' Governor's TAddress Governor Craig spoke as follows : Gentlemen of the General Assembly and My Fellow Citizens: Democracy gives to the people the pledge of progress. The thought of the age has created a nobler, purpose in government. The Democratic par ty intends to effectuate- this purpose by legislation in - recognition of the equal rights of manland for the pro gressive welfare of" all the ranks of lift,.- ' 5- - In our material prosperity, privilege has been substitutedy for justice. .The vast wealth of modern industry, the products of labor and genius have not teen divided in equity, but have been gathered into the 'enormous fortunes f the few.

Throbbing with energy, po tential with accomplishment she looks expectant- to this administration and to this General Assembly. I believe that you Senators and Representatives will perform your task with wisdom and courage and that your" work will be for the welfare of this generation and of our posterity. The responslbi- ty is ours, the opportunity i ours. Constitutional government and! the ideals of the; fathers have ever been sacred :to the . Democratic party; but these' ideals must be vital, for practical j accomplishment and militant for 1 jus tiee. - It' was said of the 'celebrated opinion.' of Chief Justice Taney, that it gave the law to the North and the nigger to the South. .

The first duty of the State is to pro tect the citizen, in the enjoyment of his rights, to protect the weak from the oppression of the strong. This is what the men-were doing at Runny- mede. ' - .- The discrimination which the rail- roadshave made against North Caro lina in freight rates is the injustice of arbitrary power. It has already work ed irreparable injury; it has already cost our people millions of dollars and driven" from our territory industries. the value of which we cannot estimate. These corporations have the protec-, tion of our4aws, they, operate by our' license, they enjoy privileges and ex ercise the sovereign power of eminent domain granted by the State. They collect excessive rates from our peo ple that cheaper rites may be grant ed ;to the: people of adjoining States. I reel no antagonism to railroads.,- i know that 'our welfare to a large ex tent, is dependent upon their efficient operation, which-can only result from just remuneration.' I know, that their prosperity is co-existent with our pros perity. -I Besides, for no consideration can the State afford to be unjust.'. I intend, as the . chief executive, of this State," Coadminister her laws with im partiality and. with evenhanded jus tice to corporation and" to, individual, to the great: and to the lowly. But when any corporation or any person shall persistently and defiantly by ar bitrary wrong cripple the industries of this State and despoil her people, such person or-corpOratioh may expect rer lentless resistance and resentment. , Vance' said of those who were exr plotting the State in 1876, that it ought to .be more tolerable .for Sodom and Gomorrah in' the day of judgment than for such in NorthXarolina.

The city of High Point is to be con gratulated, that in the shipments of Its iurmture ro me west, it.wuiiave me same freight rate as rival cities of Vir- gihiaJ The same rule must apply to all our cities and to all Our commerce.
