It never has recognized the white mechanic or la Wing tnan at those whose rights and liberties ihey were bound to tespecU . U never has accorded to them the . right to be heard or considered. . They ire "centienaen and fallow-citltena lio ought rot to. lower; themselves' by toting, wiili niggers" before an elec iwii,sbut jujt wait until the elestion is over when they are basking io the ws ofthe ofSces tnat they had ob tiqed by browbeating, bull-dozing t'M fool i n ; white mechanics and la biiring ,tneu --iuto giving tbem, by j treats bfpuliiag the pressure on, and w cry of nigger," and the exploded !

Obserte ?&er0he ' , flection, when , they j Uve' obtained all they want, their . air of lofty disdain of the "poor white j .; tris&" and their repereminent turkey ! gobl'er strut which they keep uf until approach of another electioneer minds them that it is time to put pie - prwsure ua and love "nigger" again, say, "by their Iruita ye ahall kortw them;" and propose to give facts to. r6ve' our "aertlonf . IIow has it Wiiin this city ? i Well, in 1S7C wTien the Bouiboos of ihUcilv ronrhidwl to hav a tliant iVmocrstic Legislature pass a law ere "m; the lSoarU of Audit ana JJ inance sUkft was "to .consist o( one citixen rwuVesch of the wards of the city to M seriated by the Got. of the state, ol tbi Buurhou bosses got the con wt of jiho cuia?hs of the city to such I smeMure bymaklng the agreement nPe.bcraU. of the different trJ should hay the right to recom swniJ ib jr-oa who ahonld be a Knfel. , Tbe bill was passed, and in Kewdaftee with the understanding, tis Uemocratj were called together la different wards to select their men. Tos osly man aftioog the five selected so made his livlog by the swat. f a brow and the. work' of his1 hancU Mf.E: G.

CXftlU most popular ttf rtstitllire o ard as th majority of thelfeao- there were mechanics and Uhor ht Uke himself, and at the rty Wfj evMiUuted meetlej called to tcUnber of the IkMurdhe re .M'eterftote hutaooe fit e six, keuppoiatedf No, he wrap noli ctl by his ward by n Uvote, 'ct.Uafteement bt itl:i the beta rU the eaderstscstl cf U f 1 1 the bV.l, nsl:r BcsscriUa vx ' sUa they .taxis Ucil izlt CT ernment and practices the bios'; out rageoua centralization of power. Well every other man selected but the me chanic; was apjHinted. It was said tnat the representatives from some of the aristocratic wards refused to sit on the Board with him becanse h a "greasy , mechanic." In " his place was appointed the candidate who had received the few Totes that Mr. Barnitz- did not get, and Mr. B. who had been a zealona Democrat and an ardent worker fox it, was thrown aside and bis ward composed of free Ameri can citizens insulted by having their sovereign voice set aside and destroyed forsooth they had selected a mechanic, one of themselves, to represent them. ' AKD THIJ IS KOT ALL. The democrats of the First and Fifth Wards of the city are, as iswell known here, composed mostly of mechanics and laboriog men and their represent atives in this aristocratic Board of Fi nance, owing to the outrage above mentioned t were men, who, while not being men who make their living by the sweat of their brows were those who make no pretensions to aristocrats ic claims. In phort, they were men in what is called the middle strata of so ciety. , Rut this did not suit the aristo cratic tea party, ar d at . the last time for the appointment of the Board these two representatives were quietly ignor ed, notwithstanding the meeting) of their wards had just previous to that time refused to consider any proposition loo kins: to a change of them and in their places two Bourbons were ap pointed by Governor Jarvis without consulting the "poor white trash" of the words they were to represent in any way in the world. The representa tives, of the other wordVwere lot Inter fere with -a they were sufficiently Bourbon already. Such ii the Bour bon" disregard of the sovereign rights of Democraticio workingmcn. I AVD THIS Ii NOT ALL. f -After the last city election when the Bourbons bad beeu again successful, one of their first acts was to abolish the office of Deputy City Clerk and Treasurer, held by John J. Fowler.Esq. a gentleman of high character and at tainments, and a staunch Democrat, but whose native good sense and inde pendence of character forbid him to be a Democrat of Bourbon pretentions or proclivities, and who was not consider ed one of "our people." You will ask, was th salary of his position abolish ed? Oh no! not by any means.It was ... - added to the salary of the Bourbon City Clerk and Rreasurer, under - the guise of commissions On taxes, and a. faw weeks thereafter his son, a mere youth; was virtually in the position ;which had been abolished to get rid of the non-Boar boo Mr. Fowler, and thus what was a comfortable Jivieg for two men was given to