SENATOR V-ANCE'S LETTER- TO THE PEOPLE O V NOliTH CAROLINA. In response to the following letter from Mr. Simmons, Senator Vance issues the accompanying address to the people of North Uarohna : Raleigh, N. C, August 10, '92. Hon. Z. B. Vance, Gombroon, N. O.: My Dear Senator : In common with all the people of North Caroli na, I greatly deploro your inability to tako part m tho pending campaign. It is an inestimable loss to tho. part and the ;pooplo, for I noed not" tel you the -eonfidenco and alfection which : the people of North Carolina entertain for you would secure for you from them a hearing snch as they would accord to but few in tho fetute. " It occurs to me, while your health will not permit you to meet the peo ple face to face upon the stump, a letter from you,4 reviewing the whole situation, and ? discussing the ques tions! which aro : uppermost in the minds of tho people, especially the causos of the agricultural prostration now existing, and tho relief which would bo afforded through the enact ment of Kiich tariff and linancial leg islation as the Democratic party pro poses, would bo carefully and con siderately read by all tho people of North Carolina una would uo a great' deal of good at this time. Dttch .a Jetter, I am persuaaod would have immonso weight with a largo number of people who aro now houestly wavering as to what course to pursue in tho coming election. Of course I do not want to overtax you, oven to ao tins groat service to tho1 party ana the people. 1 trust you will not undertake it unless your health is fully equal lo the task. Sincerely joining with all tho peo ple of North Carolina iu their anx iety about your health, and in the earnest hope that you may be speed ily restored, 1 am yours truly, X. m. oimmons, uiiairman. My Fbllow Citizeks : For manv vears past I have been in the habit of visiting you in person i - i- l . : i i aurjng lniporuintuuinpaiguu nu uu dressing you upon the political issues of the time. Heine: on this occasion prevented this privilege by the con dition of my lieaitn, and earnestly believiner that tho Questions to be de cided bv our November elections are of vital importance to the public welfare, I am induced to contribute in this way my share in the discus- sioa of them. .. . . : r- ..' I regard the situation aa most critical. ' Since 18G0 the legislation of our country has been almost exclusively within the power oi one poiiucar party. Naturally it has ceased to be coneral in its beneficence and has becoma local and partial in tne ex treme. The law-making power has become tho fearfully efficient imple ment of tuch classes, corporations cliques and combinations as could by fair means or loul obtain control f it. It ha3 been made to subserve purely personal ends. In divors ways tho taxuur power of the crovernmcnt has. been perverted from public to privato purposes: money is levied thereby to enrich manufacturers, to Rnnnrsa rival rv in business, and in every conciovaole way to help the favored lew at tuo expense oi tne many. The varied corrupting influ ences unon tho business world arisinc: from this legislation produce their natural eiieet. me , classes wnose business " was thus favored flourish apace, whilst tho nniavored nave ex perienced in the midst oi peace and plenty all the losses and hardships PLYMOUTH, N- C, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30,1892.. which aro commonly felt only in times of public calamity ; and tho extraordinary spectacle is presented of a nation whose ajnrrcsrato woa th is rapidly and vastly increasing. whilst the individual wealth of its chief toilers and wealth -producers is diminishing m proportion thereto. From the Republican party, with its disregard of tho limitations the tonstitution and its natural ciepen dence for support upon the people whom it had enriched, all of this corrupt legislation ha3 proceeded Without it there was. nothing evi done that was done. . It follows a3 an undeniable truth, that whoever directly or indireotly upholds, helps or supports that part is a friend to the corruptions wbici it lias produced, and is an ' enemy to those who would repeal that legisla tion and Teform the abuses fonuded upon it. There is no escape from this. . The Democratic party, on the con trary, believes in tho strict . limita tions of the Constitution, .and has as a party, steadily opposed all abuso of tho taxing power or any other power oi the general government for private purposes, and has unceasingly advo cated the most absolute and perfect equahtytf all eitizens m tho legisla tion of our country. There is not a single wrong or in justice of which complaint is made in our laws for thirty years past which can justly be charged to the Demo cratic party. Not one. It has over been a Dreak-water against tho tvran nical tendencies of the Republicans; and though in a minority has been able to prevent some of the worst legislation ever 'attempted, and to modify other laws which in their origiual iniquity would have been intolerable. This statement of the acts and purposes of the two great political parties cannot bo truthfully denied. ISow what is the situation? What is it the manifest duty of our people to aoin the coming elections: Tho two great political parties into which our people aro mainly divided are onco more in