Lessons of the Late elections.
It only exhibits on the part of the
Democratic party a total ignorance
of the wishes of a vast majority of
the American people when the as
sertion is made by its leaders that
the re is the remotest prospect of the
administration of tho government
U-ing turned over to those who but
ii few years .since attempted by a
l,hKxly war to disinember the Uni
on. Whatever deviation from Re
publican principles may have taken
place in the last two years on ac
count of local and side issues, the
jreat masses of the people are sound
to the core, and will not, for many
years to come, consent to aain en
danger popular government by
transferring power from the hands
of the party that saved our glorious
I'nion to those that unsheathed the
sword for its destruction. The les
sons of the late State elections may
1. sad ones to the Democratic party,
hut they are such as the loyal peo
ple of the country had a rht to ex
No matter how local issues
may for a time cause an apparent
change of sentiment, whenever tho
lime approaches for a national con-t.-t
it will be found that the popu
lar heart will beat in unison with
the great organization which saved
and proposes to continue intact our
nati-jiutl unity and credit. Nobujr
!.ar questions, sprung upon thS
people for demagogical purposes,
-an drive them from their moor
ing. They know that the Repub
lican party is loyal, they know that
a large element in the Democratic
party is not. We can therefore safe
ly assert that the great idea upon
which the Republican party made
uch a successful fight on the second
instant was a contemplation of the
near approach of the presidential
rontcst. The people everywhere
throughout the land are looking
earnestly forward to the grand event
which is to settle tho political status
f.ir four more years. That it will
le settled in favor of that party
which has controlled our destinies
so successfully for the past fifteen
vcars there can now be no reason to
doubt.
The lite elections prove another
fact, and that is, nn unwillingness
of the people of the country to cast
a stigma in any manner upon the
means adopted to defeat the rebel
lion. Tho Democratic party have
ever been sore upon the reflection
tint to the Republicans belongs the
credit of directing the pecuniary af
fairs of the nation so effectually du
ring and since the war. Unable to
obtain revenge in any other man
ner, there are thousands of Demo
crats, especially in the South, 4ho
would willingly see the credit of
the nation, put forth for the salva
tion of the Union, seriously crip
pled if not totally ruined. These
gentry doubtless harbor the idea
that if the war debt could be repu
diated another chance might at
some near future be afforded them
to risk an encounter for secession.
The late elections have shown, how
ever, that the people of this nation
lire true as steel upon all questions
involving its honor, and that they
will in no event encourage Demo
cratic trickery and dishonesty.
Now that ve have so much en
couragement, let us in North Caro
lina go to work with a will to place
our good old State within her proper
moorings. Let us show the nation
that she will not be behind in ad
vocating such measures as will re
dound to the welfare of the whole
people. Let us throw off the
narrow-minded and sectional views
of the so-called leaders of the South
ern Democracy and adopt such
id'-as as will best promote the pros
perity of our entire country. In
short, let us consign to oblivion
the petty schemers who are actuated
by hatred and disappointment rath
er than genuine love of conciliation
and good will, and let us, above all,
strive to place North Carolina in
such a position a3 to command the
respect and confidence of our most
favored commonwealths;
X Democratic Falsehood.-
It is a common saying that com
petition is the life of trade, and so
it is In politics. If the strong weap
ons of truth were not sometimes
used to correct the falsehoods of the
Democratic newspapers and Demo
cratic leaders, the government
would soon go to destruction and
the people to ruin.
The News has lately been showing
its regard for truth by stating that
tho public debt has been increased.
Of course the News did not Intend
to do justice to the -Republican par
ty, and made its statements against
official authority And now we
make our statements by official au
thority, and let the people see the
glaring falsehood of the News.
Wetiuoie from the official state
ment of the public debt of the
United States, as appears from the
books and Treasurer's returns in the
Treasury Department at the close
of business, October 30th, 1875,
which shows that the debt was de
creased from June 30th, 1875, to Oc
tober 30th, 1S75, $10,291,514.92.
This is the official statement sign
ed by B. II. Bristow, Secretary of
the Treasury, and yet the News, for
party purposes, has the unblushing
effrontery to state that tho debt has
been increased.
The Republican party has been in
power fifteen years. It conducted
one'of the most gigantic and success
ful struggles for national existence.
