Hear in mind reader, especially if
you are not a , Democrat and v are
open to conviction, that thimesiit
this campaign involve a principle
more than that, they are issues of
vital importance, effectiui? tbe,el
f are tiiid interests of - every voter.
The contest between "Mr. ! Cleveland
and his oponent,who will b named
at Chicago, will be a contest for the
. principle of reduction in " taxes or a
continued policy of high taxes
which accumulates each year a sur
plus of nuny million.
The Republican party says, vir
tually, continue protection and a
high tariff; lock up the millions
yearly in the treasury vaults, tuke it
from the people; and we will pro
ride or create wars by which'' it can
be nsal. .' .
The Dmuocratic party mt re
duce taint ion. We are getting in
more mon 7 than we need to run
the government.- We will not col
lect no much We will have a re
venue reduction. It will relieve the
Treasury t all dilficultie and give
a healthy tone to finances, it will
make a v:ut improvement in onr
civil service possible and necessary.
It will lei;d fci more careful legisla
tion; to a more ryxleniatic improve
ment of our rivers and barb ire; to
better plans in reconstructing our
navy, and it will trwu the influence
of the j'dix;r in every department
of p bite Mftirs.
Thee nm Hie pomtions of the two
parties in a nubdielt. Which is
likely to le a benefit to the people?
To which will you give your iu
fluenr? With which will ton vote?
The lI"ni!Ucns have lieen so
plaeml th it ther cauuot furnish a
candidate who represent a red u lion
of the levy of 71,U,CXX without
lightening whiskey and tobacco.

Thi selection of John M. Thnr-
ton as temporary chairman of the
Chicago convention seems very ap
propriate. He is a Nebraska rail
roud lawyer. The Kepublu-ans have
special care of, corporations and
monopolies. .'!

. Thkkr is considerable talk m to
. Mr. Dockrya sih'uce. He has not
yet accepted the nomination for
Governor. We are informed that
he hasn't teen atkeL How. can a
man accept a thing not tendered to
him? It appears that the commit
tee has not "officially" notified him.
If this le so the committee d'X-s not
.. in to be in any hurry, and we
don't suppose there is any necessity
for very mucfi hate.
Kuin Docousa, in the Chh ago
convention, said that he wanted the
bloody shirt to w ave just as Ion if as
blood is found on it. He also said
thai the Republican party was al-
wnys faithful to its friends, and in
the war its friends had black faces.
That is more than Fred Douglas
can say for himself. He didn't re
gard his black fare friends good
enough to stay with. He deserted
his own nice by marrying a while
woman.

The Danville Register i assured
that the prohibitionists of North
Carolina will draw as largely from
the Republican as from the Dnno
cratie vote in the coining election.
We hardly think this ' will lie tlji
case. A Republican will he a fie
publican, and it is our impression he
will gr with his party in this in
stance, prohibition or no prohibition.
Of course there will be instances
where they will not fly the track
but stiek to the third ticket now in
the field, but they are few and far
bet ween, ":&d Yel" it may be the
policy with some of them to en
courage, the third party movement
s i"irienl to beat Democracy. With
llfpublicans now it is "uny thing
Lord, to beat dem Dimruycrats!"
j'uch tilings have happned. ' It is
jMHsible for them to happen again.
, The Register reason very logically
upon this biatter. It says, but let
suppose that by running a sep
arate ticket the prohibitionists should
succeed iu defeating the Democratic
ticket and saddling a Republican
government on North Carolina
Could the temperanee cause ever re
cover froin such a blow? , Forsever
al years the State of North Carolina
was down trodden by tho Republi
can parfy; rascals and thieves got
control of the treasury and stole all
the mouey thy could lay their hands
upon and then ran away with the
booty. The best people of theState
finally rne up in their .might aud
drove the dishonest ad venturers from
powrr.siaee which time North Caro
iina has had honest and economic
government and the old State has
blossomed like the rose. I Another
era of Republican rule would put
the State ten years back in the pro
gress it is now making and would be
a blight and a bitter curse ten times
as bod aa the liquor eviL The pro
hibitionists would have to bear the
blame and the cause of temperance
would receive its dath blow in that
State, .The conclusion of the whole
matter is that temperance has no
piai or lot with politics and it is
a! way a dangerous experiment to
force the question as an issue in a
contest between the two political
parties.
A coRiufustigsT of the Lynch
burg Virginian, writing . about the
commencement exerews of Rollins
Institute, thus alludes to a North
Caroliuaeducator: The celebration
of the literary sociitiesof the school
at night, was the closing feature of
the series; nor did these fail todecj
ly .interest. Ileginning with and
exceedingly ornate and jwliidied ad
dreMon "Liturature, the learned
Frof. Hume.of ChaHHill, N.C,
for an hour held spell bound his
listeners, and frvely sustained his re
putation as oueof the foremost Eng
lish scholars of the land."
,
There is a gramdiopper visitation
in Southern Indiunt, and as a con
sequence fears are entertained that
the corn crop will le cut short and
thus curtail the whisky supply. The
grasshopprrs don t seem td have a
special foiidueMt for Kentucky.
- WltY the R publicans, in looking
almut in the K)littcal winmIs for pre
sidential limber, have overlooked
Claus Sprerkcls, the great sugars
speculator, we do Hot exactly under

sugar free atd get all the benefit of
