W e are midway between the elec tions of 1898 and of 1900; W e are iiir enough i^m ored from the ex citement of both struggles to look backward and to look forward calm ly and dispassionately. Next year North Carolina will be forced to face the gravest situation which has conflfonted her since 18«>0. Tlieii thie qu^tion -was,- -will the State seceile from the. Union t Now the question is.- will the State.viori late the fundamental"eondttion on 'Vhfch she wjw rradm itted into the UtjiODj. ami th i democratic voters will have to decide whether, they will break the ^lem n promise which their chairm an and official head mRde-in their name to the p»>ple of the State before the last eilection. T he good • & ith of. a sovereign state and the anc.ient honor of a gi-rat party cannot be treated or disposed of lightly; they denjand thougtitfnl, anxious and reverent consideration.. In aStiS the people of North Car olina adopted a constilTition estab lishing universal 8uffra,^e, and in Jtm e of that year the State was re adm itted into the Union subject to the fundamental condition ihat her constitution should never !)e chang ed so as to deprive any citizen or cla.ss of citizei!.s of the right to.vote -•onferred by that constitation. That fund.ariieutal condition is -Still in force aud will continue in force unlil the State attem pts to brefik it.

Theselearned gentlemen will hard ly pronounce the act of congress nn- c justitntional beeauEe the validity of the Reconstniciion Acts has been sdjudicated by the supreme court o: the United States, the final ar- !-iter. the tribunal of last i-esr.rt, and the groat. Jmitce Cnoley in co n- nienlii'f; upon this exercisa of feJ- er;!l po«er, Cons.*Lim., page ill n, feeliii.i^ly obssrves: ‘'It suRK.-es for the prescuf to say that con;-'ressclaimed, insisted upon aud enforced the right to prescribe the steps to be taken and the con ditions to be observed in order to restore these states to their former pusitions in Ihe Union.” A nd be expresses the “ Hope and trustthat the occasion for discussing such questions may never arise again.” In September, 1898, M r. K. M. Simmons, chairm an of the state democratic committee, issued to the ^ o p le of thestate an address which was both a proinife at;d a protest, in which he uses these words: “ For the p ^ twenty years or more, ju st before every election, the Republican speakers, at their m idnight meetings, have been in the habit of telling the negro if the democrats came into power their right to vote would te taken aw ay from them. “ First, they told them ifthe dem ocrats got the state government they would disfranchise them . The dem ocrats got the state government and did not disfranehise them . Then- they told them' if the democrats elected a president they would dis franchise them. The" de.fflocrat8 elected a-president and did-not dis franchise theiii. H itn they told them th at if .the democrats got 'coii- trol oCcongress they would disfran chise the-n. The democrats got control of c o n g s^ and d id n o t dir- francJiise them . A ll idong thehou:. est white meh of th e state ^^ghed at t h ^ li« , aud m a rv e le i^ a t the n ^ ro did not have enough to s ^ that he was diii)edf “Finally the negro himself ^ g a n to see through the tricik^ i5e Lad seen the dn-uoCrsits iu full power in the state for tw enty 4 avo years, and had ieim ed through e.xperienc tiiat thiit party did iit^! prpp»^ to disfranchise him, .and he, too, be gan to langh at these liars, and linsU;/refu.se.1 to be frightened by their "rot an.v longer. So the old li--r;-'til)li«vn scare crow had- to be hauled down and put away. * * * I -‘‘They know that the democratic party lias always stood for man- ' hooii anll'rage; and they know that I t!i€ c!emocrati<! party ■will never, : umiei- auV circumstances under the , Rji a. c . -'seot to the.passage of any U;!-- -.'.-r; o> viU take from , them, 'li-lwevei. ;.o','-au‘l ignorant they i niay be.-tie right'to vote, oi! which’ will in any way diminish or lessen that g reat-p riv ily ," This promise was so circumstan tial, so earnest, so indignant, so plausible, and so fortified by polit ical history that.it a<most compell ed belief; it silenced the warnings of intelligent republicans and al layed the suspicions of the timid and ignorant and gained votes by the thousands for the democrats, who actually (arried J^he Black District and carried the eonnty of Halifax by 1,500 majority. And yet with that promise fresh on his lips without explanation and without apology, Mr. Simmons him self inaugui-ates and leads the move ment to disfranchise the men he had promised to defend, to sacri fice the victims whom his promise had deluded, to betray the confi dence which had gained for him the victory. It should be borne in mind th at the A ct of the Assembly in 1874 (ailing the Constitutional Conven tion requited every delegate to that convention to take an oath that they “ shall not require or propose any educational qualification for of fice or for voting.’^. The prop >rtion both of negroes and of illiterates in the State at that time was much greater than it is now. W hat would be said of the delegates to that convention if they had violated the oath and proceeded to pa&sthe “ grandfather clause” and to extol Ihe hereditary instinct of the white man in loca ting his vote as proven by the he reditary instinct of the setter dog in his God-given faculty of loc-ating the quail ? The only difference between the former case and the present is that there the memlKjrs took theouth individually and here Mr. Sim mons, chairma/n, makes ttie pledge for his party; the sanction and binding force upon the honor aud the consoieqee is the same. Our araizement at the cnurae oi’ M r. Simmons is in.^reased by the following from the W ashington Post of last winter: “ It was leiirned yesterday that the action of the North Oirolina legislature in regard to a c>jiis(i!ii- tional provision f.jrthe lestriotion of suffrage was largely based upon a visit made to this city by several leading North Carolina democrats. Auiong others to whom the delega- tioi talkeil was Senator Caffery, of lKjiiisiMu:i, and tiie vOi'isiaha plan has been accepted by the North Carolinians. It provides that a voter whose father and grandfather voted in any state prior to January 1, 18C7, shall be exempt from the property aud educational qualiflca- tions prescribed in the other arti cles of the state constitution. ‘ This means, of course, that it disfranchise-s the negro. “ A t the same time. Sen. Caffery, as he said yesterday, was very irauk- to inform the delegation that he did not regard the provision as coustitution-al; - ‘It creates a privi leged class,’ he said, ‘and I sold the people of my state that it would not stand a test when they adopted it. If the-legislature of North Car olina has accepted the same provis ion, I believe that they will find their work undone for them assoon as the m atter is brought before the United States supreme court.’ ” Notwithstanding this advice of Senator Cafiery, in w'hich his col- le;ig;;e, Senator McEijeryyfdfmertjk chief ju-xtice of Louisi:ina, fully concurs, ami in which the Post says every “jurisconsult” in the land concurs, most of the learned gentle men in North Carolina who have favored the public with their views in advocacy of theamelx^ment stait out by “ assuming” th ^ ^ is titu - tionality of the m easu re.^ i^ the light of the decisions of oi preme court reviewing th^-'^^o. ^ acts of the present legiB’^^iire th i-mpartial layman wouf^,. e justified in assuming quite4";'.--^reverse lie- cause the court hi&tseen overruling these acts in almost, every instance. It is amaziug that the learned the helplessness of the promise and his inabili^ to enforce performance does not increase rather than di minish the sanction of the promise. These illiterate whites before risk ing their salvation to M r Simmons will be mov'ed further to inquire at what particular point in his lively career did M r. Simmons evince his special regard for the rights of the “ poqj: and ignorant” white man. If they go back to 1886 they will find that Mr. Simmons disfranchised some two thousand voters in Vance and W arren coun ties, not so much on the ground of color as because they had voted against Mr. Simmons for congress. And it they go back to 1892 they will find that Mr. Simmons, opera ting under the decision of H arris vs. Scarboro, disfranchised 49,000 ■'oters not on account of color but because their names were not w it- ten in the registration books with sufficient fnllness and parHonlarity to suit the refined, critical and ex acting taste of Mr. Simmons. And they will find that the Fed eral House of Representatives con taining a hundred majority of dem ocrats overruled Mr. Simmons’ scheme of disfranchisement in the case of W illiams vs. Settle, and that the people made haste in 1894 to overthrow Mr. Simmons at the polls, and the supreme court effect ively suppres.sed his methods by their rnlingin Quinn vs. Lattimore. In spite of all this, though slightly disfigar^ and somewhat discred ited, here he comes again, still un abashed, asking poor and ignorant men to trust his naked promises and to accept his constitutional viexs, which have been tried and found wanting, tested and tattered aud shattered by the people, the courts and the congress. I take the liberty of saying that I am opposed to negro domination, and have never feared such domi- n:ition since Halifax became' the banner democratic county of the State. I heartily endorse the act of the present legislature, chapter 488, en titled “ An act to restore good gov ernment to the counties of North Carolina,” which gives certain conutics in the Kasta separate form of government. I advocated a sim ilar meiisare in the legislature of and I insisted upon section 5, chapter 135 of the laws of 1895, in fact wrote the original dr.ift of the section providing for bi-partizan boards of commissioners in certain contingencies. The aim and the effect of this provision has been to safeguard the financial interests of these counties aud render impossi ble incompetent or corrnpt control by either blacKS or whites. In my judgm ent this separate county goi-ernment law makes the proposed amendment wholly nn- necess.ary. f now subm it without fear of ar gument a summary of my reasons ior opposing the amendment: 1. I am opposed to it because I am conviuced that it conflicts with the federal constitution. 2. I am opp&scd to it because I know, and its advocates do not de ny, that it violates the act of con gress by which the State was read m itted into the union. 3. I am opposed to it because I, along with every registered voter in the State, have taken an oath to support the Constitution and laws of the United States, and I cannot -^figlate the law which readmitted the'^^te'F^thont violating my oath. 4. I an^^yBosed to it because I cannot aceeptthe?*flSjift’oii of its most eloquent advocate, my conscience for^he public I deny the possibhity of prombauff public good by sinking private con science. o. I am opposed to it because it inires paym ent of poll tax as ~~(iuisite 6. r am o p p o ^ to it because it will disfranchise all or none of the illiteA t^, both black and white; act as a bTote without obligation, and because I believe it is danger ous to the law and order, peace and progress of the State to have within her borders a great body of people without master, without protection, without guide, without hope, without higher restraint than the fear of punishment and with- ont higher incentive than the pangs of hunger and thirst. W e give our readers this week on the editorial page, a paxt of Hon. Bich. Pearson’s able article on the election law and the am end ment. It is a very readable article, and we hope all onr fiiends will give it a close reading. The bal ance of his article will appear in next w eek's' issue. W e are. anx ious for the people to have a thor ough and correct idea of these two Democratic machine schemes, and then, if after such an nnderstand- ing, we get a free ballot and a fa* com t, and they are adopted by a majority of the ;ieople honestly en titled to vote thereon, we shall be satisfied to the e ^ e n t that we be lieve the people should have what they vote for. Nevertheless, we believe they will soon regret it. W hen yo jr rights and liberties are gone, if you vote them away your self, yon can blame no one bnt yourself. Read the election law and the amendment, get a thorough nnderstanding and then vote as honest freemen for what you con ceive to be best for yourselves and your country. Let the people rule. The Asheville Gazette asks: -‘If. the constitutional amendment is an - honest measure that the white men { of the State can support, why w as' a dishonest election law enacted to ■ help it through 1” I F re e G ilts to R eco rd S a lis iM lm : ONE 950 BOCK HTT.T.

