' - The Secret Conclave. A forcible reminder of the dark days of 1808 was the gathering at the Mt. Vernon Hotel, in this placeon Hon- 4ay night, ot a tew oia moss backed Republican leaders, interspersed with a sprinkling of negroes and white rene gades. J Among the number present were Dr. Holt and Judge Furches of Statesville, Rawlins and Cummings. of Asbeville; jb white negro, Coleman, from Concord, jancyof this place, John Nichols, rnember of Congress from Raleigh Tistrict, and a mysterious personage f rom New York, who probably for good reasons did not put his name on the hotel register. He might have been a representative from the house of Ajbrton, Bliss & Co., and he might not. AX any rate he was in close communion ith the faction aforementioned. - The boys want "boodle" and they would not hesitate to entertain a rep resentative from any republican source having t at their- dispo a'. Nor will they be slow to make the necessary to obtain it; and it is very cer- at money basrs. Morton, who is now endeavoring to enforce the collec tion of the fraudulent, repudiated b nds of the State, will exact of them p edgej of a substantial nature in that di rectfon. , W warn the people of this mischief, adding to the .warning the assurance tljjai it is k matter that should -claim their most earnest attention. Our elections hav) heretofore been fair and uhcorrupted, and every effort should be employed to resist the influence of those who now seek to debase them to personal and party ends. i General 8heridan Dead.

If things continue like; they are at present; the farmers will be putting up their cotton this fall in white sheeting, instead of the old time lagging. 'The reason for this is the advance, in the price of bagging. 4 syndicate, with head quarters at " S. touis, h;ts got control of 4he bagging industry of the United States, and has run the price of nagging up to ten cents per yard. Bagging that could be bought last year forO1 cents, cannot be procured for than less than ten cents. It is merely an example of the evils of mo nnnnlv. The farmers will do well to take the matter in hand at once and devise an acceptable substitute for bagging, so as to protect themselves from the exorbitant demands of this mononolv. It is out of the question for our merchants to make any profit whatever, on the sale of bagging, and the farmers should not abuse them for the high price demanded. The blame lies alone witli lung .Monopoly nar lotte Chromcfe. Our numerous cotton factories can head this nionopoly if they will, or at least we think they can. Can they not run a part of their spinners and looms on a very coarse but strong ar ticle of cotton fabric, made of spot and inferior cotton, and undersell the monopolj ? Or, rather than be impos ed on, let the old time cards and spin ning wheel come to ' the front again, as they did during the late war. Men and; women will fight rather than sub mit to a gross personal wrong. Let them resolve to wotk rather than be enslaved by greedy monopolies. Train Wreckers. If any additional laws , for the pun ishment of this class of offenders are necessary, they should be speedily en acted Most unremitted efforts should be made to discover such offenders, and the most prompt and terrible punish ment inflicted on them when found. It should be regarded as the highest crime on the calendar, and as meriting theswiftest and most fearful doom, es pecially on persons who possess common AS . m sense. A tool or drunken man com mitting it, should be imprisoned for life. Mr. Dockery has declared that if Mr. Alexander of Mecklinburg, had got the nomination for Governor instead of himself, that he would have given him a cordial support. And yet it is well knowu that Mr. Alexander is a life- ong Democrat. The Charlotte Chron icle i says "he is a Democrat of Demo crats." It looks odd, to say the least of'itfhow a republican candidate for Governor can declare his willingness to support a moss-backed Democrat. It is accounted for in the fact that Mr. Alexander is popular with the farmers, and that Dockeryis only trying to ap propriate that popularity to himself. How else can-it be accounted for? The Republicans were in power in North Carolina for several years after the war. They had everything their own way. JJoes the reader remember their manner of conductingthe affairs of the State? If not. bv all means fincLout. It is a chapter worth read ing and remembering. The promises of Republican candidates who may speak to the people are not worth a ent. Individual members may mean to be fair and just, but as a member of a party they icount as only one. - The party is the same now that it was when in power, and will be the same if jut in power again. The Confederate soldiers' re-union at Pittsboro, of which notice was given in this paper several weeks ago, was a very grand success. It is estimated hat 10,000 people were present on the occasion, and that more thau 1,000 surviving Confederate soldiers partici- pateti in it. Senators Vance and Ran som were there and addressed the ple. Col. J. R. Lane, oFChatham, was chief marshal. There were sir vpf rans of two wars present the Mexican and Confederate. Altogether it was a grana anair and one long to be 1 M re- membered.

Intense heat at Chicago, and other places in that section, Weduesday and Saturday of last week', struck down quite a number of persons. Dr. Francis H.

Jim Morehead, the Democratic nom inee is an old batchelor rf not an old man, but the Dollar Weekly says if the people elect him to Congress he will get himself a wife if he can. Ah! yes. And Hon. D.

When I fight a manaiidhiiu lick his scalp is miie." This recalls a speech made by Mr. Da vid 1. Littler, Illinois member of the Republican National Committee, at a meeting of the Illinois Republican Stnte Committee two years ago. Jut. Littler, after congratulating Senator Vance, who had just before denoudced the reform said: "I don't believe! in civil service reform in any sense, juid it is my view that the Republican par ty ought to take the position that the Civil-Service Reform Law should! be repealed, and that all Republicans in office under this administration should be turned out. Tshouts of "That's ht!" That's business?" and ap plause. I will sign the petition! of any Democrat who wants to get imv signature for the removal of a Repub lican now holding office, on the ground that he is a Republican, and has; no right to the loaves and fishes under this administration: Applause, and a voice, "Amen." Few Democrats ore as candid as Senator Vance, and fewer Republicans are as bold as Mr. Littler. It is very obvious, however that Civil- Service is not in high favor with poli ticians, and. that there is practical un animity of opinion in both parties, out side office-holders, on the subject. The two opinions we have quoted fairly liil- lustrate the fact. Wilmington Messen ger. The felicities of the Republican sit uation are touchingly illustrated by he statement of Senator Plumb of Kan sas, who is reported in our Washing ton dispatches to have said that if the beet farmers of his State are to iiccjppt a 50 percent, reduction in the duty! on sugar, they will insist on free fence wire. If these Senators take their view of the matter, the majority in the Senate will be between the devil and the deep sea.' To concede free fence wire to the farmers is to concede that protective taxes fall on the consumer, and that the farmer is equallv enti tied to free lumber for his buildings, free steel for his plows, free salt for his cattle, free bagging for his grain, free blankets for his bed, free tin for his roof and in short a free chance to man age his own affairs without being tax ed at every turn for the benefit of fa vored ; manufacturers. Whichever road the Republicans take they will wish they had taken the other. JVjY; Times., Ind. Rep. Hy Fever sufferers ought to know of its efficacy.
