extracts from Mr. Gold's piece
on our page. Be sure and
read it. It is the expression of a
man is not a politician, and
yet of one who has the interest of
good government at heart
It is wonderful how consistent
some Republican speakers are. Mr.
Bernard argued here two weeks
ago to the that they were
not indebted to the Democrats for
their educational advantages, and
that en the contrary they were
not getting what they ought to
get, because they paid a large part
of the tax. To show them this he
stated that a considerable
of the school tax came from the
money paid for license to sell
liquor, and that they drank more
liquor than the white people there-
fore paid more tax. He said that
every time they took a drink, even
a that they were paying a
part of this tax- That is, the con-
pays the tax. He must have
forgotten that ho and his co-la
borers argue that the
pays the tax and not the con-
sumer. They will forget some
times and tell the truth. The
know that ail the tax on the
goods by them is paid by

C. M- Bernard. OH of the
white Republicans who is en-
to get the to
vote tho ticket and help
break up tho Democratic party in
this county, stood in tho
House in and tried to
inflame the by telling
them the Democratic party had
taxed them to pension
ate soldiers ; that Pitt was
taxed a for
purpose, and every time the
Sheriff came around for poll tax
he made the last one of them dive
down in his pocket and pay f
cents take care of tho men who
fought and tried to
keep them in slavery. And how
tho did cheer him Isn't
it astonishing that a Southern
born white man could stoop so
low as to utter such words He
ought to be ashamed to look a
Confederate soldier in the face.
Will any of them help the

Third party ticket t We hope
will do so t
to Mr. W. B. Phipps, of
Chicago, for several copies of
Herald of that city which he has
sent us at intervals during the
campaign. The Herald is the
finest specimen of daily journal-
ism in America and is a perfect
newspaper in respect.
While in Chicago the past sum-
mer it was our pleasure to spend
part of an evening in the Herald's
handsome building, and were de-
lighted with what saw there;
everything from the press room
which contained tan modern per-
presses throughout the en-
tire building working with a
that was almost marvelous.
The editor Mr. J. W. Scott, had
then just returned from a
tour, and showed us into his
private editorial rooms which
were decorated with magnificent
floral offerings from the printers
in honor of his return. At his
desk ho is not only in direct com-
with every department
of the immense building, but has
the whole world at his elbow.
With a man of such brain and
energy as editor Scott to preside
over and direct the destinies of
the Herald, it is no wonder it has
become such a great paper. We
will add also that no paper in- the
Union is doing better work in this
for the Democracy than
tho Chicago Herald.
We went over to Parkers X
Roads for an hour Saturday to see
how the old soldiers were getting
along in their reunion- As
beheld them there, some with one
leg, some with one arm, some
maimed one way or it
made a feeling of shame come over
us to think that there lived a white
man in Pitt county who would
raise his voice against the Demo
party in North Carolina
try to inflame tho prejudice
of the against the white
because that party had
levied a tax o cents on each poll
and cents on each prop-
valuation for tho maintenance
of these crippled soldiers and to
keep some of them out of the poor
house. In Pitt county with a pop
of this tax reaches
tho fabulous sum of
Would to God that North Carolina
could give her maimed soldiers
and their widows ton times the
pittance they now get under this
tax, and that Pitt county was able
to make her proportion in-
stead of what she now pays.
No right thinking man can object
to the payment of a just pension
to any soldier, and there is no
complaint in the South at paying
a deserved pension to any Federal
soldier, but the fraud and
that is practiced under the
Federal system clearly shows the
abuse it is being put to and gives
just grounds for complaint.
tho fact is considered that here
years after the war has ended
there are more people drawing
pensions on a claim of wounds re-
in battle than out of
the army bearing even tho slight
est scratch, and that the number
grows larger every year, it is time
a reformation in this direction was
brought about. Every
wounded soldier is entitled to a
pension, but none but this class
should receive it.
The Republican bosses in
charge of the postal are
using tho mails in the interest of
the Republican party. Democrat-
literature, papers and in
several instances have failed to
roach the parties to which they are
addressed. Chairman Simmons of
tho State Democratic Executive
Committee recently mailed a letter
to every county chairman in tho
Stale, fifteen of which instead of
going to tho parties addressed
found their way into tho hands of
tho chairman of tho State
Executive Committee. Sec-
of the State Dem-
Clubs, also says his mail
has been tampered with, and these
are but a few of the many
The last issue of
of New York, a journal that has

fully treated by the heads of tho
postal service so far as to be re-
fused admission into tho mails at
second-class rates in the face of
opinions from the best authority
in the country that it was entitled
to be so admitted, shows how the
service is in every
way possible against the Demo-
party and in favor of the
Republicans. Such literature as
the Republicans wish to send out
for campaign is smuggled
through th mails without the pay-
of proper postage thereon,
and in this manner they save to
their campaign a
week and swindle the government
out of just that amount. When
the Democratic committees send
out any literature they pay every
cont of postage that can be de
The indications are that
the Republicans look upon the
government as belonging to them
and they intend to run it to suit
themselves. The people
speak their disapproval of
corrupt methods and practices by