The elder’s ua'aia was Agri" cultara. Slia was a handsoina girl of pare n.\ aisad sfcoc'tc, calm, very labor ious a'ad of bncol’o inciioatioaa. Tho yoaagev daughter had a littlo foreisja bloo.l in her veins. Her name was In* dnativ; a v?ry pratly girl indeed, full of life, not averse to flirtation, and of e.'itrameiy vivacious tempiirament. Seldom indeed have two sisters pre sented a more striking contrast. To co;uplete her education,_ the younger dausbter, the more promising, went abroad. Siie visited LaacanShire an J .‘ipsut some tima in tho old ances tral raanor. While there ehs made a lot of desirable and uudesirable ao- qitaiatanc23, which were snbaequantly to exert a most disastrous indiienee on hor happiaeis. Xhis phase of her his* tory would i!il a good sized volume. The wavivard girl cauie back hotae incosnioiiolitau attite,aCfeoliuga Lon don accent, a free thiaker in matters oi economy. As she exhibited all the outward signs ot unrestrained prodi gality, old Sister Agrioultara could never get along with her. Tho origi nal cbaam had developed iutoau abyss. It was not long bsfore Mother Inde- peadence's keen eye could detect the dangerous propensities of her prodigal daughter; so she deemed it wise toap* ply a strong corrective at once, iu tlia shapa of a healthy, -vijorous husband. To'.ing A'uerieaa Indastry nasded it very badly. Har mother had beforehand seleolaS a virile eoaipauion of athletio frame, aad e-iaally well built morally. His ua'ua was Xhe Tarifi'. He was not of aobl-j extraciio'j, had not bsen edu cated tor diplomacy, bat in plaoe of & university diploma or a heraldic coat of aras could on almost every ooca* sion show a lot oi hard .American com* mon sense, character and individual ity. He had been raised at tho school of strictest econoiny, and was suro to be e modal of domestio vu'tues. A mavriage. took place on a good day early iu November, and the aiother at last felt lelieved of all anxious cares ap ’ responsibilities. The youaj wife at first was very {on I oi her husband, whose kind at* tentions a'aticipated her smallest w.tats and most capricioas desires. She had more pin money than any wife of a euceessfal business man ever dreamed of. This was tho begin* ing of the trouble, as Industry was too versatile to stand, like Sister Agricul- tare, naintcrrnnted prosperity and domestic felicity. A most happy event of Providuatial timeliness prevented, or, better said, postponed a family cataclysm. Two lusty sons, twins, were the legitimate fruit oi this nnion. Father and mother decided to call the first one Labor, and tho second one Enterprise. As they had in their veius the virile blood of the father and the healthy constitution of tha mother, both boys were very stron.g, fall of health and appelite, but—and very likely owing to the widely different characteristics of the father and mother—they were far from being physically and morally alike. Baby Labor was fond of the milk bottle,but, for some reason or other. Baby Enter prise ever managed to have it most of the time in his little mouth. "Whai a big alattou,” used to say the mother. “Each baby should have his turn. This is not fair.” "Never mind,” rejoined the father; “I ehall make one boy a lawyer and tho other a mechanic. With such blood iu their veius as that of Father TariH and Mother ludastry, both will succeed in their respective callings.” And this was to happen some day; but we must not anticipate. Four years after marriage the tem perament of Industry, for some time nader testraint, asserted itself more violently than ever before. AU was not harmony under the conjugal roof. To make matters' still worse, the two ohildi-en. Labor and Enterprise, bad to be separated, as they were fighting •all tho time over the milk bottle. Baby Labor, like Aunty Agriculture, was of a happy and conciliatory dispoai* tion, never seeking quarrels without motives, but Baby Enterprise had more of his mother's blood, and no amount of milk conld stop him from making trouble. The separation of the two boys was easily accomplished by giving each baby a nurse, and let* ting them see each other from tima to time when the “dpirit of Enterpriss" was in the right mood. But what could not be so easily ac complished was harmony between husband and wife. The union of Miss Industry with Mr. TariGT, having been prompted chiefly by oonsiderations of Interest, did not prove altogether a lore mafoh. The extravagant wife had at heroommandnntoldthousands; she wantednn'toldmillions. Thia her kind husband ooald not give. A catncly.«m w»« in the air. One day, coming home after bnsi' ness honrs, earlier than nsnal, Mr. Tariff found bis beantiful wife iu the nrrus of a false irien 1, n Trust .Ua’- nate. Ha shot the dsshroyer of his booie and robber of his airections. The drama ended in x divorce, and the court gave Father Tariif the cus tody of Labor and Enterprise, his two legitimate boys. The divorced wife, having becomo again Miss Industry, lost no time in trying to secure auother husband more to her fancy, bat she fonad oaly temporary aei}aaiDtanaes, v/ho nsvei would consent to let her bear theii names nor share their ra'jk and social position. Illegitimate children wera tho result of Miss Industry’s culpable relations. They bear tha geaus nama of Trusts, but hive no rolaiions '.sshat* ever to Mr. Tariff, and ard 'uaivsrsally ostraaized. iad what bscame of JI:'. TariiF, the divoroed husband? ■Why. there is still auothsr ebaptar to this sad story. Mina Indufitry, after foar years of abandon and miserable life, bitterly regretted her faults. Sue raasQtea, and tearfol^yasksJ fpr^iveiusa.pledj- 'ing berielt to beoama a XaI^iuI, de* and (WaerWrHltUfe. fo'rSTe aa1 >el* J," conjugal I ! *' ^ of the mother withher tw6 legitrmata sons. Labor aad Enterprise, was one ot those events which can be batter imagined thau asscnbad. Father Tariff went so fat as to adopt the •'aitla..Trust3” chil dren and to look after tljem, but never l»gitimi?i them no.* a llie d thorn to bear his name. When they became of age they were plaoed in a good school for infant in* dustries, and received there a splendid educahoa at Father TariSTs expense. Satnsf Tariff’s early predictiou as to the future of his two legitimate Hons, Labor and Enterprise, was to be Sally realized. To-day Baby Eater- E>rise is somebody. He is a prospar- oas lawyer aad successful politician, often talked of as a possible candidate m some future campaign. As to Baby Labor, he is now a mechanical engi neer and Inventor of the Edison type, who sets the world thinking all tha time as to what is to come next from -im in the way of inventions. Moral; There i» a moral to thia story, too, and it is this: ‘ Trusts are the offspring of Ameri can industry, but are not and never were the legitimate ions of the tariff.” E e s i s i M as. tarl# and Trade. Every now and then some mossback among Democratic editors has some thing to say about the protective tar iff. Usually it is a reramping ot tho old, old free trade theory that a pro tective tariff is a "Ohinese wall,” ob structing our foreign trade. These benighted brethren should study the reports ot our foreign trade. It has never beeq so great as since the enactment of tho Dingley law. In place of being a Ohinese wall, it has expanilod trade beyond all previous records. Tha dictum of our free trade friends is utterly wrong. It should be, “Protection increases tho volume ot our foreign trade.” That is the experienca of the past two and a half years. It was our experience under the 7vIoKiuloy law. tTnder tha Damocratio Wilson tariff car foreign tiada dccliucd.—Toledo Blaia. ■^lue of D'ftinei'tr^'ainpslitlofa.'

