A VOID ro HASIOHT,
The News and Observer regrets that
any Eabtarn piper baa found it desiriole
t ) make sueh flings at the people of the
West as tbe Wi'son Advanoe has lately
indulged in. We re woll aware that
others Jalk sometimes s the Advance
has expressed itself, but we are eanfi
dent that such is by no means the general
sentiment of the East. 1 lbe people , of
the East are behind those of no o'h
er section of the Sta'e in comprehensive
ideas and devotion to patriotio duty.
They do not confine their view to their
immediate surroundings, but look put
all over the broad expanse of our com
monwealth and hold it to be their dut?,
as it is their pleasure; to aid in the de
velopment of the; entire State.
To do otherwise would be no less harm
ful to themselves than unpatriotic. For
as the west flourishes, the cast is bene
fited. The ocmpletion of tho Western
N. 0. railroad has already added ten
millions to the value of property across
the mountains, though the settlement of
the mountain region is still in its in
fancy. The development of the west
ern oountry has aided largely in pro
ducing that oondition whioh now justi
fies a reduotion of taxation, and that is
a substantial benefit whioh the pooplo
of the east will certainly appreciate. '
But apart from that, ; the onslaught
of Bro. Daniels is by no means justified.
The west has never made any demands
upon the eiet that we recall. The
patriotio representatives of the we6thave
ever exhibited a purpose to stand cheer
folly by all measures which the eastern
white men reoemmended as necessary to
6cozre them in the control of their local
affairs. It is but proper for eastern
men to award the western people fall
credit for their action in this matter.
While it was wise, while it was neigh
borly, while it was only what the east
would have done by the west under sim
ilar oiroumstanoes, yet it is a course of
oonduot whioh the east should ever ap
preciate and value at its true worth.
Under these circumstances, we fail to
see what pleasure brother Daniels oJl
take in seeking to array seotion against
section, nor can wjs neroeive what good
he can hope to accomplish by it for this
people of the east or for the people of
tbe state, neither do we see the jus
tioe of his statement that "there will be
men in the legislature who we verily
'believe are the paid agents of railroad
'companies." If Bro. Daniels thinks
so, we suggest that he ought to name
the particular man and not involve the
entire representation from the west
in suoh a general assertion. For our
part we do not think so. We think the
representation from the west, in both
houses, is above sucKsn aspersion. And
if we may be permitted to say so with
out being sneered at as the organ, we
would observe tbat if Bro. Daniels can
see how it will advance the interests of
the demcoratio party to undermine pub
lie ooifiienee in our democratic brethren
from the west, we cannot. If Bro.
Daniels can see how it advantages
the democratic puty to get our
friends by the ears, we cannot.
Bnt then the Nxws in Obsihyix is
old-fashioned and does not believe in
getting up sensations at the expense of
iL 1 " 1 0 .
we party, ana inaeea, we tear, is very
much what the independent free-lances
in the democratic party call "an organ."
At any rate we do not think it answers
any good purpose unnecessarily to ar
ray section against seotion or to put the
west in an improper position before the
eastern people.
MB, KOKBILL'S EFFORT.
The resolution of Senator Morrison
declaring that "the promise of making
any revision of the tariff is hopeless and
impracticable," etc., is of course in
tended to stave off action in the matter
of tariff reduction on the put of the
present democratic msjority in Congress:
It shows, however, at the same time,
that even .the republicans real 'a 9 that
something must be done in response to
the unmistakable demand made by the
pec pie. Mr. Morrison doubtless de
sires to pave the way for the in
troduction of a republican bill for re
vision and ti ui secure to his , party the
prestige of a measure for relief from
the oppression of the present unneces
sary taxation. Bui he cannot so hoed
Wink the American public It is toe
well known that .the present burden
some system has been maintained by the
r publiean party. Ik is too well known
that it has been maintained by that
party for the purpose of benefiting a
few monopolists at the North, regard
less of the interests of the people as a
whole and of the great firming o1as
especially It is too well known that
the r.).uolioan party has ever been the
representatife of the protected manu
facturer ss against the whole people
and that its legislation has been exclu
sively in favor of the former. It is too
well known th.t the democratic party
as the party of the whole people has
constantly striven to remove the galling I
yoke fixed upon the American neek by
the republicans, and, judging the future
by the past, it is known full well that it
is to the democratic party alone the peo-
Ele can look for relief from the painful
urden they are made to bear. Mr
M)rriH's effort will therefore avail
naught in the direction he wishes it to
take. It may have the rffoot of delay
ing action on the matter which is of
first importance to the Amerioan people
at this time and so will increase the
heavy load of sins the republican party
already has. to answer for, but, from the
manner in whioh the democratic part of
Congress has gone to work to carry out
the popular will touohing tariff reduc
tion, it is clear that that Dart at least
proposes still to do its utmost as it has
always dene to secure the desired end.
Mr. Morrill is naturally anxious to
boost his party again into popular favor
but the utter lack of patriotism in his
resolution is (ten by all. His party has
been tried in the balanoo and found
wanting, whe h r we regard the matter
of the tariff or aoy other matter involv
ing the interests of the whole people, j

