Scotland Democrat,
A very intelligent
waiting to the and
gives utterance to a very significant
fact concerning the unity of the Al-
and the Democratic party.
In speaking of the Democratic plat-
form adopted at the last State con-
and the Alliance, he
was no difference then,
and there is no difference now, in
North Carolina, between the Alli-
and the Democratic party.
United then for war, offensive and
defensive, they onward,

next campaign. There is really no
difference the objects and aims of
the Alliance and other Democrats.
They do not all sec the way out of
present difficulties alike, but this is
no good reason for any split in the
party. The demands of the AIM
are the demands of the Demo-
party in a general way. The
plan, or bill, is the
cause of some difference of opinion,
but it should not be the cause of any
serious breach. And we give it as
our opinion now, as we have done
before, that if the split comes be-
tween the Alliance and others of the
Democratic party, it will be the
of extremists on either
Harmony Democrats in-
side and outside the Alliance is the
only thing that can save the country
from the clutches of the Republican
party in the next contest We think
any one will sec this upon cool and
sober reflection.
In the North the old Republican
will whip into line almost
every single man that has ever borne
allegiance to that party. In tho
Wet perhaps a split may have some
advocates from both the. Democrat
and Republican parties. In the
South the will be solidly
Republican, as it has been for twenty
years. This will be the case with
tho vote, now party or no new
party. So then, according to our
opinion, the matter will stand thus
in the event of a new party A dead
sine thing for the Republicans North,
a very strong chance for them with
the solid vote in the South.
Now, to us in the South there is
more concern for our own section
than for any other. want to
maintain while man supremacy here ;
and there is only one way to do it
and that is for the Democratic- party
to shoulder to shoulder in the

in North Carolina. If we do this,

THE SOUTHERN ELECTORAL
VOTE WILL ELECT.
News and Observer.
The Republicans hope to succeed
in electing their candidate for Pres-
next year through tho aid of a
third party in the South. They
know that if such a party de-
strength in North
Carolina, Virginia, Missouri and
Tennessee, to render those Slates
doubtful, it would offset the losses
they anticipate defections in
tho North and West. if the
South should remain solid, as here-
in casting her vote,
every reasonable calculation will
then point to the election of a Demo-
President. The New York
Times has the following to say on the
For is plain that if the Demo-
can count on the electoral
voles of the South, which they ob-

about by a third party in the North
would be more in their favor than

would furnish votes, there arc
States in the West where the Alli-
is known to be strong and
where the Democrats would sure
to gel most aid from a
party, that would make up the
majority needed.
Take, for instance, the electoral
votes of Kan
Michigan. Minnesota,
Wisconsin. Here arc votes in
a half dozen Western States, every
one of which has returned a
of Democratic Congressmen to the
present House of Representatives.
It is reasonably certain that if there
is to lie a ticket in the
field in these Stales, Republicans
will And it harder to recover their
supremacy than Democrats to re-
theirs, and that the
the Democrats for getting their need-
ed votes are much better than the
chances of the Republicans for re-
gaining the all of which they will
need. The facts arc clear enough,
therefore, to make tho development

Keep the home evenings.
Almost invariably lads who have
been allowed to roam free at night
have come to moral shipwreck and a
social destruction. The exceptions
have been where there was a strong

and peculiar social influence. Men

may have been their culture, feel that
there is something different in the
streets at night than that Which is in
the which excites
apprehension, or creates alarm, or

our observations is the clear con
that it is absolutely

the Fall of 1883 to the Spring of
1885. and you gave it your liberal
patronage. one will concede
that Greenville needs a large, first

size, whatever else it may have, is
complete without it. No teacher can
do this alone. The people cannot
unaided accomplish it. But people
and teacher united for this end will
be sure to succeed.
No one will deny but that a large
amount of money is annually spent
in sending boys to distant schools
that might be saved with such a
school among you. I come among
you this time for the purpose of
giving such a school as you and
will take a pride in. It is my desire
