SMMBISaOS, AmmIM Edltar. raiew orstrsacairnoa : Cne Year, In Advance, $150 Jix Monthi. 75 Stand up for Principles. A party backed by a majority of the popular rote, although retarded in its purposes this time by the elec toral college, has erery encourage ment to stand up for the right and contend for the principles which will eventually triumph. TheDemocraU have every reason to continue the fight, so ably begun, against mon opolies and high tariff. The next four years must be spent in enlight ening the prople as to the benefits of reform. As a gentlemen remarked to the Charlottesville (Va.) Chronicle, tne efforts to boom business in certain quarters since Harrison's election, as evidenced by the advance of wages in certain iron mills in the North, is one of the weakest subterfuges of the republicans to show that Har rison's election means a return to business prosperity. When it is re membered that very many of the "protected" industries in the coun try cut wages, and some shut down just previous to the election, and that the wages paid to artisans and la borers was a sum which gave them a bare existence, it is easily seen that this preconcerted action in advanc ing wages was a part of a political movement, which party on the earth at the present day or in any age of the world, except the repub lican party of the United States, would have had the face or the hardihood to attempt What did it matter to the stockholders of the great corporations, that to accom plish political end; to perpetuate a paity of plunder in power; to pro tect the iniquitoas combinations against the people that some thous ands of laborers and their families should be reduced to penury? And how magnanimous must their act in "advancing wages" seem to starving wretches who are dependent upon the whims of these prominent fac tors of the republican party. It only proves the oft repeated asser tion of a gentleman that there- publican party may, in its personal ity, be an angel in heaven or a devil in hell, to accomplish its purposes The last thing in their thoughts is the good of tne country, and patriot ism has no place in their catalogue ofvirtoes. The most absurd thing (3s absurd to themselres as it is to the honest millions who hare been systematically robbed for so many years) is the cry of "fraud," set op by such creatures as Mahone a man who has not an honest or a generous impulse in his nature. And he is only one of the lesser rights of this great party a mere reflection of the greater orbs, Blaine, Sherman k Co. These being facts, what is left for the Democratic party to do? Surely, not to join hand-in-hand with these pervert rs of honest gov ernment The only Lope of the nation is through the democratic party. The principles of the demo cratic party are as eternal as truth itself, and they will never die. He- cause, in the endeavor to render justice to all men, the democrats will not turn aside from truth and right even to retain control of the government and are easily under- mined and overthrown by its more designing enemy, is nothing against its character as the true party of the people and the exponent of all that is fair, and honest, and just in gov ernment Thus it behooves the members of that party to felly again and again to the support of its prin ciples, and there will come a time when they kcst prevsiL An exchange says there are things a hvel-headed human being should never do. A mong these is to walk oo the railroad track, to at tempt to get on a moving train, to point a g'tn or pistol at another, to ut bis name on another man s note, keen Lit sarin its in an old aLnrk. tag tinder his bed, to play game of cnance wuo prepossessing stranger, to run i or omea wnen h has a pay. tog situation in privsle life, or call a bigger man than himnelf a liar. Mr. Cleveland. Henry Clay said, "1 would rather be right than President" We doubt not he meant it and it immortalized him. It has been flying at the head of papers from that day to this, and people have treasured in their in most hearts this noble expression of the gallant "Harry of the West," as he was lovingly called and is loving ly remembered. But there is a vast difference between saying and doing the right; and Cleveland stands forth as a man who did the right when President and thereby lost another term. When his cabinet assembled for the consileration of the pauper pension bill, to a man they advised him that a veto would be right but very inexpedient His reply was A11 1 wish to know is what is right" He vetoed it and a howl followed. Again, his message upon the tariff was right, but admitted inexpedient Yet he says he "would do it again." Take him all-in-all we have never had a truer, noble, more honest or more able President, and he has set a standard that his successor must seek to measure up to or suffer the consequence. But all that is past We may expect sectionalism, and there is one parmount duty for all North Carolinians. Look to our State and let us notify our leaders, that as in the days of the Roman Republic, 'They shall see that no harm befalls our old Mother.1' The South has been attacked by .writers of every grade, but by none more unworthy and despicable than Geo. W. Cable of Southern birth and an alleged Confederate. Every low order politician, such as Foraker and Foster, born North, and Mahone and Wise and such ilk living South, have villified us; but fiendish hate is illustrated by Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Whenshe speaks of the yellow fever at Jacksonville, she invokes the muses to point and venom to the shaft she huilsata suffering people in whose behalf the sympathies of many noble men of the North as well as the South were enlisted. If such poems and senti ments were to appear in the South in regard to our Northern friends, they would send op a howl and de clare that we were in a state of re bellion and would want to call out the troops to suppress us. Above aU things boys, culti vate the virtue of truth. It is the only thing that will wash. If you don't stick to this plain and simple old accomplishment yon are bound, some time or other, to get into tiouble of being ''found out" And after yon 'are "found out" a few times, yon will find that nobody will believe any thing you say. And then yoa will not think nearly so highly of yourself as you would like to do, and the estimate of the world opon you will be but low. For nobody respects a liar. He may be liked a little. He may make himself agree able to a degree at times, but no one will take any real, sound account of him. In short he will soon fall in to the station ot a nobody a some thing that scarcely anybody likes to be. And then above all, the Lord that sits in the Heavens will know him for just what he is. 1 The Independent Chicago News hears that Editor Shepard is "hustling for the Italian Mission." Make it envoy to the North Pole and no dissenting voice will be raised. If Harrison were to get off on Foreign Missions Foraker, Ingalln, Sherman, Blaine and one or two Others, wouldn't we have a peaceable country? It would be hard on the mission they filled, though.
