A true Democrat is one who firmly believes in the doctrines and principles of the party, who is a Democrat because he believes it is to the best interest of his State and the Union that the principles advo cated by that party should be car- rlml mit lr mnii nlirvson tn nfTioo AV& V v. v. JJ Liivii viivyi ' 11 vv-f viiiuv from that party. A true Democrat will believe this and he will show his faith by his works ; he will at tend the primary meetings, the con ventions and all meetings of his party; he will join his party clubs ; he will take an interest in all that is done by the members of his party to make it successful ; he will electioneer tor the candidates ; he will go to the polls on election day and vote for the men his party have said are the proper ones to represent the party in office and carry out the party's principles. A man calling himself a Demo crat, who will contribute nothing to the expenses of the campaign, who win not take tne trouble to go to hear his leaders speak, who will show no interest in the election of his party ticket as a whole, who will vote for this man on the ticket because he likes him or because he once received a favor at his hands, and will scratch the name of that man because he does not like him, personally or because he does not agree with him on some side issue or for any other reasons, such a man is not a Democrat from principle ; he is so because it Suits his conve ' nience to be so or, perhaps, he is so because he thinks it a better policy to be on the white men's side. A county full of such Democrats as this latter kind will never make the party successful; and if the party is forced to rely upon such supporters it had as well disband at once for it will certainly go to pieces. What the county needs and what m the party must have is a band of Democrats of the other kind in every county in the w hole Union. With 6ucha band of men marching shoul der to shoulder, fighting every inch of ground, and whenever receiving the slightest repulse from the enemy fighting with all the more determi nation to regain the lost ground and to push into the hostile lines, vic tory will be certain. More than ever before do we need men of this stamp in our party ; we have hard fighting to do during the next two weeks. We have bold and valiant leaders, but thy can accomplish nothing if the rank and file of the part are luke warm and careless in the perfor mance of their .duty. Let us all now, at the beginning ol this the second week before the election, re- c . . , 7, with a sfronger resolution and fuller J determination to carrv the dav. Let us, each and every one of us, make a solemn resolve toshirk no duty, to let no opportunity lor doing some thing for the cause pass unheeded. Let's strain every muscle and put the highest tension upon every nerve for , the final struggle. If we do so the victory will be ours. WHITE 31 EX: Caucasians, of North Carolina, con sider the condition of our State when under Republican r rule. Consider the thieves and plundering scalawags and carpet-baggers who ruled the people. Take into consideration that out of the 130,000 .Republican votes, there are 120,000 negroes and only 10,000 whites,' who control the negro vote, and who in no event are voting lor principle,, but "boodle" and so fool the ignorant negro. Then consider the possibility of again liv ing under thieving .administration, the bankruptcy of the State, the plundering of the counties, t he in sults, paramount to all, that we will be liable to, .should we have as we did have, negro officers, and then ask your wives which way you should vote. Vote as they say and we have no fears of the result. r - OUK EXCHANGES. Greensboro Workman : Miss Eliza' Lindsay Morehead, daughter of Major. J. Turner Morehead, and Dr. William Nelson, of Danville, were married, in the Baptist church at Leaksville, on . Wedneschiy night, October 17th. Reids ville Democrat : The execu tion of Millie Poteat, the negro -woman convicted of house burning, which was to have taken place at Yancey ville last Friday, was post poned until November Uth. Capt. Kitchin is said to be doing some very eilicient campaign work in the .Western part of the State. Some of Reidsville's old Democratic citizens feel good till now over the magnifi cent speech he delivered here three weeks ago. Person County Courier: We heard of a young man near "Win stead, who, on the night of the first frost this year, went in "his tobacco field and built up fires 'all over his tobacco patch. How is that? We regret to learn that Mr.. WML Long had the misfortune to lose a barn of tobacco by fire last Tuesday night. There was more drinking done in Roxboro last Saturday than we ever saw here in one day before. The Republican candidates seem to think all they have to do is to shove up enough free whiskey and the country is safe for them. Charlotte Chronicle: Charlotte has for a long time made direct ship ments of cotton to Liverpool, but a new territory hasniow been invaded, and Charlotte cotton goes direct to Amsterdam. The first hundred bales of cotton turned out by the compress yesterday were for Sanders fc Orr, and were shipped direct for Amsterdam.