Dockery, in his speech here last
week, trievl to create the impression
that Judge Fowle had been guilty of
improper conduct in rega 1 to some
o'f the sp-:ial tax bonds issued by
he radical Legislature in 1868. Of
course no honest man believes that i
. . tl . , i,,. i
there is any truth in s.ich a chuge,
and when Dockery makes so untrue
a' charge it shows to what desperate ; say, has aroused the farmers of these
shaits he is driven. Even Dockery's ; sections in a way not be fore known,

ed by the becietary oi his State exe-: no auJ is doing snme er. sti.or
sutive committee, does not beheve blinkiu in the direction of Obiu, Ne-
that there id auv truth m such a !
charge. In its issue of the 10th. of
last May, that paper has a long edi
torial about the inning and fraudu
lent disposition of these bonds, and
says that J udge Fowle's conduct con
cerning th'-m "showed that he was
honest''. These are the words used
by tne leading republican paper of
North Carolina, and one whoe editor
is ihw most influential republican in
the State. Also one of Mr. Dockery's
colleagues on the State ticket bears
public testimony to Judge Fowle's
hiffh character. Mr. C. F. McKesson,
the republican nominee for State I
Auditor, in his letter of acceptance,
. i i , . ... . r m i
published in tlie Signal ot July 12th , !
1 ,. t T,b. ,
cumphmeLfs Juage Fowle and the
other democratic candidates by using
the toiiowing language about them: I
ihe recent Democratic convention
b confronted us with a clean, square
ticket, the. perso:. J oi which is above
reproach." Yes, that is true, every
fprd of it ; for Fowle, Holt, Sauder
lin, Finger, Baiu and Davidson are
all "clean", "square", and "above re
proach", and are no more to be coni
jmred o Dockery and his crowd than
the brigutness of the noon day sun
to midnight darkness!
-ockeky seems to be as unscrupu
lous a demagogue as Tyre York, and
he will meet with a like overwhelm
ing defeat. In his speech here he
repeated the old lie about President
Cleveland having 'entertained Fred
Douglass at dinner, and when Dock
eYy uttered such a slander he knew
that it was not true ! Now, what
ought decent, honest people to think
6f a man aspiring to the high and
honorable position of Governor and
telling so vile a falsehood ou the
President! Not satisfied with slan
dering Mr. Cleveland, Dockery so far
degraded his manhood as to utter a
Blander on Mrs. Cleveland, by stating
that she (to use his own words) had
kissed ifi negro wench." Col. Dock
ery you ought to be ashamed of your-
boh, ccu i iuo untuauce oi sucn a

Dockeby, in his speeches, tries io
xcite the prejudices of the farmers
ftgarost Judge Fowle because the
latter is a lawyer, and tells them that
they ought not to vote for lawyers,
and yet does riot tell the'itf that a
iaaiority of the republican candidates
on th State ticket are lawyers ! Yet,-
th k fact ritchardf Me.Keewnv
and Mason, the republican candidates
for Lieutenant-Governor, Auditor,
and Superintendent of Public In
struction, are all lawyers ; whereas
not one of the democratic candidates
for the same positious is a lawyer.
And yet Dockery, tho demagogue,
hen abusicg Judge Fowle because
he is a lawyer, does not mention this
fact. Let the people wmember this I
Independents, so called, are looked
Upon with suspicion by both parties,
and are not trusted by either, Even
the republican papers are now calling
on their readers to -watch" the inde- j
pendents. The leading republican
paper of the State, the Raleigh Sig
nal, had an editorial last week on the
so-called independents, and asserted
that an "independent is nothing but
a democrat in disguise. Watch him!''
Now, is'nt that too bad on some of
the "brethren"? The same editorial
very truly says "there are but two
parties Republican and Democratic.
If you don't like the Republican tick
et and platform vote for the demo
nrata Wft commend this to the
careful consideration of those prohi-
. . !
bitiou democrats, who threaten to
vote for Walker, and thereby help to
elect Dockery.
Of course there are but two politi
cal parties in this State the repub
lican and the democratic and one
or the other of them will be sure to
govern Noith Carolina. No sane
nmu will deny, or even doubt this
Then why throw away your vote?

Notes of the Campaign.
(Sew York Star Syndicate Letter to the KacoKD. !
New York, August 4, 1888.
Leading Democrats from many
States have been in town for a day
or two in attendance upon the liist
meeting of the National Democratic
League Executive Committee. From
all about, and especially from those
Western and Northwestern Siafe
which are generally put down in the
Republican column, come the most
encouraging reporis of the progress
of tin? Democratic campaign. Tiie
attitude of the Republicans to the very
mouei ate measures wnicn have I:

