I - V SI. V '1 Mi...' Carolina Watchman. THURSDAY, FEB. 25, 1886. The Blair BilL The Watchman has no apology to of fer taste enocftition to the Blair educa tional steal. It is actuated only by mo tiveijfcuuded on principle. The measure i nifVnrience with all the teachings of Democracy; is antagonistic to our Repub lican form of government; is adroitly aimed at States Rights; is unconstitutional and mav be considered the arch enemy- to Ihe peace and' happiness of the people of the South. Read the article on the outside of this paper under the iieacb of 'The States Righle Killer." It is an aggregation j of views touching this matter and is not conftped to party lines. Hear Ingalla when he exclaims in the U. S. Senate : "do not insult the people of the Jrthern States by declaring that they want any portion of this dona tion of $77,000,000 . We do not want it." jpo not insult the honest'people of North Carolina, they do not want it ! Again he says: "I have heard this mea sure spoken of as an act of restitution, a contribution to the national conscience fund, as if the North, in overcoming the South and in securing the freedom of the slave and enfranchising the freedmen, was thereby compelled by virtue of that fact to ear the entire burden of educat ing them up to the condition where they would be properly competent and quali fied to .exercise the sufferage." This seems to be the idea of many. In this View of the -Case great injustice is being done the South. In every State 'ample provision is made for the education" of the negro, Iu Ndrth Carolina the negro has an equal share of the school funds (and he pays but a farthing of the tax) and enjoys ull the privileges of the whites in that particular. , The South has shown that it is able and willing to educate the negro nud amid all the privations and op pressions following the war has from her scantily filled coffers given an equal sharo for bis education. But if Congress or Blair wishes to relieve the people of the South of the duty of educating the negro, why not say so and make the fight on that issue (which would, he as unconstitutional as the present scheme, and no more so,) and not subject the white people to the humiliating position of accepting money on terms which at once robs them of the right to dictate in the matter and maimer of their children's education. Touching the unconstitutionality of , the measure, the Wilmington Star pub lishes the opinion of George T. Curtis, probably the greatest lawyer in the North, which first appeared in the New w York Star, as follows: In the body of the Constitution the phrase "the United States'' occurs thirty three times, exclusive of its occurrence in the taxi ng clause, and in every one of these thirty-three places the context shows plainly that it is the political corporation of the government of -the UnitedjBtates that is meant. The same phrase occurs in onlv three places when it means the terri torial extent of country, and in this use the language is in every instance "through out the United States," meaning through out the whole group of Statesjvhich com pose the Union. Iu the taxing clause we have the usof the term "United States,'.' in both senses, When it is used in refer ence to the Constitutional purposes of tax ation the meaning obviously is the gov ernment of, the United States. When it Is used m reference to the rule of uni formity of duties, imports and excises the meaninc is expressed by saying "through out the United States," thai is everywhere throughout the Union. This is no close or strict construction. It is tkeneccssaru construction. The lan guage 'cannot - be otherwise interpreted withqrtmakiug the taxing jowcr com prehend 1 o h a power to raise an unlimit ed quantity of money and a power to ap propriate and apj)lyit to feeding or clothing the people of a State, just as well as to ap propriate and apply it in teaching them to read; and write. Food and clothingtare fust as necessary to the welfare of a people as education;' rather more necessary if we take the wants of mankind in their na tural order. There are" persons who persuade them selves that grants of the public lands to States to aid in promoting education are precedents for laying taxes and giving the money tojStatses for purposes of edu cation. The United States is a great landed proprietor, and, like any other owner of land, it can give the land that it Owns to a State, or to the people of a State, for any purpose whatever. Some times this is done upon the theory that settlement on the land, and the educa tion of the settlers, will enhance the value of the remaining portion