: to defend fioin a charge of murder a
i colored nun who had been his father's
i slave and the companion of his boy

; is an eloquent proof .to the colored
race that their best friends are to be

: that the slave owners of the South

The Statesville Mail says that the
i editor of The New Era is not ignorant,
i but knew that if Col. Dowd's men had
done their duty, the recent arrests in
i ftuthorford county would not have
: been made by Clark's crowd. If the
i Mail had read the report of the investi
f ration of the occurences, if would have
5 known that so far from there having
been any dereliction of duty upon the
; part of Col. Dowd's men, there was no
.violation of law by the alleged; offen
' ders. The Mail tries to absolve Craw
ford from any participation in the ar
' rests by saying that he has been trans
; ferred to Tennessee. This is true,but
, he was still with Clark at the time of
I the outrages in Rutherford county,
i The only thing we have to regret con
; cerning Crawford's transfer is that he
j was not transferred to private life i

j A Marked difference between -the
! policies of the two political parties
which has been developed recently: in
I intei views with their respective leaders
; is the way in which each proposes to
get rid, of the surplus hi the publie
j treasury. Democratic leaders want to
'.reduce it by cutting off the supply and
lessening the taxes, while Republicans
i are desirous of keeping up the' stream
of gold that is now flowing into the
j federal treasury and preventing its ac
cumulation by large appropriations for
all sorts of publie works.' Those who
! believe in the old Jeff ersonian idea that
the people should do all they can for
themselves and Jook to the govern
; ment only for protection from injustice
-i must still vorte the Democratic ticket,
i An application of this principle in other
i directions would also be at least the
proper solution for many of the prob-
; lems whieh surround' the labor ques
; tion. --- -- - j
The revolt against Mr. Randall has
extended to Philadelphia. For a long
time, the Beeori, the only Philadelphia
newspaper that has Democratic prin
ciples.has been showing Mr.Randallin
his true colors and now the Young
Democratic Battalion has charged him
with being the author of the degenera
tion of the paity in Pheladelphia. Then
agaiq, there is a strong feeling in far
vor of displacing Ir. Randall from th
chairmanship of the Appropriations
Committee of the House of Represen
tatives. All of these tilings show thai
the Democ ratio party is awakening to
the necessities of the times, that it
feels that it cannot live upon the past
nor, however much it may honor hini
for them, give to any man for his past
services a position in which he may
harm the party or prevent the success
of the principles it professes and of the
measures which it believes the condi
tion of the country now required.
There are one or jtwo men in North
Carolina who may will learn a lesson
from the fate of Mr. Randall. Power
in a party does not and should hot rest
npon past services, however eminent,
but npon present principle and capat
city. . - '
Ik its report of the railroad meeting
held in Shelby last week, the Morgari
tou Star signally failed to give the
spirit of themeeting, but this was al
most inevitable from the small amount
of space which the exigencies of news
paper work permitted the editor to
to give to the subject. : But our con
temporary was guilty, probably inad
vertently, of a manifest injustice to
ward a eitizen of Cleveland county in
speaking of Major Schenck . as the
spokesman of the Shelby, Glen Alpine
& Cranberry . Railroad Company.
Major Schenck was in no sense a rep

; ing or proposed railroad corporation,

portion of the county, the section in
which he lives, and the one most inti
mately interested in the construction
of the railroad under considera?
tion. So far from being the spokesmau
of the Shelby, Glen Alpine & Cran
berry Company, Major Schenk, ; we
thought, made it plain that he should
favor that company which should give
as the greater and earlier returns for
our money, provided, always, thathe
specifications of the vote should be

the ignorance of the largest section of
the oartv iu t is state, if they would
look at their p pers, they would find
one reason foi this in the disingenuous
and unreasoni ig radicalism of these
journals with out one or two excep

Charlotte with hi? eolored servant, amd
that the Weed familyand the girl had re
cently diped with thePiesident andMrs,
Cleveland,and, if we remember aright,
that the ladies of the Cleveland family
had kissedMrs.Wee.' tndthenegressat
parting. To any reasonable man this
was a lie out of the whole cloth. Last
week another Republican newspaper
stated that all the Democratic papers
of the state whose editors are not fed
eral office holders, are, with Vance,
opposed to the renomination of Cleve
land. In reality.a large proportion of
the Democratic press, we believe K
large majority, is m favor or his le-
nomination. these are only two in
stance of what seems to be the gener
al rule with most of the Republican
press of the state. ' Papers of this sort

