WILMINGTON, N. C.
Tuesday Morning, Dec. 6, 1881
JOHN SHERMAN EXPOSED.
It is not tov be wondered at that
John Sherman should have been
uneasy under the proposed investiga
tion into the Treasury Department
It is known to our readers that Secre
tary Windoin was led to suspect
some crookedness in the Department,
and he caused an investigation to
start and then stopped it. "When the
matter Yjame up in the Senate Sher
man opposed the sending of the tes
timony taken before the Committee
of Investigation, whilst agreeing that
the report of the Committee should
be received. The Republicans sus
tained him in this position. Every
one was perplexed to know the cause
of such a procedure on the part of
the ex-Secretary of the Treasury,
who is, we believe, verily, one of the
corruptest men of his times. It has
now leaked out that his opposition to
the evidence being forthcoming was
because it placed him in such a cor
rupt position before the country
Some of the evidence has got into
the papers, and we can now see
readily why it is that John Sherman
should have taken the strange dodge
he ;did to shield himself from con
tempt, and why his brother Senators
should have placed their arms
'around him to shield him, if possible,
front the slings and arrows of out
rageous fortune."
One Paul Brown was employed to
do certain work by the Treasury De
partment. Frank Hessler, Superin
tendent of the Treasury Cabinet Shop,
employed him to do certain work for
J ohn Sherman. Brown did the work
on the new residence and new stables,
and the expense thereby incurred was
charged not to the Secretary on his
own account, but to the account of
the Third Auditors office, Register's
office, National Bank Redemption
Agency, Supervising Architect's
office, and other divisions of the De
partment. Brown also swore that he
had done other work for Sherman, of
which he kept no account, but for
which ie was - similarly paiat the
rate of? $3 per day.
- -"Tw Now this is interesting decidedly.

screens for stable windows and door.
'Charged to National Bank Redemption
Agency.
"June 6, 1879, working four-eighths of a
day repairing doors for manure pits for
Secretary Sherman. Charged to Marine
Hospital."
Now is not that rich? But who is
surprised? After Sherman's course
in the Great Fraud of 1876, who can
be surprised at any rascality of which
he may be guilty? We suppose such
revelations were hurtful to "the par
ty" and Secretary "Windom called
off his investigators! If that Treas
ury Department could be investi
gated to the bottom a degree of cor
ruption would be revealed that would
defy all parallel. It is because the
Republican leaders know how venal
has been the management during the
last twenty years of their rule that
they move heaven and earth at each
election to prevent defeat. If the
people re not corrupt themselves,
and if they were well informed as to
the actual facts in connection with
Republican dominancy, they would
rise up as one man and scourge the
depraved and unfaithful officials from
the places they dishonor.
THE FANGS EXTRACTED.
We have received a copy of the
Lewiston (Maine) Gazette of the 26th
'ult., which contains a very long and
conclusive reply to the communica
tion of Mr. C. I. Barker, which ap
peared in another Lewiston paper
and which we discussed in a column
or more. We do not know who is
the writer of the Gazette article, but
it is thorough and well done. We
are more than gratified to see this de
fence of the South as a cotton manu
facturing section from the pen of a
New Englander who understands the
facts and is disposed to tell the truth
and nothing but the truth.
The article would occupy at least
four columns of the Stak, and is very
complete as a refutation of a writer
who tried to make his readers believe
that the South could never become
the rival of New England in cotton
manufacturing, and that Maine could
beat Georgia or any other Southern
State in its advantages. The Gazette L
writer knows what he is doing. He
writes like an expert and covers the
whole ground, and is caustic as well
exhaustive. He discusses the earn
ings of Southern mills, wages, opera
tives, watei power, waste, transpor
tation and freightage. We may
copy points hereafter, as they are
instructive and just. He goes for
the Barker that tried to bite and got
bit badly. in this style:
"Mr. Barker's picture of the Southern
cotton manufacturing industry is one of un
relieved blackness His condemnation is so
thorough and unsparing that it defeats its
purpose. It reveals but too plainly the ani
mus that controlled it and makes it evident
that in his Southern investigations the de
sire of a bad report was invariably father to
the thought. In return for the warm hospi
tality, the courteous civilities and hearty
welcome with which, it goes without say
ing, Mr. Barker was everywhere greeted by
his Southern hosts, he has nothing in re
turn to offer when he gets home but un
generous detection flippantly expressed in
the slangy and stereotyped phrases of an
irresponsible newspaper reporter and based
upon what we shall show to be gross and
reckless misrepresentations. That Mr. Bar
ker should find it necessary to employ such
methods against his rivals is the most tell
ing admission of his sgcret fear of their for
midable and growing strength that he could
make." ' .
Barker is agent for the Bates
Mill, in Lewiston. ' He went through
fourteen States and did his observa-'
tions in fourteen days. Jn that time
he learned it all, but, as we said in
our former notice, he took care to
avoid the 'cotton milling centres in J
Georgia, and did not visit the two or
three cotton miUingcentres in this
State. If he had gone to Haw River,
into Randolph, and further west in
North Carolina, he might have" learn
ed something to his advantage. The
following throws light . On Main e
mills, and especially upon C. Bar
ker and the. motive that prompted
bii attack npon4ilie-Sottth. r The Go
HsWTien MrBker. sits 'in Judgment
upon the Atlanta Cottoii Mill and declares

