THE ELECTION IN NovENBER.

Next November, elections are to be
held in this State for Congressman,
Supreme Court Judges, six Superior
Court Judges, Solicitors, members of
the Legislature and Sheriffs. The
Charlotte Democrat makes the follow
ing appropriate and wise suggestion
which we hope to see acted upon.
We suggest to onr friend, r. III.
Battle, Esq, the chairman of the
State Democratic Executive Commit
tee, that he begin to think about or
ganizing and preparing for the con-
test. A letter from prominent gent
leman repeats the truthful saying
that "a house divided against itself
cannot stand" and suggested that it is
about time to unite and close up the
Democratic ranks and prepare to face
a common enemy 1t is right to point
out defects in Democratic manage
ment as we'll as Republican manage
ment, but when it comes to a choice
of rulers and officers, we dc not hest
tate to say, let us all stand by the
good old Democratic party and its
honest representatives. Mr.. Battle
knows how to begin operations for
another successful campaign, and we
only mean to suggest an early start.

TACHNIENT FOR NEWSPAPERS

TTACHNIENT FOR NEWSPAPERS
The following extract from some
paper so well expresses eur ideas that
we think the space it occupies will be
well used. In it may be seen some
thing of that intangible thing called
good will, which so many have often
tried to define:
The strong attachment of subscrib-
ers to a well-conducted newspaper is
fully confirmed by all publishers.
''Stop my paper" words of dread to
beginners in business, lose their terror
after a paper has been established a
few years. So long as paper pur-
sues a just, honorable and judicious
course meeting the wants of its custo-
mers in all respects, the ties of friend
ship between the subscribers and the
papers are as hard to break by an out
side third party as the link which
binds old friends in business or social
life Occasional defects and errors in
a newspaper are overlooked by those
who have become attached to it
through the perusal for years. They
sonnet nes become dissatisfied with it
on account of something which has
slipped into its columns, and may stop
taking it; but the absence ofthe fam
liar sheet at their homes and Offices
for few weeks becomes an1nsupport-
able privation, and they hasten to
take it again, and possibly apologize
for having stopped it. No friendship
ON earth is more constant than that
contracted by the reader for a journal
which makes an honest and earnest
effort to merit its continued support.
Hence, conscientiously conducted
paper becomes favorite in the fam

GIVING OILERS SOMETHING TODD

The Rev. Mr.. Barker, pastor of
St. Parls church at Washington, d.
D., has Just founded an institution in
Georgetown which should be duplicat
ed about ten thousand times in the
cities and towns Of this country. 1t
is simply club, formed for the pur
pose of providing wholesome amuse-
ment, entertainment and reading mat
ter for corner loafers, and habitues of
low grog-shops, and other idlers who
are prone to fall into evil ways and
make work for the police.
The cost of membership is ten cents
per month for men and three cents for
boys. 1t was organized November 3,
and already has 217 members. Near
ly half the members are there every
night. There are books and period
icals in plenty, a pool table for the
men and bagatelle table for the
boys, various other games, &c, lee
lures twice month, but no preaching.
The club has cleared the street cor
ners in the vicinity of those who late
y loafed away their time there, and
the police are having an easy time of
it. 1t is doing an incalculable amount
of good by keeping idle hands out of
mischief, and the philanthropic gent
lemen who support it have good rea-
son to be proud Of their work.

AN OUTRAGE UPON A COLORED


Ohio is a Republican State, we be-
lieve, yet the following outrage was
perpetrated by Republican officials in
the town of Bellefontaine, a few days
ago. Colored men Whereabouts might
well ask themselves if such treatment
was ever shown to any of their race by
Democratic officials in North Carroll
ma. Here is the item referred to,
which we clip from the columns of the
Examiner:
A we'll dressed and well appearing
colored barber arrived in the city one
evening last week. Being without
money or friends, he pawned two
pairs Of sheers belonging to his kit for
means to get lunch and a place to
sleep. Three Of our Republican po-
liceman ''shadowed'' him, and when
asked to be directed to hotel, one of
them said: "We'll give you a hotel !"
and with that they hand-cuffed and
dragged him off to Jail, while the third
officer took possession of the poor dar
keys valise before he was released
next morning. All this because he
was black, poor and too honest to
steal. These Republicans will be
wanting the colored vote when the

THE SENATE CONFIRMATION

THE SENATE CONFIRMATION.
The sterling good sense of President
Cleveland seems to crop out spontane-
ously on every occasion, and to make
smooth the paths which were thought
to be rugged and beset with dangers to
his administration. One of the pet
theories of his enemies has been that a
fight between LIN and the Senate was
inevitable-that that august body,
with its Republican majority, would
take early occasion to reject some of his
appointments, and that the war would
then commence.
But the President takes the meta
phorical wind out of their hypotheti-
cal sails very effectually by few
words, aptly spoken, to the effect that
all his appointments have been made
on the supposition that the appointees
are good and honest men, capable and
efficient. If the Senate discovers that
he has been deceived he expects that
body to promptly reject all who are
shown to be unfit for their positions.
His responsibility ends when he sends
name to the Senate. Thereafter the
responsibility is with that body This
is position at once SO simple and
straightforward that it is difficult to
see how the Republican majority in
the Senate can find anything to quar-
rel with. In fact, it cannot well afford
to quarrel with such a proposition.