one Bourbon so that he might live in . ease and - plenty, no matter if anti-Bourbous went to grass. . ' ' .. - I ;- ' AND THIS IS KoT ALL. The evidencss of that exclusive pre scriptive policy that has characterized the Bourbons whenever they had the power.' Next week we shall catalogue some more, as ; this article is already sufficiently long now. Whits men of North Carolina, how long are you go tog to stand this from thote who howl 'nigger" and make use of every means to get fat offices where they can air their divine forms in ease and advance at the expense of "poor white" vo- ten.. . ; f?:' s- '- .:, - This campaign is agsi ist just this ex closiveness which is getting greater and harder to break down every year and unless the liberty loving freemen ot North Carolina make use of the op portunity . afibrded by this campaign, to break the shackles or Bourbon in tollerancesaud tyranny, North Caroli na had better be set aside as a Bourbcn province JLTr. Alitor i Thm Democratic iartv are wise enough to discover that there is a white ssn' party in North Cirollna. AM they mean to say that color per m can make political principle, and that all the Dtmocrata,and only they are white men. It this declarations is true, the conclusion Is IrreaUtihlv that every nero who is a Democrat I as white man, and every white man who is a liberal or Republican must be a nrgro. A. tAro position the absnrdity ol wMca is dJsconred by the mere stattment of it. Do their seriously oeueve 4uw there is. or ought to bet, any polit ht between the races on accouat of ccdort If thty bellsve it it mast be fur same reason, and I can imatne nose usUss they entettaln the lafca tha r!ht to vote ousht to be denied to the esro, and I fcelltve that some white eta: who art Deaoertu, wtnua now ' as wUUry abrciU this rht which tie eobrtl -oaa.- rsta,. v.- 1 1 irV wur a the f astiM m the state constitution so as ia 'destroy the right of the free negro to vote, a vusoc, wnico tne democratic leaders say was immetet ral. Batthls is' not the sentiment of all tbe'white men, It is only the sentiment of that class; who were instrumental in bringing7 on the war, and whose ' condnct deluded this land with blood, widowed women and broke the heart of fond parents, whose gray hairs went down to ' ao untimely grave, mourning : for the 1 of t&eir sons, whose lives - had been sacrificed that slavery might be perpetuated. No this is not the sentiment of the brave men, who endured privations and faced dangers. Seventeen . long years; have Elapsed since the soldiers of Lea laid own their arms in Virginia and re turned to old North Carolina, for whose honor and glory they bad suffered and bled, and in this time, the passions generated by the conflict of armies, have subsided and - the nobler e iti- menta of Justice and humanity nave been substituted for hate and prejudice. Does the heart of the Democratic party make a responsive echo to these sentiments? If so, why were the peo ple robbed of the power to elect their ocal .officers, a power which .they pos sessed under the growth of Democratic doctrine. Why has that truth taught us by Democratic doctrine, "That all power is vested in and derived from the people" become obsolete? .Why . are aws made for the advancement of the' nterest...jof the one class ' of ; our citizens, and that the wealthier class, and the poorer class left unprovided forj and without' remedy ? Why are the children of the poorer diss left un provided with the means of obtainin g an educating, while, according to law, as it exists, the children of rich men can- obtain a HbetaT education at the public expense? - v f Why has , the Democratic platform been couched in sifch ambiguous lan guage that it is susceptible of any con struction a cross-roads politician may adopii to suit his purpoaeeT If the present form of county government is the best the can be devised; if under it our affairs can be most economically administered, then why not speak cutf like plain honest men and say so, in bo many words, iastead of declaring that they are not "wedded to it," and when the Change was proposed in the consti tution, why were the people deceived? Why was a tariff for Revenue only the proper view to take of the tariff question in 1880, when Southern Dem ocrats were so frantic for the election for the General of the Uuited States Army to the Presidency, and all wrong now ? What changed condition of the country renders it necessary to leave out 'only' and add "incidental protect Hon," what do they mean ,by 'incident cal protection?" t Xiow the people will no longer b ruled to ruin by any such party; there is an op rising by honest men all over the land and they say, tho we are pool we are free, and the shckles of slave ry shall never .be fastened upon us, we will crush out this misrule and BossUm. 4 A Poor White Man.