of which he has beenf the, agent for? the past
ten vears. and which' had a eapital of tlw
-oW:000,,!iecame stocky
was cut down seventy cents on tneaonarr
He should further bear in mind that the
Barker mill, which enjoys the honor of
bearing his name", and over whieh for three;
or four years he was not only uie rresiaeni
but the managing'director.and which had a
capital of $4Qp,000, was so hopelessly in
volved that its stock was cut down to nine
ty cents on the 'dollar and a new organization-formed,
thereby causing the almost
total loss of ; nearly all their hard earnings
to hundreds of farmers,, widows and or
phans who had been induced to invest their
money in that corporation."
RACE DISCRIMINATION.
The Star has expressed its surprise
often that the negro voters of the
land have borne so long the treatment
they have received at the hands of
their white allies. For fifteen years
they have been the political pack
horses of their party. They have
borne the burden and the heat of the
'.day, but they have not been rewarded.
Where is there a Northern colored
U. S. Senator, or member of the U.
S. House, or Governor, or any other
higher official ? Where is the Cabi
net officer that is colored, or the FoV
eign Ambassador to a prominent
Court? The mission to Liberia,
which has no honors and a certainty
almost of death, is all that the Re
publicans have to give. The reason
cannot be that there are none quali
fied, for in Philadelphia, in Wash
ington, in New Orleans,- and other
places there Sre some able and well
educated negroes who will compare
favorably with many j the officials
holding high office. There are col
ored men who have more intellec
tual force and niore scholaship than
President Arthur can claim.
For some time the more intelligent
negroes have begun to grow restive
under the utter ignoring of their
race. The colored voters of Buffalo,
New York, have issued an address in
which they speak very plainly of the
treatment to which they have been
subjected by their white allies in that
city. They say :
"And to-day, although we have colored
men among us of good sound financial
standing, not one is summoned by a Re
publican sheriff to do jury duty, the prefer
ence being given to a lot of political hangers-on,
whose only recommendation is that
they are white. Not a man in our post
office or custom house, with a Republican
janitor of the city and county hall not a
place for an assistant or a needy colored
woman. We are dissatisfied with this state
of things, and we are becoming more so.
We are tired of this deception of this oft
expressed friendliness without any evidence
of it. We are tired of seeing our children
continually forced into menial service be
cause of this prejudice on the part of our
so-called 'political friends.' Our experi
ence is daily teaching us that here at least
they are treated as well by one party .as an
other, in fact better by one; as it promises
nothing and does it, while the other promises
everything and does nothing."
All this is no doubt true. What
applies to Buffalo will apply through
out the North. Jn the South, for
many years, they have had a poor
showing at the hands of their white
allies. If they do not know this and
feel this, then they have passed be
yond sympathy. In the interview of
a prominent southern ttepuDlican,
published in the Star recently, it
was given ont emphatically that the
negroes should not have office. After
awhile the riegfoes will find out that
they are merely useful in getting
office for their white allies, and that
it is not intended that they shall ever
have any part of the loaves and fishes.
The colored people ought not to be
so fooled by their white allies. They
do the voting, and the whites get the
offices. Look at the election of the
Clerk of the House in the Republi
can Congressional caucus. Here was
a good chance to give an intelligent
negro a good paying and responsible
office. But the white McPherson re
ceived 92 votes and the colored Rai
ney but 44. Of course the Star does
not care whether Rainey was defeat
ed by his own party friends or not,
but we have a right to point to this
instance, one of ten thousand, where
the negro is overlooked, and the
loaves and fishes distributed among
the whites. If the colored voters
are content to abide by such an ar
rangement Democrats will not put on
mourning for thirty days.
CURRENT COMMENT.
The New York Tariff Conven
tion, which came together with a
great blare of trumpets, has petered
out in a very inconclusive way. In
stead of making any serious attempt
to lay before the country substantial
reasons for a continuance of the pre?
sent oppressive and ridiculous tariff
the members confined themselves
mainly to setting forth the impor
tance of high duties upon all impor
tations which might come in conflict
with their personal interests. The
whole course of the Convention indi
cates that -its . members: feel the pro
tective tariff to be an imposition upon
the people and- that heir chief fear is.

