Graham, the demo cratic candidate for Congress in this dis trict, opened the campaign here last night in a speech at the court Louse. 11 is address was a clear, dispassionate, straightforward statement of the issues of4 the day and of J the position of the democratic party in regard thereto. He spoke, like 'the sterling, patriotic oitiien that he is and showed as usual that he is a man on whom it will do to count, lie disdain the. aid. of rhetori cal flourish and thejarts of the orator in his public efforts btt makes his points in such a way that' they carry convic tion notwithstanding, lie holds to the right in short, ho is on the right side, he oould not be on any other, and his arguments therefore have the foroe which" only absolute sincerity and a true devotion to the interests of all the people can give, lie will box the standard of his party. to victory if there remain anything in patnotio de votion to the pubho welfare and in plain logio and wo surmise that the virtue and the power mentioned have not yet lost their hold upon men. Mr. Niohols attempted a reply to Maj. Graham but really failed to touch his arguments at any point and so scarcely deserves a reference. We Bay again that the democrats of the distrust have m ado- no mistake in nominating Maj. Graham. t m RKI.IKF TO f HK PiOPtE. The News and Obskbvir is nothing ii nit practical in its devotion to the in' teres ts of the people of North Carolina. It is a North Carolina paper and rejoices in whatever benefits the people. It therefore hails with great satisfaction the prospeot it holds out to the people of tax reduction by the next assembly The result of a thorough investiga tion leads the News and Obskkvsk to believo.that tux reduction is now possi ble and' if wise and conservative demo crats are elcoted to the assembly, the rate of taxation will be reduoed from twenty-five cents to twenty fonts. This is also a reduction of fifteen cents on the poll. Let every tax payer, let every poor man who has to pay a boll tax re member this and praise the. democratic party for such a prudent management oi pubho affairs as has made this relief fea sible. It is substantial relief; and the best thing about it is that onoe acoom plished, it will not be lightly undone A' tax reduction now means a twenty cent tax until 6uoh time as the tax can be again lowered. Thi American Agricultural and Dairy association is holding its seventh annual session in Philadelphia and the Presi dent, who has been invited to attend the convention shows in his response his appreciation of the interest Ihe farmers have in charge as follows: ."The rela 'tion of this inteiest to the Welfare and prosperity of our land is so intimate that its proper and' legitimate care and nrfltftntinn m in r ioa ntriakio uuiy. a nis oonsiaerauon en vates tne responsibility of- those in any wise in trusted with our farming industry be yond the plane of mere selfishness, and should induce conservatism and modera-i tion. Demands made in such a spirit cannot fail to exaot a just and apprecia tive response from those who make and execute our laws.", Certainly the in terests of the agriculturist are of equal importance with those of any other class of our people and in view, of the all surpassing size of the agricultural class those interests should never be lost sight of Dy our pubao men. Today the biggest: excursion train ever run will leave Chicago for Boston, over the Chicago and Grand Trunk rail way. The contract calls for Bixty Pull man and forty Wagner sleeping.coachea, fifty regular passenger coaches and twenty baggage cars; The first section Of this remarkable trsin will leave Chi cago at 9 a. m., and every twenty min utes thereafter until the entire party is on the move. This great excursion is going to the Odd Fellows' celebration at Boston next week; when: the Sover eign Grand lodge of the world will hold its meeting. It will certainly be a mon ster, and that the colored brother will not have a chance at it is sad to realize There is nothing in this world that the darkey enjoys so much as an exoursion. and the bigger the excursion the greater tne enjoyment always. Gxsojtimo has a record, it sppears,sa smuggler. ' A correspondence at the federal treasury shows that when Mr. Fo'.ger was secretary, Geronimo brought from Mexico a large number of horses, on which he refused to pay duty. On their beipg seized he gave the government officials notice that he would fight for them, and i secretary xoiger ustruatea tne customs omoers to let him off dutyfree. ' 1 , Tm brothers Taylor, democratic and republican candidates or Governor of Tennessee, are making a jofet canvass in the most amicable ;manner; possible.! They sleep together, drive ' together to the places of meeting and play on the Same violin to the delight of all who hear them. Such a picture of fraternity is beautiful, but wdi fear it cannot last, not ithb tending the agreement which has been made that personalities shall be eschewed to the end. There are al ready whispers that Alf onoa. knotted Bob's olotbes while the latte was in swimming. ! ; ; Thsba is in session at Chicago a con vention of anti-saloon republicans, as they o-ll themselves, from full the States. Ex-senator Wjndom was made president of the convention and outlined the movement as one which seeks to make the republican party declare for local option and "recognize the right of the people to vote on the question directly when thev wish to do so." What Blaine; of Maine, is vomit to do about it n.s not jet ben reported. 1ICBOLS' VASIOIDACT. Mr. John Nichols' masquerade in in dependent guise eemes too soon after his republicanism of the straitcst sect to fool tho people of this district. He is too well remembered to have been ith" tbe most unscrupulous of the G. O. P. " in the day of the most out rageous radical excesses -. to be thought of now for a moment as a representative in Congress. His candidacy represents nothing under the sun but selfishness pure and simple. Ho can do nothing for the workingman that cannot be done by a democratic "representative and being outside the lines of both the only two parties it will puzzle anybody to see how he will be able to do, any thing at all in a body where the lines are so closely drawn as they are in Congress. There is nothing more lone some or powerless in this world tnan an independent in an American legislative assembly. He is despised by all poli ticians of decided views and is used only as drift-wood is used to stop leaks What good Mr. Nichols can do in that role for workmgmen or any other class, with ability that is certainly not of shining excellence, is past find ing out. He will find it diffi cult, however. to convince the ncople of his independence of radicalism He will be generally and justly recog nized as another wolf in sheep s cloth ine, and the masses will turn to a man who is known to : be absolutely Binccre snd devoted to the interests of the peo ple of the distriot, who is not self-noun nated, but who, as the choice of the democracy, the great party which has been entrusted with the administration of the government, will be in a position in Congress to be of service to t'.e met ropolitan district and will bv his honest industry and ability make that service great and distinguished. As between Niohols, the self-nominated, and Graham the choice of a majority of the people, there will be no long hesitation, I he Knights of Labor cannot be expected to support a man in violation of all their instincts of politioal right and wrong simply be cause he. h&ppenB to be a knight himself and particularly when the supposition is by no means vi olent that the knighthood was sought onlv to be-used for tbe purpose of po litical advancement. We have too high an opinion of the order of Knights of Labor to Deneve mat u can mas made a mere tool of selfish men. be Mr. Nichols last evening mentioned what we had discovered before, that he was appointed postmaster by president Garfield in 1881. We had supposed he was appointed alter president uarneia s death. He also stated that the Nswb . . 1 a ri jsiia and UB8ZRYSK naa iaiien into error about his being president of the Knights of Labor : that there is no such omoe. and that the only place he holds in that organisation is an unimportant one. He corrected a statement made by the Dur " - - . ham Tobacco riant that Hoe had, as postmaster, turned out a white man and put in a negro W note with pleasure the nomination eJ ySwhmll Pmrhm, Emq ., ia the Norfolk district for Congress.

