THE SfTBBBlfATOBIAI CANVASS
The Stab does not publish often
long articles of any kind. A large
newspaper experience has taught us
that where one long communication
or editorial is read by one person,
the short articles are read by a dozen.
It is neccessary to- discuss topics,
and that requires time and space, but
the best, way is to boil them down if
you have the ttm. We rarely pub
lish communications or selected ar
ticles as much as a column long.
Now and then it is necessary to do
so, und then we yield to the pressure.
We publish to-day some interesting
extracts from the abstract of Gov.
Jarvis'a speectjmade at Shelby. It
is a good practical ' effort. The parts
selected to-day will be found val
uable. They will be good reading
tor tax-payers.
Gov. Jar vis makes the very kind
of speech we ; supposed he would
make, if we may judge from the va
rious reports we have read. He has
a well-balanced mind, without having
any preeminent quality save organiz
ing ability, fie makes a clear state
ment of facts, and upon that rests
his case. If it should be determined
that a joint canvass is to be had, we
have no sort of fears as to the ability
of our standard-bearer to more than
meet Judge Buxton. We say this
circumspectly af terhaving heard both
several times in deliberative bodies.
We shall give other extracts from
Gov. Jarvis and other speakers from
time to time. The Stab will essay
to present to its readers sucn cam
paign matter as shall keep them well
posted both as to the issues at stake
and the progress of the fight. Read
what Gov. Jarvis says.
POLITICAL AGNOSTICISSI.
When a religious paper, mneteen-
twentiethTof whese readers are Dem-
ocrats, becomes? so goody-goody that I
it can see no difference in parties and I
none-whatever in candidates, what is
to become of it ? Is it a fact that Nero
was as goed an Emperor as Pius An
toninus, or that. Mary was as Just and
humane a Qaeeri-as Victoria"? We
merely inquire. That appears to be
the drift fust now. It is all nonsense
to in form yourselves about the impor
tant questions of Government. Go
vernment willdovvery well without
your inquiries of aid. It is all non
sense to prefer a man of stainless
escutcheon to man of bad repute or
questionable morals. Does not God
rule ? Has he nojal ways, controlled
tbe destinies of nations? What can
you do about it 7 ' Fret not your soul.
Sleeb on, all will come out right It
was bq beforjvou, were born; it will I
be so after you are dead. So let the
Government jnaabine run: ia its' old
grooves. 7 All is welL The charges
of corruption, of bad faith, of viola
tions of both the spirit and letter of
the Constitution, of peculations and
malfeasance in office, are nothing but
to deceive tbe unwary and ignorant.

WHIT UABFIELU WILL HOT DO.
Garfield is piens according to
Judge Black. Here is what he swore
toon January 14, 1873:
"I never owned, received, or agreed to
receive any stock of the Credit Mobilier or
of the Union Pacific Railroad, nor any
dividends or profits amine from either of
them."
The Committee of the United
States House of Representatives, of
which Judge Poland, of Vermont, a
Stalwart of Stalwarts, was the chair
man, made a careful examination of
the Credit Mobilier scandal, and on
February 18, 1873, thirty-four days
after the pious Garfield ' had taken
voluntarily the above oath, they re
ported as follows:
"The facta in regard to Mr. Garfield, as
found by the committee, are that he agreed
with Mr. .Ames to taxe ten snares or uredit
Mobilier stock, but did not pay for the
same. Mr. Ames reeeivea tne eigcry per
cent, dividend in bonds and sold them for
ninety-seven per cent, and also received
the sixty per cent cash dividend, which,
together with the price of the stock and
interest, left a balance of $320. This sum
was paid over to Mr. Garfield by a check on
tne) aergeant-at-Arms, and Mr. Garfield then
understood this sum was the balance of
dividends after paying for the stock.".
We submit respectfully that it
cannot be charged that in copying
Garfield's voluntary oath and the re
port of a committee,, a majority of
wnom were Kepublicans, we are
mud-slinging, is Garjbeld a proper
person to make President of the
United States?
What say all truth-lovers and be
lievers in official and personal in teg
rity ? Can any honest Northern In
dependent stomach such a record?
The more you examine carefully into
Garfield's record the more unclean it
appears. ixok at it. ah good, true
men should object 16 Garfield.
First, because ot his false swearing
and corruption in the Credit Mobilier
swindle.
Second, because he received $5,000
t. ... TX T" I
whilst a member of the House of Rep
resentatives, from the DeGolyer Pav
ing Company, and gave no service in
return, unless he took it as a bribe for
Jbis vote.
Third, he spoke one way and voted I
another way in the matter of the Lou
isiana and Florida election returns in
1876.
Fourth, he was one of the infa
mous 8.
Fifth, because in 1867 he voted to
confer arbitrary powers upon certain
Military Governors in the South to
try Southern citizens by military
commission or court martial, and to
sentence them to death without trial
hy jury, and without any possible I
chance of appeal or benefit from the
writ of habeas corpus. Garfield did
this. He is surely unfit to be the
ruler over any free people.
Dixit), ne declared in a speecn in
Congress that he was in favor ot dis
franchising forever every Southern
man who, participated in any way in
"the rebellion."
Seventh, be declaredmost earnestly
that he oonld never give the hand of
friendship to any man. who fought in
the war or sympathized with "the
rebellion" unless he confessed himself
a traitor.

