Issues Riirsrer Than Refore and Larger Interests at Stake The People vs. 'Gigantic 3Ionopoly The People IJoiind to Win Rrief Survey of the Situation Five Iays in Advance. Special Correspondence to The Plant. W ashington, .ov. i ao more gigantic struggle for political su- premacy has ever been waged .in an v country in any aire than that ml m . V J which is nearing its close in the United States between the Democrat ic and Republican parties, previous contests between these parties may have had some elements of personal rancor and of scandal which do not enter so largely into this. But in the present conflict the issues are bigger than they were in those issues that affect the whoje industrial as well as political future of the country. In the grand conlhet between the led- cral and the early Republican party and in the later ones between the Democratic and Whig parties great constitutional questions affecting the structure and permanence of tlie gov- eminent itself were involved. One generation has to lace a direct issue between a monster aggregation of monopolies and the people at large. Viid as the issue is greater than most brnier issues presented in many years, so the increased number 01 . 1 T t u voters, the greater influence -of the )ress, the keener and more diffused intelligence of the people themselves, he more powerful material resources ot the country and especially the more tenacious hold taken by pro- ected interests.all conspire to make the election of 1888 ..iriore highly interesting, and more important than any oi its predecessors, - iins view it . 1 m may not strike all intelligent persons alike. But it is certainly the way m which manv regard the situation The Democratic party may not every where be as well handled in point ot organization and management as the liepuoiican. j Nevertheless -it occu- -a . pies a vantage ground m having given the country more than three' ears orgood administration and m having long and earnestly tried to reduce the burden of useless taxation. riic logic of the situation is therefore that the Democratic party must suc ceed next Tuesday. Sensations, may be sprung, idle reports to its preiu dice mav irain some small credence in certain quarters. . but the better sense ot the people will assert itselt in the re-election of Mr. Cleveland and the return of a Democratic Con rri'2C '.i tln.1 I ii v.fMii Lr. tni!ll .or is mis . mere optimism ex pressed in generality and based onin- suthcient data. It is the information ot the clearest-headed men in the party counsels and it is borne out by the attitude of the cool fellows who gamble on elections for the simple purpose ot winning money, lhe professional gamblers are confirming by the odds they offer in favor of Cleveland and Thurmau, the claims ot the Democrat Mr. Henry G. Williams' left New York this morning and stopped a short while in this city. He told some of his personal friends that from all he heard and saw in the North he felt that there was ho doubt ot a great Democratic Victor. Mr. llliams is an accomplished politi cian, as everybody knows. He is- not usually sanguine of his party 's success, i wen remember that in 1660 he made a similar visit to New York, just before the election, and that in' private, on his return, he pre dieted the defeat ot his party s can didates. j That he should now regard the election of Cleveland and Thur man as certain as any such event can be in advance is confirmatory of other news received here and to which great credence is given. X.ord Sackville has as briefly and coldly as possible acknowledged the receipt from the State department of his dismissal. Nothing further has been heard from the English gov ernment, so far as is known. Mr. Willis B. Dowd, of Charlotte, has been admitted, on motion of Maj. W. W. Fleming, to practice in the Supreme court of the United States. Gaugers and storekeepers just ap pointed in the oth district : J. W. Dobbins, E. M. Brawley, George L. Hearner. Joseph Smith and M. H. Costner, and also the following: Charles J. Elam, River Hill ; Ham ilton Erwin, Morganton ; J. W. Wil liams, Forbush ; W. N. Thomas, Midway. News 'from the Capital. Social Correspondence to The Plant. 7 Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 2, ?SS. At Democratic headquarters it is estimated that Judge Fowle's major ity Will be 14,000. At Republican headquarters it is said that rowle cannot possibly be elected. Many persons sav that Judge rowle will win by a majority ot lrom o,000 to 10,0 MJ. i our correspondent s tig ures are 12,500 for him. JNIany Dem ocrats say they would prefer to see a small majority, as it would spur up the Democrats, Big majorities create, lethargy and carelessness, it is asserted. But other Democrats say they wish to see an immense major lty ; one which will completely snow the Radicals under. A full-blooded Cherokee Indian is in the uenitentiarv. He is Tom a, Chicalbilla, and he both murdered and robbed another Indian. He, gets 20 years at hard labor. It is really cheering to hear the good news which some of the people who have come here to vote bring from Washington. They say that Ohio and Illinois people are asking leave for all departmental employes from' those States to go home and vote and that it is said mere is a 1.1 . 1 " . 1 good prospect for Democratic suc cess in both States. The Radicals are very impudent t Hoffman, day before yesterday, several of them went into the store of Mr. V. J. Whitaker, the registrar of election. Thev asked if his books were open to inspection. He pleas antly replied that they were, and that he had no obiection to their seeing them. Alter a moment s glance at the books the men said they were not kept in with law. Whitaker accordance told them they were mistaken ; that he knew the law and that they were properly kept. 1 hey made an attempt to take the books, saying they would correct them. hitaker told them to mind their own business. They then , attacked him. He shot a them and smashed the thigh of one, disabling &hn. The others ran and he continued the fire. Iwo bullet passed through the hat of one.. Mr .Whitaker was the right man in the right place that time. 1 here was a good deal of half sup pressed excitement here yesterday Some suspicious parties