A DESPAIRING EFFORT TO AT
TAIN RESPECTABILITY.
That grand, gloomy and peculiar in
stitution, known as the Republican
convention of North. Carolina, emerged
from the recesses of Senator J. C. Prit
chard's vest-pocket long enough yes
terday at Greensboro to hold a meting
The good, colored brother, hitherto
such an important adjunct to a Re
publican pow-wow, -was conspicuously
absent. That fact, however, need
not alarm the colored brother. After
this campaign when the party wakes
up and finds that the coat of respecta
bility whitewash refuses to stick, the
colored brother will again be led forth
that the pie-hunters may the better
ride up to the counter.
The action of the convention in "en
dorsing" T. H. Hill for chief justice
was known several weeks ago. It was
known then that Mr. Hill, a former
Democrat, who deserted from the
ranks in 1896, would be endorsed in the
hope of securing enough "indepen
dent" Democratic votes to elect him
over Judge Clark. The futility of
that scheme is apparent to every reas
onable man now: it will be vividly ap
parent to the Republicans about two
months hence. Mr. Hill will secure
the Republican votes and those of a
few disgruntled Democrats, but they
will fall far short of electing him. If
he had gone before the Democratic
convention at Greensboro like a man
and rested his candidacy upon the
choice of the Democratic party, he
would be entitled to the respect and
esteem of the people. As it is he at
tempted to deceive the party he claims
as his own by posing as a Democrat,
knowing all the while that his object
-was simply and sorely to secure the
endorsement of the Republicans. That
act has forfeited even the iespect of
weil-thinking people and no honest
Democrat can afford to vote for him,
be he independent or sworn to party
fealty.
The only way in which Mr. Hill can
regain the respect and good opinion of
bis fellow-citizens is to reject the
"endorsement" of the Radical conven
tion. As for the Republicans, their aim to
attain respectability wTas not strength
ened by their action yesterday. It was
their last card and they are welcome to
all they get out of it. The prediction
is ventured that before another con
vention year rolls around the tactics of
the party will be shifted again: and the
attempts to don a glaze of respectabili
ty will have been laid aside for the old.
openly corrupt methods for which the
party is notorious in this State.

THE JOKE OF THE SEASON.
The biggest joke of the season, and
cue which promises to become most
popular for its deep scintillating satire,
is the following plank from the plat
form adopted by the Republicans yes
terday: "We invite the attention of the peo
ple of the State to the clean, able and
economic administration of our Slate
government by the Republican and
PopuMst parties from 1897 to 1901, and
challenge a comparison of it with the
present reckless management of our
affairs by the Democratic party."
As a writer of platform jokes. Col.
Zaides Voluminous Walser is a huge
success. No need to invite attention
to the infamous fusion legislature: the
people of the State will never forget it.
They are likely to remember for ages
how gag law was applied to several
of the most prosperous cities in
the State and other little bits of
rascality too numerous to mention.
Fear not, Zebulous Vainglorious Wal
ser: the people will not forget that
measly crowd and you'll see next No
vember that we are right.

The Republicans have gone into the
endorsing business pretty strong in
this section of the State, hoping there
by to attain some degree of respecta
bility.. In the West they have not been
so particular, as witness the nomina
tion in the Sixteenth Judicial district
of Dean Sisk, a brandy-gauger and one-'
ho?se lawyer for judge of the superior
court. If the nomination had been
made for constable, it would have
caused no kick, but such a man for the
superior court bench well, that's
about the true size of the Republican
party in North Carolina.
