It seems not inappiopviate in the face
of certain declared senti jueiits which were
given to the public by jtho President in

son or two loiuuy iuusuuio .

and rules" that have heretofore controlled

Jixtx-ntive, and the forced orassamed po
sikiou now takeu by his excellency on the
subject of ifoim in this department of
our government. For this purpose we
give the subjoined, extracts taken from
the message, from which it is seen i that
his policy, as therein sei forth, fs sound
ad thoroughly Democratic on tliis vital
gilbjcct. Then it rciDajus. for ps to see if
there be found any substantial 'groands
fjr hoe of real, true, permanent reforma
tion resulting from or growing out of Presi
dent Arthur's administration, or from any
of the present leaders of his party ! But
hear him on reform After referring! to a
former propositiou made in a previous
message to Congress, h4 says :
j Since these suggestieus were submit
ted for your consideration there has been
no legislation lipop the subject to which
tley relate, bat there has ineauwhile beeu
an increase iii the publio interest 6dJ that
siil.ject, and the peopliB of .the country,
apparently without dislluction of party ,
havoiu various ways ahd upon frequent
occasions giveu expresipu to their earnest
vfish for prompt aud definite action, In
niy judgment such action should no long
er be postponed, I may vdd that my own
sen.se of its pressing iinpoi tiiuce has beeu
(juickened by observation of a practical
(iiliaso of the matter to which attention
has more than ouce been called. j
t I trust that before tho close
if the present session some decisive ac
tion may be taken for j correction of the
evils which inhere iu the present methods
olif appointment and I assure you of my
hearty cO-operation in any measures
fhich are likely to conduce to that end,
to the most appropriate term and teu
Uic of the official lin? of the subordi
uate employees of the government it seems
to be generally agreed that whatever
their extent or character, the one should
be definite aud the other stable, and that
neither should be regulated by zeal in the
service of party or fidelity to the fortunes
of ait individual, It matters little to the
people at large what coin pet put person is
at the head of this department or of that
bureau, if they feel assured that the re
moval of one and the accession of another
will not involve the retirement of honest
aud faithful subordinates whose duties
ale purely administrative and have no
legitimate connection - with tho triumph
of any political principles or the succsss
of any political party or faction. It is
to this latter class of officers that the Sen
ate bill to which I havfc already referred
exclusively applies,-while" neither; that
bill nor any other prominent scheme for
improving the civil service concerns the
higher grade of officials! who are appoint
ed by the President and continued by the
Seuate. 1 -
1 1 declare my approval of such legisla
tion as may be found necessary for sup
plementing the existing provisions of law
in relation to political assessments. In
July last I opthorijjed aj pqblic announce
ment that employees of the government
should regard themselves as at liberty to
exercise their pleasure in making or re
fining to make political contributions,
aud that their action in that regard would
ul no manner , affect their official status.
In this announcement I acted trpan he
vew which I had always maintained and
still maintain, that a public officer should
le as absolutely free as any other 4itp5eu
to give or to withhold a contribution for
the Aid of the political party of hia choice.
ii i 1 1 .5.:.. 1 1 1 1 .
i iiain, uowevur, oeen urgeu, ana uouot
less not without foundation, iu fact; that
by solicitation of official superiors, and
m other modes, such contributions have
at times beeu obtained from persons whose
only motive tor giving jms been the fear
of what might befall them if they refused.
It goes without saying that suclt contri
butions are not voluiitary, aud iu my
judgment their collection should bo pro
hibited by law. A bill; which will ettect
njjally suppress them will receive my cor
dial approval." j
1 Correct But back of all this sound the-
pmijig, what has Chester A- Arthur! done
tp show that he is in earnest f ; Ha he
ever raised his finger toward suppressing
these evils 1 Does he and his following
suppose the itelligent masses of the peo
ple do not remember the systematic way
in which "other moaV"!have most gener
ally been resorted to in; forcing contribu
tions from govern merit employees, and
understand the ftmonnt of hypocricy there

