I THURSDAY, - - Octobkb 6, 1887. Thirty-five persons have just been licensed to practice law. The State Chronicle says tbey were licensed to live economically. The proposed prohibition amend ment in Tennessee bun been defeated, but the mnjcrity against is rot very large $ it will fall below 15,000. It seems that everything is con spiring against Charlotte. It is not the Richmond & Danville R. R. this time, but President Cleveland is discriminating in fayor of towns along the W. N. C. R. R. We Lave received a copy of the Wadesboro Meaenger. It is a bright, newsv sheet ; is one of the best week lies in the State ; deserves a liberal patronage ; nnd we gladly enter the Messenger on our exchange HbL Dtmixa President Cleveland's ab sence, on his tour through the West and South, Secretary Bavard will be President pro. tern. This will be putting in force the Presidential succession bill passed at the last ses sion of Congress. Prohibition in Florida has prac tically swept the state. It has been done by counties, one at a lime. It has not only mixed up the political parties but is reported that it has almost obliterated the color line and it has been done in such a manner as to confuse those who would look into the political future. FREE SPEECH AND THE LA W. "Is it unlawful," howls Herr Most, 'to have free speech in this coun try ?" The fact that he was per initted to go unmolested to make his anarchistic harangue is a tufficient answer to the question. Free speech is lawful; but it is rutber remarkable that this opponent of a government of law should appeal to the law to protect him in free speech. There is the same remark able feature in the case of the. con. demned Anarchists. Their, claim it that they did nothing but denounce law and authoiity and government, and that they have a perfect right to do this under the law and the au thoiity and the government they de -Bounce. ( 'onvicted of a far graver offense they appeal to the law for protection aud propose to cairy theii case before the highest tribunal in the country if they can get it there. They are anxious and eager to avail themselves of every safeguard which the law throws around the individ ual accused of crime. But in ad vance of trial and condemnation' they spat upon the law and adminis trators and ministers. Suppose for a momen t that the law which these men denounced and which Herr. Most still denounces even while he appeals to it for pro tection in denouncing it had been suspended when the fatal bomb was exploded in the Haymarket? The Anarchists would not then have been tried aud condemned. But in all human probabi ity they would have baen torn to pieces by the f ? iends of their victims. It is to the law they denounce that they owe the right to a trial and to the exhaustion of everv means of delay and postponement. It is to the law they owe the posi biiity which still exists of escape for some or all of them through the ex I'cise of the pardoning power. It the law were to be suspended even now, as Herr Most and his mad fol 1 wers demand, the lives of the sev en would not be worth a moments purchase. Even in a reign of anar chy the majority would recognize the impolicy of permitting such men to go at large. Aud as there would be no prisons the majority could only protect themselves by the prompt removal of the bomb-throwers. De troit Free. Press. . GENERAL NE WS. Judge Rae was elected comman der-in-chief ot the G. A R. at the meeting in St. Louis, Saturday Oct 1st. , The General Assembly of the Knights of Labor convened an Minn eapolis last Monday. A Majority of the Utah commis sion have made their annual report. It states thai there has been a gain of 60,000 in population since 1880. Transcribing the records in the AnaruhitH1 case has begun. It will cost $4,000. G ONE D O WN I D O WN THE SAME OLD ROAD. Another political soul has gone to bia long resting place. While we catch breath we will give his friends a moment to bow their uncovered heads, take a last look upon the de spairing features of, and shed the tears of sorrow and pity, for the lost, over the disappearing form of one whose sins have found him oat ; one who has pronounced judgment, an awful judgment, upon himself. Gaze upon and weep over the form cf Romulus Z Linney before the veil of everlasting obscurity is drawn be tween he aud ihee. Did " any ono weept There were a few words of pity for the doomed one, bat "nary a" tear was shed. He alone is to blame. True, he was the prisoner bat he was also judge and jury. He executed the crime, but be, also, was executor of the judgement. And while standing there on the pinacle of a high position he wrote his I act will and testament, bequeathing to the Republican party the "51 souk" living on his land; spoke of the temp tations which led him in his down ward career; pointing to himself as an example, uttered words of warn ing to the unsuspecting; sung his "farewell" song; and with the request that his last words be published in a Republican newspaper, to occupy six and a half columns, he pulled over his eyes a black cap of his own make and, then, leaped from the pinacle, and as no angels would, only the poor famished republican party at tempted to bear him up aud conse quently he dashed his foot against a stone. Linney done it done it all. "Rash mortal, thy name shat no longer appear in the records of fame." "Let me rise to a question of per sonal privilege," says Mr. Linney in his card, and he kept on rising until he had raised fix and a half columns in a newspaper. A line was sufficient for memory. He must have been Misled by Fancy' meteor rny. By paMiou driven." - About two and a half columns are devoted to criticising the Statesville Landmark, which we leave for "Joseph," and we know he will do him up Hbrown." The balance of the article arraigns the Democratic party for the non-fulfillment of pledges made, and , well it is so scattering that we have not been able to find but one great object in it, and that is that he intends to rote the Republican .ticket. Void of- arguments full of -frenzy; well deecribed by Burns, "ITeelenrhM hi -pamphlet in his Act, Be qieted and he hinted. Till in a declamation mitt H Is argumen t he tint (Icet) it." Linney is going to the Republican party because the Democratic party has not abolished the Internal Rev enue laws. Whicii party is most in favor of it? Let us see. 9 March 3rd. 1887, Speaker Carlisle recognized Mr.Hendeison (Democrat) vt North Carolina, who offered a res olution providing for the aboltion of the tax on leaf tobacco and for liberal modifications of the restric tion now laid on the distillers of spirits and the producers of fruit brandy, one of the most important of these modifications being the for bidding of revenue officers to destroy property coming into their possession. Under the rules, a two-third vote was required for the passage of this resolution.. The members voting was 136 Democrats and 115 Repub licans. The vote was as follows : j l-OB THi RESOLUTION. Democrats, . 