The Causes or the Whig Rout in North Car
OIina

The Wilmington Commercial, one of the most leading
rhig journals in North Carolina and whose editor, we
learn. served under General Scou's command on our
northwestern frontier in the of 1912, thus sums up
the causes and the significance OF the late terrible rout OF
the wings in North Carolina.
The language Of the Commercial is direct to the point
and well worth reading by those who may have been
mystfed by the whg about Stree suffrage" and
"local issues !"
"CAUsE OF WHO DEFEATWe think the Standard is mis-
taken in arbuting, any part the defeat OF the wings to
the freesurage principle. In the only where that
doctrine would have any infuencethe legsalure-ihe
wings have gained which shows that the fee-conventon
principle has overshadowed free suffrage in this election
''The Scott nomination alone caused the election OF
Reid though the Standard thinks it would not have been
put in jeopardy had Fillmore been the nominee. In that
election large number of whgs-thousands, we believe
have been Indifferent neutral, or voted or Reid All
these who comprise large portion of the talents and in
huence of the whig party would have been working
and indnstrousy engaged in promoting the election oI
Kerr had the South been insued and degraded by the
political devment that nominated Scott.
"The wings have the first lesson the Scott nom
nation which feared would not read so well many
expected and desired, and so told the public.
The second lesson that nomination will be read IN
November, and the honest wings of North Carolina who
have permitted themselves be deceived by the uphoder
of the Baltimore betrayal will clearly than they
now do political humbugs of the leaders OF the Scott
oray against the rights and interests and honor oil the
South False and unsound conclusions now nave

well to the party and county but after the Scott ticket
is defeated in North Carolina they will clearly discern
what coraoant of spolshunters and political aPrants
we have In as well as of the State"