Cleveland.

any man pretending to be a great
speaker. In referring to the four
parties who had candidates in the
field ho said the Prohibitionists
were so few and far between that a
lantern and search warrant could
not find them. He knew nothing
of the Third party as it had never
done anything but make promises.

them on wanting the government

Death of Mrs. W. B. Wilson.
Rarely, if ever, has it been our lot to
chronicle an event which cast as dark a
shadow over the entire town and com-
as the subject of the present
sketch. Three weeks ago there was
a happier home to be found than that of
Mr. W. B. to-day there is not a
sadder one. Not only is this home sad
but the whole town feels the gloom. No
one saw anything but the promise of a
long. and happy life for Mrs.
Wilson. Now she been taken from
earth, and an almost innumerable
of friends with a large circle of
have been behind.
Death loves a shining mark and it en-
this home on last Thursday at a
little past o'clock and took from
husband and children their most idolized
wife and mother. These afflictions arc
sad at any time and under any
stances, but in this ease the mystery of
God's wisdom seems more than ever
inscrutable. No place had a better
man than Mrs. Wilson. No one seemed
to have more to live for. No one seemed
to be more needed here than she.
yet she has been removed from time and
its cares and troubles to the realms of
bliss. God knows best. God does best.
We must be reconciled to His will.
Mrs. Wilson had been married nine
years. Never was there a more devoted
and affectionate wife. Never was there
a more cheerful and loving mother. Her
of character were
above the average human being. She
was intelligent, cultivated, and refined.
Every one who came hi contact with her
felt the impress of her noble character.
She was generous, cheerful and social to
a fault. was the life of all com-
and the one loved by all neigh-
But above and superior to all these
possessions was her lovely Christian
character. Her walk, her conversation,
her consecration have left an impress
upon her associates which eternity alone
reveal. No one met her but to be
better. No one left her but to be hap-
pier. She was a devoted member of the
Methodist church, and her life was
and fashioned by the gentle and
lovely walk of her risen Savior while He
was on earth. Mrs. Wilson, in person,
will lie with u- no more on earth, hut her
memory will remain, and her life work
will be verdant as long as there dis-
tress to relieve, comfort to be given or a
soul to be saved. Sometimes we are left
as to the home of a sou when
it has left this earth, but then is a home
prepared for the souls of the faithful and
to that blissful land angels bore the -spirit
of this devoted woman of than to
dwell through the circles of eternity in
companionship the spirits of the just
made perfect, and the tender, loving
Savior whom she served so faithfully
while she was on this earth.
lire. Wilson leaves a husband and six
boys to mourn her Her
companionship was their life and no
power can heal save that which saved
her. To her must ever be
sweet, with the blessed consolation that
bye and bye, up yonder, they may meet
where there will be no more death, no
more parting, no more sorrowing. For
the noble and idolizing, but new sad
heart broken husband, for the bright,
loving little boys, for the devoted father
and the affectionate sisters the
of the entire community are enlisted
and many be the prayers He
who knows and feels our sorrow- may
their wounds and give them the
sweet consolation that their loss is her
eternal gain.
The remains of Mrs. Wilson were laid
at rest ill Cherry Hill Cemetery Friday
afternoon, services being conducted in
the Methodist church by BeG. F. Smith
and at the grave by Rev. R. F. Taylor.
The pall bearers were Messrs. J. S. Smith,

and in his arraignment of the Republican
party for their evil and vicious
he acted the partisan, or was
woefully wanting in information, when
denouncing the Democratic party for an
impossibility and refusing to give credit
due- He charged Cleveland and his
party with favoring the banking
system and opposed to the. free

both Houses in the Congress and
done nothing. On being reminded that
a free coinage bill passed both Houses
and was vetoed by President Hayes, and
that the bill was passed over the
dent's veto, lie denied it being so. He
was asked how was Weaver on the. nation-

he did not know; but recovering said lie
was against it. On being told that lie
