Tin, fr- riopliind made his Cabi- II UCU net in 1885, he took the country by surmise. He put in it at least three distinguished men in politics Mr. Bay ard. Mr. Lamar and Mr. (iarlana, aii Senators and two from the South. Mr: Manning, of New York, Secretary . of the Treasury, was known to be, a man of-fine talents and he made a superior .official. The others Mr. Endicott, Mr. Whitney, Mr. Vilas, Mr. Dickin- c-vt. -arai-o nnmnArativfilv Unknown, but . . v . thev all proved, if our impression is cor rect. successful Secretaries, and Mr. "Whitney developed into a particularly strong and wise man,, He has but few eouals among living Northern politi- tiana Wn wnnM rather vote for him than any man in the North after Mr, Cleveland, who is always our favorite lAnanaA wa hplifiVft he will serve his country with fidility, integrity, zeal nv,;iitv His choice of some particular man will not always meet our candid approval, and we do not hesitate to say when we do not agree with his action in matters pertaining to the rmblic welfare. None but a slavish, i nsincere organ can do otherwise. In his-first Cabinet Mr. Cleveland took two men from his own State, New York, one not far away, Delaware, and one close by in another direction Mas sachusetts. A very small area had four of the eight members. The South got two of the eight, and they were able and experienced men and gave much satisfaction. In the second Cabinet he is more gen erous to the South giving three mem befs, one from Georgia, one from" Ken tncky, one from Alabama. Mr. Carlisle is second to no living Southron and perhaps has no peer in the land. So Mr. Cleveland has been reported as say ing. Mr. Herbert is an able man oi ripe experience and is particularly qual ified for the Naval portfolio. The last w York Tribune praises him for his r . favorable report in the House, showing the great blessings of protection in ob taining cheaper war vessels. We have written of Mr. Smith of Georgia. He is renuted a erdod lawyer but without 1 o - Experience in public affairs. . Th North eets five officers.