arrived here on tne early morninp: train lrom Hamlet. The railway people told DArs'ons here of their suspicious ac tions on the way here. To-day they were regularly spotted. It was soon found out that they were emissaries of Morton. They got wind of the fact that they were under surveil lance and got out on the very first north-bound train. There were three of them and they got tickets to New l ork. It was discovered that these same men were at Maxton yesterday and had lett there just in time to escape tar and feathers. Thev were found to be deliberately buying up votes at Maxton. They had much money and spent it freely, and were doing some suspiciously dirty work. They got warning to leave at once. It was learned late last night that there was another .of these Morton emissaries at Wilson yesterday and that he. had received notice to leave or take the cohseouences. There may be many of these "bribers and corrupters" in various parts of the State. Notice to leave in two hours is about the thing for them. People who came in from Weldon last evening say yesterday was a irrnnt. ilnv fit tlio toil tlinvn Tlmvr. fxlv HUT lit LJ1U lllll I . . 1 . 1 UVl V is a foir exhibition and some nrcttv 3d racing. One of the chief at tractions was Capt. W. II. Anthony's handsome cavalry troop, the Scot- land Neck Mounted Riflemen, which is wen mounted and admirably equipped. .There was a had accident at Wel don yesterday. A drunken negro man named Lee Vincent, of North ampton county, while attempting to board a moving train fell under the wheels and his arm was cut off. There was a horrible and most de liberate suicide near Garvsburg ves terday. George A. Harding, a quite well-known white man, of North ampton county, who had for years been an invalid, waited beside the track until a passenger train, moving very rapidly came within thirty yards of him, then stepped into the centre of the track and bowing his head and partially crouching awaited swift and sure death. In a moment he was crushed and fragments of his body, distributed along i!00 yards of the track. . North Carolina is to be represen ted, and that superbly, at the Paris exposition next year. The United States will bear all expenses in the matter. Commissioner Robinson, ot he department of agriculture, re ceived notice of this fact yesterday. This State will have ready for the government its varied and complete displays, many already partially in shape. Special agents will come f 1 1 i ' i here lrom asningion to cont-ci. hem. -' During the pa-t month the reve nue collections in this district were SI 13,126. Mr. George M Woods, a printer, lied very suddenly at bis home here vesterday. He was a native ot the Island of Jersey and lived in the same townC whence came the lamou Mrs. Langtry. He served a good many vears in the British army and was a particularly well inlormed man. lie was one oi me -swiuwi typesetters in the .State, but was very dissipated. There were thjrty-three deaths here during October, of which num ber nineteen were white persons. Thirty-five marriage licenses were issued in this count' last month, ot which fifteen were white people. The police here made 120 arrests during October, of which G9 were for drunkenness. There were no se rious crimes committed during the month. Much interest is shown in the re vivals at Brooklyn and Central Methodist churches; A negro man named Alex. Harri son was crushed. to death last Mon day in the machinery of a cotton gin, in Swift Creek township. His clothing caught in the gearing. News from Charlotte. Special Correspondence to The Plant. Charlotte, N. C, Nov. 1, SS Politics, and nothing but politics, is all the talk in this section now. Dockery, Lockey and other Kepub- lican stumpers have been chunking the political fire, Lockey and some others continue to swing around the country and mount the stump when- ir.iJ .1 ever a crowu oi a uozeu negroes can be found. Lockey is no doubt tired of the "wear and tear" of competing for "All Kowland sseat in Congress. Looking weary andjeare worn, he re marked to me: "There are only five more days and, thank God, the crisis is over !" Democrats here were never more enthused or indignant than they now are Just think ! Docker' has suc ceeded in having Fjederal marshals and supervisors of election appointed for a number of counties and Meck lenburg is among the number! At many of the precincts negroes have received the appointment and they will stand at the polls on - election day armed to boss the election ! Is it any wonder that honest white men become indignant and from the bot tom ot their heart cry out against Republican supremacy and negro rnlp? "What in the name of high heaven is the matter with you Re publicans ?" I. asked a prominent member of the party this morning, and his answer was ; " We mean to see that every negroiwho is entitled to a vote shall vote ;j we have a ma jority of Republican voters in North Carolina and intend to carry the election or fill Albany prison with North Carolina Democrats." These threats have served to put every Democrat to work and see to it that every man in favor of. Democratic supremacy goes to . the polls next Tuesday and casts his ballot for every ( Democratic 'jcand idate - from Cleveland down, without a mark or scratch. "Guv Walker is booked for a sneech here to-morrow night and Sam Small is booked for next Monday. These champions of the Third party come toj rescue the old sinking ship from a complete wreck in this part of the State. If there are an' Third partyites. in this sec tion they lie exceedingly low and keep their mouths shut. Candidly, I "do not believe the Third party will poll twenty-five votes in this (Mecklenburg) county. It is not talked ; it is not ( agitated it is dead. NOTKS.

The whole question of the 1888 crop, and itsrtrue merit, is still suspended upon much doubt ; while the quality is undesirable, yet its value has not been tully determined, and we must admit it is one of the most difficult questions to solve in the tobacco line that we have had to tackle for years, and the man that thinks he knows .i . ..i l.i i" .1 tne most in me solution oi mis question will find himself sur- rounded by o many contingencies so many and uncertainties that he finds him self inthe fog.
