DAILY CHARLOTTE O BSE EVER: TXJ E S DA Y , A UG U S T 5 , 1 8 8 4 . ii THE STATE CABIPAIGCoaclnded , , ,, . . : : was a war measure, and should be repealed. There were thousands of still house spies, gangers and collec tors, who were a stench in the nos? trila of the people. These officers ' were a nucleus around which the Republican black men rallied. .Take away these officers and there would be no Republican party. Take away these officers .and the people would no longer hear the hypocritical cant of a "free ballot and a fair count." The Republican party had declared for its abolition, but it had been driven to it by the Democratic party. ' .-' ; Gen. gcales next took up the plat form recently adopted at Chicago, and which his competitor had unqual ifiedly endorsed in his. letter of accep tance. He said; the question was again 'presented as to whether the ' blactr. man should "be allowed under the cry of - "civil rightSj": to force himself into our homes, our hotels, ., our cemeteries, our public means of conveyance, ; &c. - It had been the custom in North Carolina, f rom tima immemorial for every man to select his own associates." The ; Republican party said the Slacks and the whites must be on terms of civil equality in our households, our buryinggrounds, . our free schools, our churches, and our - theatres. Once a law had been passed by a Republican Congress which pro- ; f essed to give the . black man these rights, but the Supreme court of the ' United States had decided it to be un- - constitutional. Another bill had been introduced into , the United . States Senate by Mr. Geo. F. Edmunds, the Senator from - Vermont, which" re enacted the old law, and this law had , the endorsement of the Republican "party at Chicago. : The colored man , asked no such thing, but it had been thrown like a fire brand into the car '- vass when- all was quiet and peace ? between ; the races.; His competitor bad endorsed the whole Republican platform, and of ; course he included this plank. Here Gen. Scales related an anecdote of a young man who called i on, his sweetheart, who at s. ' supper poured him out a ; glasa of milk in which a bug-had dropped. . For the love of Nancy he drank the buttermilk, bug and alL The civil rights plank in the: Republican plat form was the bug, and Pr. York had - swallowed it out of love ior the Re publican party.;. Gen. Scales' remarks . at this point were particularly galling, : and the Coalition candidate winced ' under his fierce assault as he closed :his speech.1- ' '. .. '-'.; u' - " v v Gen. Scales' speech was calm and . dignified throughout. It was the - occasion of the opening of the. cam paign.; The two competitors had not previously met in debate. K "And neither could well measure the other's strength. ; It was Scales' appointment, : and of course he v had -the opening speech. It was not -until the rejoinder that he showed bis, masterly power of political debate.; In ' this sketch we have been compelled for .want of space, to " confine onrselves -only to 7 the main points of ., Gen. Scales' speech, bu$ as far ; as could we have endeavored without prejudice, to set it down aa-it occurred. We r will now attempt to make a short synopsis of - DB. YORK'S SPEECH. ; v At the conclusion of Gen. Scales' speech. Dr. Tyre York, the Coalition candidate, rose to reply. He stated - that he was the nominee of the lab- eral and Kepublican State conven- t tions for the , high . and T responsible office 'of Governor of the State" of - North Carolinaj and that he had " come by invitation to meet his com petitor, ! Gen. Scales; who was the candidate of . the Democratic . party : for- the same position. He was at t present the representative of - the - people in the Seventh Congressional District of North Carolina, and if the matter had been, left to his choice, he would have preferred to. remain; in " that position in preference to being - the Governor of , the State. The two parties, 'the liberal and Republican : ; parties, witn- . great Tinammity. thought he was a fit subject to repre- . sent them at Raleigh as the Governor of a great;state. Me. Hesitated he was no political aspirants-he' was urged " - to accent bv friends from all parties. , and he had finally consented to take the field. ,t zryM 'f 'ifiy-K ' - He had comei into the' canvass, and ' expected: to be with his competitor ' until the campaign was ended, and now and at all times he should be found -on -the sidef- the laboring , men or rionn uarouna. tuneers.tor - . Scales.). t i ' l .. - '. ' Before the war he was an old line ; Whig. After, the war he joined in -- ' with what was called the youne'De- : mocracy. which always had the eood . of the people at heart. He had served. . continuously in the state Legislature from 1865 to 1882. except the sessions of 1868 and 1869. He was just now ' where he proposed to stick. Not long - - since they proposed to read York out of the Democratic party, through the prohibition movement.'- Under the , anti-prohibition banner he beat Rob- bina and Uoofe, ( wno, as a Kepublican. was paid to run with Democratic money), and he could have beat a half - dozen other such - candidates. (Cheers), He stood upon the Liberal . platform,' endorsed by the Republic cans. "He wasn't sfraid of General - Scales he had never seen, the face of a man lie was afraid of. and he pro- - pos-jd to follow him to the end of the canvass and come out on too. - Scales was a- secession X3emoerai - before the war, -and he was a Horace . freely1 Eepublican after ha war. -i -9 .Independent -Republican party 4 iau. uawxi ureeiy m Cincinnati in .. i72, the National Democratic 'con1 ventidn endorsed ,him -at - Baltimore. and Scales swallowed him "bug and ail." . iV.''

