Judge Fowls sod other candidate on the Democratic Bute ticket have been canvassing In the extreme west ern part of the State for some days. Everywhere they have, had very large audiences, end Judge Fowlo bos mad very fine lmpresaion end is winning votes for tbe Democratic ticket. The republican party has declared In favor of ft With tArlff and for the profcfdlee of American labor from competition with foreign pauper labor, Ull - Mr. Harrison, tbe candidate of (bat pert for the presidency, while lo h Senate, voted la favor it lbs whaJe- sale importation of tbe Chinese to ths Pacific slope.

But tbe democratic party b for freer trade, for ft reduction of the present high tariff, and the peo ple are with the party. The tariff av crogvs now about 47 per cent, and It Is n!r rro?ccd to reduce It to an aver- -a of about 40 per cent., which leaves V'e tbe high protection tariff con- 1 far l y Mr. Clay. Thie are t t' e demagogues are doing 1 1 n t'-e peoj 'e Iguo- Olivor H. Dockery,' the republican candidate for Governor, from accounts of.specci.es he 1 making, appears to be unscrupulous demagogue. Ho tries to mt.ke the impression that Judge Fowlo did something dirty la connection whh the special tax bonds Issued by the re publican Legislature of 1888. Nobody should believe lilm, aurt it is hoped no body does. Even Dckery's party or gan, the Raleigh Signal, does not be lieve there is any truth iu tho chargo that Judgo Fowlo is guilty of Improp er conduct In connection with the theso bonds and their fraduluont disposition. It should not bo forgotten that these bonds are tbe creation of the republi can party, and that that parly is now siipoorting a man .for vice president who is trylHg to enforce their payment, and should he succeed, tho State would bo hopelessly bankrupted. That old lie about President Cleve land inviting Fred Douglas to n dinner at the old white houso is also being harped around by Dackcry, and he went so fur as to say that Mrs. m-..

So it seems that bait didn't daw well ; bul( perhaps the wrong man was managing tho, hook aud l.ne. In poiut of numbers the convention did right well. The "broth er iu black" was numerous aud took lib full part, and when it come to voting he held tho balanco of power. The democrats had their eyes open, so there were about as many of them ou hand oh there were white republi cans. For the offices tho following were nominated, to-wit: For the Houso of Representatives, Johu G. Fowler; for Sheriff, Ed. R. Harden ; for Register of Deeds, John W. Crawford ; for Treasurer, Geo. W.

Secretary Whitney has ordered all the available vessels of the North At lantic rquadron to the Canadian (bill ing ground, to look after the interests of American Fishermcu. A howl has been raised among those, naval officers who have had "soft snaps" in tills city and elsewhere, for many years, on account of a new order Issu ed by Secretary Whitney, directing t2e Board of Chletrt of Bureaux to feviow tho list of present details, and report where officers can be released from short duty or sUtions, without detri ment to the service. This menus a gcoerul sIinkiiKC up. John Sherman, in his speech sgniust the fisheries treaty,' said that Canada in less than leu years, would bua'part of the United Stales. If ho really th'nks so, why does he waste timo in opposing this treaty. If Canada is to come into the TJr.ion, that will put au end to all disputes. Representative Townshend, of Illi nois, is very enthusiastic, nnd fully ex pects to carry that Rtnte for Cleveland, Tliurmun, and tariff reform.

This Is the way he puts the republican opposition to the treaty : "All at once It seemed as if while the republicans were journeying to Damascus, a great ligl t shone around alajatthamagtl anjjcg jyas hegrd ssy- ing, 'Why will you not raUe a row against Great Britain and get the Irish votd ?'

It was geu rrallv conceded .that his persounl popularity would fcivo a great boost to Harrison. Tbe inside history or It all is a plain na a piko-stafV.

