GOLJ5SBORO, N. C. SEPT. 20, 1894, A PATRIOTIC (?) AMERICAN. Ex-President Harrison, in his recent picayune speech at Elkins, West Va., in the interest of the coal combine ard monopoly, said: "Is this a time through the cheap ocean tariffs to bring into competition with your products the cheap coal of Nova Scotia? I speak as a patriotic American who feels an interest in the hon est people." We are gratified to learn from Jthe lips ot this distinguished per son, that he is not only "a pat riotic American citizen," but that, notwithstanding the superiority of his blood and his exalted station, he yet feels an interest in the honest people! But who are the "honest peo ple" for whom this interest is felt? And whose "product" is it that he would protect against competition! The West Virginian coal fields belong to one or more capita lized corporations, and the gen tlemen composing these are "the honest people" Mr. Harrison had in mind; and it is their ' 'product" he would protect against Nova Scotian competition at the ex pense of other a"id worthier in terests. By the way, the hideous anom oly of Government aid to capital istic monopoly and extortion, is about played out. Mr. Harrison should read up. The "honest men," of the coal combinations, who have enlisted his sympathies, are but as one to thousands of honest poor who are entitled to coal without having the price of it increased by tariff protection. DO OUR DUTY IS BEST. It has been said that "duty is the sublimest word in " our lan- "guage"; and no one knows the force of this truth better than the editor of a newspaper who seeks to do the right and who, therefore, is often required, through a conviction of dty, to chastise where it would be more pleasant, and perhaps profita ble, to praise, and condemn where it would be more agree able to approve. The youngman who starts out in life with the idea that any thin is justifiable which will help him along is unstable as a guide in politics or otherwise and is making straight for moral ruin Without fixed political and mora' convictions, without that which we call principle, nothing that is worthy to be called success can be achieved. The world is as good as it is because there haye been and are so many women who made a sense of right the rule of their conduct, who did their duty even when it was hard and seemingly unprofitable to do. The names in history which are dearest to us are not those of persons who were distinguished alone for power of intellect, but those of the true and faithful, those who were great because they were good, those who struggled and suffered for the right. A false public opinion too of ten puts a premium on rascality by praising and rewarding those who accomplish large results by vicious methods-. 7 Society honors wealth even when it has been ac quired by questionable, or even by disreputable, methods. The populace is apt to prefer the shrewd and unscrupulous poll tician to the statesman who scorns deception and trickery And yet we must depend after al for government and well regu lated society upon those who cherish old-fashioned views of "honesty and virtue. There can be no new fashion in such things. They are based on eternal prin ciples and the individual or the . -a 1 . iV nation wno aoanaons xnose prin ciples drifts inevitably to mora. rum. The noblest ambition is not to make a name in the world, not to sain power, nor to accumulate monev. but to live so that when the end comes one may look back without regret or , remorse and feel the blessed assurance that he has done his duty. It is better to be right and seem to accomplish little than to suc ceed by short cuts and crooked dealiner. The men and the women who do their duty, who love right be cause it is right, and who make no compromise with wrong, are th salt 91 the earth. GRAND DEMOCRATIC RALLY. The Democrats , of Goldsboro Township meet and organized a Campaign Club. Hundredsin at tendance Hon. F. A.Woodard's Great Speech Pursuant to the call issued by President Broadhurst, of the Goldsboro Democratic club, the Democrats of this city and town ship assembled at the court house Monday night by the scores, thereby .manifesting the -lively interest they are. taking in the political destiny of our county and State in the campaign that is now fully upon us. And all who attended were indeed more than repaid for their patriotism and made stronger in the faith of Democracy by the superb speech of Hon. F. A. Woodard, candi date for Congress, and present member from this district, who for nearly two hours reviewed the history of the Dem ocratic party, its past, its present and its future, and show ing and proving it to be the party for the people: the party of honest purposes and . current principles - the party of equit able administration and econ omical expenditure of pub lic funds; the party of pledges fulfilled and promises sustained. And all through his splendid speech he was regaled again and again by hearty rounds of ap plause from his enthusiastic au dience. It was a great occasion for Democracy in this vicinity, and the general verdict was that the speech was one of the very ablest and best ever delivered here, and all who heard it ex press the earnest desire to have Mr. Woodard make that same speech in every township in the count3T,for no man who was ever a Democrat and who has strayed off, can hear that speech and remain longer out of the Democratic fold, if he be honest in his desire to secure good gov ernment, which alone can be ob tained by and through the Dem ocratic party. Immediately after "Mr. Wood ard's speech the campaign club was re-organized "for the war," by the re-election of Capt. D. J Broadhurst as President, and Mr. A. B. Hollowell as secretary. The names of over two hundred members were enrolled, which is the finest record yet made on the first night by a campaign club here. Minister and Mrs. Issaac P Gray gave an elaborate diploma tic reception in the City of Mex ico the other day, at which Min ister Issaac P. whirled Mrs. Diaz through the mazes of the dance, while President Diaz whirled Mrs. Gray. Speaking of the entente cordiale, did it ever have a more binding exemplification than this! If so, when, where, and by whom ! A dispatcli to a London news association from Montevideo as serts that 58 Brazilians were exe cuted by order of President Pei xoto on April 2'5 last. The execu tions took place in the Portress of Santa Cruz. The condemnec men had no trial. Among the number were military and naval officers whose names are given in the Dispatch, commencing with that of Marshal Almeida da Gama The sugar-planters of Louis iana, are threatening to vote the Republican ticket hereafter on National issues, on account o the abolition of the sugar bounty by the Democrats. It's a free country, and they can vote as they please, but if they can't pro duce sugar on the same terms that our Southern farmers pro duce cotton, etc., tne genuine American alternative is to quit, Privileged classes have had their day under a protracted period of Republican misrule, and the long neglected interest of the masses are now being looked after by the party that has been restored to power for that purpose the party of the constitution and of the people.