- Col. John A. Holt, the su perintendent of the new cotton com press, arrived yesterday, and went to work at once. Col, Holt is a rail road veteran. He helped to build the North Carolina road and was conductor of the first train that ever went out of Charlotte, in '18-33. Weekly Crop Bulletin of the X. C. Weather Service. . Raleigh, N. C, October 20, '88. Rainfall. The rainfall in all dis tricts was below the average, with a very favorable effect upon all crops. Temjx'roture and Sunshine. There was about an average temperature. The sunshine was above the average amount. REMARKS. Central District. Gib.on Sta tion, Richmond Count ij. "The past week has been favorable for all crops." Salem, Forayth County. "Favorable weather for sowing wheat." Fialeigh, Wake . County. "Very favorable for all crops." Hor renton, Warren County. 'Very fa vorable to cotton picking. Farmers commencing to sow wheat. H. IJ. Battle, Ph. D., Director. ' ' Gen. Hoke's Letter. Pressing professional business threatened to prevent my attendance at the late re-union of the Gth X. C. Regiment It was only at the last moment that I was able to get off. In the hurry of departure, I forgot General Hoke's letter. This explains why it was not read at the re-union, and is due to all, and especially "the boys." Allow me to say a word relative to our brigadiers. Barnard E. Bee the first, fell at First Manassas, after having baptised Jackson with the name of Stonewall. He was a grad uate of West Point, had seen service under General Scott in Mexico, hav ing 'been brevetted twice the last being for most gallant and merito rious conduct in storming the fortress of Chapultepec. He fell, grasping in his hand - the sword' .which the Legislature '.of South Carolina hadr presented to him, in behall ot th,e State, some vears before. On that held, Jackson, Longstr,eet, Lwell and i K m;ti;..nWn nirhrirnflipra Mr. W. II. C. Whiting was the only general in the Southern army who took No. 1 at West Point. He belonged to the engineer corps of the old army. Was Major-General and was mortally pounded at Fort Fisher and died in New York. E. M. Law was and is now a pro fessor in a Military school in the South. He became Major-General of Cavalry in the Western Army. R. F. Hoke has the rare and sin gular distinction of being promoted Major-Gencral on the licit I of victory which his military genius won. He was made Major-General at Plymouth by telegram from President Davis. He is uniformly spoken of by all the Federal writers as a master in war. I will not trust myself to say any thing, as it might be considered that 1 was blinded by personal admira tion. A. C. Godwin was; captured at the Rappahannock railroad bridge'a few weeks after his promotion. He had been Colonel of the -37th. After his release, in a. few weeks, he fell at Winchester, September 10, 1SGL W. G. Lewis was a civil engineer and a graduate of Chapel Hill, I think. He took command when there was no chance for promotion. There were but a few months re maining till the sun set at Appo mattox. He was a brave and effi cient officer. Is now, 1 think, presi dent of a railroad. R. W. Y. But to the Generals letter : Raleigh, N. C.,Sept. 29, '88. Col. R..W. York: My Dear Sir: I have the pleas ure of your favor of the 20th inst., inviting me to be present on the 1 1th of October, at Durham, at the re union of Gth N. C. Regiment, for which please thank the committee of arrangements. . I thank you most heartily for your kind expressions, relative "to my attendance, and 1 wish very much that I could be present, but my engagements are such that I will be unable to do so, much to ray re gret. I however wish for the old Gth N. C. Regiment and for every veteran present a good time, with a regular old Confederate cheer. Yours very truly, R. F. Hoke. t , The Issue. New York HeraM. It is not in the tariff on wrool, or iron or coal ; it is not in Canada or Mexico that we find the stake, but the Union, the free Union, with no monarchism in reversion. Let the fighting wrord until the polls close be the free Union. Are we to remand the Southern States to the desolating barbarism of negro domination, in evitable under Republican rule? Are we to abandon the farmers of the northwest to the land of robbers and ' railway thieves ? Are we to doom the labor of the middle States to another generation of Carnegies, to a system under which the rich grow richer, the poor poorer? Are we to bring the industries of New England down to the level of the much pro tected Continental States, where lives of thrift and toiFend in squalor, ex ile or shame? This is the issue in volved in that of a! free Union, the issue to be determined by the re eletionof Mr. Cleveland. Winston Sentinel : Hogs are dying in Stokes county from a disease sim ilar to that of cholera. Some are of the opinion that they die from the effects of eating two many acorns. The Reporter gives the names of the following persons who have sus tained losses from the burning of to bacco barns in Stokes county this fall: Wesfey Morefield, four barns; Henderson Morefield, two barns; A. Moran, one barn ; James Tillottson, five barns and Bird Tuttle one barn. Healtby' Growth.
