear any more about cheap iron and cheap cotton goods from the South. They will have other things to thiuk about." . Thank you, Mr. Smith! Tho Democrats appreciate the picture, and there are cer tain things that they will think about now, and among others is the resolve to bring out the unanimous vote of the par ty which has lonji been in the majority and another is to cut from the study of monarchial customs in Russia all such Grand Old Party patriots as the editor ol the Philadelphia Press.
