" WILMINGTON, JV. 7. Wednesdat Evening, Aug. 27, 1884; OS ! EVENING EDITIONJ - BEGIN THE WORK. ?1 The papers for weeks have been? writing about organizing, but as f aTi as we know it is thus far all talk and no work. It is useless to expect" a big majority if nothing but speaking is relied upon. We have tried that - since the war ia North Carolina and with a result that was not altogether: satisfactory.- In 1872, Jndge Merri-; , mon would bave been Governor if at least fifty- thousand Democrats had not refused to vote. In 1876, Gov. Vance's majority instead of - being something over .13,000 would have been jBOOOOor more, if all men '.who were, favorable to the - Dem ocratic party had voted. In 1 880, Govt-Jarvis's six or seven thousand majority , would have been" 60,000 at least if all the qualified voters in the State had gone'to the polls. No w stump speakingserves a good purpose. . It arouses the people and furnishes a certain sort of political : education for the classes who do not read newspapers. In North' Carolina there are at least 200,000 electors who do not read the papers. There are 379,000 males, over 21 years of age, and it is a great stretch of fa-- v vor to credit 179,000 with newspaper reading. But there are more than 100,000 voters, We have, no doubt, who never hear a speech during the ; campaign. So something .else than speaking must be resorted to if there is to be approximately a full vote-l-something that has not occurred in this State since 1860. " r . J'he counties must M Roughly organized; The elctdra innst be in- m,;. ' l.i, dnced to vote. ' The people must be directly reached, and this can Only bo -done by active committee work; 'The plan of organization as published .by . the State Committee ought to be adopted, at once and tbe committees. . in all the counties ought to be actively afi work. ; The followiner is oertinent. which we take from an editorial in ' the Pittsboro Record: ' ' ' . , , , - ; "We would suggest that every towpship - - committee at once make-out two lists con-' taiuiag the names ' of every voter in the ,. township, zone list to be retained by tbe : committee and the other to be forwarded to the chairman of . the county committee: v Then And out what racoon the list voted at tbe last election, and how they voted. y Next ascertain their present political opin- ions, see what changes are probable, and ? so work up the township that the commit- tee - will know the day, before the election how every man will vote next day. Above all things get those who did not vote at the ? last election to tote at the" next,' v v'r.. i . i - BLAIlfE- AND CIVIL SERVICE.
