"of Orange County. I . Turning Over. From present indications this is . going to b6 a favorable year formen fo change the course ot their political Hvcp. :, The Democrats of North Caro lina, and pf the Union, without any special reference to catching votes, have had the good fortune of putting . inio the field as standard bearers men . of Igood renown honest, patriotic men who. know tbo right and 'have the firmness the right to pursue. Now, this is a great point gained ; and it is gojng-to drawinto the Democratic 7paty many of those hoijeart. men who 1 hve herctoforo acied With the Repub I liclns; for, say what you please about itslprinciple and the policies of par tie?, the character of the men leading thlm exerts a powerfur influence on th minds, of those voters who have . neither the time nor the inclination to ntnjly the.'qnestions on which parties differ. Mr. Cleveland, for instance, is a tried man. He has ithown his char Aster, and proved himself to be trnst- jWoHhy as the President 6f this great country. He is a fearless, impartial and faithful execntive. officer-who makes the Constitution and the laws hisirule of action. He is just as cer tain io resist tbo Democratic party if it i goes wrong according to his Judgment arjie is to the Repnblicaxi party. He Considers his first and foremost duty is io tbo whole sixty million people of the country, and not to a fractional part of tbem. He does not keep company witn jobbers, speculators, or scoundrels of jiigh or low degree. He ia not a gif t-taker, has no special fondness for bull pups, nor South American jack- am4? Vinf.

It will sweep the country in 1888, red bandanna, white bearer, CleTeland, Thnr manandalL Wvutom Sejmblicen. The old men of the country who took part in the memorable, campaign of 1840, will'laogh at- the above ridi cnlous comparison, offered as favoring the Republican party. All the win ning points of resemblance between the Whigs and Democrats of 1840, belong to the Democrats of to-day as against the Republican- candidates. The only thing they have at all is that their nominee, Harrison, is a grandson of the lament Wm. Henry Harrison of 1840; and when, we would ask, were free American people known to run after anybody because his father or grandfather was a great man ! They "are not niade in that way," neighbor. You must start better (nonsense than that If there be any of that sort they are the worshippers of Bob Lincoln and Fred Grant Republicans, every hoof of; them. J. P. Robbins, in the J Lenoir Topic, says that he attended tne Republican State Convention as a delegate went there ns sound a Republican as any man in the body; but thathe was thor oughly disgusted at what he saw and heard, and came away a changed man politically. But we will let him tell it as follows: , . i "When I left Wataaga county I was con rinced that the present system of county gov ernment ought to be changed, and that the cry of "nigger," brought against the Republican party, was originated by demagogues for po litical purposes. After attending the conven tion I was completely changed in my opinion, for I saw with my. own eyes j negroes jostling their way among the white delegates, acting aproarlngly and making themselves unduly prominent in the transaction of business. They took complete control of the convention at times and frequently it was impossible for a white man to get the floor or to get a respectful hearing. There were two negro secretaries of the convention, and during a portion of its sit ting it had a negro presiding officer. Two of the four, delegates to Chicago were negroes. Altogether there was too much negro in the convention to suit me; and although I have been Republican, I am a white man and be Ieare in white men ruling North Carolina. I fully appreciated, for the first time, what the people of the East have to contend with in fighting against negro rifle and negro insolence, and my ideas of county government have alto gether changed. ! am in favor of the present system of cdunty government. I take this op portunity also to state that I do hereby formal ly withdraw from the Republican party, which is responsible for any danger there may he of foisting negro rule upon North Carolina." 6th District. The Democrats of this District met in Wilmington on June 27th, -and nominated the Hon. Alfred Rowland, of Robeson county, as a candidate for Congress. " - - - ' Mr. S. J. Penlbcrton, of Stanly, was then put in nomination for Elector for the Sixth District. Columbus county seconded the nomination; and when Union county was called Mr. Coving ton moved that Mr. P. b declared Elector by acclamation, which was done amidst tremendous cheering. The delegations had a pleasant time and finished up their work most har moniously. Re-nnion. There was a grand re-union of sold iers, northern And southern, on the Gettysburg battle ground last Sunday. Taey met thereto pay honors to the gallant soldiers who fell in that terrible fight, and to shake hands across the bloody chasm. One of the north ern orators of the day -said the charge of . Picketts division u had . never been excelled in the history of the world." Another said uit was without a parallel." Truly. Southern valor can be recognized by a northern soldier, htifc in inia was too Nearly bought. Alas, the price. ! . General R. Sarringer For Cleveland. Trie Charlotte Chronicle of Tuesday, brought . tho gratifying news that General Ruf us Barringer has annoyncc ed (to a reporter of that paper) .that he will support the Democratic ticket for President.- Mr. Barringer has doubtless retched the conclusion from high -and patriotic considerations, and as such his example is worthy the at tention of all soatjiem republicans who prefer the best interest of the country to the promotion of party. ! Who ia CS. Rozzelle, of Denver, Sj C.?.wuRocked in the cradle of Den ocracy," as he says in his two column card, he has become a Republican, fonder what's the inatteri with Mr. Rozjselle and whether Cleveland and Tbnrman cap stand such a departure, ' Hon. W. H. H. Cowles has also lost a ototiifnefur because he has failed to give good times, make money plen- iy ana aoousn tne internal Revenue. He hails from Laurel Branch, N. C but fails to give his name, Cowles is as badry rnfyed by this "bosoms friendt? as Cleveland and.Thurman by Rozzelle. s The above-information is gathered from the Union BepuWc'2rit of Win- Voice of nar People. 