M'PfTI t " H W. II KITCHIN, OWNER WE MUST WOKK FOE THE PEOPLE'S WELFARE. SUBSCRIP1TON $1.50 PER YEAR VOL 3. SCOTLAND NECK, N. C FRIDAY JANUARY 7, 1887. NO I erPi s LISTEN WHAT A CLEVELAND JOURNAL SAYS. Tlie N, Y. Star, the strongest acU ministration paper in the country, charges upon the authority of Dan Manning a !o33 of $30,009,000 reve nue yearly at the port of New Yerk by undervaluations of imported soods; anil goes on to say the fault is not ill the law, but in its execu tion. Listen what it says: What we need is a corps of va'uinsi officers such as ve had wien Uooerf.J. Walker was seertta r.yofthe Treasury, appraising by su?h equitable ami open methods as obtained when Augustus Schell was tiie Collector of ihe port. The fli -cials who have held over from lis publican administration are not of that stride Neither are the Treasu ry aeuts who are supposed t se to the correction of errors and -the detections o'' delinquents. Whatever may be done :tnut the law, there is no doubt what must he done about, the local cusfoms force. It must bo changed it ii til tie authori ty of t.d minis ration no longei rests with. those who cmnot or wilt not do honest and efficient work. We must return to reliance upan Democratic mm as well as upon Democratic methods if we want to save the cm if.eri ial honor of the pott of Ntw York." Good Lori!did j-oucver hear such an endorsement of our position from a Cleveland journal. A journal that sneezes every time Cleveland coughs. Listen, road it again, it is too good to be lost. 'lWe must re turn to rel'aice upon Democratic men as well as Democratic methods, if we want to save the commercial honor of the port of New York." Did you ever hear the like berore? Is this not exactly what we have Said first, last and all the while? "It must be changed " Of course and why don't vour Loss turn out the?e Republican officials and put in boni est Democrats. JNow tuts is nice. Hie istar can say this, and that is til rigltt, but if we presume to say as much we are dis'oval. Good, THE GREAT MEN OF E RTII. We are sit k and tired of so much gush and non-sense over every Re publican when the Lord has seen fit in II is v. lsdom to cut down. In the estimation of the South, judging from some of our exchanges, Abra ham L:ncoIn was the greatest man the world has ever produced, Grant the next greatest, and then comes John A. Logar. The dead body of each of these gods were put on exh ibitiot;, that an idolizing world might view their suj rome granduer, greatnes and goodn-s. ihe South hater now es in state in 'he rotunda of the N iiional Capitol that his idoliz-rs of the Norlii , and tkie hypocrite an I feyeOjihsiits of the South ca:i show their !oe and euerarion for the de parted, anil pay homage t the dea I body, and lienor hi3 great statesmanship, general ship, magssnirnity and Christain virtues. This pane? has neither lo- e nor veneration for any such nor has it much respect for any Southern man wtio gees into spasms over their departure. WHHTT? BE DONE" If th ; De noeratic art des res success let it 1 1 once curtail the annual expenses of the national gov ernment at lea-t fifty million dollars anl at the same time and in the satie act, if psihla. reduce the tax es one hundred million. This will give and restore confidence, it will give rcliel to tie eople, it will de prive the manufacturers of the priv ilege anl power to extott frooi the I euple three or ft ur hundred mill ions of dol'ars over and above the cost t-f production anil the legitimate profits of their l.nsiness. We have charged the Republican party with fmmltrng and &tealiujr year'r lr m fifly to one hundred millions of t!ie people's money, and we wcr-simple-minded enough to bdie-ve the charges tru-j and we stiU bed. eve the cha:ges true. We told the peo ple, if they would restore us to pow er we would save tliat amount. Now if we fail to keep that pledge are we not obnoxious to the same charges of extravagance, corruption and untaithtuinessr It tna same amount of taxes are collected and expended under a Democratic ad ministration as unaer a Republican administration, what have the eo pie gained by the change, and espe cially what have then gained if the RepubhcaDa ar3 retained in office under a Democratic administration? Our leaders ought to seriously con sider these things' and act accordingly- ROTATION IN OFFICE To be a National Democrat,a man must worship the men in the White IIousj and confess that the Demo cratic party i? taken up by absorp tioi and is centered in him. Td be a Democrat in North Carolina, we pre sume a man must .support Thomas J. Jarvis for Governor and then lor United S'.ate.s Sonato.