It has reconstructed and built up
sections of our country despoiled by
the strife. It has kept inviolate all
the pledges of the government, and
the late elections prove that it has
a strong and abiding claim upon
the hearts of the people.
On the other hand the Democratic
party, with its pretensions and mis
representations, succeeded a year
ago in gaining a temporary victory
in some sections. It immediately
adopted and carried out a series of
measures which became so obnox
ious that everywhere its banner is
being trailed in the dust. Repub
licanism can be trusted. Democra
cy is a sham. Let the people con
sider and choose between them.
The Daily News consoles itsalf by
the assertion, that in the late elec
tions the Democratic party repre
sented the honest sentiment of the
country. Now when we take into
consideration the fact that several
of the States which voted the Re
publican ticket at the recent elec
tions were under the control of the
Democratic party, it would seem
that the Neics is acting very un
kindly in calling its former allies
thieves and scoundrels. There is
much impudence in the assertion,
also, when we think of the action
of the Democratic members of the
late Convention in stealing two
members from Robeson county in
order to carry out their infamous
design. If the country has to de
pend upon the Democracy for an
honest administration of affairs,
God help us, we say.
41 Booth somehow we like that
name. Our recollection h some
what indistinct, but it sounds like
the name of the man that shot Lin
coln." Statesville Landmark, Nov.
8, 1875. O
The editor of the Landmark de
serves much credit for honesty of
expression. At least half the num
ber of Democratic editors in the
South would deny their sympathy
for the assassin, Booth, as Uiey do
their sympathy with the Ku Klux.
Perhaps the Landmark relishes the
name of Benedict Arnold ! If liv
ing, Arnold would doubtless be
"cheek by jowl" with all the ad
mirers of murderers and midnight
assassins. Rub up your memory,
"blr.ZLandmark, and parade other
names of equal infamy, as cherished
mementoes of the reign of terror
and blood, since the war. Needn't
go out of this State canvass the
namesofthe elite of Caswell ; per
haps one equal, to Booth may be
found there I
The remarks of President Grant
to a party who called at the White
House to serenade him a few days
sincearefull of encouragement to the
true men of the nation. President
Grant generally knows whereof he
speaks, and when he makes the dec
laration that the Republican party
will rule the government for the
next four years the people may rest
assured he does so advisedly. Let
Republicans everywhere take en
couragement. The signs of the
times are brilliant.
DanielS. Morrison, John T. Pope,
Alexander Humphrey, and Henry
F. Pittman are the Robeson county
commissioners who furnished the
bogus majority in the late Conven
tiona majority who, being them
selves stolen, essayed to steal away
the people's rights. The Republi
can member of the Board had his
dissent spread upon the minutes.
He respected the popular will. The
Republican party Is the people's
party.
The Asheville Pioneer concludes
an ablo article on the late bogus
Convention, as follows:
"We have not time to speak of
mm a -
xne utter snameiessness displayed
in the organization of the .Conven
tion, when the sickly looking
swamp-rat from Tyrrell county de
fied the express will of the people
and by voting for himself made
good the conspiracy. Nor,' of the
Robeson county outrage, where the
candidates defeated by the people
were seated by the Convention, and
went home with wages of sin in
their pockets. Nor of the refusal to
remove Gov. Holden's disabilities
by the escaped kuklux, who sat on
the floor forgiven of all their weigh
ty transgressions against Jaw and
Gospel. Nor of tho ten thousand
and one other mean things they did
or attempted to do. These we will
go over at another time. "Whom
the god3 would destroy they first
make mad," was a favorite saw
with the ancients; and carrying
out this, our friendsof the dark lan
tern have put off the vote on the
Constitution till the November
election in 1876. Then will be felt
the hot breath of a great popular
vengeance long pent up against this
Democratic jafty then will our
centennial year close amidst the
rejoicing of freemen and the wail
of disappointed oligarchy, equal
rights will be respected, cheap gov
ernment maintained and the new
Constitution voted down by 20,000
majority.
God speed that day of full deliv
erance and perfect triumph. Breth
ren of the Republican press, let
your shoulders be put to the wheel,
right now.
