The only hope of the -republicans of
accomplishing anything in the coming
elections lies in the apathy of democrat.
Let us thcreforo be up and doing. It
is not tod early to be planning the bat
tle, to be calling the roll, to be trying
the armor which has served us so well
heretofore. Let us sco that every man
who, desires a ' continuance of honesty
and economy in the administration of
public affairs is enlisted in the ranks of
democracy, which alonis to ,be relied
upon for such continuance. Let every
true.; democrat realize the importance of
activity On his part, even though the
enemy has almost entirely disappeared
from view, and let the arms of the
democratic party in every section
of the State bo brightened and sharp
ened. Having the party, which while
in power threatened the destruction of
the State, in utter discomfiture, we can
not afford to permit .ths slightest attempt
on its part to rally. The democracy of
the State must keep it in its present
condition of rout,-horse, foot and dra
goons, and to this end unrelaxrd vigi
lance is necessary. Alertness must be
the word all along the line. The hydra
headed monster of radicalism now be
neath our feet must be dealt a blow
.whenever it raises a crest. A recollec
tion of the appalling dangers from which
the democratic triumph freed tho State
is all that is necessary to enforce this
injunction. Let no man sleep upon his
posts The true interests of the State
demand from the democratic party con
tinued vigilance and, an earnest and
thorough preparation for another con
test, oven though no enemy appear in
ioree in our immcduto trOnt.
Tbi French royalists, they say,, pro

archy, and that at the decisive moment
ho will be ready. A copy of this man
ifesto has been mailed to every elector
in France. It may turn out to be true,
and we are inclined to think it will, that
the princes are much more dangerous to
the republic outside of France than
within the borders of that politically
Fbo m and after today the dryness of

is reasonable to suppose that there will

of those whose thirst is most unquench

suoh as those referred to will be! found
in unexpected places. Seriously though
wo mean to Hay that the local option law
goes into effect and every citizen bhould

accepted in good faith and is observed.
It is the law by popular vote and the
majority in this case as in all oaseb in
this democratic country should prevail.
- Let the value of the new regulation be
tested fairly and freely.
Tax committee appointed to look into
tho Pan-electrio charges reports that "a
full, fair 'and exhaustive investigation
has failed to adduce any evidence which
tends, to show that attorney general
Goode, secretary Lamar, Indian com
missioner Atkins, railroad commissioner
Johnston or Senator Harris, they being
the officers named in the Pan-electric
publications of the newspaper press
which gave rise to this investigation,
did any act, official or otherwise, con
nected with tho matter .investigated

Pau-eleciric how-d'ye-do trumpeted to
the skies by the republicans. Certainly

against democratic officials when they
turned to this, mare's nest. The drown

Tfex old hall of the House of Repre
sentatives in the capitol at Washington
has jbeen set apart, it will be remem
bered, as a valhalla for the worthies of
the country. Each State in the Union
is entitled to places there for represen
tations in bronze or marble of two of its
most! distinguished men. The hall is
rapidly being filled with the statues of
the great and good who have passed
away.. Many of the states have hastened
to place in the sight of the nation and
of the world figures of their greatest
men in order that their fame might be
most lasting. New York has there her
Fulton and her Livingston, Rhode
Island her Roger Williams and: her
Sherman, Connecticut her Trumbull,
Pennsylvania her Franklin, and so on
through the list of States and of the
greatest men those States have : pro
duced. But-the places for North Caro
lina s ' heroes are vacant. Had . the
Old.' Worth state then no great
men, the world asks, . no two
mem whose memorv she reveres
enough to enshrine it in the federal
capitol, along with that of the other
worthies of the union ? : We all know
what the answer ought W be, but we
take '' no steps to make it where
at will, do the most good. As great
men have arisen within the borders of
this old State as in any other of the
galaxy of sovereign commonwealths.
Let us therefore undertake to make their
jjrtu.es and .their fame known to all the
world as they are to us. We have too
long delayed this duty we owe the dead
and which it should be our pride to per
form, j We are abundantly able to fill
the places in Statuary Hall, Washing
ton, to which we are entitled and for
which we have material as fine as that
which; any sister State has produced.
Let us agree upon the two of our great
est men whom we would desire to rep
resent in tho country's temple of fame
and let us begin at Washington the work
of perpetuating the memories of our
great dead which we have already much
too long delayed.
- Tot Senate committee on appropria
tions has struck out the provision for
the publication of the records of the
rebellion socalled, and this action it may
well be taken for granted will cause a
lively diecussion when the bill contain
ing it shall be reported to the Senate,
it is more than probable that the repub
lican majority of the committee were in
fluenced by the fact that one or two ex
Confederate officers are in charge of the
compilation of the Confederate records.
It is alleged indeed that an undue col
oring in favor of the Confederacy has
been given to some of the records, but
ot course this allegation is founded only
in the. faet that the records have ' not
been 'perverted or distorted to suit the
Northern view. It would seem to be
but reasonable that if the history of
.Confederate operations is to be recorded
at all it should be recorded as told b
those who conducted the operations, If
the record is to be made by partisans bit
terly opposed to everything Confod
eratej what historical value will their
work have, we should like to know?

