The Morning Star By WILLIAM H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Morning, Oct. 21, 1887 GENERAL AND PARTICULAR. The able and highly esteemed Lynchburg News, has another reply 'J. ri TTT a I to the Stab. We can assure it that the Stab never once thought of the v". News when it referred to certain ex tif ponents of particular views and ap- plied some uncomplimentary epi , . l thets. The particular instances are ; - -. not recalled by us, but they were not :;r .intended for the News or any paper in ; intelligently and fairly conducted. The ; ; speeches of demagogues and the absurd statements or arguments of V ' V some papers now and then so annoy v us that we are driven into descrip- tive epithets. The Stab has entire respect for those who differ from it ' l ;V on questions of Federal or State policy. It believes that the parties as now constituted contain so many discordant elements that it would be a most fortunate event if they could be reconstructed and parties be formed on principles, and not upon mere expediency. So long as the negro is used by the Republicans as eithera fire-brand or a factor in po- ,. - litical contests, there can be only one course open for the white people r ' v the genuine representatives of the -vl Aryan race to pursue, to take care V of home government, and to unite in " ; -I Federal elections in keeping out. of . -' power, as we believe in our soul, the . - most dangerous, venal, unprincipled ' party that bias flourished in the nine- teenth century. v5'ft vv: The Stau has never claimed for '. itself impeccability. It has very ; ; ; decided convictions, and these it i ' urges and upholds with sincere ar- dor, but it leaves others to judge for themselves. It presents its opinions v- and they can be accepted or rejected -;' Kby its readers. If they are right opinions, based on reason, fact, ex . perience, then they ought to prevail; , f, it unsound and unwise, and uhsus- tained'by argument, let them be re ' ; jectcd. A paper must have opinions, s or'it is without a mission, " its early -" eath-should be desired. It is in ; the way of better papers. The Stab .; ha8 long held the views on economic questions which it has presented from time to time. While ' it be lteves in their -correctness; else it - would not uphold them, it has never K, thought of questioning the honesty or rights of others that hold opposite views, it has sought to . fight what ;.,it considered error by presenting the 'trutlu "' ' - ' . ; x O nr ' esteemed Lynchburg contem porary has some opinions with which we are" not agreed. It believes in Protection, we think, and in the abo .lition of the tax on spirits, beer, to . bacoo, oigarB, wines, &c. We oppose lC both. .But it. has never occurred to uus for a monieht to question the.hoh estoithe'lofithe V fine abilities.- It"' believes that 'the llepuDlican; I --t, still favors I -ctnat tax. partyitas 4itiaaan2tiie comrades in "crim ThftvnnV. as.c : -1 an fi.Vif n -- L.l BandaJl COines to' Boston to the meellnir of ZVZ-i.t'' nexvweejerne-may . endeavor lo explain us the ; indications were, the other 'tisMiWnowiih at some of the leading Massachusetts - political., pay ers gardedtthe deliverance of the -Republican lal&rm8 wiping out of tbd Internal tax. ;; W"e have again and again seen opinions from the Republican press and speak-:. era favoring the abolition of the In ternal system, and they were frank enough to admit that it was done for the purpose of getting rtd of the Tariff agitation and to stop "the Free Traders," as they are always pleased to characterize the Tariff re formers. But if the Republicans favor the retention of the needed tax, as the News insists is the case, it shows that they are wiser in this particular than that portion of the Democratic party; which is 6o clamorous for "free chaws" and "free apple-jack." So long as hundreds of millions of dol lars remain to be paid to the Federal pensioners; so long as the interest on the vast National war debt is to be met annually; so long as the immense war debt itself remains, or one dollar of it, there is need of all the taxes on the luxuries, many of which are need less and are hurtful, and should be retained. This is what the Stab preaches. It holds more: that the best system is the direct system. This is Mr. J. R. Tucker's opinion. But we need not argue the point. The News and the Stab see questions dif ferently, through different media and from opposing staading-points, but both have entire respect 'for each other and concede the fullest right to hold particular views in all char ity. The Stab must return its hearty thanks for the most flattering notice