Hill is from the News & Observer : WAshinqton',- D . 0., July 8, '92. Col. AV. E. Hill, Faison, N. C: My Dear Sir; I have just had a pleasant chat with your son,, who stopped here on his way to New York, on rjolitical conditions in vour section, and he advised mo to write to you my views on the questions now agitating the minds of our peo ple. 1 have concluded to follow his ad vice because I am certain that vou feel as much anxiety as I do for our children and our fetato. As to the general objects aimed at in the St. Louis platform 1 have no doubt that you and I agree ; but we may not Le entirely as ne as to the methods of attaining the objects Take the ownership of railways, for examplo, and let us compare opini ons.. Of the fifty-seven railways in North Carolina, thirty -five made re ports to tho State llailroad Commis- sion. in wnicn wo una tiiat tne man- flprera and emDlovees not including attorneys, physicians and othorn who uepeuu uuuuLiy wi iiiuireuny uu tuo railways for their support number J.1,772; and if the other twenty-two roads had reported, the number would doubtless! reach 12.000. Now if the Congress Bhould purchase these railways, tne appointment oi tnese 12.000 ablebodied voters would be thrown into the hands of the Presi dent of the United States, with tho would be largely argumen ted just be fore elections ; and united with all t.hfl other '. benetichu'ies of executive favor, they would constitute a dange rous political force m the State. They would exhibit a powerful influ , - , 0, once mcouufcy huu owwwuvenuons; and, co-operating with the vast army of their cotemporaries in all the oth- er states some of which have many ra;iwav emnlovees than North Carolina they would, dictate thfl re-nomination ana re-election nr - ----- -- tneir Deneiaccor; ana we snouiu soon intolerable corruptions of our elective lie BuectaciQ oi one unnoreu unn rrl. - " .1- - 1 t t . - - - - - - , , J 7 ' - . gates, and 2,000 or 3,000, a3 strikers forcing on their party at Minneapolis tllrt rpnominfltion nf fr. llamonn. th ft rfinomination of - Mr. TTRrrison. ought to warn us against the enlarge ment of the executive patronage. JLUUOC WIJU UUUC1 L tie;r aaVOcacy of the Trans , . .v-7 . . .. . PnK, Cite tne iact mat EOt XUUSC WIJU UliUUJL l,a&.U LU 1U1L11V sportation some Euro pean governments own and ojjerato the railways in their dominions, and that tho system works well. Thev forget, however, that in those conn- tries there is no quadrennial election of King or Emperor, inviting fierce and violent struggles for the reten tion of lucrative places. The consequences , flowing from government ownership of railways seems to have alarmed others as well as myself.. The Progressive Farmer, of June 28th, advised the Omaha Convention to "adopt tho first two planks finance and land" , and leave out the Transportation plank; and the Omaha Convention, itself, in its third plank says: "Should (he government enter upon the work of owning and managing any or all railroads we should favor an amendment to the Constitution by which all persons engaged in the government service shall be placed under civil service regulations of the most rigid character so as to prevent tne increase oi tne use ox sucn aaai tional government employes." Now consider this dilemma: Many County Alliances, sub-Alliances and District Conventions have pledged themselves to vote for no man who does not accept the St. Louis plat form and every part of it: and the candidate for President nominated by the Peoples party is required to accept one of its most' important planks, with a provisor, while the orgaii of the party in North Carolina advises that that ; plank should be dropped altogether. Now how can these pledged people .vote for Weav er ? . The Omaha convention took sub stantia.ly. tho position which I have maintained all the time. Amend the constitution and have all Federal officers and employes elected by the people or selected by competitive ex animation the members of the Cab inet, the judges, etc., etc., down to tho lowest paid laborer. Do this, and then the way will be open for entering upon such reforms as the menace of Executive patronage deters us from now. There will have pas sed away the cause of bitter dissen sions among the people. I need not tell you that my warm est sympathies are witn tue unpro tected and despised masses as against the protected and favored classes, but in seeking remedies I must be governed by my conscience and my best judgment. And if 1 cannot get all I want I will take the best I can get. The Federal - despotism con trolled by the plutocrats and their beneficiaries and beiichmen, rein forced by all the monarchists in the country, must be checked in its mad career, if civil liberty is to be pre served or, rather, re-established for our children. In order, however, to accomplish anything for them selves, our people, iu my judgment, must stand shoulder to shoulder. In their auger justifiable, . as it is they must learn to exercise patience and tolerance, and maintain a pru dent regard for the consequences of their actions. Suppose that, failing to do these things, the People's party nominate nine candidates for Con gress in North Carolina, and the "straight" Democrats do the same thing, there would be clanger. of liuvinrr in tha f'At Plminrreaa niiia