North had within its ranks
thi-fH fourths of ' the lower

with her people. It 1j no secret
no new discovery. And hence
il is perfectly natural that her

The poor'and the ignor

t r.lliliate with the rich and
I - ti 1. If there is a party that
i - not so rich they will go to it.
!u the old times the poorer
riases of Georgia were Demo
crats for the same reason. It
was rare to find a wool hat or a
one-callus man among the
whiirs. The , whig party of
Cenriria. represented mainly her
wealth and culture. The whig
Ihys in our schools and colleges
outnumbered the Rons of Demo
cratic fathers three 1 to one
Now, I'm afraid that this will
otl'end some Southern Demo
crats, but it is- nevertheless a
fact and can be proven by Dr.
Miller, and Dr. Felton, and
. I mitre Underwood, and a host
o i others who. associated with
or followed the lead of Craw
ford, and Troup, and Toombs,
and Stephens, and Jenkins, and
i li.Mi Hill. The records of Frank
lin col Ieue prove it. Joe Brown's
remarkable career as a poli
tician and a statesman proves
it, lor he sprang from among
t lie masses the common peo
ple and they followed him be
cause he did. The first war he
ever waed vas against 'the
aristocracy their wealth, their
hanks, and their railroads.
Hut let that pass. The time
Vas when I shouted for the
1 democracy and thought - the
country was ruined If a whig
as elected. . Young editors are
affected that way now at every
election, whether State or
National. With them party is
a bitter thing than principle.
In tact, it is a bigger thing
with all partisans, bo much so
that before they know it they
become offensive partisans.
Their side are all saints, and
the other all sinners. Now here
are two National platforms, one
for protection and the. other
n jurist it. As Congressman
Mount said: "There is no
straddle- this time ; the. issue is
made up, the lines are drawn,
ana trio great hght has to be
muIh."
Now, if political principles
controlled editors and states
men, then Joe Brown and Dr,
i'.fltou and Colonel Hanson and
L a host of Southern protection
ists ought to. fall out of the
Democratic columns and join
the Republicans, and the Con
stitution and the Chronicle, and
the Nashville, Chattanooga and
Uiniiirikrhaui papers ought to
hoiHt the Harrison banner,
Thajt would look like consist
ency: Butthe reason they do
not is because they have , but
little faith in platforms, and do
have faith in the honesty of
Cleveland's administration, and
a liberal distribution of the of
fices, dignities, rewards, emolu
ments and the et ceteras there-
or. Oeneral Harrison may be
just as honest, but we do not
know it, ana besides he is
standing on a platform that is
insulting to the South, for the
honor, the good name and the
. self-respect of the Sooth isa
bigger thing with us than party
or platforms, or anything else.

