If there i3 any one thing that
the Democratic party proposes
to wage a relentless warfare up
on more than, another, it is the
detestable 'Trusts' that are sap
ping the vital strength of the
people. The party says these'
'Trusts' are wrong are eche lies
and combinations for the pur
pose of robbing the people.
Every effort is beins: made by
the Democratic party to deprive
them of their po.ver to oppress
and defraud.
Congressman F. M. Simmons
has introduced a bill in the
House; of Representatives to
refund to importers all the duty
paid on cotton bagging import
ed so long as the cotton bagging
trust exists. The bill has been
referred to the Ways and Means
Committee and is very favora
bly regarded.
Slrbuld this bill become a law
the attempt of the few bloated
owners of all the bagging in this
was necessary to .show to the
riotous negroes that 1 they
meant business, and that busi
was to reserve peace and order
and maintain the supremacy of
the civil law.
Only a few weeks ago a
terrible riot among the negroes
occurred on these streets; the
officers were assaulted, and a
yelling, hooting crowd of
infuriated and unreasonable
blacks threatened to rescue two
prisoners from the custody of
the City Marshal.
Now we are led to ask
whither are we drifting?

From a letter to the editor
of the Charlotte Democrat from
Minister Jarvis dated July
31st, we learn he is pleased
with the nomination of Judge
Fowle and thinks he will be
elected. He says ne is so
situated that he cannot be
present during tne campaign
in person, but he is present in
spirit. He hopes that all his
friends will go to work and
make Fowle's majority four
timeswhat his was in 1880. His
letter contain sound wholesome
advics and we extrct the follow

will read and go to work. He
says: Much speaking, ' good
speaking, are valuable factors

good thing, and the more of it
the better; but after all it is the
vote that is put into the ballot
box that elects the candidate
and the campaign which does
not look well to the machin
ery for getting the voters to the
polls and their votes into the
box is not well conducted. It
is therefore all important that
the precinct part of the party
organization be well attended
to,and I will request ypu when

goes to the polls. It is the man

Mr. Nathan. Bass, the candi
date of the Democratic party
for the lloure of Representa
tives, is a man who has in the
past had little to do with the
politics of the county, and, for
that reason, the Advance pro
poses to give Us. readers: a short
sketch of his quirt but useful
lite.
Nathan Bass is a son of Mr.
Elisha Bass, who died shortly
after his son Nathan reached
his maturity. He was raided
on the farm and went to school
after he was tvown. Acquiring I
such knowledge as he wa$ able j
by studious habits duriHsr the
short while he attended school
and by reading and study at
home,he began to teach school,
which vocation he followed for
six years. For the past ten
years he has devoted his atten
tion entirely to farming and a
very successful farraer he has
been. He raises his own sup
plies and follows almost strict
ly the scrptural injunction:
owe no man anything.' Janu
ary 10th, 1878, he was .married
to Miss Pnscilla Daniel, with
whom he lived happily until
the first of last January, when
she died.
Mr, Bass is a man of fine in
tellect and a firm determination
and purpose to do that only
which will redound the inter
est of the people he represents.
His character is above reproach
and his popularity was strongly
attested by the large and flatter
ing vote he received in all the
different townships in the coun
ty at the primary election. He
has many elements of positive
strength and not one of weakness.
That Mr. Bass will be elected
we doubt not. That he will
represent the. best iuteresta of
Wilson county in the halls of
the Legislature every man who
knows him will be positive of.
There is one thing about the
present campaign that is so
clearly patent to every reading,
thinking man, that it would be
a Waste of time and labor to ar
gue it in fact it admits of no
argument and that is that Re
publicans throughout the State
are actively, and, in some in
stances, openly encouraging the
Third Party movement. Have
you noticed that the reception
committees are, for the most
part, Republicans, or were Re
publicans before they pretend
ed to espouse the Third Party
cause? And, Democrats, have
you noticed how their confer
ences are almost wholly with
Republicans, and that their
confreres are of that same de
testable stripe ? We say detes
table because of their princi
ples and practices, and not be
cause we think they are all
scoundrels and villains. Some
few of thtm may be honest
but tneir principles will ruin
and wreck the prosperity of our
country, and tueir practices,
when they were in power in
our State, were corrupting and
most damnable. And have you
noticed, too, the belief of most
of their audiences, whom their
speakers address? They are
composed mainly of Hepubli
cans. Such, at least, is the in
formation we get. When Mr.
Walker spoke at Morganton it
seems that Republican distill
ers, bar-keepers and grocery
men were most active in drum
ming up a crowd to hear him.
I And his audience were mainly
(Republicans. The Morganton
Star has this to say of Mr. Wal
ker's visit to that place :
"We ara truly glad, however,
1.1 A. " r. TIT 1 . . .
tuai mi. vvaiser visited our
place and made his temperance
speech, as some of the Republi
can leaders were fearful that he
would not get a good audience
and they made thomselves act
ive in circulating the appoint
ment and therefore got out
number of men, mostly Repub
licans, who could not have
been induced to attend had it
been simply a temperance lect
ure, a. uumDer oi tnese men
being distillers, grocery keep
ers, and consumers, we hope
they will treasure up the truths
given by Mr. Walker and that
it may be the means of the
abandonment of their ungodly
practice, tneir reformation and
tne beginning of a nhw and
holy life."
That it all very well, but it is
in timed. We can not afford
for any consideration, to permit
tne Kepnoiicans once again to
regain control- of our State eov
ernment. They were tried once
they were weighed in, the
balance and found wantine-and
succeeded in corrupting and de
bauching our public institutions
to an extent never before equal
ed in the annals of any State or
nation. God forbid that they
should ever again assume the
control and have the manage,
ment of the good "Old North
State."

The town of Fayetteville has
been the cvnn uf -t-ninultous and
wild ciitiordt-r for the past few
days which came veiy near end
ing in bloodshed and a war of
races..
Two negroes had been com
mitted-to jail for an assault
with a aeadly weapon upon
a white woman. The 'difficulty
occurred in Rockfish township;
a trial was had, the accused
failing to give bond,, they were
committed and sent to jail in
Fayetteville last Sunday.
Monday night following, the
jail and surrounding premises
were occupied by a mob of
negroes armed with guns and
pistols, led by a colored man,
Tom Broadfoot, who himself
was armad, aud who had sent
word to the negroes to meet
him there with arms. The
cause of all this, or rather the
pretext, for there was no cause,
was said to have been a wild
rumor that the negroes were to
be taken oa of jail and lynched!
No such threat had been mafia
