That he has no anxiety about the result ia only because te fully understands that he is throwing away,hit vote. The ballot, however, was notgiven him to throw away. It wss given by the people of this Stile, by hie fellow beings here, to be used in determining practical issues at the polls,; Prohibition is not in issue. We cannot put it in' issue. Hardly one pe.repn in a hundred will fceparato himself om the other people on that question. It is a question of great; importance, but ; it is net in issue here today in North Caro lina. It was in issue a few years back, wlienl Dockery led' the Libeial-Anti combination hosts ? against it and swalidwed up its advocates in a ilb jontyyof 180,000 (1). . Tte wisdom of tryingto make ii aD issue is not for us to discus heie; but it is apparent that'the adherents of' prohibition did not promote their cause whn they made it a State issue in 18ifl. ; They doubtl. ss, admit that their actiou then was unfortunate for their ? cause. The . Democrats had provided machinery ! for local option apd the . feeling of the peo ple locally was : ; being tebtta with result that must have been very eat is factory to the prohibition ists.

But we do not propose to discuss that aspect of the matter. The question, as important as it is, Cannot be made a State issue while public sentiment attaches supei ior importance to political subjects. Mr. Abernethy certainly understood this and expects only a vefy few voU e to be cast; f 6 him. Hepropbses mi rely to throw away his vote. Tu s is what Col. Dockery wants him do, and to that ixlent he is playing the tole thit Dockery desires. He may as well nut rote.

The orgauizition and attitude of e Third or Prohibition party in the this State calls for serious conoideia tion from those of an who have been identified w th all tho moveujent( lOoL.Lg to traffic that be abolition of tuo hquoc Lave lakua pla.e daring the paat Eeveinl 3 t-i s. I h ive given no subject uioro thought than that oi temperauco aud prohibition, and foi tbe past several luoDths I !:ive beet intensely concerned about tho pgs tion which thooe desiring prouibitioL should take with regard to i: e Third party that I saw was coining South m its organization and worn. rre quently have I talked with ihe late lamented John B. Finch, chairman of the National Prohibition Executive Committee, and with John N Stearns, Esq., secretary of the Jsational Temperance Society, and many other leading iu,ju about wha to me was the peculiar Mtuniion of theProhibitiOnisln of the South. With few exceptions the temperance men of the Soutti that hive fought its bit- ties and built up the aeruinie,ut for Prohibition which wo find todiy en tertain the s.-ime views that I do. and that in, the organ-: zition 0r t,he Third party in the South ;s us wis; .and din gerous not only to the cause of Prohibition, bu to oU' civil and po litical institut ouf. Local optiou ia not all that we want The law as it now stands ia crude am' imperfect and therefore its cpe.atioi, difficult. Hut local option, with ali its faults, has proven a blessing to to those communities where it has boeu faithu'.ly tested, an 1 with our population it is our only hope.. And the large sections of North Carolina under prohibition today are so because of lecal option and special legislative enactment for schools, ihurche, &c. If the question was prohibition or license 'he position of the temperance people would be clear, but there can be no doubt in the mind of any cne as to the result of the present or- anization of the Third party in :orth Oatolina. A large majority of the voters will come from the Demo cratic party, and just so far as tho vote of the Third party increases, the strength of the Democratic party de creases. So that, the question for each prohibitionist to decide now is thiB : Which political party do I prefer to have in power in North Carolina the Democratic or Republican? Writh either a$ a political parly we will have the saloons. We know that, and therefore it ia a choice of which party, with tbe sa'oonpj the proLlbi tionists prefer. There can be no hope of electing Mr. Walker or any of the Third party candidates. So that we are to have the saloons after tbe clec tion as we have them now. "But four years from now we will come into power," some of tbe Third party men tell us. Upon what ground this is believed I cannot possibly see. Whenever those opposed to prohibition find a;i organization of an magnitude against them tfcey will come together iu one elTo:4, bs they did in 1BSI, and the result is ttii-ily Ptnted. 0 ir only hop -, I epeit, is through local option in reaching h'se localities tlat we can control. 1 commanced voting in S ate and USUOnal ttvhtin 'n l7.i r. . for voting ih'i Democratic ticket a! that time admitted of uo que-tion or doubt. The same conditions exist todaj ; and aside from the national issuer? that divide the two great par ties here in No'th Carolina, tho question Of race supremacy must bo consideied. By th 's, I do not meat: social equality. his I do not greatly fear. But race supremacy is a fact of past history under Re publican rale in the Sou h, and therefore is not only possible but sure, if the Republicans party succeeds I have no bitterness of feeling in the matter. My record for the past twenty yea s in this city is the beat proof I can offer of my de sire to elevate and promote the moral and material good of the colored peo pie, but I am not ready to commit to their hands the government of North Carolina municipal, county and State. They-are not equal to it, or. prepared for it. I am opposed to their oppression in any way, and favor their education and treaimentas other citizens, but I do not relieve them capable of controlling and properly managing our government. It may be said that there are good men in the Republican party, and ttm I grant is true, bo;h with regard to white and colored. But.the best ele ment of that parly, so far as my ob set vatiou lias gone, have never been able to control it There were as many good meu in the Republican party ia 18fi8-'9 as theie are today, but they were uuabie to prevent the excesses to. which that parly went at I hat time. Mr Dockeiy himself says that ho came to Raleigh' duiiug the session of the legislature when the act au thorizing the Special Tax Bonds was passed, and tiied to prevent the same, but was unable to do so. As it was then so it is now, the msjoiity of the voters of ary paity give charac ter to theileaders arid coutiol their acts. 1 in Irue iu this city aud else- where, so;far as I tan tee, that the best element of the colored people are not iable to lead their race, Hence 1 am afraid for governmental affairs to fall into their hands. Not from any ill-will to them, but from conscientious convictions, For these reasons I do iot favor the oiganization of the Third party, and would warn I'- mocrats iu North Carolina from participating iu the same. We have msde rapid strides m this State in educating our people for prohibition, and if we will stand by our party, we can advance still far ther. But if we go into the Third patty, acd ia so di ii g wenken the Democratic party and cause its de feat, we shall do the cause of prohi bition lasting harm and bi ing up3n ourselves and posterity great shame, : with the possibilities of bmdemng us I with hariiships grievous indeed. I have brem induced to say this be- 1 cause pf my great concern for the I cause of prohibitio n as well as my j interest in the success of the Demo ! cratic partv. Without regard to party ! I have stood. side by side with those ) ! of my friends engaged in tbe Third party movement in former contests to i . suppress the evils ci intemperance, i anil With uli my heart and soul I am ! ready for service along the same ljne J now and hereafter; but when I am , called to go into a movement, the re j suit of which can only be harm to ' our cause, and possibly place the State of North Carolina in the hands j of men that I am unwilling should control it, uud also place this nation back in the power of tbe party that oppressed us for twenty years, and under whose reign so many trusts and combination- - were formed to grind the poor and helpless; making the few r;cbi r and the many poo-e a party that had ao little' legard for tnu over burdened , tux -paern of 'bus country a to de claro fcr free whisky, intend of pro viding for hungry inoui Le, half clothed bodies ; ud sin ireritn funnies.
