More Cheap John Work.

John Wanamaker, p os t
Master General OF the United
States, it seems, cannot raise
himself above the most mar
row spctionalism and parti-
zanship. He has refused to
recommend the annual appro
priation for Especial Mail Pa
cilities," for the special NEIL
Grain running between New
York and Florida. He well
knows that this train cannot
be run without special pay,
and that the taking off OF the
fast mail will be a serious in
jury to the people OF the
South Atlantic States, butit
seems that is the very ching
he is aiming at. Ever since
his appointment to the i'm
portant posi- on he now
holds, lie has shown himself
to be a narrow minded bigot
and ins tie a d OF work
ing FOR the interests of the
whole country, he has work
ed to injure and offend the
South in every way possible.
We trust that he will not be
allowed to carry out his plan
of petty malire. A republi-
can Congressman from Wan
amaker's own city, W t h
whom we discussed the mat
ter a short time ago, express
ed the opinion very freely
that Wanamaker was acting
very uniustly in the matter,
and that he would oppose
the cutting down of the ap-
preparation. We hope the
congressman from the Old
North State will.fisht vigor-
ously against this act Of in
justice. They will find plen-
ty of help from the Congress
men from New York to Flor
ida. The State expects them
to see that this wrong is not
carried out. We hope they
will,not disappoint the peo-
pies expectations -Ro c k v

confirmed as. to the notice
served upon Mr.. l.. L. Polk
concerning his paper and the
third party. There are in the
Alliance tens Ofthousands of
true, unfagging democrats.
They know the past. They re
member reconstruction, the
Canby Government, the days
OF radical plnnder and whole
sale wrong, the reign sof ter
ror IN 1869-'70, the redemp
tion Of the State by the dem
ocrats, the return of peace
and contentment, the Begin
ming of prosperity, the resto-
ration of economy, honesty
and fidelity in the public SER
vice, the disappearance of the
corporal of the guard from
the ballot box, the opening
of the public schools to both
sexes, and a dawning era of
good will ssamong the races.
They know how usurping, sec
tional, vicious, unfriendly, eX
travagant, venal and uncon-
stitutional has been the ac-
tion of the republican party
in control OF the Federal Gov
erninent. They know how
oppressive in taxes, how un-
equal in legislation, how hos
tile in appointments to office
has been the course of the re.
publican Presidents and their
chief officials around them.
They have not forgotten
t h e S e tllings-these stereo-
typed facts. They will not
forget them. They know that
disintegration Of the white
mans party in theSouth sim
ply invites destruction and OF
the fateful precursor of a Ie-
turn to power of venal politi-
clans and barbaric antago-
nism.
So long as the democrats
have intelligence and patriot
ism--a proper sense OF safety
and a needful regard for pros
perity they will not lend them
selves to dividing the party
and putting political pirates
on board. A ship in the great
stress of a violent storm to
be deserted by half the crew,
that those remaining might
at once scuttle it or runlt OH
a rock bound coast, would be
in no worse condition than
North Carolina left without
an united democratic party,
Let divisions come and good
by to all that makes North
Carolina a desirable State in
which to live.
The democrats must get to-
gether and stick together if
they would prevent a great
disaster. Prosperity and
peace depend upon an unity
of hearts and an union Of
hands.
1t is a time OF peril. The
farmers will suffer asmuch or
more than any other class if
the negro party once more
