Let all our conservative, intelligent citizens let the truth be known about these matters and at the ballot box onr eitixens will sound the death knell of the party that thus seekj to deceive them. It is the duty of" the Democratic executive committee of each township to provide a box and appoint judges so that the Democrats may express their choice for United States Sena tors for both the eastern and western districts of the States. This is a matter of mneh importance. The Democratic representatives will be instructed by the Democrats of the county. Let every Democrat vote his preference without fail. Don't overlook this matter. It is impor tant. Vote for a man who will be true to yon. No man has yet uttered a word of complaint against the Democratic ju diciary in North Carolina.

To the Pcojileof North Carolina: Fxi.low Citizens: For many years past I have been in the habit of vis iting jou in person during every im portant campaign and addressing you upon the political issues of the time. L-Being on this occasion prevented this- privilege by tne condition of mj health and earnestly believing thai the question to be decided by our Novembef cleotiou are of vital impor tance to the public welfare, I am in duced to contribute, in this way, my share in the discussion of them. I regard the situation, as most crit ical. Since 1860 the legislation of onr country has been almost exclu sively within the power of one politi cal party. Naturally it has ceased to be general in its beneficence and has become local and partial in the ex treme. The law-making power has become the fearfully efficient imple ment of suoh classes, corporations, cliques and combinations as conld by fair means or foul obtain control of it. It has been made to subserve purely personal ends In divers ways the taxing power of the government has been perverted from public to private purposes, and moneys livied thereby to enrich manufacturers, to suppress rivalry in business, and, in every con ceivable way, to help the favored few at the expanse of the many. Tho varied corrnpting influences upon the business world arising from this legislation produced their natural effect. The classes whose business was thus favored, flourished apace, whilst the unfavored have experienc ed in the midst of peace and plenty all the losses and hardships common ly felt only in time of public calami ty; and the extraordinary spectacle is presented of a nation whose aggregate wealth is rapidly and vastly increas ing whilst the individual wealth of its chief toilers and wealth producers U diminishing in proportion thereto. From the Republican party with its disregard of the limitations of the constitution and its natural depend ence for support upon the money of r.he people whom it has enriched', all of this corrupt legislation has proceed ed Without it. there was nothing! evil done that was done. It follows as an undeniable truth, that whoever directly or indirectly upholds, helps r supports that party is a friend to the corruptions which it has pro duced, and is an enemy to those who would repeal that legislation and re form the abuses founded upon it. There is no escape from this. The" Democratic party, on the con trary, believes in the strict limitations of the constitution, and has as a party steadily opposed all abuse of the tax ing power, or any other power of tbe general government for private pur poses; and has unceasingly advocated the most absolute and perfect equality of all citiiens in the legislation of our country. There is not a single wrong or injustice of which complaint is made in our laws for thirty years Ir the Bepublicans and Populists control the next legislature tbe Democrats will lose the United States Senate.

Lit the remaining days between now and the election be spent in ac tive, earnest work on the part of every Democrat. Much is at stake and it is important that we should win by a large majority.

