wilkes County Democracy.

Especial Correspondence of The Sentinel
ED. SENTINEL :--Fowle is dear to
the Democracy of Wilkes, because he
was the first man that ever redeemed
her from Republican Oppression in rs.
1t is true she has fallen from grace
since then, but by Fowler's help, and
by the aid of the n: tural impetus De-
mocracy now has she roposes to
redeem her spotted record, and become
once again pure i'll the Democratic
faith. 1t was refreshing to see the
"tenth legion" of the Fowle forces.
Wilkes and surrounding counties
stand by their champion in the State
convention At all times ready to
obey the will of the majority but still
preferring the majority to he for their
man.
At the recent election for county
commissioners the Democrats propus-
ed to the republicans to elect the old
board, which was composed of two
Democrats and one Republican,, but
the Republicans hooted at the idea,
so the Democrats were forced to put
in an entire Democratic board.
Why was Matt and his faction
hundened with honors at their State
convention and why did they put
such a good man ON the ticket for
Lieutenant Governor, and what makes
L L. Green SO sanguine of his partys
success.

Baltimore Sun
Thurman has often shown a decid-
ed dissemination to accept nominations
and offices offered to him. He was on
one occasion declaring to coterie OF
friends at Oakland, Md that he did
not wish to be nominated for Presi
dent. At this the most of the compa
ny thrust their tongues in their cheeks
and smiled smile of gentle disbelief
Soon after Thurman began about the
size and excellence of Ohio catfish
saying he had often seen fine speci-
mems weighing seventy or eighty
pounds. His remarks were received
with another broad grin by his com
panions, which plainly said that he
was doubted. When Thurman re
turned to Columbus he went to The

he obtained as many receipts as pos

his friends but the mystery was sool
solved by the arrival of seventy fv,

1.-THE COMING REVOLUTION"

This was the subject of an Grafton
by Mr.. E. P. Withers, of Danville,
Va, at the recent University Com
mencement. While it was one of the
best and an admirably thought ora
ton, it is not the present purpose of
the SENTINEL to write an article es-
pecially to praise it. but to touch upon
some of its points.
He spoke of the dissatisfaction of
American labor, how it is burdened
by taxes and scanty wages until a
revelation seems impending Of the
giant organizations called TRUSTS"
that keep up prices, put down wages
and control legislation. With fire red
words he portrayed, the horrors of the
French Revolution, of the great strikes
and riots in England's past history, of
the recent strikes in New York and
Chicago and told how men, brutalized
by want and without hope of lettering
their condition had madly waved the
anarchists rag, violated the laws OF
God and man and suffered the death
penalty for their crime. The speaker
described the ,ndition of the times,
but failed to suggest remedy. This
the SENElNEL would do by giving the
people the right to buy where necessa
| ries are cheapest and sell their labor
for the highest price. In other words
give a low tariff in exchange for i
high one and pass laws preventing
Trusts and swindling corporations.
There are thousands of workin.
people at the North, whose lives ar
like those of dumb animals, contin
uous round of burden /; whose wive
daily repeat the scene described in tn
ssSong ofthe Shirt" whose children de
/ veid of education, must grow up to i

cell. Of course there are those who's
thrittless habits will always keep then
poor, but there are vast number c
honest t0ilers who can never rise, be
cause necessaries arc high and wage
are low.
Is this picture pleasant ? Is th
present condition of things safe : ]
not, then let US learn the cause an
remove it. One sentence will give tn
cause Republican legislation. It put
] tax on all that the working man cal

and wears It collects his dollars
and pays them over to northern sold
iers, squanders them in building worth
less ships and gives them away to land
and railroad compares; 1t puts enough
tax on necessary articles to keep
foreign competition out of our market
and thus compel our people not only to
pay full value for the article but pay, in
addition, the amount Of the tax to
allow Trusts to be formed which say
how much of an article shall be made,
at what price it shall sell and whether
or not the workmen shall be allowed
to work all the time or only half, with
half pay.
This can not last long. There must
be either Revolution or Evolution.
Chicago and her Anarchists were a
terrible warning. Let it be enough.
Under the Republican plan the rich
grow richer and the poor poorer every
day. This will result in Revolution.
The Democratic party proposes Ev-
olution. They propose to evolve
system OF government that will pro-
tect the wage worker and at the same
time the employer. This is shown by
the selection of Hepry Watterson as
Chairman of the Committee on Plat
form at the St. Louis C-nv ention.
Mr.. Watterson is a low tariff man.
He believes in the "Star- eyed Goddess
of Reform" and by his influence the
platform was drawn in line with Cleve-
lands message, tariff for revenue
only, which means cheaper necessa-
ries. Listen to few words from that
platform
"The cry of American labor for a
better share in the rewards of indus
try is stifed with the false pretenses
of Republicanism that enterprise is
fettered and bound down to home
markets that capital is discouraged
with doubt and that the existing une-
quail, unjust laws can neither be prop
erly amended nor repealed because of
the same balefui Influence"
1t further says: "The free men of
our land, the immense majority, in
Guiding every tiller of the soil, gain
no advantage from the excessive tax
laws of RepIblicanism, but the price of
nearly everything they buy is increas-
ed by the favoritism of the unequal
| system of taxation"
cit is repugnant to the creed of the
Democracy" it continues, "that by
such taxation the cost of the necessa-
ries of life should be unjustifably in
creased to all our people. Judged by
Democratic principles the interests Of
the people are betrayed when by un-
necessary taxation trusts and combin
ations are permitted to exist, which,
while unduiy enriching the few that
combine, tend to the robbery of our
citizens by depriving them of the ben
efits of natural competition
Now the question before the people
is: Shall we allow the present state Of
things to continue our money scarce,
our pockets robbed by the thieving
Republican tariff, until labor revolts
and our government is wrecked amid
the wild upheaval Of oppressed man
kind, or shall we vote the Democratic
ticket and support party which pro
tects our best interests, throttles
"Trusts" and insures the blessings o.
perpetual and peaceful govern
ment 4? Which