ReCwood Gettinj Scarce. Cnlesi something is done to de* crease the jresent rate of cutting red wood timber from the California forests the supply will be exhausted with;u the next generation. The red* wood is of slow growth, the tree not reaching a marketable age in l.Fsthan fllty years, aud then the timber is only valuable tor telegraph poles and lesser nses of commtrce, whereas it the tree is permitted to attain its fnll growth its timber may be . mployed toi' any unmber of ornamental pur- po ee. Tbe tree itself i. particularly beantiful and ii found only iu Cal ifornia, Where in maturity it is trori twenty to twenty-five feet in diameter and reaches a heisht of from lOU to 100 feet It is perfectly straight and for nearly half its height there is not a limb. It lives to the age of 1,000 years; some writers eay 1,500 years, estimating irom the number of tings ai'cund the trunk. The timber is largely used for wainscotings, panels aud oeilings, and being of a smooth grain readily takes a fine finish. The lumber is shipped to the eastern states in large cargoes, also to Australia, Kew y.ealand, India and to oth.r parts of the world. B o u n d to B . Good.

Pearson’s able article on the amendment and the election law. W hen one has lead it care fully and thiiiks of (he past history of our grand old State, one can but bludi w ith shame, to think to what depths of degradation the Simmons EegiJator crowd have descended in order to place the governmcut of this State in the hands of one po litical party. If they had any real or justifiable excuse for depriving the poor man of his rights, one m ight endorse this crime against the rights and liberties of the people. If the Republicans and populists are such a bad set, could they not trust the hOLCSty of the people to fiud it out and rebuke them at the polls t W ith one of tbe fairest and most honest election laws they claim to have carried N orth Carolina in 1838. Then why repeal a good law and place a very bad law on the statute books in its stead t W e answer : Not because the people wanted or demanded it, but because Simmons and his crowd wanted a perpetual lien on the oflices iu this State, and knew that they could not get it by a free ballot and a fair count. In our next issue we are going to give our readers certain sections of the three election laws passed by the legislature since 1876, and we want you to read them and com pare them from the books and judge for yourselves which legisla- the x>cop)e an honest election law. W e don’t ask you to take our version unless we are borne out by the fiicts. T h e E k - COKD proposes to give you the truth, and leave ialsehoods to more congenial spirits. -CALL O N - 3 R 0 W N .

