MAIilSG A. lllitO CI f Of NIMS,
The deed of John- Sims, the
Mecklenburg murderer, is shocking
in the extreme.
His unconcern and reyelry in his
eat notoriety are marked t and are
being made very conspicious by the
newspapers. They publish his in
sane, cold, bloody remarks and chuck
over it until Sims thinks himself a
hero. He never was so happy.
There are other such crazzy peo
pie in the world; and this holding
up of Sims and quoting him and
thrusting notoriety upon him, iB
calculated to make some other fool
U6h out upon the stage and become
a like hero.

It is necessary to reopen the mat
ter relative to the slanderous articles
published in "Over Sea and Land,"
a northern publication that serveB as
a mouthpiece for South slanderers.
Mr. Edward F Green, who is gen
erally retarded at the head of Sun
derland School, an ex-English cab
driver, and whose early life the pub
lic may be thankful it does not
know, issues a seven-page conglom
eration of lies and idiotic flights,
which he is pleased to call "Kindly
Giye Us the Season Why."
Jfacta are such and truth is now
so known that whatefer I haye, in
the past, seen fit to say, by word or
pen, concerning the said English
man, is hereby recalled in full.
have, in order to advertise the school
and to keep its progress and aotiyity
before our people, sought opportn
nities to say pleasant things and
publish those contributed about said
Green, believing that the poweis
that sent him here knew his nature
and his character. I have known
for some time that be was not the
brains behind the school, but simply
the drayman,' "errand" boy the fac
tolum, sojto speak. Men filling such
positions can, under favorable cir
cumstances, be truthful, just and
even high-toned. This seems to be
an'exception.
The tone and sentiments of said
Green's paper indicate that the ar
ticle was put into existence by
a fool,a liar or a knave, or all
three. As such the paper needs no
reply it answers itself. There are
certain statements, however, made
by this Englishman, that call from
me a statement. They are of a per
sonal nature, and our readers (every
one of whom have been slandered by
Mr. Green) will kindly hear me.
Were it tot for these I would not
dignify this English carbuncle on
society with a ventilation through
these columns.
1. Being suspicious that the ar
tides might be published, Green set
about to stop it bo, he says. In his
paper he makes use of the following
words : "I went to Concord and ap
aproached the editor of The Stand
ard, but he said he knew nothing
of the matter." I wish to say with
all the meaning of the words in full
sway that if Mr. Green waa intoxi
cated, he was too much so to know
when he was speaking to the editor
of Tee Staxdabd; if not intoxio
cated, he deliberately penned a falBe
hood. That ureen callea on me
about the publication of the articles,
ia entirely and absolutely a lie.
2. Green quotes a quotation from
The Stand abd of May 20th. He
hasn-gense enough to know that
item about compulsory
education was copied and
was merely a jocular item clip
ped from the Philadelphia Times.
He is entirely ignorant or ia so anx
iouB to make his case strong that he
will resort to any kind of a malicious
scheme.
3. In reference to the city schools,
Green, after other things ,says : "I
some time ago asked Mr. Cook to
give me an " introduction to the
Principal, who happened to be near
at the time. Mr. Oook pointed
him out, said that he was no good
and advised me not to try to meet
him, and I have not met him to this
day." I want to cut a long' story
short by saying that this statement
is an unmitigated Lis; and Mr.
Green, if he has an ounce of gray
matter in the red contrivance he
carries about on his English shoul
ders, knows that what I said could
not be si rained into his words, ex
cept by one with malice in his heart
and one who Bought to' profit by
arraying one and his friends against
another. For the benefit of those
whom I respect and whose friend
ship I value I here state what was
said : Mr. Green was asking about
the Graded School. I told him it
was crippled for want of necessary
funds ; that the Board had to elim
inate the superintendent, employing
only one male teacher ' and Afce - ao
tively engaged with one grade.
When asked about the principal I
stated that Mr. Shind was a full
graduate and that those who knew
him well regarded him a scholarly
young man, with an unusually
bright intellect, though this was his
first experience with Graded
Schools. Mr. Shinn may congratui
late himself upon the fact that he
has not met this ex-Englith cab- i
driver, who, coming among us,'
sought to break down the barriers
te social equality. This is the man,
who invites colored men to his own
dining table. He offers himself up
a livine sacrifice to the cause of
missionary work in the South to do
this he is said to have forced white
girls under his care to sit and dine
with his colored laborers. What
think yon, Caucasians you, who
are willing to resent insults to your
section, to your mothers and sisters?