which the Uovernmeut does not thii dnnntn ti, theory ,however, is not necessary to the iustiucpfeon of such grants. They mav be mum, Just as any other owner of land can donate his lapd, for any reason that he sees t so far as the government is not restrain! by the conditions of the ces sions hy which it acquired the land. But Mr. Blair's bill does not propose to grant public land to the States to promote educa tion andTfcpessing ft Congress will not act as a land owner. It proposes to tax the people of the United States bv many mil lions, aud to appropriate and apply the mo ney to the education of the people of cer tain States If the power to do this can be found in the taxing clause, the measure will be constitutional. it cannot be found there, the measure will be a monstrous and ihingeroux assumption of a power with out any constitutional basis whatever. I do not know for what valuable end the Democratic party is in power in the executive branch of the government or In the House of. Representatives, unless it te to secure o sound interpretation and ad ministration of the Constitution, If the po wcssion and the enjoyment of the offices is the sole or. principal object for which the Democratic party is to consider itself as mtuusted W the people with power in any branch of the government, the peo ple have perhaps gained less than thev meant to accomplish. I hope they meant to whatever extent they favored the Democratic party, to secure a conservative and faithful defense of the Constitution, Kittorial in jfew York Star, Dem. -There seems no longer to be room to doubt mat one or the other of the pend ing educational bills will pass both Houses at Congress. The Blair bill intro duced rn the Senate, and the Willis bill introduced in the House, differ somewhat ju, deiHpNrt-hflh proceed upon the theory that Congress has the constitu tional right to Tax the people of the Uni ted States for the purpose of establishing and maintaining common schools in the separate States. There is no warrant for such an exercise of authority to be found in anyair and reasonable construction of the Constitution. The step is a great and dangerous one t4 warH ( oncent rntion of unauthorized Dow er in the hands of the Federal Govern ment, and the fact that it commands the nnrinnrt ," Knth 1? i 1 il 1 1 ) 1 i ( 111 S ATld licmn. crais snow now serious veen ic uemuri lization wrought by the centralizing ten demcies of twenty years of Republican rule. We cannot bring ourselves to believe (hat the Democrats who. support this measure are ignorant of the fact that it .violates the traditions of Democracy and the theories of constitutional construction to which their party has been thoroughly committed from the- days of Jefferson . 1 . L J. JL - J i down to the present time. It ie not igno rance ot these tacts unit influence their action, but the fear of oWendina constitu encies that expect to secure pecuniary gain, or at least reliel from pecuniary burdens. The ordirmrv man looks at nolit.ir-sil nroh- lems simply with a view to their imme diate results. Many Southern communi ties reeoeruizinsr the necessitv for the edu cation of the people, now that all are voters, nevertheless feel keenlv the cost of1 providing for such education, and eagerly turn to the Federal Government for assistance. They forget that the taxes shoulders as do those levied by their local authorities. Tbev nut aside therefore their prejudices against augmenting the powers oi tne central Government, and demand of theii renresentatives in f!nn- grusa uie support oi a measure wnicn, n appears , to them, Mill pour a golaen stream into impoverished communities. This confusion of thought, which leads men to think that a mere shifting of the bur den can be made a source of profit or relief, is only one of the inevitable conse quences of pernicious system of indirect taxation. Seventh District in Congress. The Seventh District has an able work er in Congress, and it gives us pleasure to reproduce what is said of him. Under the head of "General Civil Service Re form" the landmark's correspondent says: Representative Henderson's civil service bill has received hearty commendation from a good many of the papers of the State. Tliis is because it appeals to common sense and is ba-ed,on lmsiness nnhciules. We are all in favor of civil service reform. We want a clean and efficient civil service, We want no Federal officeholders bossing ward and township politics. We demand that they shall not prostitute their offices to partisan purposes. But we want no aris tocracy of officeholders. The people are not in sympathy with the