THE Tvk INWARDNESS Oft'
J LI DUE nUUUinUH 'S AI"-
i- la the "good old days before the
war" a shrewd stratagem of necrro
mothers, when their offspring lapsed
into delinquencies, was to themselres,
administer castigation, amid the most
explosive demonstrations of suffering,
real or feigned, on the part of the ju
venile Africans. Quite likely -such
chastisement was accepted by the mas
tar as a full and satisfactory atone
ment, though it may well be doubted
if the Youthful aufferar pained at" all in
rf -. D
the number and severity of his stripe.
This artful device of the old time ne
gresses has been recalled to oar mem
ory by the comments of the Demo
cratic press on the action .of (3ov.
Jarvis in filling the late, Vacancy on
, the Supreme Bench. Thinking that,
nee uavia, ne wouia prooaoiy preier
that. they should smite him friendly,
they have cudgelled him with a hearty
good will, apparently, and without
any perceptible care that their precious
- balms, should not break his head.
They now disclose the mortifying fact
that the appointment which the ad
ministration organ, without any distent,
announced that both Jarvis and Bob
inson had, by a singular coincidence,
from the very first, designed fbrMerri
mon, was offered to Judge Schenck, the
paid attorney of the Richmond- and
Din ville Railroad, by Gov. Jarvis, the
besom friend and special car companion
ol Major Andrews, before the Iriends
oi, Judge Merrimon had even dreamt
of such a chance of shaking hands
across, the bloody chasm.. No wonder
it has been said by one recalling Man
king's similar experience, that the
governor mudt always coquet with po
tential nominees before making his ap
pointment. Well, well ! Perhaps sin
crity and truth-telling, like most other
things, comes by experience, and even
a governor cannot hope for perfection
without long practice. C
j: JUDGE FOWLE.
Ltroat ana crinvnun tn hnnrhnn "nn
tics keen" have ben the transgressions
- o ' T
of Judge Fowle for some time in the
past. Indeed, his political life . began
in an heretical connection with the old
Whig party. r Out of this - naturally
grew a most disloyal love of the Union,
which refused to find in the constitu
tion a league with hell and a covenant
with death. Secession, .with its prom'
lses oi a southern oligarchy, had no

amost as a matter oi course ne was
elevated to a hiirh nosition in tha r
habilitated state. When political con
troversies once more began to agitate
the people- Judge Fowle retired from
the bench, and to the surprise of those
who were accustomed to see in him bu
the calm reserve of the judicial tharac
ter, he inflicted upon aspiring rivals
the outrage of developing a consum
mate orator. The people shouted

is
everywhere known, to relate how the
love of the people and the trial ice of
the ring masters grew side by side un
til the culmination in'.lSSO, when the
bosses fose in their might and using
the people's property to defeat their
will, hauled their emissaries oa free
passes over the state's railroads, and
taught the presumptuous "masses" how
sadly they were mistaken in supposing
themselves the real rulers of the
country. 'Now it is--said that Judge

resentful and disaffected; that he gave

to demand the proof, but we pause to

the outrage of a baurbon clique who
put into profitable practice

That they should take who bare tbe power.

Lastly, Judge Fowle almost makes a
confession of his iniquity and apostasy
in the bold and shameless act of an
swering with civility a letter of the
PpBT requesting his opinion aa to who
should elect a member of congress in
the place of Mr. Poole, deceased. Now,
to give a legal opinion cannot be dis
loyal to the Jarvis dynasty, but if that
opinion should conflict with party
machinations, the evil is more appa

