THE RAILROAD QUESTION.
We give to-day the second article
of Junius on the "So-Called North
Carolina System." It contains a vast
amount : of practical information on
the important subject it discusses,and
is a 'strong argument in favor of a
policy that" will build up and not
destroy the only seaport city of North
Carolina. ' '
THB KIDNAPPING QUESTION.
den: iWoodford, the United States
District; Attorney who was reported
by John F. Mines . as giving ' an ac
count of the; plan to kidnap Mr Til
den and otherwise rob the people of
the right of choice, h'as returned from
his European trip. He has- been in
terviewed concerning Mines's account
in ihe. World. He denies the report i
of vhe conversation in so far as it af
fects others. He does not deny that
he ' apdn Mines had a 'conversation
about the matter,, but he denies that
he had any consultation. with Presi
dent Grant, Secretary Robeson, Sen
ator Conk)iBg,or any member of the
Cabine0as to what should be done at
New York in case MriTilden refused
to abide by the decision of the Elec
toral Commission, -I -never received
any instructions,' advice or sugges
tions from them or any of them as to
such contingency,' nor did I ever have
any conversation or communication
of any kind with Secretary Robeson
in regard to - placing a ; gunboat in
New York harbor.
This looks explicit. , It looks as if
he were innocent of all knowledge of
any plot." But this is misleading no
doubt, and intended to be so.. , He
does not deny that he understood the
game to be played. ; He does not de
ny that he received instructions how
to act. He confines his denial to in-
, . . . .-i .. - t
terviews and instructions from Grant,
his Cabinet, and Conkling. : When he
comes to speak of Gen. Woodford he
is more reticent. , He says: : ,
"I mast adhere, with -regard to. myself,
to the. rule which I have always observed,
a id beg you to excuse. me from any further
interview wiiijuregird to this matter." - y -
It is quite certain an interview took
place, that he and Mines had a long
conversation ind s it " was about the
plan bT preventing Tilden from taking
the oath of office and matters bearing
upon it. ' If he did not say what he
is repprtedrassayjngijt is interesting
to know what' he did" BzyT'Wei' put
more confidence than ever, before in
the general correctness of the inter
view as given by Mrl Mines. , .
, aub norta reporter, after inter
viewing Woodford, ; called upon
M TS S I A T W
Mines, who is at, the lAstor. House:
He read to him the.nbtes'of "the" in
terview with District Attorney Wood
ford. What doWiaines gay!0f the
truth of - his;:statements.'now that
Woodford ;ir back??;Jl hag h0 obl
. jection ' that what - Woodford: gays
' should go before' the country.' He
. would prepare a statement in which
be should give "some cumulative ev
. idence going to show, that the inter
view not denied by Jin -WoodfBr'd
faithfully portrayed tbri plans abdl fo-
tenlioiia of the Grant admiDistfatioii
in relation to the really revolutionary
inauguration of Mr. Hayes as. detailed
by Mr, Woodford to liiiu." He
means . to fully sift the ; matter, and
the country ""will find'- no "cause to
doubt its truthfulness. He said iu
conol usion ; - --v
"Pardon me fur adding that in the course
of a loag journalistic experience iio man
has ever yet implicated me successfully in
a newspaper misatalemeut . What I have
written, is absolutely correct, ' and Mr,
Woodford has done well and wisely not to
attempt to controvert it as between me and
himself." ' ' ' ' 1 '-' -
The Star has for a long time In
sisted as our readers will remember,
that the manufacture of cotton goods
in the South could not only be made
profitable, but that it. could be made
more profitable than in the North.
We have given facts and figures" to
make good this assertion and to jus
tify the faith that is in us. A North
era man who has been in some sec
tions iu the South writes to the Phi-,
adelphia Times on July 16th, as fol
lows: " - 1 " ' - ;
- "During the -past, winter some time a
member of a leading Baltimore firm. said,
they would have to stop spinning cotton
and buy yarn in the South, aa they could
buy cheaper than they could ; spin. And
they were bred to the business and them
selves manage their factories.: -In March
and April last 1 was iu Georgia . and Ala
bama, and then came to tbe conclusion
that the mills there could certainly t spin
yarn and make coarse cloth much cheaper
than those North could. The South has
fine mills, low taxes, buys cotton from the
wagons, bas water power and cheap labor.
The people in Fall River are ia fact in
grinding competition with the darkey, who
works and boards himself for nine dollars
per month." . , ,
: Only yesterday we published the
fact that a new cotton factory at
Natchez, Miss., was paying a divi
dend in these embarrassing times, of
nearly twenty per cent, on capital. ,:
I What will the candidates . for Go
vernor now do that the annual literary
festivities are ended? It has been
proposed to hold educational barbe
cues. : We move that this new mo
tive power be pot in exercise, and
that the nine candidates for Governor
be invited , to " address 1. their fellow
citizens upon . the great subject- of
educating the masses and building up
our high schools and colleges. No
politics to be allowed, and hand-shak
ing to be restricted to the . chil
dren. We ' suggest further, v that
when the barbecues are eaten that
the candidates next try their hand at
a great railroad revival. There' are
some half dozen or more projects on
uauu, auu a vioisot exercise or tvma
may do good in finally raisins the
steam.
According to the Boston Adverti
ser, the leading Republican organ of
New England, the split in the ranks
of the -Maine Stalwarts is owing to
the i unhappy influence of . Senator
Hamlin. " It : says that many young
Republicans have' : bolted their party
and gone into the folds of the Green-,
backers because they could not stand
the Hamlin oligarchy. So all is riot
serene among the Maine Republicans.
The "Happy Family in the frozen
regions even are at sixes and sevens.
But the Advertiser is not without
hope. It says: " " '-
'Mr. Blaine las wisely kept himself aloof
from this squabble within the party, and it
Is believed that if Hamlin : is set aside and
Mr. Blaine goes to the front as the party
manager the ranks can be closed Up, and
the party made as powerful in Maine as it
ever was. Otherwise, the Advertiser admits
that the vote of the State will be too close
this fall to be comfortable." :

The colored Senator :from Missis

'plain of lhe treatment she received
jwhen he was engaged in his political
Icanvasses in his own State. . He said
recently that in 1876, wheo he made
ppeeches in 'many ' places throughout
pe tstate.he was ''always fairly treat
fed," and "never insulted1 in a eiuc;le
town mac ne yisitea.,, we nave seen
dozens of colored men canvasBins in
ortb Carolina and -we never saw
ne insulted or badly treated. As far
ack as 1865' the year of the surren-
er of the southern armies., and un
loathe close .of the last campaign, the
negroes enjoyed the utmost freedom
of speech. ' Indeed, with many of
the speakers,"- freedom has been li
cense, and they 'have' said many
things that were annoying and bitter.
But the North is slow to learn, s

four bushels gathered over eight
bushels. are. left t in, Ibe field. Two-

a; Jarge loss was thus sustained in
