The Republican party saw a pow erful secret oath-bound conspiracy rise up, based on the prejudices of the old slave system it saw de fenseless citizens molested in their homes, put in terror for their lives and their property, and the laws ignored and despised yea, saw these citizens scourged, mutilated and put to death, and the Republi can party rose up In Its might and hurled the Ku Klux conspiracy to the earth, and vindicated the ma jesty of the law, and tht people urithout regard to party iy it did what teas right. The party opposing l!ie Republi can party, with all its power strove to destroy the Union and set up a slave confederacy. It failed, and the people say it was a good thing it failed. The party opposing the Republi can party, worked hard to have laws passed to mete out justice to citizens according to the color of their skins. It failed, and the peo ple say amen. The party opposing the Republi can party, made a mighty effort to regain possession of the national and State governments through Ku Klux organizations and lawlessness and assassinations. It failed, and the people everywhere rejoice at the failure. The people cf North Carolina will bo called on during this year to choose between these parties, officers to mako and execute i the laws of the State. They will re member the past and choose wisely. ranks, battling for equal rights to all, the liberties of the people, the education of tho masses and the preservation of tho organic lawf tho land. 7? Hobby Horses. s jvij' Resumption. ... :, 'Wltti this issue, we resume the publication of The Tri-Weekly "Pm- It has been remarked by friend ana enemy, tnat tidieka was the 'best campaign paper that appeared on either side during the Convention campaign, of 1871, and the State and Presidential cam paigns of 1872. Parties who con trib uied largely to the columns of The Eba during these campaigns, are contributing now, and will continue to do so. Every department of the paper will be worked up to a first class standard. We are determined to deserve and achieve success by the merit of the paper. We ask the co-operation of our political friends throughout the State. If they will rally to our support as they did in 1872, success is assured. We shall use every endeavor dur ing the campaign which is now upon us, to wrest the State from the control of the Democratic party ; and nothing shall appear in these columns calculated to disturb the harmony of our party or sow seeds of discord in our ranks. With this brief statement, we cast our banner to the breeze, and again call upon the party to rally to our support. Tri-Wetkly Era, 2th inst. The .Republican Party the Par ty of Right. The Republican party staked Its all on the preservation of the American Union. It Kived the Union, though it waded through blood to do it, and were a ballot tki;n t-day In the Southern States, none but white men allowed to vote,' nine-ton t ha of tlw . who supported the cause of secession would, vote that Uie lUpublican party teas right in its devotion to the Union, The Republican party saw that slavery was, and would ever con tinue to be, a source of strife be tween the States of the Union, and It plucked out the thorn in the na tion's side, and the whole irorld says it did right. The Republican party saw four millions of slaves suddenly freed without money, without lands or homen, without trades, without education, and without the expe rience or business knowledge to en able them to provide for them selves. It took them by the hand. instructed them in their rights, implanted In their minds a desire for 'knowledge and encouraged them to. become good and useful citizens, and all unprejudiced minds cill say it did right, ' jThs; Republican " party saw that It would be unjust to make one set of laws for ono ; class of ; its citizens and another set of laws for the gov ernment of, another class, and so it extended full and equal rights and privileges to all Its citizens, and the On tbe Fence. The leaders of tho Democratic Conservati ve-all-rerspecLibil i ty par ty entertain grave fears that a great many of their former supporters are now sitting on the fence politi cal, with an eye to the main chance for a soft fall on the Republican side. We agree in these fears, and our friends will not be required to look very far for reasons to account for a great falling off in tho vote of that defunct party in the coming campaign. The men who have brain and moral courage sufficient to think for themselvis and have an opinion of their own, are getting tired of tho deceitful, treacherous and ruinous policy of their party of dead ideas. A short season of rule has shown the people what to ex pect from a party without princi ples or a platform, opposed to the general government and to every progressive idea of the times ; a rich man's party, with no respect for the rights of the people, opposed to the education of the poor man's CniMrCtl, and tild together only hy their hatred of the colored race, the common people and the Republi can party. It has deceived the peo pie to get into power, and betrayed them when in. Not an act marks their legislative course in lS70-'l-'2 to