Tht e facts undisputed present a critical Mtu'ttiou. Submission will tax to the utmost the self-control ot ti e daringly prevoked and justly m tl uant people. It is easy to ad v ie a disgusted protest, and couu- ! the ieatltr to leave the vindica tion of the purity ot the ballot box to time. What would the conserva tive, law-loving, god-fearing people in soith Carolina do under the same provocations It looked, not many moons since, that they might have a s.tnilar experience. No Southern Southern State fought so vigorously against the disruption of the L'niou as North Carolina. No State fought more ferociously, at the f xpeuse of human havoc, that, at this distant day, chills the blood thau North Car olina. Her death roll is the longest and her monuments should be tne tallest. What would her biavt, hoiu'. , patriotic people do if .sub jected to the Alabama ordeal? Hap pily the peril has been averted. It should be the subject of profound thanksgiving. ALL EVES ON THE SOUTH. Northern Sentiment is slowly re aWing that the revolution iu North Carolina means a petmanent rup tute in the South.

THE MACHINE AT MORE DEVILTRY. Coxcorp, N. C, Nov. 14, '94. Ed. Caucasian: Our Democratic Board of Commissioners requires our Populist Treasurer to give over 13, 000 more bond than they required the Democratic Treasurer to give Tbey require our Populist Sneriff to i n ta n noil tti t-r& Knn than they required the Democratic Sheriff to give. This is hard to raise. They could not beat us at the boxes and they are using tne machine to defeat the will of the people. This machine must be crashed. G. THE MACHINE AT WORK.

C, Sow 12, '84. Eu. 'aivasia, Dear Sir. Fraud is rife here. I've been confined to the bed from Tuesday evening to r rmay night most ot the time. At Summersville Precinct the Kegis trar living 22 miles from county site, carried the books to Jacksonville Monday evening and resigned. We got on and had another appointed by the Clerk. The Sheriff sent Dep ucy and the late appointee could not be found (out of the wav on pur pose) then we had to go back and get another appointed aud notice served on him aud before the polls could be opera d it was half nasi twelve o'clock Tuesday 0th. Then we polled 50 Populist and 5 Demo cratic votes before .sunset. This place was thrown out because we could not open noils at 7 a. ni. Two other plaees (llcinocrattc) one open- ed at 8 a.m. and the otlarlla. m . ..m "oi lutow oifiu out- that wr a. hnr of an,,.U, 1... t Swansboro they took the electio . .

One man would not iro ni there and thev appointed a ig norant negro. e eot a count there of only 2 to 4 votes. At Jackson ville one of our peUholders name was strieken from the registration books and the other was a few mir- utes behind on October 27th and we lost both. We kept a tally at this place until we polled ol votes. Our man laid his poll-book down to step to the door and his poll book was stolen. We ortly got a count of 27 votes there. So you see how things went. H. E. King, Chairman. ROBESON COI'XTY. The Flection in Thl County wa Rotten. All of Ihe Candidate Will Content and Sliov. u.lhe Frauds. Ib Blue Springs the Populist sus- pected that fraud would be commit- ted and their votes counted for the Democrats consequently they decided not to cast their votes, but keep a list of the names of all those who voted. According to their count only 102 persons voted a! that place. Ihe official returns gives a Demo cratic majority of 250 votes.

This place has witnessed many strange scenes lately, put perhaps none stranger than that of the gathering at the opera house last night- It was a meeting conducted by Demo-, crats in the interest of the Republi - can State ticket, ihe .meeting was presided over by a life-long Demo crat, the mayor of thts city, and the principal speaker was a Southern Democrat. They spoke from the same platform with the Republican catnlidate for Governor, and wIhIm uVdarini? adherence to t.rincinles and traditions of th nartv nf their choice, pronounced themselves read v to vote for the men who will give to the State the stauding before the people of the world that it once had.
