INCAPABLE 0F5sEL F-GOVEaHMEET.

Senator George, of Mississippi,
in his speech on the Federal Elec-
ton Bill, hit the nail square on
the head.
He said that he had gone
through the history of the legis-
lation, and the constitutional
provisions of Northern and Wes-
tern States, not with a view of
charging their people with incon-
sistency, but with the view of
showing the Judgment OF the
American people that the negro
race was incapable of self-govern-
ment.
This is the point exactly, and
makes answer to every charge
brought against the Southern
people during all the conflicts
and experiences since the en-
reimbursement OF the cOlOred race.
That people We're incapable of a
proper and intelligent exercise of
the rights of franchise, and the
experiment was a dangerous one
to our Institutions.
Notwithstanding the general
and gratifying progress of that
race in the most favored locali-
ties, it is still an undeniable fact
that they are not yet fit custodi-
ans of the American ballot, nor
safe directors of the institutions
oflfree, republican government.

The late Gen. f. E. Spinner.
former Treasurer OF the United
States, was the first Federal Off
cial to employ female clerks in
departmental service, Il benefi-
cent custom now universal in all
the public offices of the country.
UNLIKE most places OF rapid
growth and development, Win
ston has not been given to blow
ing, vain glorificatiOn and
boasting, but has contented her
self with q. modest showing of
|. what she is doing. She has
sought to induce no one to come
here through misrepresentation,
or the holding out of false hopes.
Our people have encouraged no
enterprise in which failure seemed
likely, and hey want no one to
come to engage in anything like
~ to meet disappointment.
About all that is here has been
made by good honest hard work
patient toll, steady industry,
cautious movement and good
business Judgment. All success
here has been earned. We have
the town and the country for
business progress and prosperous
Improvement, and too much
could not well be said forWinston,
Salem and the surroundingcoun-
try; and whoever comes here to
invest money, engage his energies,
and employ his time, is bound
to succeed, if he is steady, and
Industrious, and exercises ordina
ry prudence and Judgment.

energy and severity. The State of

to double his press ana
cilities.
While we ungrudgingly copgra
ulate our friend, the enemy, we taxi
this occasion to direct the attention
of the reading Democratic pub ic to
the matterof an adequate support
of their own papers, something that
deeply concerns whatsoever may feel
interested in the welfare of the Dem
ocratic party.
We have not hitherto been en-
iged in the publication of weekly
paper, and these matters have been
outside of our province, but we have
thought it reproach to the Democ-
racy of this community that the OPP
position paper, for circulation among
the masses of voters in the country
should be accorded better support
than the weekly Democratic papers,
and thus permitted to WELD great
er influence in the politics of this
section than the old established Dem
ocratic organ of thirty-fve years.
The Republican party certainly
does not contain larger number of
reading people in its ranks, nor are
they better able to support their pa
pers, than the Democrats of this
section of the State. Then why was
it so? When other sections were
struggling to maintain Democratic
supremacy in North Carolina, what
right had we here TO supinely throw
away the chances, and neglect the
agencies of Democratic success, when
the welfare of the people of the
whole State might have Deepen led

and the Democrats of Forsyth and
the surrounding counties should

they must see to it that it does
hereafter.
We have lately cine into posses
sion of THg WEST ERN SENTINEL.
We shall make it worthy of the
strongest support in the State. We
intend that it shall have the larges.
circulation and We call upon Dem
ocrats in town and country, and al.
the counties around, to come up t.
the cheerful support of their pape:
We will do our duty. They mus
do theirs.
1t must not be said, after this
that the Democratic weekly is inft
rior in circulation and influence t,
its Republican contemporary, and j

Capt. John S. Wise, who went
over to the Republican party in
company with Gen. Malone, ex-
presses his contempt for the cleo
ton bill. In an interview in
Richmond, he declared that in
New York Democrats and Re
publicans alike were opposed to
it, and that sSif the bill passed
it will only result in the killing
of a few negroes.

route lists of THE DAILY; our
files, books, papers, and business
desk; and about all of our office
furniture, bookcase and library
were destroyed or ruined. The
old subscription books of THE
SENTINEL, for which we had late
" paid several thousand dollars,
were also lost; but they had
fortunately been transcribed, and
these transcripts were spared,
save the separates" or single
wrapper lists, which are lost.
The old books We're valuable for
the amounts due on them, but
they were chiefly priced by US for
the long lists of names they con-
tanned of former patrons of THE
WESTERN SENTINEL.
We shall have to ask the sub
\scribers of THE DAILY to bear
with and aid us all they cansin
he restoration OF our mailing
and city route lists. And if any
reader of The SENTINEL shall fail
to receive his paper, after this
week, he must attribute it to the
loss of a part of the list; and all
such should write to us at once.
We nave, altogetherf suffered a
serious loss, far beyond that COW
cred by insurance on the material
and fixtures of HE DAILY office,
but we are neither dOwned nor
dismayed. While we watched
the flames some Of the foremost
citizens and business men tender
ed their sympathies with assur-
ances of any material aid and
substantial help that might be
ound necessary to restore ourt
plant and business, should, as
then seemed imminent, THE SEN
TINEL building, as well as the
office of THE DAILY, be totally
destroyed. We highly appreciate
these marks Of favor and public
approval; and they tighten the
burden of labor and loosen the
tension of such a crisis. But fort

The young West has openly re-
belled against the measure, and
practically defied party discipline
and power. Senator's Teller and
Wolcott, of Colorado, have ably
spoken against the bill, and it is
known that the Western Sena-
tors are generally antagonistic
to it, and FESTIVE under the delay
to which it has subjected needed
financial legislation.
The desperate fortunes of the
bill have brought the Senate to
the unusual nece ssity of provid-
ing Il rule for cutting off debate,
an unprecedented circumstance
in the annals of the Senate. Its
very clear that the Force Bill is
on the verge of destroying Re
publican harmony and unity il
Congress, and suspending discip
line in the party ranks.

advantage to the Democratic
Senator's, and they have made
