A COINCIDENCE.
We stated last week that Mr. Kerr
Craige, of Salisbury, had been nomi
ifded as the d'onocraiie candidate for
CJongress in the seventh district.
Since tlren he hs written it letter ele
tfliniug tho norcinntion, because his
physician advised him to do so on
Account of his bad health. Mi'. Craige's
thauy friends will much regret to
hear this, not Oirly becccuso of their
Bynipatihy for his physical condition
but also because they would have
been so much pleased to havo him oc
eftipyieg eo honorable position as a
l"tAtM-AfiAi,i-atii'a ill tTV.to. r,r.cf fn i-.f
. . ... "! . , .,
eoarBe he would have been elected if
Be had accepted the nomination.
It is epiite a remarkable coincidence
that the only other instance (that we
(fan recall in this State) where a man
was nominated titf a candidrdt fot
Congress raid declined, occurred in
fhe same town, iu which Mr. Craige
resides. In the year 1820 Mr. John
Giles, of Salisbury, was nominated
as a candidate for Congress and de
clined because of his bad health.
That at least is the rcaxon given by
Historians, but we have heard that i
fie declined the Congressional nomi- i
aation because ho preferred to hold j
the office cf Clerk of the Court of
Rowan county, the emoluments of
vthicb then exceeded the salary of a
Congressman.

It is needless to say that the taxes
thus levied under negio rule, and ex
pended under ncgio rule; that the
schools under negro rule for white
children, and the administration of
justice for white men by negro offi
cials, were at: pant ror ry w.me men.
It does not set well 'iu a while man's
slomaih to be arrested by a negro
constable or to bo tried before a negro
magistrate.
Of i-eiiirse, when taxes are levied
and expended by men who pay none',
the levy is heavy and the expenditure
lavish. This is truo of men, whether
whito or black; but iu addition to
this, the average colored voter con
scientiously believes he is honestly
entitled to everything that h can g.-tj
from the white man, and that get
what ho will, he will never balance his
account against the white man for
so; viced rendered during slavery.
These things bt ing so. the question

consideration showed
that, so long as the Cauby Constitu
tion was unchanged, the Canby system
must remain in force;, and thus a
strong stimulus was given to the agi
tation for its repeal.
In 1871 the people elected a Legis
lature in which two thuds of both
Houses were Democrats. These mem
bers of the Legislature very well knew
that the people had sent this number
there that a convention might consti
tutionally bo called und relief theieby
afforded to the negro-ridden c. unties.
The Convention was duly called, and

These amendments were submitted
to the people for ratification or rejec
tion in Novemher, 1X7(5. The ennvass
was memorable for its length and for
the obstinacy with which the Itepub

patronage and unlimited Federal
money, fought as step by step and at