idea that the ac quisition of an office means a vested right iu it. They are not willing that clerksTor others coming within the purview of the law as it nowxisits, shall be superior to the casualties of politics which attend those persons who hold elective offices Away with the idea that all those who are now out shall stay out until death shall overtake all those who are now in. Mr. Henderson's bill prescribes a term of office four years. That is just and sensible and right. X must commend itself to all who are in favor of civil service reform and who are yet opposed to the life tenure of officeholders. And touching internal revenue reform the same writer says : Representative Henderson ia making special study of the internal revenue lejris- jauon ana nas discovered some valuable information, which may influence the com mittee on ways and means to report a bill materially modifying the internal revenue system for the better. Of coarse he is in favor of an absolute repeal of the wh?.le law. This, however, it is not possible to accomplish now and therefore he will further any plan by which the obnoxious features of the system cau be removed. The tax on brandy will probably be much reduced and the hope is entertained that vast numbers of internal revenue officials may lie dispensed with. There is a strong feeling in Congress and at home, that whis key and tobacco are good enough luxuries to tax; and the clamor against the svstem is nn account of the inquisitorial, tyranni cal and vexatious enforcement of the law and not against a reasonable tax upon such articles. Every political economist knows that the tax after all is really paid by con sumers of things by those who drink spir its and smoke and chew tobacco, &c. Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Cline, of Hickory, are here, stopping at the Metropolitan. Mr. Henderson carried them to see the Presi dent on Friday. On Tuesday he went with Col. John L. Brown, of Charlotte, on the same mission. All expressed themselves as highly pleased with their reception by the President, who talked sound Democratic doctrine. Grover Cleveland is a growing man and is immensely popular with the masses of the people everywhere., That is certainly true. Editor. The Charlotte Democrat compliments Mr. Henderson's plan for the time of holding and length of the sessions of Congress, as follows : The Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections has reported Mr. Hoai's bill pro viding for sessions of the Congress in the Fall. The bill fixes the time for 1887, and evry second year thereafter on the first Monday in October, and in 1886 and every second year thereafter on the second Mon day in November. The idea is to lengthen the short term and to prevent the Ion v term trom stretching too far into the BUtn nier. But Mr. Henderson's, (of N. C.) pro position in the House is much better It provides for two terms a vearr the first in March and the second in January, omitting the holidays. s Wilmington's Calamity. The great fire in Wilmington was a se rious blow to that tnwn Tli i -- uo mas its probably bet ween a half and a million of dollars. Aside from the crippling of some and utter destruction of other business bouses, the loss to families whose resi dences, were consumed is very great. Some are rendered entirely homeless, while others have lost their life-savings of furniture, as well as all articles of com fort and ornament such things as can never be replaced. The calamity leaves Wilmington's business prospects in n more than depressed condition. Public meetings are being held and active steps are being taken to begin at once the work of rebuilding, which will require many years to complete. The Star in speaking of the terrible calamity which has befallen the city says: "Great and distressing as is the calamity the people of Wilmington have very great cause for uianttsgmng to Almighty God that it was not greater. The XSSSS 2 uieMnole destruction." Sabbath caused The Sabbath. "The violation of the Sabbath," says Wilmington Star, in its report of the ter rible calamity by fire, which fell upon the city last Saturday night, "caused the whole destruction." And when it is con sidered that the loss of property is esti mated at nearly one million of dollars, and that hundreds have been turned out into the streets penniless, and that the city has sustained a back set which will require years to regain, the violation of the Sabbath was certainly a costly indul gence. . The late Sam'l Reeves, Sr., of this place, for many years before his death, though not a professing christian, was wont to vindicate