The Ooinion of The Editor and the Opinion of Others which we Can Endorse on the Various Topics of the Day. THEY WILL UNITE. Tno Wilmington Messenger says that it may be r.tcersary for the Democrats :ind ItepublieJiis to unite, "to join shields" to prevent the reforms demanded by the people. Now the great rank and file ofthe .lain hard-working people of the Dcmocritic paily and many llepub Iicans are demanding Ihee reforms. Then what part of tlese parties does the Messenger speak for? Hartcely for the machine (lenient of these parties. Of course, there are many good men who are at present opposed to those reforms, that do not belong to the machine, but they are suffer ing witli what all mortals are liable to be alilicted with at times preju dice. Yes, they are prejudice against teforms because they have not in vestigated them, and then, too, they are so patronized and cajoled by the machine that they do not see the machine. This shows what we have often asserted, that the machine ele ment of parties have no political prin eipUs lor their guide. They fight for spi ils and for selfish ends. Yet there are the "patriots" who will be called upon to "join shields," to fij;bt the great mass of the people. We had expected this, but did not expicttosce it announced so soon. In shorf, Dr. K ingsbury has acted indiscreetly in giving the thing away. Th.i bosses had bettei muz zle him ! IT IS HOW ONLY A "MERE FISCAL REGULATION." The Charlotte Chronicle says : "Our contemporary would leave the impression that Democrats have the same right to differ about the government owning the railioads as they have about the tariff. This is an error. The principle is just as different as is the constitution and an act of Congress. The one per tains to the fundamental structure of the government, ihe other to a mere fise.U regulation." Then this great question, this great issue between the parties, is a "mere fiscal regulation," a simple matter of detail, a mere trifh;! O these times, O these editors, how they do change! This is alarming, if the leading issue between the par ties is nothing more than a "mere fiscal regulation," then tluy are getting closer together than wo want them. There is danger of things getting mixed. If this is true, is it not high timo that the Democratic party was adopting some of the principles of the Alli ance that "pertains to the funda mental structure of the govern ment," so that it wi 1 not lose its identity and can make a fight on some issue that contains a principle, on something more than a "mere fiscal regulation?" We protest Hgainst this. The Chronicle should not refer so lightly to a matter so grave. We trust that the Chronicle is not letting down the fence pre paratory io its going over to the Republican party. As the fight on the tariff is now conducted, ve ad mit that it is simply a fight over schedules, a fight over slight changes in "mere fiscal regulations." But wj protest against this sham battle, we want to see a real, battle a bat tle on princii le, for ther-5 is a great principle involved in this tariff question. The Alliance is opposed to the tariff in tcto, it is opposed to the tariff because it is wrong in principle. A "tariff for revenue only" is just as wrong in principle as a tariff for protection. The tariff is wrong Decause it taxes what we consume instead of what we possoss. It does not tax the rich man in pro portion to hi3 ability and duty to pay it does tax the poor man be yond his ability and duty to pay. It is discrimination, it is class legis lation, it is i piece of abominable in justice. The only excuse for a tariff for revenue only, is that it is neces sary to raise enough money by some means to run the government. Is there a man in America who ia in favor of raising enough revenue to support the government byasystem of taxation that is unjust, discrim inating and oppiessive to the poor and the wealth producers, and at the same time not only releases from just taxation tho rich,-but in addition gives them a bounty col lectea irom the poor v can any party afford to go on record in favor of such uniustice and robbery!? If there is no just method, by, which taxes can be collected to run the government, then popular govern ment is a failure. If the Democrat ic Daitv can not devise some such system then it is unworthy and un Ot to rule. Yers let the tariff fiht be made on princip'e. If it is wrong then let us fight it as a wrong. And there will never be, mark it, any rmiterial or lasting reform or relief from the tariff till the fight is made on principle. Yes, the fight on the tariff mast be made from its ethical side. Then and not till then will we see who are real tariff reformers and who are those engaged in the sham battle. There is no use For speakers t di.-scu3 this question longer before the people. The people are for free trade. The so-called leaders need to be educated up to the people. Let the speaker who does not believe this, try to Interest his audience by talking about tariff reform and he will have h'A vanity hurt by finding that he does not cli-it much enthusiasm or apxIausc. The people are edu cated on this question. They want to hear speakers disCuss other great economic quo-tions on which they want moie light and about which they are also greatly interested. The speakers who are not i: formed on these questions had better fday at home. It would be belter for him and the party, and he certainly cannot do the cause of reform any good. We sympathise in advance with some of the men who will try' to speak to audiences this summer and fall. The audiences will know more than the speaker, arid the last state of that speaker wid be worse than the first. THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM- The platform op the Republican party is clear and exact in only two points. It represents the leading issues ha' re I for the South, high taxes for the poor. It spaaks forci bly for taxation for tho farmers, uu . chanics and laborers, exemption fo r the rich. High taxes on t'l ) nocjs saries of S) pj. cj.it of t!v? pjopl-.', low or no t ixes o l the rotn iuulor. Oil the financial question tho equal of any of t!io lea li:i jc issues it is either silent or so coafmod yo i get no idea of what it vW. t s i. Its plank oa Silver is a grarl fuve and a deception. It wis wnttji, but for one parp se to d.53 Siv j tii i people. Wall Street, dictitrl th it plank. It is simply a sht I lie, but. leans rather far toward a g 1 1 st aa dard. In fact It is in fivor of gold, but wishes to catch th ; silver v lo. The Richaio vl (Va.) Disp it-j'i siys of it, and of what tho 1)3 nojr tts .vill do : Yes, that silver resolution was in tended to have a double- nuaoinx one for Wall Street and the other for the people at large. It was not pen ned for tho purpose of expressing the real opinion of the men who made it, or of the patty for which it was meant, but to mislead tho sil verites throughout tho Uiiioa. tVe do not know that the Damocra ic National Convention will impiove upon the Republican sil v-er pla.sk, but we think that our candidate and our creed should be consistent toe one with the other. It we nomi nate a silverite let us style him one. If we nominate an anti-silverito let us style h'v- one. THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEES. Benjamin Harrison is the nominee of the Republican for President of th 3 United St ites. Wo are not sur prised. Ho is in reality, what we call, tho logical candidate of the par ty born in war, fostered on war is sues, and to day hopes to gain the election on such issues and high tax ation. The nomination of Mr. Har rison distinctly emphasizes the poli cy of the party hatred for the South, high taxation for the poor. He is the nominee of the champion of tho Force bill. Wo would have been glad to have seen Mr. Blaine, the "great unrewarded leader of his party," nominated. lie is friendly to the South, and would have guard ed her rights. But he was opposed to the Force bill and was defeated. Shame it is, that a party, over a quarter of a century after the war is over, should nominate a man for its high office because ho hates one sec tion of the country engaged in the war. This is not a campaign of dead issue. The live one are too impor tant. Mr. Whitelavv Reid, nominee for Vice-President, is too, a typical re presentee of the wing of the party which nominates him. lie will not fail to add luster to its principles and ingeniously and enthusiastically carry out its teaching. The character of the niiii. the platform upon waich they stand, and the policy of those who nomi nated them, is separately, distinctly and jointly against the interest of the people.

