EVENING EDITION.
THE RADICAL LEGISLATURE OF
IS 68 69.
As we have had occasion to say
often, there is nothing comes home
to a people more nearly than exces
sive and oppressive taxation. The
reason why the whole people have
been so tolerant of the tariff is that
they have paid $1.50 tax on their $3
hat and f 1.25 tax on their $3 shoes
and have not known it. It is so, too,
with the revenue tax to the majority.
They have been heavily taxed, but
did not feel it, because they paid it
to the dealer instead of the tax
collector.
" He that is taxed, not seeing how you tax
him,
Let him not know't and he's not taxed
at all."
We may extend the remark and
say that the people of North Carolina
have been far more tolerant of Rad
icalism than, they would be if they
had imprinted upon their minds pre
cisely what it has done against them
in their pockets. If every honest la
boring man and hard-pressed tax
payer in the State knew the extent of
the plundering of the old Radical
party; if they knew the actual excess
of taxes they had paid because of
these plundenngs, we feel certain
that two things they wotrrd never do
forgive the plunderers and vote to
put them and their successors in of
fice. It is the duty of the public press
to recur to the past and to remind the
over-burdened taxpayers what they
have suffered in the past. Reminded
of these things they will understand
better what they may expect in the
future if the plunderers are restored
to power. In matters of govern
ment nothing is more important than
to recur to first principles and to ex-,
amine into the management of par
ties.. The test of the worth of prin
ciples is to reduce them to practice.
Politicians as a class are not careful
as to what they promise. They go
for winning. Parties in convention
may declare that they favor this or
that principle or measure, but may
fail in their practice. Let us bring the
opposition to the only safe test.
Let us examine into their record and
see how they did when in possession
of the State Government.
In 1868 the Radicals got full pos
session. No one can ever forget
those times. A visit to Raleigh w2s
enough to give a patriot the blues
for a twelve-month. Corruption lift
ed its unblushing head in the capi
tolT Ieculaticra, fraud, bribery, de
bauchery, were the order of the day,
and marked the progress of the
night. It was a time of political
prostitution. 'Li ttlefield and his set
were masters of the arena, and
ITbrth Carolina, was prostrate. Pre
datory beasts and human ghouls held
carnival in the halls of debate and in
the chambers of conference, i But no
pen can draw the lines; no brush can
deepen the colors enough. '
What did the Radicals when they
got into power, ? ! In the first place
the Legislature sat for nearly an 'en
tire year. The exact time was 304
days. This useless, foolish, corrupt
long session resulted as might have
been expected. It cost the poor
ople the stripped and pealed and
hard-worked, tax -oppressed whites,
$430.958.68 four hundred and thirty
thousand nine hundred and fifty
eight dollars and sixty-eight cents.
This is what the Radical Legislature
of North Carolina of 1868-'69 cost
you, the people. As long as memory
lasts this period of wholesale plun
der and corruption should never be
forgotten. Let the honest tax-payers
never forget that when the Radical
party had full sway in North Caro
lina that they spent upon themselves
$430,958.68 during one Legislature.
In contrast take the Democratic
Legislature. The total expenses of
the two sessions of 1879-80 were
$71,293.80. We see that tbe sum
wasted by the Radicals in paying
themselves for one Legislature would
last for nearlv twelve vears under
y
Democratic rule.
Do not lose sight of this important
fact. Cut it out and paste it in your
hat. The Legislature of 1880-81 cost
but $56,259.26. At this rate of ex
pense the sum expended by the Rad
icals in paying themselves during the
Legislature of 1868-69 would have
been sufficient to meet the expenses
of legislation under Democratic rule
for nearly sixteen years. Be sure to
remember that for Legislators are to
be elected this year. We shall show
.next what the Long Legislature did
how the men who paid themselves
$430,000 handled the people's money
in other things..
A REBELLION, .
There is a rebellion going on
among the more intelligent colored
voters. We have noted evidences of
this in New York, Washington, Vir
ginia, South Carolina, and some little
indication in our own State. The
negroes have been drawing the ma
chine for seventeen years ano! the few
white bosses have sat hieh above
their heads and cracked their whips.
It seems that the tidal wave of revo
lution has struck Pennsylvania also.
The Philadelphia Times has this to
say :
"The rebellion in the colored vote against
