We take the following interview with Dr. Exum from the Salisbury Herald : Dr. Exum, the People's party can didate for Governor, passed through here last night en route for his home at Goldsboro. He spoke at Dallas yesterday, was tiled out, and had given up the canvass for awhile. A Herald reporter interviewed the Doctor at the depot, and he spoke freely, not only on the issues of the day, but of his position as a candi date. H fgig, "yes, tV candidacy ior Governor was forced upon me. I did not want it. I tried to get some one else to take it. I have several times had the offer to become a can didate for Congress but would not accept." "Doctor, you have an appoint ment to speak in Salisbury Wednes day, will you be here?" "No, I will not be here at that tune but Buder will be on hand. He stop ped at Concqrd to-night. There is another appointment for Salisbury. I'll probably be here then. I am glad to'meet you, Mr. Brown. I am told you would not misquote me. I have been misrepresented by every paper in the State except the one published at High Point. It is disposed to treat me lairly. Let me tell you I used to think everything I saw in a Demo cratic paper was true, but now 1 don't believe a word in any paper. They all lie." "I suppose, then, you don't be lieve all you see in the Progressive Farmer?" "No, the Progressive Farmer lies, too." "It is reported, Doctor, that you Viavp criven uo the field and will ?- 1 withdraw from the contest." "That is not true. I have not done so yet.

Are you a Republican or a Demo:rat ?" "1 am neither. I am going ior principle." "You are a Democrat and will give up the field." "No, I am not (evasively), I will continue in the campaign a while, yet." "If vou were to withdraw you I Exum, "and I intend to have a meet j ing of the Third Party Executive i Committee and of the Third Party I candidates, to see what is going to : be done. The Republicans broke laith with me. Now that fellow Grant, of my own county why he is the very one -who solemnly assur ed me that if I would accept the Third Party nominatiou for Governor the Republicans would endorse me and would not put out a ticket, and that even if they did put out a ticket the Easturn Republicans would not recognize it, but would support me. And then that fellow Grant, what has has he done ? Why he is on the Republican ticket for Auditor. "I do not want to see the Demo cratic party defeated, but I am afraid that if I pull out the Third party peo ple will vote t!r' Republic-ail ticket and beat Carr." "When will you have the meeting to decide about you future course?" the Doctor was asked. "Just as soon as I can get the committee and candidates together," he said. It is safe to say the stump in this State has seen the last of Dr. Exum. OUR ELECTION LAW SYSTEMATIC ATTEMPT MADE TO MIS REPRESENT IT.

The Republican party is pledg ed to the enactment of a federa' elec tion law. I have before me, as I write, the bill passed by the last Re publican House on that subject. This bill may be tairly considered as an authoritative expression of the kind and character of law which Republi can success at the next election will inflict upon us. 1 cannot, within the proper scope of such a letter as this, enumerate all its remarkable provis ions. It gives to the judges of the United States Circuit Courts the power of appointing election officers of the State. It gives to the election officers so appointed the power to desieaate an unlimited number of deputy marshals, who may be em ployed for a number of days prior to each election, at $5 per day.

A Republican leader in this county says he will rebut the Democratic Force bill argument by airing what he calls our "North Carolina Payne Election Bill." What is that bill, or law, and what does it propose to do ? Democrat. We hope the Republican leader will try to "rebut the Democratic Force bill argument" by discussing the "North Carolina Payne election bill." k l be in keeping with the policy orpine "Republican party to deal dishonestly with the people, and deceive them. There is no such thing as the "North Carolina Payne election bill." At the session of 1888 Senator Payne, of Robeson county, did introduce an election bill similar to that in South Carolina and Massa chusetts by which the illiterate voters would have been, as we thought, disfranchised. But that bill was de feated by Democrats in a Democratic caucus, and a man must indeed be a mossy back" in ignorance and a genuine "bourbon" who talks now about a bill wfcicn, wnetner goou or bad, the Democratic party destroyed. Ever since the adjournment 01 tne legislature of 1889 there has been a concerted and persistent enort on me part of the Republicans in North Caro lina to mislead the people in regard to the changes made by the last General Assembly in the election law. We charged it upon them at the close of the session of the legis lature that they tried then to make a false impression for partisan purposes, and we now reiterate the charge, because, in the face of the truth, they have continually denounced the changes in the law and falsely de clared that they were enacted to keep Renublicans from voting. Not only so, but in their State convention of 1890 and 1892 every speaker used lurid language in reference to the changes in the Election Law, and the platforms have been made vivid and striking by denunciation of the Election Law, which, m 1892, it de clared "was so formed and so intend ed as to enable corrupt politicians to defeat by fraud and trickery the hon est will of the people," and much more such language in the s: strain. In 1892 simpler language is employed. To such an extent have these misrepresentations gone that there are not a few people who have laws satisfied with the law, Mr. Trull left the House and would not vote against the bill. 2. It is provided that the voting for State and county officers may be kept separate from the voting for members of Congress and Presiden tial electors. There can be no possi ble reasonable objection to this change. If Congress should pass a Force bill this provision would be needed to prevent any Federal inter ference with State elections. 3. The Board of Canvassers are given judicial powers. They exercised such, Jfewer under the old law u the Supreme Court construed the law not to grant judicial powers. This change merely gives in explicit language the powers they have always exercised t .l -1 1 Then thev put wow idc auove arc cApl,a- ug I'm a member good and true; I live up to its teachings and keep the obligations, too.