interesting to note that a correspondent
of the Newi York Times says that on
January 12th, 1773, an open meeting L,
Sheffield, Mass., adopted a declaration
of more or less independence, assorting
the right of self government, announc
ing numerous grievances, and abusing
Great Britain without stint. Two ol
the committee that drafted the resolu

afterward became generals in the Revo

antedates by more than two years the
Mecklenburg declaration, and we want

The trustee of the University of
North Carolina have been exceedingly
fortunate' in their selection of Prof.
Eben Alexander, from among eighteen
candidates, some of them of great ex
cellence, as professor of Greek. He is of
an old North Carolina family. His father
emigrated to Tennessee and became an
eminent judge. Prof. Alexander wan
born in Knoxvillo in 1851, was grad
uated at Yale with high distinction in
1873; in September 1873 Was chosen
tutor in Latin and GreekJin the univer
sity of Tennessee; in 1877 was made
full professor in the same department,
and has lately been chairman of the
taculty. He is president bf tho State
teachers' association of Tennessee.
He comes to the University of
North Carolina in order to devote
himself exclusively to ,the Btudy
and teaching of Greek, . of which he is
very fond.
Prof. Alexander sent no recommen
dation, but referred the board to promi
nent men in Tennessee, South Carolina,
North Carolina and elsewhere. Letters
were written to these and the answers
are enthusiastic in his favor for learning,
teaching power, social gifts and exalted
character. We give a few extracts by
the courtesy of President Battle.
Prof. E. Pr Moses, superintendent of
the Raleigh city schools, say?: "I
hazard nothing when I say that he has
always been the most popular profosfor
in the college (university of Tenncfsee).
He is by nature and eduoation a man
of letters. Ho is at the same
time a fine scholar and- Lard
student. ' Socially hej. is very pop
ular . As la teacher and
disciplinarian, I do gnot know his su
perior. In fact Eben Alexander is in
my mind the highest type ol tho teacher,
the gentleman and the scholar."
Mr.' John L. Moses, president ol the
board of trustees of the' university of
Tennessee, says: "Ue is a modest and
courteous gentleman, scholarly, upright
and popular. His discharge of duty as
professor of ancient languages for many
years and as chairman of i he faculty for
the last year has been BO admirable as
to win for him universal approval. 1
do not see how we can spare him and
have earnestly entreated him to abandon
the idea of going away."
Major McBryde, president of the
University of South Carolina, writes:
"A diligent student, a thorough and ac
curate scholar, an active, energetic man,
a refined and courteous gentleman,
he is in my opinion a man of exception
al prominenoe and ability. He has the
power of exeiting the enthusiasm and
commanding the respect and confidence
of his students to a' remarkable degree,
and yet he is a rigid disciplinarian and
exacts hard work of his classes.
So highly do I esteem , him that I had
fully determined to use every effort to
secure his services for this college in the
event of a vacancy in the chair of An
cient Languages." :
Dr. H. T. Eddy, dean of the faculty
of theUniversity of Cincinnati writes :
"He has a powerful, well-trained intel
lect as well as the poise and compass of
a man of affairs.'
.Prof. Hunter Nicholson, a graduate
of the University of North Carolina, now
a professor in the University of Tennes
see, says: ,"I har-e been associated with
Prof Alexander for thirteen years on
the most intimate personal and profes
sional terms, as member of the same
faculty and next door neighbor. I
therefore claim to know the man and his
work, pd so knowing him. I do most
heartily, earnestly and unreservedly
