7b the Editor of the Era:
Sir : On Saturday, the 12th instant.
a grand rally of the Republicans of
Johnston, wayce and Sampson was
held at Pleasant Grove, Bentonsville
township, Johnston county. It ws
ono of the largest mass meetings ever
held in this section of the State. The
enthusiasm for Grant and Wilson was
unbounded.
About 12 o'clock the Hon. Wm. A.
Smith took the stand erected for the
speakers and addressed the rge crowd
for about one hour and a half, in one of
tho best speeches of his life, dealing
heavy blows at Horace Greeley as the
man who had said and written more
against Southern people than any other
man in the United States. Maj. Smith
called attention to what Horace Gree
ley said of Confederate soldiers, when
ho denounced them as knaves, liars and
perjurers, all liable to indictment triA
sentence and execution, and who had
wantonly defamed Southern ladies
when he characterized them as being
unchaste.
But notwithstanding all the vile
slanders and libels uttered andjmblish
ed by Horace 'Greeley against the peo
ple of the South, they were asked to
vote for him, but they would not do it.
Greeley had no just right or reason to
even expect the people to vote for him
for President, when he himself had de
clared in his speech that Gen. Grant
tcill be far better qualified for that mo
mentous trust in 1872 than he teas in
1SGS.", Greeley also said, " Gen. Grant
never Jias been defeated, and he never
trill be."
In relation to the frauds committed
upon the State, in the matter of the
bonds issued to the Presidents of vari
ous Railroad Companies, Maj. S:iiith
said the Conservatives and Democrats
got $14,256,000 of about $10,000,000,
showing that the so-called Conserva
tives and Democrats got most of the
bonds.? Geo. W. Swepson, a Conserva
tive, had, by making false certificates,
got $0,006,000 in bonds out of the Pub
lic Treasury, and when Gov. Caldwell
had him indicted for a fraudulent mis
application of the bonds, the Democrat
ic Attorney General, W. M. Shipp, also
a member of the Fraud Commission,
recommended that lhe said criminal
prosecutions pending against said Geo.
had been an actual saving to the gov
ernment on these few articles alone of
$10S,202,C3a, being at the rate of 47 per
cent increase for the last three years.
lie explained many other matters con
nected with the financial affairs of the
country, wmcn cannot even be men
tioned for want of space. j
As to Horace Greeley, he did not un
derstand how any well-meaning South
ern Democrat, who has any regard for
principle or consistency, could vote for
him. Ho has said and written more
against the Democratic party than any
other man in the United States. He
denounced Southern soldiers as "knaves,
liars and perjurers, all liable to indict
ment, trial, sen fence and execution.1 1 He
advocated the ruin of the Southern sol
diers and their homes when he said :
But when the rebellious traitors are
overwhelmed in the field and scattered
like leaves before an angry wind, it
must not be to return to peaceful and
contented homes. They must find pov-
canvassers for the
Township.

one of the most complete and elegantly

Important .Letter
from District Attorney Starbuck.
Editor of Republican:
As many inquires are being made of
me by distillers of brandy, - relative to
their right to sell spirits at the distil
lery in small quantities, without a li
cense,' you will oblige me and confer a
favor upon me by publishing the fol-
lowingUdtter to Mr. Gillespie, which
will serve as an answer to all inquiries
on the suoject. ;
j Very respectfully,

Mr. G.-E. Gillespie:
DeAr Sir In answer to your inqui
ry of the 11th inst, "Whether a distil
ler can sell at his distillery spirits in a
quantityjdown as low as a quart, with
out a license " 1 have to answer you,
that this cannot be done.
Under ! the provision of the act of
Congress, ? of April, 18G9, the distiller
who has given bond may sell spirits of
his own j manufacture in the origmal
casks or packages J to which thejiroper
iax pam. stamps nave oeen amxeu
without taking out a wholesale dealers
licensed lAnd no cask or package of
spiritsicontaining less than three gal
Ions, canibe stamped.
If the distiller wishes to draw and
sell frohi 'his tax paid stamped cask, he
must piiy: his special tax as a wholesale
or retail Idealer. If he shall sell less
than five; gallons, he must pay the re
tail dealer's license tax of $25, and if in
a Quantity of five gallons or more, he
must piiy the wholesale dealer's tax of
Sioo. j.
And fnb distilled spirits can be re
moved! from the distillery xto a place
other thai) the distillery warehouse, un
til the tax due thereon has been paid,
and the casks containing the same have
been properly guaged, marked, and
stamped.' ! .
Such are some of the provisions of
law td prevent fraud upon the revenue,
and to protect the upright retail and
wholesale dealers ' who honestly pay
their taxfs. i
! Very1 respectfully,
H :.! D. H. Starbuck,

they adopted, and the wise. just, and
equitable laws they passed. The so-
called Conservatives and Democrats
. factiously opposed all the Republicans
had done, and yet they now profess to
. be in favor of the same policy and laws
I which they so bitterly denounced.
The Republican party has made
'great and beneficial reforms in the gov
ernment, which are now admitted to
be just and right by those who origin
ally opposed them. ,
Gen. Brogden showed that the Re
publican party in Congress have pass
xl different acts which have taken a
burden off the people of more than
$000,000,000 a year, while the national
debt has been reduced at the rate of
.$100,000,000 every year of President
Grant's administration. He showed
that while the taxes had been so great
1 ly reduced and many articles of neces
sity made entirely free of duty, the
revenue of the government under tho
safe and economical administration of
Gen. Grant has greatly increased, while
the cost of collecting the customs reve
nue has been reduced more than one
half since 1SG0. In that year the per
ccntage of cost to collections was$G.25;
in 1SGS, it was $4.0G; in 1S70, it was
uuk m 041, it was v-o.ii, snuwiuji
a steady decrease in the cost of collect
ing the revenue under Gen. Grant.
.lie showed that the Republican party
in Congress at the last session passed an
act which reduces the revenue taxes
. more than $o0,000,000 annually, and
ramong other things they took thetax
.es entirely off of tea and coffee. The
Republicans passed the acts reducing
the taxes' while such, friends and sup
porters of Greeley , as Blair, Schurz,
riumner ana lTumuuii, in the senate,
and Greeley's supporters in the House
'otcd against them. He showed that
.the credit of our government has great
lv improved under the wise adminis
f . m m a jrm .a a .
f tration of l'resiaent urant, ana mat
American securities are equal In value
to gold, although they were 17 per cent
below it ; and even that violent Demo-:
cratic partisan, James Brooks, a mem
ber of Congress from New York, was
constrained to admit In his speech in
the House that "our public credit has
been lifted to an enviable position
ihroughout the wholo world." -

Tlie Fair Grounds. There is a talk of
moving the Fair Grounds. Whether moved
or not, the grounds should be- arranged so
as to nave every ounaing outside the race
track, and seats should be erected so that
the people can view the races from be
ginning to "end. There is great room for
improvement in the arrangement of the
grounds, and we hope the new President,
Mr. Thomas M. Holt, will infuse new lite
into the Society, have the grounds properly
arranged, and get together at our next Fair
the largest crowd and more articles on ex
