In our i.viie ef Octubci 27' h we
charged Mr. Bowers with having voted
while ia the Senate aain.-t the appropria
tion fur the Oxford Orphan Asylum.
Mr. Bowers reijuests us to slate his posi
tion ou that question, uiorc fully. He
says he does not object tu f.'ivini; the mon
ey to the orphans, hut thinks it should
be retained in control of the State and
not given to a private institution, because
as Ion-; as it wai ilven to one others
mi;ht justly ciaini help also. Mr. Bow.
ers at the last session of the Legislature
introduced a resolution to raise a coiuinit
tce to iuipiire into the needs of
the orphans in the State ami if a Statu
Orphan Asylum was needed to report
plans lor buildini; and supportiusiit. The
rcsolu.ii.il passed the Senate hut was lost
in the llouie. No one believes Mr.
Bowers is unwilling to aid the destitute
orphans in the State, and furthur discus
sion of the (jueiiun at this time is need
less. Ox the 4th of March, lSDIS, twenty
five seats in the United States Senate be
come vacant. The control of these cen
atorial vacancies was at stake in the recent
presidential election, and it is now evi
dent that the Democratic party has cap
tured enouiih of the vacancies to insure
its supremacy in the Senate, regardless
of almost any possible combination be
tween the Republicans and l'opulists.
Assuming that Montana, California, and
Wyoming will scud Democratic senators
here, as indicated by the Associated
,press dispatches, the Democrats at the
beginning of the Fifty third Congress
would have as many senators as the Re
publicans and l'opulists combined, aud
thus wou'd be able to organize the Sen
ate by thi' easting vote of Vice I'resident
elcet Stevenson. It is reasonably certain
hiwever, that the Democrats can rely on
t he support of some of the 1'opulist sena
tors in any of their projects, whether for
the removal of the present force of Re
publican employees or the revision of the
tariff. ( If the twenty-five senatorial seats
vacant March 4, lS'.Ki, the Democrats are
occupants of thirteen, the Republicans of
nine, and the Populists of three, one be
ing Senator Stewart, of Nevada, who has
flopped from the Republican party into
the silver party. The Democrats losu no
seat they now hold aud gain five front
the Republicans one each in California,
Montana, New York, Wiscosin and Wyo
ming. The l'opulists gain senators from
the Republican in Kansas and Nebras
ka, besides Senator Stewart, in Nevada,
who will succeed himself.
Sonic doubt still surrounds the com
plexiun uf the legislature iu California,
Montana, Wyoming, aud Nebraska, but
late returns all say that the Democrats
have gained the legislatures in the hist
three named Suites aud the l'opulists in
the last one.

We could only give a part of the re
suit of the election last week because the
n turns were not all in when we went to
press. The general result is now known.
The remarkable change m Illinois, i.
consin, Ohio and California to the Demo
cracy is surprising. Ohio and California
were not even thought of as b'.'ing possi
bly doubtful, and the National committee
made no light in those States. Weave!
carried Colorado, Nebiaska, Kansas,
Nevada and South Dakota, which gives
hiiu twenty-live electoral vutrs. Mr.
Cleveland has three hundred and three
vutes in theeleetoial College.
The causes for this great revolution
are the force bill and the protective
tat iff. The Republican party was com
mitttd to both aud appealed to the
people to sustiin it. The people
refused to endorse either and put the
Democrats in power. Legislation for the
rich against the poor and bayonets at the
polls are not wanted any longer by the
Amei lean people and the rebuke admin
istered to the Republican party is un
mistakable and las iug.
In North Carolina these causes operated
greatly, but iu this State as iu other
Southern States there was another reason.
The people of North Carolina would not
have the administration of its affairs
placed in the hands of an oath bound
organization which showed during the
campaign how utterly disiegardful it
could be of the welfare of the people aad
of the State by its deliberate violation of
law, Gideon's band and similar organi
zations can find no place in North Caro
lina politics. The leaders of Gideonites
appeared willing to sacrifice any and
everything for their own advantage
even the very men whom it tiled to
control, and whom they would have
controlled without their knowledge had
not its existence been exposed by men
who loved the State and fair play.
For those who were deceived iu this
way there should be no word of reproach.
They were honest and being honest be
lieved in the honesty of the men whom
they followed. Their eyes have been
opened in a way, fortunately for them and
all of us, which caunot be injurious.
They were taught to distrust those who
differed with them aud to believe that
the old time leaders were false. They
will soon have an opportunity to see
more clearly than they now do that they
were simply tools in the hands of men who
were liuing their own pockjts with Re
publican money. These leaders will
retire to private life to enjoy their ill
gotten gains and the people whom they
deceived and used will address themselves
hereafter to the real needs of the country
in a manner which will in due time bear
good fruit.
We have been through a long and exel.
ting campaign. The excitement was
there though it was suppressed. The
dark cloud of the Force bill bung over
our people and' they recognized the
trouble aud calamity which would have
followed the success of the party that
advocated that odious measure. Such
immiuent danger must necessarily strain'
the nerves of all good citizens to their
utmost tension. This made the campaign
just closed one of the most important ever
conducted iu North Carolina. For these
reasons there might have been considera
ble bitterness, but we ate glad to say that
with very few exceptions, if any, on tfio
part of the Democrats there has beeu
neither abuse uor recrimination and there
is little cause for soreness. We most
earnestly hope that this name spirit of
forbearance and kiudly cousideralion will
actuate men everywhere hereafter as was
displayed during the campaign, because
we ought to recognize the fact that un
Aimrieuu citizen has a right to his own
opinions in politics aud to act upon it,
providi d t lint iu doing so he does not
infinite upon l lie rights of others.
I I he h'hi is over, Dt mm l acy has been
j auccesslul all along the line, aud it is
j time now to forget the uificrences which
I divided men during the battle and pursti-t
our several ways in peace and harmony
ns neighbors and friends. We are all
more or less dependent upon each other
in some way or other and we should
recogniz ; this fact in a manner that will
make us all more lieljifiil of each other.

" Early In isso I went to Chicago to visit a

pressed with the success of tills medicine that
I decided to try It. To my great gratification
the sores soon decreased, and I began to feel
better and in a short time I was up and