THE TOWS EI.CCTIUW.
The date of the municipal election
is rapidly approaching and it is quite
time that our, citizens should make up
their minds as to what they are going
to do about it. The matter is one of
more consequence to the future of
Shelby than . might, at first thought,
be imagined.
The next year will be one of great
importance in the history of Shelby.
The railroads that have been built
through the town during the past year
will largely modify the conditions of
business in Shelby. Our people must
make up their minds to lose a portion
of their old trade, but the field before
them is wider j than ever. But they
must be capable of giaspinjr the new
conditions. ,
New industries are about to spring
up in our midst and new people will
come among us. In this period of
transition from the old to the new, the
character of the city government will
exercise an unusually large influence
upon the future of the town. '
For mayor, we should have a man of
broad and comprehensive views, con
servative, yet enterprising and firm,
but reasonable in the execution of the
laws. The aldermen should ?be men
who will look after the interests of the'
tax payers, and second the efforts of
the mayor in any projects he may
have for the welfare of the town.
To find such men for our municipal
offices should be the effort of our citi
zens. ' . . j
THE NATION AL COMMISSION.
Wilmington was particularly anx
ious for the passage of a railroad com
mission bill at the last session of the
legislature, and presumably was much
in favor of the Inter-State Commerce
bill; but Wilmington is now anxious
to join :with other southern cities in an
effort to make permanent the; tempo
rary suspension of the "long and short
haul" clause of the bill. But this is
not more singular than the fact that
the people who are loudest in demand
ing, the suspension of the clause refer
red to, the gist of the bill, were most
clamorous for its passage. '
It is almost confessed that: the bill
was a mistake. It has been put into
operation under! the mCst favorable
circumstances. A large majority of
both' houses of Congress voted for the
bill, and there was no question of par
tisanship in the matter. The commis
sion that has been! appointed under the
bill could hardly be surpassed in per
sonel. Yet its first operation results in
a serious disarrangement of the com
merce of the country and almost every
community wants its own railroads
excepted from the operation of the es
sential feature of the law.
What more than all else occasion
ed the passage of the bill, was a fear
of the growing power of railroad com
panics and corporations in general. So
far from this power being checked by
the bill, there is reason to fear that it
will be increased; for the growth of
the tendency to consolidate has been
vastly accelerated, until it would not
be unreasonable to believe that the
day may come when all the railroads
will be, owned by: a few corporations or
by the government. Whether such
centralization of financial power or of
governmental functions would be the
more deleterious to American ihstita
tions, it would be hard to predict.
The interference of the government
as far as warranted by the bill is, after
all, but the first step towards govern
merit a', ownership of railroads and the
paternalism of the nation. It. has re
sulted from the loose political ideas in
culcated by the Republican party, and
increased by the decadence ! of real
political thought in the South and the
predominance of the commercial over
all other instincts in' American life.
If the bill and its logical consequences-should
rouse the people to the dan
gers of the tendencies that have pre
. - : ' .... " .
vaued m American politics for the
last quarter of a century, it ; will have
accomplished a great purpose, but not
the purpose of its frainers. :
1 THE AWAK1XU.
ROBERT BURNS WILSON. J
The silent great heait of the earth from
the dream of deep death is awaking;
Her budding breast yields to the love
of the life-giving spirit, undying,
Who bends to unfold her fair beauty
from slumber's white robes warmly
breaking;
Her evelids Enclose-, and her tresses
are stirred by the breath of hur.righ
in.
( From our Regvlar Corretpondsnt). ,s
Washington, April 15th 1887 "I
have seen all soits of receptions'' said
one of the tired,disgusted ushers at the
White House, "but I never saw anj--thing
like this before. It was simply
awful." He was alluding to the scen
which took place in the East Room on
Ester Monday, the day ou which,
though a time honored e us torn, the
children of the Distiict of Columbia
are allowed the privilege of the White
House grounds for the purpose of egg
rolling. At the hour for the Presi
dent's tri-weekly hand shaking they
took advantage of their opportunity to
pour into the Executive Mansion', and
tne jam mat ensuea ana tne aeons
that followed their presence there, as
well as on the ground, was amusing
It required a large ' force of men the
greater part of the next day to clean up
the egg-shells,orange peels, papers and
other remnants of the -frolic.
It is the dull season, and perhaps
subjects of conversation are scarce,
but I doubt whether anything rela
ting to the President was ever more
discussed than that absurdity about
his request to have a private passage
way made for his use alone at one of
the popular theaters of this city. Of
course he made no such request nor
had any such desire not ever even
thought of such a thing.- There prob
ably never was a more pemocratie
Democrat than he, and if he were less
so, he does not attend amusements of
any kind sufficiently often to want any
special conveniences for himself.
The whole dreadful truth about the
matter is that they are having some
new exits and entrances constructed
at Albaugh's theatre because they are
needed, and one of them, usually
closed, can be opened at any time to
et persons in or out. The President
became tired of seeing the statement
published that he had requested a pri
vate entrance for himself, and stated
that he bad never been subjected to
incodvenienee or difficulty in reaching
his box, that he had no objection to
passing through the auditorium,1 and
that his wishes were not consulted in
tegard to changes that are under Iway
at Albaugh's. So that bit of gossip is
explained. ,
The Senate which closed its session
on the fourth of March was composed
of forty-two Republicans and thirty
four Democrats. As newly consti
tuted, it will consist of thirty-inine
Republicans and thirty-seven Demo
crats. The President is being advised
to call both Houses of Congress to
gether in extra session next August or
September. He will not do that, nor is
it considered expedient by his best
counselors, but it inquire probable that
October will find Congress in session.
he President is quoted as saying that
the Forty-ninth Congress left undone
many things that it should have done,
and that -he intended to erive some
thought to the subject of an extra ses
sionit his earliest convenience. 1 His
auditor remarked that if Mr. Cleve
land believes the public good demands
an extra session he will call one in spite
of the presiding genius of Hades, that
he was just that sort of a man.
It seems Private Secretary Lamont
finds his official life rather monotonous
as far as gossip is concerned, and does
not understand why he is permitted to
remain undisturbed in his position,
since the ill-wishers of the administra
tion have been so persistently Officious
in breaking the President's official
household. Higher officers than the
Colonel have been made to resign re
peatedly during the past two years,
and why should not his turn come f ',
When a newspaper man asked ; him
which would be the next big appoint
ment he replied the new private sec
retary, I suppose. When asked if he
was not afraid to perpetrate such a
joke as that on even a moderately en
terprising news gatherer he said, "Not
at all, why should I be afraid t I have
enjoyed nearly all the glories of pub
lic office except that greatest glory a
quarrel with the Administration and a
resignation. I think it is fairly my
turui now to come in for a little of the
fame which grows out of a resignation
of office which is not resigned. - Go a
head," continued he,"and say Ihave re
signed." The newspapers had confer
red almost every other distinction npon
mm he said, and they would set it all
right at last anyhow

