WILMINGTON, N. C.i
Tuesday Evening, May 4, 1880.
EVENING EDITION.
THE RBiV PROPOSITION.
We learn that Mr. Best's visit to
Wilmington was in part, if not alto
gether, to propose to construct the
needed link between Salisbury and
Wadesboro. By examining the map
yon will see that by completing this
link there will be pretty direot con
nection between the North Carolina
Railroad and Charleston. At Wades
boro there is a road nearly completed
to Cheraw, S. C. By the proposed
link there; will be also connection
with Wilmington, which is nearer to
Wadesboro than Charleston. The
route from Wilmington by way of
Wadesboro, Salisbury, Statesville,
&c, to Asheville; thence to the great
West, will be much shorter than the
route as it now stands. We under
stand that : Best and those he repre
sents do not propose to build of
themselves this desired link, but to
cooperate with Wilmington. He
proposes if certain parties will sub
scribe so much that the Syndicate he
represents will complete the work.
We have not learned what success
or encouragement he met with. We
have pointed out before in the Stab
the -utility and necessity of a road
from Rockingham to Salisbury, and
we have no doubt that sooner or
later the link will be built, and the
route to the West will be shortened.
Mr. -Best's friends appear to be alto
gether unselfish. A short time ago
they were endeavoring to get control
of the Atlantic road to Morehead,
and the idea injected into thepopular
mind was 5. that a continuous line
from the great West to the sea was
contemplated, where a line of ships
would be at hand to bear away the
produce and briDg back the needed
supplies. Morehead was to be spe
cially favored. The idea wa"s plea
sant. Then next Charleston comes
under consideration, and lines of
communication are to be opened up
for the benefit of the most important
city in the State south of us. At last
Wilmington, lying between Charles
ton and Morehead, is thought of, and
an important railroad connection is
planned that ' would' eventuate fin
benefit, no doubt, if ever com
pleted. We like this open-handed
generosity, j There is nothing small
in such broad, comprehensive plans.
"No pent iip TJtica comtractsn." the
"powers" ofj the Syhaicatebut tyro
States constitute their field, and three
ports make up the objective points in
their grand railroad enterprise. The
Syndicate is evidently a wide-awake
concern. 'Itj is : aharp. ; When they
get the . Asheville iand ; Paint Rook
route completed,-(op sane man ex
pects that a jfootT.of ; the Ducktown
road wUl be b'ttUt Jby' the Syndicate
under the bill of Vsale), they know
-that it wUl oe the sole thoroucrhfara
and onUfet"rthe,'Westif and : South
west going"! from theseacoast, and
the only outlet for, the1 products of
the West' to the AAtlantio- seaboard
and so it will be to their, ,' interests to
have the good will, cooperation and
patronage' of-' the -Midland, tNorth"
Carolinaj the Richmond & Danville,
the new road from' ;IItts"burg,
the road leading to Charleston from
Asheville, the Carolina Central; and
the connecting links, that - may be
hereaftet co6s.truotedr The Syndi
cate wilt use wisely a dragnet and
they will catch fishes of all kinds and
sizes.
1
-We d6 not'in the least blame them
for this Impartial sort of policy.. "It;
is a little bitPamusing' hen we. see
the ideajthrown out. that the Syndi-!
cate will only cooperate or control-
one Unel They will get, help and mo
ney from all. Tney have bought
great property for a song, and now
they mean, like sharpy calculating,
scheming business men, to make the
most of it. We hope the Rocking
ham anj Wadesboro link will be built
and alsofthe short line from, Char
lotte to! Hickory. With these two
breakB filled Wilmington could not
fail to be benefited.- Mr. Best will
hardly be able to get Wilmington in
terested in the line from Salisbury
to Wadesboro. If he would favor a
road to Rockingham our people
might listen-to "the charmer."
FAST" HI A It. FACILITIES.
The papers reqently have referred
to the necessity of having a quicker
time table for the great through lines
from the North to the South. The
Charleston News anil Courier of last
week had something; to say about the
matter. All of the Atlantic coast
cities ate interested in this move-.
2 I.
ment, hich might prove of real
importance to them. Why should
not the! South have the best and
quickest mail facilities ? The North
and West have theirs; why should
not the South be fajvored equally?
If time is money we need these fast
mails more than other sections, and
why ? j '
The commerce of the Atlantic
coast towns embraces about one
third of the cotton crop, all of the
naval stores crop and Southern
pine lamber. The bare statement
of the magnitude of the traffic in
these leading articles shows that we
ought to have the best mail facilities
mail facilities equal to East or
West, orUo any section. The South
should imitate the policy of tho people
of other sections. The North and West
unite and demand the needed facili
ties, and they get them. The South
should do; likewise. Unity of action
and persistency in its demands would
result in success. All the mail facili
ties required to place the South on
an equal footing with other sections
would be granted. But it need not
be supposed that this quicker line will
be granted- that the faster mail fa
cilities will be obtained without
hearty and; earnest cooperation. If
the South dpes not look after its own
interests others will be certain not to
do it for it. 3
Another good, telling speech has
been made oa the West Point busi-
s
ness. Senator Hereford, of West
Virginia, according to the Washing
ton letter of the Richmond Dispatch,
made a decided hit on social equality
among the cadets. He was speaking
qn Allison's proposed amendment to
compel the President to appoint two
colored cadets from the country at
large. Mr. Hereford is reported thus:
"He said that the young men from New
England at Weal J?oint, tbe tons of Repub
licans and appointed by Republicans,refuse
to associate with Inegro cadets, sod in so
doing but speak tbe sentiment, of tbe pa
rents who reared them. A Senator bad said
daring tbe debate that be wanted to afford
companionship fof young Wbittaker; but
you cannot force social-' equality, and it is
nonsense to attempt it; for Senators them
selves do not appreciate it. -Tbere is not a
Republican Senator,' said Senator Here
ford, ' who would permit bis dsn gter to marry
atoloredmanf nd:biareasoais the same as
that which actuate the white cadet from
Massachusetts In refusing to associate with
colored cadets. II Senators want social
equality at West Point let thern, practice it
themselves in their ewn families, and push"
it to tts logical result, tie was for giving
negroes-all their rigbts, but social equality;
was another thins: Uodvoa eari no more
bring it about by 4eislatiuathao you can
change tbe spots of the leopard.' 'The ore--
judices are implanted in us,' said he, fby
me creator or we universe, ana they can.
not be eradicated by enactments.' "
We find the Grant - papers parade
figures to show hiaf strength flhat ; do
not tally with those of the anti-Grant
papers. In the month of April about

