Entered at the Post-Office . at Oxford second-class mail matter. . as OXFORD, N. C. Monday, - November io, 1890. Cheatham will now very probably have control of the federal patronage in North Carolina, It will be fun to see the white Republicans bowing down before him soliciting his influ ence. .- Crisp and Blount, cf Georgia ; Mills, of Texas ; Breckinridge, of Ken tucky ; Hatch, of Missouri , and By-? num, of Indiana, are mentioned as the next Speaker of the I House. Judge Crisp appears to be 'in the lead' just now. BLAINE WARNED HIS PARTY. The newly-elected congressmen will begin drawing their salaries on the 4th of March next, but unless an extra session is called the Forty-Second Congress will not meet and or ganize before the first Monday in De cember, 1 89 1. By the way, will the Oxford DAY,in its own good way, arise to say why the dramatic company of that place never visited Durham ? Durham Globe. Principally on account of a matrimonial alliance and the political campaign. Performers in the play could'nt leave home, you know. It is agreed all around that Demo cratic press did a full part in winning the victory. It conducted a campaign of education that educated the people sure enough to the iniquities of the McKinley tariff and the Lodge force bill. In this instance the pen was mightier than the Republican boodle. t -m . . Cowles' election is now certain. The North Carolina congressional del egation will stand : Eight Democrats, one Republican ; Democratic gain ot two. The opinion is expressed that if Rogers had remained in the race Cheatham would haveshared the fate of Brower and kwart. We will make a clean sweep o'f it next time. Credit is due the colored voters for the independence they displayed at the election. Many of them voted the straight Democratic ticket. Prof. Sran dison, one of the most intellectual men of the negro race, said his people, are beginning to think for themselves and will never again follow solidly and. blindly the lead of the white Republi can bosses. It is evident they thought last Tuesday at least, some did. It was known months ago that Sec retary of State Jas. G. Blaine, by long odds the ablest man in his party, was opposed to j the radical legislation forced through Congress by Speaker Reed and his lieutenants. His tariff letters to Senator Fry. in which he said the McKinley bill would not open the way for the sale of another bushel of wheat or barrel of pork, will be re membered. His remark about the Lodge election bill, that he would sooner have his right arm torn from its socket than vote for it, is also fresh in the public memory. Mr. Blaine foresaw that measures so manifestly unjust and un-American would not meet with the endorsation of the people, and meant disaster to his party. It has just transpired that he flatly told the Republican leaders that they were digging their own po litical graves and denounced and raved over their idiocy. This happened be fore the Senate finance committee last July. Senator Blackburn gives an ac count of the scene in an interview with a reporter of the Washington Post, published in that paper last Thursday. Here is the gist of it : Senator Blackburn says Secretary Blaine appeared before rhe committee, accompanied by William Elroy Curtis, and a bright, brand new silk hat. He The Atlanta Constitution thinks that the sensitive pocket had a great deal to do with the recent political rev olution. It says: "The Republican leaders have been taught by the result of the late election that business inter ests are supreme. A party may play some very fantastic tricks, and com mit many follies, but when it smites with a heavy hand the business of the country, its days are numbered. Dem ocrats, too, should heed this lesson in the near future when . they come to shape our economic policy. Business is a bigger thing than politics." appeared to be in a good humor until Blackburn asked him his opinion of the McKinley bill, which had just pass ed the House. This was the signal for the outburst. m 1 he secretary colored up in an in stant, andsaid : "This bill is an infamy and an out rage. It is the most shameful measure ever propsed to a civilized people. Go on with it and it will carry our party to a perdition. Senator Blackburn said he suggested that it would be a good thing for the country if Mr. Blaine was in the Sen ate, so that the opponents of the meas ure might have the benefit of his as sistance. I wish I were," was the secretary's reply. "If so, I would stamp it under my feet and spit upon it." Then advancing toward Senators Allison and Hale, he snapped his fing ers under their noses, and with rising inflection, said : "Go on with your drivelingid iocy, and see to what destruction it will lead the Republican party. Pass this bill, and in 1892 there will not be a man in all the party so beggared as to accept your nomination for the presidency." Mr. Blaine then proceeded to dissect the bill in a merciless manner, and when informed of the sugar bounty clause, which had been added, he said: "It isn't true." Being assured- that Senators Morrill and Edmunds -had secured such an amendment, Mr. Blaine said : "Its a good sample ot the breadth of their statesmanship." . , "And then," says Senator kBlack burn, "the climax came. The secre tary's new beaver was in easy reach. With a sudden blow, he brought his clinched hand down on it; with such force as to mash it flatter than a pan cake, and then, seizing the battered chapeau, he hurled it against the wall violently. I never saw such an ebulli tion, but it only emphasized the deep earnestness of the secretary." Blackburn's interview is confirmed by. friends of Senators Allison arid lf Hale, who told in confidence the epi- sode at the time it happened, j It has caused a great sensation, and it is Mr. Blaine's greatest regret that he allow ed President Harrison to coax him into taking the stump for McKinley and Quay.