this subject as they are on mauy others
and have uuiuistakabpy demanded i relief
fom the shamefully corruptive policy
which has stigmatized American Kepub
licunisin in the sight of the civilized world.
And with ft degree of ffrontery perhaps
never before surpassed these Radical
saints haste to join honest patriots iu the
cry for reform.
i But let's reveit to the President's past
record ou this subject: s Whose adminis

most useful workers that there is a dis

Will the Star tell us why there was such
a large Democratic loss in the first, sec
oud, third and fourth Congressional dis
tricts which comprise most ot tne negro
couuties T There is a great battle oeiore
us in 1864. Our esteemed neighbor may
take our word for it, if -we wish to carry
this State iit J884. oar party has got to
do some unleadiivg before that time.
We have no disposition to engage in
controversy, for good does not result from
uch a coarse, But good-tempered dis
cussion is not controversy. If the Dem
ocratic party in North. Carolina is bi-
lug bossed, it is time. lor us an w Know
it and to find out all about it ana sei
our laces against ir. riven nt mc 1 isiv n 1
intruding, we will attempt to answer t he
quest iou aiidressed to the Star. The fall
ing ott' in the Deinocraticvote in the four
districts named, as well as in" other dis
tricts, arose from several causes. First,
t was not a general election, and tne
vote was naturally a light one, secoudly,
many Democrats were indifferent because
they were dissatisfied with the prohibi
tion bill. '
There is no use in any one shutting his
eyesto this latter fact. It is patent.
But with that we have not to deal. The
question arising on the article of the Xea-
er is differeut is the Democratic party
bossed T For ourselves we say no. lhcre
ire about seventy-live Democratic news
papers in the State, aud if any of them
are restrained in a free expression of opin-
ved it. 1 he sever
al county conventions meet as usual, and
they generally are a fair index of the lo-
calj sentiment. The State convention
are apt to be a reflex of public sentiment.
We do not niean to Ray that here and
there the friends of some aspirant or oth
er have not taken a short turn, or an
unfair hold, but we do mean to say the
Democratic party of North Carolina in
free, very free from the dominant influ
ence of any set of men. Public opinion
exerts its due sway aud (here are 110 bull
dozers among us. If there are bosses,
they 40, not exert their supposed power.
t there are bosses they drift along with
mblic opinion If it is meant that there
ire meu iu this State who are regarded
as wise, safe, sound, patriotic men, and
whose devotion to tho party is so
great aud so well established that their
advice is esteemed aud their merits ap
predated, to that we agree, liut no
man or set of men being Democrats have
any patronage worth talking about to be
stow, and this is the very foundation of
the boss sy stem.
Now who is the Democratic boss! Who
las any patronage that may lie used to
coerce public action f All of the patron
age of the entire State administration
does not amount to a row of ldus. We
doubt if all its patronage could control
fifty votes if thrown against the ruling
public, sentiment. Men are prominent
because people come to have confidence
in their wisdom and patriotism, and
prominent men are accepted as! leaders of
public thought as loug as they are iu ac
cord with public seutimeut,
"Who is the Democratic bogs?" We
had "occasion to ask this question
week or two ago, but as yet uo one has
answered it. In the name of all the gods
at once, if any one knows who is 'boss
mg" the Democratic party of the State
''for their own aggrandisemeut" let him
name the man, the time or times, the
place or places, and how, and why, aud
all about it. Any ouo making the chanre.
and feeling that the party must "unload"
some one or more of its prominent men,
owes it to himself and the party to make
a full exhibit of all the facts upon which
he oases his opinion. Let us have the
facts, uud let them pass for what they are
worth.
There is a bill before Congress to ap
propriate $10,JOO,000 a year for educa
tipual purposes, to be distributed among
the States in proportion to their illitera
cy. The Charlotte Journal well Pavs if
the money is to be managed by gtate am
