5 THE following letter to THE
ARGUS, written by Mr.. j. T.
} Smith, of the Greenleaf section
| of this county, tells of the death
of his loving companion through
life and of his assurance of a re-
union beyond life's vale of tears:
My dear, darling wife has left
me TIC join the immortal throng.
She died the 18th of October at
go o'clock a. m. She died very
happy and is gone to that blest
home, where at the last day we
shall both meet to part no more "
IN these times Of political war
fare, when a':Jeffersonian" makes
a beautiful Republican and a
Populite enjoys to be fondled
and delights in the Interchange
of caresses with the RAIDS. and
the tWaine under one banner
have a wonderful relish and
h~ankerlng after the sapid flesh
pots of officeland, it is high time
for the Democrats to rise up and
save the country from wholesale
debauchery. Let US be up and
doing with our working clothes
on, keeping the old flag dancing
to the breezes.
THE Republican opulist com
blne candidates in their county
canvass at Dudley Tuesday
were beseiged by Messrs. w. T.
Dortch and Dial. NJ. Hardy for a
division of time, but the craven
crew, knowing the untenableness
of their position in a joint debate
and fearing the light of Demo
cratic truths, refused to allow
Messrs. Dortch snd Hardy the
desired division of time. But it
doesn't matter. The people all
over the county are repudiating
the molly mob that constitute
the fusion ticket in this county
and senatorial district and on
the 9th day of November they
will be annihilated by the indig-
nant votes of an enlightened and
patriotic people. Anarchy and
communism cannot prevail in
North Carolina.
II there is one principle or
policy upon which the Democra-
tic party if united and harmon
lous, that one is an honest tariff.
Ii there is n principle of policy
Which the great majority of the
people of the United States up-
qualifedly endorse, that one is an
honest tariff. If there is a poll
teal party to which the people
may look to secure and maintain
legislation embOdying this great
end, that party is the Democra-
tic party. The people of North
Carolina realize this truth, and
this is the cause that operated s
and now operates powerfully
against the scheme of Butler and
associates to deliver his follow
ers over to the Republican party, +
tie instrument and agent Of the :
rObber trusts and combines.
These are the reasons why in
telligent and honest voters ,
Of North Carolina refuse to aid {
give countenance to the cleo :
ton OF the Republicans who are ,
now running for Office in North ,
Carolina. Some of those, who /
have heretofore followed the
fortune of Butler may not by :
their votes support the Demo +
cratic nominees on the 9th Of
November, but out of honest /
pride and self-interest they will .
wholly refuse to assist in put :
ting men like III. L. Grant in the r
Legislature to undo the work of
the Democrats in this State. The j..
Democratic party never had a j
greater opportunity to win back s
every malcontent. We have but s
follow the known principles y
Of our faith. In these the peo- y
pie believe. In them the party i
stakes its claim to the support +
Of the honest, intelligent voters :
the country, and by them we
shall surely achieve the success 4
Which honesty and courage de
serve.
PoPULIsM is simply destruc-
ion. In accord with the radical !,
egrarianism upon which it is y
sounded, the States which have I
lad Populist Governors in the =
West have paid a fearful penalty Il

political craze. Kansas, Colorado y
endOregon have notonly brought =
'eproach upon themselves under "
rule Of Governors Pennoyer, :.
and Waite; but both ?;
Kansas and Colorado have driven II
from the State and ut y
aerly destroyed the credit of L
