Those North Carolinians who
separated themselves from the
Democratic party last year in
The hope of getting something
better in legislation than they
have heretofore enjoyed, have
Sc IN their hopes disappointed.
The Legislature, which has just
adjourned, did not fulfill one
promise in forty, and no honest
man can claim that it met the
just expectations of those who
elected it. Beyond continuing
the appropriations heretofore
made by the Democratic party
for the public institutions, it did
nothing that will rebound to the
general welfare, and many of
its enactments are positively
harmful, as time will develops
Many Of the incidents attending
its proceedings were openly and
notoriously scandalous.
1t must be manifest to every
intelligent citizen, in view of
everything that has happened
at Raleigh since the lst of Jan
uary, and in considering the
many things that have not, that
nothing is to be expected in fu-
ture of the combination which
constitute this Legislature. II
is a bad lot. Il not only failed
to do nearly everything it prom
ised to do, but by what it did il
demonstrated that it is not fit to
govern North Carolina. The
universal ery throughout the
State should be, Away with 1t!
Away with it! Ifa man or par.
ty fool you once it is his or its
fault; if he or it fool YOU twice,
it is yours. Surely no stronger
argument could be presented To
the people of this State to per.
suade them to turn again to the
party which governed SO long
and so well, than is offered by q
review of the proceedings of the
Legislature Just adjourned.

The Democratic party in North
Carolina suffered in the last elec.
ton from two potent disintegrat-
ing influences, to-wit: Cd internal
dissensions and (2) the lack Of .
contrast. In fact, the latter large
" accounts for the former and al
most Of itself sufficiently accounts
for defeat.
The days Of '6s.7O'76 were a
long ways behind. Anunbroken
series Of victori for eighteen
years lay behind the Democratic
party. To thousands Of its Older
followers Republican domination
was a memory and to hosts Of its
younger members only hearsay.
A feeling Of security discounted
danger, and in an hour Of pre-
sumption bitter factions arose and
grew more and more bitter. The
time had come for the party's de
feat and il was defeated.
But there need be no dissensions
next year. Those who wanted TO
see Ransom beaten. saw him 60
down with the rest Of US Those
who wanted 10 see Jarvis beaten,
ii it wrecked the whole State,
ought TO be satisfied with the re
suits. The way rs open now for
al Democrats to get together. New
men. qnencumbered by bitter fac
tional affiliations should be sought
out and will be sought out as
standard-bcarers. As for the con-
trast. the State got it in the last
Legislature, and the people will
get il from now on. The contrast
will be Emphasized every court
week in nearly every county in
the State until next election, T.
say nothing Of what may be ex
pected in some Of the magistrates
courts. AThe contrast is here. Tn,
State already has a bad taste in
its mouth and will spit il outnexi

Washington Letter.

thor of the Monroe doctrine.
What is called the "Holly Al
lance" Of Europe, formed os-
tensibly in the interest of re-
Iligion, was really an alliance on
the part Of the great powers of
Europe to hold their American
possessions against the growing
power Of the young republic
known as the United States.
James Monroe was president.
Thomas jefferson had gone to
Monticello, his country seat, to
enjoy the honors of a well-spent
life. Monroe wrote for his
opinion. He gave it. 1t was
to let European matters alone,
but when they sought territory
in America, to pursue a vigor
GUS policy Of self protection.
The reasons are plain to anyone
familiar with the geography of
this country. England could
land her forces in Canada or
South America. Spain in Cuba
or SouthAmerica without Moles
tation. Cuba is an important
point. Thomas Jefferson said
the United States ought to own
Cuba. Cuba is in revolt today
The state department has been
recently advised that three ship
ments Of arms have been made
within the past few weeks from
the United States to the insur.
gents in Cuba. In one case the
arms were sent from Philadel.
phia to Savannah. They were
transferred at that point to q
small fishing smack Of ten or
fifteen tons burden and carried
20 the east coast of Cuba, to the
Province of Santiago de Cuba,
which is the hotbed of the revo-
luton.
These fishing vessels are SO
small that they can hover about
the shore until the coast is clear,
and then make a landing at any
one of a score Of safe points.
The administration, it is said, is
doing all in itspower to prevent
the shipment of these contra
bands of war, but it is claimed,
they are being made constantly.
The appointment of Gen. Mar
tinos Campos, the commander
in.chief of the Spanish army in
Cuba, is regarded here as mean
ing q vigorous prosecution OF
the rebellion from this time.
Campos is stern old veteran of
many wars, and will use the
most repressive measures in or
der to check the growing tide Of
insurrection.
But Spain is torn with inter-
necine troubles. Now is the
time for Cuba to be free and to
annex herself to the United
States, Hon. VIM. q. Whitney,
one of the foremost democr Its
in this country, has announced
himself as unreserxedly in favor
Of an aggressive foreign policy.
Europe has no business with one
square inch Of American terri
tory. Spain has removed the
naval officer who ordered the
Allianca to be fired on, but th 8
is q ruse, for Spain cam,
afford to antagonize the U. s..
now. II is as much as she can
do to take care Of Cuba and her
internal dissensions.
Something important is on
foot. Senator Ransom, Hon.
John s. Henderson, IT. Black
nall, Josephus Danie's and sew.
eral others are here.

The Farmers sold Out.

This is another one of the per-
nicious acts of the ignoramuses
who were recently in session in
Raleigh, says the Cleveland
Star. This was one of the bills
that was rushed through and
only let the Democrats hear it
read by its title. They cannot
deny it. They will either have
to confess that they have to
confess that they are woefully
ignorant, or else they have sold
the farmers of the State out to
tie money kings. In either
case they deserve to have sad
died upon them the righteous
wrath and indignation of an
outraged people. They were
either bought, or they did il
through ignorence. Neither plea
will excuse them. IL is thought
that an extra session of the
Legislature will have to be call
ed to repeal this permicious act,
if the Supreme Court should de-
eide that it means what it says.