it has probably ever received in the thousand that have fallen to its lot. While we feel how undeserving the praise we are none the less profound ly grateful. If not to "our faults ex ceeding blind," it is surely to our supposed virtues "very kind." The Stab adds, that with Mr. Car lisle, it nas Deen willing to allow a r x of the 8 ct8 d tax on chewing and smoking tobacco if -it should become positively necessary to make this surrender in order to plicate that marplot, Randall, and thereby secure a severe reduction of the enormous tax on the commodities of life and have many of them put on the free list. But the Stab be lieves that it is unfortunate if such a surrender or sacrifice has to be made. It believes that there is great neea 01 .ne $.o,uuu,uuu aerivea irom ataxnotoneent of which is paid -1 AVrrx.v. 1 0 by the raisers of tobacco. It be lieves that it is better to retain the Internal tax, change the plan of col- lecting and make the needed red no tion by cutting down the unbeara ble and absurd War Tariff. Bnt we are done. LONDON LIBOR TROUBLE.. The disturbances in London are of I a kinto 'excite uneasiness on the part of the citizens and the Govern ment. When large crowds of work ing people without employment gather in squares or march in pro cessions with riotous intent, or de monstration, and this is repeated from day to day, it shows that there is an element of discont ent that may break out into disorder of a very se rious character. Socialism has a great deal of ready material at hand in jondon and the larger cities. There are so much misery, suffer ing, dissatisfaction and hopelessness among thousands of the lowest clasB j in a great city, and there are so many people without work and even food, who would earn their bread if they could, that the propagandists of er ror and violence find the tinder ready for the match. When Anar chists go among them land in fiery and exaggerated -language depict their sufferings, wrongs "and the in equalities in the human lot, they find ready responses, and under the hatred and despair, a spirit of re venge and. recklessness springs up and violence "is the one resort. Such demonstrations as those in Trafalgar Square are damning, bnt they are not without certain aspects that appeal strongly to human sym 1 pathy. Hungry men, without hope j of betterment to the perpetration poor sufEer wimneia., social misery sure to beget social crimes. The harangues of Anarchists are not the promptings of benevolent hearts that go out in great and active sympathy the . breadless and - ? homeless. are only using the hungry and ring as a means with which' to terrorize JSovernment , y ewUy plungo in- pl.B8ible, untmii M,ietnt Keonbl xtf wnDg The cinandhai beei and the hand of relief is 1 gresses.

A "gallant, manly, foe "who conducts war, not as the Vandals didjjbutaB Christians shoold, must "always command' the. admira tion of all who revere valor and duty conscientiously and nobly performed. I There were Yankee Generals Sheri dan, Sherman Kilpatrick, Hnnter and others of that "stripe who waged war like Indians and dis graced the uniforms they wore. Of Northern soldiers , none commanded more of the respect of Southern men than Gen. George G. Meade, of Penh-vlvania. He was hbt of the first rank in generalship, but he was I a faithful, able, well -poised, success ful commander, and had a character for probity and humanity that com mended him to the high considera tion of friend and foe. The New York Times says of him: "On the peninsula, under McClellan, he had been severely wounded. His advance ment had been steady until be became Commander-.n-Cb.ief, aod after Gettysburg he continued in charge of tbe Army of tbe Potomac throughout the war and until that army ceased to exist, 4thus about equalling in tbe period of his control of it all of its previous commanders combined. - But his tory will more especially associate hia fame with that great struggle of the first three daya of July, 1863, upon and around Ceme tery Ridge which ended in the repulse of the most formidable of the aggressive move ments made upon the Northern States." Two or three daya ago an eques trian statue to him was unveiled with appropriate ceremonies at Fairmount Park, Philadelphia. Such a soldier deserves to be commemorated in the most imperishable material. As long as the story of Gettysburg is read wilt his fame be preserved. The beauties of the British Life Tenure system are being constantly revealed. It now appears that Mr. Oberly, of President Cleveland's Civil Service Commission, actually holds the doctrine that when a man accepts a Federal office he loses his citizen ship, and