POLITICS AND BUSINESS. Correspondence of the Kiws axo Obsekvkb. Waynisvillb, Sept. 16 - The superior court is in session here this week, judge Avery presiding. The criminal docket, which is quite light, was finished today. No oases of much importance wore tried, except perhaps cases against several druggists for vio lation of the local prohibition law, and a ease of riot against eight or ten negroes who attempted to rescue a prisoner from a constable. The politioal campaign opened . here msr i ttt m n t monaay. w . . wrawiora, xaq., was renominated by the democratic oonven tion for the house by a flattering vote. This is a jast recognition of his superior merits as a legislator and citizen. He will be opposed by some independent democrat, in all probability. Capt. Frank Davis is understood to be in the field in opposition to Crawford, but no formal announcement of his candinacy has yet been made. It is hoped that he is too good a democrat to attempt to de feat this talented and popular nominee, an attempt which must end in failure, as Crawford s election is quite certain from the present outlook. Ferguson and Moody, the opposing candidates for solicitor, held a joint dis cussion on Tuesday. Ferguson is the democratic nominee and Moody is run ning as a republican; so this is a square political fight the only square one per haps in this section. Democracy is so solid in these parts that republicanism has fallen into a oondition of insanity or mnocuousnesf; and hopdoodleism rears its double-headed crest in place of the grand old party Johnston and Malone speak here this week. This is Johnston's "native health' It is not yet known who will oppose G. W. Wilson for the senate in this dis trict, exoept W. W. Davie, who is al ready in the field.

