Let every l- . l i I. : I. oici who iienru ins spi-rn on 7usday remember that this man speaks one w a v and intends to vote another. Mr. Davis is indeed quite a good speaker, a nice, intelli gent gentleman, and we take it for granted that after his assertions he will come out on the side of white suprema cy and cast his vote with the other intelligtnt white men of the State, and forever htanip out the curse of negro domination in the Old North State. .Mr. Bower followed in a very convincing speech for nearly two hours that was indeed a marvel of elo quence, and power, convinc ing in ever. paragraph that the hope of the srhite peopl ..t v...'.u ir ....t: .j M ;iu ill .

Pursuant to pr. vious no- ti-e tlit Democratic Conven-'name Hon of the lOih Judicial Dis trict met in Hickory Inst Thursday, and was called to order by Chan man Selfof the executive committee. All the counties compos ing the district were iepre-J sented by regular delega tions, and as no contests were reported, a permanent organization was soon effect-j ed by the election of Col. 1. .1. Sinclair, of McDowell, as chairman and F. M. Williams, of Charlotte, Secretary. The most important busi liens to come before the Con vention was the nomination of a candidate for Superior Court f u dtre, and ns it was understood that Ituike.Cald well, and Wntang.i counties would present candidates for the honor, large and enthus iastic delegations were pres ent from these counties, Ca tawba county also had a strong delegation and would present a candidate, and Mc Dowell although haying id candidate was well represent ed Tht- entire votingstivngth of the district, was found to be 199 votes requiring 100 yotes to make u nomination. The roll of counties as called for nominations, and S J. Erwin. of Burke, was named by Col. iT. S. Pear-, son, L- Wakefield, ofCald well bj Mr. W. C. New land, W. B.

Editor Democrat, After conversing with quite a considerable number p f leading republicans herea bouts, I feel encouraged for the reason that mostofthem are going to vote forthecon stitutional amendment or at least thej say they will. One, however, said thatnone of his ancestors were demo cratsbut whigs, and it could no't be reasonably expected that he would vote hr adem ocratie measure. I told him that the issue was in no sense a politica' one, but even if it was, I could trust fin old whig to vote intelligently upon it, as the predorninat ing feature of the uld whig platfotm was: "Let Ameri cans Mile America," while hit ter day republicanism su,s "let Africans rul" But the sisrns are more hopeful, and are yetting more so every day. The intelligent portion ortl.e republican purty are getting tired of the ignorant negro in politics, and they say so. 1 lie recent o a d breaks ot some of the R-p Pop leaders is having its tf fi ct among h,onest men of all parties, and ihese lenders ??fe growing desperate oyer 8-e-hig their chickens coming home to roost. The best "lenient of the western repub lican pfirtv say they aie white, and that they will act with the white element of all parlies. It is amusing to hear them discuss the incen diary utterances recently in dulued in at Newton by E. Blacker Spencerburn. They say that that asinineblather skite bad jnpt as well sit down now. Well, he does re mind rne more of the dog star than anything else; ,ja baleful influence is only felt periodically, lint he has sue cecded in snuffing himself out with the rispectablt portion of his own party and the rest of mankind. He would sub stitute ouiiers tor nanus so far as democrats are concern ed, but thank (Jod he has no !leciiit following among white people anywhere. His lease is short, and he knows ! it.

' Some say that the Philip pines are not fit for self gov ernment and at the same time claim that niggers are. Now my an vice to you is to yon is to takeaway the white boldiers from the I'hillippine islands and replace them with nigger.. North Carolina can furnish 17,000, and the oth er States in the South each as many in proportion. Let the niggers be armed with ra zors and the Filipinos with boomerangs or whateverthey can get; turn them loose and gat out of the way. -Give both sides your benevolence, they will furnish the assimi lation. Then they will have to its fullest extent what your excellency calls beneyo lent assimilation. What do vou think of the plan? J. W. Todd. Jtfferson. March 24" HARRIED.
