EUROPEAN AFFAIRS Some weeks ago We
took occasion to write short article on tins
subject, when, we must confess, our hopes IN
the early establishment of constitutional lib
erty in Europe, as a result Of the pending con-
vulsons there, were of rather gloomy cast.
Happy and rejoiced, indeed. are we that things
are turning out much better than we then
thought they would. From present appearan-
ces the present movement in Europe will do
more-has already done more-to disenthrall
the masses from the shackles of political sla-
very than any or all the events OF the last GEN.
fury and what we trust will render this great
movement particularly gratifying to every one,
is the fact that, to all present appearances, it
will be carried on and accomplished without
resort to bloodshed and carnage. Gratifying
indeed. in an eminent degree, must be Inc re-
suit Of the great popular election IN france
It was there that the worst was to De aPpre-
hended, but all has passed of in the very best
manner. The moderate party the true TRENDS
of constitutional, rational, liberty, have tri-
umphed by large majorities. Lamartine, Du-
Point, (D'Lure,) Arago-indeed, the best spir
its of France-have been returned by tremen-
dous .majorities to the National Assembly
proving beyond doubt that the revolution, in
all human probability, will be carried to d
glorious termination. We are glad to Learn
,. learn that such men as Blanc, Flocon, ant
Ledru Rollin, have met but precious little "a
vor with thu people even of the city of Paris
Everything now looks bright, and if no unto
ward change takes place, we may soon SCI
France enjoying constitution and laws lik'
our own. May it be so.

paper, arrived here on Friday morning. IN

hands of our people reception which alike
eyinced their own good feeling and sense of
propriety, and the high and enviable place in
their afectionate regards which the deceased
occupied. The steamer rounded to at Market

their bosoms on the melancholy occasion. O.
this address we have heard but one opinion
expressed. 1t was chaste, eloquent, and pc

questions TO put to the Wing Editors OF

the Presidential campaign.
1st Do the Wing papers of North Carolina

the re-enactment Of the Tariff o. 1912,
ID Do the Wing papers of North Carolina
go for the charter of U. S. Bank, and the re-.
peal of the Independent Treasury. or do they
not?
Sd. Do the Wing papers of North Carolin;
90 for the distribution of the proceeds of thu
sales of the public lands?
4th. Do they go for the abolition or altera
ton OF the Veto power?
These questions we call upon some of GU
Wing contemporaries to answer. We mean Il
press them anti we get direct response.

The NEXT LEGIsLATURE.-We have few
brief words to say to the Democratic party Of
North Carolina under the above heading.'
In less than ninety days from this time the
members of the next Legislature of North Car
DINA will be elected 1t behooves the Demo-
cratic party of the State to take early, prompt,
and welldirected steps 10 secure the ascen
dency in that body. The next session will
indeed be an important one. A United States
Senator, in place of George E. Badger, whose
term expires on the 4th of March, 1919, will
have to be chosen-a Judge Of the Supreme
Court-an Attorney General, and number of
minor officers, will have TO be elected, which
alone would make the next quite an important
session. But there are other matters Of still
deeper importance which renders it highly de-.
sTable-essential, indeed-that the Republi-
can party should have full control of that bo-
dy next winter. For the honor of the Old
North State, the infamous Mexican preamble
of the Federal Legislature of '46-7 must and
will be expunged from the records of the State
The patriotic people of North Carolina will
not permit such foul blot 10 stain the fair
escutcheon of their States reputation. Again,
the unjust and partizan Gerrymander of the
State cries aloud for repeal. 1t must be re-
pcaled. Another subject, too, will most like
ly come up in quite an important and definite
shape for action during the ensuing session OF
the Legislature. We mean the two Rail Roads
of the State. Something definite must be done
with them next winter. This alone would
make ithighly important for the next Legisla
ture to be Democratic. Indeed, altogether il
will be one of the most important sessions Of
the Legislature of North Carolina which has
been convened in many years.
Will not the Democracy then put forth al
its strength in order TO insure the control O
the next General Assembly, We sincerely
and confidently hope they will. How is thi!
to be done? Why by the whole party in each
County moving as one man. By laying aside
all petty jealouses. BY bringing out the very
strongest, the very best, men in each County a
candidates, and then, when they are brough
out, by leaving no stone unturned to secur
their election. Particularly should this be th
case in those Counties which are nearly bal
anccd, as regards the strength OF the parties
The last Legislature was lost to the Democrat
ic party through our own apathy. We coulC
and ought to have carried it. If our party
would move as one man in all the doubtful
Counties of the State, we could carry the mex
Legislature by an overwhelming majority
We call upon the Democracy of the State TO b
united and vigilant We appeal to them to b
up and doing during the next few weeks, an
they will have the pleasure, after the frs
Thursday in next August, of having secure
the control of the destinies of the good Oh
North State
We would appeal to our brethren of til
Democratic press in North Carolina, and urg
upon them the necessity OF keeping this sub
iect properly before the people. Ii is indeer
a vitality important one.
