SENATOR PRlTCHARD TAKES tt
THE WOODS.

Senator Pritchard wires to the Morn
ing Post (organ of the Southern Railway
and Eastern organ of the Revenue
Doodles) that he will make no reply to
Senator Simmons's statement"
The truth is that Senator Pritchard is
between the devil and the deep blue
sea- and is IN a position like the old
negro who said: lone road leads to hell
and the other to damnation." Between
the two he takes to the woods" Here
are his two alternatives:
1. If he says that he and his party ac-
cept the amendment restricting negro suf-
frage, he will offend Hanna and will get
no campaign funds. Inasmuch as Doodle
is very dear to the heart of the Repub-
lican managers, he will not do anything
to give offence in those Northern States
here the negro holds the balance of
power.
2. If he declines to say that his party
will accept the amendment his attempt
will be futile to decoy Democrats into
voting Independently on the ground
that the negro vote has been eliminated
and there is no danger of disturbing the
amendment.
In his dilemma there is nothing for
Senator Pritchard to do, while riding in
opposite directions, except to evade.
If he could rise above petty politics and
Democratic sentiment of the State he
would say without equivocation: I'VE
accept the amendment and will not try
to disturb it, Or. if he was not willing
to do that he could appeal to another
class and say: 1--WE will destroy tho
amendment IL we can If he were to
take either position, he would have the
support of one class. BY a straddling
evasive policy he will not have the
support of anybody in North Carolina ex-
cept the negroes, the messy backs"
the pie-eaters and the pie-hunters.
The people respect a man who declares
his position and maintains it, even if
they do not agree with him, but they
have no admiration for a leader who is
afraid to say where he stands upon a
matter of great public interest.
Mr.. Pritchard and his party cannot get
the votes of many intelligent North
Carolinians if they try to run with the
hare and hold with the hounds.

SHOULD DOWN HIM.

Wadesbor Messenger and Intelligencer.
The fact that Senator Pritchard has
succeeded in getting bill through Con-
gress providing for making eligible to
the pension list soldiers who deserted
from the Confederate army and Joined
the Union forces, should damn him in
the estimation of every true Southern
white man. In every age and country
the deserter has received the just con-
tempt of all men. So heinous has the
crime always been considered that the
punishment of death has been universal
ly pronounced against the culprit when
apprehended. In having a law passed
rewarding persons who have been guilty
of this, the greatest of all crimes, Sena-
tor Pritchard has insulted every soldier
who worthily wore the gray, and every
woman who toiled through four long
years of extraordinary privation for the
cause she loved.

RICHLY DESERVES PUNISHMENT.

The Record feels deep sympathy for
the wife, the parents and the aged grand
father of Roscoe Murrow, whose pardon
is sought from the Governor, yet fair
jury, after one of the fairest trials ever
held iE the county, said the defendant
was guilty of a most wretched crime and
Why he should be pardoned we are TN
able to see. 1t is the opinion of many
VINO heard the trial that the defendant
contributed greatly to his own conEic-
ton and that he was guilty beyond
doubt. If there is newly discovered evil
dence or other facts of which we are
net informed. it may be different, but
with the record established in court it
does seem the Governor should not in
terfere. We talk about lynchings, when
as a matter of fact the laws delay and
other things of a like nature are partly
responsible. Such ought not to be the
case, yet these things set the populace
by the ears and the most overt acts re-
suit.

NOT ENOUGH TRAITORS TO DO
ANYTHING.

Wadesboro Messenger and Intelligenccr.
1t is perfectly apparent that it will be
the policy of the Republican paraty to
subordinate every other interest to the
election of a majority of the members Of
the next Legislature, to the end that
Pritchard may be his own successor. 1t
also seems to be certain that a number
of persons and papers, of more or less
prominence who have heretofore affiliat-
ed with the Democratic party, will give
what aid they can to his scheme. These
papers and persons, of course, expect
pay for their services, and. indeed, some
of them have already received the price
of their treachery. But it is consola-
tion to believe that there are not enough
traitors in the State, even If the pie
should hold out, to make it possible for
these conspirators to capture the State.