4. The whole spirit in Green's
article is intended to make it appear
that the newspapers of Concord are
fighting hi school, and that they
are carrying out a deeply planned
conspiracy. The Conoord papers
have always spoken favorably and
have given some of their best efforts
to welcoming these people and aid-,
ing them in their work. No one
knows better than Green does that
this paper has always treated him
with the greatest consideration.
When those wilfully malicious
articles were published, we even
sought to defend Mr. Green, not
once believine him so blind, so
mean, so slanderous and so lacking in
truthfulness to haye written them,
or instigated the writing of them,
or so lost to honor as to espouse
them.
Ureen is so thick headed and, in
derorto slap our people in the face,
appears to be innocent of intelli
gence enough to understand why
the slanderous articles were pub.
lished in the Concord papers, and
sets about to create the impression
that the Concord papers have a con
spiracy on foot .to destroy these
charitable schools. - A Jackass,
could he read, could understand
the articles as a defense of this sec
tion and our people and as no attack
upon the schools or the work, yet
Green innocently and idiotically
asks "Kindly Give Us the Reason
Why."
5. Green reproaches us on the po
sition North Carolina holds in the
educational march. It is well-known
by all intelligent people in the State
and out of the State that were the
entire school fund from taxation of
the property of whites given to the
support of our white schools that
the length of the tchool term in
North Carolina would be along with
the highest, bnt our funds are die
yived with the colored people, whom
Green's Kind put among us and
who were afterwards turned loose
with all the privileges of citizenship
without anything to contribute to
the support of the government of
which they are a part. Have you
not senBe enough to see that, Mr.
Green ? You have a heart and mind
that will bring jou in close fellow
ship with the colored people and you
have a devilish disposition to sub'
ject Southern white girls to an as
sociation with colored men, (yet you
haven't heart and honor enough to
do justice to Southern people.
6. "And whereas the missionaries
have been dragged in oy Mr. Cook
as being all breakers of the eighth
(ninth) commandment." This is
what Green says in his article.
Could this Englishman, with his
hand on the Bible,. swear that he did
not, when writing the above, dei
liberately, knowingly and malicious
ly lie ? If so, he is blacker at heart,
baser, meaner and more contemptible
than any white flesh has yet stoeped
to. The Standaed never said any
such and has never entertained such
views.
7. In another column you will find
the articles that gave insult and
which ' I resented. I said nothing
in resenting them that was untrue,
or that reflected on the Englishman,
or on any one what was said was
intended for the authoress of "In1
side the House" and the author or
authoress of "Our Forgotten Ones."
Up to this date the author of the
last named article is not known,
except that Mr. " Green, - not
heretofore held responsible, now
comes out and endorses it.
In so far as that goes he is the father.
Read the articles see the in
sults to our section, to our sisters,
to our mothers, to our own, Green
espouses all these. But let us quote
him from the article . he, himself,
distributed over town. He says :
"Idefy the editor of the Daily
Standard to prove that the eighth
(ninth, as some number, it) conn
mandmcnt is broken by the articles
published in Our Sea- and Land,
even if those articles were written
by Miss Means, and ' about Concord
or this section." Eeador, this nan
Green espouses all these articles &uI
espouses them as applying to this
community. The effort was made
to saddle it off on another commu
nity; but now mad in his malice
and determined to stand by the lies,
he brings them right to your own
doors. There is no mistaking
where Green puts the article. He
defies a proof that there is Blander
in saying (See articles)
That our people forcot religion,
education and morals ;
That our ministers can scarcely
read;
That our schools are "blab':
schools;
That our teachers are ragged,
dirty.
That our women chew Bnuff'
sticks while tbey teach;
That we have forgotten God ; for
gotten our own honor, our own
manhood ;
That two Northern ladies were
Bent here to teach our women how
to keep house;
That Bicce they established 13
schools in North Carolina and
Tennessee, our boys and girls are
finding their God, getticgan educa
tion and learning good manners.
This is what this Englishman
says to us. He Eigns his name in
defense ci it ard he circulates his
lying literature r ght among our
people. He tried first to get out
of it; but cornered, becoming ma.
and crazy with malice, he acknowl
edges all and eays it's true and
defies proof to the contrary.
