Bowie.4 the Democrats did and that it is verj; improper for him to attempt a satire upon his political oppo nents wheiAhe Republicans name ed, were the only ones in his party who had sense enough to go crazy upon any tiling. He calls the Dem ocratic tariff a free trade measure, although it was highly protective and contained some schedules written by Republicans. It had no feature that even remotely related to free trade and if he doesn?t know this he ought to go read his pnmer. How wonderful a legislator he and this silly canard do make of the v Democrats! That party had not lone a bit of law-making for thirtjfour yearswhen it came in to power, and it had. then but two years in "which it could legislative ly disport itself. But such wis the strength of our party that its tariff law took effect one year be fore it was enacted and the poverty that attended it reached into the billions. V -v . 'And the Hon. E.

The Whites swore con sistently on the stand that they did not mean to kill Sherrill. They swore that if he had refused to marry, their, neice, they would have had to' leave him .at 4ome. And all this time, cotfhsel were thundering "kill the seducer, he must die,y and the rest, whie the defendants were swearing they meant to do no such thing.

He was telling of the hard work asd small pay which are the lot of virtue may be regarded nil toefhiraself and his fellowsjn the poor er districts of the country. And he . closed with this tremendous question. "How shall. a man sup port a sealskin wife on a muskrat income?" The epiram may pro voke a smile, perhaps, that same' question never before so weilput, has vexed many other men in and out of the ministry. Attempts to I answer it have ended before now in the penitentiary. It is that' question, if authorities, are to be believed, which is responsible for MR. BLACKBURN'S SPEECH. In all of the Hon. Spencer Black burn's ramblings Saturday, there is not to be found room for serious debate. There would never a word be said but for the fact that he talked recklessly and the necessity fox having some one to reply to him is plainly apparent. Blackburn has re nra ted ttyii by -alTn F tflsTCrt - iting Newland that if he can't beat the Democratic nominee, he can't beat anybody. We say only what allmen know, that if Blackburn can' beat Newland, anybody can do it. If the lato- Senator Ingalls said one thing more than another that epigram "Honesty in politics is an iridescent dream." An so despite Blackburn's frequent appeals to the Democrats to "got decent, be honest" and the like, the wis .leffersonian will keep his eyes-' up on Eoluribus. He is not honest i and he knows it. What Democrat has not grown weary denying the imperishable charge that the Wilson-Gorman tariff law of laSH reached back a year and caused the panic of 1893? That's just what Blackburn sa'u in his speech Saturday. -He de clared as his party platform dc clares, that Democratic tariils have, always been followed by bus iness adversity and Republican ftlwavs bv business prosperity - - - There's not a word of truth in this and if Blackburn has as much in formation as a f ried ovster, he knows he is not telling the truth The panic of 1878 came upon the eoiintry following (i rant's second inauguration and this was under a Republican tariff. The panicof 1803 came on under the McKinley tarif and that piecej of legislation was one of the causes of that depression. This panic, which was almost vorl I wide, was also attributed to that demagogical device, known as t iie Sherman Silver law, a Republican contrivance, and . to other minor matters extraneous to this country. There is another thing. Black-bum'-has learned juul Jearncd to pronounce correctly tUat eup lion i ous combination used by -X.Wola and Brann, "irrevocably fixed' and related by Judge Parker.

This paper has never said a wrord con- ccrning the case until it came to!

Our young friend. Spencer Blackburn who is runnissfTor Con gress on the Republican ticket in the Eighth district of North Caro lina, disappoints us. We had been led to believe that he was a poli tician and knew that in the game of polics all was fair and that the policy of politicians was to admit nothing and deny nothing. But in a card in the Charlotte Obser ver he denies that he ever played a game of poker in his life this because some one in the audience when he was speaking yelled down with the poker player. ' ' Why bless his soul! Does he not know that in the game of politics that white is painted black and black white? Does he not know that when political scavengers come in that nothing in the world is sacred and that character, repu tation, all things which men hold sacred are dragged in the filth and slime? J)oes he not know that a 'campaign lie" has been floating as long as there has been politics in the world and that no matter what a man may not be guilty of he wiil be accused and must stand to the rack without murmuring, and without complaining? :,There is no use to deny it. The general public does not believe anything it hears for or against a man who is in the dirty boat of politics. -It knows that he will be traduced and lampooned and black garded; it knows that truth has no place in its economy so what it hears it hears and lets it go at that. The fact that a gentleman plays a game of poker in no way detracts from his ability as a National law maker, for, indeed, is not poker a Natienal game and do not some of the best and wisest and purest of our statesmen play at cards for money and booze? To be sure they do. Mr. Blackburn must not com plain. If this is all that is hurled at him, lucky indeed he can count himself. r airbrother s hver y- thing. " - Sale of Horses.