T?o. publicans froroC Jtf orth Carolina to voto with thejSnts aiid plutocrats, and if ptheLouthern States were equally unwise, Mr. Reed might carry out his threat made before the American Club, in Pittsburg two years ago : ''It seems to me that the only wise course is to take into Federal hands" the election of Pres ident and Representatives in Con gress. "Let us cut loose from State elections, do our own registration, our own counting and our own cer tification." Mr. Harrison urged this course in one of his messages, and the Minneapolis platform re echoes the demand. The result of our dissensions, then; ' might b that we should bo bound hand and foot by a tyrannical plutocracy, with no power to rescue ourselves. , Some people are disposed to pooh pooh the Force bill, but they have not correctly interpreted the signs of the times. . Just as Andrew Canie gie's man Frick brought in a band of armed mercenaries to compel the submission of his discontented labor ers, so will what Mr, Kingsbury calls the "money devil" urged by fear as well a3 desperation, resort to . any effective means of depriving the peo ple of any voice in legislation. These, my dear Colonel, are the views expressed to your son. I have given them to you at his request, and I beg you, if you can see things as I see them, to exert your influence for harmony among the people and against hasty and perhaps dangerous conduct. . . , Trusting that the God of our fath ers may guide us in the path of safety, I am truly your friend, B. F. Grady. WE WIL.L CARRY THE STATE. The editor of the Rocky Mount Argonaut knew what he was doing when he penned the following : . While it is true that almost the entire strength of the Sd party will be taken from the Democratic party j iU,t i.i : j ii . . i r uuu buuo wviv is uauger mat til IS defection may turn the State over to the Republicans, yet if the Demo crats will do their duty we can beat both the dd party and the Republi cans, and carry the State, not only for the State ticket but for Cleveland and Stevenson. It will be a shame and disgrace for the great State of JNorth, Uarolina to be betrayed into the hands of the enemy by the with drawal from the Democratic ranks, under the influence and leadership of unprincipled demagogues, of those who nave heretofore voted with us. Let us stand by our colors and fight it out on the line of true Democracy. We have already yielded too much to an ignorant clamor, instigated by men who hoped to gain personal ad vantage by the political confusion engendered. So far as the 3d party is concerned, it is stronger to-day than it will ever be again. Its leaders hoped to carry the Alliance with - them but have been sadly disappointed. The de fection is confined to the less inform ed. So far as we have learned scarcely an intelligent, prominent Alliance-man has allied himself with the political abortion, , and many good, honest men who have been misled, will return to the Democrat ic ranks .before the election. The people of Worth Uarolgia, from the days of the Colonies down to .the present, have always been found true to the best interests of their State, and we believe they will continue to be, except a few of the more ignorant, who can be easily in fluenced by the specious reasoning of demagogues and demagogical papers. All that is necessary is for tho peo ple to be true to themselves, and Democracy, and the State will roll up a Democratic majority for every Democrat this fall. , Let ns show our erring brethren the fearful evils their course threatens to entail upon the State, and they will stand shoulder to shoulder with us when the time of trial comes, POLITICAL POINTS. The Chicago Tribune calls it the "dead Force bill." Will other Kepublkans fol low this example ? Will the President or Mr. Reed or Mr. Lodge say as muoh? Will it really be dead if the ltepublicans win this election f N. Y. World. The Bepublieans who are elaimiug In diana as "sare for Harrison" know; if they kaow anything about tue political situation in the two States, that Illinois is aa likely to go for Cleveland and btevensou aa Indi ana is to go for Harrison and Keid. N. Y. World. Aocordiug to the lie publican organ, which perceived a want of enthuitiasm, in the Madison : Square meeting, which cheered ten' solid minutes for Qrover , Cleveland, lainruany is still aa "fcuheu" aa it was last fall, when it helped Mr. Flower carry the State by 47,000 plurality. N. Y, World , ; Brayer Shepard, cf the New York Mail and Express, rises to remind the BepublL. can campaign managers that the determina tion of the third party people to put tickets in the field in the South : presents them a fine chance to capture some electoral votea for Mr, Harrison in Dixie, if they hustle as they should.--Star. V . The Third party seems to be on the trade and ready to fuse with any party that will promise additional votes for their candid. ates. They are fusing with Democrats in the West, playing with the Bepublieans in the South and in Georgia trying to make a dicker also ; with the Prohibitionist. Auguta Chrenlole. I Mr. Cleveland presents the tariff issue with the utmost distinctness and foroe, not as threatening any legitimate interests, but as insisting upon the interests of the whole people as paramount to the interests of the few. And his refreoee to the Force bill Iniquity U in the same spiritthe spirit of true Americanism.