We don’t ever recall a time in
the history of North Carolina
when the people were manifesting
so little interest in politics. The
fact is the time has come when
the people have found the folly 1
of making so much demonstration ^
over politics. There was once a
time in this Commonwealth when
the people would begin to order
whiskey (or buy it rather, for
in those days we had it right at
home,) about a month before
the campaign would open, and
the politicians would all meet
and drink and let drink. We
