MONDAY, APRIL SO, lftOfl. r i ;: AN L'XPLEASAXT IIETKOSPKCT - THE FIT URIC Col. Watterson grows reminiscent. .We do not know If he means In tho quotation that follows any more than appears on the eurface; but In repro ducing It Tho Observer certainly means no Jibe, nor to reproach any . of the thousands of good men who were lead astray by a false light. We : mention infrequently the unhappy days and issues hero referred to, be- cause the subject Is not agreeable and the reminder might seem unkind, yet for the'.r own wakes our good people ought to be kept in eternal remem trance of some of the circumstances ,pf the past because such recollection IS profitable for doctrine for reproof. tor correction, for instruction In right ousncsK. History, wo aro told, is philosophy teaching by examples. - How better, then, can we learn wls- Mpdom for the future than by recollec tlon of experience passed? We Intro duce two quotations from a long cdl- toriftl In Tho Louisville Courier-Jour . nal: rree silver was u fetich. It wus a .'-poison. It nai the veriest shadow of a taill bow. We mean not to speuk evil of the dead. Hut the truth is truth, his tory Is history. For a tlmn free silver made crasy people of whole sections of Democracy. It drove out of leadership most of the thoughtful, fur-seeing men Of the time, and with them great todies Of upright, conscientious, life-long Dem ocrats. It brought an unnYdged. half educated set of leaders to the front. It lost us our footing everywhere except in ..the Bouth. -After ten years of wandering through ne wiaernes. wc ai:,j )n ci4e we Carry the next Congress and we believe We shall Just where we were when we elected Carlisle Speaker in 18X3. nearly twenty-three years g. In equipment for the new tariff discussion a new gen eration of leaders and debaters will need to appear updn the scene. The glnnls nf the old debate are gone. The matchless Hurd, the puissant Heck, the Inexhaust ible Wells, and Tucker and Iwimar and Vest-each a Rupert, altogether a host they shall not be with us. Their helmets hang upon the walls. Amid the din and teonfuslon of free silver, their bugle-cull left scarcely an echo behind. The work they did so well and had brought almost to a finish will have to be done all . over again." In this enumeration of "tho giants of the old debate" Henator V'anco ahould certainly have been Included. When Senator Beck died his mantle fell upon Senator Vance,- who, by natural ability and close study of this liubject, made himself the master of It and the most formidable speaker and debater in the Senate of the side of tho revenue tariff men. But we have been swerved, as Col. Watterson was, from tho original proposition that free silver relcgat- ed the best element of the Democrat ic party. (The Intelligent reader knows that there Is no referenc here to Senator Vance, focJjdied In the Senate. Hut Col. WatlersJTTiv might have said, if he had thought to- look at home, that free silver had retired the two ablest kentuckians that have been known In this generation: Sen ators Carl'sle and Lindsay. To South Carolina It cost Hampton and Hut ler; to North Carolina Ftaiiaom: and to other States we do not know Whom, except that It is known that mall men who bowed to the popular Wave were preferred above 1,1 g ipen .... ho stood up against It. Tho case of DuBlgnon, of Georgia, is recalled- In the nation, ignoring State lines, there Were Cleveland and tho truly great Then Who stod around him- -tho members of h's cabinet and others -flfone or forgotten, and the parly, un der Its present absurd leadership, is but a mob. Men like Halh y In tho tienate and John Hhnrp Williams In the House fight In vain against Its tendencies. 3 But let us cheer up. Kansas ),i,h Mt a new pace. It has endorsed Til danism and Clevelandism.

