EVENING EDITION.
THE COLOBLINE.
From the time the : negroes were
given the ballot until now they have
combined with and supported that
class of men who were hostile to the
Southern whites and who did all they
could to 'malign, to abuse, to oppress
them. We suppose that in no elec
tion heldT in North Carolina since
1868, .have five hundred negroes
voted with the Democrats.
The negroes drew the color line in
the ,r first election after they were
clothed with the franchise.
mi ; " -ti
i oe negross in every emuuuu iiem
in the last sixteen years have drawn
the color line.
The negroes have, with very few
honorable exceptions, stood by the
oppressors' of the South. They have
voted for men who robbed the whites
and piled up taxation until it was as
high as a mountain. They have been
party to all of the peculations
in office,, (see the report "of
ex-Treasurer Jenkins), to all of
the abuses, to all of the violence
that have followed Radical rule in
the South. Every man of candor and
sense knows that without negro help
the scallawags and carpet-baggers
could never have wasted and stole
so many tens of millions of dollars in
the Southern States. The negroes
are in one sense then to blame for all
of the malfeasance, all of the thiev
ing in office; for the high taxes in
North Carolina when the white Rad
icals had control; for all of the rob
beries perpetrated, the great public
debt that was created, and the de
struction of the credit of the State;
ffr thft w?l1. nat. anriomoa t.lio- lirnV
iog up of the common schools, the
destruction of the school fund, the
closing of the ' University, the sus
pension of the great writ of Habeas
Corpus in certain counties in North
Carolina; for the killing of "Chick-
en Dtepnens, tne incarceration of
Judge Kerr, and Dr. Roan and
Mr. .'Bowe and Josiah Turner and
other good citizens of Caswell, Ala
mance and Orange; for the Holden
regime and the Kirk War and the
advont nt tVm TAfiKA.KA. . xi a
and for most of the - disorders and
collisions that have occurred in North
Carolina in the last fifteen or
eighteen years. ,
We say the negroes are to a great
extent responsible for these crimes
and outrages because it was their
votes that put such "fellows of the
baser sort in office. In this way the
negroes drew the color line.
' The whites .would be untrue to
ineir Diooa and race if they weije to
propose to obliterate the color line.
They never made it, and they will be
recreant to duty, and to self-respect,'
and to Caucasian manhood if they
ever attempt to wipe out the color
c line. - ,
When the negroes' begin to vote
for men of capacity and integrity
and justice and decorum and, purity
and ; honor W will be time enough
then for the whites to move in the
matter of annulling the color line.
Whenever the negroes show that
they really appreciate and desire
good, honest, just, economical govern
ment it will be time enough then for5
the men of white skins and generous
hearts to take steps to heal dissen
sions and obliterate the color line. "
At present there are no signs of
repentance or change on the part of
the negroes. They show towards
the men who employ : them and en
able them to live the same- hostility
and bitterness that they have mani
fested in every campaign since they
could vote. They will vote next
week just as they have been voting
for men who are not worthy of a
freeman's suffrage and for men
who have deserted their own race in
the South.
Let the color line be allowed to re
main just as the negroes drew that
line when they began to vote. Let
the genuine, self-respecting white
men of North Carolina stand by the
Constitution of their fathers; let
them rally around the flag of Demo
cracy under whose., ample folds there
are protection and order "and liberty
without license and economy in the
administration of the Government
and justice to all men and the pres
ervation of free institutions regula
ted by wise laws.
White men of New Hanover stand
by your race. White men ef the
Cape Fear be true to your ancestral
faiths, to a Government of the peo
ple, and for the people, and by the
people. White men of the Sixth
District be true to yourselves, to
your people, to honest and just Go
vernment. White men of the
Old North State the State of Gas
ton and Macon, of Henderson and
Badger, of Stanly and Graham and
the patriots and freemen of the past,
be true to yourselves and you can not
be false to any. Do your duty next
Tuesday. Vote as white men should
vote, and see to it that no detnment
befak North Carolina.