-. Well, we have no oljectioN to any man in the State, who A els so disposod, doing just as he pleases in this matter, but as for u?, we shall lake no Cleveland nor Jarvis in ours. We have aie'el in honoring both of these gentlmer t:me and again and we l ope them great success in the positions they now hold ; I ut we ihhik tLere are other eq-ally as able, vorthy and available men as they are, who can come as near as either of these gen tlemen in carrying the United States and the State of North Carolina in 1888; and if it should .ever come to p iss that any one mn shall be indispensable to the salvation of the Democratic partv, we think lie par ty had better disband. If its life and success depends upm smcIi a slender thread, it cm not live long. Put us down on the side of rotation in office, all things else being equal. WSfFKR, DEU BROTHERS, ANS IVER. Let. tho e who are continually caiping at the Democrat, the Wil mington Star a tin other soLei.ui.adul terated Democratic papers, acswer one or two questions which we will uow propound. Must we endorse, throw up onr hut-, and hurrah fur our side, when our side is doing ex actly what we i.uve been denouncing the other sid? for the lat twenty Tears and beciuse of which they were driven from power by tli3 peo ple in 1881? Please answer this so beily. candidly, honestly and with Dtinocratie courage and with brodis s riy love. We -are more pruned st lieart and tic-f j.dy mortllied to be j constrained t- disagree with such non as fill thj n ost exalted po?i tions now within the gift of tiie pto-.; pie. Corriip'ioi, extravagance,' fraud, maleficent and all manner of. wreaks were chirked against ti e Kep-iblican par'y before 1881. And as a proof of o .r charges, we ver and anon referred to the amount of money unjustly collected and expend e 1 vearly by the Reouhlieian party. Now tlie square truth is, we have colleete i" and expended more money yearly since we have been in power than the Republican party elid. You say it was collecteel and expended according to law. Granted. But under a Democratic administration laws .wre passed and approved by a Democratic Pre si lent wliic'i made it nai-e'ssary to expend more money than under a l'-pu- lican ael ministra tion. Thepensioi obligations are, we lelitve. 1G,000,00o more than heretofore vn ti e river and the har bor ii!l abont 000,000 mie than usual, bat these aniiuats were un jus'lv added 1 1 t It 3 burdens ot th people by a Democratic a lministra" tion. And now tliis sann alminis- tration proposes to exp nl from $2o,ooo,ooo to loo,ooo,ooo more upon coast defences. Every dollar used ov.-r five or six millions i.i for tifying the six thousand ruiles of wa ter line around tiie United States, will be so much noney e'xlorleei from the tax-payers for a useless purpose. ,ve eloubt whether over one or two millions ought t be used. Three thousand miles expance of water separates us from all foreign pow ers. For nearly one hundred years, while we v. ere growing from infancy t manhood, n nation has ever threatened to invade our soil or bnnbard our seaports. Is it reason tide to suppose, now we are full jrown as a nation and a power among the powers of the earth, that any one or all of them combined, will ever attempt to invade our country or even attempt to si ell our cities on the waters edge? We say not;and in our judgement ail this to do about seacoast defence.--, is anothor plan to get rid of the surplus aud keep tlie present war taxes up, and thj ywkes upon the necks of the people. This is our opinion, and yet we exptci lo be charged with being opposed to the party, because we have honesty anel manhood enough to speak what we think. We don't care if every ma i, wo nan and child in the United Slates think wc ought to spend mill ions on coast defences, we enter our disseut from any such a proposition to get rid of the surplus; and we dan't care wbo it pie isss or who it displeases. We -have digressed i little, but we mow come to our sec onel question. The present tdmin istration is doing all in its power to repudiate, disgrace, e'emonetize sil ver and destroy our areen-back cur rency. Now must we, in order to be in harmony witli the cranks on our idde, say this is Democratic and join in with the traitors ai d aid in break ing down the coblest, grandest and roundest political party that tvr controlled tlie doctrines of the peo ple? Well we shall, not do it to please Tny man or party. This is our country as well as yours We have an inheritance here as well as 3'ou, and we mean to ttand by the principles of the party as we under stand them. We have read what our exchanges have said uon raising the salaries of the