Thubsday Mobning, Nov. 24,1887
poverty and slavery.
The South has less money by a
very great deal than the North has.
In fact, the South is quite poor in
this world's goods and barely shabby
genteel as compared with the pluto
crats and bosses in the rich North.
But the South is poorer in other
things than in money and splendor
of show as compared with .the North.
It has far less of splendid misery and
gilded sin and decorated vice and
; squalid poverty and languishing un
; f ortunates. It has but little pauper
ism and no "white slaves" now. A
long time ago some one Corbett it
may have been published a volume
on "The White Slaves of England,"
the people who delve in the mines a
thousand feet in darkness beneath
the earth. There are white slaves in
New York. The Sun says there are
between 40,000 and 50,000 sewing
girls in that vast city who have to
toil at starvation prices "sewing
a shirt and sewing a shroud"
to borrow the idea and words
of Tom Hood, though not in
their proper arrangement, per
haps. So poorly paid are tens
of thousands of this class that the
dens of pollution are kept supplied
with their victims, and the number
of persons dependent solely on their
needles is increased annually, thus
making more difficult the struggle
for life the battle for bread.
. The South, thanks to a benignant
v; Providence and the character of the
-ppeople, knows but little of this source
T;.; of. corruption and this form of ex
. v-l--.' .treme destitution and dependency.
;t l.There is vice and thera i nnvsrtr
T. J
and there is suffering and there is
hunger in the South; but no one
mL.. A- A- . rv -
ueeu w starve or steal, ine very
- poor and the helpless are cared for,
and those disposed to work can
generally obtain a place.
After all the distribution of favors
lis not so unequal as many believe!
The South is really populated by a
: different race as Tourgee saw and
; , 18 guided by motives and principles
hat are also dissimilar to those pre
" -' .vailing in the more populous centres.
' It has less greed, less invention, less
, love of intermeddling, less money,
"V". ess influence, less vice, less crime.
jess omcial patronage.
But then it
has td compensate more love of truth
. wuw uu iair aeanng; more
, ; glory; more unselfishness; more re-
- S gard" for fundamental principles;
more pure statesmanship and, we be
lieve from all we can hear,- see and
' V- 'ead, more religion of the Bible sort.
SHEBnARiS STJRPIiUS PLAN.
- in our notioe of John Sherman's
"plan of a campaign we did not refer
w nia grana scheme of getting rid
Of the surplus. ; It has a dbubleTad
J vantage: it is both - Unconstitutional
ana unjust, xhere is no authority
i voungns peopie nwy or
hundred millions in excess and' then
distributing to the States j and jitnak
log them a present -ofV the millions.
Tberejisl 'jtfej? julo?tinJexcluding;
twelve Stated as Sherman proposes
when fedistrTo plape:
He proposes tq limit the" distribution
to the number of States in the Union
in 1837, His ideas of justice are aa
strange as his ideas t of .honor. He
has availed himself of opportunities
afforded as Secretary of "the Treas
ury and as IT. S. Senator to grow,
very rich more than a million
and that too, on a Balary that keeps
honest men like our Senators poor.
He now gravely proposes to take
from the Treasury a great sum raised
by taxation and for speci
fic constitutional purposes, and
to distribute it among the
States that composed the American
Union in 1837. That this would be
unjust; nay, that it would be miqui
touB no one will doubt if he only re
fleets. Why should twelve States be
omitted from the distribution list
when they have contributed so much
of the great sum raised ? No one
but a fool or a knave would think of
making such a proposition.
Mr. Sherman is too keen-scented a
politician not to have known long
ago that the surplus was wrong and
that it would have to be stopped.
He has not chosen to combine with
the Democrats to put an end to this
unwarranted raid upon the pockets
of the people collecting moneys for
the support of the Government (such
is the plea) when the Treasury is full
to repletion, and the trouble is what
to do with the great excess. But
Sherman seriously suggests his plan I
plus, and, in doing this, to take from
certain States moneys to be distribu
ted among other States. And this
is statesmanship in the eyes of John
Sherman. Among honest and fair
men it will be regarded as base, un
just and rascally.
MEMORIALS OF GREATNESS.
May Black Clayton, daughter of
the late Judge Jeremiah S. Black,
has published a volume of reminis
cences, of her father, together with
two speeches of great interest one
on the relations of the State and
Federal powers; and another on Rail-
roac monopoly, ut course we are
interested in this publication as we
are in all that concerns the fame and
personality of one of the greatest
men of his time of one of the ablest
lawyers and statesmen of this conn-
try. Judge Black was a master with
the pen. At his death the ablest men
admitted his greatness in statesman
ship and at the law. His published
works are a treasury of profound
thought, wise admonition, splendid
invective, corrosive irony, and mas
sive eloquence. They are a monu
ment of great powers wisely directed,
and of his love of virtue, country and
political honor. He would have made
a great President, a great Chief Jus
tice of the U. S. Supreme Court, a
great Senator, a great Cabinet offi
cial. We honor the memory of this
noble, honest, candid, patriotic, trust
worthy, staunch man this illustri
ous American. He is one of "those
simple, great ones, gone forever and
ever by," we fear. We doubt if such
men are bred now; men of the pro
foundest convictions; of sincerest
manhood ; of noblest aspirations and
ideals; of thorough devotion to prin
ciples; of unswerving integrity and
entire manliness both in life and mo
tives. We cannot recall in the South any
such destructive forest fires as are
now raging over a great area. The
accounts represent great loss. The
extent of the damage already done is
not definitely known, and the fires
are still raging with unabated in
tensity. The long dry season has
rendered it possible for these fires to
extend with exceeding rapidity, and
it seems to be' almost impossible to
stop their lavages. One of thi an-
noying features of calamity by fires
. . J J
is that so many of them are the re
sult of sheer carelessness or devilish-ness.-