The Grand Jurors for the State beg
leave to make the following report :
- Jhey have carefully examined the
public buildings and, while they find
them in bad condition in several oar
ticulare, they are glad to say that steps
nave been taken by the County Com
missioners to repair them, thereforer
we think it unnecessary to explain de
fect in detail fuither than to nay that
in addition to the repairs ordered to be
made to oar court house we'feall atten
tionjto the fact that there should be
rooms prepared for petit jurois to re
tire to, while making up their verdicts.
This; is a necessity which we think the
couaty authorities should no lonper
neglect. -
Oar jail has for a long time been re
ported in bad condition and while the
necessary repairs have been contraeU-?
: . I
for. we urgently insist that it be: done
atonce. It is unsafe, as the timbers
supporting the floors are giving . way,
and it will, in our opinion, end in fall
ing through if repairsjare not soon
made. Further delay, will be criminal
upon the part of ! the county. " The
prisoners are cared for as well as pos
sible under the circumstances, ; .
We also find the county . authorities
taking steps to build a new poor house.
It is needless to say that the old ones
are almost untenantable. ; But, while
such is the case, we find the inmates
well tparad for. They are neat, clean,
comfortable and contented and we are
largely indebted to Mr. ,W. A. J, Ham
rick and his wife for the comfortable
and tidy condition of things under
such circumstances. While our publie
roads'are not such as they i shoull be,
we are glad to notice that recently
some work has been done, which, if
completed, will make very nuiked im
provements in roads which h ye been
in poor condition.
As our county has an annuil finance
committee, we have thought t unnec
essary to examine the boofe of the
county. Respectfully submitted, i
