IAN OPPORTUNITY FOR ANOTHER IN
DIGNATION MEETING.
"Is it not about time for the pco-
pie Of GoldsbOro to hold another in
dlgnation meeting? Last fall when
Major Grant, J. +. Dodson and 9TH
ers went down into Little Washing
ton to consult with the cDlored
brother about politics, a certain set
in this town raised terrible howl
about it and said all decent people
should condemn it, and further, tried
to insult every man hat was seen or
known to be consulting with u col
ored man about how he should vote
in the approaching election, provided
he was not working in the interest of
the Democratic machine. Now,
presto-change. Last Sunday some
of these same men who figured in
that indignation business were over
in Little Washington engaging with
| r ha 1DI,,,I
mortal service over another colCred
brother. We know the excuse they
will give tor being THAR, but we
will wait and let them give it, after
which we will make few remarks
giving the true inwardness Of the
, whole matter"
We have waited more than tv o
| weeks while the stiffness of death has
relaned around the Democratic ma
chine headquarters and the Office of
the Augustine machine organ.
We are forced to draw on our own
resources for aE explanation. What
did this pilgrimage of the Democra-
tic bosses down TO see the oo'ored
brother mean: Were they invited
If so, did that lessen the crime of 90
ing? When the machine bosses got
up that Indignation meeting against
Dobson, Smith, Grant and others,
did they stop to inquire if they were
also invited!
Why was the man who was IL the
head of the school down there re-
moved: and another put in his
place: Messrs. W. +. kornegav, c.
b. Aycock, W. r. Allen, ". r.
Dortch, W. &. Munroe, ID. J. Broad
hurst and Ii. l.. Grant. we believe.
are the board. Can or will some of
these gentlemen give us the reason ?
Don't all speak at once. What was
the politics of the former snperjn-
tendent and what is the politics of
the present one2 Did the former re-
fuse to promise to advise the colored
man to vote with Democrats. and
does the present one say he shall so
advise them: If the anst.rs ia
these questions were published /
would no doubt be evident that there
was more politics ia this meeting
than the one attended by Messrs.
Dooson, Grant, Smith i nthers
lhe machine must get the vote Of
the colored brother NEXT wear and