THE WHEREFORE OF THE
OHIO DEFEAT.
We feel constrained fo confess that
the result of the late Ohio election was
contrary to all our anticipations
Though we could not fail to recognize
the serious character of the disadvanta
ges under which the Republican party
labored, yet we could but hope in view
of the actual importance'of the tariff
question, that it would, as it deserved
to do, overshadow every other issue,
Probably, the wish was parent to the
thought, for after our 1 recent experi
ence in North Carolina we ought- to
have understood that nothing else pro
vokes so fierce and implacable an oppo
sition aa legislation restrictive of per
sonal freedom of action, and tending to
enforce a moral code which substitutes
the conscience of accidental-and tern
porary law-give s for that of the indi
viduais suoject thereto, lo speaK
plainly and concisely, it might as well
be understood that the party in this
country which shoulders prohibition, in
any form, wilJ, sooner or later, have to
bear along the Old Man of the Moun
tains, whose weight will become in
tollerably burdensome before it is sha
hen off. Sumptuary laws and such as
depart from , the domain of legitimate
legislation in a fvain effort to settle
questions of conscience and moral right
are distasteful to any free people, spe
cially so to the citizens of a great and
free republic, and still more specially to
the states which are . peopled by those
who left their homes across the ocean to
enjoy individual freedom at the. price
of expatriation. Even uudcr the ar
bitraryrule of European, governments
freedom in drink and diet is left to the
people, and no wonder they are in
tollerant of restrictions here unknown
even at home. Those who cauuot dis
pense with tbe foreign, and especially
the German vote, bad as well now as
at any time make their choice between
a vain and quixotic espousal of the
hopeless cause of prohibition, and the
control of the Federal Government. If
the people rule in" this county, then
their voice ought to be potential in
Ohio and wherever else they have spo
ken on this question, and there is no
dereliction of principle, but rather site
giance to it, in advancing the popular
frill on this subject. We should be dif
fident as to expressing our . views on a
matter which ought to be best under
stood by the chief and responsible ac
tors, bat when the far-sighted and sa
gacious Sherman is our authority, as he
is in this instance, we feel impregraably

