"Our daughter, Blanche, now fif
teen years of age, had been terribly
afflicted with nervousness, and had

We feared St. Vitus dance, and tried
the best physicians, with no benefit.
She has taken three bottles of Dr.

gone, she attends school regularly,
and has recovered complete use of
her arm, her appetite is splendid." &

The liepublicau party in North
Carolina proved itself to be incapa
ole of managing public affairs wise
ly, discreetly, honestly, and pros
perously, says the Wilmington Mes
senger. That is plain, solid, unben
ding truth, the whole truth, noth
ing but the truth. Its record is
me of folly, of extravagance, of in
famy. It plundered the people,
robbed the school children, bank
rupted the State. It did all that was
possible to do that was evil and vici
ous destructive. It left undone all
that was good and right and benfi
cial. Hard words, but true words.
The white men of North Carolina
who liyed between 18G6 and 1870,
know how this was. The rule of
the carpetbaggers, the scallawags
and the black an tan annex was a
rule of ruin and robbery. If we
could get hold of the campaign book
of 1870, we could bring out the
startling figures of the crimes
and plunderings of the Radi
cals. They show a degree of political
profigacy and personal debauchery
that seems now beyond belief. One
Legislature alone, fully under their
control, ran up the State indebted
ness to about $42,000,000. The
State then was too poor to pay the
interest even on this monstrous rob
bery. Of this great sum the people
have received but very little benefit.
One Southern woman from New Or
leans fallen, depraved was in pos
session of $100,000 of these bonds.
She said she obtained them from a
certain Railroad President of North
Carolina. Mr. Josiah Turner, in the
old Raleigh Sentinel, used to tell of
all this villainy from day to day un
til the people understood the whole
lesson of moral degradation and
financial ruin.
In a recent issue of our valued
contemporary, the Asheville Citizen,
there were some few points n the
black record of the black radical
party, that ought to blister and blur
the memories and names of the ras
cals who perpetuated the villanies
and bring shame to the consenting
feilows some now seeking office
who did not have grace enough to
even hang their heads with humili
ation while their party was carry
ing out its plans that prostrated
everything, violated all honor, made
the State a byword and reproach,
heaped debts mountain high and
robbed wholesale the already well
nigh ruined people by the long war
and the disastrous results.
And this is the party
that the
ernnsr
misled l opunsts are ainea
i IT 1
with in 1801. and hone with them
to gain possession of the control of
the State. Woe woeth the day
when that comes to our dear old
mother North Carolina.
The Citizen shows that a Radical
Legislature with some two thirds of
the members or more, (19 negroes,
severel not able to read or write) at
once entered upon their raiding and
robbing. The treasury was emptied
early. The school fund was made
way with. It says, and although
an old story will be new to many:
"Four hundred and twenty thou
sand dollars ($420,000) of stock in
the Wilmington and Weldon and
Wilmington and Manchester rail
roads, which belonged to the educa
tional fund for the benefit of the
poor children of the State, were
sold by the Republican State Treas
urer for only $158,000 which was
paid out to members of this legisla
ture at the rate of $8 per day.
Not satisfied with robbing the
treasury and the public schools, this
august assembly of carpet baggers
and negroes determined to work the
credit of the State for all it was
worth."
Then the fun began and the mon
ey flew and the people were plucked.
It was a mad, cruel Saturnalia of
scoundrels and ringsters. A ring
with a Yankee soldier, Gen. Little
field, at its head was organized, and
George W. Swepson his confederate
and backer. The Citizen tells the
simple truth when it says that the
"ring demanded, and in many cases
received 10 per cent, of all appro
priations passed by that Legislature.
This ring bought the Legislature,
giving orders on G. W. Swepson for
the money. A regular bar was es
tablished in the capitol of the State.
Railroads were chartered right and
left, Bonds were issued for the
stock of the State in all of these
projects. n this way, in less than
four months, this Legislature au
thorizing the issuing of bonds of the
State to the extent of $25,320,000.
Other schemes were also worked,and
when this Legislature adjourned
North Carolina, counting her old
debt, was prostrate beneath a debt
aggregating the frightful total of
$42,000,000. At that time the tax
able values of the State were only
$120,000,000. County authorities,
emulating the example of the State,

sum thus thrown away paid by
helpless and overburdened people of
our State. It was the most vicious,
the most open display of corruption
and robbery that was made by the
plunderers of any of the several
harrowed and pillaged States of the
South. The record is dark with vil
lian and most damning to all en
gaged in the rioting and stripping
spoliation. r
And now after some twenty years
of prosperity under Democratic sr
premacy and benign government;
after the State has steadily and
surely advanced'in prosperity; after
its schools and colleges have been
placed upon a high plane of success;
after the railroad system has been
greatly developed and perfected;
after taxes have been reduced well
nigh to one-fourth what they were;
after long continued law and order
and the prevailing of good will be
tween the races, it is now asked that
the grand old party of the Union
and the Constitution that has
brought all this and much more
that is good to pass shall be set
aside, and hungry, disappointed, in
capable, and in many cases unprin
cipled demagogues shall be placed
in power, and control the destinies
of a great State with more than 1,
700,000 population. The proposi
tion is monstrous. Let the white
men and the colored men who wish
well to the State and have a proper
regard for their own interests be
ware, and see to it that such an un
mitigated curse and calamity does
not befall North Carolina.
