They Speak to a large
Crowd of Democrats.
Judge I'owlo Enthus
es the People
Wonderfully.
MR. DAVIDSON TALKS GOOD DEMO
CKATIC DOCTRINE FORCIBLY
AND IN AN INTEREST
ING MAMEK. ' :
GOOD WORK DONE FOR
DEMOCRACY. :
As announced in- last weeks
AnvAsrK.Im1re Daniel G.Fowle
nd Attorney General T. F.
SHavM-ion arrived at Wilson
froru Iliileiif'i on the short
cut oV Friday." morning last
They wVe met at the depot by
a baud olNmusic and escorted to
the iSrita'X House. At 12.30
o'clock theyVscended the newly
erected plattrm on the Court
House green, the cheerful sound
of music-stirring the enthusi
asm of the people who were as
sembled by the hundreds.
r'ol. J. 1. Stickney, in a few
well chosen words, introduced
North Caroliaus' next Governor,
"Daniel G. Fowle.
Judge Fowle begun by stat
ing that he. proposed to make
a bu.sinerts speech and he there
upon proceeded to a plain and
simple discussion of the origin
of the two great policical par
ties. The Democratic party is
the child Of the Revolution--
was founded and preservea by
Jefferson, Madison, Tilden and
such patriots.
ihe KepuDlican i-arty was
the child of war rics fouuda-
tion.waa1 laid in tli 3 slogan of
the Eepubllcans: "The Consti
tution of the U. S. is a league
Wltfy hell and a covenant
witU the devil." , No party can'
rise'aoove its origin ana these
two parties can only rise to the
heighth from which they came
' . THE TARIFF
Next received the attention
of our eloquent and forcible
can'didale. He said ' that the
worst slandered man in all this,
country was Henry Clay when
hewas held up as the father of
the "infamous" protective tar
iff. Judge Fowle said he did
call the protective tariff, that
the people are now burdened
with, ini'ainmi, because it im
poses such unjust burdens upon
those least able to bear dhem.
He grew eloquent in depicting
the infamy of a tax that robs
the many for the benefit of the
few.. Judge Fowle showed li-ow
the tariff bore more heavily on
the fanner than upon any other
clas3 uf our citizens. He said
wherever the farmer hoed three
rows of corn he hoed one row
for the rich monopolist J when
. ever he picked out three bales
of cotton one was for the main
tenance of this same protective
tariff. He showed that the val
ue of the farms increased 103
per cent., under the Iot tariff of
. the Democratic party, whereas
' their value has increased -only
J per cent, miner tlie present
uepublican tariif.- He said he
asked Col." I)ockery how it
would help the people to con
tinue the present tariff and he
replied that it built-up manu
factories. -
UKLriN; jim.
The illustration.- of '-Judge
Fowle as to the practical work
ings of the tariff makes it sfo
clear that a ."wayfaring man,
thouRh a fool need not err."
The illustration is as follows :
the old man called 'all his boys
together and said to them, you
- are all started in life except Jim
One is a farmer, another a law
yer, another a doctor, another a
ehoe-maker, but Jim is the
youngest and we must help him.
Let us all pay our part and pay
, Jim's expenses until he trets to
making something. They all
agree to do so and. Jim begins a
manufacturing business. After'
awhile Jim makes so much
money that he is worth as much
as the old man and all the other
hoys. The old man then says
''look here, boys, suppose we
let Jim scuffle for himself now
' and take care of himself as we
have to uo." Jim says: "No,
sir ! I'm an infant, industry and
need your help still, notwith
atandiug. the fact' .that I am
worth much aB all of yon are.''
eiuuL-rawc party Bays Jim
ought to be able to take care of
himself without taking a part
of what Lis poorer brothers
make. M. he Republican party
fays we must continue to help
Jim.
TO K SURPLUS.
The immense surplus in the
Treasury next engaged the at
tention of our furure Governor.
The surplus in the Treasury,-he
said, would require 450,000 two
horse wagons to haul it , away
and yet the Republicans refused
to reduce the tariff and let the
xnoney remain in the pockets
of the people. The people of
Wilson County pay every year,
by means of this infamous tar.
iff, about 67,000 two wagon
loads of silver. The ylan of
the Republicans to reduce-this
surplus and return the money
to thfl commerce of the country-
is to pay the "bond holders a
premium for the prlvilege of
paying the in. .1,.
lie read from the proceedings
of Congress where Wise charged
tne Republicans witn nypoensy
when they said they wanted
the Iilair bill nassed and not a
Republican dared deny it.
