"TT If your paper has a blue cross mark, it will be stopped till you pay up. We cannot continue to send it to you without some money. Please pay up and let us continue it to you. LOCAL. The campaign is open. Pay for and read the Messenger. Tt is too hot to walk after money and get none. The democrats arc for free trade, revenue and county government. Elder R. S. Rives held his quarterly meeting at Clinton Chapel last Sun day. Misses Ella and Rebecca Cantcy and Miss Carrie Coleman are in Anson county to teach. The republicans will give the people protection, abolish the revenue and give us self government. Miss Fannie O’Kclly, of Raleigh, is visiting friends in Rockingham. She is one of our best teachers. Your subscription to this paper has expired. If you want the paper con tinued to you, please renew at once. Mrs. Eliza Gaffney, of Shelby, re turned home last week, after spending several days with Miss Sarah Peartree. County superintendents of education throughout the State are busy this week examining applicants for teach ers certificates. It is expected that Prof. J. T. K. Simpson will be asked to take the first assistants place in the State Normal at Fayetteville. If you would know the truth about things, and be prepared to vote right, read Republican newspapers and less Democratic trash. Prof. S. G. Atkins passed through the city Monday from Lincolnton, where he had closed a successful teachers’ institute. The Sabbath School Convention of this district for the Zion Sunday schools will be held at Davidson Col lege on the 25th inst. If it be right for the colored men to divide their votes why do Demo crats try to raise the color line so as to make white men vote solid? We expect two letters from Fay etteville next week. One may have a political tinge, while the other will he from our regular correspondent. Elder Hill’s people had a success ful ice-cream party last Tuesday night, in spite of the rain. They will run an excursion to Tarboro on August Ist. The sufferers from the policeman’s billy in this city is usually a colored man or woman. White men often resist arrest but their heads arc not pummelled. The N. Y. World like other papers admits that the mugwumps will fall into line quietly in the approaching election, either with his old party or the democrats. llcv. Mr. Morris can’t wait for his congregation after the hour for service Eleven in the morning and eight at night are the hours for services to begin. Lawyer J. 8. Leary spent last Sat- urday and Sunday in our city. lie delivered the address at the laying of the corner stone of the colored Odd Fellows’ hall in Wilmington. Judge Burton is in fine spirits and thinks Harrison and Morton the strongest ticket that could have been put out. He expects to be elected with the whole of the republican State ticket. A young man named Owen McLean was killed at a saw mjll at Alma on the f!. C. road. It seems that he was attending the saw when a piece of lumber split off and stuck in his head. He died in a few minutes. Pic-nics are held by the farmers in different localities to such extent that it is said there is some political sig nificance in them. Farmers’ alliances, old soldiers, &c., arc having feasts in good eatings and big speeches. The Democratic press is already scared into fits. It demands more public speaking this year than usual, and barbecues and free dinners from the mountains to the sea, and we sup pose that also means free whiskey. If Republicans would do themselves and their party justice they would read fewer Democratic papers and more Republican papers. Be not mis lead by the bought up party sheets, but read wholesome, truthful papers. Prof. Geo. H. Williams, of Fay etteville, has been appointed principal of the State Normal at Fayetteville. He has served four or five years as first assistant in the school. It is hoped that he will build the school up to its former standard. Wonder if Jay Gould has a farm to equal that of Mr. Holt! If so he would make a nice poor man’s candi date for the Chronicle. Men with big farms and plantations they have never seen are the kind the aristocratic, kid-gloved Democracy boast of. The Democrats are much consoled over the report that Judge Russell will not run on our State ticket. We would dislike to give the Judge up, but his place can be easily and ably filled. Better wait, gentlemen, and see what the Judge and the party will do about it. Children’s day was observed in many churches, and many failed to take a good collection. It is hoped the Star of Zion will not make the mistake this year of complimenting churches for doing more than former years, when they do nothing. Honor to whom honor is due. The republican State executive committee will meet in Raleigh next Wednesday. It is hoped they will take good time and put the work of this campaign in good shape. There is no need of the democratic press knowing everything done by the committee before midnight. Our success depends muoh upon organiza tion, the wise counsel and advice of our executive committeemen. Presiding Elder R. H. Simmons has the sympathy of his many friends in the loss of his oldest son, Arthur. He died on last Tuesday night after two weeks illness with typhoid fever. Arthur was about 1C years of age, a bright and promising youth. He had the last two or three sessions attended Livingstone College. Miss Addie McAulcy and Rev. Kell of Wadcsboro, accompanied Rev. Simmons family to Fayetteville on Thursday with the corpse. I It may be presumptuous in this paper, but we think it time our graded school teachers