AVe are anxious for some learned Democrat to answer the following questions: Question 1st. U nder the election law of 1899 who deposits the ballot in the box, the elector or the judges I Question 2d. If the clectortis re quired to deposit his own ballot, and is not able to read, is he not virtually disfranchised by the ope ration of section 29, which declares all ballots void found in the wrong boxi Question 3d. If an elector cannot read, how can he deposit his ballot in the right box unless some one shows him t Question 4th. Is not section 23 intended to prevent those who can not read from getting aid from those who could show them the proper box into which the ballot should be deposited f Question 5th. Do not these sec tions 23 and 29 virtually requt'C an educational qualification in ad vance of the qnestion on adoption of the amendment; this being so is not the election law unconstitu tional T ■ W e will gladly publish answers to these queries f>r the information of the public. Iiiconsistcncj'. Oiir new election law is the pro duct of a cross between the Goebel law of Kentucky and the Tillman law of South Carolina. The child bears a striking resem blance to both parents. The human part of our machine is drawn from Goebel, the mechan ical part is drawn from Tillman, but the w^orst parts are drawn from the biuin of the author who stands like an acrobat with one foot on Goebel’s shoulder, the other on Tillman’s shoulder, and jierforms feats of dariug which outclass his supporters and place him deserv edly in the rank of Maehiavelli. The origin of our law is seen by a glance at the following laws: GOEBEL ELECTION LAW. Sec. 1. The general assembly shall at Its present session elect three com missioners who shall be stYled “ The State Board of Election Commission ers.” Sec. 2. Said state bo;. <1 of election commissioners shall ari-.ii^lly, not la ter than the month of fejjilember, aj - point three election commissioners f( r eachcojnty who shall be styled “ J'he County Board of Election Com mis sioners.” Sec. 3. Said county board tnall an nually, not later than the m onth ot October, appoint for each election prc'cinct in the county two judges, one clerk and one sheriff of election to act as such in their precinct. SIJIM ONS ELECTION LA W . Sec. 4. That there shall be a State Board of elections consisting of seven discreet persons who shall be electors, elected by the General Assembly at its present session. Sec. il. That there shall be in every county in the state a county board of elections to consist of three discreet pertoas who are electors in the coun ty in which they are to act, who shall b e api 0 D ted as hereinafter provided by the state board of elections. Sec. 7. That it shall be the duty of the county board of elections in each county to appoint all registrars and judges of election In their respective co-.nties. The Courier Journal, in au edi torial written by H enry W atterson himself, said of it: “ The people may well stand aghast before the revolutionary elec tion bill whicli has, like some dread monster, suddenlj' emerged from the fastness of pii.'Sion and error throngh which the legislatnie has been threading its tortuous waj'. It is safe to say that the annals of fi-ee governiuer.t will be sought iu vain for auythiug approaching it iu shameless cfl'ronterj' aud uncon cealed deformity. The records of reoonstruction furnish nothing to compare with it. The Brownlow despotism at its woret ventured upon nothing so boldl}^, wholly bad as this. “ In all the force bills meditated by the radicals in congress during the dark days of reconstruction there were discernible some pre tense or pretext, some lingering ■nemory of republican iustincts and traditions. Eveu in the Plebiscites ofl^ouis Napoleon there was the outward display of a just electoral prtxjess and purpose. This force bill gives the voters “ j’^fintneky not a ray of liope. It in.'.kes no claim or show of fairness. It places exclusively in the hands of three irresponsible persons, to be named by theanthoreof the measureilseli, the entire electoral machinery of the state. That is the whole of it. In one word, aud at one fell swoop, K etucky is to become the subject of a trium virate which, w to dccide who shall hold office and who iilniU. not.'’ M r. Simmons ai>pears to have overlooked one great truth iu tox icology, that a grain of poison will kill the victim but an ounce of the same poison will so shock the stom ach that it will be rejected. Dr. atiou his i>oll for the current year in which he proi>oses to register and for the year next preceding, if liable to pay a poll tax.” A nd further, the same section provides : “ That if any applicant for regis tration who is perm itted to register shall confess upon his examination under oath at the tim e he is ad- m itttd to r^ stra tio n that he has not listed his poll for taxation for the current year, if the time of his said application is after the time fixed by law for listing taxes in that year or if he shall adm it that he did not list his poll for taxation for the year next preceding, it shall be the duty of the registrar to cer tify said fact oi facts to the clerk of the sujjerior court of his county, and th e said clerk shall hand such certificate to the solicitor for the district at the next term of the su perior court, and the solicitor shall without delay draw and send to the grand jury a bill of indictment against such elector so registering for failure to list his poll tax.” The law says to the voter “ if you vote without listing your jwll tax you shall be indicted.” It is idle to contend that this does not make the listing of the poll for taxation a pre-i'equisite to voting. W here is the man who will stand an indictment in order to enjoy the luxury of voting ? This requirement of the law is in conflict w ith A rt. V I, Sec. 1, of our constitutiou, and is therefore void. ■ In Van Bokkelen v. Canaday, 73 N. C. R., p. 222, the court declares: “ The general assembly cannot in any way change the qualifications of votei’S iu state, county, township, city or town elections.” And in E . R. v. Comrs. 72 N. C. E ., p. 492. The Constitution defines who are tlie qualified voters of a county A rt. VI, .Sec. 1, and the legislature can not change the qualifit'ations. In the law which we are consid ering the legislature has attem pted to force upon the people the very qualifications on which they have invited the people to pronounce judgm ent in the form of a Consti tutional Amendment. They at tempt to put into operation tests of the right of suffrage before such tests have been. adopted by the people. . . ., This is oondenniing a man first and trying him afterwards. 3. After the intending voter has proven his qualifications with the most stringent particularity by the oath of two other votere and in ad dition thereto has himself taken the prescribed oath, we find in section 22 the following: “ Provided, tliat after snch oath shall have been taken the registrars and judge may nevertheless refuse to perm it such person to vote unless they can be satisfied that he is a legal voter.” In other words, after the appli cant has furnished all the proof refiuircd by the law he may never theless be rejected and disfran chised by the arbitrary decision of the registrar and judge. In the case of Van Bokkelen v. Canaday, 73 N. C. R., p. 229, Judge Rodman says: The right to vote is property, and no man can be deprived of it but by the law of the land’' and the arbitrary will of the registrar is not “ the law of the laud” in the well settled meauing of the Bill of Eights. 4. M'e now come to the master stroker Section 2,^ jjjovides- “ T hat^a space of not more than fifty ie*“fm every direction from the polls or the room in which the election is held may be kept open and cleiir of all pereons e.xcept the election offi cers lierein provided, which space an active partner in the cheating, and the state which has neglect^ toedncate her children is pnt in the attitude of mocking their mis fortune and of adding to their helj)- lessness. Mind you the victim in the narrow passage is a white man and a democrat, he holds in his hand a ballot “ .A ^ n st Amend m ent,” his executioners ara two p arti^n democrats and one pre tended republican, all favoring the amendment. They tell him to “ vote lively and pass along:” he drops his ticket in the legislative box— and it is lost and he is disfranchis ed. M r. Simmons is this the “ poor and ignorant white” man whom you have promised to proteett Is this law the best proof you can give of your devotion to his rights and interests t Do yon pretend that this provis ion will be enforced in the Ea^t but not in the W est? The answer is: A ll regulations of the election franchise, however, m ust be rea sonable, uniform and Impartial, they m ust not have for their pur pose directly or idirectly, to deny or abridge the constitutional right of citizens to vote or unnecessarily to impede its exercise, if they do they m ust be declared void.” — Cooley Cons. Lim., page 602. So that your law m ust be uni form, or it Will be declared void. The right to establish separate lo cal governments in the different counties comes from the express grant of iKtwer in section 1-t, article V II of the constitntion, but article V I on suffrage contains no such authority. M r. Simmons m ust know that our mountain people, democrats as well as republicans, will resent the operation of section 23 of the elec' tiou law. Men who cherish the memories of K ing’s Mountain and of Mecklenburg will not perm it themselves to be driven into a slaughter pen like dumb brutes and denied the right “ to speak or make signs,” they will not perm it the act of voting, which they have re g a rd ^ as an act of pride imd dig* nity, to be convwted into an act of peiBonal hnm iliation luid shame. Yon m ight jnst as well reqaire them to crawl throngh the narrow passage on their all fours, sprinkle dnst on their heads and thns offer the “ Grand Salaam” to your elec tion bailiCb. T o n m ig h tjo stasw ell deny the right of of a lost traveler to ask which is the right road, as dnny to the bewildered voter the right to ask which is the right box. This law In den^ii^ the funda mental rights of the citizen and the natnral rights of man is in conflict with our Bill of Eights, and is therefore void. M r. Simmons, have you never read those words of Chatham : “ The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance toall the forces of the crown. It may be frail, its roof may shake, the wind may blow through it, the storm may enter, the tain may enter, but the K ing of England may not enter, all hia force dare not cross the threshold of the m ined tenem ent.” A nd I am bold enough Io tell yon that the force of all your elec tion bailiffti date not invade the constitutional rights of the poorest illiterate white man in thesemoan- tains. B ichhond PEi.B80N. W hile in W ashington, Senator Butler told a Post reporter that he had “ no confidence in the proposed constituiional amendment.” Be- causeofthis, theN ew sand Observer says: “ Butler lights. H ew illjoin with the n ^ io party, to fight the amendment.” Their only argument is to cry “ nigger.” A party that will lie and has not argument to defend its jnsition. is as detestable as a “ negro party.” N«®roes can’t help being negroes, bnt white men can help being fools and liars.