Mb. Editob; Allow me space in
your paper to say a few words to the
laboring men of North CarolinaTe
gardlesd of race!, color, or previous.conr
vlition of servitude.
Lookiug to the future and to the in?
terest of the poor class of people, I see
uo other way but for us to pull together
and with one pull altogether, the poor
men can control this government.
With this fact starmg in the facej and
the year 1834, we can turn the political
tide in the stale by coming to the front
in full force and break down the few
men who now control. All we want
ii fair play at the ballot box ami a fair
count of the ballots after they are c&at.
The .time has . come when bosses,
rings and ciiqueai must stop and let the
voice of the people be heard.
This i.s one of the questions that is
bringing about the liberal movement'
in our state to day, Too much boas
rule and rings and cliques in any party
will soon send it to destruction,' be
cause the people will not stand and
allow any set of men to control them,
let them be republicans or democrats,
north pr south. I - : 4
Let me say to the laboring class of
the people, leardless of color or party,
let us come together and join hands
with the liberal party, to bring about
political and equal rights, to all alike
before the law, and tbatrivill gire us
tho. right to vote? for all Our local offi
cers justices of tike peace, county com
missioners and school committeemen;
We should stand together and-n vo te
for the party and best men who'will
always give our children! the best ad
vantage oi the school facilities, and ed
ucate the poor children of the state,
who are now playing about the streets
on account of the party now in power
neglecting to appropriate funds enough
to school them. Let us look forward
to the day when every public school
door will be open 'to every child in tbe
state.
Lery ciuzsu pays his taxes,, apart
of which go to pay for public schools
Youfiud thai all the laws that were
enacted by the legislature affect the
poor laboring man. lake for instance
the public road working and see who
work them aud wjio it is' that suffer by
it. To prove this, go on the road the
day of working; there you see the poor
man, both while aud colored, and when
either class fail to work the road, he is
indicted beiorc- a justice s. court, and in
most c.ises is fiaed two dollars and
costs. i
Now, Mr. Editor, if we: poor!' men
Could have tbe opportunity tdl pj
public road taxes, we would be ready
at &Dy time. In the last legislature
there was introduced' by the liepubli
caus bill afcer bill in relation to the
public roads, but everv tiuoo a question
would come up that would benefit the
laboring classes, it was tabled or vo
ted down by the majority side of the
house. So the interest of the labor-i
iDg man- resU with himselPhei has
the power to ut bud men i cut and
good men in, to better his coudi
tiou and that of his children. The
coalition , party will be the party for
"theuj, and by pulling together as one,
the victory will be ours. Look at the
last election. Judge Bennett only beat
tbe liou. U. It. Lockery & little over
four huulred aud odd voles. This will
show where the laboring men are drift
ing. 'They .are learning to think for
inerascives. wunaiong pun, a Ktroog
pull, and a pull aitogetber, we will win
a victory iu l&M.
All. we want is the same rights in
common that all ether citizens enjoy,
as far as we are able aud have the
uitmey to pay our way. We do not
want social equality or wish to force
ourselves where we are not wanted.
Now, Mr. Editor, a few words to the
olored people, let us say to tbe white
men that we, as native born citizens of
the same: country are here to stay, and
and all we ask is a fair chauce in the
race yf life aud to be dealt with equally
ceiore the law, ana wd will live togeth
er as one maul Whatever will be their
intert t shall be our interest.- Lst the
whittf men throw away ther prHudices
ana ui me coioreu meu tarow away
theirs. I d-j.n't i r.'tendrto sav that all
white uit'u are prejudiced (for some of
them are the best friends we have) but a
majority ot them .are prejudiced against
41. AU should turn their eyes to busi
ness and join bauds iu building up the
state, itiit peace anu prosperity may
come to every home. Lei me say to
the laboring classes that they are the
bone aud sinew of the ounlry. Look
a', the uisgairiccut aud stately mansions
of our country that stand as rmocu
meals to the mechanical kill of the
labarinf men, which would be appre
ciated by the wealthy, and should coat-
oiiod .the respect of the capitalists.'
When LQ3 laboring men mrke up their
minds to sUn together they can rule
any party, and the day tiey do the bet
ter it will be fjr them, and tier will
control capital and not capital control
them, rue iest of all let us buy land
and become owutr4 cf the soil and
tuive to edacAie cur children, that
they may become good sod useful citi
zens. The Aniif u highly thought
ot here, and I wish it much success.

An Illastration. t
In 1880 the fake pf cotton goods
manoctored in te United States was
two Lnndred and,; thlrt'iix ' millions
inclodlng estimated Mpntof -cotton
in mlied textiles. Of this amount only
$11,-000,000 was exported, leaving $225,
000,000 for home consumption. If we
had a tariff jfor re vents only it would
be low enough to make it profitable to
imporVairthe Bupply for the American
market. Oar cotton imports for 1880
were but $25,000,000. If they could
haye been $250,000,000, 'A a very small
duty of course,. the revenue therefrom
would have been much jgreater than' it
waaj Wit!; a tariff on cotton, levied
xpres&lj and only for revenue, and
with a Tiew. U, exhaasi the revenue
producing power of that commodity, it
would be fot-the interest of the govern
ment to have Imports! of ten' yards for
one, if it could do so, by charging as
duty one cent where ii now charges five.
Thus it would receive twice as much
revenue as now, paid on ten times as
large an amount of imports. Low : du
ties would ' make foreiga cotton so
cheap that none would be manufactured
in the United States to compete with
it. And so the same principle would
work in regard to all foreign mauufac
tures And.thefjree trade Democracy
ask the farmers to believe that it would
benefit them to have the factory opera
tives turn farm hands, and thus in
crease competition with them while de
stroying the home market. The pro
hibitionists won't vote for that next
year. National Bepvblican.
,No doubt every intelligent reader
has noticed the utter lack of argument
in the Machine press whenever any
thing of importance is to be disposed
of. This was remarkably noticeable in
the campaign in this j state last year,
and is equally noticeable in those of
other states this year. We did not
know for r tain that it had solemnly
resolved to argue no questions in poli
tics or morals, until we saw it pro
claimed in one of the boss sheets.
They will henceforth rely I upon mere
assertion without proof or argument.
We were tn hopes that1 the leaders had
become ashamed of the abusive and
denunciatory character
paign, and would not
oi iue last cam-
allow it - to be
practiced again, as there was certainly
nothing gained by tbe monstrous f ilse
hoods, vilification, and abuse that were
encouraged and gloried iu. It has
been the Machine policy iu this state
for some .time, however, to affect not
to see or hear what they could not an
swer. VVhenever an opponent shows
up weir tricas, their stupidity, unfair
ness or false statements, they at once
assume the dignified air of the bloated,
toad, tcs back their empty craniums.