compose the Chicago IConvention

-A History of Nacogdoches county, Texas,
has been printed in book form. Exchange .
Every county In North Carolina
should cause to be prepared an accu
rate, thorough, history and then pub
lish it. One county in the State,
Granville, has a complete history in
manuscript, but its money gave out
before the history was published.
The result will be, that fifty years
hence, if the manuscript should be
lost or destroyed, important records
will be gone forever. We -would be
glad to know that some qualified pen
was engaged in preparing a history
for each county. New Hanover
ought to attend to this matter.
It begins to look as if the West
Point mystery might be explained.
After bringing great censure upon
the institution and subjecting the
cadets to grave suspicion and many
annoyances, the probability uow is
that the negro Whittaker is the
author of his own injuries. This
was the first theory adopted a the
ory that tbe Northern press of both
Darties scouted and denounced. The
writing of the mysterious note cor
responds with the writing of certain
sorapa in the possession of the two
ezDerts known to be Whittaker's
handwriting.
The Chicago Inter' Ocean, ablest
Grant organ, claims that thus far its
chief has secured 284 delegates. It
say 8:
"Illinois, with ber 42 votes, will swell
this number to 326; Tennessee holds her
Convention on tbe 5th of May, and ber 24
votes are conceded to Grant. This makes
350, only 29 less than a majority, and to
get this lnsigmocant number jre nave sun
left Alabama, from which Bute the Blaine
table concedes 14 for Grant; Mississippi,
from which the same table concedes 7; and
Louisiana, from which tbe same table con
cedes 8, exactly tbe number required to
nominate, while there still remains Wis consin,
Nebraska. Florida, California, New
Jersey. Ohio. Vermont, west Virginia,
and other Stales, a margin certainly wide
enough to cover any defection or mistake.
As we statsd the other day, the nomination
of (Jrant is assured." .
The Baltimore Gazette has been
compelled to advance its 'yearly sub

These laws haver or 'several years patt

On the ether nattdit baa:been maintained

by tbe Constitution. . Under these circum
stances, to attempt- in Ah appropriation bill.

an nex a conatliuniu toe passagef needed

deprive -the Executive Of that equal and in

The" obiectkid to the bill, therefore, to
which I re8peclf oily Ack . your attention, is
tnat tl gives maiKea and deliberate sane
lion, attended by no circumstances pressing
necessity, to the questionable, aod, as I am
clearly of the Opinion, the dangerous prac
tice of tacking upon appropriation bills
general and ' permanent legislation. This
practice opens wide the door to hasty, in
considerate and sinister legislation. It invites
attacks upon the independence and consti
tutional powers of the Executive by pro
viding an easy ana effective way of con
straining the .Executive discretion. Al
though .of late this practice has been re
sorted to by all : political parties, when
clothed with power, it did not prevail until
torty years alter the adoption of the consti
tutionand it is confidently believed that it
is condemned by .the enlightened judgment
of the country. 'States which have adopted
new constitutions during the last quarter of
a century have generally provided remedies
for the evil; many of them have enacted
that no law shall contain more than one
subject which shall be plainly expensed in
its title. Tbe constitutions of more than
half of the States contain substantially this
provision, or some other or like intent and
meaning. The public welfare will be pro
moted in many ways by a return to tbe
early practice of the government and to tbe
true rule of legislation, which is, that every
measure snouia stana upon its own merits.
I am firmly convinced that tbe appropri
ation oiiis pognt not to contain any legisla
tion not relevant to the application or ex
penditure of money thereby appropriated.
ana mat oy a strict aanerence to that prin
ciple an important and much needed re
form will be accomplished. Placing my
objection to the bill on this feature of its
frame, 1 forbear any comment uoon the
important general and permanent legisla
tion which it contains as a matter for epe-
cine ana inaepenuent consideration.

instructed to take into consideration the
utterances and addresses of Mayor Kai-
locn, and- report the proper action to be
taken by the Board, filed a long report re
viewing the history of the labor agitation
and the part borne in it by Kallocb, finding
that he has encouraged the lawless and. dis
contented element, advised them to parade
tne streets, and endeavored to keep them in
such disposition and temperament as to
commit outbreaks whenever it should suit
his purposes; that he has impeached the
honesty of tbe whole community, accused
various branches of the city.' government
of corruption and dereliction of duty, and
tinder pretense of counselling the mob
against violence, insidiously advised them
to bo in readiness for bloodshed and the
overthrow of the authorities. They recom
mend that prompt action betaken to vindi
cate the fair Tame of the municipality . by
judicial inquiry into Kalloch'a case.
A motion to adopt the report was put

a viva voce vote it was carried .
Tbe roll was then called, resulting in a
unanimous vote for its adoption.
A resolution was then adopted author
izing the Financial Committee to cause ju
