senators Ransom and Vance.

In the following article the Charlotte
Democrat expresses our sentiments
exactly:
"We haye heard or a few Democrats
saying that Senator Ransom has been in
Office long enough and ought to give
place to some other man. Pursuing the
came reasoning, we might say that some
Democrats who have held Office under
Mr., Cleveland for four years, ought,
when Cleveland is reelected, give way
for other Democrats. There are several
nice places in this State which some of
the outs would like to have. and the
present incumbents can't complain if Mr..
Cleveland is asked to make change after
the 4th March next-on the same prin.
ciple that Ransom is opposed. We do
not hesitate to say that it would be a
great loss to the State to refuse to re-elect
Senator RanGom-he has done more for
the State than any other Senator eyer
did, excepting Vance of course. The fact
is, if the Republican members of the
Legislature were influenced by patriotic
spirit, even they would not want to turn
Ransom out. We never asked or receiV-
ed any particular favor from Ransom,
and don't know that we ever shall. but,
as North Carolinisn, we want him and
Vance kept in the U. s. Senate. They
are ever ready to serve the interests of
their constituents, no matter to which
party they belong. We have NO particu-
lar objection to other gentlemen men.

will be no change at this time.

Before this campaign is over the
white radical bosses of Buncombe
will wish that they had given the
negroes that two thousand dollars;
and dorl'r you forget it!
The colored voters of Asheville
are not going to be cheated out OF
that ttuo thousand dollars; the white
radical leaders will have to give it
up to them.
The colored republican mass,
meeting to be held at the court house
to-day, means that the negroes are
tired of being swindled by the white
radical leaders.
The efforts OF the white radical
bosses to bug of the honest, intslli-
gent colored men last night, and
thereby break up the mass meeting
to-day, failed to work. 1t served
them right. The negro is not going
to be sold out again. Do you hear?

CRAWFORD al MARION.

Hon. W. T. Crawford and Mai. W. w.
Rollins addressed the people of Mellow
ell at Marion, yester lay. There va a
large crowd present. and much enthusiasm
was manifested. Maj Rollins opened
the discussion. He made the regular,
set republican Misrepresentation of facts,
and made the usual extravagant and
fallacious assertions which furnishes the
chief stock in trade for the radical lead.
ers: ME. Crawford made powerful, fair
and impassioned speech, in which he,
dealt with facts and figures with great
effect. The closest attention was paid to
the remerks made by the able elector on
the democratic ticket and he was vocifer-
ously cheeled by the people. Crawford
madeS great speech, and it did much
good. The democratic outlook for Me-
DoweH, is very bright indeed, and glor-
ious victory is assured in November.

CoIpRED REPUBLICANS
HOLD A MASS MEETING ATTHE
COURT HOUSE TODAY.
they viii do To-Day What They
Should Have Done Long ago
Cutting Loose.

Sick and tired OF the practiced
humbuggery and falsity of the
white radical leaders of this city and
county. the respectable and honos-
able colored republicans of Bun
combe, will to-day hold a mass
meeting at the court house which
shall seal the doom of the hypo-
critics who have 50 long, and so eys-.
tematieally cheated The negro out OF
his rights. The scales have fallen,
from the intelligent negra's eyes.
and he is 10 longer going to submit.
to the indignity of being pulled
around by the nose by white radi-
cal leaders, and whipped into line
when he makes complaint at the
Infamous treatment he receives.
Tha negroes are in earnest, and we
are glad to see them at last begins
ming to act for themselves and their
own interests. The way they were
treated by the white radical leaders
and the ''twenty-eight" white radi-
Gals in the convention, held on
September 9th, together with this
late "boodle" dodge, has made the
honest and respectable y Buncombe
negro sick at heart. Who can
blame him, and who is it that
should blame him, for trying to
save himself from the continued
trickery and swipdling, practiced to-
ward him by those who pretend to
be his friends? There is not
white radical leader in the county
of Buncombe, or the State of North
Carolina, who cares one cent about
the negro, after his vote has been
cast. These are facts, and the ne
gro is at last beginning to see them
in their right light. Let the colored
men of Buncombe stand together,
andqrotect themselve and their in
terests. They have nothing to ex-
pect from the white radical leaders.
except falsehood, misrepresentation,
empty promises, aud treachery
The sensible colored men of Bun
combe know that we are
telling them the truth, and we
have only said this in order that
they be warned against the att
tempts Of those hypocrites who pre-
tend to be their friends, to sell them
out again. Again the CITIZEN says
to the colored men of Buncombe,
in the utmost seriousness: "Act for
yourselves and be guarded against
the treachery of tho white radi-
cal leaders Of Buncombe. A mass
meeting of the honest colored re-
publicans will be held to-day at the
court house, at noon, and the follow
ing able, respectable and intelligent
colored men will address the meet

Forney, of Asheville /; Newton Shep.
pard, Drymon Mountain John CHS
holm, Limestone ANDY Russell, Lower

We do not know what the mass
meeting will do. All that we have
got to say to the negroes who
meet here to day, is: 'Act for your
selves, and don't allow the white radi-
cal leaders to again sell qow out, and
make fools Of you P'
ACT FOR YOURSELVES, COLoRED
MEN OF BUNCoMBE; YOU WILL LOSE

col. Lusk,s IIorse,s main.

A few nights ago Col. Lusk, the repub.
lican candidate for the Senate, went to
AYery's Creek to address a republican
meeting. While there some fellow
clipped the end of his horses tail. This
was a very contemplate thing and the
party guilty of it ought to be ashamed of
it. as every good citizen is ashamed for
and of him. It is also stated that the
nut on one of the Colonel's buggy wheels
was removed. This was simply infamous.
Who ever resorts to such conduct, ought
to be punished. With one breath Col.
Lusk's friends say a democrat did it,
while with the next they declare efforts
will be made to find out who did it. It is
just as easy to charge a republican with
the thing as a democrat, but until the
party is known, let it be left to the
meanness of some individual and not to
q party.

In regard to the conduct of some one

of the 25th, I wish to say that no one in
the full faith of the democratic party
approves of it, on the contrary all good
citizens of both parties strongly condemn
it, and all democrats will aid IN ferreting
out the guilty. Itis not known who did it,
and whether by republican or democrat
it was mean act. There were persons
from Henderson county as well as other

the mean act, but whoever did it ought