We give below side by side, Marion Butler's editorial on Judge Connor in this weeks Caucasian, - and Judge Connor's letter to his old friend, Judge Howard not "the machine," in which he expresses himself free- y on Democracy and the Popu- listic nominations.

A par ty that will abuse one of the best, if not the best, man in it because he will not sacrifice his manhood for tho seliisk desires of the machine, is a party that is dan gerous to human lioeri7y.

Judge Connor's letter de clining the Popu list nomination. The m achine threatens Judge Connor that unless he follows the course marked out by them that he will kill himself with his own party. The machine mis took and underat ed their man when they used this ar gument on Judge Connor. He can never be moved by arguments that ap peal to the sordid and selfish ele ments of human nature. Judge Con nor would sacrifice himself politically a dozen times be fore he would do anything that did not. measure up to the highest sene of the duty of citi zenship irrespect ive of party. Ma rion Butler's edi torial on Judge Connor in the Cau ;asian. Now the question arises, would Judge Shepherd, McKae or Judge Burwel: do what the ma chine wants Judge Connor to do? We challenge any Democratic paper in the State to ad m i t they would. Such an admission would be a base slander on them if they are fit to sit on the Superior court bench. Ma rion Butlers ?s edi torial on Judge Connor, in the Caucasian. 1 am not willing to place this action udon opposition to the principle of a non - partisan-judi ciary, but upon THE TRUE REASON THAT I JREGARD THE NOMINEES OF MY OWN PARTY AS IN EVERY W A 1 FIT AND PROPER PERSONS FOR THE positions, and that I shall give them my loyal and cordial support. and that I regard the success of the party and the en forcement of its principles as es sential to the wel fare of the State andnation. Judge Connor's letter de clining the Popu list nomination. I wish to say for reasons apparent to all, that 1 re gard Judge Bur well in every re spect entitled to the support of all good citizens.