LAWYEK DOCKK&Y.
Judge Fowle said that he
charged Col. Dockery with hav
ing voted for a negro lawyer
Harvey Quick--against an hon
est farmer, Jno. W. Sneed, and
he admitted it. Dockery oboect-
ed not to lawyers, but to white
lawyers. Dockery studied 'law
himself. " I
Alliance dockery.
The attempt of Dockery to
pose asva member of- the Farm
ers Alliance w as referred to and
commented on in Judge Fowle'a
most vigorous style. He show
ed that the Republican platform
upou which Col. Dockery stood
was antagonistic to the demands
of the Alfiance. The Republi
can platform is pronounced in
favor .of "protection." while
the Farmers' Alliance demands
a reduction of the present high
and burdensome tariff. The fol

HON. "W". H. EITCHEN

to "consist i in such a of the falsehoods told by uock-
ery & Co. He denounces Dock
erv and Devereaux as liars,
slanders, cowards and detain
ers of other mens character,
and says they make charges
knowing them to be utterly
false. He says they are a dis
grace come to the Republican
party. Dockery's claim that be
is a farmer Is dissected and the
demogogery of it all held up to
plain view. He read Docksry's
record of 1875 and it makes
him mad as a hornet but he
does uot 'open his mouth. Mr,
Kitchen's arraignment of these
slanders and liars is so truthf u
that it hurts and stings. Dock
ery is kept on the ragged edge
anxiety and is badly rattled and
completely demoralized. His
only stock in trade in his slan
der arid false charges and Mr.
Kitchen thoroughly answers
and does away with all. Mr.
Kitchen is applauded to the
echo. He is making it red-hot
for Dockery & Co. If he keeps
on he will melt them up and
sell them for old brass.
Assembly convened at Raleigh
August 15th, 18S8, tvas read :
Whereas, As members of this

liace. 'j
Judge Fowle said if Dockery
was a good member of the Al
liance he would vote for Grover
Cleveland and Daniel G. Fowle.
:' XOjRTH CAF.OLIXA POEITICS.
The good that has been done
by the i Democratic party in
North Carolina was next briefly
reviewed. He srjoke as only
Judge Fqwle can ' speak of the
feeling that every man has con
cerning personal freedom. He
showed how the l.st citizens of
the State were deprived of their
liberty cast into jail and treat
ed -aft criminals-Uuder Radical
rule in North Carolina, He de
nounced in scathing terms the
"Shoffner bill," kinder which
the Constitution' was violated
ana the writ, of hkbeas corpus
was suspended. The fact that
George. W. -Stanton voted for
the bill was alluded to. The
Holden-Kirk war! in which
Col. Dockery was commissioned
-was referred to
effect. .
- In concluding
appealed to the; Democrats to
stand by their principles, in
words that stirredj the patriot
ism of every-one present..
His speech was a powerful
. one-full of point and fcrce and
much was the good accomplish
ed. : - ' - -,
Mr. Davidson.
Col. Stickneynet introduced
Mr. Davidson, Attorney General
of the State, and candidate for
re-election. He began his speech
by saying that this is a cam
paign of ideas the' people are
being educated. Unless North
Carolina goes Democratic this
lime Grover Cleveland will not
be President of Sthis country.
Put of the 123,000 votes cast for
the Republican ticket last time
11)7,000 were cast bv negroes,
who were described by Judge
Russell as "savages, who were
no more capable of self govern
ment than their brethren in the
jungles of Africa."
The special tax bonds were
shown up in all their iniquity
and the dangar that threaten
When Dockery gave np the
joint discussion and made it
impossible for Fowle to louow
him by publishing a list of ap
pointments in the west, where
Fowle had already been, he
thought he would have an open
field and tell all the lies and
slander all the women he
choose without any to say him
nay. But he- has been sadly
mistaken. Chairmaiij Whit
aker published appointments
for Hon. W. H. Kitchen to speak
at the same time and place as
Dockery & Co., and from that
time Col. Dockery has been in
trouble. The Democratic Exe-
cutive Committee ot every
place he visits demands that he
divided time with Kitchen.
Herefuses. Then Kitchen asks
for a division, Dockery again
refuses, sayinghe would suffer
his right arm to be cut off be
fore he would consent to a div
ision of time with Kitctten.