Avtsr you have read Zeb Vance's letter take this paper to some honest Popnlist and ask him to read it pray erfully before he casta his vote. past, which can justly be charged to the Democratic party. Not one. It has ever been a breakwater against the tyrannical tendencies of the Re publicans; and, though in a minority, has been able to prevent some of the worst legislation ever attempted and to modify other laws which in their original iniqnity would have been in tolerable. This statement of the acts and purposes ol the two great parties cannot be truthfully denied Now, what is the situation? What is the manifest duty of our people n An in th. oominfir election? The two great political parties into which our people are mainly divided are once more in tbe field with their plat forms of principle and their candi dates. State and Federal, thereon. The Republicans profess all of their old doctrines from which have come the evils of which the people com plain; they glory in that abuse of the taxing power which has made a few rich and millions poor; and, seeking new fields of injustice and oppression, they openly declare their intention to take from the Slates the right to con- I trol the election of their own repre sentatives, which is the chief bulwark, of their rights and liberties. The Democrats reaffirm their adher ence to the constitution, the!r opposi tion to the tariff robbery, to banking monopoly and to corporate oppression in all its forms, and their desire to have the oower to control elections where it has resided for more than one l3drcd years. Piimarily, it would seem that no Democrat, and especially Southern Democrat, could hesitate a single moment as to which of these parties deserved his support. But a new party has arisen which in endeavoring to make people believe that the Democratic party is no lon ger to be trusted. The argument to prove this is a travesty on common aense-. that because for thirty years they have as a party steadily opposed all abuses and have not at any time been able to prevent or reform them, therefore is it no longer worthy of the support of those who deMre a re form. The meaning cf this is: 'the Democratic party hss been guilty of being in a minority. Its sin consist in not having done that which it oouldnot do. Then tbey in effect sav: "Let it be condemned; wnusi ... a-11 L.J the Republican partv, wnicn u the power and actually djd all these things, and still has the power to un do them and does not, is acquitted. Nay, we will help it to keep in power by betraying and destroying its only in the popular vote a large majority of all the people in the Union, being not strong enough heretofore to effect reform for which it has labored and wished, being without the Senate and Executive; they claim the only chanca for reform is to vu'e for the candi dates of this Third party, whose ex istence in the national government and power to control its legislation are evidenced by three or four mem bers of the House of Representatives and two in the Senate! But the leaders of this new party, falsely called the "People's," insist that you shall abandon the Democrat ic party how aad vote with them. I am greived to know that there are quite a number of our fellow-citizens in North Carolina who propose to follow that advice. It strikes me as the very extreme of unwisdom; and, when done with a full knowledge of the consequences, it ceases to be mere folly and becomes a crime. Our people know that under Demo cratic rule they have had good laws, low taxes, economy and parity in the administration of their sfftirs, and I hope and believe they will not light ly risk its overthrow by casting use less or hopeless votes in November. The class of our people who have had greatest cause to complain of vic ious legislation is the agricultural The party which has steadily resisted this, and continually declaimed against it on the hustings and have struggled manfully to repeal it io the halls of legislation is the Democratic. You will bear me witness .that unre mittingly since I have been yonr rep resentative ia the Senate, I have both spoken and voted against that unjust legislation. At home, as you know, never ceased to expose its inequali ties and to advise the farmers to or ganize to resist it. When they did begin to combine tbey had the sympa thy and good wishes of almost every just man in the United States who was not in some way the recipient of the plunder arising from this abuse Never was there a political movement of our people founded upon better ground, or more reasonable com plaint. But that which I feared and warn ed them against soon came to pass. Men who had little interest in' agri culture, and much interest in their own fortunes, aspired to be its lead- ers Ut-en men wno nai tailed o obtain officj from either of the old po litical parties, concluded to farm the farmers and raise personal crops of honor and profit oui of tbera. Tbey pressed to tbe front, thrust real farm ers aside and involved the Alliance in the wildest and most impracticable propositions ever heard ofainoo sane men; and. in defiance cf their uonsti tutioo soon converted it into a mere political party, composed of the dis contented and the disappointed ele ments of society, professing no fixed political principles or regard for the constitution of their country, but striving only to obtain the very worst of class legislation, which isx their 6ole idea of statesmanship.

The great buik of the crowd was Democratic-as was demonstrated by the applause with which the speaker was greeted. He said he had noticed that Populists did not attend Democratic speakings in suoh numbers as they did during the first campaign. He had been informed that this was at the request or orders of their leaders, and he just ly concluded there it something rotten in a cause which cannot bear the full light of reason and truth. The people should hear all sides intelligently dis cussed and make up their minds ac cordingly. His dissection of the tariff tax was so thorough, and its fallacies made to plain, that anyone who heard him and still believes it is a sham issue would be bu. little benefitted by any kind of relief other than mental He handled fusion with gloves off, and by the time he was through with it, it looked like (he gable end of mis fortuoe.

It has contin ued in power of the white people for a quarter of a century. It has given her solvent bonds. It has given large revenue from the rail road taxes. It has built school houses from the mountains to the sea. It has given a large school fund to sustain tbem without burden to the people. It has given our magnificently equipped State educational colleges and other State institutions. It has given the rail mad commission. It has given a self sustaining penitentiary.

