Stye (jtygrlotte bscrwr, CUAS. R. JONES, Editor 4c Proprietor FRIDAY, AUGUST 1, 1879. SHERMAN'S MAINE CAMPAIGN, THE RACE FOB CONGRESS Mf THE SIXTH If STRICT, X TEAR ; " HENCE. . ' Some weeks ago The Obsekvek took occasion to forecast ine : poHtlcjai nor scope of the sixth "district aVea henc and mentioned the' names of tengenjl bfe district whonad been It occurs to us that nothing more scandalous in its character has been saddled upon the present administra tion of the national government, than Secretary Sherman's recent campaign in Maine. The negligence and thievery in the Treasury Department as exhibit ed in the Glover report; the pardon of whiskey thieves, as in the days of Grantism; the lying civil service" or ders; the President's broken promises' and unblushing exhibitions of bad faith none of these, it seems to us, bad as hey are, could go further toward dis gracing the administration than at least one of the speeches made last week in Maine by Mr. Hayes's Secretary of the Treasury. Let us quote from the par ticular speech alluded to. Mr. Sherman, at Lewiston, Me., after discussing the financial question, the Glover report and other matters of national impor tance, proceeded, toward the conclu sion, to say : There are battles of the future which affect your speech and your honor more than all the money questions that I could discuss. There are questions ofsj the immediate future that rise above money and bonds, above property and profit There is the safety and suprem acy of the national government, which is again called into dispute by the very men who waged the war against us for four years; for doctrines which preced ed civil war; the very doctrine oifetate rights, which led to war and caused the loss of blood and treasure to an extent for which there is no parallel. They are again coming up for discussion and decision. You cannot avoid them. An honest Greenbacker to-day told me that while he had some doubts on the green back question, he had become alarmed at the danger of the Southern question. I tell you it is upon us. The Solid South is made solid by terror and violence. I pannot describe or depict the condition of the four or five million human beings we emancipated, who are now held in such terror and violence that they are practically deprived of the elective franchise. All that the Solid South wants is a few people in the North, on any kind of an issue, to act with them, and then through their caucus they can rule and govern this country, as they tried to through the Civil war. The im portant question of the future is the question of Southern domination. ; It does not comport well with our ideas of propriety to see a cabinet offi cer lay aside his official duties and step into the political arena, stripped and girded for the fight- It may be too strict a notion that which would keep thein from active participation as stump speakers in partisan canvasses but granting their right so to do, it must be granted that when they do the peo ple have at least the right to demand of them that they should be fair and truthful and, : decent. None of these three has Mr. Sherman been, as, witness the paragraph !; above. The country may weU, jtae Sryrjse fto read such words from him, and "well may it blush forf the lind partisanship, the falsehood, the demagoguery, the vehom and the knavery of its chief financial officer. These utterances and such as these we are accustomed to hear and expect to hear from the small-beer politicians and from certain disreputa ble newspapers of the Republican party, but they are not expected from Mr. Sec retary Sherman. He knows he tells untruths. He is guilty of falsehood and folly both when he tells his audiences that the "safety and, supremacy - of the national government- is. in-peril at the hands of Southern men, and he sins knowingly and maliciously and wieb iy against nis own conscience . an against the Southern time he says that section "are held lence that they.are pracU(lly deprived of the eleAive1hchi.SShanieJ 'shame UDOn Mr. Sherrnarf! fi TTe knoW; he tells what is noTsX If he had sinned - ignorantly he might havBbeen excusedJ but he has not; or if he had falsified this or any other prtitfular set of facts more ingeniously, he Iraiglit at least have been credited with ' superior cun ning while blamed for falsehood: but men living in the spoken of in connection with! the pos tion, only two of whom were thought to be candidates. Since that time the newspapers throughout the district, and we micht add throughout the entire State, have taken up the refrain, and the names pf half dozen other jgentle-' man have been aaaea to tne usu.- ine election does not occur until November 188Q, and it is much too early to" specu late upon what ought r oughts not" to be done in the meantime. The Ob server certainly ! does not wish to aid in bringing on a canvass at this time. It had no such, idea whenthf original article was' written. It has,howevei shown its journalistic judgment by dis cussing a matter which haj been eager ly read by the" people; and its object has been accomplished, ( Jf , public sen timent withinthe next twelve months jshaU crystalize in favor of any of the gentlemen1 named,' of upon some one( not yet named, and he is put forward a the nominee of the party, he shall have the cordial support of The Ob server. :r '- f In addition to the eclat which has ;been made over the subject The Ob server has raised a howl about its ears because it stated that CoL Walter L. fsteele was under a pledge not to be a candidate for the position for the en suing term, and Charlotte has been ac cused of fostering a ring to -defeat him or anybody else but a Mecklenburg J"an. l H" f f ill " . As to the first stat ementj Co, Steele will not deny that he has; so pledged himself, from the stump, in private con versations, and by private letters. Whenever he does so, Tjie Observer frill try and refreshen its memory, look up some old files of letters, and employ an attorney to inquire into the fact as to whether or not somebody has been counterfeiting that gentleman's ehirosrraphy. i i i ii , ?. as to xne seconu enarge mere are no grounds whatever for the statement, so far as we know. Mecklenburg Demo crats have stood solidly by the nominee of the party for eight Years; and until this year has asked no hand in the con gressional "divide." As the nartv in the district "has safely relied on !ahd re ceived our support in the past we think we can safely pledge that support in the future. ; ,So tar as the editor ot this paper is concerned, if he never gets a position as high as a country constable, lie will treasure tne expressions of friendship and good will that have been made since his own name has been mention ed in connection with the nomination, by his friends, and particularly by his brethren of the press, as long as grati tude shatHiave a place irr his heart E3r LONCiSTREET A !t TH E WAR t i Td ? $ : $ MrHenry- W prdy; has recently had an interview 1 with Cftm.
