The nti-Harris attitude Of the HIM.
terdon Democrat has caused such OPP
position to the Congressional candi-
date ameng the Democrats Of the
Fourth district that Harris and HE
friends have become frightened. On
Saturday last the Hunterdon -Adger-
tiser, small weekly newspaper pub
lished in bennington, was purchashed
by ]. Newton Voorhees,, Moses K.
Everett and Judge John L. Jones.
The purchasers are all prominent Dem
ocratic politicians pledged to Harris.
They will enlarge the paper and make
it vigorous party organ and the only
defender Of Harris in Hunterdon
county. 1t is intended to make the
journal permanent one, and run it as
q rival of Mr.. Kilgore's Democrat
after the present contest is ended.
The three purchasers Of the Aduertiser
all have political ambitions of their
own, They profess to be the legiti-
mate successors Of John T. Bird, who
il now Vice Chancellor, and claim the
prestige that belonged to the Bird fac
ton. Their claim is disputed in many
quarters, however, ON the ground that
Mr.. Bird would never have supported
any man who voted for the river and
harbor bill.
Craftsmanship is dying out. A man
with the interests Of the masses at
heart no longer has standing among
men. He must be subservient to some
personal interest to be successful in
public life. IT'S sad, indeed, to say
that the principles Of the present day
are "Every man for himself; get what
you can; for heneeforth statesman
ship is memory of the past; repub-
lies are ungrateful and in the scramble
for gain individual interests must take
the place of patriotism" Where
shall we look for statesmen ? Men
about whom we can rally, and awake
the slumbering fires Of national pride
that still burn in the hearts of the
people. Alasl they all are seized
with the pestilential contagion Of per-
sonal greed and ambition. Cannot
the mantle of Washington be restored
to the land, or must we desert the
good old ship and see her shattered
on the rocks, decayed at the core and
withered in the sere and yellow leaf
of political dissolution? With the
death of statesmauship the life of the
republic will 60 out in gloom and the |
sacred Constitution transmitted to
us will become sepulchre of dry |
bones. Our country's flag will be an |
emblem Of shame, and over the grave
of universal liberty the monument of |
our departed greatness will bear but
one inscription-"Sacred to the Mem
cry of Race of Slaves" Awake
then and save the structure that is
fast falling into corrupt decay. The
lives and history of the patriots gone
before should remind US of the duties
we have neglected,

With SO good man as Lewis
Parker, Jr., for a Congressional can
didate We do not believe there is
sufficient organization among the
Democrats Of this district and especial
y in Burlington county to even make
. respectable fight against his oppo-
nent, Mr.. Brewer. The party became
SO hopelessly demoraljzed last fall in
this county that it will be several
years yet before the lesson taught will
prove beneficial. The experience Of
running man in opposition to the
party is costly, and the price l1ust be
paid. It is too bad that the young
man is SO heavily handicapped in the
race, as there is nothing like a fair
fight in whatever cause.

That same court after a series Of
the most favorable events to the
black man, declared that no State
shall obstruct the exercise of coils
ored men in their jury service by
her Legislature or t trough her
ministerial officers charged with
drawing juries. We will be salts
fed with nothing less than the
full concession of every right guar
anteed to us by the constitution
and laws of the land.
There was a time when we were
isolated and barrlcaded from the
almost impregnable arana Of
American citizenship by walls Of
prejudice, but by persistent efforts
the gates have been thrown open
to us. It was indeed a great
struggle.
The plumed Knights OF Justice
have broken the enemies phalanx
and line after line has given way,
The banner of equal rights has
been unturled on parapet after
psrapet following the panic strick-
en- and retreating forces.
The race has been recognized
and honored by positions in high
official life. Colored men have
filed nearly every station IN our
civil government; and now, in the
face of all this vindicatlon of our
free citizenship and our manhood
and the exercise of our rights be-
fore the law, the county commits
sioners are found to be tenacious
ly clinging to the forlorn hope of
keeping the negro in obeyance by
locking the jury box against him.
The intention OF the convention is
to purge the jury box and plant
the colors of American liberty that
.ss.-aeie folds may fiutter over it
forever.

RESOLUTIONS.
BY THE COMMITTEE.

WHEREAS, In many counties in
North Carolina not a name of a
single colored man has been reps
resented on the jury; and
WHEREAS, The laws of North
Carolina provide that the names
of all competent citizens shall be
placed IN the jury box, according
to sec. l chap. IL of Battles
Revisal; and
WHEREAS, In several counties
in North Carolina the names OF
colored citizens do not appear in
the jury list. Therefore
ResolUed, That we, the colored
citizens of the State, insist that
the law be strictly carried out in
all counties of the State, and hat
all citizens who are competent for
jurors be placed in the jury list
and drawn without regard to race,
color, or previous condition.
ResoIUed, That we request the
United States District Attorneys
of the several Districts of North
Carolina to prosecute all violations
or dsreliction of duty of our coun.
ty commissioners in placing the
names of competent jurors in the
jury box.

ment; and
WHEREAS, The tendency of
legislation since the bourbon de-
mocracy obtained control of our

party at sacrifice of the popular
rights of the people; and
WHEREAS, Bya shameful GER
rymander of our large cities and

allowed to rule msjorities; and
WHEREAS, By a shameful ger-
rymander of our Congressional