Bosses and machine methods is one of the
gravest problems the machine leaders have
been called upon to meet. It is all the more
grave because it was wholly unexpected;
and when it is remembered that the colored
vote of Philadelphia holds the balance of
power between the two parties and that it
is also the balance of power in the State,
the Bosses are justly alarmed at the formi
dable defection in the machine line. An
other trouble is that the leaders of the
colored movement for emancipation from
the Bosses are unpurchasable. "
In this State in the past this could
not be said. Any attempt at inde
pendent action has resulted in a free
distribution of "loot money," and op
position on the part of the negro has
been quieted.
We have met with a paragraph in
an exchange that shows how the re
volt is widening. Turner is one of
the best educated and ablest of col
ored men, and was minister to Libe
ria, we believe. The paragraph is
as follows:
'Missouri newspapers say that it is the
intention of J. Milton Turner and other
leaders of the negro element in Missouri to
place independent tickets in the field when
ever the opportunity presents itself, as a
means of punishing the Republican politi
cians for their neglect of the negro."
FARMING IN THE SOUTH,
If a writer in the Atlanta Consti
tution does not overdo the thing very
much, farming in Georgia, and in
deed, in the South generally, ought
to be profitable. According to him
an improved farm of 500 acres can
be bought for $2,500. To stock' it
and buy the necessary tools and a
year's provisions for a family he
places at $6,325. He says three
fourths of this is permanent capital.
The crop would be this in a good
year:
"One thousand and five hundred bushels
of oats on one hundred acres, $1,200; 1,500
bushels of corn on 100 acres, $1,200; 300
bushels of peas, $300; 600 gallons of syrup
from 5 acres of sugar cane, $300; 500
bushels cotton seed, less seed for planting,
$300; 80 bales cotton on 200 acres, at $50 a
bale, $4,000 ; total, $7, 800. "
This estimate may be correct in
some instances, but it is doubtful if
so much can be realized upon an
average. In North Carolina a good
improved farm capable of producing
such "results could hardly be bought
for $2,500. In some sections it
could not" he bought for . three
or five times that sum. There
are farmers in almost all of the coun
ties who do as well or better than
the suppositive Georgia ; instance.-
We have published year after year
and week after -week in our State
gleanings many, instances of farming
in various sections that equal any r in
the land. In some instances we have
published facts , that show ? North
Carolina' farming
other States and make them open
their eyes as to the excellence 'of
North Carolina farming wheij pur
sued, intelligently and upon advanced
ideas. ., ; ; . ......
There has been made more than a
bale of cotton to the .cre on fields
running from 100 to 300 acres. We
have known authentically of such re
sults. We have known of twenty
one bales being made with one
plough. We have read in our ex
changes of very encouraging and
astonishing results during this year
from truck-farming. In tobacco, as
our readers know, sections of North
Carolina greatly excel any other por
tion of the United States. There are
hundreds of farmers who make from
$250 to $1,200 to every field-hand
they work. Some few have even
gone beyond the highest figure. Farm
ing, when scientifically, wisely, indus
triously and economically pursued in
the South, has been generally profita
ble. It is never wisely or economi-
callv pursued with mortgages. A
A ww.
word to the wise is sufficient.
There is no falling off in railroad
building after all. In fact the month
0
of August showed more work than
w
any other in railroad construction.
The Philadelphia Press says there
were fifty miles of track laid every
working day in August. It says:
"This means that a working army of
over 200,000 men have teen drawing from
the quick capital of the country at the rate
of over a million dollars a "day, and putting
it where it can never be recalled and can
hardlv be expected to return at the rate of
more than three per cent, per annum during
the next decade. If population will follow
these roads, or if they go to meet a traffic
which awaits them, there need be no fear
of the future; but too many have been built
in order to divide a trade now amply ac
commodated by existing lines."
The Northern capitalists have
a.
failed to understand the splendid
opening for investment in construct
ing a road connecting Wilmington
with Cincinnati or the Uhio at some
other point. There is still a chance
for profitable investment in railroad
building in the South.
HERE IT IS.
What has become of that letter,