We have no feelings but kind feel
ings for the negroes who behave
themselves, observe order and peace,
are industrious and faithful and de
cent and polite. We do not know a
worthy white man who has not the
same feelings. They would be glad
to see the negroes improving in all
respects.. They show in their daily
intercourse with the negroes that
they are kindly disposed. This is
true, every -word of it. But white
men have rights, and these they
must maintain. They have convic
tions of duty, and these they must
obey. They have principles, and
these they must assert. They must
rely upon themselves. '
Now. for victory, and then for
cleaning out the offices and scruti
nizing and exposing the official re
cords of the country. There is a
great work ahead for active, vigilant,
determined, honorable and honest
men.
QUININE AND NECESSARIES.
' Here is a fact that shows how the
Tariff tax bears heavily on the sick
and poor. A few years ago you had
to pay two or three cents for a grain
of quinine, or from $4 to $5 for an
ounce. Now you can buy it in Wil
mington at retail for 1 6ent a gram
or $1.40 an ounce. This is the dif
ference between Tariff and Free
Trade. .
There are some nineteen quinine
factories in the world. Of these four
are in the United States. The poor
men and the sick were so taxed as to
keep quinine up to 4 or $5 an ounce
at retail that, four factories in the
country might make huge fortunes
and out of the misfortunes and suf
ferings of the people.
The tax has been taken off ,quinine
comes in free of duty, and now you
can buy 60 grains for 40 cents at re
tail in Philadelphia right under the
noses of the stupendous monopolists,
Powers & Weightman. There are a
great many articles now heavily
taxed under the Tariff that are posi
tive necessaries of life. Take off the
high tax and let them come in free
of all duty, and the laboring men of
the'country 17,000,000 by the last
census would buy them'at prices
not more than one-half or two-thirds
of the present prices. ,
. England, wise in political science
"and great in brains and with a long,
severe, chequered experience now
does not tax but few of the common
necessaries . of life. She raises her
immense, revenue upon the luxuries
arid the wealth of the land , h
4 In 1882, Great Britain raised $741,
857,400 of revenue. The population
is 35,262,762. The United States
raised some $400,000,000. The popu
lation 53,000,000.-- ' :
England raised, its revenues as fol
lows rTariff, $100,000,000 ; internal
tax (excise)' $i35,000,000; $55,000,
000 from sale, of stamps; $58,000,000
from incomes of the rich; $35,
000,000 from postoffice department.
ThV remainder is raised upon crown
lands,' 16carpurpo8es,telegraph; land
tax; &c. But the main revenues; aro
from the wealth -and luxuries. , For.
instance, under the British Tariff to
bacco alone pays $45,000,000 yearly.
Then wine, beer, ale, cocoachickory,
tea, coffee. An, internal tax is levied
on spirits, iiqUors? ;&o. . Tobacco, in
leaf pays 90 cents tax and raanu f ao
tured $1.16. Cigars pay $1.32 tax a
pound. Tea pay 8 12 cents a pound
and yields $18,500,000. Coffee pays
3 cents for unground and 4 cents for
ground. :
The true principle of political econ
omy is to raise the needed funds of a
Government upon things thst are use
less, that people can do without that
are not necessary to health and
happiness. Political economists are
agreed that no country can have sub
stantial prosperity that raises its reve
nues npon the prime commodities of
life. . '
HATTON ON BLAINE.
Postmaster General Hatton, a sup
porter of James Fisher Blaine for
President, once drew a very vivid
picture of the "plumed knave" in his
own paper. He knew all about the
trafficing and slippery Speaker,and he
told what he knew. That he is now
giving the dirty fellow a warm sup"
port is to the discredit of Hatton.
But hear him thus discourse when
Blaine was defeated at Chicago:
"But during these four years the tricks
of the demagogue and the ways of the po
litical crook became known to the people,
and from the day of the party's deliverance
at Cincinnati the prospects ofBlaineism
waned. And there .(at Chicago
in-1880) Blaineism died a death that will
know no waking. It may attempt to set
up shop here and there for the purpose of
revenge, but, like the milk sickness, it will
never again be anything more than a local
disease. Blaine's interest in the Republi
can party has fled. Driven from the House
by a threatening investigation, he succeeded
in gaining a place in the Senate, only to
find himself a dwarf and a nonentity, glad
to escape and to seek shelter under the
cloak of the man who had carried off the
prize that he bad twice contested for, and
while thus sheltered he seeks to stab the man
about whose form he clings that he may
not be entirely lost to public view, and,
with revenge eating at his heart, he aims to
assassinate the party that refused in its wis
dom to make him its leader. When he has
traffieed away the patronage of the State
Department as he did his power as Speaker
he will become a political tramp, and any
party that will embrace him can get him."
