Wlftle these" statements are c amusing in themselves, yet, for the benefit of a few people who belong to that rlase, "-Tnai permit ornerH 10 oo Jl ' ' At 1 .Mueir iiiiiiiKiug iur iiium. uuu through their partisan bias 1 J A. vsj-aro leu loueueve hujiuiiih that a Republican paper may ?naj in ue us. imp ua uui.v Writ, we submit the follow fng: A L- - I I J I Piraf ThftTrnstH nrn dpter - rained, if it lies within their power, to elect a repuonran - majority in the next House of Representatives. - Second. Should the uext House be Democratic, the tne foreseeing manipulators, ho control both the trusts - and the Republican pa rty , k now that a Democratic House would pans a tariff ' bill taking away from corpo rations, wno manuiaerure id ; this country and sell cheaper abroad than at home, the Trust fostering schedules in - the present Dingle? tariff ? law. In other words, they a M a V would put an rrust roaae - goods that have an absolute monopoly, on the free list. Third. This anticipated leg -Jsiaiionhy a Democratic " House would go to a Repub llon AmnA that wnnlri r - fuse to concur ia a bill of this : kind. Fourth. The question then arises "can tne Trusts tnat were brought into existence - by the policy of the Republi can party and haye been pro tected by the same political : nrtrflnixntirtn. afford to htivp. - . - - - a Democratic H ouse of Repre sentatives eleeted this .fall that i pledged to take away from them, by tariff revision. the special privileges t h e r now enjoy? The Democratic V party, if sucresss attends' its A cally and morally bound to '" accomplish the very thing tnat tne lrusrs most iear. in the event of Democratic sue cess, and the party, should fail: to carry out the anti trust legislation they have pledged themselves to do, they would not deserve, to elect a president in 1904, and in fact should not. Is it not true that the crea ture loves its creator better ' than its despoiler. - It is evident that Mr. Frit chard will have to do some tall explaining in icgard to his pension record when be gets on the stump. He has not only secured the passage of a bill pensioning deserters from the Confederate army, but he made a speech and vo ted against the first Confed- ate pension bill passed by t he ' Legislature of,1885;-Citizen. Governor Aycock, thegrea test JNortn uaroiiman since Vance, speaks here, on the 80th. .It everybody come ii nd heur him. , tfeo4 CathtrUo. or ooastlpstloa forvr real fact of the matter, it is plainly evident that the Re publican party is drying to carry water on both shoul der's. Some of .them say that the party iafor tariff revis ion; others say that it is for tariff revision at some future time, and that time is very indefinite; while others as sert that the tariff must b absolutely let alone. Between all theso views, the party is revision and anti-revision at the same time, and on both sides of the fence at once, But the Democrats are unani mously 4or tariff revision, and they are consistently so. They even went so fur as to unite in a formal invitation to the: Republiean majority in the post session of Con gress to join them in legisla tion that would destroy the monopoly of the Food Trust and .withdraw protection from all trusts which sell A merican goods to foreigners cheaper than to our own peo pie, when the laid all parti sanship aside and by. so do ing agreed to remove it from the pale of partisanship up to the higher plane of Ameri can )rinciples. The Republi cans completely ignored the proposition. They are, there fore, nndcniably and abso lutely responsible f o r t h e continued extortions of the trusts. It Is a responsibility they cannot shirk; a respon sibility that they cannot run away from; a- responsibility they canLot overcome tho they fill the land with cries of prosperity, which is a pros perity of trusts from now un til doomsday.' The fact that North Caro lina Republicans are. going about picking up all disgrun tied Democrats and all com mercial Democrats and .put ting them on their ticket, ho ping thereby to make a re spectable showing when the votes are counted, shows the desperate straight to which they are driven. The only trouble with the plan is that it doesn't set well on the stomach of those who are Re publicans for principles rath er than for pie. Good, honest men of no party are fond of supporting mongrel and hy brid tickets out out bv de- w signing bosses and no one can blame them if they don't. Asheyille Citjzen.

What right haye I to shirk the primary and convention and leave to my neighbors the duty of main taining for me and my chil dren the blessings of liberty and good government? . Ic time of war we look with con tempt and abhorrence upon the man who skulks and refu ses to fight in the hour Ait the country's peril. Shall we for get that "eternal yigilence is the price of liberty ."and that peace has her warfare, which tax the courage and fidelity of the' citizen? The excuses which raeu make for their fail ure in this great and ioipor tant duty are numerous but we will have time to consider only a few. Some men say that politics is a dirty busi ness abd that .they will not have anything to do with it. This sentiment we hear only too often, and that too, a monggood men. God save the State and nation where such sentiment becomes dom inant: Then indeed would pol itics become a business and doubtless a very dirty one; with the men of character standing apart, wrapped in their robes of righteousness and carelessly watching the spoliation of their country. Jf it is a dirty business it is the fault of these very men who, instead of going about speaking of the evils and cor nipt ion of the politicians, should do a man's part in cor recti Dg the eyils and stamp, ing out the corruption. But, say some, we would be in the minority, and be outvoted by those who are in 'It only for what they can get out of it This is not true certainly in North Carolina. I ani ooe of those that belieys In the savin.; morality and coa- roon sense of the people, and am certain as long as the peo pie of North Carolina take an active interest in their poli tics, corruption can not per manently exist. A. M. Scales at Greensboro. When a political organiza tion is controlled by the Trusts, and that orgunisa. tion is in control of the Gov ernment, then that govern ment ceases to be of the peo ple or bv the people; but of the suffering trillions by the luxuriant few. Look at the situation in the mining die tricts. Come and hear Aycock, the cleanest and ablest speaker in North Carolina. Tuesday the 30th. George B. Hiss; Bepubli can candidate for Congress in the Ninth district, has de clined to meet Ui. Webb, the Democratic nominee, in a joint discussion, and therein, in our opinion, be acted wise ly, as we are told that he has never yet made a speech in public. Wonder what he'd do if elected to Congress, ' Come and bear Governor Aycock and Commissioner Patterson on the 80tb. It will be a treat. . The Aahevilie Citizen savs that the Her.
