Considering the relation the press bears to the country, to parties and to politi cians, its compensations for services ren dered are humi liat in. When the time comes for acknowledgment of such ser vice the chief agencies in it are thrust aside. The party claims that the press has only done Its out y. Amn uir cut Does the Citizen overlook the great privilege of being secretary to political meetings? Does it fail to remember (hai occasionally, on "off' years, the political editor is honored with an ap pointment to attend district conven turns though this is a rather rare honor. One thins is beyond all dis- 1 - - mt pute and that is that the editor does more, sacrifices mors, in time, labor and money for his party, than any other individual in the country. He is rare ly remunerated evn with pay for the job work done for the party, yet he goes right in and makes the fight in i the face of all such embarrassing circumstances. The honest editor is the highest type of the politician, ac tuated only from principle and disin terested patriotism, he is ever giving to and laboring for his party. The Duty of the Whole Country. Troy Vidette. A Republican who says he is the "son of a Republican" soldier, writes to the in. v. amn. in us: "Samuel JrTildon should be nomina ted by the Democratic party for Presi dent of the United States in justice to the country, in justice to the party itself, and in justice to the man. Samuel J. Ill den No sane person can at this time, with the light of time and impartial judgment, doubt the gross injustice done in the year 1876 to the whole people in setting aside the honest verdict of the entire nation, as shown by their votes, electing 8. J. Tilden President of the United States. If the plea is now put forth that Mr. Ti Men is too old, nominate him, and with him a Vice President in whom the country would have confidence, say Samuel J. Kendall or John O. Car Use. But, above all, right the mighty wrong ! 1 am a Blaine man, bat to right and wipe out this one black spot on my country's history I would yote for 8. J. Ti Men and vindicate the purity and stability of our American in stitutions. I am convinced there are thousands like me in the Republican party. No Republican, nor the son of any Republican, will be apt to draw the people from the line of duty as it is seen by every democrat in this country. Bo far as the nomination of President is concerned, there is no difference of opinion. G rover Cleveland is already nominated in every Democratic heart. He will be indorsed by the people. His administration certainly has the ap proval of the honest people of the United States. The writer even thinks that t heart the President is not so much of a civil serviceman as some would have us believe, but he is, by virtue of his office, obliged to execute thai and all other laws, so that no mat ter what his individual principles may be, he has no choice in the matter. There is not a doubt bat that he would veto the Blair bill. But we cannot expect to have a President in exact ac cord with all our notions. But whether in exact accord or not, no man, white, black, Democrat or Republican, can doubt the integrity of Mr. Cleveland, the best roan who has filled the Chief Executive chair since the days of Thomas Jefferson. He will be. indorsed by the people. The Republicans want to - set Sam Tilden right, do they? A Blaine man at that! Did you ever? 9 Citizen in Trouble. Our friends, the editors of the Ashe ville Citizen ,hne gotten into n little scrape with a "techy" Judge. His ac tion indicates that the Citizen was not Ur from the truth in its innocent pleasantry. The following is from a telegram in the Charlotte Observer: Asheviixf. N. C, Jolv 28. The Daily Citizen of this morning contained a re mark that in the Inferior Court, now in session, two juries had hung, and that if the court and the lawyers were hung, the Muzeu am not Know out that the coun try would be helped, this morning, Mr. 8huford, the presiding judge of the court, ordered a rule to be served on the editors of the Citizen, Messrs. Furman, Stone and Cameron, to show cause why they hoard not be attached for contempt, rule returnable tomorrow. Counsel for the claims that the words were not Col. A. W, Rowland, of Robcrson county, was nominated in the Sixth Congressional District, on last Thurs day. He succeed- Benoet. one of the best Democrat in Congress. Col. Rowland was nominated pn the 57th ballot, Mauney to to the front From all that has ln written on 1 .. ' a a a the sdbject, it was hardly expected that Mr. Mauney would have a "walk over" in Davidson, yet such seems to be the case. The tbljowihg special telegram was cut from last Stindo s Charlotte Observer: "Lexington, X. a, July 8. Town ship conventions were heurm uaviason today. Lexington, Thomasviiie ana con rod Hill instructs for Mauney for solici tor. Mauney is solid in Davidson." This is a source of much gratifica tion to Mr. Mauney and his friends, and especially so ill view of the rather unfair position taken by some of the supposed influential citifcens of Lexing- ton. The only tning against nr. Mauney is that he