gun at us, and denounced a man
whom our people have delight
ea k nonor, i nave said my
say about that, and the young
edi tors have had their say about
me, and so we are all . even all
round; and now let ns all be
calm and serene! For twenty-
three years we have beep drill
ed into prudential silence; and
it has availed us nothing; Our
prudence has Jbecome .servility.
and we have yat so accustomed
to being watched and hawked
at that it is our normal condi
tion. We dodge everr time
they make a motion whether
they throw or not. John Sher-
nia.ii and his bummers came
down here and stole the vote
ot'a whole State and yet a
S J .am . . .
;very election mey indict ua
for intimidating the negro on
, of his vote- They know that
that is a plausible lie; and
even if it was a fact, it Is none
"i ineir ousiness. There are
thousands intimidated at the
North intimidated by their
iinployers in the great manu
v lactones, but W8 make no fuss
.bout it.. Our candidates elec
.loneer with the neirroes
just like they do with the
v hite folks, but nobody says a
word to them at a presidential
election. They can't even get
a drink or a chew of tobacco
for their votes and so they have
quit voting pretty much. We
don't need them. The. State is
solid anyhow.- A few darkies
went up to "Chicago as dele
gates from this State, but there
are not five colored men in this
town who knew who they were
or who sent them or what 4hey
went for. They didn't care if
they didn't know. They will
tell you when asked about it
that they "haint got no time to
be foolin' away wid dat busi
ness." It is better to kick back
when they kick us. Give tit for
tat as Ben Hill did, andBob
Toombs, Hill-eonrmatiaen the
respect of the Northern people
by his bold and manly utter
ances., Even Jim Blaine became
his friend, and they were often
seen in fellowship together, and
Blaine was the first to contri
bute to Hill's monument.-
Politics is a riddle anyhow.
Ve can't . understand how
Northern Republicans and
Southern Democrats in Con
gress can be so friendly. How
tkey can joke and drink and
frolic together; and then lam
away in their speeches like
they would fight f it wasn't
against the rules of the House,
or the Senate. Maybe if it
wasn't against sth rules, they
wouldn't lam away so bad. Let
a man look back and contem
plate the bitter feuds between
many of bur greatest men, as
Toombs and Joe Brown, ! and
Hilland Stephens, f and Colquitt
and Norwood, and Gordon" and
Bacon. Think of the rings that
have been broken, and ,new
on and defied the storm.
After all It is not a man's
politics that establishes his
character or his patriotism. It
is his heart, his charity, his
toleration. Ben Butler and
Horace Greely were never so
great, so noble as when they
stood by and defended Jefferson
Davis In his prison life. Grant
was never greater than when
he refused General Lee's sword
and paroled his army. The
New TTTork World recently said
some kind, considerate words
about Mr. Davis and his 80th
birthday. Those words touched
the Southern heart and revived
our slumbering hopes of , a re
conciliation. We wish that it
would come, for we are tired
tired of r this perpetual stSite.
What we need is to become ac
quainted. Every Northern man
who comes South and stays
with us awhile makes friends
apd becomes, as it were, one of
us. Why, there is Governor
Bullock who came back under
a cloud and is still a Republi
can, and yet he moves in tbe
best society of Atlanta and is
doing more in our defense by
his admirable letters to the
Northern press than a thousand
Democrats could do. And so
let ns have as much as we can.
We have been very fortunate of
late; we have escaped the
trickery of Blaine and the ma
lignity of Sherman, and are
thankful. Ben Harrison is old
Virginia stock, and it is reason
abljr expected will behave him
self honorably during the can
vass. He ought to.

