HE MUST NOW PUT Up OR

SENATOR Turner, Of Iredell. il con

following resolution in the Senate:
Resolved by the Senate, the House of
Representatives cOncurring,
1st. That the State Treasurer be and
Is hereby authorized 10 set apart q
drawer IN the safe kept in his Office for
the purpose of receiving all conscience
monies that may be returned to the
State by officers and parties who feel
that they have wronged the State by
taxing tAerefTom more than good con-
science Will allow; and that in the event
that any person who has held the office
OF State Printer IN the last twenty Years
should return TO the State Treasury the
bonus they feel they have received from
the State over and above what was COM
mensnrate with the services actually
rendered the State, that the same be i'm
media1ely appropriated to the Soldiers
Home
%. That if any member Of the Gen
eral Assembly fees that he has perpe-
trated a wrong on his constituents by
not advocating a reduction Of the price
OF the State Printing, that said drawer
be opened for his conscientious consid-
Grafton
1t is now in order for Capt. AsHE ito
put up or shut up" He says that when
be was State Printer he did nothing at
all-got good pay for it-and systemati-
ca!ly robbed the Treasury. He says that
himself. 1t is true that he did not say
that he was robber while he was draw
Ing the money, nor when he asked to
have the price raised, nor when he was
| candidate for the place in 1887 or 1889.
His conscience is q dormant one. But
now that it is at last aroused, Senator
TURNER has offered him an opeung in
which he can restore the 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 console ce fund or have
the decency to shut up.
Bear in mind always: That whatever
Capt. AsHE did or did not do as State
Printer, we know nothing. But every
statement he makes il regard to the sal
airy, &c, for the present State Printer is
TOTALLY AND ABsOLU1 ELY FALSE.

COL. SAUND AND TIE RE-
CORDS.
Wilmington Messenger. }

There is a proposition for the Legis-
lature to sLow its appreciation Of the
value of the work done by the Secretary
Of State, Col WILLIAM L. SAUNDERS, IN
editing and publishing the eight vol
umes of the "Colonial Records Of North
Carolina While not owning complete
set of the invaluable work, it has been
our privilege to read some hundreds of
pages Of Col. SAUNDERS contributions
to the work and growing out of the
work, and we have several times ex
pressed in no unstinted words in the
public prints our good opinion of the eX-
cellence and Importance Of the service
rendered by our old school-mate and
friend of 1945'46. So important do we
deem his labors, and so valuable are
these Colonial Records" that we think
they will change much the character OF
! all subsequent histories of North Caro-
| lima. We have been so impressed With
the light thrown upon the past by these
"Recods," and the editorial work OF
COLONEL SAUNDERS, that we have
been reconciled more than ever
to the disappointments this writer
suffered in 1875, when he was
forced to abandon cherished project
Of writing large one volume History
Of the North Carolina People" based
upon Green's unique and original one
volume History "a work of genuine,
superlative genius-and intended both
for popular use and the library. ftha1
work had been prepared IN the four OF
five years to be allotted to the task, i
would have now to be rewritten II
many parts, and because OF the work 81
intelligently and ably done by Col
Saunders
The Legislature could not do a more
commendabe thing than to recognz
the good work done by Col. oAUS
DERs. If they all knew how much bi
: labors will serve to change the curren
of North Carolina historical investiga
: ton in the future, and the new fact
! brought to light both as to men an
f measures, they would not fail to adoE

SENATOR CDRmAN.
A Tribute To Great Democratic
Leader.
(Goldsboro Argus.


This writer has baen a German man
distinctive appellation IN Maryland
since the day when Gorman defeated the
great scholar, orator and lawyer, Pink
ney White, for the United States Senate.
we have suffered a degree of enstrange-
mtnt from friends and associates who
alleged that our faith was wasted on a
man who had none of the elements of q
great Senator nor admirable qualities of
a great leader of men. When the Cres-
cent Club, under Morrison, with Mar
shall, Wallis and Oowen, carried many
of our best and most intimate friends to
a temporary truce with the Republicans,
solely to destroy the political prestige of
German, our faith was unshaken and
our allegiance unbroken.
He lives in the town Of Laurel
Let all the world know him as the
Wise Man Of Laurel.
After the defeat of the cloture resolu-
ton, by reason of the able management
of Mr.. German, the Hon. Chauucey +
Black of Pennsylvania, wrote as follows
'Nor is this the first time Mr. Cor
man has saved the Democratic party
from disaster When his share in the
election of President Cleveland, and in
| the defeat Of the monopoly plot to count
him out and defraud..the people of their
choice, as in 1877, comes to be fully
written it will be chapter Of extraor-
dinary revelations. But for his order,
issued on his own responsibility, to the
| Democrats to celebrate their victory and
keep on celebrating it, day and night,
until it should be acknowledged, the
country would not have been aroused to
the Vaccinations of the monopolists un-
til too late, and Cleveland would have
been placed where Tilden was. But the
real leader Of 1884 was this self same
leader of 1890, who now, upon the high
er stage, and in full view of an anxious
country, has shown, in admirable devel-
opment, knowledge, sagacity, courtesy,
and resolution SO commingled as 70 make
the almost perfect political chief ain. y
am fully convinced!that this century
has not seen, in this country or England,
a man who has combined so admirably
in his intellectual being, the qualities
of both parliamentary and party leader.

Good THING For The 800"

1t was recently announced that the
management of the $500" road had
effected loan of S2l ,OOO, 900 in London
part Of which was to be used in ok
tending the line OF that road, the bel
ance to he applied to wiping out the ex-
listing indebtedness, which amounts to
$l4,OOO,OOO. A st. Paul dispatch gives
the explanation that the Canadian
Pacific road is behind the deal, and that
It's purpose is to complete the Min
neapolis & Pacific from Haplinson, N.
D., to Regime, on the Canadian Pacific,
TINS completing the loop via Sault Ste.
Marie, the twin cities and Hankinson.
This done the Canadian Pacific man
agement proposes to make OF the $500"
route its main line between Montreal,
Boston and the Pacific. 1t is believed
in st Paul railway chcles that this is
the significance OF the action taken by
the owners Of the $500" line in refund
ing its Indebtedness and providing it
with additional resources.
1t is an open secret that the Canadian
Pacific has found railroading north Of
Lake Superior full Of difficulties in the
winter, and that it has been seeking
connections that would enable IL to
handle its traffic without being subject
ed to the necessity Of keeping q long
stretch OF line north Of Lake Superior
open during the winter season at an
enormous expense. 1t is thought that
