C. - It is expected of a new edi tor to express his opinion on tlie various questions of the day. -This is wanted in order that the public may know just what to expect from the new man, or in other words, lie is wanted to lay down for him self a cast iron plan from which it is sudden destruction to depart. ,'. ' ' . . My course will be difterent. I have come to Wilson to stay. I intend making it my home, so the public may iexpect my hearty cooperation in anything tending to advance " the inter ests of the town ; also my con demnation of that which might bring discredit upon us iri any way. . While in many instan ces my views tnay be difterent from those held by some of the public men here, yet it is not antagonism that I seek, but the right. In return for what service I may be able to render the town I will expect, a share of the : patronage. Newspapers generally are nt bonanzas, but their life depends on a lib eral patronage from those in whose interest they are run. Any citizen of the town or resident of the surrounding country can have his views ex pressed in our columns. We will be. glad at any time to" pub lish any outside communica tions. " We even prefer that these communications- be num erous. Of course anyth'ng which is unfit to appear will' be returned to the writer. Let ns hear from you any time, Your interests will always find us ready ad willing to aid. ent situation? ; V j In speaking ot the' platform .the Atlanta Constitution says: "The declaration of principles ad opted by the Democratic Conven-1 tion is broad : enough and patriotc , enough to win the approval of every j fnan who nas the instincts and im pulses ol a freeman. It is in the na ture, of a bugle call to every citizen who loves his country and who de sires to see the institutions of the re public preserved and perpetuated- an appeal to all who love liberty and hate oppression and injustice to rally to the support of the party of the people, which now, as ot old, stands for every principle that men .ho'd dear and every policy that tends to make them prosperous and happy. : j TOE UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT. There appeared in our col umns of last week- a letter from Chapel Hill, stating that the presidential sentiment had all drifted towards Edwin A. Alderman.; t the call meet ing of the trustees held iff Ral eigh no definite steps were taken, but as, some of the num ber expressed jit.. "Alderman has the ropes."! Nothing will be done towards electing a new man until August 1st, when a full meetinor of the body will be present. In the hands of these men rest the fu ture of the University. It ;is for them to decide vhether she shall stride upward and onward as has been her wont for the past five years, or turn her course downward. A man is needed who can not only command and lead young men pbut also one who has a. good busnesstact. If Kdwin A. Al dermon has these requsites then he is the man to succeed Dr. G. T. Winston. The' step is a vital one and should re ceive the attention of every lover of the iUuniversity. WHY DO YfE LAIK I'UIJLIC MEN. The great battle in Chicago is over. A platform, express ing the sentiments of the ma jority of the Convention , has vbeen put before the people. In this platform are embod ied two principles which the peoples man of to-day clamors for viz. free silver at 16 to 1: and a repudiation of fhe bond issuing custom. Both have been asked for by the people. There will no doubt be some, and those who sav "I am a Democrat," who will say that this platform does not contain their sentiments. This may be true. " Very probably the ten or of the i m miitabl e laws are not in line with yours yet no one doubts for an in stant their validity. We ad mit the many radical changes in the platform, we claim that Americans, no other course could have been pursued. . We sent delegates to Chicago, these men had a larger vision - than any of us, shall their ac tions be condemned by our disapproving the platform which they firmly believe to be the surest remedy for our pres- Dr. Winston's leaving North Carolina at the time when he has lifted himself to the fore most point among Southern educators has a- peculiar sig nificance. It is an expression of the idea that existed many years acd that i our State is not a good place to live, but it is a capital nursery for the rearing of blooded offspring. The ' early settlers came to North Carolina not with the idea of making it! their perma nent home, but rather to reap the benefits offered here, and gain enough to enable them to live in style in their homes in other parte; of the . world. A sense of State pride and State patriotism was entirely lacking ing. No one j thought' for in stance of trying to develop the State to the point which would make settlers satisfied, but. in stead wanted all; without giv ing or leaving anything. But this is not the -case with all of our citizens. We have some who love; the State and are trying to utilize every availapVw mcns to place it amonr the foremost of the puthern States But the means are not available. The people generally are not will ing to. aid such persons. They seem satisfied with having and' moving in the same ruts in which they have moved for ages. There exists with many no desire to in any way widen th is scope. . This is the reason our State University seeks . a leader to day. Dr. Winston has no channel through which he can put forth his. strength, r The Legislatures giver grudgingly every cent of the yearly ap propriation. They are unwil ling to make liberal appropri- tions and so it happens that our public men, not only in this line of progress, are forced to seek now outlets for their energies. , 1 What are the conditions of education in other States ? In Virginia, besides a liberal ap propriation, every Virginian is granted free tuition. Every citizen, whether he moves in the "F. F. V.7, or is a dweller among the laboring classes, is admitted equally to all the ad vantages of the State institu tion without any charo-ef for tu ition. In Texas, where Dr. 1 Winston goes in . September, the conditions are similar. No young man in Texas pays for tuition. The State has en dowed her University to such an extent that she can afford to ofter this boon. Why can't we have such ad vantages? Is there no means by wnich the young men of 1 our State, many of which num ber are unable - to jAy tuition, may have the advantages of a liberal education ? Until our advantages are enlarged, wid ened and deepened, we will be forced to move in that utar, pitch and turpentine" State which has been our lot for many years. U AT IS CONSI STED CV ? we There is mere Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was, supposed to be .incurable.: For a .threat many years doctors pro nounced it a local disease and pre scribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Sci ence has proven catarrh ta be a con stitutional disease,: and "therefore re quires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Curev. manufactured by F. J. Cheney &. Co., Toledo,' Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market,. It is. taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts direct ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for i ny case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F.J. CHEN Y & CO., Toledo, Ohio. CSpSold by Druggists, 75c. In one of our exchanges note several columns has been o-iven ito the Democratic State Convention or as tt terms! it, ''the convention, of lawyers!" It is claimed by this, paper that the entire convention was gov erned by the lawyer element. No one else was recognized. The article contains also a de nunciation of this policy; stat ing that as lawyers are riot re stricted from the practice J of law after going to Congress, they are often induced to be come tools of trusts and mo nopolies. We grant that sev eral of the officers nominated, by the State Convention were lawyers. But the fact that the convention was hot "cut and dried" as shown by the' fight over the Governor's nomina tion, is proof that i was dem ocratic. No one' ; held the reins but all were trying to put up as a candidate a man who was best fitted. to meet the re sponsibilities of the offiqe. j In the same paper we have lerigthly - articles on Marion Butler and W. A. Guthrie. No doubt these men have late ly withdrawn from the legal ranks. They no longer Work for the fee but are desirous of forwarding the interests of the people. Why would not any of these men be condemned on the same grounds. Both are lawyers yet their praises are sung far and near by the very paper that says it is dangerous for the "control ;of our -law making to be in the hands of lawyers.' Are they, not help ing the ball to move? Oh ! Consistency thou art a: jewel. I: obacco. "N- ' . - - a crop varies mm 1:7 according to orade rf P l-cfr i-K-i.-. - LSJUP -CCO. D . 15 1L: , important .

He said that "the incomes of the Govern-; ment should equal its neces-; sary and proper expenditures and if sufficient resources are.' provided for the support of the i Government there will be no : necessity for borrowing money ' and increasing the public debt." i This is very good talk but the facts are against him. As . a result of the McKinley legis- S lation-Harrisbn's pocket book was a little stinted.
