A ISLANDER REFUTED.
THE WAY DEMOCRATS LIE.
Toe thc Mark, or Back Down


We were quite prepared for just such
reply from the Ku Klux Defender
over the way as appeared in lis issuc cf
yesterday. We expected to be charged
with being the '.organ of the ring" as
an article can hardly be written for that
paper without saying something of the
kind about the Union. 1t is just the
kind Of stuff that suits It's readers.
They would not know how to get long
from one day to another if they could
not be regaled with cries against carpet
baggers, thieves, scoundrels, rings, etc. i,
etc. 1t is a portion of their "daily
bread"
We have tired of attempting any mr.
gument with paper so unscrupulous as
to make charges by insinuation, and then
cowardlike, sneak out of the attempt to
substantiatc them by proof
1t is not a matter Of the slightest i'm.
portance to us how many times we are
called an "apologist Of the ring" but it
does become matter eSsomc impor-
tance, not only to US, but to some others,
when We are charged by implication
with having in any way, directly or in
directly, received money from the State,
to which we were not entitled. Now,
Mr.. PhGair, we intend to bring you, if
possible, down to hard pan. 1t is
difficult task, but perhaps it can be done.
Now, sir, you shall have that opporrunl-
ty "to measure swords" and we want
no Shrinking from the contest. We will
start with the following, from your issue
of yesterday
"You (the Jnioa) and Parker and
your confrers have had large experience
in subtraction, we admit; but your pro
cess was illicit, and can be sustained as
little by mathematical as by moral
rules. Your minuend was the hard
earnings of an impoverished and help
less people, and your subtrahend was
the fraudulent bonds"
You have thought proper to associate
this paper, with the ring, in what you
are pleased to intimate is an "ilicit"
process, implying that We have been
engaged in swipdlipg the State through
fraudulent bonds" Now, IM-. Phenir,
zee dare yon to make q specific charge
that his paper has IN any ray, directly
or indirectly, been engaged in any .fI'audu-
ient taasaction against Tie Smte, either
through fraudulent bonds or in any
other manner, or that it ever received a
cent of money from the public treasury
for which it did not render an eauiyal.

WILMINGTON, August Z

Unparalleled frauds have been dis
covered in this election. At one pre-
cinct, in Brunswick county, an official
voie was announced of nincty-thrce
majority for Caldwell on investigation
it appears that there were 80 many
irregularities and frauds that tho whole
sots Of the township is thrown out.
This gives Merrimon majority of three
in Brunswick. There are also other
frauds, which will give Merrimon a
great advantage on tho official connt.
The Conservatives still consider the
chances even without calculating the
gigantic frauds.