. . Our Wealth.
The facts and figures gathered by the
census and by other means of a like na
ture will show this to be the wealthiest
nation in the world. Counting the rail
roads, shipping, lands, live stock, in
vestments, houses and furnishings, and
all representatives of wealth, the grand
total of wealth in the United States is
put down at 50,000,000,000 while that
of Great Britain is nearly $10,000,000
less. The wealth per inha bitant in
this coun'.ry 'is therefore practically
tl.OOO per head. In Gfeit Britan is
little above that. Notwithstanding the
complaints that there are monopolists
and that labor in this country is not
given a show for itself, these same sta

Honest Politics, j ;
It is customary now-a-days to be
wail the corruption that has crept into
the political methods of our country,
and to unfavorably compare the poli
cian of to-day with the politicians of
years ago with Clay, Webster .and
Calhoun; with Washington,- Jefferson
and Hamilton, and the other bright
particular stars of history. We cO
say that the good that men do lives
after them, while the evil is oft inter
red with their bones, and dismiss the
subject with' a scoff and a sneer, but
but there is too much truth and justice
in these cavilings, and the 1 truth is
mighty and will prevail. i
Corruption does exist in Ihe politics
Of to-day; fraud is used to combat fraud
in our political methods, and lying ex
pediency guides the framers of politi
cal platforms. Honesty is at a discount
and where is the test of merit. This
is all so. Now what is the cause, and
where is the remedy! Slavish subser
viency to "party" is the first, and this
being so the remedy is easily indica
ted. '
Party organization the party "ma
chine," as it is called is honest, fair
and legitimate, j It is the harness that
couples the whole team; the union of
individuals in which there is strength.
The party, has the right to mould the
wishes of -the individual, to shape his
poinions to a certain extent, but never
at any time, or : any reason, to dictate
any action repulsive to a man's better,
higher nature whether founded on good
morals or religion. When party car
ries the individual to the declaration
that he "will vote for the Devil if nom
inated by his ; party," is it a wonder
that politics are corrupt; that the stand
ard of morality is so low among politi
cians? "My party, may she ever be
right; but right or wrong, my party!"
is the gospel of unreasoning people.
Herebjr is autocratic power given to
the ."machine" in every county, and,
every state, until its despotism becomes
unbearable tyrannical. The individu
al then is asked to vote for any rascal,
with capacity enough for wire pnlling
to become the party's candidate. When
the people arise in their might and de
clare -against this sort of politics by
voting against every dishonest man or
measure of their party, the good wortej

Some of our exchanges are exercised
about the verdict against Shields for
the murder of Sitton, as was alleged,
for the seduction of Shields' sister.
She denied this repeatedly on the day
of the homicide. There was soma evi
dence showing a diflerent motive,and
the jury doubtless weighed the whole
testimony and unanimously, on the
first ballot, said guilty. We agree
that female virtue should be protec
ted, and the brother father who
slays the .seducer of sister or daughter
should not be counted a murderer, but
the plea should not pome clouded with
doubts and contradictions.
Another feature in Shields' case was
his proven character as a seducer of
other men's sisters. A maximfof the
court of equity is that he who asks
equity must come" into court with clean
hands. He didn't have them.- West