Capt. S. A. Ashe, Raleigh, N. C:
Dear Sir: On the 22d current, at
Lincoln ton, in the presence of Col.
James A. Leak, I asked Col. Dockery
to meet me in a joint canvass of the
State. He said that he could not
make an arrangement to that effect
without the concurrence of Col.
Cocke, and that he would write me
from Asheville in respect to the mat
ter after seeing- him. Herewith I
send you the letter this day received
from Col. Cocke. Make such use of
it as Capt. Coke and yourself deem
proper. I had a splendid audience
here yesterday. Cordially yours,
R. T. Bennett.
Asheville, N. C, August 29.
Hon. JR. T. Bennett:
Dear Sir: At the request of Col.
Dockery I write yon. He informed
me that you desired a joint canvass
for eight or ten discussions some
where in the State. . I decline to al
low it on acoount of Capt. Coke's
action toward me. You can blame
no one but your chairman for my de
nial of the request. I am, with great
respect, W. M. Cocke, Jr.,
Chairman, &c.

Charlotte Journal.
While at Newton Judge Bennett
received .a letter from Mr. Cocke say
ing that he wroto at the request of
Col. Dockery, who bad informed him
that Judge Bennett wanted ten or
twelve joint discussions in the State,
but that he (Uocke). woulq not allow
it, and he went on to . charge the re
sponsibility for not having joint dis
cussions from the begiphing on the
Chairman of the Democratic Execu
tive Committee. This is, of course,
a very poor excuse for not accepting
Judge .bennetts proposition, but in
order to settle-this matter once for
all, we are now authorized to say
this: Judge Bennett respectfully
invites, nay, most eaarnestly re
quests, Col. Dockery, the Republi
can candidate for Congressman at
large, to meet him at all of his ap
pointments throughout the State,
We are further authorized, if this is
declined, to say that Judge Bennett
will abandon all his appointments,
and go to Col. Dockery's appoint
ments, if Col. Dockery will divide
time witn mm ana pnrsuo tne usual
course of alternating in opening and
closing debate. -And we respectfully
call the attention "of Mr. Cocke,
Chairman of the "iberalV ; commit
tee, arid CoL Dookery and the public
to these propositions. '

a Tire-eater, and a great nater -ot

This so exasperated Yancey that one
day in the Senate, after Hr. Hill had
concluded a speech in defense of Mr.
Davis, he rose in his place, and in
that style of his which is simply in
imitable, proceeded to charge Mr.
Hill with inconsistency, and a want
of ardor for the cause of the South.
He then brought up Mr. Hill's
past record, and finally referred
to the Stephens difficulty, and inti
mated that Hill was a coward. W hen
he did that Mr. Hill picked up an
inkstand and threw it at Yancey,
just grazing his cheek-bone. Yancey,
in dodging, slipped and tell back

himself slightly. That was all there
was of it."
"Then Mr. Hill was not the

death ?"
"He did not. He was not within

"Then the seemingly premature
death of Mr. Yancey was not in any

Hill ?"
"It was not. Mr. Yancey died of

CURRENT COMMENT.
If "Mr. Hubbell's documents"
represent anything they represent
"Republican doctrine." The spirit
of "Hubbell's documents" crop out
in all the Republican campaign docu
ments and speeches; crop out in every
act of " the Republican President;
crop out in the acts of all his subordi
nates. Mr. Hubbell has abundant
"party authority" for his blackmail
ing operations. He is backed by the
Republican Administration. The Re
publican party is pre-eminently the
party of regress, not the party of
progress. It refuses to touch the
living questions of the day. Louis
ville Courier-Journal, Dem.
Mr. Houk, the drunken Re
publican Congressman from the
Second District of Tennessee, once
declared that the shooting of Gen.
Garfield was a good thing for the Re
publican party. He now is appeal-
jm, to the Hubbell committee, of
which, by the way, he is a member,
for a larere portion of the proceeds of
its robber v of office-holders to assist
him in securing his re-election over a
Republican opponent who has been
nominated to run against him. Are
the clerks, laborers and scrubwomen
in t he employ of the Federal Govern
ment bound to pay money to elect
such a fellow? Baltimore Bay,