Mr. Toma la a man of standing as a lawyer and a citizen In his section of the State and as he has been a life-long Democrat and an active worker in the ranks of the party, his decision to ally himself with the enemy w411 be a surprise to those who know him. One who be lieves as he does, however, regarding the principles of the two political or ganizations should do as he has done. Mr. Toma deserves credit for his can dor and It Is to be hoped that his pas sage Into the Republican camp will not brine; down upon his head the abuse that too often follows In such cases. We think Mr. Toms is unduly frightened at the free s'lver and free trade sentiment in, .the Democratic party. As a matter of fact, both are back numbers, the former having died a natural death and the latter, if It can be said to have ever bad any following having been superseded by the polley of a tariff for revenue However, Mr. Toms' belief In a pro tectlve tariff makes any argument as to the Justness of the Democratic tar Iff position unnecessary. - As to keep ing the Philippines, Mr. Toms Is also with the Republicans, but In hi praise of President Roosevelt he be comes one of a number of dlfferen brands of Republican, the existence of which difference he probably did not have In m'nd when he said "ther arc tort many kinds of Democrats As to the negro vote being eliminated from the Republican party, the Sen ator Is correct, but we might remark in passing mat tnis is not by any meana all that ailed the organization 'In regard to State politics," write Mr. Toms, "X wish to nay that I am satisfied we ahould have a better pub nc scnooi system, lower taxes, an more Just election laws, . and better equipped asylums, also various other reforms which I conceive are beyond the power of the Democratic party to give." Some of the needs here enum erated are pressing, but we are un able to follow the reasoning by which the conclusion ts reached that the Republican party. If returned to pow er in North Carolina, would do even as well as the Democrats have done As was said at the outset, Mr. Toms should not be outlawed for hit course. If a man of Ms standing cun bring himself to the point of Joining the Republican party In North Caro lina at this time, he is entitled to full credit, for he certainly possesses to the fullest degree the courage of his convictions; and this Is a free country, In which a man has a right to ally himself with any party or no papty, as he pleases. .

Mrs. Roan is thoroughly - devoted to library work, and what 1 mora, knows it JUST HOW IT IS. The Greensboro Itncord takes note of the controversy between The Richmond Times-Dispatch and Mont gomery Advertiser concerning the Liza poem and song, and says, after presenting fairly the contention of each : if permitted to enter the controversy we should like to remark that both p,i. pers have tho stanza Incorrectly quoted Tho Observer Is correct In saying that It Is a ( arollna production; It whs written by a man from Nubbin Ridge, Rocking liarn county, and Is heard here to this day, him) this Is how it runs: " oi go ,own new-cut road, I II in down lane If you K'-t there 'fore I do. Kiss old l.iza Jane' ' This Is 'It - the original production: It had a chorus which we could repeat, but this Is iilte enough; it clinches the Whole liuslness." It Is with great diffidence that we record n difference with a paper us ually so accurate as The ireenshoi o Record, particularly In matters of classic literature and more particu larly still In matters of poetry and song.

MA8ACBV8KTTS IX V A V RIDICTJ. Tha Massachusetts legislature Vhai for o.uta a while-been wrestling with the question of making an" approprW uon ror an exhibit at the Jamestown Exposition, arid curiously enough the race question haa been altowwg , to dominate the whole matter and oppo eltion of" certain- negro leader" bids fair io aeieai me proposition. ,wnea tne bill was about to be passed the negroes came forward and asserted thaVjtheir race was not given a fair show at tthe exposition and unless that defect could be remedied no appropriation ahould be made. The negro vote is apparent' ly of some Importance to whoever ca secure it In Massachusetts and for several weeks past the General As sembly of that great State has pre sented the spectacle of endeavoring to find a way out of the difficulty withou offending the colored cltixens. Th legislators, it seems, are not willing that their State shall go uprepresented at the exposition and yet they must not displease the colored brother. A a final solution of the problem a Bos ton Senator has proposed an amend ment to the appropriation bill and the Senate has adopted It. This amend ment, according to The Boston Tran script, Is destined "to place Massachu setts In a false and foolish position be fore the country." The amendment as adopted "conditions the appropriation upon a guarantee satisfactory fo the Governor of the State that cltlsens of Massachusetts shall be as well treatel , In Virginia as they are here," says The Transcript. "Of course the meaning of that is apparent. It practically means that under certain circumstances like ly to arise Virginia must suspend the operation of her laws and customs. else Massachusetts will not participate In the historical event for which gen eral preparation Is now making." In short, we take It that there must under no circumstances be anything that could be construed as a drawing of thi color line at the Jamestown Expftsl tlon If this Massachusetts approprla tlon Is to be available. In all probabil ity, this amendment. If it passe ' IH branches of the Legislature, will have the effect Vt annulling the approprla tlon. The Boston Transcript takes a strong stand against such a course, de claring that "It la an Insult to Vir ginia, but it is a reproach to our own commonwealth. If permitted to stand," continues the paper quoted, "weahall not hurt the Old Dominion, but we shall put ourselves in a posi tion to Justly Invite the ridicule of oth er States. The action Is a sacrifice of dignity, a refusal of ordinary courtesy and a violation of the most evident Inter-State comity and civic pro priety." In addition It is said that the negroes, whose favor It was Intended to win and "whose support it was of fered to nail dow n," are not satisfied. It ia Indeed a nice thing for a State like Massachusetts to set hefora tha Vmntry, but withal not a source of any great su like A well-reguuted i::::e jrprlse. This from The Washington Post: The unexpected, the astonishing, the amazing has happened, and It was pulled off In Kansas as usual. A day or two ago the Democrats held a State conven- ion out there and what do you suppose hey did? Why, they brought Cleveland- sm in fashion again, and even nad the . merlty to put Mr. Cleveland's name In he platform and pledge the Darty In Karisafc-to support the old-fashioned Uoctilne, us enunciated hy .Samuel J TB den and re-ehtincluted by drover Cleve land -these the Identical words nf Kan. in Democracy." And this In Kansas! and the Demo rats are Bald to have. In spite of this platform, an even chance to carry the State this year. O, every body II get right in the course of time. That to What F. W,.