the fiold with their platforms of principles and their candidates, Stato aud Federal, there on. The KepuiDican proioss allot iheir old doctrines from which have come the evils of which the people complain; they glory in that abuse of the taxing power which has made a few rich and millions poor, and seeking new fields of injustice aud oppression, they openly declare their intention to take from the States the right to control tho election of their own representatives, which is the chief - bulwark of their rights and liberties. Tho Democrats re-affirm their ad herence to the Constitution, their opposition to tariff robbery, to bank- ing monopoly ana to corporate op pression in all its forms; and their desire to leave the power to control elections wjioro the Constitution left it, and where it has resided for more than ono hundred years, primarily it would secai that no Democrat, and especially ' Sonthern Democrat, could hesitatofor a'siugle moment as to which of these partios deserye his support. ' Hut a new parry n:i3 arisen wnicu is endeavoring to make the people believe that the iiomocratic party is no longer to be trustod. Tho argu ment to prove this is a travesty on mi i j common souse: j.nac oecauso zor thirty years thoy have as a party steadily opposed all abuses and have not been able at any time to prevont or reform them, therefore it is no onger worthy of the support of those who desiro reform. The meaning of thU is, the Democratic party has been guilty of being in a minority. Its sin consists in not having done that which it could not do ! Then et it bo condemned, whilst the Re publican party, which has had tho wwer and actually did an these things, and still had tho power to undo them and doe3 not, is acquitted. Nay, wo will help it to keep in power by betraviug and destroying its oniy " IfvM m ll. 1 - i. euemy. ri'.ereioro, as ins ieniourai.- ic party, with its vase organization in everv State, county and township in tho United States, with its control of one branch of Congress and com prising in the popular vote a largo majority of. all the people , in the Union, has not been strong enough leretofore to effect the reforms tor which it ha3 labored and wishod, being without the Senate and execu tive, they claim the only chanco for reform is to vote for tho candidates of this Third party, whose existence in tho national government and power to control legislation are evi denced by threo or Jour members of he iiouso oi Representatives ana two in tho Senate ! CONTINUliO ON NEXT TAGE.J REPUBLICANISM UNDER NEW NAME. Italelgh Chronicle. In the address isiUf dJy Weaver and Field we find these werds : "We are pained to discover In the public mind ot tho Southern states through which we naye passed a widespread Iobb of eenfi aence on the part ef the people iu the la tegrity of the jsdges ot elections of receiv ing tne ballots of the people a&d counUn them for the candidates of their choice. W think that this evil must be corrected by tne mtflligsnce and integrity of the reopl of the country, otherwise scenes of violeuce and perhaps bloodshed may follow these efforts of parties in charge Nftht billot boxes , to defraud the will of the voter. They will lead to a serious collision, aud mat qaioiiy." It is known that the election Jmaetinery ef the Southern States is under the control of the democratic party, where it ought to be, and because negroes are not appointed inspectors and judges of our elections, with Federal soldiers to' guard them, the republicans have for years been proclaim iug throughout the North and West that elections in this section were not fairly eondacted. Now comes the third party and makes the same false charge against the Southern people through it candidates for President and vice-President. "Weaver and Field would have it under stood that they have just made the disoov cry that public sentiment in the South had but little confidence ia the integrity of the judges of onreleoticns. This new disoovery has apparently so startled them that the deemed it necessary te invoke pnblio interest through a pubho address, and te threaten the South with "serious collision" - if votes are not oonnted at our future eleotions according to their notions. . Were votes counted aocording. to the notion of Weaver, eleotions iu the South would most probably be amenable to his charge. It is because our eleotions are rairly conducted that this noted demagogue understands that a large majority of the votes ia the Southern States will bo polled against him. Weaver comes to the South under a new name lor repuoncamsm. lie raiors a Force bill but he would avoid detection, through the evidence of his being in har mony with the republican party oa this subjeot is too clear, in the extract we give, to admit of a doubt. The tax piyera ef the South, General Weaver, are very well satisfied with their expuctive State governments, and when voting timo ooznos you will leara that they believe that yon have wantonly published a villainous libel against them. When you read the returns from the Southern States, on the morning of the 9th ef November, doubtless you will say that clecions in tho South have been carried by fraud, but peo ple of sense and honor know that South ern tax-payers have never long tolerated in office thieves and plunderers.