judges. Well, we thir k $2300 is enough these hard times for any ju3ge. We would not ob jeet to a bill allowing each, judge say three hun .reel dollars to cover travelling expense. We don't Le lieve any judge now on tlse bench was making from ids profession at the time he was elected jud e rnn'e ttisn tw nty-five hundred dol lars over his traveling expenses, and we don't believe they could make so much now at the bar. And if lley think they can let them resign and try it. AlMheir places can be fill ed as ably as the' aie now filled from the ranks of the profession. We are not in favor of doing any th.inz more for office-holders or office-seekers , until thre is some thing done for the people. If public servants can't afford to serve thepub lie for the salar.rs attached to tLeir olfices let them return to private life. There is no compulsion to hold office. If our contemperaries really kaew how poor our people are , and how hard it is for them to make buckle and tongue meet, they would not consent to lay one pouuei of burden more upon them. Wait gentlemen , uotil we can see and feel that grand and glorious prosperity in thi state of which 30U so proudby bjast. The prosperity and good time of which you speak have not put in an appearance in thi3 seclion yet. Nor.e of our judges are suffering, and if tl ey . are, the people are suffering still mere. IKOSS SATING JIACIIIES. It is a very serious question in our mind, wlelher the invention , of labor saving machines, to the extent they seem deS'ined to go, is bene ficial to the laboring ciasses of the human famih-. The more inventions and the more perfect they do their work , tlie more labor the accumula ted capital of the world can dis pense with. For instance, it form erly took ten shoe jankers to make shoes for one thousand people six months, whereas now, with labor saving machines, twa men can make shoes enough to last ten thousand people twelve months. Suppose some inventive genius, that did not have three grains of common-sense in any other department of human industry, were to invent a pel feet machine to pick out the cotton crep of the Ssuth, with one fiftieth part of the labor new employed in h.s housing? Dn't you see forty-nine la horersout of every fifty in the South during the three fall months would be out. of employment a:id on star vation rations? Of course it wrnild benefit the cotton grower, but it Tculd Le death to the five mill. on cotton pickers who Bow house the cotton crop ot the South. The same may be said of all kinus of work. If every man owned a small farm Kuflicient to support hims.lf on and sbtlter him and - his ftom the storms of winter, then these ma chines would enable each individual to give more time to the cultivation of his mind and for other leisure or rather non-lucrative callings. But as not more than one-tenth of the Luman race own land, what will be come of the other nine tenths , if this one tenth can o'ispensa with the labor of the otuer nine-tenths? Wesdth accumulated in the hands of a few has neither soul nor mer cy. Neither money nor power has any feeling, sj'iapathy, charity or mercy. Dependence , poverty, help lessness and want would be kicked about by wealth and power as foot balls , if they shouhl ever get full and completecontrol of the destines of tho race of men. It i3 said that corporations haye no swuls. Wealth, power and authority combined are utterly devoid of any of the attri outes f Goi. and would if allowed, ride rough shod ever Deity Himself, much less over His creation. And herein the dangers to tin liberties of the masses lie. Seventy of the wealthiest men in the United States can in twenty-four hours put the price of meat, floar, cotton, wheat or any other commodity produced by the twenty millions of laborers in this country up or down just as it mty suit-their plans of speculation. They can at the tick of the wires , put the necessaries of life out of ihe reach of the majority of the p?opla. And they are enableel to do this bv lahor-saving machines and by the combination of their wealth, and its coacertration upon any one article at a time or sny half dozen commod ities at cue anei tlie savae time. This enormous and dangerous power ou?ht to le taken away from that clas of people at once. tli3 bond holders, bankers, railrotds, teh graph companies and manufacturers control the legislature of Congress and cf all the States, and until this power is krokeu, this influence de stroyed, there is ne-t, mr can le.any. hope for the masses of the people The surest way to bring abent hon est legislation, is t elect none but honest men who have no interest in these corporations. Let the