LET'S TALK OF PLEASANTER
TOPICS AND MORE INTER.
ESTING SUBJECTS.

The STATE CHRONICLE has always
deprecated any heated arguments
in Democratic journals. The people
take paper to get the news and not to
be regaled with abuse of the editors ri
walls or enemies. We have hated to give
so much space to subject so arid. .insipid,
dull, stale and profitless as CAPT
SAMUEL A. AsaE. Justice to this
paper and the Legislature demanded
that we expose his constant and
recurring misrepresentation. Now
that we have exposed them.
it is with pleasure that we turn to SUBJ
jects more interesting and attractive. In
no aspect is he an interesting or pleasant
subject, and we regret that with so many
bright topics of general interest this pa
per has been compelled to devote so
much space to exposing his reckless
statements, his Inconsistencies, his dog
in-the- manger spirit, and his abortive
attempt to malign the Democratic Legis
lature.
But we are done. The people under
stand his purpose and his animus They
know the motive that impels certain
corporations to try to break down the
STATE CHRONICLE, and they know the
ability and power of those corporations
to sustain Capt. AsHE without public Of
fee or even in taking public work
at emunerative rates. They
will take care of him.

New Hanover county in the Legislature
of North Carolina. MAJ. WILLIAM A.
HEARNE, then publishing the Carolinian,
Democratic newspaper in Raleigh,
offered to take the State Printing at SO
cents per thousand ems for composition
Mr., WARING, of Mecklenburg, was Chair
man of the Committee on Printing. He
wanted to accept MAJ HEAENE's eff r.
CAPT. AsHE led opposition to 1t. The
Democratic caucus preferred Mr. josiah
TURNER as State Printer. CAPT AsHE
drew the bill by which then and now tn,
Committee on Printing was given the
power to make the contract. MIR. TUR-
NHR was given the printing at sc 3
cents per 1000 ems in the face OF MAJ
HEARNE's offer to take it at SIS cents. Mr..
WARINa resigned as Chairman OF the
Committee on Printing and CAPT AsHK

not advocating reduction of the price
of the State Printing, that said drawer

GRAFTON.
1t is now in order for Capt. AsHE TO
put up or shut up" He says that when
he was State Pril Ter he did nothing at
all-got good pay for it-and systemati-
cally robbed the Treasury. He says that
himself 1t is true that he did not say
that he was robber while be was draw
ing the money, nor when he asked to
have the price raised, nor when he was a
candidate for the place in 1887 or 1889.
His conscience is . dormant one. But
now that it Is at last aroused, Senator
TURNER has offered him an opening in
which he can restore tho money which he
says he obtained by robbing the tax.pay-
ers. If he has any regard for decency
or consistency, he will either pay this
money into the conscience fund or have
the decency to shut up.
Bear in mind always: That whatever
Capt. AsHs did or did not do as State
Printer, we know nothing. But every
statement he makes in regard to the sal
ary, &C., for the present State Printer is
TOTALLY AND ABsOLU1KLY FALSE.
The state chronicle., 1891-02-11
ACLEAN BREAST.

CAPT. AsHE proposes that we shall maze
a clean breast. By this he means that
we shall set up in our columns our
profit and loss account in order that be
may inspect and criticise the items, and
reach bis own conclusion as to our exact
nrofits. He seems to think that the
public will accept from him the bare
statement that his own profits as State
Printer we're $1,000 and spare him the
pains and trouble of giving them bill
of particulars.
While making clean breasts is in or
der, if CAPT. AsHE has a right to insist
that We call upon the public to wade
through an itemized statement OF hun
dred columns with a probable result OF
allowing him to state his own conclu-
sions for his readers, who would not have
time to examine into the subject. we
suggest that he give the people An item
lied statement of the profits he has
derived as a journalist and prin-
ter from the patronage of any railroad
corporation or corporations. In his
public utterances he has always been so
Jealous and faithful friend to certain
corporations that we infer as matter OF
course these soulless institutions have
actually manifested gratitude by some
substantial return in the way of print
ing, dvertisements, &c.
The state chronicle., 1891-02-11
IT Is NOT THE TRUTH.

The statement by the News and o.
server that the Committee on Printing
hastened to make contract is not true.
1t has always been customary for the
Printing Committee to meet on the day
after the caucus and name the Printer
and make the contract. This year the
committee met and drew up az elaborate
report, together with their findings,
and postponed making the contract until
after their report had been UNANIMOUS
LY adopted by both Houses. After the
adoption of the report by a unanimous
vote of the Legislature. there was no
reason for delay in making the contract.
There is not member OF the Committee
who in honor, integrity and every attri-
butte of honesty is not the superior of
CAPT. AsHE, and his groundless refec-
tions upon them will fall harmless, and
their only effect will be to react upon
himself and his unfair and miserable
sheet,