Congressman Matson of Indiana
dropped in at Headquarters yesterday
to say that it looks likfi a sure tiling
for Clevelnud in his Stute. Es-Governor
Porter's refusal to accept the
chances of war in another Guberna
torial camptdgu has disappointed the
Harrison managers who hoped to
draw votes from his personal popu
larity. Tune is little question that
f orter iz Ho
peoj
wuom
lie was a conspicuous 1
4l A?,e repf.rt lroin. " asbiugton that
the Kerjubhcan raaioritv in the Senate
ua,T .n.i;,...! f ....
navs practically agreed upon a tarill
bill which will reduce the revenue
$60,000,000 a year, has rather tended
to stimulate curiosity as to the posi-
tion tne s. o. n. will liud itself in when
Congress adjourns. It is said that
the lines of the biii diverge very wide
ly from the rigid high protection ideas
of the Republican leaders in the
House, and that there will be a good
deal of music in camp before t be meas
ure is even announced. Free sugar,
of course, will be advocated to help
out the free mm of the Chicago plat
form, for the obvious reason that
Louisiana aud such other Southern
States as produce sugar are solidly
Democratic and will remain so be
yond peradventure.
The reigning local topic, one that
completely overshadows politics and
puts all others in the shade is base
ball. New Yorkers at a moderate es
timate pay half a million dollars a year
for the privilege of seeing the Princes
of the Diamond "slug the loathern
sphere into the far left garden," as
the newspaper chroniclers poetically
express it, and now for the first time
in five years their own pet team are
at tne top oi the hoap. Of what ac
count .frit to us Gothamites who be
comes president, just so our own
"Oiftntn" Walk n wov witVi ilia nrTraA
base-ball pennant?
Speaking of polities, there has been
a lull during the past week, but they
tea us that something will be heard
to drop in the courae of a very few
days. It is only once in twelve years
that the citizens of the Metropolis
nave tne opportunity of voting for
President, Governor and Mayor at
the same time. The last time it hap
pened was in the Tilden campaign of
'76. That is what puts such peculiar
zest into the fight this year, and makes
every stage of the proceeding well
worth watching. It is too early yet
for the blare of trumpets and the
blooming of heavy artillery, but if you
listen closely you will hear the sharp
rattle of the skirmish line, and if you
handle your field glasses properly you
will see that the armies are unusually
Compact and that each has entrench
ed itself behind its most formidable
fortification.
Will it be Hill for Governor ! The
Mugwumps say not. If it is, they
contend Cleveland will loss thousands
of votes in the State, and may be de
feated. If it is not Hill, some of the

that Cleveland will lose thousands of
votes in the State and will very like

situation in a nut shell, or rather the
arguments of either side. But it must
not be supposed that opposition to i

entirely Mugwumpiau. The County j

This immigration problem is per
haps the most seriou3, sstve that of
taxation, with which our Legislators
will have to grapple. At the rate of
30,000, a mouth foreign emigrants,
largely of the poorer classes, are pour

6xist organized societies for the im
portation of their pauper and criminal
classes into America. Such laws as
we have on the subject are extremely
defective and larely enforced. Polish
and Russian Jews, Hungarians, the
lowest class of Germans, Austrians
and Italians are systematically im
ported by agents of the steamship
compauies who impose on their cre
dulity by glowing accounts of the op
portunities for profitable employment
here. When the agent lauds his fish
at Castle Garden he gets somethiug
like $2.20 per head as his pay. The
immigrant having nothing beyond the
few dollars requisite to pass the land
ing officials is given the option of
working for the Boss under contract
at from 20 to 50 cents a day or of be
ing left in a strange country to
starve.
This species of "protection" to the
American laborer will be worked for
all it is worth by the Democratic man
agers. It comes with peculiar force
at a time when the opposition are
wearing out their throats shouting
"free trade.' The beauties of the
great Republican system which makes
a workingman pay 2.00 for a 1.00
pair of shoes, aud allows the pauper
scum of Europe to come in duty free
and st up opposition to his labor on
a starvation basis, will be set forth
as strikingly as the Committee can
have it done.
Apropos of this cheap labor ques
tion, Banker Morton is catching it all
along the line for his attituds to the
American workman. Convicted by
the testimony of his own employes of
having brought them from Europe
to his great Rhicebeck estate under
coutraet, (in direct violation of the
law,) and held them down to a scale
of wagea 50 per cent, below the pre
vailing prices the prices paid to
American workmen by his own neigh
bors, there is no evading the issue
nor escaping its natural consequences.
The publication of Harrison's Chinese
record was not a circumstance to it
aud Morton.
It is a rosy outlook in this citv for
j Cleveland and Thurmau.

Wahhisotoh. Aug. 3, 1888.
The President returned from his
well earned four day vacation trip in
ample time to 6ign the joint resolu
tion extending the old appropriation
bills for thirty days longer, thus dis
appointing the republicans very much,
as they were Jl roady to raise a cry
of neglect of public duties. That is
one accusation i.hni no one can truth
fully make ajVxst Mr. Cleveland. It
i doubtful whether this country ever
had a President that attended as close
ly to his duties an Mr. Cleveland, wc
have certainly not had one since Lin
coln. Senator Beck has given notice that
he-will in the future Object to unani
mous consent being given for the
passage of any bill. He believes in
taking the bills as they stand upon
the calendar, and bringing them up
in the regular way.
It is now said that the republicans
of the Senate will not have their sub
stitute for the Mills bill ready before
the 20 th inst, if they do then. It ia
further said that they do not propose
to attempt to pass a bill at this ses
sion, but will only report it, so as to
give them a chance to gain votes this
fall, by promising to amend it beiore
it is passed, to suit anybody whose
vote can be had. JLhe slow and de
liberate manner in which the Senate
committee is acting, has gained many
believers for the report that no attempt
will be made to pass the bill.
Commissioner Colman will probab

passage is expected.