rings made out of old enemies.
Consider the long-continued,
unwavering devotion of Col
quitt to Pat TFalsh . and how
rudely it was broken. Com
pare the editorials or to-day
with those a few years ago and
see if you can find consistency.
Who are Bacon's friends now
and who are Colquitt's and who
are Brown's nobody knows. All
that the public knows is that
there is a- new deal. Politics
is just as much a science ' as
playing chess and has about as
small a field for the emotions
that give grace and truth to
character. Then what can a
man fall back upon but patriot
ismthat patriotism that be
gins at the fireside, then broad
ens to' his state, then reaches to
his peculiar section, and at the
last stretches wide its arms and
takes the whole nation in their
embrace ?
I don't see any good in the
South abusing Harrison nohow.
The South is solid for Cleveland
and the battle ground is up
North, and the more we abuse
him here the more it will
strengthen him np there. This
chronic abuse, this stereotyped
slander thai; comes 'along, every
four years, is a shame. We
went to war because Lincoln
was elected, and now we say he
was the very best friend the
South had above the line. We
denounced. Grant as a brute and
a drunkard, and yet the great
political leaders of tbe South
praised him alive and mourned
him when dead and threw flow
ers upon his grave. Lamar de
livered a eulogy, on Sumner.
and General Gordon became
Grant's personal friend. They
fall out and fall in worse than
children at play. They run a
drag-nf t through each other's
character, and then make
friends and put the net up in
tbe loft for the next time, and
it is all for loffice. It was the
same way in 1840, when Gen
eral Harrison ran against Van
Buren. Log cabins and hard
cider were the watchwords
then, for the general lived in
he one and lived on the other.
His grandson has no liking for
either, they say, and so we
don't Know yet what will be his
signboard.
The whigs built little lot-
cabins all over the country, and
hauled them about on waeons
and shouted for "Tiorjecanoa
and Tyler, too." I remember
What Se
President
Assembly-
Said When Elected
of The Teachers
how the whig boys of our town
crowed over us when we were
beaten. They could always
beat us at' crowing. , I remem
ber that the Southern Recorder
was their State paper, and ours
was the Federal Union. The
Recorder generally had about a
column of runaway negroes ad
vertised, with the little pictures
attached to each a picture of a
bareheaded, barefooted darky,
on the run, with orie : foot up
and one down, and a stick across
his Bhoulder with a bundle
swinging from the hind end of
it. The "ad" was headed "Ten
Dollars Reward," and described
the negro, and the owner's name
was attached. The Federal
Union had but few runaways to
advertise, for its. readers were
Democrats and dident own very
many, and one day I heard a
whig boy, as he cam from the
postoffice witt his father's pa
per say to a Democratic boy ;
"Just look here at the runaway
niggers. Your old t Dimocrat
paper hain't got bin five or six.
You Dimocrats hain't got no
niggers to run . away There
were feuds and fights and all
sorts of slanders then just like
there are now. Sometimes the
wmgs were on top and some-
1 thanK you for nonor you
have bestowed upon me and I
assume the duties of the office
with a deep sense of its
tremendous resonslbilities.
The gallant snip whlcb you
have called me to command is
bearing a cargo more precious
than merchandise it is
freighted with little children,
whose intellects and conscien
ces are seeking for light. The
Assembly represents the hope
and the life of educational
Droeress in North 'Carolina. It
is for us to quicken public
interest and enlighten public
mind; to ref orn educational
errors and abuses; to animate
with enthusiasm the host of
public teachers and inspire
them with confidence in the
future: to seek for the truth in
all our councils; to discover the
best methods of instruction
and present them to the notice
of teachers throughout the
State; to see that the best
machinery of education is
utilized to the end tnat econ
omy of labor may produce the
greatest results
"But here is a danger to be
avoided. The school house is
not a factory. Little children
cannot be pressed into uniform
size and shape; squeezed
moulded, ponnded into little
packages of educated humanity
tied np an stamped like bags
of tobacco or bales of cotton
There is too much machinery
in the public schools. Individual
growth is of more Importance
than any system.
"It is ior us to redeem our
State from the old and oft
repeated charge of supremacy
in illiteracy. Let us not be
deceived by this charge. It
has become fashionable to be
little and deride the insti
tutions or tbe South, and,thtj
insinuating slogan of "the New
South" has become the watch
word in educational : no less
than manufacturing ranks.
I need not tell this audience
tnat tne "Uid soutn" was
characterized by a gennine lit
erary culture and a pure,
refined taste that might have
been sougnt in vain in com
munities where the standard of
illitereracy" was less alarming.
There is danger at this point.
We cannot surrender the glories
of the South. Let adopt the
most potent instrument
of popular education and at
tach to the "car of progress"
all the modern improvements;
but we must not surrender
those aspirations after literary
culture and refinement, quiet
modest and undemoustrative
those Ideald of refined man
hood and womanhood with free
scope for individual develop
ment which constituted the
Cheif glory of the Southland
gave a cnarm to its social life.
Let ns move forward hopefully
into the future, but animated
by love.reverence for the past."