j Ra!eigh Observer's Report-J
It were better that there were two
parties in the country, because one
would watch the other, and to reach
the acme of success that -party would
find favor in the eyes of the people I
which best administered the govern
ment, because the best men of both
parties would bear watching. The
closer people watoh their officials, of
whatever name or party, the better
would the laws be administered and
the more secure wonld be their rights
under the government. He had been
the Governor of the State since the
15th of February, 1879, and during
that time he had perhaps made mis
takes, but, God bearing him witness,
he had discharged his high and re
sponsible duties in the interest of the
people, and in their interest alone.
lhe Democratic and liepubhcan
parties, both in tbe State and nation,
were on trial, and the verdict was to
be rendered next November. Ques
tions of State and national policy had
to be met by both,, and the people of
the country were the jury which was
to try the case.
Contrasting the two parties, he
asked, is not that party most entitled
to publio favor which best adminis
tered the government? Ten years
ago the Republican party in North
Carolina had filled nearly all the of
fices in the State, from township offi
cials to the Governor of tne State.
Ten . years ago he had stood in , the

out of the hands' of the Republicans
and place them, in the hands of the

plished through the people, and the
Democratic party had administered
wisely and well. Taxes were less
than half what they were when the
Republicans were in power. During

under tne Democratic party for ten I

that party which attacks the validity

should be denounced as the supple

Republican party disfranchised 40,

authority of law, enfranchised the

been to black boots.

The Republicans are already
assailing the veterans who are declar
ing for Hancock. But they frequently
get harder blows than they give. The
U tioa Herald stuck a pin into W. H.
Catlin because he displayed a Han
oook badge. Tbe badge, be replied,
was one worn by the old Second army
corps, which Hancock commanded at
the decisive battle of Gettysburg. If
it had not been for Hancock and Get
tysburg, he informs the' Herald, his
friends of that journal would now be
setting type on a Confederate news
paperprinted in Utica. He says fur
ther: "I earned thefight to wear that
badge by serving in the army of the
Union." Boston Post, Dem.
The Southern enthusiasm for
Hancock means, not that Hancock is
a rebel, but that the South accepts all
the results of the war as settled -beyond
dispute. It means that the
men who wore the gray are now
loyal to the blue. It means that the
boys who fought under the stars and
bars are now loyal to the stars and
stripes. It means that the disunion
soldier of fifteen years ago, having
been defeated in an honorable strug
gle, has no reserve of treason in bis
heart, but is as patriotic in his devo
tion to ihe Union now, as he was in
his devotion to principles which he
believed in then. It means that a
million Southerners who fought for
Dixie are now as ready to defend
the honor of a re-united country. It
means the elimination of the bloody
shirt from oolitics. It means a re-
turn of confidence between the North
and South. It means peace, pros-
perity, fraternity. Lexington (Mo. )

This ia the year of all otbeis when every
good man in the Democratic party should
not only respect and abide by, bui endea
vor to maintain, the party organization in
all of its effectiveness. Organization is tbe
bridge that has carried us as far as we have
gotten. Good Democrats wbo love their
party and their country should not think of
deseiting in tbia supreme moment. Let us
all stand cloao together, and feel once
again the inspiring elbow touch. Winston
Leader.
Personalism in politics is no new dis
temper in political organizations. It is
easily cured if taken in time, and it is cer
tain death to the party if not taken in time.
It is the attempt of individuals one or
more to use the party to advance indi
vidual ends. Personal revenges, personal
vindications, personal rewards, and per
sonal glorifications, are all but forms of the
same disease and in every form is equally
dangerous and despisable. Political parties
are organized solely for the public good,
and those who composs them unite to pro
mote that public good by securing a faith
ful and efficient administration of govern
ment according to a common political faith.

