the carolina watchman salisbury n c august 24 1882 vol siii ixiirb series eo 45 plati omr we congratulate the people of north car | olinaon the era of peace prosperity and good government which has beenun broken since the incoming of a democratic state adminis • nation upon the pure and impartial admin , ihtration of justice and the hobest efiforce i nient of the laws ; upon the efficiency of our common school system and great advance mad in education and the general im ! provement and enterprise manifested in ev ery part of the state and we pledge our selves to exert all efforts to advance the material interests of all sections of the state in the future as we have done in the past and we challenge a comparison between a i democratic administration of our state af j fairs and the crimes outrages and scandals : that accompanied republican misrule af firming our adherence to democratic prin ciples as defined in the platform adopted by the national democratic convention held at cincinnati in 18s0 : ilcaolved that we regard a free and fair expression ol the public will at the ballot box us the only sure nieans of preserving our free american institutions and we de nounce the republican party and the inter ference of its federal offi ials for their gross i frauds upon the elective franchise whereby ; whole districts states and the union have been deprived of their just political rights and we believe the corrupt and corrupting use of federal patronage and ot public money drawn by taxati n from lhe people in influencing and control iiny ekttioits to be dangerous to the liberties o flu stale and the union llen'ilccij that we are in favor of the en tire'abolition of the internal revenue sys tem with its attendant corruptions and that we denounce the present t a riff liiws as grossly unequal unjust and vicious we favor such a revision of the taiili as will | produce a revenue sufficient for tbeccononi i ical support of the government with sue i incidental protection as will uivc to domes tic manufactures a fair competition with those of foreign production that there j should be an immediate repeal of all laws ; imposing a direct tax for the support ot j the government of the united states l>ut if j it should prove impracticable to abolish 1 t!i internal revenue system with a!i ii at tending demoralization fraud and corrup tion then we urge upon our senators and i spresentatives in congress the importance of so amending the law that the revenue officers whonow receive in salaries in north carolina alone more than 00 000 shall be elected by the people of the localities to which they arc assigned resohed that t he course tif the dcmo i p.ratic party since its accession to power in north carolina in furtherance of popular education is a sufficient guaranty that we | earnestly favor the education of all classes i of our people and that we will advocate any i legislation looking'to an increase of the fund j for that purpose that will not materially i ini lease the present burdens ot our people resohed that the question of prohibi tion is not now and never has been a par ty question in north carolina and never been endorsed by the democratic party and the people of the state at the general election in the year 18s1 having by an overwhelming majority voted against pro j hibition and the supreme court having j decided that the prohibition act is not and i never has been n law \\«- regard the matter ! as finally settled and any attempt to re i new the agitation is merely a weak effort of designing persons to divert the minds of the people from the dangerous principles and corrupt practices of the republican party retolxed that while we are not wedded to any particular form of county govern ment we recognize the fact that a large part of the taxes of the state are paid for the common benefit by tho white people of our eastern counties and that we consider it the bounden duty of t lie white men of the state to protect these people from the oppressive domination of ignorant blacks and pledge ourselves to such legislature as will secure this end the carolina watchman established is the year 1832 pen e r..:-"in

was two weeks ago county government we expressed our views on this question some weeks before meeting of our state convention we did so after ascertaining the wide spread and growing discontent among democratic voters both east and west that the convention should be prop erly informed and able to act advisedly and prudently in the premises it did so act and we have been content to stand on the platform it adopted the party is wedded to no particular system and can didates or voters are at liberty to take po sition for or against the present system keeping in mind the conventional guaran tee that the tax payers in the east shall have adequate protection from negro rulers and white thieves who are ever ready to dive into their county treasury on this platform we can stand and contend for democratic success without provoking 1 or hastily accepting a fuss in the family western carolinian growing discontent every day brings more evidence of the disgust und growing discontent of the true

the tux on foreign socks knit goods c from 55 per cent to 89 per cent to illustrate what that means in plain terms if we buy english socks at liverpool for twenty-five cents a pair under the law as it stood we had to pay thirteen and three-fourth cents tax at the custom house before we could land them the republicans say that is not enough tax and so they have passed a law raising the duty tax to twenty-two and one-fourth cents that is what they call gising relief to the people against high taxation — western carolinian must vote republican ticket to be fully convinced that the republican