is a Rowan man. Sad is it hot, to live in Rowan. But the people of Davidson are a conserva tive and a fair people and are govern ed by sense rather than prejudice, consequently they voted in the primaries for their choice regardless of the county from which he Came. Rowan Townships. Telegram to Charlotte Observer. Statesvillk. N. C, July i7. -Infoma-tion has been received herei today that two or three townships in Rowan county favored B. F. Long for solicitor. Rowan is the county of Mr. Long's antagonist. The above is mean, little, and a de signed perversion of facta. The result of the primaries held in this county ere published in the Watchman, and no mention of Mr. Long was made at any of the meetings, so far as the writer has been able to gather. Mr. Long is but little known I in Rowan. The county convention passed a reso lution instructing the Rowan delega tion to cast the county vote as a unit for "Mr. Mauney, and the voice of that convention will be obeyed.! It is not likely that Mr. Long would be the choice even if Mr. Mauney was not. Will the Observer be kind enough to correct the inference conveyed in telegram ? the above Panama Canal :The severest attack yet made on this great French scheme has just appear ed in Paris, in a pamphlet of 70 pages, in which the business management is severely denounced. Only five of the 21 sections of the work have been fairly commenced, and on I these have been expended all the money yet raised. The mortality of the men engaged in the work is -reported as fearful. The New York Star reports an fit tempt to blow up the steamer, Sylvan Stream, on which was a young Brazil ian Prince, Leopold, who on invitation from polite citizens was visiting Coney Island. The diabolical attempt was reserved until the boat was returning. The boat was near New York when a man named Brown was seen hastily to snatch up from the deck a bottle with a brass covered stopper, in which was a burning fuse, and throw it over board. He had not time to examine it, and it is not positively known what the bottle contained, but it is believed it was dynamite, and that the boat and passengers, 150 in number narrowly escaped a fearful disaster. A threat ening letter had been received in the morning by one of the company de nouncing as "lick-spittles," those who were of the party honoring the Prince, anjd warning them that the time for such worship of royalty was past, and must end, &c. The. Dixon, the brilliant orator, who represented Cleveland county in the last Legislature so faithfully and so ably, has drawn the line at politics, declaring that a man cannot be a christian and a politician at the same time. Perhaps he cannot be, but oth ers may. Mr. Lnxon will probably go into the ministry, and it was doubtless with this in view that he made the remark quoted above. It is very cer tain that a man cannot be a minister and a polichln serving twd masters for the duties of either require all of a mans time. Mr. Dixon will be a very useful man . in the ministry and his friends predict a brilliant future for him. The most contemptible matter now presented the American public is in the shape of leading editorials iri the New York City press. The editors of all those immense papers are indulging in a regular black-guarding frolic. The amount of abuse reserved for the oc casion is wonderful. There seems no depth too foul for their penetration. The public must be weary, vbry weary, of it. A man by the name of Page, or Sage or some such name, said that no $orih Carolina editor could make his salt on one of those paper. Guess he was right. The trial of the anarchists at Chica go is pressing slowly, bu surely, we believe. Another loaded) dyna mite bomb has been recently found concealed in a barrel of straw, which it is thought will bts traced to ttje men now undergoing trial. juow away uum uie au. , r. x r . , . . , J . , .

Card well, under sentence to hang on the 30th of this month, has been released by a mob from the Wilkesboro jail. He had been twice reprieved by Gov. Scales, but was to hang as above stated. It is a high handed piece of work, to take a man, condemned to death by a court, from from the jail and release him. It is an outrage in every sense and the perpe trators are guilty of a great offense against the law, peace and dignity of the State. W. H. Bolton, chief of the division for hand ling. second class Postoffice mat ter at Chicago, a man hitherto highly esteemed, and said to be a particular friend of Senator Logan, was arrested on the 20th for a shortage of over $4,000, and probably ten times that much.

Thompson, the leader of the county Democracy, was found dead in his bed at the Worth House, New York, at 0 o'clock, Monday morning last. He was a distinguished man in the political circles of New York, and his sudden death created an unusual sensation following so soon after the death of John Kelly, the distinguished leader of the Tammany Democracy. Mr. J. W. Item has been renomina ted to represent the Fourth Congress ional District in Congress. He is a bright young man and makes a good representative, except in favoring the Blair bill.