redeem the pledges they made in the campaign of 1870. In 1872 they gained a majority by their gerrymander of the State, hy the cry of retrenchment and reform and by a promise to settle the State debt; or acknowledge themselves " perjured villains." Four long years, and their pledges unredecm ed ! The last session of the Legisla ture may be taken as a fair index of their course and what may be ex pected of them in the future. Even their leaders are disgusted, and when they adjourned not one word of commendation could be said by the Democratic press, except that their last act (adjourning) was the best of the entire session. Hat the Virginia affair is the best indica tion of the animus of the party. Gov. Kemper vetoed an act of the Democratic Legislature amending the charter of the city of Peters burg, which has a Republican ma jority, taking from the voters the right to ay who should govern them, and vesting it in a clique of their own, making the city an Oli garchy. Their late idol and leader in their election had tho manhood to veto this arbitrary measure, and now there is nothing too mean for the Democratic papers of Virginia and North Carolina to say of Gov. Kemper. It is not our place to eu logize Gov. Kemper, but we are; glad to know Virginia has a Gov ernor, though a Democrat, who has So much of the true mettle of states manship and manhood, and who can cloe his veto message with this remark : "And if the path way of duty ha!i be lighted with the blaze of my burning efligi.es, nevertheless, I shall tread it with an unflinching step to the end." IIa3 this thing been attempted in North Carolina? Yes! the Demo cratic Legislature has attempted it in several cities, particularly in j Wilmington, under tho name of cumulative suffrage, but have been beaten in every instance by the votes of the people. Where will this policy end if they should get the power to carry their designs into effect? If they can and do thus tamper with the rights and liberties of the voters of a city, why not extend their power to a county and thus to the whole State? It is time the sensible, thinking men of this State wcregettiqg tired of this kind of policy and to be on the fence, yea, into tho Republican De gustibus non est desputandum. Th is, Lawrence Sterne in his Tristam Shandy, says, means there is no disputing concerning hobby horsesj and then he launches forth on a treatise on the subject, in which he treats with appropriate remarks the pads upon which several ride. His eccentric Uncle Toby undoubt edly had a steed of this genius, in the wound he had received at Nainur, and he rode him upon ev ery and any occasion. If any cne doubted the existence of his hobby, he used the argument of the phi losopher to the sceptic who doubted the reality of motion, viz: He got upon his back and rode him about, leaving the world after that to de termine as it saw fit. He does this mounting and riding all through to the last chapter in the book. We have a great many Uncle Tobys in our day aud time, and tho hobbies aro innumerable,; but the most prominent in this Shan- dean pastime are our friends of the Democratic party. They keep a stable of old jaded, wind spav ined, broken down studs, and without the least intimation of a doubt from any quarter as to their existence they saddle them up and away they go, riding with more zest and parade than did the re doubtable Uncle Toby Shandy or Don Quixote and Sancho Panza in days of old. The favorite steed with them is the "nigger," and they have trotted him cut so often, rode him so much an.d so long, through so many cam paigns that he is completely "stove up" and ready to be condemned as a worthless horse for the future. This is a wonderful animal, and at times has grown in their eyes to the dimensions of tho great Persian horse by which troops were carried into the city of those under siege, sufficient to capture it. Democratic liniment is a wonderful concoction, and the old horso may be suffi ciently patched up this Spring to carry them through the Summer's campaign oa a make pretense, os tracising, scare-crow, brow-beating A A canvass, out-tnis wm De tneir lasi ride on this old nag. They have recently traded frr a new hobby, but the unpleasa.it t! isagreetnent over in lticnmonu na.s somewnai crippled their design of making the Suinn&r rido in North Carolina on the "white man's party." This is new hobby pony with roached main, ootainea irom ineir menas inVirginia, sired by the father of the stock in North Carolina, but he has caught the Republican mange of justice, equal rights to all and local self-government while in Kemper's stables, and they may not be able to doctor him up sufficient ly to go before tho people on yet awhile. He is, however, in the train, and will be rode at some fu ture time, hence we announce his grand entry into the political arena, although the programme for the circus show has not yet been arranged. Next in favor is "Billingsgate," with which they charge upon every Republican with all tho courage displayed in the memorable attack . m m m . 1 a on tne winu mm ny tneir wen known predecessor in knight errant ry ana generally with tne same results.