were notified of their election, by the party having the matter in charge. Last year the most of them were not notified at all. A newspaper notice is not sufficient, ami it is time they had an understand ing of thoir work for the next session. Os course they will get better pay, especially those so much overworked. Our commissioners will soon look after and readjust the salaries of our teachers. The colored lynchers of South Carolina were to be put on trial last Monday for lynching a white man for rape upon a colored girl. This is a clear ease of tbe partial administration of the law in the South. These men it seems knew there was no doubt of tbe guilt of tbe man. Didn’t pretend to disguise, but taking the advice of white men, executed the unwritten -law of the land, as it is put down here. These men are black. They are to be punished, while white men for the same critqe go free. Mr. Walker, the prohibition can didate for Governor, will speak here next Tuesday. Mrs. Annie E.Blackwell, ncc Walker, is very ill at her home in Bridgeport, Conn. She is improving slowly. Mrs. Hilly Funderbark, of Monroe, passed through yesterday to visit her people in Ashville and enjoy the mountain breeze. The Harvest Home encampment will be held near Spartanburg, S. C., on the 26th, 27th and 28th. A grand time is anticipated. Mr. Chas. Conner asks us to say that he will be prepared to accomodate yisitors to the Sunday school conven tion at Davidson College. The passenger train on the R. & D. road broke through a bridge in Vir ginia Wednesday night killing seven and wounding forty persons. Mr. John West was one of the mail agents mortally wounded. A colored woman named Ann Wallace killed Millie Robinson with a knife on Wednesday night. They were both married women and it seems they fought about a single man. They both lived in Sharon township. Ann Wallace is in jail. The National Press Convention. By virtue of my office as President of the National Press Convention and by the expressed wish of the executive committee of the said organization and in accordance with the vote at the last meeting, the annual meeting is hereby called to meet in the city of Nashville, Tenn., August Ist, 1888, at 12 m. A large meeting is desira ble. Thi s past year and the present time present to us grave problems for discussion. The executive committee will publish the programme which I hereby request all newspapers to copy; also extend this present notice. Yours for the good of the Press, Wm. J. Simmons, Pres. Republican Heads in the Basket. Special to the World. Birmingham, Ala., July 9.—A dozen Republican railway mail clerks on the Louisville and Nashville road have just been dismissed and their places filled by Democrats. A few republican clerks still remain on the other roads running into the city, but it is understood they will soon be removed to make room for Demo crats. Republican Platform. Ist. That the interests ofithe farmer and the laborer arc identical, and whatever injuriously effects one works a grievance against the other. 2d. The hand that holds the plow should be honored, and there should be a more equitable equation between the wages of labor and the compen sation of the office-holder. 3d. We look upon the purity of the ballot-box as the best possible security against threatening evils and we demand such reasonable State legis lation as will fully protect the elector in the exercise of the elective franchise. Any denial of the elective franchise by fraud or violence poisons the springs of power. 4th. Agriculture, manufacture and commerce arc the tbrec great factors of civilization and all legislation tend ing to foster these agencies will re ceive the support of the Republican party. sth. While industry and economy are always to be looked to for relief frem financial depression, individual success necessarily depends to a grent extent upon wise legislation. To this end the total and unconditional repeal of all internal revenue taxes will greatly relievo the present par alyzed industrial condition of the country—both by relieving the country of a swarm of unnecessary officials and will relieve North Caro lina from this unequal and unjust tux. Internal federal taxes belong only to war and all revenues for the support of the Federal government (in times of peace) should be collected from customs dues and their collection should he so adjusted as to protect American industries and labor. 6th. The general government shouid not keep in its treasury any more money than is actually necessary to meet the demands of the govern ment ; and os tho means of preventing any further accumulation wo demand the repeal of the internal revenue system of taxation and tbe passage of the Blair educational hill as the best method of public education and of distributing the already accumulat ed surplus in the treasury. 7th. We are opposed to the present system of county government and we demand the election of all county and township officers hy the people. Bth. The Republican party favors and will earnestly support any legis lation looking to the abolition of all useless State officials and depen dencies, and the repeal of all un necessary taxation, that government itself may not consume that which it was intended to foster and protect. 9th. We favor the working of the public roads by some system more equitable than the present unjust and burdensome one. 10th. That we oppose the present system of hiring out convicts by the State, so as to bring their labor in competition with free labor. New Schedule on the Carolina Central.
