January, 1880, The Observes, neyer neutral, published these sentiments tin der its editorial head: "The Obsebveb has been put down as unfavorable to the sale proposed by the syndicate. This is not strictly its position. Where we do stand may easily be denned. If. after an investi gation of the whole subject by some commission representing the best in terests of the State, it is found that it will be to the advantage of the State to sell out her unfinished undertaking, then we are for the sale. We would not like to see the State's interest in this grand North Carolina enterprise sacrificed in the interest of the New York syndicate, the Mud Cut" boom, or any other "boom," unless the real nterests of the State are to be subserved . thereby. We said, and we repeat, if it is a good thing for the New York syn dicate to buy Ihe road, it might be a good thing for north uaroiina to hold on until she can command her own terms. We do not wish to be fright ened into any line of policy which may be regretted in after years. If this means opposition to the sale of the Western North Carolina Bailroad, then so be it; if on the contrary, as .we think, it is merely following out-p ro dent counsels In the interests off the people's property' then we take the responsibility.- The road will be finished to Ashemli withiif;a ffew inonths.
