Airy mews. : The Raleigh so-called Democrats can get op more disgusting and insulting scnemes tor personal aggrandisement than any set t vtln o nice-grabbers, and public tricksters that has ever confronted the Democracy of the Old North Bute. Salisbury Truth. From 18S3 to the defeat of 1894, the Democratic party of North Carolina had been throwing political sops to dis gruntled members or its party, and again is this , disgraceful "expediency being sot merely suggested, but , ad vised, for 1896. Newbern Journal. - Our political ethics do not recognize as lerimate the opinion, wnicn oas grown popular, that getting the offlees is the end and aim of political organisa tion, hence we. like tbe thousands or other Democrat who have not drunk la the political heresy, will never take any fusion in ours Monroe Journal. Those Democrats who are trying to divide tbe spoils or office with the pop ulist at tbe sacrifice or principle de serve and will receive tne scorn and censure of all honest men. If such a thing had been predicted two years ago as likely to be done now, no Democrat would have believed it possible! Cnat- nam Record. ' We cannot believe there are enough I Democrats in the State in favor of lay ing aside principle in order to carry an election, a procedure they so roundly and justly denounced two years ago, to carry a State convention for it. The duty of Juemocrata is to stand bp for their parfy and keep it clean from entangling alliances. Newton Enter prise. The party in North Carolina would no more submit to a trade on the basis of fusion with the Populists or any par ty any more than they will submit to a gold standard. looking at tne situation as a matter of speculation we do not see any sign that would make fusion possible in this State between the Democrats and Populists. States ville Mascot. It would be well'Ior the Democrats to take warning now and steer dear of all entangling alliances. We have but one hope for victory in tbe coming election. We must stand firmly on principle and avoid all "sops" to dlstffected oppo nents If either Populists or Republi cans wish to support the Democratic ticket, their votes will be welcomed, but the Democrats should never stdop to a "dicker. Wilson Advance. The man who favors a surrender of principle and a combination for the sake of a few offices has no business in the Democratic convention. If by any possible chance this element shonld control the Democratic State conven tion and effect a fusion with the Popu lists tbe deal wourd ba a failure. The Democrats would denounce thesaleand repudiate it. Fully seventy-five per cent, of the party would openly revolt and they would be right. Salisbury Herald. The Democrac ot North Carolina has played truant and deserted tbe land marks, and we hope the time will never come when it will look to Marion But ler for leadership The Democracy as a party ravers silver and many good and party, have never thought of. The Populists, most of tbem, left tbe Demo cratic party; but the doors have ever stood open and they may return and be come members of tbe household again, if they will. Almance Gleaner. We have no time for this talk of fu sion or Democrats and .Populists, it is simply a scheme of hungry politicians with insatiable areed for office. Hach fusion will never be. The Democrats of North Carolina cannot afford to make any trades. Tne Democratic party in this State has weathered the darkest storms of adversity, and it has never been guilty of trafficking in its own in tegrity. We want an honest, straight forward flgnt and if defeat comes let it come, for there is more glory in dereat in honor than in victory in disgrace Let the Democratic fight be made for principle, not for spoils. Monroe En quirer. The Democratic party in the North west has become a by-word and a re proach for the very reason that it stood ready to fuse with anything and any body that promised reward in the way of office, it has fused arid fused and fused, till it has loH its self-respect, lost the confidence of the publio and can t muster a corporal s guard. It now looks as if the free silver men will control the national party, and if the Populists are honest in their free silver views they will have no exouse for re fusing to vote the Democratic ticket So far as fusion with them in North Carolina is concerned on the basis of a division of offices, this paper is unalter ably opposed. Morgan ton Herald. Should the democracy enter into an alliance of this sort, which is nothing more nor less than a proposition to throw principles to the wind for the spoils of office, it places itself in the identical position it so vigorously de nounced through tbe columns of every Democratic newspaper in tbe State two years ago, when the same combination was entered into by the Populists, and t&epnDiicans. Then Democrats every where proclaimed Popullst-Kepublican fusion, for spoils, as dishonorable to both the parties to the bargain, and, in heaven's name, we would like to know how Democratio-Populist fusion in tbis year of graoe would be any the less dis honorable to Democrats we mean, of course to say nothing of theinoalcula ble injury it would be to the future well being of the party. Wadesboro Messenger-Intelligencer. Deelsioa In a Bank Check Case. Gastooia Oasette.

Costrer, Jones & Co. On what lines the opinion was framed we cannot cer tainly say, as it has not yet appeared in the publio prints Our readers are per haps acquainted 'with the facta in the case, since reference has hitherto been made to the matter in these columns. The question decided in the ease ap pears to be this: If A draws a check on his bank payable to B and stamps on the face thereof a statement that It will positively not be paid to C, can pay ment of same to O be lawfully en forced T Tbe Supreme Court says not, the inference from its reversal of the decision of tbe lower court being that tbe inhibition stamped noon thefaee of the check is a valid stipulation and is to be accepted as a part of the contract by all woe accept tne paper so stamped. It s an important caae and has attracted much attention in baokier and legal circles. . ; L :?.. . It Will Take t ooe.eoe Fay tfe Freaeh 8ptla41a Claim. i . i Wasbisotos.

By Soutbern Associated Press. Nnw Toi. April 24. Speculation at tbe stock exchange was strong early la th day, ana the trend or prices was upwaro, owing mainly to the fact that quotations from London came higher, and that the St. Paul statement for tbe third week of April was unexpectedly favorable.