work beg!n in the next election. xv A n e: i okest. One hundred thousand Baptists' I earts in North Carolina have been made glad with great joy by the no hie and magnificert gift of fifty thous and dollars to the endowment fund of Wake Forest College. This dona.! t:on is all the more gratifying and in spiring because it came from a North ern man-and a Baptist. Tlie Lord must have inspired and moved the heart tf this Christian gentleman to make this splendid gift to our noble institution. Not only Baptists' hearts have been mr.de glael in th i State, but five hundred thousand other christian hearts in the St te join with u? in re joicing and thanking the noble giver for his bigt ess of heart, and great ness of soul. Itisagiand impetus to the cause of education all ver the State. Twici Wake Forest has been l orn, emee before the war and once since the war. She struggled in her in fa- cy I efute thi war to aK most womanhood, but the war wreck ed hor hop-'S and Haste.d her pros pect-1. After the war she started not where she left off, but where she first began. Bv the indomitable, and invirci- ble efforts of the Trustees and the Baptists of the State , this institu tion after the war, almwst Phoenix like, rose from its ruins until now it ranks with the foremost colleges of the South. This College hasjust be gun its career of usefulness- We still expect (jod to move upon the kearts of his people, as he diet of old upon tlie face of the waters, until tie endowment fund shall retc 1 half a million and Wake Forest Col lege shall stand at the head of the list of the colleges of tiie South. God bless Bostick and all other noble hearted Christian genilei who are inspired and moved to such uoble deeds of love, chari'y, aud thanks-offering, ilay their roles be washed as white as snow, and their names be exalte 1 and honored in the kingdom of God. TARIFF. Powerful monopolies, unjust an i exorbitant elutics cn imports, and number It es restrictions on cotntnerce have almost stopped exportation and importation. In irut.li it uimv I e said that the United States ni:-.k.3 what they constim ; ii;d consume wl at tbejT make. We s ek no maikets for cur productions ai el 1 commodities ia foreign lands a- el al low no lo:eig i proiuctioas or com moelities to c me here. This course pursued by the Protectionists, is iu opposition to the laws of nature ai d the laws of trade. No country eve: prospered or can prosper uneler such restrictions ind prohibitions. Cotr inerce ought to ba frse an I untratn inele l; trade and barter, the first law of o'ttical economy, can nut succeed or piospcr without the greatest liber ty and tUe least restrictions. The policy pnrsued by the Protectionists since the war will ultinately ruin and impoverish beyond retlemptien the American people, if tolerated. We mu3t have markets for our own production. Our people caa neither buy nor consume all we produce, and none but cruu'cs can so believe. Ev ery citizen ought to bj allowed lo sell in the highest mirkets and buy in the lowest market3.JTo forbid this, is to stifle trade, hedge in com merce, bring about stagnation in business, ai.d super-induce ruin and poverty. It would be very unjust to remove the Tariff from sugar, wool, and r'ce. but to do so would drive thesugir, ricj, aid w.) )1 pro lueers of this country in tiie Democratic party, and would enable this party to remodel tlie Tariff and put all Tariffs on a revenue, basis. Suar pays 55.000,003 dollars into the coffers of the government. Tnis is $25,000,000 more than it ouht to piy. Make the Tariff half what it is now, and it Would be a clear sav ing to the people of mo.e than $loO, 000.000 yearly. Foreign merchants woulel impeirt in to this country double what they import now, and tnat would raise fifty million doliars revenue and save the people in the ie luced prica of sugar more than one hundred million dollars. It woullnot be so profitable to the Louisiana sugar grower, to be sure tuc why shouhl the susiar grower in Louisiana be protected any mote than thi North Carolina cotton grow er? Why should the the s agar men, tb3 rice men, the iron men, tin steel men , and tie wool mentrecieve mora consideration from the govtrn meny han the whe?t and corn raiser, the cotton gmwrer, the plower, the black smith, the doctwr, the lawyer, the farmer the d t;her or rael split ter? Yet the government tax s each of the latter class near fifty per cent.on evervthu g he consumed for the special benefit of th1 former clashes. It is wroig, it is mean, it j is oppression, it. is down-right rob bery to levy a contribution on tif iy live million of people for the sreciai benefit of three million.
