DEMOCRATS should stand together
and work as they never did before.
Every man ought to 60 to the polls
and vote the full Democratic ticket.
The individual responsibility of each
voter was never greater than it is to-
day. The result of the State and
Congressional elections depends upon
each voter. 1t is time above all
others when Republicans should be
kept from power in the United States
government. One Congressman might
hold the balance of power. One vote
might elect that Congressman.

THE TARIFF THE OVERSHADOW-
ING ISSUE.


One of the best and ablest papers
of the country devoted to the farm,
the home and stock raising is Home
and Farm, published in Louisville,
KY. 1t has little to do with politics
and for certain reasons has opposed
Mr.. Cleveland, but looking at the
political situation from the farmers
standpoint it believes the tariff is the
overshadowing issue in this contest,
and as the Democratic party is pledged
to tariff reform, our contemporary
arrives at the conclusion that it would
be to the interest of the farmers and
the masses of the people to elect
Cleveland. 1t says:
AS Home and Farm has said before.
1t believes that the overshadowing
issue at this time is that of tariff re-
form. The extent of this reform will
be determined in the future. The
thing to do at present is to begin it..
What the farmers need is not so much
government help, as to be let alone by
the government. The moment the
government begins to protect people,
or to assist them in earning a living,
it steps outside of its sphere. All
legislation of this character is in a
little while controlled not by the
people who need help most, but by
the rich men, and those best able to
take care of themselves.
The traditions of the Democratic
party commit it against this paternal
theory of government. Paternal
government is never a free govern
ment, and the less we have of it in
this country, it matters not who con.
trolls the administration, the better it
is for the people.
For this reason Home and Farm
believes that it is better for the masses
of the people that Mr.. Cleveland
should be the next President than
that Mr.. Harrison should be next
President.

DAVID DUDLEY FIELD, the distin-
guished jurist, has come over to Cleve-
land. "In may view" he says, "Mr.
Harrison represents paternal Govern
ment, Mr.. Cleveland constitutional
Government; Mr.. Harrison indus
trial monopoly, Mr.. Cleveland indus
trial freedom Mr.. Harrison holds, or
his party holds for him, that the
Government should take care of the
people Mr.. Cleveland holds, and his
party holds, that the people should
take care of themselves and their
Government"

TO WHITE MEN.

We want to say just word more
to the white men of Vance county
with regard to the importance OF
voting for good man to represent
US in the Legislature. The contest is
between T. T. Hicks and Jim Watson.
There is no question about that. L.
f. Garrett can not be elected and a
vote for him will be helping Watson
and hurting Hicks Just that much.
Now what will you do? If you don't
vote for Hicks you vote for Jim Wat
son. One of them will as surely be
elected as election comes. If you
do your duty it will be Hicks. Why
should any one suppose that if elected
+. T. Hicks would not we'll and fairly
represent all the people of the county!
He is in feeling, in interest and in
blood as thoroughly identified with
the county of Vance as any man in it.
For I48 years his ancestors have lived
and died and been buried in her soil.
His people are and have with very
few exceptions been tillers of the soil
of Vance and Granville for nearly 50
years. BY their we'll bestowed conf
dence they have established him as
man of affairs. Mr.. Hicks has been
especially noted for his zeal for his
clients and so we'll has he served
them that it is said of him that he has
never lost more than one or two.
Being as he is SO united by the ties
of interest and business and blood to
the people of Vance county, he would
never disregard their true interests
nor favor any measure that tended in
the least degree to their oppression.
The experience of ages has fixed the
qualifications of a law maker to be an
acquaintance with the "0lN laz0, tie
miscAirfand tile remedy." Let the
people of Vance county apply this in
tellectual tape line to the candidates
now in the field and select the one
that comes the nearest to the stand
ard. 1t goes without saying that
Hicks would be overwhelmingly
elected.

The white people of the South at
least should not allow themselves to
be deceived by fair and false speaking
now. The views of the National Re-
publican, [printed on the outside of
GOLD LEAF this week, are the views of
the party whose name it bears. 1t
will be we'll for the Democracy of the
South to read the statements of the
organ and remember them-now and
always. There can be no peace or
safety for the people Of this section of
the country SO long as a force bill is
possible: There will never be any
room for three political parties in
this part of the country so long as the
Republican party is one of them

HERE is what the Louisburg Times
says Of w. F. Stroud, the Third party
candidate who wants to succeed B. H.
Bum in Congress from this district:
Every one who heard and saw Mr..
Stroud in Louisbur-, last Saturday,
was forced to admit that he is not the
proper man to represent this District
in Congress. AS a farmer said to US,
" it would take that man forty years
to get bill through Congress. He
is too slow and is not informed"

The Boston Hc,aLI throws this bit
of irony at the Republican leaders and
bloody shirt haunters:
at is in Benjamin Harrison's State
that a Democrat has been shot and
instantly killed at a political meeting
by a Republican. This is on the
wrong side Of the Mason and Dixon
line, and the wrong man was shot to
furnish the customary remarks from
campaign orators on political terrorism
in this countay."

hung villains the above mentioned chat
tering idiot takes the proverbial "cOok-
ey." In comparison with him the man
who eats soup with labial explosion
resembling the water receding out Of

cherished friend. You are probably &C
quainted with the fiend in human form,
who makes practice of reading pa
per or magazine over your shoulder,
and will quietly request you not to turn
the leaf until he has finished a short
story of two or three columns. You
recognize him, don't you? Well, I would
rather be shut up in 6x9 room with
him than occupy a whole county in
company with the man who says. 81
told you So Imagine, if you can, the
feelings of man who has been work
ing with secret, but faithful diligence
upon some scheme or invention, and af-
ter having every thing all right, as he
thinks, he goes out quietly by himself
to make practical application of his
hard earned inventions; but just as he
thinks success is about to crown his eff
fort he notices small deficiency in the
mechanism (befOre entirely unnoticed }
which makes the whole thing unpracti-
cal: and just as he realizes this bitter
fact, and looks around to see that no
one witnesses his discontinue, he sees
demOniacal-l -visage distored
with horrible grin, staring him blank
in the face, and sees rather than hears.
81 told you So" More lives have been
wrecked, more bright aspirations frozen
to death, more genius extinguished by
this human ogre than his small soul
can atone for throughout eternity.
But l think st. Peter is "Onto' him,
and will have horrible punishment in
store for such. 1 think l see him ap-

frown upon his usually pleasant coun-
tenance, and puts to him the fatal ques-
tiOns: Are you the man who made
life hideous to the citizens of Earth by
continually saying, Il told you SOP"
The culprit trembling in every limb adj
mits his guilt. Then will mankind lie
avenged-the villain will be consigned
to a cell in Hades. in company with the
man who asks, "Is this hot enough for
you?' S. Mile.