--Phil, Times. . Committee of New York has again failed to hold its expected meeting; and . Chairman Carter's committee of five which is to raise the caiih to save the country is still unan nounced. The O, 0, P- appears to be in a state of tie-up or lock-out in the pivotal Btate. The President himself may yet have to go to the front. Phil. Record. lhat this session Las not been fruitfdl iu good works calculated to relieve the bur. dens Republican plutoeratio monopolies have fastened on the people is not the fault pf the Democratic House, the direct repre sentatives of tho people. We will have a Democratic Senate and President as well as a Democratic House after Mar oh 4 next, however, and then there will be a change, Saratoga Sun. Organized labor is no more responsible for the crime of the crank .who hot Mr. Frick than the Southern people were re. sponsible for the crime of Wilkes Booth, or than the Stalwart Bepublieans were for the crime ef Ouiteau. If the Homestead work, men had wished to injure Chairman Frick or to destroy the Carnegie works they had abundant opportunity to do mo before the advent of the militia.' N. Y. World. , DROP IT OR TIGHT. . . ' ' -. ' r- , N. T. World. Will the Republican leaders definitely abandon the Force bill or bear its odium through the campaign without daring open ly to.defend it ? , Mr. Beid and Mr. Lodge seem disposed to drop it. ' The leading Bepubliean organ of the West calls it "dead." . What is Pres ident Harrison's idea ? What does Chair man Carter think about it? We can assure the Bepublieans that the Democrats are more than ready to accept the issue, as their platlorm and the speech of Mr. Cleveland show. But they do not like to Btrike the air, nor te throw Javelins at a hobgoblin. They prefer a contest np. on olearly drawn isroes like the worse thsn war tariff or the record of the Harrison Administration. The Democrats, furthermore, are quite as mueh in favor of a free and honest bal lot and of the right ef citizens to exprecs their will in election and to have it re corded and counted as the Republicans ean be. " The Democrats have passed more ballot-reform laws than the Bepublieans have enacted, But the Democrats know that such a measure as the Lodge-Hoar bill would not secure such elections, while ft would stir np strife and imperil both the proper independence of the States and the liberties ef citfeeus. . ,; - They will resist that measure to the end. Thousands of conservative Republicans are with them on this question . Will the Re publican leaders drop it, or defend it ? WHAT FARMERS SUCCEED. ArgonaaL The farmer will succeed who makes up his mind that the whole secret of success 8 himself ; .that it is the uad and tot the business that tells. He will succeed if he sticks close to his frm as the mechanic does to his shop, and not expect to work three or four months, and then take his ease the rest of the year. That farmer will succeed who takes the papers and digests what he reades, and is not afraid of new ideas and new methods of industry. ' He will succeed if it is his Intention that what, ever he. sends to market shall be the very best, and so made and put np that when seen it will be captivating for its freshness, clcanlineeb and purity, and will be unhesi tatingly taken on account of his well known character for honesty of weight, ineanure and cosnt. , These who have farms may think them selves fortunate, for although they will not thereby .find sadden roads to wealth, they will certainly prove that persistent farm labor will bring a sure reward. It is wor thy of notice that the adventurer and speculator, with blasted hopes and shat tered health and fortune, have in the end to come back te the farm for health and safely. Agriculture is the basic of national strength and wealth, and a most certain and liberal support of all who follow it in- telligently. ; DEM O C RATIO PLATFORM. Tne following is the State Demo cratic platform as adopted by, the State convention assembled May 18 : Rsboltkd, 1. That the democracy of North Carolina reaffirm the principles of the democratic party, both btate and natio nal, and particularly tuvor the free coinace of silver and an increase of the currency, ana me repeal ox -tne internal revenue system. And we denounce the McKlaley tariff bill as unjust to the consumers of the oetntry. and leading to the formation of tracts, combine and monopolies which have oppressed the people ; and especially do we denounce the unnecessary and bur denaeme increase in the tax on cotton ties and on tin, so largely used by the poorer portion of the people. We likewise de nounce the lneqmtoug foree bill, which is not yet abaudoued by thj republican party, but is being urged as a iuaxure to be adopted te oon as they regain control of the llonse of Representatives, the purpose and effect ef which ntcasare will be to es tablish a second period of reconstruction in the Southern Suites, to subvert the liberties of our people and inflame a new race an. tHgonism and sectional animosities. 2. That we demand financial reform, and the enactment of laws that will remove the burden of the people relative to the existing agricultural denreasiou, and do full and ample jasliue to tLd farmer auj laborers of our country.
