RATHER VOTE FOR THE IEVII.
Some of the Third partyites ex
claim that they would sooner vote
for the devil than for Cleveland
or Harrison. Either Cleveland or
Harrison will certainly elected to
the presidency, and if the latter
gets a second term and starts his
Force bill to 'work, the South
will be something of a Hades and
our people will think his Satanic
majesty has a hold on tliem sure
enough.
PROMOTION.
His many friends in this State
and he is deservedly popular
with the people will be glad to
learn that Col. A- B. Andrews has
been promoted by theKichmond
& Danville Railroad receivers to
the responsible position of their
general agent, wih general sup
ervision of all the properties of
the system. Major W. A. Turk,
wTho is another officer of the R
& D. highly-esteemed by the cit
izens of the Old North State, has
also been promoted, and is now
general passenger agent.
WHAT IT MEANS.
rJhe Republican parfy make no
secret of its purpose to pass the
Force bill. While it is aimed
primarily at the South and would
do the greatest mischief down
here, it would deprive the North
and the West of their rights
to free elections as well. It is a
blow at the republic.
How it would operate in the
South the New York World says
"every man who has even the
smallest knowledge of the condis
tions knows. It would threaten
prosperous States with a rule of
corruption and license like that of
the carpetsbag era. It wrould set
the two races, now 'friendly, into
deadly hate again, It would
threaten every specie of property
with the destruction of its value.
It would undermine industry with
-. . . -ii L 1
r lstrnst miri nnno cnaosinio ouss
w - ' ' - CJ
iness. It would check and per
haps des'roy that prosperity
which men mean when they talk
of the New South.' '
DO YOU WANT IT?
With the Force bill a law and
bayonets at the polls, the South
ern States will bo turned over to
negro dominion; our State aud
county treasuries will be sacked ;
taxes will be largely increased;
our property will greatly depreci
ate in value; capital will shun us
and our industrial development
stop; there will be constant and
bloody conflicts between the races.
The Republicans will without the
shadow of a doubt pass the Force
bill if they get the presidency and
control of both houses of Congress
at the next election. Our white
people are confronted with a freat
danger. Their only hope is in
voting the Democratic ticket.

may deposit the same at any mint
of the United States to be coined
for his benefit, and it shall be the
duty of the proper officers, upon
the terms and conditions which
are provided by law for the deposit
and coinage of gold, to coin such
bu llion into the standard dollars
authorized by the act of Feb. 28,
1878, entitled 'An act to authorize
the coinage of the standard silver
dollars and to restore itslegal ten
der character,' and such coins shall
be a legal tender for all debts and
dues, public and private. The act
of July 14,1890, entitled 'An act
directing the purchase of silver
bullion and the issue of Treasury
notes thereon, and for other pur
poses,' is hereby repealed: "Pros
vided, that the Secretary of
the Treasury shall proceed to have
coined all the silver bullion in the
freasury purchased with silver
certificates."
Repudiation of the Third party
by prominent farmers of North
Carolina goes bravely on. The
thinking men know that this is
no time for division in the ranks
of the Southern whites. A vote
for the Third party is a vote to
continue high tariff, to multiply
crusts, to help "the passage of the
Force bill and to keep the Repub
lican party in powrer for an indefi
nite period. We must stand to
gether or together fall.
It was reported and printed in
most of the newspapers of North
Carolina that Senator Mat Ran
som said at Chicago, when the
struggle for the nomination was
in progress, that Cleveland could
not carry this State. The Senator
says that what he really did say
was "Cleveland can carry North
Carolina, but we must have a man
who can carry New York."
It is the custom for the newspa
pers, as well as the postofiice and
banks, to take a day off on the
gloi icfus Fourth of July. This ex
plains the non-appearance of The
Day yesterday.
Senator Hill voted for the Free
Silver bill.
