TH DUTY OF A VOTER.
It is important to the Democratic
party that its majority at this elec
tion should be overwhelming. The
party should not be content with
winning victory by the skin of Its
teeth. 1 1 wants a rousing and sweep
ing triumph in the way of endorse
ment of the constitutional amend
ment and approval by the people of
its record. It should not he satisfied
with a bare majority an election so
close as to give the Republicans rea
son to hope that they can carry the
State for their presidential candidate
two years hence but its victory
should be so decisive as to show to
the country that the principles of
Democracy are deep rooted in the
hearts of the entire State: that the
professional men, the mercantile class,
the promotors of the State's Indus
tries, the wage earners and the farm
ing element are united in the cause
and are determined that Democracy
shall prevail against Republicanism
within our borders, says Wilmington
Messenger.
Because there have been cut out of
the contest seventy thousand or a
hundred thousand negro voters is no
reason whjT a single Democrat should
show less interest in the success of
his party. Every white man should
deem it a privilege to cast a vote for
what he considers the true Interests
of his party and his people. Do not
look upon it as a personal favor con
ferred upon your party candidate to
go to polls and cast a vote for him.
It is not for that the right of suffrage
is conferred upon you. It is that you
may express by your ballot your sen
timents as to the principles upon
which this government shall be con
ducted. There are two parties, Dem
ocratic and Republican, seeking your
support, with ideas of government
as far apart as the poles, and as you
vote for the exponents of one or the
other theory so you ally yoursel
wltti that party It Is not the man
you vote for but the ideas of govern
inent his party advocates that you
endorse. Forget the man and vote
the principle. Do this conscientiously
and you exercise the highest privilege
granted a free citizen.
OVERWHELMING DEFEAT.
Y hen State Chairman Simmons
was asked what was the Democratic
prospect at the election, he replied
"Grand, grand! The majority will
be the greatest we ever had in the
State. The opposition Republicans,
Populists and independents will not
have as many members in the next
Legislature as It hadinthe last one."
That's bad news for American To
bacco Co. who is turning money loose
to elect Pritchard, and it will find
out that It cannot control the poli
tics in North Carolina even if they
have got millions of money benind
them. No, they cannot buy the true
manhood of the State as their prin
ciples are dearer to them than the
American Tobacco Co's money.
All the gentlemen running" on the
Republican tickets in the Southern
States will show up later In the ad
ministration's lame-duck depart
ment. Washington Post.
Whenever a Democrat plumes his
wings to fly over the fence Into the
Republican ranks, he usually rests on
the fence awhile and resorts to the
old plea that he is Independent. Yet
he does not fail to cast his lot with
opposition party, and abuse his for
mer associates. Such is independent-
Ism at present.
Pritchard's Deserter Bill.
Charlotte News: One good point
made by Maj London In his speech
at Roberdel in regard to Pritchard's
deserter bill, noted by the Rocking
ham Anglo-Saxon, is that his bill
reaches, only the most inexcusable
class of deserters. There was one
class of deserters, Maj. London said,
whom he never found it in heart to
criticise so harshly those who, when
desolation was spread all over our
Southland and sickness and starva
tion was found In many home's laid
down their arms out of an over
powering sense of duty to their
families athome.These are not reach
ed by Pritchard's bill. His bill only
includes those who not only deserted
the Confederacy, but put on uniform
of the former enemy, and turned their
guns on their former comrades. And
the Major got almost wicked ir, tell
ing- about how loner and how br. if
wouia oe oetore be would vote fnr
the man for the United States Senate
wno passed that bill.

DADDY OF INDEPENDENTISM.
We learn from a letter.in the News
& Observer that Marion Rutler says
he is the daddy of independentism !
And Pritchard wanted the indepen
dents to call themselves Republicans
at once. Butler didn't, and became
so disgusted that I decided not to
make a single speech." Butler says
they would "like lirst to be called In
dependent Democrats, and next Inde
penuenuents, and next anything to
beat the Democrats, but last of all
would they be called Republicans."

MAKING A MISTAKE.
The Charlotte Observer speaks a
truth when it says the Republicans
are making a great mistake in their
attacks-upon the Democratic State
administration, especially with refer
ence to tne borrowing of money to
make good a deficit in the Treasury.
A deficit is nothing at all unusual. In
this case it resulted from the simple
net that the Legislature -appropriated
more money than the revenue bill
raised, aud there was nothing wrong
about it. When the oeoole aretnld
this and told further that the money
was borrowed for the public schools,
the Confederate veterans and the
hospitals for the insane, the attack
reacts uuon the oartv m.-LkiiiH- lf
Iu this matter the Republicans ora
tors and newspapers are showing
mighty bad judgment.