The entire article "Inside the
House" is intended to represent our
affairs and would be taken as such
by those not haying been here.
Read it. It is an infamous lie
Green espouses it he defies proof
that it does not fit our affairs. He
hands It to ron'; he asks you to read
it ; and after slandering you, he
expects you to reBpect him and
honor nim.
Because our papers Bought to de
fend these people and their homes,
this lying foreigner, full of malice
and inborn hatred, turns on his
heels and declares that our defense
being permitted by the people who
support the papers shows that their
supporters are worso than the ar
tides affirmed.
Green comparing himself to the
leaders of Waterloo and Gettysburg
and picturing how their glory and
grandnees when compared to his be
comes "as the morning dew before
the rising sun," is bewildering, stun
ning. Pause, while the Englishman
in his chariot and cloth leggins
paBsesby. God forbid the coming
of that army, that Green in
his crazy flights pictures, if
there be others lost, as is Green
to truth and blinded by malice, de
ceit and colossal self-importance.
8. "Has the standard of manhood
become bo low in the 8outh that men
will pass by on the other side while
the noblest womanhood is slandered
and defamed ?" This Green asks
he asks it, too, in the same article in
which he declares your lady teachers
teach with snufiisticks in their
mouths, that two women from the
North had to teach our mothers and
sisters how to keep house, and that
our ministers can scarcely read. No
sir, our manhood is not at low ebb.
It was that that asked us to resent
those lying articles that you espouse
and now reiterate it was that
Sonthern manhood that prompted
us to defend our section, our moth
ers, Bisters, our wives against the
slanderous articles you have the red
face cheek to throw in our faces.
Our women don't write slanderous
articles to newspapers and then try
to get out ef them. They don't fire
off their pens untruthfully against
people their equal and then jump
behind skirts for protection. What
has become of your English man
hood, Mr. Green ? Have you gotten
so low in honor and manhood that
you can unblushingly face theChris1
tian women of this Southland after
having declared that you espouse all
that those articles say ? What's the
matter with you ?
Mr. Green, it is no pleasure to
write such things. 1 regret the ne
ceB8ity ; I regret that you force me
to have no confidence in jour verac
ity ; 1 regret that you force me to
stand aloof and not speak often of
the work you are doing ; I regret
that you repudiate all honor from
such a Bourse as a CoBcord news
paper ; I am glad, however, that in
your conceit and knavery, you are
not vnlerable from such a source, in
this your English manhood is full of
peace ; you are the cause of all this ;
you lost your bead ; you rushed in
to print with an article that would
do more honor to a brilliant inebriate
than to a proud Englishman ; I re
gret that your article was so full of
lies that I had to nail them ; 1 re
gret that you cowardly pulled in the
city schools and tried to make your
case strong, to giye you a feast in
arraying one class against me.
Mr. Green, I hurl backin your
teeth all insinuation of a lack of
chivalry I honor Southern tomen ;
I honor all Christian, truthful . wo
men from wLever they come. It
is Southern chivalry that defends
eur section and women against such
malicious knaves as you, Mr. Green.
Ili-d you asked a hearing in Thh
Standard, a respectful one would
have been given you. ,You haye
wheels in your head and preferred
to issue a - lying circular I am
forced to answer. Your terms are
so bitter, mean and unwarranted,
that you force me to use terms to
suit you end your conglomeration of
wi!d notions and idiotic flights. -
Mr. Green, if you can go down
oil your knees and pray the Giyer of
all Gifts to forgive you for your
falsehoods and say you are sorry for
thus 8lnndering your betters, theBfe
noble Southern people, then 3 ou
shall be forgiyen by us; if in your
English knavery, you persist in your
crime, then you shall go where all
such belong down in contempt.
I apologize to the readers for
this long article, and the only
excuse I have lor writing it
is in defense of this section and the
good people who call it home. He is
unworthy of the Southern woman
who gave him birth, who will not
ou all oocaaions defend Southern
women, men and homes against in
suits from within or without.
'Respectively,
Jas. P. Cook.
KORNER WRITES.
Why do some people grunt
ble and cry "hard times?"
