Honor.
| John Pool is sending, free OF postage, all
| over the State, an infamous document IN
Which the following questions are asked :
"Who is responsible for the strife and
hatred that now sap the very foundation OF
the prosperity and peace of the State +?
Who Show 10 disapprobation to criminals
! and their abcttols, but offer rather TO honor
them, and to revile, and to degrade their
accuseIs and prosecutors ?" We propose
! TO answer these questions by showing the
manner il which the Radical Party have
treated the men who advised or took part
i'll the reasonable HoIden-Kill war.
We begin with this same John Pool who,
according TO the sworn testimony of Il. e..
badger, advised Governor Holden to put
into military service a desperate named
McLndsay, because he would murder or
lose prisoners who might make any resist
ancc, and thereby avoid giving the Cover
nor any trouble about them. lie is now a
Radical Uuited States Senator.
Richmond NJ. Pearson, who refused to
use the means in his power to enforce
obedience to the writ Of UabeUs Corpus, is
Chief Justice of North Carolina.
w. w. Holden, OF late I" a noble martyr
in exile" has just been canuonized as
saint by the Radical State Convention.
Joseph G. Abbott, who bought State
bonds go sell Oh the rise, and then voted so
as tohake them 'Frise," and then was paid
by Swepson, on behalf Of Littlefeld, So, 600
for his share of the profits that accrued,
because the bonds did ''rise," was endorsed
by the same Convention that endorsed
Holden, and it is said has raised another
$4,000 to use i'll the present State cam
paign.
Colonel w. J. Clarke who, though q sore
broken, for the third time girded Oh his
sword III tho Holden war, ard with all his
youthful artlor, is now a Judge of the Su-
perior Court.
Samuel I. CarrOw who, SWepSon swears,
told him when making an infamous propo-
sition, that if any disclosure was ever made
concerning it, that he, CarroN', would deny
all about it, and who, whm questioned
about it on oath, did deny all about it, is
United States Marshal and rides i'll 4 fine
carriage drawn by fine horses. -.
Newton Chandler, a private, and Sam
uel IIcltOn, Il Lieutenant i'll Kinks regi-
ment, are now wards Of the State and
cared for at public expense in a public in
stitution vulgany known as the Peniten-
tiary, the one for rape, the other for hog
stealing. For this expense, however, the
Radical party is not responsible. .--.
Tod II. Caldwell is the candidate of his
! party for Governor of the State.
! Colonel Kirk is an officer in the National
Police Force in charge of the Capitol
Buildings at Washington City.
| Lieutenant Colonel Bergen was appointed
by President Grant to ConsulShp i'll
South America.
DIR. Marion Roberts, Surgeon on Kinks
staff, is the candidate of his party for the
Senate in his district. ......
| Il. G. Badger is the candidate of his party
| for the Legislature in his county.
+ NIcLindsay, John POOLS desperate, who
&had a facility for ''murdering or losing
|
for not giving Holden any ''trouble" about
them, is also, we believe, the candidate Of
| his party for the Legislature.
! David A. Jenkins who, according to Mr..
Badger, said he could find a company equal
| to that of NIcT4indsay and his crew in los
| ing men and in not giving trouble TO a
| Governor about obnoxious prisoners, is not
| ONLY State Treasurer but is candidate for
reelection.
! John Neathcry, uOlden's swift messen-
ger to Pearson, is now Private Secretary
! to the Governor.
Ike Young has made his fortune IS a
| United States Revenue officer.
James II. Harris is the candidate Of his
party for the State Senate.
Windy Billy Henderson IS United
States Revenue officer and shining light
in the Radical camp.
But the men who marched to places OF
| glory, and profit, and honor, and emolu-
ment through the IIolden-Kirk war, are
beyond counting. AL that is needed to
make man 1" "a fire tried republican" is
that he he was i'll some way on other con-
nected with the great conspiracy against
the Constitution and laws OF the State,
concoctcd by John Pool and carried out
10y Holden and Pearson. We have thus
! answered the Questions asked in POOLS in
/ famous circular: Let tie people OF North
/ Carolina take warning. Is
