WHY MARTIN DID NOT VOTE IN
THE LATE ELECTION.
ecwadesboro Messenger and Interligencer)


1t is, perhaps, not generally known that
the Rev. Chas. Henry Martin, who now
resides in the city of Washington and
who draws, directly and indirectly, over
$4,000 from the United States treasury
for doing nothing, did not vote at all in
the last election. That he failed to cast
his ballot will probably not he disputed
by either Mr.. Martin or his friends, but
the reason for his not doing so, which is
given in the article upon information
and belief, as the lawyers say, may pos
sible not go unchallenged. We have it
upon excellent authority that the real rea-
son-not the ostensible reason. mind you
why this distinguished moral and poll
teal reformer lodged the ballot box upon
the occasion referred to above, was be-
cause he did not want to vote for *.

THE ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE
KING HUMBERT.

It is singular that when an attempt,
successful or otherwise, is made on
the life of a sovereign or PRESIDENT
the chosen victim is very apt to be
one of the best of his kind. Alexand-
er II of Russia was not a tyrant as
cars go, while President Carnot of
France was particularly good Off
cial; in the United States, Presidents
Lincoln and Garfield were great and
much beloved, and especially devot-
ed to the interests of the people.
The Sultan Of Turkey, whose acts
have courted assassination above any
other modern European monarch, is
still alive.
The attempt to assassinate King
Humbert of Italy is a case in point.
Humbert is one of the kindest and
most considerate Of living sovereigns.
His country is not prosperous, to be
sure, but it is no fault of the king,
who in many ways has shown his de-
sire to better the conditions of his
people. Humbert is a brave, modest
and humane ruler, and should be free
from the danger of assassination. It
is crafty ing to learn that his deliv-
rance from violent death on this
occasion was hailed with great rejoic
ing by his subjects generally. The
kings cool and courageous conduct
will uuquestionably add to the admir-
alton in which he is held Once be-
fore Humbert's life has been attempt
ed. The would-be assassin was SEN
fenced to death, but the king would
not allow him to be executed and he
was sent to prison for life. The ma n
who tried to kill the king recently ap-
pears to have had no accomplices.-
