(Henderson, (N. "Whereas, lhere does now ex ist much hidden dissatisfaction among the non-official class of the laboring white meo, of the white Republicans, of our coun try by reason of snrewd manage ment of political machinery, by which our government, State and county officials, are selected and continued in dominating po sitions from youth to old age; and whereas, such conduct has a tendency to dishearten, hinder and prevent young men, poor men and white men from making the necessary preparations for an educated manhood, aud indirectly ignores our God-given rights as freemen of America: Therefore, belt resolved, at Upward, Henderson county, North Carolina, by the white Re publicans of our club, that to ctimnlato an r onnmirftCAii Viiclifir grade of citizenship among the own practical, experimental,com- present us in our absence at Ra , , . -ti Imon and every-day sense, and I leigh. wnue race auu iu mriusr secure a ,10,t0 eM a refined and educated suffrage, we, the white republicans of Up-1 ward do asree to lav aside all prejudice and partisan collars sectloa Wlth tne exemPtlon ocratio opponents, they are here ti, nnnc,aA of? clause.

For the time has come for all the white Repub- lioans in our State to call a halt and see where we are at.

They have proven themselves in more ways than one that the entire court-house gang Jf nominees 1 are black supremacyites, and yet go to the uneducated farmer man, I any way, by any one, as a mean - ltriek, and ask these good men to re-employ tbem to register our deeds, when we know they prom ised to run a new ticket; when the mea of both parties know that the present register of deeds did promise that be never would run, Wfeat an insult to cripplpd men.

That this same set are now asking the white Republicans of Upward to vote for them, with out any apology, to make them high sheriffs and low sheriffs, commissioners and law-making representatives, to mess about nigger clubs in our own county and in the black Republican cau cus at Raleigh, of men as black as soot.

We mast draw the line and all white men must strip themselves of all disguise and line themselyas where they belong and our watchword must be "White men will rule the white man's coun try."

A MANLI LETTER. Raleigh News and Observer. A short time after the Consti tutional Amendment had been submitted, Mr D. M.