"The republican party seems to ba irre. vocably committad to the passage cf the Federal election bill, generally knovrn s the force bill, and although it must be ovident to the most patriotic and tkeujf ht ful member cf that organization that it is a piece of political foolishness, only equal led by its mendacity, there has sppeared tor tliota no cxeane Irotu its advocacy. It ia an impeachment of the good sense of the republicttti leaders that they phocld pr3d tho oonmuoration of no outtmvo and n wise at thij time or any other time, capeoi t 1 ! 1 A 1 J J . any in view oi tue iact, now apparent l every one, that it absolutely prevents their party receiving a single electoral vote in third ef the States cf the Union ; and al though kn partisans we may rjioa at thsir folly, yet as citizens we deplore their threatened attack upon the free ins'.itu uons or our eonniry, never Dcrora so 101 periled. The bill has bmn well described us a "menace to liberty" the liberty of the nortu as well as the south, the liberty of the blaok as well as the white, the liberty oi every wmte citizen, no matter to what party he may happen to belong. Whenae oomes this objectionable scheme for federal interference in our elections, acid who aro originators and sponsors? Until recently the author of tho measure was supposed to i8 tne emcnently respectable Henry Uabot LiOdge, of M&Sdachnsolu, who introduced tho bi'l. But not long ago, a gentleman not unknown to fame, Mr. John I Daven port, ef Kew York city, the ehief Federal supervisor ct elections, and also a United States commissioner, a diminutive, polite and amicable person, "as mild mannered man as ever scuttled a ship or out a throaf. came to Washington and appeared before the committee ou immigration ia behalf of another project, dear to his heart te pro mote "the purity of eleotions." and I had the honor of examining hirn, and he stated ia answer to my question, to the great sur prise of the pubho, that ho was the bo! J and sole author ot the notorious foroo bill The borrowed plumage was immediately stripped irotn tne proud peixoa or Air. Honrv (Jabot Lodze. and the bill has since been properly styled "the Davenport force bill." Permit me, in this conEectioa, to further state that Mr. Davenport, on this same oooasiou. with brutal frankness, avowed his purpose to have his bill intro duoed again wheuever "a favorable oppor. tunny" should occur, and when asked what he meant by "a favorabio opnortu nity," he nnblushinly replied: "Whoa the republicans shall again have a majority is both houres of Congress"--an event not likely to occur. I trust, for many years to come, in tne open and public exprem ion of his Intention to press the measure acaut it most be assumed that he spoke iu bthalf of hia party and relliicted Us hentiments. The people of the several States will hesi tate lmig be fere they consent to the adoption of "Daveuporf's" election methods in their respective localities. I have Ht the timo to night to enter into any elaborate presen tation of tne details ot thin bill. It is suf ncient for us to Know tnat tuo only pur pose of the measure is to control for partisan advantage, our elections, State and federal. Tho bill U a desperate at tempt to prop up tne tailing rortuues of a once great politioal party : it was conceived in political auimosiiy, is urged from the narrowest aud worst of motives aud is ua' worth v a place auion the statutes of the Amarican republic."
