II. A. WILLIAMS, of Granville. RATHER VOTE FOR THE IEVII. Some of the Third partyites exclaim that they would sooner vote for the devil than for Cleveland or Harrison.

Either Cleveland or Harrison will certainly elected to the presidency, and if the latter gets a second term and starts his Force bill to 'work, the South will be something of a Hades and our people will think his Satanic majesty has a hold on tliem sure enough. PROMOTION. His many friends in this State and he is deservedly popular with the people will be glad to learn that Col. A- B. Andrews has been promoted by theKichmond Danville Railroad receivers to the responsible position of their general agent, wih general supervision of all the properties of the system.

Major W. A. Turk, wTho is another officer of the D. highly-esteemed by the citizens of the Old North State, has also been promoted, and is now general passenger agent. WHAT IT MEANS.

rJhe Republican parfy make no secret of its purpose to pass the Force bill. While it is aimed primarily at the South and would do the greatest mischief down here, it would deprive the North and the West of their rights to free elections as well. It is a blow at the republic. How it would operate in the South the New York World says "every man who has even the smallest knowledge of the condis tions knows. It would threaten prosperous States with a rule of corruption and license like that of the carpetsbag era.

It wrould set the two races, now 'friendly, into deadly hate again, It would threaten every specie of property with the destruction of its value. It would undermine industry with -ii 1 lstrnst miri nnno cnaosinio ouss CJ iness. It would check and per haps des'roy that prosperity which men mean when they talk our property will greatly depreciate in value; capital will shun us and our industrial development stop; there will be constant and bloody conflicts between the races. The Republicans will without the shadow of a doubt pass the Force bill if they get the presidency and control of both houses of Congress at the next election. Our white people are confronted with a freat danger.

Their only hope is in voting the Democratic ticket. SILVER 15 1 1. 1. IAJSSEITI1E SENATE. The Stewart Free Silver bill passed the Senate Friday by the following vote: Yeas Allen, Bate, Berry, Blackburn, Blodgett, But ler, Cameron, Cockrell, Dubois, Faulkner, George, Harris, IJilL Jones of Novada.

Kenna, Kyle, Mills, Mitchell, Morgan, Pefter, Ransom, Saunders, Shoup, Squire, Stewart, Teller, Vest and Wolcott; 29. Nays Carey, Carlisle, Cullom, Davis, Dawes, Dixon, Dolph, Felton, (iallinger, Gorman, Gray, Hale, tlawley, McPhorson, Mandorson, Palmer, Perkins, Proctor, Sawyer, Stockbridge, Warren, Washburn and White; 25. Senator Vance was not present. Ho is in bad health and is spending a few weeks at Wrightsville Beach. The bill now goes to the House of Representatives.

THE SI EVER BILL. The to-lowing1 is the texts of the silver bill as it passed Senate. iUitl IUC UHUU1 Ui UU11J.UU may deposit the same at any mint of the United States to be coined for his benefit, and it shall be the duty of the proper officers, upon the terms and conditions which are provided by law for the deposit and coinage of gold, to coin such bu llion into the standard dollars authorized by the act of Feb. 28, 1878, entitled 'An act to authorize the coinage of the standard silver dollars and to restore itslegal tender and such coins shall be a legal tender for all debts and dues, public and private. The act of July 14,1890, entitled 'An act directing the purchase of silver bullion and the issue of Treasury notes thereon, and for other is hereby repealed: "Pros vided, that the Secretary of the Treasury shall proceed to have coined all the silver bullion in the freasury purchased with silver certificates." Repudiation of the Third party by prominent farmers of North Carolina goes bravely on.

The thinking men know that this is no time for division in the ranks of the Southern whites. A vote for the Third party is a vote to continue high tariff, to multiply crusts, to help "the passage of the Force bill and to keep the Repub lican party in powrer for an indefinite period. We must stand to gether or together fall. It was reported and printed in most of the newspapers of North Carolina that Senator Mat Ran som said at Chicago, when the struggle for the nomination was in progress, that Cleveland could not carry this State. The Senator says that what he really did say was "Cleveland can carry North Carolina, but we must have a man who can carry New York." It is the custom for the newspapers, as well as the postofiice and banks, to take a day off on the gloi icfus Fourth of July.