the observance of the Sabbath on business principles. The writer well remembers an instance cited by him. He was making brick and had 5,000 on the yard one Sunday afternoon when a threatening cloud arose in the west. He assented to an attempt to save them, and his foreman put hands to work and saved them. But two weeks thereaf ter he had 10,000 brick on the yard, and to use his own Words "There came a storm and I lost every one of them. I have always believed," said he, "that God did it to rebuke me; and I will never again work on Sunday, except in a case which clearly admits of it." Speaking of Mr. Reeves, brings to mind another incident in his life worth re lating: He saw a man on the street one day looking- for a horse and plow to break up a small lot for a spriug crop. Without a moment's hesitation he tender ed him a horse and plow. "Send your man out to my place," said he, " the horse is! already in the gears, ploughing; but tell Jim to send him right away." It is not often you can find a man will ing to stop his own work to oblige a neigh bor; but it was no uncommon thing for Mr. Reeves to do. He was obliging almost to a fault. The Wilmington Tire. Wilmington has had a destructive fire, destroying about $500,000 worth of pro perty. The fire originated on the steam er "Bladen," which set fire to the wharf and sheds, and a hiirh wind spread the flames to the business houses on Water Street. Three blocks on this street were consumed, besides residences on other streets next to Water Street. The Char lotte Observer of Tuesday has telegraphic information in regard to the fire as fol lows i February 22, 3 p. to. The loss , by yesterday's fire is fortunately much less than at first reported. The total loss is now estimated at $500,000 and insurance at $400,000. Some of the principal losses are as follows: Schooner Lilfie Holmes, loaded with guano, loss $80,000, no in surance: the general offices of the Atlantic Coast Line and two freight warehouses, net loss $30,000; the steamer Bladen, loss $5,000. no insurance; Front sheet -M. E. Church, loss $3,000, insured. The business houses of Worth &Worth,Alexander bprunt &Son, C. B. Wright, G. J. Boney, Kercher & Calder Bros., Smith & Gilchrist and the Champion Compress Company were all partly insured. In the Brooklyn section of the city nineteen buildings were destroyed, causing a loss of $15,000, with but small insurance. Among the buildings in t hut part of the city were the St. Barnabas school house, . colored, Trinity M. E. Church and a number of small dwellings and stores. While the Front Street church was burn- mr a netrro fell from the roof and hrnlr both of his legs. Several other accidents occurred during the progress of the fire, but none of a serious nature. A Social Atrocity. An exchange wisely remarks that under all ordinary circumstances the gentleman offers his left arm, ladies being presumedly right-handed, and if the lady needs sup port she, avails herself of liiis assistance. But for a gentleman to grasp the arm of the lady with whom he is walking, as if he were a policeman escorting-her to the cala boose, is a social atrocity, and a lady would he justified iu declining'to be again escorted by a man so unfamiliar with the customs of elegant society. Sunr.y South. Yet many ladies thoughtlessly permit this impolite familiarity. The "arm clutch" is disgusting to people of refined feelings and a display of that kind on the streets is, to say the least, highly im proper, Some of the Ohio legislators, in trying to do away with the competition between convict and free labor, want back to the sjstem of working the convicts in gangs on the public roads. Ex. And they are exactly right. For labor should be protected from such competi tion. The people should be relieved of the road working law, and should build and sustain public roads by direct taxa tion, and by such help as the State can give from the army of convicts. When this is done, coupleted with a systematic scheme for maeadami ' O m-M'W roads, the highways of the State may be made passable at all seasons. Sherman's hopes of beinir President, have faded like the morning glory under tne noonday sun. The rays of Hoar's Presidential Succession Bill have wither ed that seven-hued flower of hope. Under the new law the Secretary of State snr- ceeds to the office of Vice President nd Mr. Bayard takes Mr. Sherman's place. The Charlotte Observer has gone back to its orignal 4-page proportions and disr- ded the readv set nlate TTlfittpr oil d? v X mmm y w w ui Ji which is an improvement, The readers of that paper here are gratified at the change.