Vance, the head of the Democratic party was trying to noia ton io txsi. Gen.. Scales had made war against him because he was in: favor of the negro. The negro vote in North Car olina gave ua tnree represeniauvea in Congress, and for his part y he was satished. -- - - r - j - He acknowledged that he had voted ksrainst anv compromise of the State debt; but while the bill was beforg the Leeisiature. ana ne saw 15 was going to pass, he offered twoiamendments to it. both of which were voted down. One was that the compromised debt should not exceed four millions of dollars, and the other that no portion of the school- fund should ever be used in payment of the interest or principal of the State debt, t Here he insinuateaithat a portion of tjhe school fund had been appliea to tne payment of thetmblic debtt ana lien, scales arose and demanded that he- should make the charge explicit. This . he finally did. - - - - - ' : Dr. xors tnen took up tus recora m Consress in favor of the abolition of the Internal Revenue, claiming that he had done ail he could : to accom plish either the repeal, or some mod lfication . of the " system in favor of the' people, and claimed that Gen.- Scales had been inconsistent m voting for Randall in caucus and afterwards for Carlisle. The Democratic Party had been inconsistent in its pledges to ' the people' in regard to this matter, as he attempted to snow - by; tne itecora. lie announced nimselr as in tavor of the repeal of the whole system, and for once he and Scales were together. (This latter statement didn't agree with the one just made, ; that scales was in favor of retaining the Internal Revenue, because he voted for Ajar lisle for Speaker.) : f ),,''' Here Dr. York took up the tariff question and declared' that he was in favor of protection, for protection's sake.: Fifty Democrats in the House of Representatives had voted against the Morrison bill and 7 they land their constituents would"; stand ibv Mr. Blaine.- He charged SenatorfVance with being a member of theCobden free trade Club, and of trying to foist English goods on America, in prefer ence to American Manufactures, and that English money was sent here to buy free trade votes for candidates for Congress. -Scales, he said, didn't know where he stood on the tariff, nenner aia ms party. , j He then took up the Blair educa tional school bill, rand claimed that although it had passed the Senate,' it had slept the - sleep of ' death in the House: where, there ilwtts 75 (Dem.) majority. He had done all he could to get it up, because he was in favor Tpf-" educating- everybody, j and he wanted the Federal " government to 4o it. - The bourbons of the Demo cratic party didn't want the poor peo ple educated, -they wanted only the coansn aristocracy eaucated. y Here Dr. York described the elec tion law in South Carolina, and said the government of the United States was notoing to sit quietly by and. see naif , the people disfranchised.

' ' , It was the first '-meeting between the candidates, and as it was Scales' appointment, by: courtesy be took the lead. He had to make his speech without reference to the political attitude of-his opponent, because he didn't know just where to find him..

Scales may have had, either as to his physical capacity, or his power to grapple with his wily opponent on the political hustings, may now be thrown to the winds. He is a giant, andw'ill scoreh Dr. .York, as few men have ever been scorched before, n; , . ... . We have reported both the speeches in substance just as they were deliv ered . For the sake of brevity some miner points may have been left out. but we have endeavored to be truth ful juad just to ' both speakers.. , Dr. York, in his rejoinder, threw ; down the gauge of battle to the newspaper press of the State, and we now prom; ise him to take it up; but we have not attempted to misrepresent him, nor shall we attempt to ,do so.- We ex pect, to help to tan every inch of his epidermis between now and the day of the election, but oar licks shall be struck above the belt. . i i s i-;" For the.present we say: - Greeting to the Democracy of North Carolina in that they havelan able, competent expounder of the principles of our party, as a candidate for Governor, in the person of Alfred M.