Rev. George W. Sanderlin, the
Democratic candidate for State
Auditor, was born of ell-to-do
parents in Camden county, North
Carolina, on the i!2d jlay ot Febru
ary, 1843. and is therefore abeut 45
years of age. When five years old
his parents moved to Elizabeth
City, N. C, which place was his
borne up to tbe breaking out ot tne
war. When fourteen years old be
was sent to a preparatory school at
Revnoldson in Gates county, and at
fifteen entered the Freshman class
at Wake 1'orest College where he
took high rank as a scholar. Tbe
war breaking out he, with a few
others in his class, including his
room mate, Thos. T. Law sou, of
Rockingham, (afterwards the
brother-in-law of Gov. bcales), left
and entered the army, he joining
an Iniantry company froih Gates
county of which ne afterwards be
came captain. This company was
attached to the :33d C. Regiment
ot which L. O'B. Branch was
Colonel, G. Moulton Avery, Lieut
Colonel, and Robert F. Iloke, Ma
jor. Upon lirancu s promotion
this Regiment was by courtesy at
tached to his Brigade which was
made np of the 7th. 18th, liSth, 33d
and 37th Regiments, and known as
Branch's (afterwards Lane's) Old
Brigade, A. P. Hill's j Division,
Stonewall Jackson's Corps, Army
of Northern Virginia. With this
old brigade Captain Sanderlin
served until the end of the war. do
ing his duty faithfully and well.
With it he fought in tbe battles of
New Berne (where he was thot
twice), Hanover C. II. Game's Mill,
Cold Harbor, Malvern Hill, and all
of the seven days' battles around
Richmond, Cedar Run, 2d Bull Run
and 2d Manaaas, Ox Hill (or
Chantilly), capture of Harper's
Ferry, Sbarpsbnrg. 1st and 2d
Fredericksburg, the uildernesj,
ChancelIor8ville (where he was
within twenty steps of Stonewall
Jackson when he fell), Gettysburg
(where be bad three companies m
the famous 3d davs charge with
Pickett), and in all the subsequent
battles fought by the Army of
Northern Virginia arouud Rich
mond and Petersburg np to Appo
mattox Court House. He was never
taken prisoner, never in hospital
but one day, never had but one fur
lough (and no fight occurred in his
absence) and the history of the
Army of .Northern v lrginia was
well nigh his history throughout,
He was shot a number ot times
though never seriously wounded,
and entering the army a private
was seven times promoted, twice
on the field of battle at New
iserne ana uettsourg. , While in
the army, though quite young, he
was an army correspondent and
wrote the Gamma (Star) Sigma
letters which gained lot him a
reputation veil nigh equal to tha
of "Personne," the famous war cor
respondent of the Charleston News
and Courier. Surrendering while
lighting in the front lines at Appo.
mattox Court Honse on the 9th cf
April, I860, he received his parole
aud returned to his home at Eliza
beth Cith, N. G. In the following
Fall he went to the Southern Bap
tist Theological Seminary, then lo
cated at Ureenville, S- O., now at
Louisville, KyM where he graduated
in ten 01 the eleven schools of that
famous Institution. Returning to
his native State he was ordained
to the ministry in the College
unapei at vvase Forest Doileee in
the Spring of 1868, Drs. Wingate,
X. U. Pntchard, Rovall, Iluffham
and others taking part in the exer
cises. The following Sunday he
assumed pastoral charge of the
Baptist church at Goldsboro, N. C,
wnere ne remained until 1871
vvnueherehe married Eliza, the
daughter of Council Wooten, Esq.,
01 ienoir county, a citizen and pub
lrc man. well known throughout
the Eastern section of the State
and also in Davidson and Davie
and other counties in the West
where the family refugeed daring
the war. By her he has had six
children, four of whom are now liv
ing.
In 1871 Mr. Sanderlin resigned
his charge at Goldsboro in order to
make the tour of Egypt aud Pale
stine (ana Europe on his retarn)
with his old preceptor, the distin
guished scholar, Dr.. John A.
Broadas, who had preceeded him
and whom he expected to join at
Home, Italy. Missing the only
steamer at New York by which he
coma join ur. uroaaus in time to
make the tour of Egypt; before the
hot weather set in, he came to Bal
t:more and stopped for treatment
of his eyes for myopia' or near
sightedness While here he preach
ed a few times for tbe Franklin
Square Baptist cnurch-Mjne of the
largest and most influential church
es in Baltimore and on bia re
turn to North Carolina received a
unanimous call at a large salary to
tbe pastoral care of that church,
which call he accepted, and re
mained in Baltimore between fire
and six years. His health failing
from overwork he returned to bia
nlanfatinn in WavmA AAnnrv XT f
wbtre he baa been engaged exclus
ively in farming for the past twelve
years. It is as a Farhbb that Mr.
Sanderlin ' has done some of his
best work. In the introduction of
new machinery, new crops, new
methods of cultivation, ete.. etc.,
and, withal, making these known
to his brother farmers 'by tongue
and pen by pa oho addresses and
by written commtnlcattons to ag
ricultural journals and magazines
he has done a work invaluable to
the agricultural interests ot the
State. We present but two in
stances, of many, that will serve as
illustrations of the work he haa
been doing. -
Ten years ago lew, 11 any, sup
posed thit rice conld be raised in
any-way save by irrigation, or
flooding. ' ITr. Sander ho conceived
the idea of subjecting that crop to
the same conditions of cultivation
on high, dry upland as cotton, corn
or any other crop. After -expert
menting one or two years he
achieved a complete success mak
ing in one year on fifteen acres of
land one thousand and ten bushels
of rice for which he received one
thousand and ten dollars. Where
upon be wrote a. series of articles
On Upland Rice Culture for the
Kinston Journal, which were after
wards revised and published In tbe
Goldsboro Messenger, and thence
copied into nearly every newspaper
in the State, and led to the crea
tion of a new money crop for the
farmers of North Carolina. 'Where
as not five . hundred dollars had
previoaslv been realized on upland
rice, the crop come to be planted
extensively and last year realized
more than five hundred thousand
dollars. And all this through the
progressive enterprise of Mr. San
derlin whom the newspapers at the
time designated "The Father of Up
land Rice Culture In North Caro
lina." .Another instance of his
valuable services is to be found In
his introduction of tbe cultivated
grasses, Timothy, Red Top, &c, on
an extensive scale. He has sold in
one season one hundred tons of as
nue timothy ha v, grown in North
Carolina, as ever came from the
Mohawk Valley, and Das demon
strated beyond doubt tha: tbe soils
of North Carolina will . produce the
hay grasses in as fine quality and
large quantity as any other in the
United States. Mr. Sanderlin says
that he finds all the resources of the
broadest and most liberal educa
tion called into play in the pursuits
of agriculture. A graduate in six
different languages, a gentleman of
the broadest and most thorough
culture, he finds it all necessary, or
at least all available, in solving tbe
question ; "How to maae farming
pay." The farmers of tne state,
recognising their obligation to Mr.
Sanderlin and the value of his ter
vices to them, supported his candi
dacy for the Anditorship with
nearlr. if not quite, all the en-
Urosiasm with which they support
ed Capt. S. B. Alexander for Gov-
enor.
It was only two or three months
before the Convention that the
name 01 Mr. Sanderlin was men
tioned in connection with the Ami
torship of the State. His connec
tion with the fanners and farming
interests of the State made the
mention of his name all that was
necessary to secure for him a large
and enthusiastic louowtng.