Editor of the Star: It appears
to me that all who are acquainted
with what has been attempted and
what has been accomplished in the
way of internal improvements in this
State; as well as the different roads
under contract, and that seem likely
to be soon constructed cannot fail
to see the importance and necessity
of haviog the North Carolina and
the Atlantic and North Car
olina Railroads united and operated
as one road from Charlotte to More
head City under a lease, with all
necessary and proper restrictions for
a term of Dinetv-nine years to the
Richmond & Danville Railroad.
All who are well posted as to what
is doing and will soon be done, can
not fail to see that such a step should I
be taken at as early a day as possi- I
ble. If this is not done, I cannot I
see how it is possible to prevent I
great and lasting injury being done I
to the roads in question and to many I
of our towns, cities and to the State
generally.
l am largely interested in our
railroads, and I have been driven to
this conclusion from stubborn facts
that have been forced on my. at
tention.
If we wish the above roads to con
tribute the greatest good possible to
our people the consolidation and
lease should certainly be made and
tnat at an early aay. sucn was tne
design of those: who first projected
. rl .a
the Central Railroad from Beaufort
harbor to the Tennessee line, and
their purpose should be carried out,
and can only be done by adopting
the plan I have suggested.
Time and experience have conclu
sively demonstrated in this and most
of the other States , and that . at the

---It has been said that the re

would put an end to the aspirations
of Senator Sherman for the 'Fresi-

Kepublioan party win oe put upon
its mettle in selecting its next Presi

fit man nomination for the great
office, and there are few men in the
oountrv so noted as Uov. foraker
who 80 incapable. The Republi-
oan party IS very muon aisoruereu iu

When Bob Taylor-put him
self up for Governor of lennessee
there was sentimentalism enough in
the State to elect him, just because
his brother was the candidate of the
minoritv party; but in view of Bob's
nop on ine larirx ana jiair um propo

Plaintiffs bad sued defendants on
their bond to indemnify the sheriff
for seizing certain goods, and de
fendants moved to remove the action
from Lienoir to riancombe county,

Held, That obligors in a bonl of
indemnity are not entitled to have
the cause removed under the statute
Perry vs. Peterson.
Held, Where an order of sale made
by the late Court of Pleas and Quar
ter sessions in a proceeding to sell
land was irregularly made, and it
becomes a matter of inquiry whe
ther the purohaser at the sale had
notice of the irregularity and such
inquiry is not fully made, there
should ba a new trial to ascertain
the fact.

In cotton certificates there has been fair an
1 im&tiaa and a general firm . tone, wkh. still
another addition made, to values.- An In
spiring feature appeared to be found in the
cable advices, in response to our advance of
yesterday,- with, some orders frpm , Liver
pool, keeping offerings within narrow lim
its and the desire of shorts to cover and go
orer the holidays ( with - engagements pro
tected. The absence, of anything to fully
contradict the Government estimates and
comparatively light receipts, with strong
Southern markets, also helped tbsatluation.
The advance was 10U points, from which
a small set back took place,-but the close
remained pretty steady all round..