However much those who knew little of the civil war are disposed to underrate the deeds of North Carolines therein. those who were in authority during the struggle have always been enthusiastic in praise of the part North Carolina played on the battle-field. The met has been recently illustrated again . A citizen of Tarboro, Mr. Geo. T. Williams, pol ished np a walking cane of Edgecombe wood and sent it to ex-president Jefferson Davis. He has received an acknowledge ment, in the course of which Mr. Davis says: "The cane is precious to mc, having been cut by a North Carolina soldier who contributed to our first vic tory in the war, and remembers, as I do with pride, the battle of Big Bethel. North Carolina did her full duty there, and it has given me pleasure often to bear testimony to the valor and fidelity of her sons on many trying occasions." "Scorn -ers may sneer at and witlings defame"' the good old state, of our love but, honorable men and men of information will ever hold her in the high estimation to Which she IS entitled. Snrtt-Obnrrrer. Mr. Robbins and the Judgeship.. Editors Watchman: I noticed in your paper of last week that a correspondent as well as your paper editorially spoke in very complimentary terms of me for Judge in this District, and since your County Convention of last Saturday. I have received letters to the same effect from friends in Rowan, besides having been frequently approached on this sub ject by friends in my own county. While I, of course, feel flattered by these complimentary notices and folly appreciate them, yet I am not a candi date, nor con I allow the use of my name for that office. I am for the nomination of Judge Montgomery, and have so declared to mv friends, repeatedly and candidly. In my estimation, Judge Montgomery is an able, impartial and upright judge, and being ment of my position due both my friends and myself. I therefore bex mv kind Rowan friends and all my friends no longer to use mv name in connection With the iddaeshio of this District, for if nominated I could not accept. Very Respectfully, F. C. Bobbins. The voters of Rowan had hoped to cast their vote for Mr. Robbins, or Mr. Pinnix, or for some man whom they considered worthy of support for the very responsible position of Judge. The people of Rowan do not favor the re-nomination of Mr. Montgomery and they frankly so state it. Certain things have come to the ears of the editors of this paper regarding Mr. Montgomery which, if not cleared up, necessarily forces this paper to oppose him. He certainly is aware of the fact that these things are being circulated to his damage, and more, he knows exactly who is doing it, yet he remains silent. He should v indicate himself or with draw from the contest Rowan County Convention. In obedience to the call of the Execu tive committee, the Democrats of Rowan assembled at the Court-house here on last Saturday. Jas. W. Rumple, Esq., Chairman of the Committee, called the house to order and requested T. C. Linn, Esq., to act as Chairman. This gentle man explained the object of the meeting aud announced that the meeting was ready to go into a permanent organiza tion. On motion, the temporary chair man was made the permanent presiding officer and T. K. Bruner and Theo. Buer baum were elected Secretaries; J. W. Rumple, Esq., then offered the following resolution, which was adopted : Be it Rewired: That it is the sense of this convention that all persons allowing their names to be pre suited to it and therein voted upon are pledged to abide its action; That it is made th,e duty of any candi date for democratic nomination to an nounce his in ten t ion to violate the action of this convention, in the event of his un successful candidacy, before he permits his name to be placed in nomination and voted upon. D. R. Julian then moved that the con vention proceed by nominating the county officers first, which, after a 'brief discuss ion, was adopted. The chair then directed the Secretary to call the roll of townships, and finding all represented, announced that the con vention would proceed with the nomina tions, beginning with the county repre sentative in the lower house of the Legislature. The Secretary was reques ted to call the roll of the townships, and the chairman of the delegation from each was requested to vote for the choice of the township. The result of the ballot was : Overman 88, Sloan 12, and Stansill 4. Mr. Overman was declared the choice of the convention. Maj. Stansill then moved that the nomination be made unanimous. Carried. The following county officers were then unanimously elected in the same way: For Sheriff C. C. Krider. For