There are some mil lions of Democratic voters who are the same fix. . He takes again two men from New York who have to show here after that they have any fitness for tht place. One is almost wholly unknown. Mr. W. S. Bissell, and the other wa only known as the President's Man Friday his private secretary in the first-term. Mr. Cleveland is too wise a man we must believe to pick inferior men for high places. Outside of Massa chusetts no one probably ever heard of the name of the new Attorney General. Mr. Richard Olney. We know nothing whatever of Mr. J. S. Morton, of Ne- braska, who is Secretary of Agriculture. Of Mr. Gresham, of Illinois, all have heard. He is, or was very recently, the equal of any Republican in charactei and had but very few equals in his party for ability. . , The new Cabinet stands five North ern and three Southern: seven Demo erats and one Republican. Three from the East, two from the West and three from the South. The two very able men of the new family are Carlisle and Gresham. Altogether it is a Cabinet mostly of new men, untried men, nd time will show how well the selec tions are. It is Mr. Cleveland's right (to choose, and if there should be failure at any point he will have to bear the public censure. The Democrats who have been fighting the battles and lead ing the hosts in the last quarter of a century are practically ignored. There is no telling where Cleveland lightning will strike. Virginia and the Carolinas do not seem to be in favor with Mr. Cleveland. NORTH CAROLINA CADETS AT WEST POINT. We publish a brief communication to-day from a well known Wilming toniau relative to a very gifted native of this city, who was graduated at West Point with the first honors in Gen. Beauregard's class Lieut. William H. Wright. He and young Allen, of Northampton county, we believe it was, were the only two North Carolinians who have secured the first place at the National Military Academy. Men have gone there from State colleges and . taken only sixth or even sixteenth rank in classes of thirty or forty, who secured first honors at home institutions easily. V e know two such cases. This shows how high a first or second place is at West Point where all the contestants in a class come from the whole Union. The late Gen. Charles P. Kingsbury, wao went from this State, was gradu ated number two iu his class of 1840, Gen. feherman being in the same class and obtaining number six, we think it was. Gen. Kingsbury had to contest for the first place against a distinguished graduaU of a college, Gen. Paul O Hebert, of Louisiana, while himself being very poorly prepared, having only a slim English education. Mr. William F. Disbrow, of New York, who was of Gen. Grant's class, and his room mate, told us that Gen. Kingsbury was by odds an abler man than Hbrt, and that there were no two opinions at tha Academy about it If he had hd He bert's advantagesTie" would have been easily first. His "Treatise on Artillery" was the text book at West Point for many years. THE STATE PRINTING As the Messenger .has never Deen concerned in any way witn ine print ing what it says must comef rom a disinterested source. , it nas no .ju towards Air. josepnus .fauicu. N. k Broughton of hi printing firm. we nave always, f11-" tionand cordial relations. with all. We do hot desire to so write as to interrupt those relations. The statement clear, direct, unmis takable made in the Raleigh Chronicle of Wednesday by the editor, Mr. Jerni gan, places the whole question in a very clear light, and in tnat ugm n wm w hard to blunder. The whole thing is in a - nut shell. The public printing was to be conducted on busines pnnci pies and "at the lowest, reasonaoie rates," 80 instructed caucus No. -1. A contract was made at 15 per cent below the present price. , Two printing houses nnitpd and took : the contract. Caucus No. 2 accepted price but gave the con tract to Mr. Daniels, editing a weekly newspaper. So the middle-man was re tained. But by reducing the present rates $3,l)00;were saved to the State an nually. But investigation has followed, and a startling revelation isniade. Mr. Jerniganthus places it: 'Investigation shows that not only has Mr. Joseohus Daniels drawn from thetreasurey of the State, within the last two years, not less than $a,uuu iot his share, but that .uawaras cc jorougii- ton have approximately drawn irom me same treasury, for the same time, ana as their profits, 6,000, masung a wuu profit of 11,000. - ; - 1 . a at i .i-l n inis is wnai me perpenawwu. v. moral wrong discloses.?' That is very bad. It is very wrong. It is not business, it is not " right. Mr. Jernigan pointely, uays:- "The tax-payers of North Carolina can now see how their money has been taken from their treasury to enrich tne middle man in the printing contract, as well as the parties whose testimony, ior the past six years, has been accepted, as a reliable guide, by legislative com: mittees." . Can the Legislature afford to let that go out as the real state of the case? Can it afford to do "business" in that un justifiable way? Have they a right to pay out $5,500 annually for printing that might otherwise be saved if the printing was really to be done upon "business principles?" We agree with thft "able and ,hish toned editor of the Chronicle in this: , "Take the State Printing out of pol itics. Take the middle man out of tha printing, and make a fair contract with the labor to do tne worK. Mr. Jernigan to his credit be it said, was not a candidate for the printing "except it was openly decided to reward a Democratic paper." Six of the nine Committeemen know this, and a ma jority were favorable to Mm ras" public printer; The people have fights and the Legislature should be careful not to violate them. Nothing is truer or more needed than these calm words of the Chronicle: "Let the party be true to the great moral standards that have so long sus tained its life. Let it not be swayed irom honest duty, from exact and lm partial justice by clamors, by fears, by folly, by selfishness, by hatred of wrong or by prospect of temporary gain. Nothing can be gained by dishonesty. Let justice be done, and the heavens urill npupr fall 'I Our esteemed contemporary is pre cisely right. We say farther, that the Democratic "party is certain to suffer in the future for every wrong it has done or may do. If it allows in any county or township the ballot-box to be tamp e -ed with or legally qualified voters to be excluded or any injustice, or wrong to be pupetrated it will come to grief by that inexorable law of retributive justice. The white man's party ,in North Carolina must be kept pure, and its agents must live up to the public profession and high moral standards of right or it will go down and deserve it. RUNNING NOTES ON A COMMUNI CATION. We publish a communication from an esteemed and intelligent Baptist minis ter relative to the University. The lines quoted from the Messenger that leads him to criticise the State aid to the University contained a truth. There is no such thing as a purely Post-Graduate University in the United States. Not even Johns -Hopkins will bear that description. Harvard,-Yale, Cornell and Princeton Universities are not Post-Graduate, and to. demand that the University of North Carolina shall be superior to these great schools and be even what Johns Hopkins is not, is absurd, is impossible. " The great Uni versity of Virginia,' Washington and Lee University, and Vanderbilt, are not more of . Universities , than the Univer sity of. North Carolina .is. if to "be an University requires and demands that it shall be solely for Post-Graduates. The University of South Carolina, the University of Mississippi, the Univer sity of Louisiana all receive aid from the State and none is a Post-Graduate institution. 1 To talk about having a Post Graduate University with a 120,000 State endow ment is on a par to demand a great United States navy by appropriating only enough money to build one war ship. . - We da not go into an answer to Mr. Powell s objection. Some one else may reply. We are too busyto give the mat ter the close attention it-deserves in order to discuss the moral and constitu tional aspects of the question. We sub mit a few random reflections. A free Commonwealth cannot be said to have "subjects." All men are free and equal beforehe law. . The people are the masters, the sovereigns. For nearly a hundred years the University has been the child or creature of the State. As far back as 177i5,the Constitution authorized the Legislature to "estab lish" public schools. The University was created by the Legislature. . The Constitution of 1868 is strongly in favor of education. The University and the Common Schools are State creations. and are and have been through the cen tury inseparably connected. The late Judge Battle, said: "The framers of each had no expectation that one coui, prosper without the other, or that one was less necessary than the other." The Constitution of 1868 prescribed "That the General Assembly shall provide that THE AVlMffifGI the benefits of the Ifaiversity, so far as ! - . .v .4"U practicable, be extended to ine yuuu of the State frU ofbrpensetoz tuition." The obiections purged against the University aa trending upon the field of the denominational colleges are urgea also and often agaiist the schools under the common school system. .The Graded Schools of the State are complained of and objected to because they interfere with private Behoofs. So if it is wrong for the State to establish a scnooi io teach the higher education it is wrong for it to establish the common nd graded schools to teach upon a lower T.lan. Thev all stand or lau logeuier. If one is immoral all are immoral. If rma i unconstitutional all are unconsti tutionaL One word more. The State has Inot yet done its duty by the University. ' It ought to so increase the endowment as to put it so very high that there cat. be no real rivalry between the other uol. leges and it. We have good reason to believe that the standard at the Univer sity of North Carolina is as high as that . m -m 1 of the University lof Virginia.; It Ka Anlartrfid and improved.

