Kvery interest of the State demands that the Ku Klux shall not be placed in possession of the State government. Not a single Democrat who opposed Convention last summer was proposed, even, for a place on tho Democratic State ticket? Jo. Turner lias gone "West to re-organize the Ku Klux Klans against the election. Wonder if he will order them to ride thr-nfght before tho el tion? . - tlaLim imvA hn snrnispd In thia contest that anti-Convention Demo- to give one day to aid in electing Re crats. will out of self-respect and in publican candidates, and thus preserve self-defence support the Republican f State ticket. The malicious slander of Beck t Co., which .was nailed; to the counter by larshal Carrow, was gotten up to cover the importation into North Carolina of the Tammany stealings. It is perfectly natural that the cause of Merrimon (Swepsons counsel) and the cause of Shipp (who irocued Swepson's release) should be assisted by the stealings of Tammany. At the Democratic-Conservative Ku Klux" Meeting in this city on Tuesday the ICth, was exhibited ! i Tlo funniest of the funny figures, Whito Line Graham a-tween two higgers.1 Did Greeley know the Tammany stealings were to be used to elect their President? Is that one of the reasons why he never denounced Tweed & Co., or helped bring them to justice? Was tho North Carolina Rail Road Ring, a branch of tho Tammany Ring of New York?. It would seem so from the way . Tammany sends money to North Carolina to help elect Merrimon. Those Democrats who opposed the Convention have been completely os traclsed by the leaders of their party. Jo Turner and his crowd said "damn 'cm drive 'fin out" and they " driv Ross Tweed sends greeting to Swep son. The money Tweed stole for the Democratic party is being used in North Carolina to pay for speakers and barbecues to help out Swepson's cori- tidcntial adviser in the ringswindl T I Tho Tammany Democracy have beep stealing money from the people for four years and laying it up for electioneering purioscs. A pile of these stealings have been sent to North Carolina to defeat the loyal people at the polls in August. Swepson robbed the people of North Oirolina out of millions. A. S. Mer rimon was his counsel. I Now, the Tammany Ring comes to t he assistance of Swepson's counsel, and is freely spending its stealings for Mer rimon and Greeley. Birds of a feather will flock together. Itemember, you who have mothers, si tors, wive those who are endeared to you l'y tho strongest ties of nature, remember that W. A.Smith endorses the publishers 6f that infamous article, Wobk.-Durham Tobacco riant. J This Is a slander as black as the smoke that ascends from the infernal regions. j The jartyofall the wealth, respect- virtue and intelligence, has ability boon convicted, and stands self-con- fes.sed, guilty of theft, rapine and mur der, committed in the dark with dis guised faces, and its leading represen tatives are to-day the inmates of felons cells, clothed in the garb of Peniten tiary convicts! Fifty persons turned out at Dallas, In Gaston county, to hear Judge Merrimon and Judge Shipp speak. j Hon. T. S. Ashe was extensively lostetl to speak at Dallas on Thursday last, and twenty unterrlfied Democrats of the secesh stripe, appeared at the place ! -. . Most of this crowd turned out to show their respect for the uian who voted to keep them out of the conscrip tion, on the ground that' they owned twenty negroes and were therefore gentlemen, and not expected to go to war and get their legs and arms shot off and get killed, like common white trash .who never owned a "nigger, and who ought therefore, accordingvto Democratic logic, have been 1 killed any way. - i i Another Convention,' The unterrified Democrats who re- fuso to barter principle for office, have resolved to hold a National Convention at Louisville, Kentucky, on the third of September next. ..... , Vol. 2.