Knval oCQciais say that it is neelcs-s fot the Navy Department to recommend th€ construction of any more armored vessels nntll tlie armor controversy i>as been set tled. On account of the provision in the last Naval Appropriation bill, tbat con tracts tor the three armored cruisers and threa battleships provided for by tbat measure eball not be awarded until contracts for their armor have boon made, the naval authorities maintain that no good can come of providing for the con struction of more armorclads, as those al ready authorized have not progressed even to tbe point of the drawing of plans. No plans for these six vessels can be drawn until the Department Is sure tliat it will 0 eoure the necessary armor. Another rea son why It will be us^ess to ask Congress to provide more armored crulsurs and bat tleships, is tbat the shipyards of tho <-ouu- try capable of bnildlog such big vessels are already overcrowded with work and will hardly be able to begin tbe construction ol the six armorclads already authorized for a very long time.

GERMANS ARE ANXIOUS. UNITED STATES TRADE RIVALRY WORRIES THEM. T h e y A r e K o t O a t v I ^ o s lu e t& o A m e r ic a n M a r k e t F o r T h e i r O n u P r o d u c t s , B u t Are Saflerios From CompetlUou In 75 tbe World’s Blarketf. The Germ an Chambers of Com merce are manifesting deep cotcern on tbe subject of the outlook for trade with the United States. Our ^ice- Consal-Ge«ierAl at Frankfort, Mr. Hanauer, has transmitted to the State Department eeveral reports of these commercial bodies which betray not a little anxiety at the prospect of losing the biggest of all markets for German products. The Frankfort Chamber of Commerce draws attention to the fact that “ To-day the United State.s looms up as the greatest producer of bread- stufTs, and with all the factors of gigantic development in metal produc tion. Tt has already attained such a position in all blanches of industrial power as to enable itto boldly take up the gauntlet of-competition in the in ternational arena. Germany has no special treaty with the United States; the most-favored-nation clause is the basis of the mutual trade, but this presupposes that both nations main tain toward each other such tariffs as not to m ake tbe change of goods pro* hibitory. T he Dingley tariff has affected Germ an exports inimically. Germ any’s imports from the United States in 1898 exceeded those of the previous year in twenty-five leading lines, whereas she export^jd to the United States confriderably less in twenty important lines than in 1897. The question arises, Is the most- favored-nation clause without a tariff reduction on the part of the United States of any value to usr" The Dresden Chamber of Commerce notes the fact that owing to the ad vantages enjoyed in specializing and subdividing the manufacture of ar ticles, in the immense capital em ployed in every branch of trade, and iu the cleverness of Americ.an con sular ofBcials, "the United States is enabled to sell at lower prices, though paying higher wages than its E u ropean rivals,’* and adds. ‘ ‘The opinion is prevalent in various quarters that if the present tariff con tinues we mu; I familiarize ourselves with the thonght that our esport to the United States will some day cease altogether, aud that if we want to do business with that country we must establish branch factories there.” The Chamber of Commerce of Hagen, a centre of iron and steel manufacturing, puts forth a dismal wail regarding the strained condi tions which €xist in tbewire and wire- tack trade, all because of tbe compe tition of the United States: ' ‘The iron trade there has developed in a stupefying manner, making the country a productive power of tbe first-class. The condition of this trade in Germ any has, during the last year, grown Hiore and more unfavorable, because the Americans have ftcadily taken possession of the markets iu Japan. China and Australia, which heretofore bud been supplied mftiulv by Germ an producls. Tbe priceu abroad have at the close of the year decliued si> lev that creu German works that produce rolled-wire have to give up taking contracts, on ac count of the cost of tbe raw material. Nor is the outlook for the lately es tablished wir«5 tack trnst at all auspi* cious. as it must submit to heavy sacrifices in order to snatch at least a few orders from the claws of Am.«ri- can competition.” Solingen*s complaint is that its cut lery industry is iu a bad way, “ be- caase, owing to the closing of tbe American market, the competition at home hae bccome so intense as to un dermine prices, diminish profits, aud produce a decline iu the quality of the goods made. The manufacture of scythes, it is noted, was sufficiently active; but in tbe fatnre this branch is threatened by the increasing import of American giasB m owers.” Thus we find that in many lines of industrial activity Germ au producers suffer seriously because of the compe tition of the United States— first, in the invasion of the Germ anhom e mar* ket; second, iu the invasion of com peting markets upon which Germany has heretofore had a firm hold; and, third, in the diminished demand for many of Germany's products iu the valuable American market. It is a condition not likely to be improved by any reciprocal treaties which the United States will be willing to make, and still Jess xirospect of relief is apparent in the direction of tariff modifications. The United States some lime ago ceased making tariffs for tho benefit offoreign competitors. Thereis, how ever, oue possible help for Germany — that suggested in the report of tbe Dresden Chamber of Commerce, viz., to establish branch factories in the United States. M a n y European m anu facturers have already yielded to this necessity, and more are coming. FoilUcs aud Biuincst. It is possible, of course, that busi ness m ay be somewhat unfavorably affected by the political battle of next year, this being a uot uncommon ex perience in the year of Presidential contest, but the danger of this will be reduced to a m inim um if events fihftll be such as to create general con fidence in Bepublican success. Let the financial and eommercial interests of the country feel ^ell assured of an other Bepublican m u m p h and the national campaign will have little ef fect upon business.— Omaba^Bee. W b l c i i Bo Y o u W a a tV T he McKinley (“ robber” ) tariff, en> acted by Bepublicans, brought pros perity to our country. The Wilson tariff, enacted by^ D?mocratH, “ for revenue only,*' brought n? bard times, disaater in'business and a general de- preaaion throughotit the country. The Dingley Republican protective tariff agaiu brought prosperity, happiness and contentment, while Democratic laws for revenue only mean want, desolation and bard times. W hich do you want?

The ex perim ents in question were made on pine wood, on plates of iron, on a liv ing horse, and a portion of human corpses, a t distances varying from 11 330 yards, there being, however, llt- ' ditterence between the effects on living and on dtad m aterial. The hole Is from five to seven m illim e tres in size, and decreases w ith the increase in distance, the aperture of exit being, however, slightly larger than th a t of the entrance. It seems th a t the effect of this weapon on the S, hollow bones was exactly siml- to th at of the German infantry rifle at three thousand to six thousand feet—the bone was splintered in every case, and in no instance did the pro jectile rem ain in the bone, th» track of the bullet invariably forming a smooth channel, w ithout shattering before the bone, aad w ithout bony debris, while in the event of a bullet striking the skull it invariably shattered the latter.

Particularly relating to the shoe, we have in the A ryan fiction such nevei to be forgotten tales as the Immortal Cinderella and the Glass SJipper and tbe Seven Leagued Boots.

The election law and the constitutional amend ment are dangerous, pai tizan legis lation. calculated and intended to perpetuate one political party in power regardless of the wishes or desires of the people. They strike at the fundamental principles of self-government; they enthrone a partizan machine in power with unlimited, imjierial powersand dis cretion, at whose will thousands of voters, white and black, can be deprived of their rights to partici pate in the election of their ser vants. Let the poor but hone-<t yeomanry once lose their rights at the ballot box, and they are gone forever. It is a m atter which every freeman should consider well and long, for their future welfare and that of their children depends upon the right of the x>eople to rule and govern this country. W e fought England because of unjust laws de- jiriving the iieople of the right to participate in their own govern ment. “ Taxation without repre sentation they declared was un ju st.” and Patrick Henry, the Virginia patriot and orator, cham pioned upon the hustings the rights of the people. England heeded not the protests, and a declaration of independence .ind war followed. Should we not profit by the expe rience of the p ast! Is it not easier and best for us to hold and main tain our rights and liberties while we have them, than to regain them after tney are once surrendered and lost ?

