TO DUPES AND VILLAIN'S. We note from different points that there come up threats of violence on the adoption of the proposed amendment. We do not believe there is much dan ger anywhere, and :. especially here. Should we be too op-' t'imislic we can onlv sav thatanv 7 w act of violence or. injury will1 have but one seauel: It will be bad for those who allow, them selves misled-- in,to U.-The1 ameudment aims to "wrong no man or class of men. It aims to e moot and overcome as - far &$ possible 'the ieirible wrong of the 15th' amendment to the United States constitution. .The regro, as is shown by a trial, of J'5 years, has no more business svith the ballot, than a four-year old boy with a razor. As the boy can be expected only to cut Lis throat, so the negro in his I'.ck of the genius of self-government injures himself and his State by a misapplication of this great privilege and responsi bility. They might be made to see . it if they were not poisoned by such men as Pritchard, But ler, Thompson, Holton, and, we ire sorry to say, men in our own town and county. It is cruel, . it is outrageous, how the passions of the people are stirred up to looking upon ihe amendment as an unfriendly .act toward any man or set of men. . If,, however, hese;-agitators succeed in getting up strife and trouble they need to take care that just punishment does not fall upon .-their own heads while their ignorant dupes arcs learning some wholesome lessons. , 8AMPJLE GF-YILLAINY.. A pretty sample of . the- devils try . being practiced by -'these enemies of their race and State, all for a "tew offices, is that in KrAe : niu townsnirj. . xraniin county, where Registrar A D William was arrested on the af- JMavt of negro, Asbiry Well. The igistrardouitd the dge of he negro and demanded fproo? ihat hi was 215'earsold, where upon, the fegro paid on trial, tlyat a blank affidavit was put into his hands and he was told to go before a magistrate and fill it out and send it to Butler and it would count ibr a vote. He says he did so, not knowing that he was-, making, affidavit against Mr. Williams. .TUere was no evidence against Mr.Villiarcsand bis case wa dismissed; The negro is in. it, hbwevor, an "taust stand his trial -before the court. ; Thus , these . ignorant dupes that don's know. w"hat tfiey are doing are thrust upon us with the ballot and each ..one. kills a. ballofc cast by; a man voting in telligently for. the good of all the citizens of the State.. And yet we have , a ticket in pur own county opposing the amendment , and trying :,to keep this burden upon us; They put up some kind of -excuse satis factory, to , prejudice-blinded minds. It is a wonder that a free gov ernment can stand with so many clogging weights upon it; roruLisi timely wouds. Our Home, the leading Populist paper in ttie State-wel says: 'If the amendment is not car ried this year the race question wtflrbe the issue two years from now. . . If some solution is not put into effect then ,it will.be the issue in the following -campaign and on until it is eliminated 'No reform can come until the negro question is removed from poli tics. We, as a Populist, have heard enough of the racket and we'll be glad when -the 2nd day of August comes, so that we can cast our ballot to remove this question and elevate politics to a higher and more decent plane. We can understand how Repub lican leaders who make merchan dise of the negro votes and who ride himnito office cani;through selfish motives, oppose the amendment, but we can't under stand why any Populist can op pose it, unless he has been mis led by the Fusion pictures and literature sent out by, the Fusion managers... A Let's get .above pre judice and act independently, and in such a way as to bring about .better political eondi- tions." . Such sentiments .from such source should carry weight and will, where , the hide is not im penetrable. x - ., , ; SIMMONS' LETTER FRUITFUL. . Ghairpan Simmons' open let ter to President McKinley. is far from the empty thing- that some presumed. It . has gone forth oyer thesta-te and country carry ing with it a ?ery uncomfortably scrutinising gaze and has reached the- president as acknowledged by his ptivate.s.ecretary an has also, gotten to the- clTil. service commission and has Jbeen ac knowledged,;by , Mr. Money in - , . m, . ver7. Tle. wy There is treasonable hope thatith affi davits setting fprlh speoffic in stances it will be made, uncom fortable for the revenue officers. Action will be too late for this election but there are plenty of good fruits already and we Vv ' hardly need more at present. It will propably .be a wholesome check on these impudent in- 4 truders. ' WHITE DEjlES. a . "Ye,., see that, Congressman George White has, in, the Morn ing Post, a denial 5f the incident reported in the Kinston Free Pres& in Which rife 4s said to have demurred against going "into the colored department. He. say s he knpws nothing about the matter of six or eight white men coming injb the aff air and says it is with out foundation, as was the pircusl incident. , He should ask Dr. Thompson for .a correction of that matter, The doctor em- phasized the incident here. It is a reckless man that will go on record as opposing the constitutional amendment, with his better senses . and practically the virtue and the intelligence of the State all opposed to him. Many a child of the third gen eration will doubtless blush at the' blind prejudice of ancestors in this campaign. , , Week End Bates From Concord to places named below, good from Saturday and returning Monday p. m., of each week till August 26th: ' v' Asheville.