There has been a great deal of flying gossiy lately i. bout a deal on the part of the Republicans under the guise or a citizens ticket to put Mr. Hewitt in renominatiou. Nothing could ho more foolish as tho Mayor is one of tho st raightest party men. An other report suys he will be a candi date for tho County Democracy. That inny or may not be; Tammany's bi chief, Commissioner Crokor, comes out this morning aud say? he does not think the Mayor will "get there" again. This, of course, means that he will not do so with Tammauy Hall's hope. Local politics here are so intimately connect ed with national politics that ev?ry move is of the utmost interest.

To Ihe Prohibition!!, ef Nerth Caroli na. The organization nnd attitude of the Third or Prohibition parly in this State calls for serious consideration from those of U3 who have beeu identi fied with all tha movements looking to the abolition of the liquor traffic fiat have taken place during the past sev eral years. I have given no subject more thought than that of temperance and prohibition, aud for the past sev eral months I have been intensely con cerned about tho position which those desiring prohibition should take with regard te the Third party that 1 saw was coming South in its organization and work. Frequently have I talked u ith the late lamented John B. Finch, Chairman of the National Prohibition Executive Committee, aud with Johu N.' Stearns, Esq., secretary of tbe Na. tional Temperance Society, and many other leading men abut what to me was the peculiar situation of the lJio hibilionists of the South. With few excep'Jons the temperance men of the South lb it have fought its battles aud built up the sentiment for Prohibition which we find to-day entertain the same views that I do, and that is, the orgauTzation of the Third party in the South is unwise and dangerous not only to the cause of rrohimtion, but to our civil nnd political institutions. . Local option is uot all that we want. The law us it now stands is crude and imper.ect and therefore its operation dilUcuit. But local option, with - all its faults, has proveu a blessing to those communities where it has been faithfully tested, and with our popula tion it is our only nop3. And tne large sections of North Carolina under prohibition to-day are bo because of loiMtl ontioR nnd SDecial lezhdative en actment for schools, churches, &c. If tho question was prohibition or license the position of the temperance people would be clear, but there can ha no dnuht in the mil) J ef &iiy oo as to the result of the pVeaent organiza tion of Uie Third party in North Caro lina. A largo majority of the voters will come from the Democratic party; aud just so far as the vote of the Third party increases, tne strengtn oi tne Deuiocratio party decreases. So that tbe questiou for each prohibitionist 'to decide now is Ibis : ' - Which political party do I prefer to have in pow,er in North Carolina tbe Democratic or Republican ? With either as a practical party we will have the saloons. We know that, aud therefore it is a choioe of which party, wilh . the s ilooiu, the prohibi tionists prefer. There cau be no hope of electing Mr. Walker or any of the Third party candidates. So that we are lo have the saloous after the elec tion as we have them now. "But fbur years from uow we will come luto power," some of tbe Third party men toll us. ' Upou what ground this is believed I cannot possibly see. Whenever those opposed to proMbition Cad aa organi zation of any magnitude against thsm they will come together in oae effort as ihey did In 1881, and the result ia cosily staled. - I commenced voting In Stale and national politics in 1S70. My reason for voting the Democratlo -ticket at that time admitted of no quoation or doubt. The same conditions exist to day ; .ind aside from tho national is uei that divide the two great parlies here in North Carolina, the question of race eupremecy must be considered. By this, I do uot meau social equality. This I do not greatly fear. But race Suprtrinecy is a fact or past history un der Republican rule in the South, and thciefore is not ouly possibly but sure, if the Republican party succeeds. 1 have no bilternes of feeling in the matter. My record for tbe past twen ty year la this city Is the beat proor 1 can otfor of my deiire to elevate aud promote the moral and material food of the colored people, bat I am not ready to commit lo their hnda tbe government of North Carolina mu nicipal, county and State. They are not equal lo it, or prepared for it. I am apposed to their oppression in any war. and favor their education aud trealineut as other cilixeus, but I do not believe tbsm capable ef controll ing aud pro.ieriy managing our govern menL It nav be sail that there ars good men in the Republican party, and I hi I praut i true, lolh with regard to while awl colored.

As It was then so It is now, the majority of tho voters of any pary give character to tho loaders nnd control their acts. Ii is true in this city and elsewhere, so far as I can see, l.At tUa.