THE PRESS ON TARIFF AND
REVENUES
Statesville Landmark.
Anent the discussion as to whetner
the tariff, or internal revenue taxes,
or both, should be reduced, it is
worth while to remark that but for
rthe four years, just ended, of Demo
cratic supremacy in Congress, tnere
would be no surplus revenue to nss
about.
Warsaw Brief Mention.
But, if the News- Observer desires
the tax on tobacco and liquor re
moved, we wholly disagree with our
able contemporary. Let the U. S.
tax remain, and let Congress make
haste to admit duty free all articles
of prime necessity and to reduce the
duties on all manufactured goods to
the minimum point to which the
needs of revenue will permit if it
takes the last cent off. A protective
tariff is an iniquity. It robs one
class to enrich another. Th4 class
robbed is composed of the many
the poor. A protective tariff creates
a privileged class of a few nabobs.
wto roll in wealth by grinding the
faces of the poor. Away with pro
tection ! To this end .keep the tax on
liquors and tobacco. Let the State
tax these articles too.
New Bernian.
We would like to submit to our
pfriends this proposition: Let the
United States still keep up its inter
nal and import tax. When the debt
as is now the fear shall be extin
guished, then still let the money ac
crue, but the Government to dis
tribute the accrued sums to the seve
ral States in proportion to their pay
ment into the Treasnry, and let the
States, through properly constituted
commissions, invest the sums in edu
cation, in digging canals, in railroads,
and in thousands of other things
which would redound to the credit
and welfare of the State.
Weldon News.
We see the subject of revenue dis
cussed in our exchanges, most of
them favoring the abolition of the
whole system. A reduction in the
tariff rates is also demanded by many.
These two ways of raising revenue
affect each other materially, we think.
The country requires money for all
the machinery of the government and
for the payment of the national debt,
principal and interest. The money
must come from somewhere, and
if the internal revenue system is
abolished, undoubtedly the govern
ment must derive its support from
the tariff, unless direct taxation is re
sorted to.
Lenoir Topic.
The South was an agricultural
community and free trade is bene
ficial to such. The New Englanders,
adopting a fallacy for a political
truth, contended that their manufac
tures should be protected in the out
set against-foreign factoriesby levy
ingan import duty upon all or certain
imported fabrics. Fact, experiment,
history point to free trade as the only
true principle in eve5ry political
economy. Any writer upon political
economy who advocates protection
or even a tariff for revenue, when
any other source of revenue is pos
sible, is set down as a quack. It
stifles commerce, it hinders communi
cation with the rest of the world, ' it
is unprogressive. England, for whom
protection would have been a bless
ing if to any country, tried it for
centuries, and when, in 1846, she
was forced to adopt free trade as an
experiment, her commerce revived
and she is to-day a great manufac
turing community, standing firmly by
a policy which New England and
the Republican party are fighting
and have been always fighting.

trict Court of New York, has delivered an

Neigralgia Sprains,
Pain in the. Back and Side.
There Is nothing more painful than these
diseases; but the pain can be removed and
the disease cured by use of Perry Davis'
Pain Killer.
This remedy is not a. cheap Benzine
or Petroleum product that must be kept
away from fire or heat to avoid danger
of explosion, nor is it an untried, expert
ment that may do more harm than good.
Pain Killer has been In constant use
for forty years, and the universal testimony
from all parts of the world Is, It never
fails. It not only effects a permanent cure,
but it relieves pain almost instantaneously.
Being a purely vegetable remedy, It Is safe
In the. hands of the most inexperienced.
The record of cures by the use of Patn
KnxiB would fill volumes. The following
extracts from letters received show wha
those who have tried it think:
Edgar Cady, Owatosna, Minn., says :
About a year since my wife became subject
to severe Buffering from rheumatism. Our
resort was to the Pais Ktt.t.kr, which speedily
relieved her.
Charles Powell writes from the Sailors'
Home, London :
I had been afflicted three years with neuralgia
and Txuent spasms of the stomach. Ihe doctors
at Westminster Hospital gave up my case in
despair. I tried your Pain Killxr, and it gave
me immediate relief. I have regained my
strength, and am now able to follow my usual
occupation.
G. H. Walworth. Saco, Me., writes :
I experienced immediate relief from pain in
the side by the use of your Pain Ktt.t.ck
E. York says :
I have used your Fxnt Khxeb for rheumatism,
and have received great benefit.
Barton Seaman says :
Have used Path Killer for thirty years;
and have found it a never-failing remedy for
rheumatism and imna
Sir. Burdltt writes :
It nrtrrfaiU togive relief in cases of rheumatism.
Phil. Gilbert, Somerset, Pa., writes :
From actual use, I know your Pain Kn-i-Tri
is the best medicine I can get.
All druggists keep Pats Killer. Its price
is so low that It is within the reach of an,
and It will save many times Its cost in doctors'