In the campaigns of Hit, 1900 and 1904 the Hcpuhllcari committees expended iao.000.ooo, and the Democratic iom iiilttees $2.2&,0O0. making a total of 32,as,0O0 In three campaigns, in which were cast, all told, H, 800. 000 votes. The average expenditure waa SO cents a vote, but the Republican expenditure was nearly ti per vote, while the Democratic expenditure waa less than H cents. If these Ag ue are correct, th Republican rec ord 1 discreditable in tho extreme. It takes mon)', and lots of it, to run a national campaign on legitimate lines. but nothing like the amount snd to have been expended by tho Hepubll can committees. IT ISN'T YVOHTH Wrtll.E. The Charleston News and Courier s still backing Its friend Hallle In her war upon the Mecklenburg Declara tion of Indepedence and cannot un- erstand why Tho Observer and the people of North Carolina do not take them seriously. The case has been rgued exhaustively In these columns, me and again, on the part of the Declaration, and Its authenticity establ ished conclusively to every open mind. To continue, to thresh over these arguments would suggest that e ourselves had doubt, where no outit exists, of their soundness, Juat tho damiuiblo Iteration" of The ews and Courier and Hallle is dem nstratlon to us that they doubt their wn conclusions. There are some hlngs that, once established, It were as well not to endeavor to support by further argumentation. When a preacher gets up, clears his throat and announces his purpose to preach a sermon designed to prove the divln Ity of Christ, he fatigues his congre gation before he begins.

There was a bold attempt at rob bery on North Caldwell street early last night. Mr. W. T. Fisher, who runs a store at the corner of Sixth nd Caldwell streets, lives at 220 North McDowell street. Last night he went to church and left his wife and 4-year-old boy, Dallas, at home. Mrs. Fisher stepped out to call on a neigh bor, while Dallas kept the house. The boy had not been alone more than a few minutes when some one wearing mask slipped In from tho back way. tapped him in the head with a small stick, pushed him down, tied hla legs together, and gagged him with" a handkerchief. Thinking that he had made the boy sate the intruder pro ceeded to go through the house. He came upon a pistol and, turning to where he had left the boy, aald: "I do not want to hurt you, but 1f you maae any noise 1 will shoot you with this pistol." But the would-be robber reckoned Ithout his host, for young Fisher crawiea out or tne rront door, hob bled as he. was. and rave tho alarm and tho neighbors ran tn and he had to disappear out of the rea door with out having secured and booty. Mr. Fisher ltful h neat little aurn of monev In the house but the thief did not find it Dallas could not say whether the Intruder whs white or black, as he wore a cloth about his face. There Is no clew to the guMtv per son but the officers are trying to lo cate him. 'I he boldness and daring of the deed caused quite a sensa tion in the neighborhood where it oc curred.