'29 That the continued silence of President Cleve land concerning the New York cam paign is not pleasing to the average Democrat it is useltss to deny. True, it is not too late for him to say a good word for the plucky fight that Sena tor Hill is makiDg, but nothing that he can now say will, in the opinion of experienced campaigners, do as much good to the party in that State as a few words spoken earlier in the am paign would have done. Uuder or dinary circumstances it would not be considered necet-sary for tbe Presi dent to say that he wishes to see the ticket nominated by his party in any State elected, but in New York, even aside from the known personal rela tions existing between the President and SeDa or Hill, there, are peculiar circumstances which made sucj an ex pression of opinion desiraMe, not only tor its effet t upon the vote cast for the State ticket but to aid the Democratic candidates in the Congressional dis tricts. Although no stock is taken here in the claim of the government of Ger many that its decree prohibiting the importation of Americrn cattle and dressed beef was issued because there Texas fever in two cargoes of American caitle, lately carried to that country, the Department of Agricul ture has takeu to investigate the claim. If it be irue, aa believed, that Germany 's real reason is to re taliate, because of the differential du ty on her 6ugar imposed by the new tariff, somebody hc,s blundered, and tho blunder may defeat the intention, already expressed, to repeal that duty at the coming session of Congress.

Mr. Peffjr, Populist Senator from Kansas, introduced a resolution in the Senate declariog that "in view of tbe existing social and business conditions," the follow ing resolution was proposed: "That all revenues of the Government ought to be raised by taxes on real estate." Thus it will be seen that, while the Demosrats have been laboriog to re duce taxation on Und, and put it on daily bread, will ever consent to this stock, bonds, incomes and property I m ma? T 'k rC m. . degradation of their cause into the obsequious tool of unscrupulous, am bitious men, forfeiting the sympithy of all moderate people, and making the very name of Alliance to stink in the nostrils of jastice and commoa sense. I can but believe that the good judgment of our farmers v. ill en able tbem t0 see where their leaders are taking them, and that their native honesty wlll impel them to draw back in time to save their country. It seems to me, fellow citizens, that of the wealtuy, Mr. Peffer proposes to exempt everything from taxatioa ex cept land. As land is the chief prop -erty of the farmers, Mr. Peffer proves in this legislation that his friendship for them consists in desiring to place upon them all the burdens of govern ment, and exempt the bondholders and other Raleigh Nctcs ami Observer.

Ja t. true hiiu uunug his four years term he tonua dui one man guilty of perpetrating election frauds and that man was a Republican poll holder who begged so hard that he let him off and didn't prosecute him. Now bt the confesion oraiors get over this statement of Capt. Price if they can. rv ihat bv a verv small margin. The J J - u other five Congressi mal districts, he sajs, will be certain to go Democrat ic, as usual. It is difficult to see where the Re publicans are to make the gains nec essary to deprive tbe Democrats of the present large nnj )rity in the House, when the returns of the care ful canvasj mide by Democrats in ev ery seef'ron of the country, now being received by the Democratic Congres sional campaign committee, are studi ed. From Indiana, where the Re publicans have been claiming every th'Dg, comes the rtews that the Demo crats will certainly carry ten of the eleven Congressional districts carried by them in 1802. and had a good chance to carry tl e eleventh; from Wisconsin, whore ridiculous claims have also been made by Republicans, come; the declaration that the Demo crats will be certain to carry five of the six districts thev carried in '92. with a figh'ing chance in two other districts, and from North Carolina, where the Republicans and Populists have formed a fusion which at one time did look dangirous, comes the assurance that the logislaturp, which will elect two United States Senators, will certainly bo 1) jtnocratic, a nd that the Congressional delegation will be solidly Democratic, a gain of one member. Sjnator Faulkner, who, in addition to the knowledge he has acquired as chairman of the Congressional cam paign committee knows the district as the voters personally and thoroughly, says he regards chairman Wilson re election to Congress as being -well-nigh certain, and he would regard it as absolutely certain were it rot for the fear that large sums of money, which report says has been contributed by the protected manufacturers who are so anxious to defeat Mr Wilson, will be spent in the outright purchase ot votes. There is no law providing for a registration of voters in west Vir ginia, consequently the-e is some op portunity for the manipulation of a large crooked floating vote. Howev er, Senator Faulkner says this danger will be minimized by the vigilance of tho Democrats.