But after Dockery & Co. finish
their speaking Kitchen mounts
the stand" and gives them
"shebl."
The readers of the Advance
will remember what Dockery
and Devereaux said in Wilson.
Well they are the same politi
cal falcihers and mean and un
mitigated demogogues now a3
they were then. Dockery will
say nothing against Fowle. But
his' fice-dog, Tommie Devereaux
charges- him with having re
ceived a bribe. He charges
fraud and corruption upon Mer-
oimon and Ransom none oi
which can be proven. He is a
vicious, foul-mouthered slan
derer. But novr that Kitchen replies
to them they are a worried and
scared set of politicians. Our
readers know something of
Kitchens speeches. He has
been described as a "gulley
washer and trash lifter." lie
is bold and fearless. He is tre
mendous in his defense of

The Advance takes peculiar
pleasure in presenting to its rjead
era this week a picture of the Hon.
F. M. Simmons, of New Berae, who
so ablv represents this district in
Congress. For the hrst time in i
many years the district is represenj
ted by a man who has the intelli
gence, the honesty an 3 the ability
o be ot service to our people, witn
the single exception of lion. W. H.
Kitchen the district has beeu rep
resented by eithe1- negroes or
"white men with negroes princi
ples.'' Wilson had the honor
to uave the convention that Dom
inated Mr. Simmons two jears ago,
and the Advance was one of the
first newspapers in the State to ad
vocate his nomination.
The negroes met at Kinston
shortly before the Democratic con
vention was held and put out two
negroes, James E. O'Hara and Is
rael B. Abbott, each claiming to be
the ' regular nominee."
,Mr. Simmons organized the dis
trict as it had never ueen organ
ized he secured the earnest and
hearty co-operation of almost every
Democrat in tne district and ne la !
bored with a zeal unsurpassed by
any man in the State. On the night
of the election great was the joy
that broke from Democratic hearts
when the news was sent abroad
that-F. M. Simmens was elected
and that the color or the '-black
district" had been changed.
Mr. Simmons has been ia Con
gress only one term and we venture
nothing when we say that North
Carolina has uot a more faithful,
earnest, patriotic rrpresentative in
the National House of Representa
tives. He-has devoted bis every
energy to 'working to better the
condition of the people that he was
elected represent. He has intro
duced more bills calculated to help
the people of this district, and se
cured more consideration for our
people than any reyresentative we
have ever had.
When the rich monopolists of the
North combined to oppress the far
mers of the South by means of the
Cotton Bagging Trust Mr. F. M.
Simmons was the man to introduce
a bill in Congress which if passed
would make the organization and
maintenance of such a trust impos
sible, lie it was who stood up for
the interests of the farmer against
the greed of the protected monopo
list. The protected monopolists of
the North see that he is a true
friend to the cause of the farnrer
and they immediately begin to pour
out their money to accomplish his
defeat. Mebane. who claimed to
be the regular Republican nominee,
is "persuaded" with piotectioo
gold to step down and out aud let
Cheatham be the only candidate
against Mr. Simmons.
The Advance knows Mr. Sim
mons to be a man of force a man
calculated to accomplish much good
lor his constituents. He is an able
exponent and advocate ot a gener
ous reduction of the present high
tariff. He voted for and spoke in
advocacy of the passage of the
Mills bill. If reelected he will
continue his fight for relief against
the unjust and unequal burdens of
the present high tariff.
Notwithstanding the use of pro
tection gold notwithstanding the
attempt of those who have become
wealthy by means of the protective
tariff to defeat him, the people of
this District propose returning Mr,
Simmons to Congress. We appeal
to 'every man who believes in
cheaper necessaries of life to every
man who desires to be represented
in Congress by a man of brains and
influence to cast his ballot on the
6th day of November for F M Sim
mous Let's all go to work with a deter
mination to secure his election
There ia no time to lose go to
work today It rests upon the people
who want him elected to accomplish
that end or not . If we work we will
be successful otherwise we will
not.
John Nichols, the member of
Congress from the Fourth Dis
trict, is out on the stump ask
ing an endorsement of his
course by re-election. Now
that he is before the people it
is not only proper, but is a duty
devolving upon an honest and
faithful editor to eive the
people a review of his bourse
in Congress, and to call atten
tion to his character as a man.
Mr. Nichols asks for re
election. What are his claims?
Is he a statesment? If so, to
what act does he point to
establish it? Has he done any
thing to advance the interests,
or secure the betterment of the
condition of the workingmen?