For more than forty years he has been the acknow ledged chief of temperance orators. His was a checkered life. The Philadelphia Times says of him: "Up tothe time of his death Mr. Goush has spoken to more than nine millions of people and had travelled over live hundred tuuuaaiiu uiiics iu inecini ins appointments. 'What a wonderful career John B. Gough has had,' said a noted character recently. 'First a pauper, bury ins: his mother ia Potter's Feld, then an actor burlesquing temperance, tiiefl drunken loaler, then a disturber of meetings, then a would-be suicide, and finally the greatest orator of the country." Sherman on the Presto, Poor Sherman ! He recognizes that the sands in the glass of his political prefer ment have dwindled down until the pit in the teaspoonful yet remaining looks like the mouth of a "doodle-bug's" hole, from which he crawls to say : "The tyranny of the press in this country is becoming simply awlul. It is worse than the old tyranny of the slaveholders. It will cause a worse revolution, than slavery did. It will not be bloodless, either. Why, the gossip of "the press has destroyed social freedom of intercourse: It has made men afraid of their neighbors; it has led to general suspicion and distrust. No man can open his mouth any more and be sure that his confidence will be respected. No man can write to his acquaintance and be sure that his letters will not appear in print.

The Hohton Renew, (Tenn.) very pro perly objects to increasing postage on fourth class matter. It says : We notice a suggestion that the rate of postage on Fourth Class matter be in creased to double the present rate, in order to increase the revenues of the P. O. Department. Jes so. Doubtless Express Companies would pay well to have this done. Should such a Bill be introduced, we suggest that it be styled "An Act to benefit Monopo lies, at the expense of the people." The P. 0. is essentially the people's de- ?artment. They ALL feel its benefits, hen why should not the Treasury con tribute something to its support if neces sary ? Which of the other Departments is supported by a direct tax on the people? We say enlarge, rather than restrict its beneficial operations. vv e do not believe that an increase of postage on Fourth Class matter, would increase the revenues of the derwirtment It would simply transfer such matter to .express companies. Tnese Companies would dance while the oeorde naid the fid. dler. We are already paying enough sub- smies. levy no pronioitory tantt on Fourth Class mail matter for the benefit ot Express Companies.

We are glad to find that our comments have aroused a responsive sentiment, uross, and we may say con temptuous, injustice has been done the red men in the general i nori ng oft heirexistence in the very land in which as a remnant they still survive, and of service rendeied in time of trouble by those from whom the reverse mignt Have been expected; for the whites had sowed the wind, and they expect to reap the whirlwind. Junaluskec should not have been forgotten; for bis services to the whites in the war of 1312 were unselfish, generous and great. Eone guskee should not have been forgotten; for to him his tribe owes the check to the debauchery, idleness and drunkenness which were fast sweeping them away, put them on the paths of industry and sobrie ty, and gave one of the most striking illus trations of the capacity of the indian for the reception of the arts and habits of civilization. And apart from the question of the re cognition of service, there is something due tojpropriety in the use and 'ocality of names, i nere is- narsn solecism in the presence of anglo-nomenclature when the original local names suggest themselves as the natural and proper ones. The names of Uobbiusvilleand Charlestonare as much out of place as that of John Smith or Peter Thompson would be inscribed on the face of the pyramid ofGhizch.

Edit&'s Citizen : I hope you will give me a little space in your valuab!e paper. I noticed in your issue of the 14th inst. an article under the head of "Our Noinencla ture," which struck me with some force; andJ wish to add the following to the list of Indian names retained in Graham, viz: Atoah, Taloolah and Stecoah, (Little Cat.) The English of the first two I do not know. I do not think your suggestion in reference to Robbinsville and Charleston a good one.- I see no good reason why Rot.binsville should not be changed to Junaluskah, after one of the greatest of his trile. Robbinsville now stands on a part of the fine tract of land donated to him for his friendliness to the whites, and herojc deeds iu the war of 1812. He lies, with his squaw (wife) within two hundred yards of the Junaluskah hotel in Robbinsville. and shame ought to mantle the cheeks of the white man when be passes the place ot his interment. There is nat a stone to mark his resting, nor tell of hia heroic deeds. Shame on us all. A. G. P.
