and we have disclaimed, as superrog-
otory, all efforts at eulogism. We>are
but giving vent to the spontane BUS
expressions of our hearts, rendering
unto Caesar the things which are Ce
sar's. But we may bid this trusty
defender of our rights God speed on
his journey to v q greater usefulness
to our people. He is backing on his
srmor afresh in defense OF his native
State; and his experience and natural
character, grooveG into habits of &C.
ton, has created strength for him, as
nothing else could create it; for use
fulness of the Statesman consists as
much in she knowle 1ge how to do, as
In the doing when once known. Our
Representative has, then, the courage
and the genius necessary for success
full Craftsmanship, and he has the
experience to grapple with the ext
gencies of the hour.
Let us look to him then and
other representatives in the Federal
Congress to stand up with over in
creas ng energies, wisdom ami patiot-
ism for an amelioration of the condi-
ton of the agricultural and industrial
maintainaIce of u rights in the
Union. 1t is needless to deny, yes it
is wrong to conceal, that a crisis is at
hand. There is an unr 9st among the
people, aid all wise men know that it
is not easy to fix boundary lines to
the agitation set on foot. We have
but done our duty in conservative in
structions as reflective of the senti-
ments of our constituents. No man
knows their meaning Their full force
and effect Better than Senator Zebu
Ion B. Vance If | thought that he
would be a party to or try to relieve
himself of their force and effect, by a
strained constru ;tion of this or that
word, l would not hesitate to vote
against him; but believing as I do,
that Senator Vance understands the
instruction, that they are the conse
vative chrystalized sentiments of his
and our constituents; that they were
given not in enmity or criticism, but
in love, both for the cool OF the par,
ty and the people, and that he will
plant himself squarely on the ever
truth of things and die, if
need be, for the right. 1 take great
pleasure in casting my vote for this
grand old Roman.
PaITCHARD NOMINATED.
Mr.. Hendricks of Davie, said: I
thank God that it is no longer a crime
to be 3 young An. [ desire sir, to
place in nomination for the high pc
sition of United States Senator a man
name is not unknown in North
A man who would fill that
ex lted position with great credit to
himself AM with honor to his State
and country. A man of the highest
att1inment. Though a young
man he is a statesman in the broad
est sense of the term. A man who be.
lieves thas every legal voIer in this
count y should be protected in thatloy-
al franchise which the constitution o.
the Uni9ed States guarantees. A
man who knows enough to know that
the people of the United States should
have a currency that is legal tender
the country over; that money is the
representative of labor; that every
dollar has got to be dug out of the
ground, and who knows enough to
know that money cannot be made by
resolutions in political o
ventions and State Legislatures and
who knows enough to know that when
prosperity comes to the people of this
country that it must come hand in
hand by the open furnace door; hand
hand with the flaming forge; hand
hand by the whirling spindles and
busy looms; and who knows enough
know that when prosperity comes
must come hand in hand with every
industry of the sons of toll; hand in
hand by the snowy cotton fields; hand
hand by the waving fields of wheat
and the rustling field of corn, which
nan is Jeter @. Pritchard with an in
with sound principles and with
heart full of the milk of human
kindness. Like the armed warrior,
10 would stand upon the floor of the
and battle for the eternal
rights of the common people. l
heartily recommend this young tai
ented, and patriotic North C%arolinian
20 you for your favorable support.