N. DAY, .Teweler. W e see that a meeting of Demo cratic editors wiU take place in Raleigh fair week for the purpose of orgauizing a Democratic Press Association. W e suggest a meet ing of Republican and Poiiulist editors. AVhat do you say to it, brethren 1 A Leti^tlmate Comparison. W e call our readers’ attention to the three sections of the election laws of 1S76-1895 and 1890. Read them carefully and see which party gave you an honest election law. These three sections are for a com parison, and shows conclusively that the Republican-Populist elec tion law of 1895 gave every one entitled to vote a chance to have their ballot put in the right box and counted. It is made manda tory on the judges to carefully place his ballot in the proper box, and should the ballot get in the wrong box, it was presumed to have gotten there by mistake, and was counted, unless that presump tion was rebutted. The Democratic law of 1899 declares a ballot found in the wrong box void, and does not require the judges to d ^ o sit the ballot in the proper box. Con sequently, all who cannot read, white and black, are virtually dis franchised by this election law. Read it yourselves and see if we are not right. Our Democratic friends are not spending much time in explaiuing this 1899 law to the people. AVhy ! The answer is too plain. I t’s a dishonest law, in tended to defraud the voter of his rights.

The indignation over lf">ipnti- cing away of Greensboi-o cooS^' by the employment agency is in c i/ 3- ing. It lias re;illy become a very serious question. It is conserva tively estimated that at least one hundred and eighty cooks have left there in the past few months. The last complainti—and he is milking an immense kick—is Mr. John A. Barringer. For six years he has kept the same colored cook in the I'amily. She learned all his little whims about the preparation. W ho cauld cook an egg like she could cook it i W here was her equal on broiled steak 1 She was incompar able on a "biled” dinner I And nov.' she is gone—gone. These em ployment agency people have seut her to the cruel North, where she will receive a few more dollars a week and be debarred her sacred church privileges.—Raleigh Post. W ell, it is hard to please some : people. Some are advocating the i exportation of the negro in order to I get rid of them. In 1891 the Dem ocratic legislature passed a law making it a felony for an emigrant agent to do business iu this State without a licence. They want them and they don’t want them . Poor negio; he seems to be between the devil and the deep blue sea. I|!ow many crimes and outrages are com mitted in the name of our country i AVe are advised to even “ sink con science for tne public good.” The Richmond Dispatch says :— “ The net result of the Democratic Carnival at Dallas, Texas, in i>oint of sentiment, is said to look very, much like Brj/an and O. H . P. Belmont, for president and vice- president, respectively.” Well, it could be much worse, bnt not probable.—Raleigh Post. The work of recrniting for the United States army in this State is about ended. North Carolina, as nsual on such occasions, has fur> nished more than her quota of men.

The said railed or roped space shall at all times during the hours for balloting be kept opec and cleared of all persons except the election officers aforesaid; and it shall be the duty of the election bailiff, hereinafter provided for, to keep such apace so cleared and opened. Each Again.st the W est. In four of the newspapers of this State that have reached our desk this week there have been very positive assertions that the Sim mons constitutional amendment would be carried at the polls. Ifo reason for this belief was given, other than that the “ white men of the State, regardless of party, ai-e in favor of it” —an afsertion easy to make, but of course entirely false. The Gazette has intormation from many parts of the State that the amendment is not popular—that the risk involved in passing a measure an im portant part of which is un- coastitntlonal is becoming more and more felt, and the fact the 'idvo- cates of the measure are falling back on their old cry of “ negro domination” as their sole defense of their position is regarded as an evidence of demoralizixtion and weakness. The basis of any confi dence felt by the advocates of the amendment—where such confidence exists—is not in the justice of the measjure, nor in the fact that it is a step advocated by a large class of citizens, but we think few will dis pute our assertion when we Siiy it is iu the fact that tbo.je interested in the passage of the amendment have the election machinery with which to pass it. The Simmons e!e ;tion law is the foundation for the confident assertion that the Simmons anieudinent will be car ried—and elaborate arguments to iniprc.ss public opiuicm in favor of the ameiKlmeut is not necessary. This is the position taken by the politicians—the machine that is seeking to make itself‘perm anent.’ They will do what they can to re vive and .stimulate racial prejudice in favor of themselves, but their real dependence is in the Simmons election law. “ The issue is sini'.>le, clear-cut and plain—Permanent W hite .Snprcinacy vs. Negro Rule; he thal is not foi us is agiiinst us,” s-iy;- the Raleigh News and Obser ver. And this is the whole thing iu a nutshell. •W hite Supremacy, as it stands revealed In the light of the Simmons election law, means the trium ph of an orgiinization of unscrupulous politicians; to make their hold on the State permanent is the only issue with them, and “ Negro Rule” is the nonsense they talk to avoid a too close public scrutiry of this issue. W hen one hundred thousand negroes can rule two hundred thot^piud white men this State will be iu ilanger of ne gro rule..but not till then. W hite supremacy* reiil article—will not be made sti'onger in North (,'ar- olina by the disfranchisement of a large number of white citizens. The framers of the Simmons amond- ment can have little sj'mpath.v for the white counties of W estern North Caroliua when they scheme to amend the State’s constitution in a way that will destroy the power of thonsands of these white citizens to vote. Every tiiir minded man real izes that the conditions in the east and iu the west are totally dissimi lar, and it is fortunate that article 7, .sectitui 14, of our constitution permits the establishment of differ eut forms bf local government for the difierent sections. ought to satisfy our brethren iu the cast, but it is a curious fact that nearlj’ every political law placed by the- Democrats in our statute books within the last thirty years has been written by an easfern man,political party shall be entitled to have at each polling place a challen-. ger, and if the vote of any elector ^j list as every chairniiui of the Dem- shall be challenged by them or any other elector or the registrar or judges of election, upon the announce m ent of such challenge the said chal lengers or either of them and any of the -vitnesses that m ay be called'for or against the elector whose vote has been challenged, shall be permitted to proceed through the passage or en trance aforesaid to the polling place, and remain while the testimony is being taken upon the question of challenge and no longer. O rganization the Iteniedy. The Durham Herald says : E n couraged by the recent advance in cotton the farmers in many sections are discussing various schemes to force the price sti’’ higher; and while we can but hope that some such scheme will be successful, we fear that after the erop has been raised and prepared for market is not the time to secure best results. oratic State committee for the past generation lias been an eastern man. Cox, of Edgecombe; Coke, of Cho wan; W hitaker, of Halifax; Smith, of Northamptoa; Simmons, of Cra ven; Pou, of Johnston; Manly, of ('raven; aud now Simmons ag.iin, attest this fact. Tlie.se distinguish ed aud wise men of the east have I ii<''^ ,-lways considered the temper of our western people even of their own party. The Simmons consti- mtiopal amendment with its power, when reduced by the courts to the portions of it that are constitution al, strikes heavily at the political liberties of the white voters of the west, iu order to satisfy these ea.st- eru demagogies by leducing the i)“gro vote in the ea.st. In view Df^the fact that special elections will be held this fall or iu the early spriug in western senatorial dis- But still, if an organization ouee b e; tricts, it is well that this should be etfected,*it could possioly take steps j iia'lcr-stood here. The bimmons to control the acreage, which we j election law and the disfranchising believe to be the only proper aud amendment are measures to be re- etfective solution of the problem. W hile the mill men know that there is a supply of cotton but that it is being held for better prices, thej^ may adopt the tactics of tte farmer; and while one waits for a lise the other will wait for a drop. Although farmers are almost a unit in opposition to trusts, we believe a gigantic trust of cottoh growers | pudiated by the whole State, as is the object that called them into existence—to make machine rule permanent—but we of the west are to be the greatest losere if by fraud and misrepresentation the aniend- nieut is passed.—Asheville Daily Gazette. ................. ^ The Rev. Sam Small, the revi- is the only means of putting up the valist, will be a partner in a news- price of cotton and keeping it up.