An esteemed friend in Powhatan

calls on ns for an article on Light
ning rods, telling us that the country
is overrun by agents, tnat tney are
carrying on vast quantities of money,
and saying tnat ne nas been "silly
enough to have one erected over his
bouse." He backs his request by allu
sions to ourself so complimentary
that there is nothing left us but com-
pliarice with his wish.

J history of a large number of noted
houses before1 and after the invention
of the rod. Churches, . cathedrals,
and other public houses, which before
the day of projectors were frequently
struck and sometimes greatly injured
or destroyed, have been shown by
authentic facts to have been rendered
secure by the erection; of rods.
The value of lightning. rods in pro
teotmg life and property is most con
spicuously exhibited in inter-tropica
regions, ' where the displays of light
ning are so much more frequent and
appalling than in temperate zones
Here, indeed, the danger is com
paratively trining. and is measured
rather by its awful nature than by
the frequency of disaster.
The Temple of Solomon stood one
thousand years in the stormy climate
of Palestine, and was never, struck
by, lightning. Neither the Bible nor
JoBephus mentions .such' a thing,
which, if it bad occurred, would
have strongly arrested attention.
Besides, the building was mostly
made of very combustible material,
and, if struck, must have been set on
fire. By circumstances apparently
fortuitous, it was better protected
against lightning than any other
house of modern times with all the
helps of scientific discovery. The
roof was thickly gilt, and from end
to end was surmounted with iron lan
1 oes pointed and gilt, supposed to
I have been erected to prevent denle-
ment of the roof by birds- Every
I side of the house was also thickly
gilt, and the rain was conducted from
the roof by metalio pipes into cisterns,
where water was constantly on hand
to be used in the service of the tem
ple. Thus we see that the building
was armed, not with a few metalio
points, but a great many : that these
points were connected, not with a
few rods, but a conducting surface as
extensive as the outer surface of the
building ; and that . this metalio con
nection was continued, not into moist
earth simply, but into deep cisterns
that contained water always. It ,is
impossible to imagine a more perfect
protection

The opening of the Chcraw and
Wadesboro' Railroad has already
been orieny announced, lo aay we
print a highly interesting sketch of
the history of the Road, with a full
description of its condition. The
completion of the road was undertak
en last year, arid the work' was done
so quietly that few persons, outside
of those directly interested knew
what rapid progress was 'made.
There has been no waste. An issue
of mortage bonds furnished what
money was needed. There is no
floating debt, and tho bonds sell at
a premium.
A glance at the map shows the
value and importance of . the new
line. . When completed to Salisbury
the distance from Charleston to
Lynohbnrg, and thence to . Northern
cities, will bo' considerably shortened.
Besides this, Charleston wilt be put
in direct connection at Salisbury with
the Western North Carolina Railroad,
with its extensions to Asheville, and
its connections with Morristo wn and
Knoxville. The Cheraw and Wades
boro Railroad gives Charleston at
once the opportunity, tb .recov-'
er business which formerly came
here, and was diverted by the
North Carolina railroads.. The esti
mate is that 10,000 bales of . cotton

L some and attractive' woman,, and it is said
she abandoned her husband and only child
under,the impression that if she could get
a divorce Lord Henry f aget would marry
her; However, this may be, it Js . certain
that tbe relations of the parlies were of lhe
f most intimate character, and the friends of
Mrs. Wetmore were led to believe a promise
of .marriage actually existed, and that a
-divorce having been obtained she would
toon become Lady A.nglesy, Lord Henry
Paget having succeeded td the title. The
unfortunate lady's hopes were Suddenly
blasted, however, by the publication of the
marriaee of the new Marouis to Hon. Mrs.
Wddehouse, widow of Lord Eimberley's
second son, and daughter of Preston King,
of Georgia. The shock to Mrs. Wetmore
was terrible, and her friends thought she
would loeeLber reason. After sbe became
more composed the idea occurred io her o:
suing the Marquis in the English law courts
for. a breach or promise, as sbe had upward
ox two hundred or bis letters which she
considered! would establish her case.
1 Whether she shrank from the scandal o
such a proceeding or whether she was de
terred from putting it into execution by
insufficiency of means, is not known, but
she settled down into a state of , deep melrin
choly, from which, nothing 'could arouse
her, and -finally sbe procured tbe fatal drug
which put an end to her existence. 1 be
police authorities held an inquiry into the
affair to-day, and after inspecting the body
gave M. Weeks, of the Chapcl'in Rue Bay
ard, permission to make all necessary ar
rangements for tbe funeral. Tbe last ser
vices will be conducted by Dr. Mosgan, at
his Chapel, on next Saturday morning.
