OX THE EVE. i Our Stale Duiiivcralie Convention i meets on the 4th of August nest. ( and it is now lime for us all to orgamze and to prepare for the cam ( paigD. It is true that the fanning < outlook is so "blue" that politics oc < cupy but a email part of t lie tuotigDis j of our people; but a healthy, honest j government is as necessary and essential to the general welfare of oni people us the goo:! lvsulis of fruitful ?^ fields arc. We should not be blind io these fads, a.id we should see to It that no laggard spirit conies over us. Outside of the great crop failures, the State is on the high road to prosperity, and we can only push her forward bv having competent, capable snd efficient puD'ic servanis. To do this wo cannot bo indifferent: and supiueness upon our part wili only cause further stagnation and depression. Let us, therefore, go ahead and with a determination to place our best men in office. We favor no slate me,do up only to togtatifyor please those who aspire, but rneiit, worth, service and devotion to country, are the esssntials and these elements must constitute and make up the men whom wc are to reward. Let us thon turn out and do oar duty. A little diversion from grass and drowned crops will be of incalculable benefit An attempt by the politicians anc "wire-pullers" to force the Democracy of Oconeo to submit to tbeii chicanery and corrupt tricks caused a split in ihc Democracy of that county at tho recent county convention. However, an amicable adjustment has been arrived at, and all is going on smoothly again. If there is any trouble in t'-o Democratic camp this year :t will certainly be caused by the office seekers in fl.oir endeavor ^^^to^bulldoze the party into unfair measures. No good and true citizen is afraid to risk his chances to a fair race before the Democracy. T> ? ? J 4 ? ? ,>nrl Pnniifl! JtUliU.'cUVU uuu VU^ihuk Tho estimated true valuation o) property in the United States ir 1850 was $7.1*15,7-30.2:18. or $308. per capita, in 18C0 the estimated value was $16,159,016.0G8, whicl was S514 per capita. The value ii 1870 was' estimated at ?80,068,518. 517 or $780, per capita. The increase of wealth per capita in ten years, from 1850 to 1SC0, was G7 pei cent, or 9 7-lOths per cent per miThe next tea years tho inwas 52 per cent*, or 5 1-5 pei per annum. The r-cxi tet I Kirs (ending in joo vj ;ii? j,n icusi Wcls 10 1-6 per cent, or about 1 pe? Knt per annual per capita. Jd csl> jraiing the increase of weuitli ii decade f cm !b39 io 18S0 with ?m regard to populaMor. we fiud the Brease in the tirst decade 115 pei jjSnl or 1 i 1 -5 per cent per annum. Pfthe second decade 86 per cent o) 8 3-5 per cent per annum; in the de?;ade ending in 1SS0, 45 per cent, oi 4 1-2 per cent put annum. From these statistics we learn that the increase of wealth in the United States, whether regarded as a whole, or per capita, has greatly diminished since 1850, and that in J J. it !. i V every aecaue lueru la greater uiuiinution, and in the last decadelhe in " creaso in wealth per capita was reduced to 1 per cent?as a whole to _ 4 V per cent-. Thus it appears that the accumulation of wealth in the " hands of a few has a tendency to V diminish rather than to increase the production of wealth and general r prosperity of tho country. When j wealth increased roost rapidly, milL lionaires were scarce. Now that . millionaires are numerous and their accumulations have reached into tens' and hundreds of millions general prosperity diminishes, therefore whilst the concentration of capital impoverishes the many and fails to produce general prosperity, or in crease tbe production o? wealth, it has a tendency to deprive labor of an equitable share of its own products. { By a combination of capital tho varied indstries of our cunt rv are monopolized and the profits thereof appropriated by corporation?. $3,394,340, 029 arc invested in manufactures, the greater part of which is controlled by corporations. The value of the product c-l these manufactures is $5,39G.CG7,70G. After deducting wages paid,, material used, and interest on capital we find a ballance of net earnings amounting to $832,- i 092,858, a sum equal to 15 per cent on the investment. In railroads 1 (nearly all of which is monopolized , by corporations) $57,495,471,311 are , invested. The stuck of these roads < koc, incrPBcp.,! liv \Y?itfrir>cr < una R until the apparent average cost of ! these roads per mile has reached the , sum of ?55,461, and the net earnings on this inflated stock is about 5 per cent; but the actual cost of railroads would, perhaps, not exceed nne-third of the inflated stock; there fore 15 per cent would be nearer the actual profit realized upon i ailroad investments. Banks realize about 10 per cent on their investment. How can other occupations or employments agricultural or me- l rcbanical, realize any profits when 1 the average per cent or increase of wealth is 4J per cent- and trans porfcation and manufacturers realize I 15 per cent of one-fifth on the value of the entire property of the United Slates, or more than three times 1 (their equitable share of average per a centage of profits. The excess of jo their net earnings, above an average, | s $753,639,762 and this sum is unustlv taken from labor and given to :apitnl. jjftbor produces all tbe material wealth of the country, and ;apital absorbs it as fast as it is proluced, only leaving a bare subsistence to the laborer instead of an ?qual division of the profits produced by the combination of capital and labor. Our Legislative hulls are thronged with lobbyists, (comprising tbe best talent of the country) employed by corporal ions to secure legislation that will enable thorn to monopolize the varied industries of the country. Our legislatures are composed of selected men for personal popularity rather than capacity or titness for the oflice, and fall an easy prev to the skilled agents of these corpora- { lions, and then we tro from bad to j worse untii the limit of human en 1 durance is reached, then will follow anarelsv, civil war and despotism in the form or name of a strange government.

In the local option election hold n >~orth Carolina last week, Raleigh, Oxford, Kinston, Henderson, Warrenio\ Lonisburg Salem, Apex, Beaufort Township, and Seahoard were carried for prohibition, and Charlotte, Durham, Franklin, Reidville, Holiy Springs, Goldsboro and Littleton went against prohibition.