Cape Tows, South Africa (By Cable).— War has begun In earnest. The first blood was drawn by ^the Boers, who captured an aruorcd train. Fifteen British soldiers were killed. The train bad been sent south to bring in twoseTen-pounders which were on the way from Cape Town.to strengthen defences at Mafeklng. At Eraulpan, iorty miles south of that place, It ran off the rails, the enemy hav ing removed the ties. It was then attacked by Boers, who for half an hour poured shot npon it from their artillery. Captain Nesblt was in command. When the train steaming at fuU speed to get tbrough in time, reached Kraalpan, the burghers were in strong force, and it was possible, perhaps, to go l)ock, but there was a chance of running through, and Captain Nesmt pinnkily inhose the Inttor alternative and was wrecked. Nesbit jirasj unable to reply effectively, and the Boers bad as easy victory. An American citizen has sworn to an affidavit before- tue American Consul at Cape Town in which he states that he has been subjected by burghers of the Pree State to great 111 treatment. His limbs bear marks showing the effects of the treatment he has received. A military order has been issued direct ing that no civilians be allowed to enter the camps In the colony without permits.

He had never been out of Missoivi in his life, but he was famous for the graphic fidelity of his description ot foreign lands. His reference library consisted of exactly th r ^ works: An encyclope dia, a set of i^ ite d States consular re-, ports, covering four or five years, and a copy o f.‘‘Wood’s N atural History.*^. If the Scene of the.3 to;*y was to'be laid, for Instance, in Borneo, he would be gin by reading the Borneo article in the encyclopedia; thea he would tarn to the consular reports and look up all the odd and interesting m atter be could find touching that particular island, and finally be would get a description of its anim als from Wood’s. He wrote at an old table on which was glued a map of the world, covered with a sheet' of glass. This was constantly before his eyes, so he couldn’t go astray on geography, and. as I said before, his descriptions were marvels of accuracy. He cculd draw a better and more re alistic pen picture of foreign countries than travelers’ themselves. People thought that he had been a great g'lobe trotter, and, crazy as it sounds, I be lieve he actually got to thinking so himself. The la«t trme I saw him he talked about Afghanistan in the easy off-hand vein of a personal ob-iarver.

The E ducational Qualification W ould Stand. The A tlanta Constitution, which has been championing the canse of the North Carolina proposed con stitutional ameudment, has this to say of the results of tlie amendment if the discriminating clause should be stricken out—the views of some of onr Democratic legal lights to the contrary notwithstanding: “ A t any rate, if the Supreme Court of the U nited States should ever in any case from North Caro lina, Louisiana or Georgia hold that the amendment of this charac ter violated the 14th amendment of the federal conslifiition. still the balance of the law proposed would be constitr.tional ami the educ-.i tional qnalificatioa would Sl;iud, and that wonld accomplish incal culable good.” This is going a little fnrthei' than any of our North Carolina '‘patri ots” have yet gone—to respect the !(lea that the Supreme Court of the United States wonld adjudge the race discriminating clause to be un constitutional, and that white and colored alike would be disfi-an- chised.

You may be able to get a large city paper filled with murders, (iock fights, scandal cases, etc., for Ices money than yon pay for yonr local paper, but these city papers never advertise your community and make the property niore valu able. They do not help along your s<!hools, churches and public enter prises; they do not publish your; j^ning power while governor. The home news; they say nothing, good answer to it by the party charged, of you, your town, or your neigh borhood; they take no inteiest iu Statesville , N. C., Oct. 18.—The Republican State Executive Commit tee in session here to-day issued the following: To the People of North Carolina.; A crime is impending against your rights as freemen. The assault has been made but not yet consummated. You were warned in the last campaign of the Democratic design against your liberties. The men who warned you were denounced as liars by the Dem ocratic organization. You now know, and the world now knows, whether the Democratic leaders were telling the truth, or the men whom they branded as liars. It is too late now to bandy words; all disguise has been thrown off; the fight is on. You are driven to make the last stand for your liberties. You believed that your rights were secure, entrenched iu the Federal and State Constitutions, fortified by the Acts of Congress, and protected by the solemn pledge of the Democratic par ty. That party is now trying to break down all these safeguards and impu dently tramples in the dust its own plighted word. Unless we mistake the temper of the people of North Carolina, they will rebuke this most scandalous breach of faith, and stamp out tjiis second at tempt to nullify the National Consti tution. We have no fear of the ver dict of the people if freelv expressed and honestly returned. We know that thejr will never consent that the sub jection of one class of citizens shall be made permanent in order that the privileges of another class may be made hereditary, especially as our Bill of Rights declares, section 30, ‘ No hereditary emoluments, privileg es or honors ought to be granted or conferred in this State.” The Republican party in the State of North Carolina does not, and has never, feared the submission of any question to the popular will, providing there is an opportunity for a free and fair expression of that popular will at the ballot box. The present election law passed by the last general assem bly, if enforced in North Carolina, stands as an insuperable barrier to the honest exercise of the elective fran chise by the legal electors of the State. Added to these objections we find an other: The arraignment of all public abuses at the bar of public reason is an axiom of liberty that is the life of .ill free republics. This cannot be witnout the existence of separate po litical organizations. This election law, and the propoised Constitutional Amendment, controlled solely by one political party, would destroy forever the possibility of the exLstence of more than one political party in the State of North Carolina. This necessarily results from the contr-il of the elec tion machinery by one party. Where ever such laws have existed such has heen the result. The state of Mississ ippi, which has 1,400,000 population, :ifty per cent, of whom are white, and which elects seven members to con gress. does not cast as many votes for its entire delegation as were cast in the Ninth congressional District of North Carolina in the last general election. In South Carolina, which has 1,131,149 inhabitants, and elects seven members to congress, a smaller vote was given than was polled at the last general election in the state of South Dakota for two members. In South Carolina 58,089 votes were given in all the seven congressional districts and only 7,475 votes given for the Re publican ticket. These figures show that there is practically r.^nly one po litical organization-in ttfe* states of South Carolina and Mississipjji. The possibility, therefore of the arraign ment of any public abuse at the bar of reason cannot be here in North Caro lina under the proposed conditions, simiLir to those which now exist in the states of South Carolina and Mis sissippi. It can be established by tes timony that cannot be denied that a political discussion in the states of Missls.sippi and South Carolina has not been heard by even its most intelli gent citizens for a number of years. This Ls because of the absence of any but the one political organizatioi?^ which has entire control of the elec tion machinery. It is a m atter of public history, gath ered from the -pubUc press of the State of Mississippi, that in the last cam paign in said state for the high office of United States Senator, before the Democratic primaries, that the cam paign was nothing more nor less than a shameful quarrel between two of the most distinguished gentleman of the state, who was a candidate, charged the other with the selling of the you.

