The western sentinel. [volume] (Winston-Salem, N.C.) 1887-1926, 1892-09-29

A REPUBLICAN who can swallow
the Reynolds asten ticket must
not only have good stomach but
his digester needs to be strengthened
considerably.
ALL the fair Northern papers have
word of praise for Mr.. Cleveland's
letter. The fact that it is only one
half the length of Mr.. Harrison's is
favorably commented upon
CLEvELAND's letter and Hill'sspeech
show, that if there have ever been
separate Cleveland and Hill wings of
Democracy, they have tapped to-
gether most accordantly.
THE Atlanta papers, especially the
Journal, have been showing up Gen.
Viewers cruel war record, and now !
the Georgia people have forced him
to brt ak his appointments in their
State.
THOSE who know the habits of the
eccentric young mineralogist Yer
hoeff believe him still alive. 1twOuld |
not surprise many scientists if he !,
turns up sometime with important |
discoveries to report to the world.
CHAIRMAN TAGGART Of the Indiana
Democratic Executive Committee was
at the New York National headquar
tiers the other day and expressed his
opinion that Indiana was safe for
Cleveland and Stevenson.
FROM the large amount of space
that the Union Republican gives to
W. R. Lindsay. Marion Butler, Tom
Watson and others, it would not be ]
a great surprise to see that paper
support the Third party ticket.
The Editor ofthe Republican writes
that Democratic newspapers here in
North Carolina are boasting of a
Democratic victory in Maine" That
is not so. They rejoiced over a Re-
publican loss of 6 900 votes.
THERE is one common enemy to
the Peoples party and TO the Demo
cIatic party. 1t is that led by Ben
iamin Harrison and William McKin-
ley, who represent the two great
evils of Monopoly and Force.
IT would be a disgrace to elect
Sheriff league after he has shown
his cowardice, his incompetence, and
his bad faith. There is enother can
didate, brave. active, vigilant man.
His name is Macarthur.
THERE is always, in every cam
paign, an element that likes to be
with the winning side. They are not
to be commended for it but their
votes will count, and it is clear now
which is the winning side.
GEN. WEAvER's prophecies will not
deceive any one. He canYassed Ar
kansas thoroughly and predicted
victory TOR his party there; but the
Democratic ticket led the Weaver
ticket by about sixty thousand
votes.
FRANK ALsPAUGH, who was defeat
ed in the Democratic county conven-
ton for the nomination of sheriff,
and was vexed at the time, shows
commendable spirit in doing all he
can for the success of his opponent,
Bob Macarthur.
ALL true Southern people will sym
pathize with President Harrison in
the prolonged illness of his wife. 1t
is now said that while Mrs. Harri-
sons life may be prolonged for some
time yet there is no hope of her ulti-
| mate recovery.
THOSE who give employment to
the colored people of the South are
| almost universally white Democrats
from whom they get good wages to
buy food and clothes. The Southern
Republicans do very little for the col
ored people whose votes they claim.
| NORTH CAROLINA has furnished
three Observation-Disclosures Jackson,
James K. Polk and Andrew Johnson.
There was North Carolina blood in
Rufus King, Vice-President, and it
exists also in Adlai E. Stevenson, the
next Vice-President.
| BUTLER refuses to meet Glenn in
Salisbury. Butler was the first to
express an ardent desire to meet Mr..
Glenn He did so in the Forsyth
county court house. Glenn gave
him all the opportunity he wanted.
Now he don't want any more. Hur
rah for Glenn.
| Mr.. CLEVELAND letter shows that
he endorses the Chicago platform
unqualifiedly. AS was to be expect
ed he dwells first and principally
| upon the tariff question. He puts
the force bill issue second and well
says that to resist such scheme is
