Practical RadicnIIs.,,.

1t appears by the sworn testimony OF
Col. K. w. Pullam, that Rev. G.. W. Wei
ker received from Littlefield while Welker
was member Of the Radical Legislature
and the great frauds were being pefpetrat-
ed Oh the State and people, twenty
shares of stock i'll 6 the North Carolina
Railroad Company"-that Littlefeld paid
Pulliam five hundred dollars for the shares
tor Mr.. Wtlker.
1t furthermore appears that this Mr..
Welker was director of the Penitentiary,
under the Radical Legislature, and while
he was such, he aud others let the contract
to build the Pcnitentiary buildings to
Ohio men at the highest instead of the
lowest price. while native North Carolina
mechanics proposed TO DO the work for
less prices.
1t further appears, that Gov. Caldw ell
came to the conclusion a few days ago,
that he ought to turn the present Board
of Penitentiary Directors out, and put in
his own appointees, and that chief among
his appointees is this same Mr.. Welker-
he is appointed and is made chairman of
the Board, at that, over Gen. Dockery; and
what is more, without any shadow of au-
thority, this same Mr.. Welker, with the
express sanction of Gov. Caldwell, has
drawn from the Treasury $1,000!
Now these facts appear by the record.
We submit to the people whether this is
not practical radicalism? And who is sur
prised at j., when it is remembered that
Gov. Caldwell has been one of the leading
Radicals in this State, and that he presided
over the Radical Senate while all the stu
pendous RAILROAD" and especial tax bond
frauds were perpetrated upon the State,
and he did not open his mouth in opposi-
ton to that villainy and crime? Nobody
is surprised! And nobody is surprised
that he is to be the next Radical candidate
for Governor? He is eminently fit and
qualified for the nomination. He will be
nominated and deserves to be! Hurrah
for practical Radicalism. And hurrah for
Caldwell! Hurrah for Reuereld! G. w.
Welker! Hurrah for Radicahsm. Do
the people seel Will they tolerate such
unheard Ct villainy? Much less, will they
endorse it? We shall see. They can take
care of themselves if they will, and we
think they will.-Raleigh Sentinel.

DOOIittIe ON DaV Wis.

Ex-senator Doolittle is making speeches
for the Democrats in Connecticut, and
takes ground strongly in favor Of cornbi-
nation of all elements of opposition to
President Grant. After speaking of Gov.
Gratz Brown, of Missouri, he alluces to
Judge Davis as follows :
$50 am equally familiar with Judge
Dayis-an early Western settler, of large
head and heart, and judge in Illinois the
friend of Lincoln, the executor OF his will,
and who had his entire confidence. He Is
esteemed in Illinois as a great man and a
good Judge. Should he be named he might
be endorsed by the Democratic Convention.
Should those things occur ann as certain
that he would carry Illinois by $4,000 ma
iority as am certain that the sun will rise
tomorrow morning. Trumbun Is an up
right man, an able Senator, but he has been
so long before the public and so closely
connected by his name and family with
Connecticut that l need not speak of him.
If either of these distinguished gentlemen
act, as in my opinion they will act, as a
candidate for President against Grant, they
will receive the undoubted support OF
100000 of Democrats and likewise OF
10000 or 1,00O, 900 Republicans also. Now.
what mention is this desire to restore the
government into the hands of statesmen
applause Unto the control Of civil law,
rather than into military despotisnl-(ap-

Jefferson and our fathers placed it." Gap

Many of the newspapers referring 10 the
Tichborne case, speak of it as the longest
trial on record, and of the speech of the
Attorney-General in opposition to the
claimant as the longest speech. AS a mat
ter of history this is not correct. The trial
of Warren Hastings upon articles of i'm
parchment for high crimes and INSIDE
meanors, before the British Parliament,
was much longer, and the address of Ed
mund Burr upon presenting the articles OF
impeachment is probably the longest legal
argument on record. This remarkable
trial began by the presentation of articles
of impeachment to the House of Commons
April 4, 1886. The answer, reply, re-
joinder, &c, consumed the time until the
beginning of February, 1888. The trial
before the House of Commons began Feb
ruary IS, 1888, and ended March II, 1889
Edmund Burke commenced his opening
speech on the 18th day of February, 1888
and closed eleven weeks later, on the til
day Of May following.

A sharp Thing in Insura,ee.

a piece Of sharp practice on the part of
the directors and officers Of an insurance
company of Hartford, has recently been
brought to light, but for some mysterious
reason it failed to get into the papers of
that city. 1t seems that these officers Dor
rowed from $4,000 TO $4,000 each of the
fund Of their company, giving as security
therefor, their individual notes and mort
at Chicago they went to that city, repre-
sented their company as insolvent, bought
up claims against it Git is said for 20 cents
on the dollar, and then cndeavored 10 use
these claims at their face value in payment
of their notes held by the company, and
ere only prevented from doing so by the
Receiver, who shut down on the little
garne.-SprinGfeld Republicans

Travel in Nebraska.

The people Of Nebraska are just now
greatly excited over the passage Of an act
by the Legislature of Iowa, which is cal
culated to inflict a very serious injury upon
them. 1t is asserted that the act referred
to will divert all the traffic from the present
channels, SO that the several lines of rail
road coming through Nebraska may in
future only make transfers OF freight and
passengers to connecting roads within the
boundaries Of the State Of Iowa. This, it
is said, Will interfere with vested rights in
the neighboring State to such an extent as
to destroy its commerce, and ruin scores of
business houses. To avert the blow, it is
proposed to hold Il convention at Lincoln,
Nebraska, and draw up remonstrance,
which, it is hoped, may have the effect of
inducing the ungenerOus IOwans to recon-
slider the Objectionable measure.