The Oiver of all Good has
been considereate unto all
races of man, and when it
comes to the good old South
ern darkey, who is simply in
a heaven he yearns for and
Appreciates more than all that
awaits him in the land beyond, can
say unto himself "bletsed art thou! '
Many of our readers have seen the
pen pictures of the kmkeyheaded
native approaching and leaying the
field, loaded with the spoils of a
day's bout with some neighboring
planter's product, about this time in
the year, when ater melons are rare
and high-.priced, and you have drawn
on your imagination until you could
see your own Bereant emerging from
your patch, ladened with that which
sootheth his soul, quenches his
thirst and causes his mind and
a part of his body to expand,
and the heart of which is drawn in
near unto another. But what could
be more tempting to a man who is
eaisly pursuaded ? If you have
neyer seen the happiness, the genuine
srtickle, I mean, in reality, among
the colored people, juBt get on to the
Korner Saturday evening from 5 un
til 10 o'clock and you will be con
vinced that hard times cut no figure
in their happiness. The "hard
times" ciy is beginning to lose its
weight among the farmers, too.
They are thankful for the good
seasons with which they are being
ing blessed and are happy and con
tented with the bountiful, plenteous
crops of wheat, oats, rye and clover
and the prospects of a fair average
in cotton and corn, to say nothing
of the enormous amount of lucious
fruit. But when speaking of con
tentment, I will remark that the
Southern darkey and the hunter is
greatly blessed, also, in the way of a
good season for Bweet potatoes and
'possums. "When there is a good
persimmon crop," my pa used to tell
me, "vou can prepare your hounds
for a good 'possom year." So think
ing, I will now, in time, giye all fair
warning.
Your humble servant sees in The
Standard what Concord has and
will remark that it does the biggest
business of any small town in the
county ana that some of her citizenB
are thrifty and energetic, and love
to see the town grow and are in
teresed in the welfare and growth of
the city as well as themselves and
their wealth; that some of her
citizens have outgrown the town and
some have grown out of the town;
that there are many improvements
in progress; that the population is
increasing ana it won t ne many
years until it will have a free mail
delivery and that it doesn't need a
street sprinkler as long as the ele
ments furnishes us with cooling, re
freshing showers; that she has the
handsomest and ablest set of min
isters and ehnrches of any small
town in the State; that her water
supply is yery good, but none are
Sure how many microbes and craw
fish they swallow during a year's
time;' that our lights burn some
nights when the moon shines, gen
erally; that there are many chronic
kickers and newspaper deadbeats;
that it iB a "dry town," but there is
nothing to hinder a man from get
ting all the beer he wants minors
as well as grown-up folks; that we
need street cars and a park with a
pavilion for the band to practice
upon; that sbeis noted for her cot
ton manufactories and the good gov-
ernment and morality of her citizenB
and their operatives; that praty pre
judice has caused contamination and
ill-feeling one- toward another and
that the best of brotherly love does
not exist even amor the women;
that the busings outlook for 1805
is brilliant and that the merchant is
happy and grins very courteously at
the clink of "free silver", or the
thud of the gold dollar or the ruf
fle of the greenback; that her me
chanics work hard and get their
wages in coin, once a month at least;
that there is mud enough around
the town to build several large
cities; that some of our streets are
underlaid with gold and duet (where
our gold bugs came from); that
everybody wears good clothes some
of them bloomers and big sleeyes;
that it has some yery offensive hog
pens and subjects; that it has some
pretty residences; that she has long
ed for the return of "Annie," the
dummy, and that it is yet possessed
of a faint hope; that she will raise
more sand in the next few years than
she has in the past four; that there
are more blackberries furnished the
market than there is demand; gen
erally speaking, it is a healthy place
for the doctors, if they don't have
chills; that it allows bicycle riding
on the sidewalk; that the country
horses want to rest under the sheds
on the sidewalks when they come to
town; that cows graze on the aid
walks, which should be strictly pro
hibited; that the calaboose is going
to rot half the people of the town
can't find it now; that the citizens
do not co-operate in up-to-date
business lives; that the water supply
for the fire department is very intig
nificant should there te a demand
f orjany great amount and that if a
tire would ocour off Main street over
1,000 feet or 400 yards, the hose and
real company could do no good with
their equipments; that some build
ings and fire traps should be con
demned. I haye not time or space
to enumerate the outlook of the town
as I see it, and will leave it with you
while" tho mosquito sings pretty
songs and lnllabys until I am out of
town into the land of oblivion.
