THE NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION.

The Enterprise of yesterday con
tanned a spread-eagle telegraph,
head over its dispatches about a Re
publican victory in North Carolina
1t IS very probable that the cal
for a Constitutional Convention ha.
been defeated, but to call that defeat
a Republican victory is going a little
too far. The Democrats and Con.
servatives generally favored a reyisa]
of the State Constitution, but many
of them did not. but on the contrary.
opposed the proposition from the
beginning in the Legislature and
before the people. The Republi
cans were mostly opposed to a
change, but they too were divided
on the question and voted both ways.
There was no immediate political
question involved in the election.
Remote and contingent differences
usually Influence parties in contests
of this character, but do not exert
that paramount partisan effect that
straighten party lines in general
elections. In this instance many
prominent Democrats opposed the
Convention for fear that if a change
should be made in the State Consti-
tuition it would afford Congress and
the Administration a pretext for in
%terfering with the State government,
and perhaps throwing out its cleo
toral vote next year. Attorney Gen
eral Alderman very positively limited
that such Would be the result. in his
speech at Raleigh, which vas printed
and circulated all over the State. and
had, of course, considerable effect
among conservative citizens particu-
larry, who have a direct interest in
the preservation of tranquility. Ia
der the circumstances. it is surpris-
ing that the proposition to amend
the Constitution received as much
support as it did.

SENATOR. REELAN EXPELLED.

We are inclined to think that afte,
q while the Territorial Enterprise
viii discover that trying to fool
miners and citizens is not a profitable
business. Its utter shamelessness
and lack of all respect for the intel
1igence of its readers is almost mex
ampled among journals claiming re-
spectability. We have had occasion
heretofore to refer to some instances
of this recklessness in connection
with the political mission Of Mr..
Phelan to California. The editor
told one story about it. and an en-
dorsed correspondent told another
which was finally capped by both of
them approving the use of the
Miners Union o rpolitical purposes,
and boasting that Mr.. Phelan was
backed up by resolutions adopted
by the Unions. Now let the miners
talk for themselves, and We shall see
how faithfully the Enterprise repre-
sents them:
At a regular meeting of the Gold
Hill Miners Union. held in their Hall
on the evening of the 9TH 6f July. ISL,
the following preamble and resolution
We're adopted:
hereaS. lnaSrnuch As James Phelan

Attest: GRO. w. ROGERS.
Rec. Sec. Gold Hill Miners Union.
As if the foregoing were not suf-
ticiently explicit, an additional point
was communicated to the rebuke by
Unions sarcasticallv ordering
the notice to be published in the
columns of the Enterprise itself. as
an advertisement. The Gold Hill
miners want it distinctly understood
that this tritiing with Il grave and
matter has gone far
enough. They don't intend to be
tied to the tail of California politi-
and used to elevate the advo-
of Cinnamon to the United

Tie next step in order in the career Of
the mob in Paris is the burning and sack
ing of the private and public houses in the
city. Our dispatches this morning show
that the step has been taken and the work
begun We are of the opinion that unless
the Versailles Government succeed in
speedily subduing the insurgents, it will
be not only justifable but the duty of the
German Government to promptly inter-
fere. We do not think it necessary that
they should sickle on questions of law,
but fer thesakeof humanity interfere to
save the dreaafuI and hofrid work Of
hatchery now going on. We believe,
merely for the purpose of suppressing the
disorders, the interference would be en-
dorsed by the powers of Europe. g = 4 ,