What act of his does he cite as
in fulfillment of the promises
he made inl88G? ,
In Congress the two most
notable of his acts were: first,
his vote against the Mills bill,
which bill abolished all tax on
tobacco, lessened the rigors of
the collection of the internal
revenuu tax, and made saU,
woolen goods, sugar and inauy
other necessaries of life cheaper
to the consumer; and, second,
his attempt, along with other
Republican member, to secure
the consideration of certain
pension bills, which would add
250,000,000, to the burdens of
he people to be paid in pen
eions to Federal soldiers.
Does he expeel to receive
support because he appointed
his own son to the cadetship at
West Point, after having prom
ised Mr. VanNooppen, "I will
GIVE DUE KOT1CE AND LET A LL
YOUNG MEN 'HAVE AX .LQUAL
chance?" North Carolinians
have not been accustomed to
send a man to Congress for such
deception and such abuse of
power. ,
Or is it because he defrauded
tne orate ny systematic pecu
lations to the amount of 1242.43
when he was principal of the
Institution of the Deaf, Dumb
and Blind? In other States such
conduct hasj been rewarded by
a cell in the penitentiary.
Or, it may be that he bases
his claims for support and
confidence upon the fact that
he defrauded Mr. Holt, a deaf
and dumb man out of a sum of
many (200 we believe, ) and
never paid it until, according to
Mrs. .Holt, "the Chronicle
COMPELLED HIM TO DO IT
BY PUBLISHING IT."
The contest for Congress this
year is a contest in which every
nonest man, wlo Deneves in
having honest man in office
must forget party and stand to
gether. John Nichols is much
a man tnat no voter who knows
his character can support him
wiinout endorsing uis' pecu
lations and wromr-doing. Two
years ago Nichols deceived
some honest white men in the
Fourth District and they voted
for him. They were ignorant
of his real character and they
believed in the promises he
made. Many of them now know
the character of the man and
they will repudiate him in
iNovemDer. xney nave seen
that all his promises were made
to catch votes, but not for
fulfillment. Il has betrayed
the workingmen of the district
the men who gave him their
support two years ago and
they will register their condem
nation at the ballot box on the
sixth of November. State

How Thev Operate and Thy They
Hurt Wago-Earnc-rs.
Trusts are combinations
made by producers or manufac
turers for the purposes of
advancing the prices of their
product.
The principal wav in which
prices are advanced is by
limiting tho quantity of the
product.
To limit the quantity of the
product ia to throw workingmen
put or employment.
Under a wise system of
taxation . our manufactures
would have free raw materials
and this would diminish the
cost of their products, so they
could export their surplus in
stead of running their factories
on snort time or shutting them
up altogether for large portions
or tne year.
The syotein of trusts there
fore is designed to protect
capital at the expense of,labor,
ILis great country cannot
consume all that It produces
either of agricultural products
or of manufactures.
It cannot export its surplus
profitably because the high
tariff makes raw materials dear,
Cheapen faw materials and
both capita and labor will be
profitably employed.

! CCJNTY ITdCS,
Mr. Chandler, the Republican
Mogul of New Hampshire, has
introduced a bill "authorizing
the Secretary of the Treasury to
pay out of the district tax fund
S-jQ for passage and sixty days
rations to the United States
and Congo Steamship Company
for every adult free negro who
may emigrate to any free State
in Africa." If be read of the
many fights and r.-wa at the
negro churches and camp meet
ings that we read about hap
pening iu every section of the
State we do not wonder that he
wants to bend them away. Ev
ery body else does. The Char
lotte Democrat says if he would
send the bad ones off and let
the decent ones stay here it
would do veiy well. That suits
us, for under such provision
practically all of them would
have to leave. 1 here is only one
draw back to this scheme; would
that it were otherwise so they
might go. If every vessel
available to the United States
were put into snrvice they
could not transport them away
as fat as the world increases in
population. What we mean ia
this : The birth Tate is so great
that the death rate and the
number that the United State?
could send off would not equal
it, that is a serious drawback
It ia almost , impossible, it
seems, to get them out of this
country. They are here, ad
here to stay it would seem. The
problem is not to be settled as
Mr. Chandler would provide
Now let some other friend of
the negroes come to the fron
with a means of ridding the
country on the "brothers in
black." When all other means
fail some statesman will pro
pose that we white people einl