The West has shown no disposition to
abuse the generosity of the East; no in
timation to suggest the sense of obliga
tion, not the most distant idea of regard
ing the county government question as
one of bargain and sale. The West, with
many inducements to a contrary course,
took its position on the county govern
ment question on the) broad principles
of State comity, on the g&terous prin
ciple of what was duo to the oppressed
people of the East, on the high ground
of the paramount rights of the white
raoe. No taunts, no suspicion of mo
tives, no imputations of selfishness will
move the West from the stand it has
taker,: Asheyille Cit:in.
There is bnt one way possible prac
tical y to reduoe the rate of interest
that is by increasing the sum of money,
seeking investment in the looality. As
this 0 in only be done by saving, it is a
slow process. We have heretofore sug
gested the enoouragement of savings
banks as a means of in ir easing the
amount of money for loan, and think it
will prove useful to the end.
While we do not see any advantage
to be gained by altering our usury law,
so far as it applies to what may be called
commercial paper, that is, promissory
notes or bonds unsecured by a mortgage
or lien on property, we do think that
a less rate of interest ought to be al
lowed and might be practically obtain
ed, where the payment does not depend
entirely or mostly on the integrity ard
continued solvency of the debtor, but is
put beyond doubtrbyta mortgage or other
ben on preperty should be valid, if bv
the terms of the contract, or by the
transaction between the parties, the true
debt was to bear more than six per eent
interest. This would invalidate the
lien on the property, but would leave
the claim to be collected as any other
debt might; the debt would stand as if
there bad been no mortgage. We sug
gest this to the next Legislature, con
fident that whatever the opinions of our
local members may be (as to whioh we
are ignorant) that the: good sense of the
members and their desire to aid the
people, will lead them aright, Wash

North Carolina has up to this time
been a blessed land in the peculiarly
friendly relations that have existed be
tween; all elasses aud i conditions of her
people. We have read of the strikes in
the great cities, and the trouble, suffer
ing and often bloodshed following them.
but we have never been able to realise
it all, because so far removed from the
soenes of strife. God grant that with
the growing manufacturing interests of
our Southern eountry, capital and labor
may so work in harmony and a mutual
interest that sueh troublous timrs will
b unknown. If with the building of
lactones and the organisation of Knights
or Moor lodges are to epme strife and
turmoil, entailing hunger and suffering
upon helpless women and children, we
ay let us stay far behind the age and
purine our peaceful walk in the paths

tho future will never be looked upon by
her in any other light than what should
be held in equity, and what she might

we are not in favor of state interference
in matters of this sort. We approve of
the democratic polioy of refusing to al
low tke state funds to be appropriated
for internal improvements. If the East
wishes to develop its swamps let them
be ditched and made arable by private
entsrpriee. and if the West desires to
develop its mountains and to wind
railroads around them, let it do it
without reaching down into the
etstar treasury. Lat every tub
stand on it own bottom As long as
oonvio's in the penitentiary are to be let

ai?Tw be allotted to work on her
railroads and public works, but the East