Clerk of Court J. M. Horah. For Reg. of Deeds H. N. Woodson. For County Treasurer J. Sam'l. Mc Cubbins, Jr. For Coroner D. A. Atwell. There were two candidates for the office of Countv Surveyor, the ballot re sulting as follows: B. C. Arey 68, J. C. Bernheart 36. The chair declared Mr. Arey the choice of the convention. The next nomination to be disposed of was that of a Senator for Rowan and Davie. The chair ordered a call of the roll of the townships, resulting as follows: Shober 40, Hobson 21, McCubbins, (Sr.,) 4, Kluttz 20, Black mer 10. The chair an nounced no election, and ordered a second call of the roll. Before this roll call Theo. F. Kluttz, Eaq., thanked the convention for the complimentary vote which had been made in compliance with the in struction of the primary meetings, and asked the delegates to consider them selves no longer bound by instructions, as he was not a candidate before the con vention. Proceeding with the roll call the result Was as follows: Shober 73, Hobson 21, Blackmcr 10. The chair an nounced Hon. F. E. Shober the choice of the convention for the office of Senator. On motion of Dr. Poole the nomination was made unanimous. The following resolution was then in troduced by Kerr Craige, Esq., and was unanimously adopted, as follows: Resolved, That our fellow citizen, the Hon. John S. Henderson, has proven himself an able and faithful Representa tive in Congress, and we hereby pledge him our hearty and united support for re-election. Mr. Chas. D. Crawford then offered the following resolution which was unani mously adopted, as follows: Removed: That the delegates to the Ju dicial District Convention be and are here by instructed to cast the vote of Rowan as a unit for John W. Mauney, Esq., for Solicitor. On the question of delegates to the Congressional convention, it was moved that each township be represented by one half of its representative strength t". e. one delegate to each two votes. Carried. The chairman of t he township delegations were requested to hand in the names, as instructed' in the motion just carried.

The Chair appointed a committee of three, consisting of Messrs Rumple, Ju lian and Craige, to prepare a list of dele gates to be submitted for the approval of the convention; said list to be Rowan's delegates at both the Judicial and State con vent ions. The following list was sub mitted and a p pi roved: L S Overman, J F Ross, C R Barker, SJSwicegood, J W Rumple, DR Julian, J D Gaskill, Thos Ray, Jno Sloop, J J Newman, Jas Monroe, Jas McKenzie, H C Bost, J A Clodfelter, Jesse W Miller, Dr C M Poole, Wilson Trott, S N Wilson, J C McLean, J A Earnheart, P D Linn, Dun'l Rose bo ro, J K Culbertson, Frank C Mauney, N B McCanless, Alex Morgan, T B Beall, N N Flemming, Jno O Houston, Geo Hall, Maj Stansill. Alternates: Dr I M Taylor, L H Clement, B C Arey, T C Linn, Doug las Roseman, Luke Blackmcr, Joseph Barber, Kerr Craige, J C McCanless, C D Crawford, F E Shober, J K Graham. On motion it was agreed that all Democrats attending the State conven tion from Rowan be considered as dele gates. On motion of J K Graham, a commit tee, consisting of one representative from each township, was appointed to confer with Davie as to the Senatorial nomina tion, with power to -call a meeting at South River for such conference. The chair appointed J K Graham, Jno Sloop, Wilson Trott, C D Crawford, Cornelius Kestler, J J Newman, Dr L W Coleman, J K Culbertson, W G Watson, W L Kestler, AH' Henry, C H McKenzie, J Rowan Davis, on this committee. Col. F. E. Shober being called, made a stirring speech, reassuring and eucour aging to the Democrats, and contrasting the present with former administrations. He proposes to go into the canvass with all the energy at his command. He ex plained that he had not sought the nomi nation, but that he felt, since it was so flatteringly tendered him, he could not, in justice to those who has so frequently honored him, decline the nomination. He made, as he always does, an able ad dress. L. S. Overman was then called and responded in his usual happy style. He thanked the people for honoring himjthe third time with their confidence as their representative in the Legislature. He reviewed the present situation under Mr. Cleveland, as against the preceding ad ministrations. He showed what a reform er Cleveland was and told how much had been saved to the people since the advent of his administration. He prom ised to be with Col. Shober when the time comes to make the canvass of the county, and to talk to the people when they had more time to listen. No further business the meeting ad journed. JV T. C. Linn, Chairman. T. K.