The change was made with - the hope that by altering the time o holding these elections, their friends might defeat the Republican nomi nees, as it was their impression that there would be fewer Republican voters in cities and towns in May than in January, the colored people being employed on farms generally at tha t time, and temporarily away from their homes. At the present time we believe municipal elec tions are held all over the State in May, with two exceptions Wil mington and Fayetteville. The change, however, has not brought about the result anticipated. These May elections this year wil inang&rate the summer campaign ertA Jrt rt Iffllo f m rtnrt fl.rwA In ettiyfrulibeartening or animating the two apolitical parties in the Stite, and will have " no little influ ence in the August election. Hence ibis, the enemies of the Republican party exhibit such Interest in these elections all over the State. Ac Jcnowledging the weakness of their political cause, and devoid of those principles which would render their party cohesive, they aro quick to seize upon any local pretext to dis tract and divide us, and eagerly mount any hobby likely to enable them to ride into power. In strong Republican localities, these gentry preach compromise and magnan imity, exhort our friends to divide the Offices and talk much of consoli dation. In some places they mount the Temperance hobby and propose a mixed ticket. In others they talk of" Reform," and would fain make Republicans believe that the interest of the community cannot be sub served without a mixture of De mocratic officials. It is noticeable however, that in communities where this hybrid crew are in the majority there is no talk of magnanimity, Temperance, Reform or a mixed ticket ; We would caution our friends to beware of ail these tricks of the Democracy. - Let us stick to our party organization. It will not do to divide our .forces on the eve of the grand political battle of this summer. If reform is needed, let us have it within our own lines. It is poor, reform that will .let our enemies into power.' We will then tataXR&rtn" with a vengeance. If our Temperance friends desire fo have a voice in the government of the various towns, let them attend the nominating - conventions and select the men they wish. Every good Republican 'will compromise on local issues inside the party lines, to promote harmony and concord, but let us have no compromise with Democrats. Every such bargain will result in injury toour organiza tion, and will surely be felt in the general elections of August; and this is exactly what these pseudo reformers are aiming to accomplish. Beware of them, and spurn their affiliation. the most becoming grace and spite. This is a blooded hobby horse, aris tocratic and royal. She is almost exhausted, but still is made to tug away in vain attempts to pun tne Democratic chariot out of the slush and mire in which it has been stuck for near fourteen years. The efforts of late have been almost des perate, the old wheels creak but will not budge, the late "Solomon Legislature" has sunk them deeper, and still the lash is applied as well to those who attempt to alight a3 to the exhausted hobby, to make still one more effort to drag the riders out of the sjuugh into place and office. This is the celebrated spike team of Democracy, and while we might go on to enumerate other, these are sufficient to convince our read- ers tnat mere are noooies in me Augean stables, and we would no for the world have any one to doubt it, or we shall be tormented with those awkward riders on the same old nacs. Would it not be well 1 1 for our Democratic friends to try home new hobby, and let these old liosinantis rest a year or two? Can they not give us some new riders from their side of the house, start anew, clean out their stables and The State Debt. ml Via j T" xne aeDt oi xsortn uaronna is very large, and we continually hear men saying the people of the State can never pay it. They dwell long and talk loud about its enormous some of them figure ud much tax it would take on each person in the State to pay it. size, and how Gov. Kemper's Veto-Tlic North -r Carolina Legislature. Desiring to obtain ,control of the city of Petersburg, and not having sufficient Votes to succeed at a pop ular election, the Democrats of that city carried their contest into the halls of the Legislature, and had a bill passed divesting the Republi cans of the government of the city and placing it in the hands of the Temocrats without the semblance of an election or appeal to the peo ple. Popular suffrage was ignored and trampled underfoot in the rabid attempt to grasp power which could not be had at the ballot-box. The rights of the majority were ruth lessly thrust aside, and the minor ity representing the "F. F. Vs.," and defunct slave-oligarchy were placed in power. At this juncture, the bill was sent to Gov. Kemper for his approval, and lo I and behold, Gov. Kemper is not a fanatic, a demagogue, nor