5 ? ifrl Editor.' I observe the names of various persons announcea i in your paper as suitableJpresentativea of Row an in- toe nouso oi vudiwvu?. veari Rowan has been well represented by a CiUzcn of Salisbury oj me iegai pro- : - - - - fessi?D, Dut M it seems w ue i-uf 8lrC u, the farmers to .have one of their-, own number to represent them in the next Legislature, it behooves them to bo pru dent! cautious and circumspect in-the selection of their candidate; one who should be well qualified in all reppects for legislating, a worthy successor of hi rjredecessor, an honor to his county, and f not simply a machine to answer when called, and to vote When told to do so, and how to vote. Rowan, in the. next Legislature, will have: only one representee, (the Senator being from Davie), and he will be thrown upon his own responsibility in the decision of all questions presented. He should therefore 'possess more, than ordinary intelligence, and, if possible, legislative experience; a man of pru- of broad and liberal views,, of energy and industry, of not many word and those direct and pointed, an indefatigable working member. Jfow, it seems to me, after taking a survey of all the legislation material mentioned, that J. S. McCubbins is just the man for this position. .He has all these qualifications and many others. He Was twice elected to the House of- Common, in the year3 1874 and 1876, and proved himself an active, intelligent and working member. During these ses sions! the State debts were compromised and the sale of the W. N. C. R. R. con summated measures of vital conse quence to the tax payers of the State. Mrj McCubbins is one of the people, a self-made man. the sole architect of his own fortune, the result of indomitable industry, energy and entei prise, guided by a kind and generous nature, always equitable- and just in all transactions. It is intimated that he is not a farmer. This does him great injustice. He not only;6wns one of the best farms in the county none leased but he also owns two small farms near the city of Salis bury t nut ne cultivates nimseit. Jtie is therefore triply a farmer, and I myself a farmer, feel assured that the interests of the farmers of Rowan could not he caH trusted to any one who would more cau tiously protect them. A farmer. Afri Editor: Who will be the candidate for the Legislature? This question has been ask ed a number of times within the last few weeks. There are many candidates but there will be but on 4 nominee. A number of names have been ;mentioned, among which we notice L. II. Roth rook, J. L. Sifford, J. S.-McCubbins and C. D. Crawford. Now. let U3 not go blindly kito this matter. Let us not think "all is gold that glitters'; that success is ours whether a canvass is made or not; that, put up whomsoever we may,! the people will rally to his support. This is a mistake. We would say be cartful. We have nt landed "safe within the vail." We need: a leader; we need a man acquainted with the Operations of both parties; a man that cm go before the people and tell what they do not know; a man that can down Bingham; a man in whom the people can place their confidence without hesitency. Snch a man we have; a man, who has been tried and who has always been found faithful, doing all in bis power to carry out his pledges and t6 advance the inter ests ;of our common people. Lee 9. Overman is the one man to carry the Democratic banner through the coming cam paign. ! What though he is from Salisbury? What is that to us if our interests arc best maintained through him? Wc can see no good reason i why he shotiM cot bo unanimously nominated at the County Convention and we can ;seerevery reason wny ue snould be nomi nated. I - Fellow citizens, think! Do you remember how nearly the Rads, and Independents and guiheafheaded negroes and stud horse keepers cainie rilling the last Assembly? Then how mcuiqbent it is upon ns to send a man of In fluence; a man acquainted with the operations of the Legislaturewho is able to manipulate and; utilize everything for the best of our country and people in common I So let every township rally to Overman on the 14th and on the 21st let bis nomination be unanimous. i VOTERS. j Doctor Shearer Accepts. thk following letter has been haud- ed us for publication and it is likely to prove highly gratifying to many of the friends of vldsjii College: Rcv J. Rumple, D. D., Secy. Board of 'Prvttee$ of Davidson College: Dear Bro': Your official notice of mv election to the Presidency of Davidson Colleger, with accompanying documents, camb duly to hand. Tics of personal interest and friendship and above all of congenial and; successful work in my Eresewt position make it exceedingly ard for me to relinquish it, even for one so important as this to which you call me. ine nearly unanimity of your Board and also of the institution in calling me to this position, wholly unsought by myself, is no small factor in helping me to decide imsioDea can 01 me Master. 1 do therefore accept it as such, relying upon His grace to guide me in tbo untried future, j Were I a mere novice in College works I might fail to realize its difficul ties and responsibilities; as it is, I can but tremble witn a tull sense -of them alf, while I entreat Him to bear them for me and! through me. The cause is his. Davidson College has done a noble work for Him, and I trust that' there is a still morej giorious for this school of the church. Allow me through you to thank the Board of Trustees for the conGdenco re posed in me. If God will, it shall not prove; to be misplaced. Allow me also to thfmk you, my dear brother, for the kind land assuring way in which vou have Informed me of their action and of your i personal sympathy and support in the discharge of my new and official duties.

The days are now here when your time is quite dear, So get you a clock, that on time you may steer. I have clocks for all people, the rich and the poor, From $1.25 to $18 in store.
