CONCORD, NOV , 5p 1896. 1 iJVEGRO INTOLERANCE. . There can be no denying the fact that few negroes are daring enough to vote the Democratic ticket how ever much they wish to. A few ; either deiy or evade them. The negro as a class' stems to think that be belongs o the Republican party acd that it is unnatural and mon strous for him to vote otherwise or . allow any one else to do so. The negro is today in much more dan ger of persecution or oppression frcrn his own race thanhe is fro,m l ie wliite- neighbors. If the same cruel intolerance were practiced aninst him by Democrats that they practice on each other it would raise a howl that would go from the centre to the circumferance of the land. - Ig is a fact not to be controverted that for two years straight along the negro lives among his white neighbors in peace and quietude and cm see no difference in the treat ir.cb't h 2 gets from Democrats anji other party adherents, .but about campaign time he is met in the dim shadows where men go to do evil, and he is stuffed full of the most unreasonable and absurd notions of the reat calamity that is to befall him if the wicked Democrats get in efficj. This we write because we feel that it is true, and we object to the placing of an easily duped class and a class easily made vicious in power over the race that seeks the welfare of every class of citizens. Let men elected by the play upon tie' passions and the prejudices of the ignorant come in and fid the offices and get the "pie" there is in it, but their consciences, if they have any, must, lash them whenever they look a patriot straight in the eje. The system by which imauy of the eastern counties are placed under the rule of the least worthy race, when race is more of a factor than fearou, is a crime that should be a burden to the mind of those who have perpetrated the evil. "' We say, Sister Stanly, what do you say; to removing that geographical 1 1' line to the east of Cabarrus and to , the west of your domain? We . ' . . . j - . reed you now in bur days of trou lie, W3'll help you back for it if you ever fall in evil times and we happen to be at lour best like you are now. Pending your consideration : j ust please accept our unfeigned thanks for saving the scalp of our friend and leader, Mr. C D Barringer. .Have not you a few votes to spare on some of the other offices that you could send across tne line in case of emergency ? ; : It is a singular fact that locomo tives destined for exceedingly fast runs require training as do race horses. The locc motive built for speed IB first put to work on sod e small branch lines, with light tracks, until it becDmes accustomed to running, and all the p rts are brought down to their proper bear ings Having undergone this period of probation it is taken on to more: important portions of the lines, and gradually worked up by increasing speed until it is giyen its place cn the line of the great flyers. To train a locomotive takes about two weeks. Press-Visitor. V - ' The loss of the entire ticket save Swink in Cabarrns is' humiliating and depressing, but there is noth ing in it to materially weaken the hands of 'Democracy. Chairman Young has worked with commenda. ble zeai and judiciousness and he sustained by every lively has been 1 . --..-).-,". Democrat and has the thanks and the gratitude of the Cabarrus Dem ocracy. The Young Men's Demo cratic Cjub ha3 been an important factor and deserves much credit. We hope a better day will crown their efforts yet. J We feel . 'that the results are due to a combination un accountable except from a mania of "to beat the Democrats" and get some offices that could not be gotten without such combination..'
