We want every Democratic voter
out on November 6. Not a single
patriotic son should remain away
from the . polls. Each one counts
one and to stay away it amounts to
. one lost. Duty demands your at
tending the polls and yoting to re
tain in power the only party that can
befriend the masses. There is noth
ing in the Pop. platform for any
one's relief, . -
We mn8thaveno apathy in re
gard to Jtettiog oat a full rote. We
shall win, but let the majority be
such that this Populistic foolishness
may come to realize'that the better
jadgment of the people of the county
- will not tolerate such vagaries to
baye the ghost of a chance to ever
again succeed.

The balance of the ticket . com-
mands the respect of every citizen of
the county. You couldn't find a
more faithful and courteous gentle
man inthe county than Sheriff Mors
rison. The State knows no better'
officers than Patterson," Gibson,
Cline, Archibald and the others.
Then why take menwho are inex
perienced and who are trying to
promulgate principles that wherei
eyer tried have resulted in clashing
of classes, in bitterness, in riot, con.
f asion and civil war.
But these men are not in it, if
the Democrats of the county do their
duty. Lft every one be up and do
ing. Now's the time.
THAT STATE MAURI ACE.
Some time ago cards were issued
to a great marriage ceremony in the
city of. Raleigh. The contracting
parties were Miss Mary Ann Butler,
of Goldsboro, and Mr. J C Pritch
ard, of North Carolina. The cere
mony wa3 performed by Major S
Otho Wilson, the Gideonite, assisted
by James II Young, the colored fu
sion candidate for the Legislature
from Wake, and of whom prominent
Republicans in the state (among
others Gov. Brogden, Dr. R M Nor
ment, W S O'B Robinson, C P
Lcck--y, Solicitor Wbite, the only
col'.ed Solicitor in the State, and
others) declared over their signas
tures in writing in 1893 was a man
of dirty character and unfit totruet.
They performed the ceremony in
graceful style m accordance with
the Fusion rites.
This happy couple is resting be
fore their contemplated bridal tour
to Washington. They will go, if
enough men like Mr. Ilileman, Mr.
Moody and Mr. Yuung are elected
to the Legislature.
It is certain that Mary Ann But
ler is the one, but she may get a
divorce from Pritchard and wed
another trader in case of an oppor
tunity. A person who woaJa mis
lead bis own followers and barter
them in an unholy alliance, would
not hesitato-a moment' to turn the
fSbles on Lis colleague in this trade.
Supposing that North Carolina
should be disgraced in the National
Senate by these two men; what could
be expected. If the Pop was honest,
the Repubican member would get
his vo e killed. If the Rep was
honest, the Pop would get his vote
killed and what about North Caro-
na
f?he would not only
of falling from 'grace,
be ashamed
but b3 uu
represented.
The marriage is over, but let not
the proposed bridal trip be taKen.
jt'vr what Yr may expect.
In another column will be seen
just what the Populist in Congress
tried to do.
We have no other way to judge
of what they would do were they ia
power than what their representa
tives have tried to do. They would
bankrupt everything. They would
push ahead their wildm.1 theories
and tomfoolery nntil not a single
vestige of a Republican government
would be left. -
In every State where they haye
gained con'rol, bloodshed, not con
fnsionhsorder snd pftuuetnoniurn
reigned supreme.
Could you expect anything better
from many, who so far disregarding
human rights and personal safety,
threaten ' bloodshed and persue
methods that disturb the peace of
the community and array oie class
of citizers against another.
My country, we must not be lost
to our sense of duty to such an ex
tent to let the mongrel set, who as
pire to it, to get control, of the.State.
It is no time to fool about it Your
own personal safety depends upon
your keeping from control of the
State these wild, f iratic theorists.
God pity North Carolina if such
parties get control of our Stated .
THE COfeT OF. EIVISU.
The New York World publishes
tables which show the relative cost
of living nnder the McKinley and
the Democratic tariffs. The prices
quoted are taken from . market re
ports, and they prove that the neces
saries of life are from 10 to 25 per
cent, cheaper now than they were a
year ago. In other words, a family
can now buy for a dollar as much of
what it needs as it could for $1.10 or
or $1.25 under the Republican
tariff. It costs less now to bnild-a
house, less to furnish it, less to sup
ply it, lees to clothe parents i and

The Progressive Farmer pui lishes
a letter this week from John
Wanamaker, written to W II Deaver,
ot Asheville, in which lie states that

duced the price of all goods In his
store to one-half of the price charged
before the tariff law went into operas

letter is the letter of a politician;

Ransom :3 the announcement of a

maker says hard times forced re

that the reduction in price on China
is lCper cent, whereas the tariff was
reduced about'50 per cent. The re
duction is "only on the duty part of
the goods," he says. Very well. This
is all Senator Ransom said, that the
duty was a tax. Mr. Wanamaker
says that the reduction is "only on
the duty part of the goods." That
fatal admission destroys the effect
of the political claptrap of Wana
maker's letter. Raleigh Observer.