Mr. Earle Sloan, the special agent of the United States geological survey, re turned to Charleston Wednesday, after an investigation of various denressions and other earthquake evidences along the line of the Charleston and Savannah railway. At the 22-mile post he found a fissure, the largest which has yet been. noted, being 2,000 feet in length, and averaging tbree and a half inches in width.

Between 1860 and 1870 Maine was the one 8tate of the Union that decreased in population.

The slowest moving State of the South increased in population in a ratio four or five times greater than Maine. In agriculture it has also fallen be hind. In 1870 the value of the farms of Maine was $102,921,000, and in 1880 8102,357.000. There was an inorease y ' . . . r n CP in some products, but a iauing on in others; no general increase The State stood still agriculturally, while others were forging aheadi in. manufactures Maine is also lauiLg behind. In 1880 it had 4,481 factories in the State, and in 1870 it had 5,550. It paid out in wages $13,600,000 in 1880. against 814,280,000 in 1870, and the value of products was $79,500,000 in 1870 to $79,829,000 in 1880.

While Maine is stationary or falling behind in population, agriottlture and .manufactures, illiteracy is on the in oreaae. It had 13,000 inhabitants in 1870 over ten years of age unable to read and 18,000 in 1880. It had 19,- 000 in 1876 unable to write and 22,000 in 1830 In the statistics of crime,' insanity, and pauperism there is also an inorease in the number of criminals ana untortu nates, even with a stationary or de creased nonulation. and. think of it, a :r r - - prohibitory liquor law !

Wilmington Star. But to our topic People - should be just and fair, as well as newspapers. Are thev always just and 'fair when dealing with either newspapers or men with' principles or party? We refer now but to one point. How do the people act in regard to the no- fence law Are thev always fair and just? Whom do they blame for such law in certain counties? We learn from the publio press that in some counties democrats who oppose the law are threatening to bolt the part; and be cause of that law. Is this wise and just? Who passed the law? - It is very certain that it has never been made a party issue. It is equally certain that in the legislature it was not l made a party issue. Way then be un I . . . r fair and unjust m making it now nartv issue after the fact? We do not stop now to consider the merits of such a law, whether it is good or bad. But the point is it has never been a party issue. All. over North Carolina thers are intelligant and practical men of bus- ness who are republicans who favor the law just as much as some democrats fa y-o-r it. Why then threaten to break off from party and go over to the opposition that is in the same predicament? Stand by your party organisation. Restore the republican party to power and you will have cause for .far greater complaints than you cow have. Stand by your old Ujarty. W There are demagogues in all the counties. There are men who make living by deception, lhere are mea who hope to prosper by practicing upon the credulity and gullibility of their lei low men. There are men who lie in wait to deceive and bamboo ale, and who wink at each other while laughing in their sleeves at the ease with which some men are led astray, lhey Are ready to seise upon prohibition, or a no fence law. or anv other hobbv with which to ride into office, or with which to divide the opposing party.