commend him to you as one of the best
men for the position to bo found in the
United States. In wide reaching, pro
found and accurate scholarship, in care
ful, painstaking investigation, in criti
cal skill and judgmett, ;he is all that
could be asked for in a professor. Moro
than this he is a teacher in the highest
sense of . the term, with the electrical
power of infusing bis own enthusiasm
into his clasfces and of getting tho very
best possible work out of every boy.
In the faculty room his judg
ment is sound and wise and
his vicfrs of college work broad
and liberal In short: ho is every
thing that you could ask for the univer
sity as a professor.7'
Mr. Morton W East on, professor of
Comparative Philology- in the uni
versity of Pennsylvania, says: "The
best tendencies of the new scholarship
are fully represented in him- He is not
a pedagogue merely, although pains
taking and accurate in methods of de
tail. He haa kept up with the advances
of philologioal science and knows how
to present them effectively in the class
room. And I may say the same of
archaeological details,! . attention to
which, as is now understood by all the
most prominent teachers of the country, is
necessary to give life and vividness to the
Study of the classics. I have never known
a more "popular" teacher. ; No one in
the university was well loved by his
pupils. In all regards, in maintaining
order, in commanding f respectful at
tention and in securing the affection of
the students, his bucccbb in the class
room is perfect. His relations with other
members of the faculty were all that
could be desired." Prof, C F. Smith,
Vanderbilt university i ; says : "His
notices of books have always seemed to
me to indicate a conscientious and ac
curate reviewer. In knowledge of the
Greek. I have for some time regarded
him as one of the best equipped men of
the South. He basin writing a very

The true condition of the crops just
at this season is a question of great lm
portancte to the whole country and es
pecially to the farmers. We call the
attention of farmers to the present pros
pect of the cotton crop, and ask each one
to examine for himself; when they have
done this, I have no doubt many wil
find their cotton in the possession of an
enemy far more destructive than , tho

TUm Coifcrlnl Convention.-
Cor. of Ths Nbws and Oisbbvir.
It seems a little strange that neither
the time nor place for holding the Con
gressional convention has been an
nounced. The judicial and State Con
ventions have been called, and why not
the Congressional I borne of the coun
ties in the district (if not all) have
called conventions to send delegates to
a convention that has not been dulled
and aa tb-ere seems to be some misuuV
derstanding about how this convention
is called and by whom, I call attention
to section thre- of the Democratic plan
.f or jr.riiation, which is plain, as fol
low-: 1'he executive committees of lh
sec-itorial, congressional and judicial
districts, respectively, shall at the cal!
of their respective chairmen, meet at
the same time and place in their'respec-
tive districts, designated in said call.
And it shall be their duty to appoint
the tin ' and place for holding conven
tions U their respective districts. And
the chairmen of said respective commit
tees shall immediately notify the chair
men of the different county executive
committees of said appointment. And
the said county executive 'committees
shall forthwith call conventions of their
respective'eounties in coniormity to said
notice! to send delegates to said respec
tive district conventions So the con
gressional convention is not called by
the chairman (as is supposed by some)
but by the committee. Will the gen
tlemen of the committee let us know
when and where the convention will be
held? . Dkmockat.
