The Next War;

self to be " agin taxes and in favor of the
next war" We are g ag i'll taxes" but We

are fighting this campaign solely upon this
ISSUE We support Mr.. Greeley because
he has been regularly nominated by the
Democratic party OH the ground that he is
pledged TO peace and reconciliation, and
we oppose General GranC because he is the
representative of party that seeks to pro-
long the war and strife that have SO long
afflicted the country.
The Radical party fourishes only amid
strife and contention. For peace and
peaceful methods it has neither respect nor
regard.
The great grief that now weighs upon
the Radical heart in North Carolina
is the prospect of peaceful investigation
into the frauds that it is alleged were per-
petrated in the late election. 1t seems
never to have occurred to the members
of that party that their duty as good,
law-abiding citizens requires them to
submit TO the arbitration of the law
and 20 yield obedience to The verdict
of the highest legal tribunal in the land.
Their first thought is that the Legislature
will decide against them. Their next
thought is that they will 6 resist"
Nor is there any effort at concealment.
The Era, the central organ Of the Radical
party in the State, openly advises Caldwell
to resist, in case the Legislature, the tribu-
nal expressly empowered by the COnstitu-
ton to decide the contest, declares that
Merrimon was elected and that Caldwell
was not elected.
= Now we call this quite cool proceeding,
bus it is only a specimen brick OF Radical
Reconstruction. There was a time when
such talk would have had some effect, but
now all that sort of thing has, in the ex-
pressive words of that eminent Radical,
Colonel Kirk, "played out"
Indeed, if we live until we see g resist
ance" " to the decision Of the Legislature
formally declared in accordance with law,
we shall live many years longer than we
nc,g expect to live. In the first place, it
will be slightly dangerous.
If the Legislature of North Carolina,
in obedience to the Constitution, decides
the contest between MerrimOn and
Caldwell i'll favor j Of Merrimon, and
if. i'm obedience to that decision Merri-
mon is duly sworn into office and
Caldwell resists him in the discharge of his
duties, with force and arms, his resistance
will be SO near akin to the crime of treason,
as defined by the Constitution, as to give
him and his aiders and abettors very chilly
sensations about the neck. There is little
danger that our North Caroliua Radicals
will be so rash as to risk shooting
! first and hanging afterwards in seeking te
overturn the lawful government of North
Carolina. If they could play their parts
| in the rear of Grant and the old Flag they
might try it, but not otherwise.

[From the Rocky Mount MaiL}

Almost every Conservative paper in the
State demands that the election should be
contested If there has been fraud it
should be exposed, which can only y be done
by thorough investigation OF the whole
matter. 1t is time that the perpetrators
of corruption should be properly punished.

TFrom the Wadesboro' Argus. !

1t then clearly remains to our candidates
on the State ticket to contest the election
of Caldwell and those associated with him
by Radical nomination. They owe it to
the Conservative people of North Carolina,
who feel they have been cheated out of the
victory legally theirs. They owe it to the
cause Of Justice. 1t is necessary for the
maintenance Of the purity of the ballot
box. 1t is essential to the free privilege of
elections.

These charges ought to be investigated

may be done and fraud condemned, for II
they be true, then is Merrimon our Gov
ernOr elect. We do not undertake. t0lsay
that they are true, bnt,we consider it the
duty of Judge Merrimon To contest the
election, not alone on his own behalf, but
III behalf Of the State aud the purity otthe

by a singing sense of defeat, but by a
simple desire that the elections in this
State shall be above suspicion OF unfair
ness, and that the ballOt7box, which is the
only safeguard of our liberties, shall be
kept pure. If upon investigation no frauds
should be discovered, then we will, hail
Caldwell as the Governor elect by the
