There is 110 safer counsellor in the Democratic party than the distinguished Senator f from North Carolina, Zebulon 15 1 Vance. He is the idol of his people at home, for they have unlimited confidence in lis wisdom, ; If his counsels had been listened to in 1860, rwe should ave had no great Civil War at least not then, for he declared l ld ly for the Union. But when the war came on he went bravely with and for the people whom hegyjid. Every honor the State of North Carolina could, confer has been giv en him almost without ; the asking; and so faitiVfji! has he been to every trust that he is now everywhere known as the .people's friend. When, therefore, recently, the fann ers of the country, feeling as they ju-itly do, that the laws of the land li-scriminate against-them unjustly, organized themselves for self protec tion and began to look around for a leader, their eyes'--' najUir-ally rested 011 Zob Vance. f Fo him they turned to introduce the sub-treasury bill, a measure that seemed to proniise Hie relief they so much needed. Mr. 'nnce introdu ced it ''by recjiiest.'"- ri'his left him of course free to consider the bill carefully on its merits ami he did SO. -'-:' In the mean time - it was natural that the farmers should look with favor on any .proposition to put them 011 equal, footing with "those for-whose lienetit they had been so long robbed' and plundered by the iniquitous legislation bf the 'Repub lican party the money-kings and the protected manufacturers. So there, has leen a mighty movement in favor of the'"sub-:trjasfury bill, and fanners, especially in the South, have been demanding of their representative- pledges to support it. Of course these Representatives' were anxious to do so. They naturally desired'to ilease their -constituency. But when they examined it. objec tionable features began to appear, going even to the very principle on which the bill was founded, and so one after another leading men in the House and Senate came out and de clared the bill to be unwise, inex pedient and inconsistent- with the Constitution , which every legisla tor is sworn to support. Many of (hese gentlemen knew when they gave they iipinions that a majority of their -constituencies favored the bHlV but to their lasting credit, lie it said,' that not one- single prominent Democrat of the House or Senate has . hesitated, When called to give his opinions freely, even at the risk of defeating his re-election all of them against the bill." So unani mously has this opinion been given even in the fac of danger to them selves that the story has been' put in to print that a caucus was held on the question by the .-..Democrats in Congress. This is absolutely false, and as silly tls it is false. J)cmo- crats agree on this question- jupfafor ;j the same reason that all stood to gether, whether from the North or South oh the ''iniquitous Federal election bill that has just passed the House and fjjuight it as one man just as they all stand .together now 011 the unjust tariff laws of the Re publican party. The-country is to be congratulated on the spectacle. Lord Brougham many years ago de clared that constitutional govern ment '.would fail in Aiheriea, because mere' Parliament barriers would never stand in the way of personal ambition but this prophecy is never to come true so long as the Dem ocracy, comprising, as it does now, more than; half the voters of the country jdiall have leaders patriotic enough to sacrifice themselves rath er than violate the Constitution. This is spirit of the old Roman who r3de into the" 'V'gnlf .'-'.that lie might save his country .' How strange it will be if Democrats shall allow theuisel ves to be persuaded by self- seeking politicians to set aside such servants ais these for the sake of a measure which cannot by any possi bility ever; become law. Indeed, thejo is not a prominent man 111 either party-" to-day in public life who has declared for the bill Certainly the Democracy never can aduocate it without sacrificing that spirit of devotion and love of theConstitiitjon, which holds them touether to-day as ;i band of brothers from Nouth, South,, East and West, battling agairfst tin just taxation against Federal eluction laws', and for the autonom' of the States for ever. Most assurhdly the Democrat ic farmers of America, when they look this question squarely in the face, will conclude that the class legislation of which they now so justly complain cannot be remedied by other legislation just as objec tionable and even more palpably in violation of the Constitution. The true remedy is to be found in those ideas for which Democrats contend. And the lines on which the battle fi?r the increase of the currency and the reduction of taxation are to be fought lie straight before us. The battle is to be between lhe'Temocra cy on the one side and the Republi can party on the other. The Re publicans favor the issue. They are seeking to strengthen themselves in position by Federal election laws and ever' other possible legislative de vice. The Democracy needs in this fight all the experience, all the abil ity it can muster. This js no time for bringing untried material to the front. .''There has lieen danger that the quarrel in Democratic ranks over the subtreasury scheme would de prive their party in the House of some of those whose services are in dispensable in an hour like this. But the National Democrat hopes that this danger is fast passing away. Surely the; true Democrats of the country in face of the overwhelm ing testimony as to the impractica bility and unconstitutionality of the sub-treasury scheme will not per mit themselves to be diiven away from the support of those, whom they have heretofore trusted, sim ply because these leaders have had the courage of their convictions. -They ought rather to be honored for their fidelity to trust. The letter of Senator Vance will go a long way to convince many who have here tofore favored the sub-treasury scheme that it is thoroughly im practicable . Many will reluctantly come to this conclusion none per haps more reluctantly than the Sen ator himself, yet that is the conclu sion he has arrived at. To those Republicans who have entered Democratic alliances with the intent to break up the Demo cratic party, Senator Vance's . rea soiling will not be satisfactory, nor can any 'amount' of Democratic au thority be sutlicient to convince men who for their own political ad vancement are making use of the present discontent among the farm ers. Neither can any argument whatever be successfully addressed tolhose who are now profiting pe tmniarily by .advocating the sub treasury scheme. Itu not to be ex. peeled that they will relinquish? their profits. But the Democratic farm ers of the country will think for themselves, they will weigh the argu ments presented by such men as Senator Vance, Carlisle, Coke and other trusted leaders, and when they do there need lie no fear for the integrity of the Democratic par ty, always the truest and best friend - Of L the people National Democrat, Whisperings of a great subeuie tor developmeutrtu I improvement at Morehead City reach us uow aud then, definite details have not beeu given out.

Williamson, . the colored politician was here yesterday look ing after matters in connection with 1 great convenuon or colored peo ple to be he ldhere next month.' 1 Williams did some plain talking in a political way. He said the con- vention would be held in Raleigh August 19th, and that every section of the State would be represented. le said the object . of this conven tion was to organize the colored peo ple so they could escape from the ong "bossism" of the Republican party. "We are the Republican party in this Stse," said Williamson. "No white Republican ever got an office in any county or place that we did not help him get. They have been riding on ua into easy, places for a ong time now, and promising to give us some of the plums now and then, but we don't get any. .

If Mr. Hewitt could be induced to viiit Gieesboro' and ex amine the properties of the North Caiolnifi Steel ami Iron Works, he would stari le the country with the bolder prediction that Bessemer .steel can be made in unlimited quantities at less cost than any place on the :iabitable globe. Not an hour's ride by rail from the place is, the historically famous OreHjIi 1 1 on Mines. They were first worked by the Continental Government during the lievolu tio'nary War; subsequently by the Uiii'i d States Government during the war with Mexico aud ater by" the Confederate St ites govern ment. The vastness of the work and the lack of transportation fa cililies have defied individual en terprise until the recent purchase of the North Carolina Steel and Irou. Works. Among the wealthy aud public spirited Carolinians who compose this organization are James A. Odell, president, a Well known merchaut aud manulactu rer; Julian S. Carr. known all over the world as the manufacturer of the Durham Smoking Tobacco; A. B. Andrews, vice president of the Richmond and Djtiville Railroad system; Julias A.

These names io Nortli Carolina staiid lor the highest business men integrity and sagacity. They rep ie-.cut wealth, enterprise and cou servatism. They mean in this on instance a safe and profitable investment. When the articles of incorporation were signed by them it meant a successful enterprise.
