Let Chickering's Cease.

THE DEMOCRAT has always advo.
Gated conservatism as long as there
seemed any virtue in 1T. That was
the attitude of this paper towards
those who became drunken with the
high hopes of speedy relief through
the Alliance, which eliminated IN
the formation of Thlrdparty,
which has died as soon as born.
Even after good men went astray
we were slow to denounce them,
aud have always pitied many OF
them more than we have blamed
them.
When it came to the heat of the
battle The DEMOCRAT drew it's blade
and struck blow wherever it saw
a chance to make it tell. But now
1t is all over, the victory is won,
and we are the conquerors, let US
cease chickering's and strife. 1t
good men Will come pack let them
come and welcome, and if any be so
foolish as to still think there is room
for Thlrd.paIty, let them De quiet
IL Joined to their idol. Let's work
now for unity and harmony.

Chairman Green.

Then confidence is expressed Id
ones ability by eIecting or appoint
ing him to position of frost, the
true man appreciates it and bends
every energy to meet the obligations
which such confidence places him
under. When the democratic party
of Halifax county reelected Dr. L.
Z. Green IS chairman OF its execu.
tive committee, It expressed such
confidence in him.
As to how much be appreciated
it and how Well he has discharged
the consequent obligations, the com
plete and astounding victory which
the party has gained In the county
fully expresses. DR.. Green has
done much work and has kept bis
forces we'll organized and be IS en-
titled to more than a passing com>
pliment.
But with him the ranl and file of
the whole democratic party is eu>
titled to three rousing cheers, for
every man has been at his best and
has done what be could.
Surely it is in order for US all to
rejoice together, and we all rejoice.

AN ALABAMA ELECTION.

Mr.. John I. Brink,ey writing to
THE DEMOCRAT from Eufaula, Ala >,
says:
81 spent yesterday in this beautiful
little city son the Chattahoochee,' -
and watched with particular inter
est the voting. This town polls
1860 votes, and out of this number
Cleveland got every vote except SO.
Five Of these were white and the
balance were negroes. So you may
say the negroes voted solidly for the
Democrats. Weaver won't SIN IT,
Last Dight when the returns came In.
| occupied a front seat ID the
theater where the returns we're
received. In the hall were some 70
or 100 negroes, who seemed to enjoy
the good news as much es any one.
The Democrats finally called on three
of them to speak. They cheeriully
came forward and made good speech
es In their style. This was enjoy a.
BILE TO me, for l had never seen such
before. [ am anxious to hear from

THE WORK OF THE PRESS.

In his great speech here on Sep
tember 9th, Hon. w. r, Henry SAID
that the press is the advance wave
of civilization. It vas high com
pliment, but in many respects well
deserved. Aud IN the great polltl-
cal victory that the democratic par
ty has Just gained, much OF the
work was done by the press OF the
country..s
From almost every hamlet and
town IN this broad land some news
paper, however modest in its pre-
teDtions, has been working persists
entity to send out the truth to the
people. The great army of dallles
and city papers has thus been
strengthened by the country papers,
and so they have made their party
as effective as the speakers on the
hustlngs, tor they have reached
more people and oitener.
After all, then, the press Is enti~
tied to a genel Gus share 10 the glory
that comes to those who have
fought In this great battle.

CHAIRMAN SIMMONS.

The voice Of the whole democrat.
ic party Of North Carolina goes up
as the voice of one man in praise of
the great work Chairman F. M. Sim
mons has done during the cams
paign that has just closed, The un.
stinted praise that the people Of
North Carolina are bestowlng upon
him is well merited and has been
won through the hottest and most
exciting political campaign that has
been witnessed in the State within
the life OF many OF the citizens who
voted for Cleveland and Carr.
The people of Wilmington through
she suggestion of the Star, will raise
a fund to present him with suitable
memorial.
A telegram from Kinstoa to the
Richmond Dispatch Saturday, says /:
Thousands of people greeted
Chairman Simmons at every rail
road station as he was returning
home. At Kinston Chairman Grain
ger introduced him as David return
ing from the political battle, having
slain his tens of thousands of Gid
eonites. Over 2 900 people weleom.

AGAIN TO PROGRESS.

The country will soon settle down
to business again and the excite
ment of the campaign will be torgof
ten. The great strides that tie coun-
try has been making in varlous lines
of progress will continue. Under q
democratic administration the az.
rlculturlsts of the country nope to
see a change that will work to their
interest. and all confidently believe
that such charge Will be wrought.
Mr. Cleveland has said more than
once that when ne was writing his
great tariff message he was think
ing most of the American farmer.
And so the American farmer eX>
poets to find some relief from his
oppression, aud we believe he will
get all that an honest democratic
administration can give him.
But let no one sit down and ex-
pect prosperity to flow into his lap
SIMPLY because we are to have a
democratic administration. No ad-
miniStration can make prosperity
tor any man or class of men; but a
clean and honest administration OF
the government can greatly assist
men to become prosperous, and can
only assist. So 1t is left with the
individual man after all to WORK out
his own prosperity by the aid CT a
Just and impartial administration of
the government.
And now if every one will bend
his energies for progress and pros>
perity with as much persistence as
he has been compelled to do to keep
the wolf from the door, we believe
that prosperity will still bless the
land. the people will be happy and
the progress and development Oh
our resources will take a new life
and we shall see reign of person
al independence worthy of this
great country, whose greatest boast
is our blrth-right OF freedom and
the kingshlp OF every man.