131 Repubublicans, 8 AOAI5&T THE RESOLUTION. Democrats, 5 Republicans, 107 163 votes twothirds being requir ed for the passage of .the resolution. More thean 06 per cent of the Dem ocrats voting voted for the resolu tion, whilst more than 93 per cent of the Republicans voting voted against itl Where now is the excuse? Does it look reasonable that a sensible man would leave a party in which 96 out of every ,100 were his friends aud go to a party in which 93 out of every 100 were his enemies.' "Poor worm! thou art infected" with some other motive. Oh, yes, Democrats use too much 'coarse invective and reproachful language" which brings relief only to small minds." Well, now it seems that we once heard, in the heat of a political campaign, a certain lawyer (whose given name was Romulus) make a speech in the court square at Newt.n which surpassed anything, for "coarse invective and reproachful language" that we have ever listened to; but this was the perfect type of decency and respectful language compared with a harangue, uttered at Tayloraville some months ago, which was credited to this saaae Romulus. Is it any wonder then that be is eo familiar with such names as "slop drinkers, beer smellers, syc ophants, the devils minions around the camp-fires of despotism, hell-freeze-overs, etc?" And is this as lie suggests, "the mere out-croppings of envy? In hunting-arpund for some way in which to destroy the Pemocratic party Mr. linney comes to this con elusion; "The only party that can destroy the present Democratic organization, I believe, is the Republican. . I have never given a Republican vote. I have" ho'besitancy, however, in saying that the work of the Republican party at any time, in my opinion, since the close of the war has been characterized with more intelligence and patriotism than that of the Dem ocratic administration since Cleve land's election, and as a choice of evils the Republican is preferable." . Fellow Democrats, do you want to know why the above assertion is true? Just after Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated account of disappoint tntnt orjsomething else, Mr. Linney stepped down and out and carried with him, (selfish creature that he is) all the patriotism thatjuftly belonged to Democracy. He includes in the patriotism of the Republican party the acts of that party during the re construction period the legalized and unlegalized robbery perpetrated upon the people of North Carolina. You all remember it. Patriotism? My God, what has become of the in telligence of that man? Is he pos sessed of devils? Oh! he has been bar'd up in the Democratic party and he thought his time to soar aloft was too long about coining. . The passage which he quotes from Byron has its office again: Ai eaecrlr the bar'd up bird will hat. 11 in breast and beak againut hi wiry dome, 'Till the blood tinge hi plumace no the heat. Of liN impeded aoul would through his boeom. eat." ''If I had it in my power" says M r. Linney, "both the old political partie? would be abandoned and a new one formed". No doubt, if it had been in his power he would have been Solicitor of one of the North Carolina districts. If it had been in his pow er, and he could have stood the hot shot, he would have been a member of the National Congress to-day (and then the internal revenue would have been abolished he would have done it himself.) Who can tell what he would have done "if it had been in his power". " This is the way all of them go, like a little boy running awsy from parents. He walks slowly back and forth, eagerly scanning the ground, every time getting nearer the corner, until at last he. turns around it and is gone like a "streak of greased lightning". Here is the secret of Mr. Linney's change. He says: "any aspirant for office, if wise, would tot exchange the influence of the Revenue official in a nominating convention for all the balance of the Democratic voting popu.ati.i'n." This is the key. Some one else has always been stronger in the conventions than he. He has lacked influence of some kind, certain. But says he, "In anouncing my pur pose to vote with the Republican party, unless the demcciacy , turns pttriotic, I expect no ofSoe from tiiem." Oh, no, he never did have ny de sire for office. No office? We call upon the Gods and Angels to tell us, for surely no human can, by what means this grand reformation was brought about? Surely he has made a grand and commenbable departure from the course he has heretofore pursued, even from his youth up. Oh! patriotism snatched frcra de mocracy, thou hast surely done this noble work, if so we excuse yonr ab sence and shall ever pronounce you blessed. ' National Grange. It has been said by a noted scient ist that exchange of thought is the life of the globe. To show that this is a fact, we have only to point to those nations whose commerce has been most extensive and whose peo ple have mingled most with the world. As nations stagnate by non inter change of idAs, so do individuals. One who seldom places himself in the society of an intelligent, studious friend, with a view to self-improve ment, or who does not seek the com panionship of some good book for the same purpose, loses much social ly, morally and intellectually. " , . So I tLIak that the iarmer ho io lates himself, not caring for social pleasures and not giving or-receiving ideas, must soon have . a "careworn face and become eld before his time. Now in the Grange he can find just what is satisfying; fie is benefit ted by the expression of thonht o by brother and sister Patrons, be comes broader minded, while, home cares grow 183 heavy and" he' walks with more elastic step. In fact, he is happy because he belongs to the Patrons of Husbandry, and he looks forward with joy to each succeeding meeting of the Grange. This not .only is for the farrrer, but' for-his-' wife and children who indeed appreciate the pleasant change after a hard day s cit at home, -of meeting with brothers and sisters of the farm to enjoy . the sympathy and mutual good . fellow ship ofibe Grange.