erlin long and well. There is no
more charming aud accomplished

He is an accurate thinker and is

What is this "nervous trouble"
with which so many seem now to
afflicted! If you will remember a
few years ago the word Malaria
was comparatively ' nnknown.
to-day it as common as any word
in the English language, jet this
word covers only tbe meaning of
another word used by our fore
fathers in times past, 80 it is
with nervous diaeaoes, m they and
Malaria are intended to cover
what our grandfathers called Ril.
liousness, and all are caused by
troubles that arise from a diseased
condition of tbe Liver which In
performing its functions finding it
cannot dispose of tbe bile tbrongb

to pans it off through tbe system

Ur. Earrfasn'i Chinese fiecora.
Senator Harrison voted to ad
mit "skilled" Chinese laborers.
He voted to admit Chinese
"artisans."
He waa paired against the
passage of the twenty-year Re
striction bilL
He voted against the passage
of the bill over President Ar
thur's veto.
He voted to strike out that
part of the ten-year bill which
forbade the naturalization of
Chinamen.
He voted against excluding
Chinese in mining.
He voted to admit all Chi
nese not usually engaged in
manual labor.
He was one of the fifteen
Senator who voted against the
passage of the bill the present
Restriction Act At that time
.there was no check whatever
upon tbe importation of Chi"
nese, and Mr. Harrison did what
he conld to keep any check
from being imposed.
That is the last occasion upon
which the name of the Chicago
candidate can be found record
ed in the voting lists upon any
Chinese bill. Mr. Harrison re
mained in the Senate nearly
five years afterward, but upon
this subject he was dumb, and
apparently deaf and blind.
Whn the amended Restric
tion Act of 1884, the Henley
bill, was passed, the Indiana
Senator was not in his seat and
had neglected to pair.
This is Mr. Harrison's entire