Judge Montgomery has asserted that if it becomes necessary, to bring action against a certain Life Insurance Company to recover the amount of insurance on the life of a citizen of Csvharrus county, recently deceased, he would resign his position as Judge to act as counsel for the claimant of the insurance money. I am attorney for the Insurance Company and it will resist the claim on just and perfectly legal grounds. The action must be brought iur claimant to recover. I can and will, if it becomes necessary, substantiate Montgomery's as sertion by the affidavit of a inost truthful man. If Judge Montgomery meant and spoke the truth when he made said assertion, he must soon resign his Judgeship, if nominated at Lexington on August 4th, and elected in November. If he does not resign to serve as counsel in this action, his assertion was false. The Judge can take either horn of the dilemma he pleases. If he intends to fry to show himself a man Ol trum v consiaer ii inning wiia the people of the Eighth Judicial District to ask them to nominate him for Judge at Lexington on August 4th; when, if a truthful man, he must resign; and, if he is not a truthful man, he is not fit for the position of Judge of the Superior Court. If he keeps his word, and does resign his Judgeship, he will be doing a gross injustice to honorable members of the bar of the Eighth Judicial District, someone of whom will accept the nomination at Lexington, will be elected and serve out his term. Since his appointment as Judge, acting for the claimant in this prospective action, Montgomery, on the 7th day of April 1886, filled up the "notice and proof of claim"' for claimant, which I hold in his own. handwriting, and otherwise busied him self about this cause of action just as a regular practicing lawyer would do. Maybe, in this though, he has private reasons for his action. Still, I consider it conduct unbecoming a Judge and one being a candidate for the nomination for that exalted onlce. Despising aimoy mous communications and writers, I am, respectfully, Will G. Means. Concord, July 26th, 1886. The Mexican War Cloud. MEXICAN TROOPS SURREPTITIOUSLY MOVED IXTO PASO DEL NORTF. El Paso, Texas, July 23. The excite ment on iioth sides of the river, amoMC j Mexican as well as Americ an?, hns been so - great that both governments have con cluded, for the purpoiiaof -allaying it, to conduct farther negotiations .without pab licitv. Soldiers continue in large numbers in Paso del Norte, Mexico. Thelecpj old place wears a martialan air as it is poVsfblc for such a relic of antiquity to araiine. jjk In marked contrast to this nervous exhibition of military power in Paso (del Norte, and in contrast to the eager and excited interest taken ia this international question by the citizens of El Paso, is the supremely calm demeanor of the Ur.iteti States authorities at Fort Bliss, within a few hundred yards of the hostile hills of Mexico, on the other aide of the shallow mountain stream that can be waded just now with the greatest ease. To look at Fort Bliss to-day nobody would imagine that within one mile of it a hostile city was bustling with armed men, breathing vengeance against the "Americanos," Surreptitiously a train load of troops from Chihuahua, that had been massed nd announced Friday night aa being on the way to Paso del Norte to increase the Mexican army of observation, arrived there at daylight Saturday j morning. There is no knowledge as to how many more may follow, as the Mexicans are adept in keep ing intended military movements quiet and dark. Cutting is in jail at Paso del Norte. A Mexican, named Medina, who insulted the American consul's cleik, has been in the same jail for that offense. It is well that the impression of his imprisonment got out at the time it did, as it helped materially in allaying the excitement on the Teias side of the river, which was just then at lever heat. He was tried, found guilty of creating a disturbance and fined. Cutting was brought before judge Cks tencda last evening and informed that his case had become of spch national impor tance lhat.it would have to be transferred to the first district court, where sentence would be pronounced at some future dafv. Consul Brigham tried to learn when the trial would take place, but he could get no satisfaction. It Is now thought that Mexico is determined not to give Cutting up. It is rumored on the streets of Paso del Norte that a train load of troops, with a park of artillery, is approaching the city from Chihuahua. The stiuation begins to look very serious. District Convention. The Democratic Executive. Commit tee of the 7th Congressional District, met in Salisbury last week, and decided to hold the District Convention ib Salisbury, on Tuesday the 3d day bi August, for the purpose of nominating a candidate to represent this Distriqt in the House of Representatives of tbie next Congress. L. H. Clement, Of the Ex-Coui. j July oth, 1886. A WISE REFORM. The habit of administering quinine in powerful doses, as au antidote to mala'iiaj maladies, practice has ; undergone a w ide reform.