that when he becomes one ( ' T r. . of the Life-Termers m Washington I 1 I j. 1 - rt. . I he must abandon his State residence. This theory would make him a "man without a country and an elector stripped of his rights. Into Buch ab surdities is the British theory already plunging its advocates and adminis trators. Bureauocracy is not an in digenous production of the United States, but an untimely exotic It should soon wither when transplanted tnnnr libortv-lnvinw -nil and win . - ,1.1 an American sun pours us ngns upon it. The story of one Stain that the N. Y. World published concerning the murder of Cashier Barron, at Dexter, Maine, is the talk in the North. The murder is not recent, but occurred nine years ago. It is freshly worked up by the sensational World. We did not read what purported to be the confession of the younger Stain. It is said to be not of much value or reliableness. It had been offered to other papers and declined. The matter will be inquired into by the Courts and possibly Maine will tret rid of some very bad people. It is the manner of dishing up the sensa tion that calls forth Northern criti cism. We have' not noticed that it is denied that there is a solid basis j ? facts in the alleged confession. The Wilmington Stab says that James G. Blaine, as Speaker of the House, did as much as Sam Randall to defeat the Force bill, 'That may be true, but time : has proven that the motives which prompted him to his coarse were of an entirely dif ferent nature than those which inspired the" conduct of Rsndall: Montgomery Dis patch. - .

Thy have already done harm by vilifying the. city while the contest" is yet undecided; their success at the polls would great ly amplify the evil by seeming to in dicate, in the eyes of the country, that our own people believe the "re formers" and want. their services to rescue Baltimore from the alleged abyss of corruption, fraud and vio lence of which we have heard so much lately. Were the contest waged strictly on the issues that d Wide the people into two great parties, Demo crats and Republicans, the good name of the city would not necessarily be involved whatever effect the result might have from an economic and purely party point of view. But it is now asked to go republican on no party iesue, but only to vindicate the truthfulness of a half dozen men, who affirm that it is a sink of iniquity, corruption and rowdyism, "governed by the criminal classes." That is the confession Baltimore is asked to make at the polls on the 26th of the present month. A more astounding and impudent proposition was never made to a sane people. Baltimore Sun, Dem. TIIE TOBACCO TAX Memphis Appeal, Dem. Some Virginia Democrats are very anxious to have the tobacco tax re moved as one means of reducing the surplus. They argue, and with a sophistry that would do credit to the original Sophist himself, that the farer9 deand thl8 in'der that . ' iney may De relieved trotn tne grip of the tobacco monopolists of Rich mond, who are only five- in number. These, it is claimed, by reason of their wealth, are able to pay the tax, whereas the small dealers cannot, therefore the farmers must sell to them. This is absurd upon its face. A dealer in tobacco is not called upon to pay any more tax than his dealings amount to, and up to that I point many of them can be fair com I Ptitor8 of the monopolists. But that aside, the tobacco erowers can. ftt ft ti redreM thr m' of mononolv bv rfnhhin tf K, - ' . ... o and sending their tobacco to the small traders, who can easily find bank accommodations equal to the amount of their purchases. But this story is not true. Tobacco, like every thing else, is worth just what it will bring, tax or no tax. This can be ascertained by the relative value of raw and manufactured tobacco. This a aAr;' .V-s- VVr ' ST TCI story of the monopolists is all sub- I terfuge and nonsense. The tobacco grower is not affected by the tax, and it should not be repelled. If it is, it will be a confession of weak ness that will work to the injury, pernaps tne defeat, of the Demo- cratio" party in 1888. Jt will be a case of the tail whgging the doer- Randall and his little handful of fol lowers legislating for the whole Democratic party. It will be a cow ardly and base desertion of princi ple. The internal revenue should stand as it is, and the Democratic party, with, the Tallying" cry of: 'The, poor man's necessities first," should enter- upon the next cam-' paign. Under the banner of a "free breakfast table" there is certainty of victory for tbe Democrats. The re peal of the internal revenue will work its defeat. Ttie Star's Most Flauarfnc N otleo.
