THE SECOND CONtJEESSIONAL DIS.
I TRICT.
j From time to time it has been re
ported that the health of Captain
1 Boeers would not admit of his
j canvass of this district, and that
he would withdraw his candidacy
for Congress. When our editorial
, of Wednesday was written we
; supposed that it had been definite
ij ooiuou iu uo n uuiu wuuiiuo,iflmnaiiii fta nnr PAnRA rc(inir(i in
iu the field, but it is again reported
that he will retire and Captain
Kitchin take his plaoe as the
Democratic candidate for Congress
in the Becond district of North
Carolina.
It is known that the Journal
warmly advocated the nomination
V.r i .
of Mr. Simmons, bat when Captain
Rogers was nominated we at once
advocated his election. ITe have
regretted his illness, anil we yet
trust that he will continue in the
field and win a glorious victory.
But if this cannot be we are ready
to follow the banner of the gallant
Kitchin.
If the Democratic party was not
a party of principle these changes
of leadership would be exceeding
ly embarrassing ; bnt it should be
of little consequence who carries the
flag when it is remembered that it is
inscribed with immortal principles
consecrated to national Union,
States rights, local self government,
personal liberty and domestic
security.
Every man in the Democratic
party is supposed to be a patriot
who is ever ready to sacrifice per
sonal ambition on the altar of his
country, and stand by the standard
bearer of his party whoever he may
be, regardless of past preferences
and personal partialities,
t The approaching Congress will
be one of the most important that
ever assembled, and North Caro
lina should present a solid front in
the advocacy of the sound prin
ciples of government illustrated in
the administrations of Jefferson,
Jackson and Cleveland.
Again we admonish our readers
to be sure that the next Legisla
ture is Democratic. If party
spirit and sectionalism the greed
of gain and the power of money
prevent the success of the national
Democracy, we will still be secure
if North Carolina is sheltered and
protected by the Democratic Legis
lature. We have no fear of the Alliance.
Alliance men and Democrats are
one in North Carolina. Their prin
ciples are the same, and whatever
differences may exist as to methods
will be speedily adjusted in the
interest of the people without
violence to the spirit of the Con
stitution or the genius of American
institutions.
Wake up Democrats. There is
bnt one way for the-Kepublicans to
succeed and that is by perpetra
ting frauds while the Democrats
are asleep. To lose victory by
supineness is not only a public
disaster, but it is also a personal
disgrace.
The Richmond Dispatch says:
"The Administration seems deter
mined to make a desperate effort
this year to wrist West Virginia
from the Democratic column and
place it in the Republican line.
We trust it will be disappointed.
No Buch effort stands a shadow of
chance of success unless supple
mented and sustained by fraud."
Stop that knocking at the door
Republicans. Just pull the latch
string and walk right in and see
how good a fellow feels in the
company of Democrats. We have
plenty of welcome and good cheer
for all patriots without regard to
color or former political opinions.
"Come and go with us and we will
do you good."
William Sprague, Jr., grand
son of Chief Justice Salmon P.
Chase and the only son of ex Gov.

dency, it is said, prompted the
suicide.

Editor J oubn a l : I noticed an article
in the Journal a few days ago in re
gard to the "Co-opera'.ivo luaiiufac
turing Company" of New Berne, which
received my hearty endorsemmt. V'hy
j ia it that the Company thus formed has
never made any progress ? Iwiilhere
, Btate the reason as far aa my kuowied(?e
jgoee: When tua Lorncany wa3
hrst
city
formed trie business men of the
were looking forward to a roo 1 fail
trade, but o-ing to the (Shortage of
crops their vnectatiooB were i-ct
realised, Laanj i our most jirorai'-u tit
merchants and business men being
losers by their previous con:r..ei-:
therefore the prime movers in the .ini-i
project did hot push the matter. You
are aware of the fact that Mr. Wm.
Lorch and myself worked hard for two
weeks canvassing the city for subscrip
tions to said Company. We received a
goodly uumber of names cf the boot
citizens to the cause above mentioned.
After we had secured the tanie. we
called a meeting, which was held at the
court house, and moat of said fub
ecribera were present. Speeches were
made by our most prominent men in
behalf of said project. I am glad to
say I did not endorse all that was eaid.
In some of the speeches some one said
let us erect a factory at a place called
the "Lakes" below New Berne.
Another said it would be had policy to
allow another party out of the city to
take more than was represented by the
stockholders of the city, as said party
would have the controlling interest and !
rule the Company. Another stated
it was impossible te run a factory of
any kind here and mahe it pay, em
ploying the labor of our city, giving E8
a reason the laborer would not make
the time, it being too trilling, leaving
their work whenever there was a picnis, ,
a circus, or excursion.
Now, Mr. Editor, I was manager of 1
the first manufacturing establishment ;
of this city and employed city labor,
and I can confidently assert I made the
hnsinHH ntv and that handsomely. I
speak of the tobacco factory of Messrs. 1
Walker, Jones & Co. I confess at hrst
I bad some trouble in employing the
proper labor, but after a little 1 suc
ceeded in getting that which I could
handle with profit.
There is one thing certain, if a bucket,
wash-board, basket or furniture factory
was started here, and received proper
management, it would pay and that
handsomely.
Let us have the factory. Let ui call
a meeting of the stockholders of the
Co-operative Manufacturing Company
for Monday night and get all of them
to attend not to make long speeches,
but come for business and act on tbe
matter at once. We have already suf
ficient subscriptions to start a furniture
factory that will pay a good profit. We
can increase in capacity as our demand
will be. Very small things have de
veloped into great establishments, with
careiui ana proper management.
What has become of the New Berne
firm that was going to commence a
wooden manufactory a few months
ago ? Has tbe project fallen through V
I understand a firm in Baltimore of
considerable means and ability was
anxious to take stock in said Company.
Why was it the Company formed did
not accept their offer ' Was it because
(as one of the speakers stated at the
courthouse) they did not wish to take
nnA in thn firm with mnrfl mnnnH And
ability than they possessed 'i I do not j
know the reason, but I do know the j
factory was never started. ,
nuw i(db tiuuQ iour manu tt ubiuuum ,
effort to do something. Let us start a j
factory with our present subscription,
and increase according to tbe demand.
Let us organise and elect competent
men as officers at once, and start out to
succeed. Why stand ye here all the
day idle ? Help yourselves, and God
will do His part as He has promised.
We have been drones in this city too
long. Let us wake up to a realization
of our condition and come forward like
men and go to work in earnest, for
until then we can do nothing.
Respectfully, W. E S.

Agreeably to appointment, W. A. B.
Branch on Friday and Saturday of last
week addressed tbe citizdns of Pamlico
on the issues political, to the entire sat- 1
is faction of a!l Democrats who heard
him; and I predict for him the largest j
majority that has ever been given to
any Democrat in this district.
Our county canvass begins on nest '
Saturday and will continue to the end .
Hon. F. M. Simmons is billed for an
address at Bayboro Tuesday Our farm
ers are so busy that I fear he will be
greeted by a small crowd.
The wet has materially set the farm
ers back and cotton pickers are in much
demand. If we can only have good
weather the ginnera will have all they ,
can do. Cotton is yielding well. Xich.
Swindell, a tenant of C. H. Fowler, ',
picked over twenty-five acres week j
before last, and has ginned and packed
fourteen bales weighing 450 to 500 lbs.
He used home made fertilizers.
Jno T Parsons has set his dutch net in
our waters, and if he is as successful as
hook and line fishing has been, our
community will Le supplied with all
they want.
From tbe present outlook there will
be a wedding in the near future of one
of our old batchelors. Better late than
never.