With his jndonii'able " will i:nd constitution of steel, he seemed to have the promise of still a score t-.f years or more. About i. wtok ago he was taken suddenly ill and confined to his bed. A physi cian was summoned, whoaid that he suffering with a serious afftction of the bladder, and that his condi tion was djubtful. Mrs. Polk and his daughters of Raleigh, and other relatives in North Carolina, v.eie summoned to his bed side in Wash ington.

We maintain that the prosperous condition of our country is largely due to the wise revenue 1 gislation of the Republi can Congress. We believe that all articles which cannot be produced in the United States, except luxu ries, sh uld be admitted free of du ty. We denounce the efforts of the Democratic majority of the House of Representative to destroy our tariff laws as is manifested by their atta ks upon wool, lead and lead ores. Wo point to the success of the Republican policy of reciprocity. GOLD AND SH VER. The Republican paity demands the use of both gold and silver as s andaid money, with such restric tions and under such provisions to be determined by the legislation an will secure the maintenance of the pairty ot the two metals. PURITY OE THE BALLOT. We demand that every citizen of tho United States shall be allowed to cast one free and unrestricted bal lot in the public elections, and that such ballot shall be counted and re turned as cast : that such laws shall be enacted and enforced as will se cure to eveiy citizen, be he rich or poor, native or foreign born, white or black, thH sovereign light guar anteed by tho constitution. The party will never relent itseffoitsun til the integrity of the ballot and purity ot elections shall be fullv guaranteed and protected in every btate. (SOUTHERN OUTRAGES. We denounce the continued inhu man outrages perpetuated upon the American citizens for political reasons in certain Southern States of the Union. FOREIGN RELATIONS. We reaffirm our approval of the Monroe doctrine, and believe in the achievement of manifest destiny of the republic in its bioadest sense. MISCELLANEOUS. We favor efficient legislation by Congress to protect the life and limbs of employees of trunsporta tion companies. FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND PRESS We declare anew our devotion t j liberty of "thought and conscience of speech and press, and approve al agencies and u strunentalities which contribute, tn thn education nt'ttio children of the land, anti-trust. We reaffirm ur opposition, de clared in the Republican platfjrrn to all combinations ol cap ital organized in trusts or otherwise fo control arbitrarily the condition of trade among our citizens. FREE DELIVERY. We approve the p jlicy of extend- i .g to towns, villages and rural com munities the advantages of the free delivery service now enjoyed by the larger cities of ihe country, and re- affirm the Republican platform of a 1883, pledging the reduction ol lut ter postage to one cent. TERRITORIES. We favor the adniist-Ioa of the te- niaining territories at tne lamest practicable date "having due icuard If cd to tho interests of the people of the territories and ot the United States. 1 THE COLUMBIAN exposition. ihe World's Columbian Expos: - ,;nn u a roat Nat:!i?il uiidvit.kin?. fir I i 1.1 1 c ...:n . .it ..- .!.- , ijyu.-ui iuwiu Ruir . ui.-.ii..i;iiis i the expeuse and obligai ons incident thereto. - -PiJ:SIu8. , ; Ever ir indl'ul of the. servicet and sacrifices ot the men who saved the life of the "Nation" we pledge anew to tho veteran soldiers of the Re- . public a watchful eare and recogni- for tion ot iheirju-st claims upon a grate- lul people.

This illustration in the In ventive Age indicates the appear ance of the vehicle. The moior Is mounted on the front axle, and works at a thousand revolutions a minute. Upon a level .rule It in said that a speed of from ten to fif teen miles an hour can be accom plished. Theeteering apparatus and brake are readily operated by the person in charge of the vehicle. The iuventor of the storage cells used in supplying the current claims that, while weighing nearly two thirds less than the ordinary accumu lators, they are equal Incapacity of other cells of similar era, and may be ojte rated economically. There I? apparently a great future for electric carriage, but whether the one illustrated will fulfill .11 the conditions of a cheap and efficient means of propulsion, future experi ments alone can determine. -Ex, , . m - WHEN AND WHAT TO ItEAlJ.
