The weekly North-Carolina standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 186?-1869, 1867-10-30

Ia the face Of the bittercst opposition. They
dave fought your battles on every Held, and
are. to-day contehding for your interests with
all of their original courage.
Ninth lin all the Northern States where
the Republican party rules,-and alithe
Northern States are now.in the hands OF
that party,-LABoR is honored above all
things under the sun, except God and the
American Union, Of which it is the founda-
ton; and your brother mechanics, farmers
and workingmen have emigrated from
North Carolina by thousands, in order to
reach land where they could be respected
rewarded and appreciated.
IsnM-The Governors, Judges, Congress
men, and Legislators of the Northern States
are members of the Republican party, and
are Working-men themselves, having driven
pillow or swung hammer just as you do
but they are honored, and you are over
looked and forgotten.
Elecenth. You have nothing to hope for
but continued oppression until you rise in
your majesty and hurl aristocrats and oil
garchs from all places of power. Even now
they seek to perpetuate their ancient and
intolcrable system Of misrule. As men enti-
tied to an independent voice in the govern
ment, arise and protest in the name of your,
children, against such monstrous iniquity.
TsrelfM.- What is thele Objectionable to,
you as Working men in the platform of the
Republican party If it guarantees any
thing, it guarantees the protection Of Labor.
1t advocates civil, political and religious lib
erty to all men. 1t denounces class legisla-
ton in favor of the powerful against the weak,
while il proclaims that our soil knows no
king. but the Monarch of the Pillow and the
Anvil-the Nottingham!
Thirteenth The appeals to your prejudi-
ces against colored laboring men, is put upon
the ground that the negro is aspiring to be-
come your equal socially. They now say
that he will become your master, and endea-
vor to frighten you with the bug-a-boo OF
"negro supremacy" How ridiculous =
Where is the proofa Who tells you of these
things but the very man that would consid-
er it degrading to have you associate on
equal terms with his famely-who turns up
his nose at your hard hands and oil-stained
garments Your private house is your own.
His private house is his own The colored
mans house is his own Your social circle
is your own, and no man, white or colored,
can enter it without your consent. Have
you ever heard of colored man who advoca-
ted social equality between the white and
black races2 Never. No laws can be made
to force you to associate with any one in
your houses or at your tables. Did you
ever hear of such law in any country Is
such law, then, likely to be passed in free
American The man that talks to you
about social equality insults your feelings
and Understandings Beware of him he is
either fool or knaye. .