It is true this picture was drawn
some four years ago and before Hat
ton had got a high place, but it was
a true picture and well made. Mark
Twain, a pronounced Republican,
says he opposes Blaine because
of what he was told in the
past by t leading Republican pa
perswhat a corrupt rascal Blaine
was. To condemn Blaine and ex
hibit his real character Democrats
need to use no other material than
that furnished by the Tribune, and
other leading papers, and by the
Hattons and other -Republican offi
cials. .
If you have not read be sure to
read the address of the National
Democratic Committee that appeared
in the Sta.b of yesterday. Be sure to
read what is said of the devilish ma
chinations of the Blainites and of
the powers and duties of United
States Marshals and Supervisors. We
-copy a part concering the latter. The
Committee say:
"No supervisor of election, marshal or
deputy marshal 'of the United States; no
State officer, and no human being, be his
authority what it may, can lawfully pre
vent his access to the judges of election for
the purpose of making such claim. It is
for these judges of election to say whether
they will accept a ballot from the man who
claims the right to deposit it. : The proper
and intended office of marshal and deputy
marshal of the United States.at Congression
al elections was to protect the voter on his
way to the polls to submit to the judges
of election his claim to elective franchise;
to preserve fit order while such claim was
under consideration, and to secure the ar
rest of those who were detected in attempt
ing to deposit a fraudulent vote in the bal
lot box under care of the judges of elec
tion. The interposing of gangs
of ruffians, paid out of the public treasury,
between a citizen and the ballot box, upon
the day of election, and especially upon
a Presidehtial election day, is possibly
the greatest outrage which can be perpe
trated upon a citizen of the United States."
We leara from the; Cut rent that
Mr. E. B. Meatyard in the Ameri
can 'Journal of Railway Appliances,
proposes to construct freight cars of
steel. He enters into the subject at
length and makes out a good case for
a change. He shows "that a train's
crew could take 832 tons of paying
freight 1,000 miles at a profit of
$4,751 net, if the train were composed
of steel cars, eich holding 1,000
bushels of wheat. On the other
hand, with a wooden train of - the
same gross weight, the crew could
transport but 640 tons of paying
freight, and the net profit would only
be ?190. On the wheat crop of
some . great State ' ($52,000,000
bushels) : Mr. Meatyard calculates
that there would be a saving of i $5,
562,760 were it necessary to move
that crop 1,000 miles. The reasom
for the gain by the use of steel cars
lie in the shortening of the train.",
fiy i . , ' ' '
i;:The Tombigbee i Presbytery has
spoken out on the subject I of ' evolu
tion. It does" not like the action of
the Directors of Columbia Theologi
cal Seminary. The paper intro
duced by Rev. Dr. c Bard well, i a
graduate of the Seminary, . is to be
considered at the Spring session of
the Presbytery. It doubtless voices
the opinion of nine-tenths of the edu
cated clergy in the land as well as
of the Presbyterian Church. We
make room for one , passage , from
Dr. BardwelPs paper: " "
"Dealing simply with the doctrines of
the address, (and not with the author, for
whom we cherish an abiding confidence
and Christian affeotion.) this Presbytery
feels constrained to express its - hearty sym
pathy with the minority of the Board, who
entered tneir protest against the action of
tne lioara m refusing to' enjoin on Prof.
Woodrow not to teach his views on evolu
tion. We concur fully in the reasons as
signed in justification of the protest. We
regard the doctrine of the address touching
evolution1 as irreconcilable with the in
spired record of man's origin, history, and
progress, .we cannot accept the proposi
tion that evolution in any of its forms is
tLeoloeicallv colorless . because, (first) for
man created in God's image and after his
likeness, it substitutes either a beast or a
nondescript; (second) it either contradicts
the Mosaic account of the creation of Eve
or else digs an impassable gulf between
her and her liege lord.