Let this Constitution be made
a by-word and a reproach from the
sounds to the mountains. Let the
agencies by which it was spawned
be shown to the people, its lack of
agreement with our new civiliza
tion commented on, and the black
future which will follow its ratifi
cation held up as 'twere in calcium
light."
We call attention to the Procla
mation of Gov. Brogden, setting
apart Thursday, the 25th inst., as
a day of thanksgiving for past bless
ings, and we hope the day will be
observed in a becoming manner.
Ransom, Spake and Hassell, the
trio of infamy, seem to have sunk
into utter insignificance. "We neith
er read nor hear of them. " Wrhat
a fate awaits the traitor who," &r.
Dangerous Concessions.
Unquestionably, popular educa
tion is an important plank in the
Republican platform. That our
common school system receives no
detriment, rests as an obligation
upon that party. T do not assert
that the Democratic party is, as a
party, hostile to the public schools ;
but it is obvious that education is
not a leading interest with the De
mocratic party, and never has been,
and that all the opponents of the
common schools are in the Demo
cratic organization, while the Re
publicans have in their ranks none
but friends. The Democratic party
is frantic for political power, and
has the reputation of not scrupling
at the means of getting it. In a
desperate struggle for office, it
might possibly make dangerous
concessions to its allies against the
schools a thing which the Repub
licans could never do, though for
ever excluded from political power.
The political alliance between the
Democratic leaders and the Catholic
clergy has two objects. On the part
of the Democratic leaders, the ob
ject is political power ; on the part
of the clergy, it is a radical change
in the constitution and Conduct of
the common schools, or their aboli
tion. Judge Tajt.
Mr. Salter, United States Consul,
described the interior of China along
the course of the River Yang-tse-kiang
as a wonderful land, and full
of mysteries. In one place, he says,
piscicultural nurseries lino the
banks for nearly fifty miles. All
sorts of inventions, the cotton-gin
included, claimed by Europeans
and Americans, are to be found
there forty centuries old. Plants
yielding drugs of great value, with
out number, the familiar tobacco
and potato, maize, white and yel
low corn, and other plants believed
to be indigenous fb America, have
been there, he reports, cultivated
from time immemorial.
Free trade is one of the demands
of the Democratic party. Work
ingmen of America, look well into
the merits and disadvantages of
free trade, and ponder ere you cast
our suffrages in favor of the party
that is its chief sustainer. Remem
ber that you will be bitterly depriv
ing yourself.of the necessities and
comforts of existence if you advo
cate a reduction or nullification of
the tariff, for you will place an in
cubus upon native labor that can
not be shaken off.
The dominant party in the days
of Jefferson demanded equality
before the law of all white men.
The Republican party of bur day
demands equality before the law of
all men. How strange it is that we
Jiave to contest with a party calling
itself Democratic, for the right of
all to have equal opportunities to
rise and be a man the equal of other
men.
A popular writer, speaking of the
ocean telegraph wonders whether
the news transmitted through th
sa U water will be fresh.
The Iatc Mrs. Ruffin.
Mrs. Ruffin died in Hillsboro on
Thursday last, aged 82 years. She
was the daughter of William Kirk
land, of that town, who was a
princely old Scotch merchant, and
sister of John U. Kirkland, Mrs.
Judge Strange, Mrs. McRae, of
Fayetteville, and Mrs. McClester,
of Georgia. She Was the admired
and beloved wife of the late Chief
Justice Ruffin, whom she married
at an early age of girlhood, for she
was only fifteen, but twenty in size,
manners and mental maturity. She
was the mother of thirteen chil
dren. A more exemplary woman
in all the relations of life never
lived. As mother, friend, neigh
bor, relative, and mistress of slaves,
her example and life will long re
main a lesson and a pattern to be
imitated. She lived for years on a
fine estate on Haw River, where
she dispensed a generous and ele
gant hospitality to the many friends
of her distinguished husband, and
to strangers who passed along the
great thoroughfare upon which she
lived. She was a devout Christian
and a member of the Episcopal
Church, and did not show her re
ligion by formal observances, but
in private devotion.
No fond husband ever had a more
devoted wife ; no children more af
fectionate, provident mother; no
slave a kinder mistress, and no poor
neighbor a more charitable friend.
Her like and life will not be seen
again. In her end the grave had
no victory and death no sting.
