' t KEfffff; - . . - - ... -. , -: (ADVERTISEMENT.) To the Colored People of New Hanover - - Connty. Whkrkas, Hon'. D. L. Russell in nis letter to the StateTLxecuti yeCom mittee of the Republican Party of North Carolina,declining the nom ination as Judge on the Supreme Court Bench, and recommending the withdrawal of tlie Republican State Ticket, which would result in the dismemberment of the Republican Party in the State, and VWhkrbaSj in the said letter to the Committee in his denunciation of -the character of onr race, he declares that the Jxegroes of the south are and, are no more. fit to govern than are, their bretliren in j African swamps or so many Mongo lians aumpea down from pagan Asia. 1 and ' . Whkrkas, for years the colored citizens of New': Hanover have been under the control of a system of bossism which has developed into a political tyranny; which is danger ousin its operation and revolting to our manhood and our sense of race pride, especially since Hon. "D. L. Russell has assumed the role of the Republican Moses to lead the Negro race into the land of promise, and Whkrkas. notwithstanding his declaration at Southport when pro secuting a Negro for larceny he de clared that "all Negroes are natural born thieves: they will steal six days in the week and go to church Sunday, pray and shoutr their sins off and retffrn to the bosom of their rae, honored and respected members;" therefore, we consider that the time has fully' come when as free American Citizens, we should rise in our might and the dignity of our manhood and throwoff the Yoke of Political Oppression. We deem it important in this con nection, to call your attention to some of the grievances resulting from the operation of.the above sys tem. A few white men, assuming .the control of the political affairs, spec ulate year after year and upon 3,000 negro votes, with the same degree of conscious self-rgihtousness as did the (other -kind of) slave holders be fore the war. v In 1886, in order to elect the sheriff. they made over 500 negroes vote the Democratic Ticket in this county. In 1870 they defeated Hon. O. H. Dockery for Congress by trading off a -large number of negro votes with Democrats, thereby electing Hon. A. M. jVftdrtell to Congress. In 1880,' by a bold and daring sys tem of speculation and trading with the Democrats, they elected Hon. R. K. Bryan to the State Senate a Democrat from , a Republican dis trict a 11 to save their Sheriff. In 1874, by trading off the negro votes 'with the Democrats, -they elected S. A. Ashe and Hon. C. W. McClammy to the State Legislature two Democrats from a large Re publican county all to save their Sheriff.' In 1884 they defeated Hon. O. H. Dockery, the Republican candidate for Congress, by withholding the Dockery ticket, and refusing to fur nish them when urged so to do, thereby electing Hon. R. T. Ben nett, a Democrat, to Congress all to save their Sheriff. In 1886,emboldened by the successj ful operation of their unscrupulous manipulation, and in utter "disre gard of the fundamental principles of Republicanism, they entered into an alliance with Democrats to abso lQtely deprive the negroes of New Hanover county of a representation in the State Legislature, by putting upon the ticket two white Republi cans and Hon. A. M- Waddell, a Democrat all to save their Sheriff. These indignities, insult and im position perpetrated ; from time to time upon our race by"a class of po litical overseers, whose influence, wealth and power ar6 the results of our contributive support and suf frages, stand unchallenged for in gratitude and inhumanity among any people in the civilized world. We therefore call upon each and every member of our race to sup port this effort, we are making to de feud our manhood, oqr liberties and our rights. Trusting upon the guid ance of a righteous God wjio will deliver his ipeople from oppression and controls the destinies of nations, We are your humble servants in defense of the, race, ; Jas. A.

Sanders, Albert Sanders Vance and McClammy n the Outlook Senator Vance and Representa tive McClammy have both been . in. terviewed as to the prospects, in North Carolina 'an en t the report that the State is to be flooded with "boodle." We find the following in the New York Herald'. ' Senator Zeb Vance, of North Caro lina, smiled . significantly to-day when told tha t the republicans were making an effort to carry the old North? State; " '- " ' "In the years," said the Senator, "when local differences arise, our vote drops off, and this encourages the Republicans to" think they can beat us the next time. North Caro Una however, is as safely Democratic as any Southern State, and our ma jority next autumn, will not fall far short of 15,000. if it does not greatly exceed it." Congressman McClammy, accord ing to the Evening Critic, . is equally confident. Said he: The Repub licans are going to put plenty of money into North Carolina this year, and I am glad of it. I'm pro gressive, and plenty of money in the State will make good times, but North Carolina will roll up from twenty to twenty-five thousand ma jority "for Cleveland and Thurman in November all the same." The Board of -Directors of the Seacoast R. R. have decide'd that there will be no more Sunday trains from this time until the regular an nual meeting of the company. The ltace Yesterday Afternoon.' The Little Joe came out ahead yesterday in the boat race on the river. The contest was witnessed by a larger number than usuaLof in terested' spectators. The winning boat made the distance in 16 mhv utes and 11 seconds. The Nestle was second, 10 minutes and 42 sec" onds, and the Leona came in in 10 minutes and 48 seconds. It was a spirited contest: Another race is announced for next Thursday after noon, over the same course. . Accident on the W. C. & A. It. JR. v ' At 6 o'clock this" morning the North-bound freight train on the W. C. & A. R. R. ran into the pas senger train bound North at a. point two miles South of Nichols, S. C, killing two colored tramps who were, stealing a ride on the freight and injuring two colored train hands, Moses Scott and Calvin Mc Rae, each, of whom had a leg broken. There was but one passenger hurt and that was a Mr. Hart, whose ankle was sprained. Eight freight cars loaded with lumber were broken up and the rear car of the passenger train was slightly damaged. " A work ing force was on the spot as soon as possible and the track was clear at 5 o'clock this afternoon. As soon as the news of the disas- - - -- . ter was received here a relief train was at once sent out. Drs. Love and Wood were on this train prepared to render all necessary surgical as sistance. : Mr. Walters, Capt. Divine andCapt. Dunn also went down to the scene of the accident on this train. The two injured train hands belong in this city and they t have been brought here and conveyed to their homes. Those Four Poor Polieemen. Editor Rkview: I notice from a morning paper that four policemen nave oeen quaranimeu anu sent out of the city because they were so in discreet and imprudent as to enter the cars and engage in chatting with parties from the fever district. Now, while all praise may be due Mayor Fowler for his vigilance and earnestness, yet in all honesty. I would ask: "What became of the cars in which came these passengers from the fever district? :as the luorning paper fails to tell our anx ious citizens whether they were quarantined or permitted to enter and remain in the city, was tnere any more danger of the disease spreading from the policemen than from the cars? If letters and papers in the United States mails have to be fumigated by the authorities to prevent their carrying-the seeds of the disease to qther localities is there not danger from upholstered cars in which for hours passengers from the fever-stricken district have ridden?