There is a Professor E. W. Gil
liam who has an article on "The
African Problem" in the November
number of the North American Re
view. This is doubtless the same
person who left the Episcopal Church
in North Carolina two or three years
ago and is now teaching in a Catholic
school in Baltimore. Oar friend of
the Asheville Citizen says:
"The writer of the article referred to, a
Northern man, taking the view that the ne
gro race will go on to increase until it out
numbers the white population.
He is a nativo of North Carolina
and was born, we believe, in Oxford.
He was graduated at the University
of North Carolina, receiving the
highest honors.
It is thought that cheap postage
will have to go. Tfiere is a deficien
cy of $3,593,137 in the Postoffice De
partment, against a surplus of $2,
653,1 89 last year. We shall be sorry
to see postage go back to 3 cents.
Another year's trial should be given,
and then if it docs not catch up go
back to the old rates.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Again, the Current believes
it may say, with the authority of the
internal revenue reports, that in the
region which pays the greater share
of the whiskey tax that harsh scheme
of revenue is regarded with greatest
favor; and that region is Illinois.
That is in answer to the remark of
the American that "excise taxation
may possibly be the most popular
tax ever levied with the communi
ties upon which it is- not levied."
The Current is not a sectional publi
cation, and cannot be drawn into a
controversy of a sectional character.
In this matter of surplus revenue this
journal was dealing with actual facts
not wished for conditions. Chi
cago Current.
Blaine and Fremont are trav
elling together; They are the two
end men of the Republican party.
Fremont' was the first end man and
Blaine is the last. Both are un
, wortny. Fremont was caught up to
get votes for the party in its early
days. He was not fit to be President,
as his subsequent history abundantly
proved. Blaine represents the deca
dence and corruption of the party
he is the representative of all that is
bad in politics. Fremont was the
error of the. party's youth. Blaine is
the fruit of its corrupt age. The
party ends with a folly similar to
that of its beginning, but worse.

THE BLAINE CONSPIRACY.
New York World, Dem.
The Blaine Republicans, despair
ing of success in New York, have re
solved to -abandon the "State to the
Democracy and to apply the money
which was to be expended here to an
attempt to purchase New Jersey,
Connecticut and Indiana.
The new policy of the Blaine man
agers is easily understood. The great
business uprising for Cleveland and
the refusal of tens of thousands of
Republicans of the State to support
Blaine have made a revolution which
no amount of money can overcome.
But the electoral " vote of New
York will still leave the Democra
cy twelve votes short of an election.
New Jersey, Connecticut and In
diana are certain on an honest elec
tion to give their electoral votes to
Cleveland. The Blaine managers
believe that the money saved here
will be sufficient to buy those three
States, or at least that they are more
likely to win them than to carry
New York. ' -. .- J ,
The attempt to purchase New
York wonld consume ! every dollar
the Blame managers can raise. If it
should fail,. New Jersey, Connecti
cut and Indiana would assuredly be
lost and Cleveland would be elected.
Hence the determination , to give
up New York and to buy, ? if possi
ble, the three States we have named.

, Sab Francisco, Oct.f 28r-The steamer
Arabia, which arrived Sunday from China
and Jabau; brought the following addition
al details of the great typhoon of Septem
ber 15, which caused such a terrible destruc
tion of life and property., : At Yokohoma
andTokio the storm "came up soe rapidly
and with such' . tremendous fury "- that no
precaution could be taken. In Yokohoma
the entire lower part of the city, called the.
'Settlement.'' was completely wrecked; no
house was left "standing. The inhabitants
made no attempt to.save their property, but
fled for their lives to escape drowning from
the rushing waters driven upon the land by
they fury of the, wind. The newspapers
make no attempt to furnish the details of
the destruction in that part "of the city.'
They summarize by saying as the 'Settle
ment" was destroyed it is useless to publish
any details'. The higher portions of the
city being more exposed, were equally un
fortunate. Several of the largest and most
substantial buildings were swept away as if
built of pasteboard. In that section alone
128 houses were destroyed! and 890 dam
aged. The loss of life on shore was less
than at sea. Out of eighty sailing' vessels,
fifty-three were lost, with 223 persons on
board. Twelve vessels, with; 120 persons,
are sJeo. missing. ; Of five lifeboats that
went to the rescue of the drowning crews
four were swamped and ten men of their
crews drowned.' The typhoon was the se
verest experienced since 1870. -