an execu tive who respects the rights of his political friends and utterly disre gards those of his political enemies ; therefore, the telegraph of the 12th inst. brought the following: "Richmond March 12. Govern or Kemper this, morning sent a message to the Senate vetoing the charter recently passed for the city of Petersburg, on grounds that it is antagonistic to the fundamental principles on which our institutions are based, and that it is inexpedient to pursue a course calculated to dis turb the growing confidence between both races and sections." Here is a Democratic Governor a Confederate General who vetoes a pet Democratic measure, because that measure is " antagonistic to the fundamental principles on which our institutions are based, and that it is inexpedient to pursue a course calculated to disturb the growing confidence between both races." Sound doctrine, and the bill denounced as containing pro visions ' calculated to disturb the growing, confidence between both races and sections." Now lookm this picture : The Legislature of North Carolina, at its recent session, passed an act allow ing voters to be challenged on the day of election, and requiring the challenged voter to prove, by the oath of some responsible person, where he lives, who he is, and all about him. This act was Intended and is " antagonistic to the funda mental principles upon which our institutions are based, and will dis turb tho growing confidence be tween both races and sections." Kemper is Governor of a great State, made so by a majority of his people, the Legislature of this State hold, their seats by virtue of the terror of the Ku Klux inspired in 1870, and by the gerrymander of 1872. Kemper Is imbued with the spirit of Popular Liberty the Leg islature of this State is imbued with the tyranny originated and exer cised by the Ku Klux. Kemper will be sustained by the whole country ; the Legislature will be held in utter detestation by all fair minded men -they already stink in the nostrils of the entire people of the State and in August next they will be buried with tneir faces downward-indicative of him whom they served so faithfully for the last two years with this inscription upon their backs : The lineal de scendants of the Ku Klux Legisla ture of 1870 in life they served with fidelity the keeper of the infernal regions, and in death they are not divided ; and the clods upon them will be so deep that the hand of resurrection will never reach them. In this verdict future generations, as well as the present, will say : Amen. In the righfc direction, and we were near enough to see. We are sure we should have seen as big a thing as 'fmagnanimity" if any such thing had been 1 there. We didn't see anything however but proscription But these illegal Democratic boards were ousted, anl we saw the Republicans again in power, and we looked with the same eyes and we saw very t plainly ; what every bodyj declared was "magna- nimity.jWe saw persons retained in profitable places who had no sympathy with or claims on the Republican party, but we've never seen a specimen of real Democratic magnanimity outside a lunatic asylum, and we don't believe such a thing ever existed. j Buiublinsr in the Mountains. ; f Two years ago, during the Con vention campaign, it will be recol lected that Conservative papers just before the election were in ecstacv over the enthusiasm the "Deputy Governor," tL J.

Scientists look for a crater to open at some one or more of the highest peaks of the Blue Ridge, and thereafter Western North Car olina can boast of a veritable vol cano, as Iwell as "tornadoes of wildcats."- If these Conservative journals of 1871 spokej truthfully, what an awful responsibility rests upon Mr. Jarvis. j Principles, Not j Men. The Republican party is a party of principles. Those principles are well known to all. It is founded in patriotism and requires undoubted loyalty to the national government, and equal and exact protection' for evjery Ameri can citizen. It holds that all gov ernments jflerive their powers from the consent of the governed, and that the object of government is to, produce the great3st jgood to the greatest piimber. The carrying into execution o these principles is necessarily left to the members of the party. If offi cers have been chosen by the party who have ishown a faithful adhe rence to principle, arid proven themseives in every way com pete at to discharge tho duties of the office entrusted them, let the party rally as one man and sustain those officers. But if others have shown more love for office than for principle, or if they have been weighed in the bal ances and j found wanting in integ rity in the qualifications necessary to fill the office with credit to them selves and the party, let not the man stand in the way of principle. Let him drop into the ranks, or, if need be, out of the ranks, and let the Re publican host march onward under new leaders, but under the old flag. i iVovo in swottciii .