Republican of the; proposed meeting ofthe South ern Governors to consider plans for the development of their States and the betterment of the people. - It really looks innocent enough and we would hav expedted words of approval and , encouragement of the xsortnern press. But the evil minded New York Press is erieved ! and puts this spider in the a . dumplin at the banquet of Governors: "With the TillmanTtes of South Caro lina defying the Federal authority, Ala bama and Mississippi attempting to dis-s franchise thousands of their citizens?

Xet the Southern Governors en force the laws against crime." This is slightly malicious and mean. It is new way to oppose a proper thing. The south could easily give a Rowland for the Press's Oliver if it so minded, as the Memphis Appeal-Avalanche shows. It supposes Northern Governers were proposing to meet for a similar purpose, and what would be thought if it said as follows of the futility of such a meeting; "Before they take any steps we would advise them to. turn tiieir attention to the enforcement of the law in their States, j - With policemen committing rape in New York City, and going ab solutely unpunished, with Wyoming rustlers at times defying the Federal authority, with the New England States and New York passing ballot laws which impose educational qualifications and disfranchise thousands of citizens, with Whitecaps ranging the States of Indiana and Illinois, with the lynching of negroes in New xork and Ohio, with the wholesale corruption of the Northern yeomanry in politics, with the attempted stealing of Senatorships in several of the Western States, with civil war in Kansas growing out of an attempt by the Kepubucans to steal a Senatorship, and with recent success ful ettorts of republicans to steal for a while: at least, Governorships in Con necticut and Nebraska, it is nonsense to v talk about inducing decent people to settle in such a territory.

Other papers and other Democrats can think what they please of Mr. Cleve land's action in inviting Judge Gresham into his Cabinet, but we think very little of it.

We have discredited the report that President Cleveland .has offered ibe puaiLiuu ui ; oeureuirY oi me ouiie to T 1 . . juage urresnam; put it seems to be ac cepted as a fact in the political circles at tne orwn. Judge Gresham has not been very much of a worker in the ranks of Democracy, In fact he was aspirant of the Republican nomination for President four years ago.

PUBLIC OPINION. Our future Secretary of the Interior has been called Hoax, Hokus, Hokgy Pokey, etc., etc All this may be very amusing to our Northern friends, but it is absurd to those who know the Hoke iamily, and especially in person or by .North Carolina, where Hoke Smith was born. ; Hoke's brigade of North Caro linians and Hoke himself were not sub jects of amusement m the earlv sixties and it is very indicative of the whirligig mavement of time that any Northerner . 1 1 .1 u J "1. 1 l . , . &uoutu uuu ti, ta ms neart to poke fun at me name pi aoKe.-iOGftmomt .2:iies, Dem. ; - , Old Ben Butler commands our admi- ranon, Dy nis candor.