Thwe are not cars enough nor ships enough to cairy the piled up freightage that aw ci's shipm ent at the great centers of Uade and pro duction. Pro.«perity seems to have brought on a blockade of its own. If the people, the great common says tlie Philadelphia Record. potent in its effects on mind there of those inter- people of this cjunty, once get a clear understanding of these twin schemes defeat sure and certain will over take the conspirators'against the rights and liberties of the people. If the people believed the Demo cratic. speakers and papers during the 1898 campaign, when they hurled the lie and other insulting epithets at Eepublicans because they told the people if the Demo crats were socceesful at the jwlls they would attem pt to disfranchise a portion ot the people, how can they now believe the same crowd alter they have broken their sol emn promises and pledgee, and have done eractly what they prom ised not to do, and have dope T^^^t which was omnij the popular min ested, was by alleging that he making this charge was guilty of a far great er crime, to-wit, the disruption of the Democraitic party. We are convinced that the proposed amenndment is both unnecessary and uncon-stitutional. We are convinced that the new election law is utterly void and that any proceeding under the same v.-ill be a nullity. We are resolved to test the validity of these measures in the courts, and to fight them to the utmost at the polls. This great struggle rises above par ty and reaches the realms of consci ence. and we are confident of the sup port of every citizen who obeys the promptings of an honest conscience, ----------g f oath, for the want of buyers, or spinniu: around hunting for a market, but is almost spoiling for the means of reaching those who have already bought or who have the money to pay for it so soon as it can be delivered.______ ________ EeportB received at the war de partm ent show that the arm y has reached its maximum strength of 100,000 enlisted meu, of whom 65,- 000 are regulars, and 35,000 volun teers.

W e are pleased to uoto tlie a ^ t« - tiou in this direction, which is goad one. Good roads are a necessity to the farm er and fruit grow er; apart from the desirability of having y o p products arrive at shipping point in the best possible condition there are m any other considerations, am ong them the saving of tim e, and the w ear and tear on both man and beast, ih3 capacity for carrying increased loads, etc. G eneral Roy Stone, D irector of Hoad E nquiry of the D epartm ent of A gri- cuU are, says th a t m ore activity is be ing displayed in road im provem ents than has been shown for year^, not only iu th e construction o? new roads but in the general agitation for their constractiou. “ All th e road machine niauufacturcrs,"’ he sav.«, “ are driren with orders, and the office of road in tjuiry is overrun w ith applications for svdvice on road legislature aud assist ance in road eoustrnction. ’ There are nearly forty road con ventions to be held this fall, mostly iu th e N orthw est, w hile a num ber of object lesson reads are to be built iu the W est and South. The use of convict labor on road im provem ents ia spreading rapidly ia the Southern States. In oue locality n'iar C harlotte, X. C ., seven miles of good stone roads have been built iu this m anner. E very farm er should take an interest iu this movement as he, m ore than anyone else, reaps the benefits of good roads. L et us be up aud doing. A gitate this question am ong your neighbors, w ith yoni* Icpfislature and th e pow ers that be iu your locality. T rue it will mean an increase in taxes, bu t the benefits derived from good roads would more then com pensate you.—Sacred H eart Review. A u t o i n o h l l U U S h o u l d H o l p . T he L eague of A m erican W heelmen will m ake an effort to get all owners of antom obilcs to become members. T he tw o classes have one common de* *ire—the betterm ent of the public liighw ays. and as the league has for •everal years agitated this subject and is acknow ledged the leader in the good roads m orem ont, it ia expected th at there will be little titoable in get ting ow ners of th e new vehicles to join in the crusade for better high w ays. Should the leagne be (%ccess- ful in its purpose it will be to the ad* vantage of th e organization, as well as the antom obilp^ow ners, as it will bring to its m em bership an intiuential class, and one which has as yet taken little interest in the good roads m orem ent. That the autom obile rider will have to take a hand in the agitation cannot be disputed, for under p resent conditions there are com paratively few reads in this country suitabbj for either class of vehicles, &nd th e antom obile own ers m ust have good highw ays as well as th e wheel ow ners. To secure these they can do no better than to join forces w ith the w heelm en, aud as the league is desirous of increasing its m em bership they will be approached with a view to th eir becom ing m em bers and active w orkers for good roads. I V a s tp o f IS a il IC o a d ff. The A gricultural D epartm ent has collected statistics show ing th a t the average load hauled over our A m eri can country roads is alm ost exactly one ton, and th a t th e hauling costs per mile about tw enty-five cents for each wagon load o r ton. In W estern Europe, the average load ia three tons uud the cost per m ile a ton varies from •seven to ten cents. T he average for England, F rance. G erm any, Italy, Sw itzerland and B elgium ia 8.6 cents per mile for every ton. E uropean farm ers are enabled by th eir better roads to haul loads th ree tim es as heavy as in this country and thereby save tw o-thirds, approxim ately, of the cost. Those figure.«» are a telling argu m ent for better roads. T he w aste of time and labor and the wear :ind tear on vehicles enter b u t slightly into the com putation and should also be con sidered. T he whole story shows the m iserably m istaken econom y of bad road.s.—St. P aul D ispatch. fiood ItoadM IVill Follow* T he coming of automobile.s will u n questionably accelerate the impulse given by the bicycle to tbe m aking of good roads. W h e n automobiles are made .so cheaply that people must have them just as they must have im proved farm machinery, then it m ay bo expected that good roads will come with a rush. T hey cannot come too soon. It has been demonstrated by statistics that it costs American farmers three times as m uch to haul a ton as it does the faimera of Europe. But when automobiles on good roads so far reduce the cost of carriage that their use must be general, then the conditions of their use, namely, roads fit for them to run on. m ay be ex pected.— Indianapolis N ew s. A G rand B oulevard. Som ebody said it w ould be a good thing to have a $10,000,000 toll road rim diagonally through C onnecticut, from northeast to southw est, aud in teresting stories dealing w ith the possibilities of th e schem e are afloat. It is argued th a t w ith accom m odations, for wheelm en \u d other travelers by approved tw entieth century m eans of locomotion, including pow er for auto mobiles on tap at convenient in ter vals, the enterprise could no t fail of success. If the road w ere actually built, it ia surm ised th a t M assachu setts would continue it to Boston, form ing a grand through route from New York C ity to B oston. One of llie State’s Best Hop««. The St. Louis Republic sees in the campaign for road improvement now going on in Missouri one of the best hope:i of the State and says: “ The A m eri 'an farm er is a t an ex pense three tim es greater p er m ile for hauling his produce th an th e E u ro pean farm er. T his is because the. •service standards abroad are low er au 1 because th e roads th ere are a g reat 'teal better. T his drain upon th e •‘^rlciiltnral energies of th e co u n try ^ill continue until th is annual surface leafcment is sapplanted by » system^ fundam ental and perm anent oon- “traction.”__________________ T he autom obile v«bic!es wbioK flpal j aS □ at #8W are very popular la F«rw .

Instead, however of retaining the letters, cards and .so forth until some one descendE to get them, the Paris invention prom ptly delivers its contents to the person for v.honi they are intended. T hus.' when Ihs postm an has a letter for Mr. So-and-ao he deposits il in the bo.\- bearing ikat gentlem an's name. The missive opens a lever at the bottom of the box, w'lich thereupon m o\es upward until it comes to Mr. So-and-So’s apartm ent. T!*i>r?. by an ingenious mechanism, the .con tents ot the box are emptied into a re ceptacle In the hall of the apartm ent, and a bell is rung autom atically to no tify the servants that a letter has a r rived. Its duty done the box des,-;onds again to take its place wjth those of the other tenants in the vestibule.