To put a stop to colonization. 3. To be ready to check-mate the Republican Congress. 4. To provide against a rush at the polls. . 5. To give the Board of Canvas sers power to pass upon returns.

He talked in this manner until the train pulled out. Dr. Exum is a man of age, is portly, has a grey beard on his chin and wears glasses. He speaks openly, freely and refers to himself as being formerly Democrat, with some emphasis. It is clear that he is on the fence as to his position and undecided as to what he will do. ft is further evident that if he had his choice he wouid withdraw from the field. He brands the report that he "would perfer negro rule to the pre cpnt government" as a lie, anc ;f;.natPB that he will call the slander- er to account. T Vi nninion of those who heard the Doctor last night that he will withdraw unless he is goaded on by Marion Butler and his satraps. If it was optional with him he would tender his resignation and quit stump ing the State. From what the Doctor said we would infer that he intends with drawing if he has not already done so, but he would not commit him self. On this point he evades a frank answer. The Charlotte News also says : Dr. Pat Exum, the Third party nominee for Governor, has left his campaign to look after itself and has gone to his home in Goldsboro. He has in all probability made his last speech as Third party candi date for Governor. S. Otho Wilson, n,;i reiriv chairman. mane 1 ill ci -" -t r Representatives to of the members elect the names ot the persons holding such certificates, so that they may participate as mem bers in the organization of the House. It authorizes officers of the United to supervise and control the registration of voters. It authorizes such officers to make a house-to-house canvass, to, ascertain the legality of any regis tered voter. It provides for the pay ment of all these officers out of the federal treasury, and authorizes the employment of them lor as much as eight days before the election. And finally it makes permanent appropria tion of your money for the execution of the law. This enumeration of the provisions of the bill, meager though it is, must make it plain to all men, that if it were enacted into law, the people would lose all voice in the selection or control of the officers who manage and certify the result of their election. A Tudee of the Circuit Court of the United States, who is himself appoint ed by the President and holds nis office for life, appoints the election officers. All these Judges, save two, are Republicans in politics. If elec tion officers, abuse or betray tneir trust, they are not responsible to the reople. The source of their power and authority is the Judge who ap pointed them. If a Republican Judge, to advance the interest of his party, abuses his trust, he would not should this bill become a law be responsible fV.o Tnnlp Our constitution in tended that he should be, and to that end lodged in the people's represen tatives in Coneress the power of im peachment, but this law removes that responsibility of permitting the ap pointee of the Judge to determine who is your duly elected representative. If a partisan Judge appoints partisan election officers, who falsely certify that he whom you have defeated at the polls is your duly elected repre sentative, what remedy have you? The partisan election officers are alone responsible to the partisan Judge, and that partisan Judge can only be im peached bv representatives in Con gress who hold their offices by virtue of a certificate from the partisan elec tion officers. This is a mockery ot responsibility From Speaker Crisp's letter. After the election in November, 1S88. when in Winston, Raleigh, and other places, dozens of negroes voted who had no shadow of right we sug gested that the Election Law ought to be amended so as to require satisfactory proof of a right to vote, and to make it impossible for a voter to cast a ballot at more than one precinct on election day. The abuses of the old law, which requii ed a Registrar to put a man's name on the'registration books upon his oath are well-known. The Legislature of 1889 very pro perly required the elector to furnish "testimony under oath, satisfactory to the Registrar." The other changes are that the Registrar shall be ap in September, instead of '."ui . . - - - 1 ' October, and that the books shall be closed on the second Saturday before the election. This change was made to prevent colonization, which has been largely bracticed by Repub licans in close bounties since the war. Another provision is that if a Judge of Election relhses to serve, the other Judges may ap point any discreet per sonam bis place. The change was marlp nc-ressarv bv Eaves' circular issued just before the election in 1888, advising Republican pon holders not to serve. Under the new law, the poll-holders are ap pointed from both political parties, but if the Republicans decline to serve, Democrats will be appointed. If the Democrats decline to serve Republicans will be appointed. Where is the unfairness ? Another provision is that "upon the request of any elector, the Regis trar shall require the applicant to prove the identity or age and resi dence by such testimony, under oath, as may be satisfactory to the Regis trar." It has been told to the negroes that thev will not be allowed to vote unless thev can prove their place of birth. This law will not operate to prevent any old negro who was born in slavery ' from voting because he has no record of his birth, or any per son who is known to be of age, but people are tired of hundreds of seven (special cor. to the advance,) Sept. 14th 1892.

He also killed twenty one such bills by "pocketing" them. In the Fiftieth Congress he vetoed by message 102 at the first session and twenty-five at the second session, and twenty-six more by the "pocketing" process. Mr. Cleveland's extraording activi ty in this direction is made more mam- fest when we remember that an tne Presidents from Washington to Ar thur inclusive sent in only 109 vetoes all told of bills of which they disapproved.
