THE OPPRESSED FILIPINOS.
"We have no right to ake from' the
Filipinos what our fathers prized so
liighly. This proposition is not only
4ad, but 't threatens the very life and
the perpetuity of republican principles
in this country.," piously observed F.
M. Simmons at the Asheville opera'
house Wednesday night, and we can
eee his eyes water for the poor, op
pressed Filipinos, who are being de
iprfved of the freedom '-which our fore
fathers prized so highly. These words
of the hero of the late"glorious victory"
in North Carolina and the author of the
Simmons law, .about republican prin
ciples being threatened in this country
would draw tears from a wooden image
Elsewhere, in his address the patriotic
Simmons referring to the election in
this state in August said: "It was bet
ter for the negro as well as for us that
he should be eliminated and we elim
inated him." And how did you "elimin
ate" Mm? How in New Hanover?
How in Halifax? How in Rofbeson,
Ede-eoombe and all the other counties
in which the negroes1 are numerous?
Did you do it according to the United
States consitution, or the constitution
of North Carolina? Is high way, robbery
elimination? Is the counting tof 4,500
negro votes in Halifax county as dem
ocratic eliminating them? Is the elec
tion of a democratic 'governor in North
Carolina by stolen negro votes not
eliminated in the return but counted
es cast for the democratic candidates
-defending the perpetuity of republi
can principles in this country? Oh,
the poor, black Filipinos! How our
tiearts bleed for them that they should
be deprived of -what our forefathers
prized so highly! "We" who eliminate
negroes at home, weep for the elimin
ation of tnose abroad. They who
"love F. M. Simmons for the "enemies
he has made" rmist also stand in awe
struck admiration of hlnx for his devo
tion to the principles of the republic
end their application to the negroes
. in the Philippine islands. Mr. Sim
. nons -gave further notice that he la
"heart and soul for every single plank
The stock of KID GLOVES we carry would
do justice to a large metropolis. The celebrated
Centemeri Kid Gloves stand without a peer. We
have them in blacks, whites and the latest fall
shades in glace and suede. ,A new feature is their
Washable Glace Kids in all colors, which can
be washed with water and ordinary soap. We also
have a ? line of Kid Gloves at 89c; a guaranteed
Glove for gt. 25, in colors and black; Misses' Kid
Gloves in, large assortment.
3 : BON MARCHE. is south Mam st
of the Kansas City platform." With
some people 4Jt tatoneor a re
pudiation of the United States constitu
ion. Mr. Simmons aid he was "proud
er than ever of the ;reat leader (Bry
an) ; he stands today tfie first dftzen of
the land; "first ln wisara9 f breadtii
of power and moral grasp, the peer of
any man1 living- in the world today.''
Now if Col. -Bryan wouiaeadorse the
Simmons' law and North Carolina red
shirt militarism, we could regard the
demoaguinaldite national campain as
inaugurated in this state.
Cleveland's former cabinet does not
support Bryan to rany great extent.
John G. Carlisle was elected "last week
to the presidency of the lawyers'
Sound Money Campaign club, and Wil
son S. Bissell and Daniel S. Damont
are as firm in their advocacy of the
gold standard and in their opposition
to Bryanism as Mr. Carlisle. Nor is
Mr. Carlisle the only democratic lawyer
in the new Sound Money club. He is
associated with Wheeler H. Peckham,
Franklin Barrett, George C. Rives,
George Hoadley, Francis Lynde Stet
son and other men of prominence who
vote the democratic ticket when, as
the Times says, there is a democratic
platform.
The Swiss republic has a standing
army that is forty times as large as
ours proportionately to the population.
It also has the referendum and sever
al other things, but no signs of a war
or an empire. The United States is not
the only successful republic on eaTth.
In answer to Bryan's declaration that
the republican party claims credit for
beneficial acts of Providence, Roose
velt .says he is willing to admit a fusion
of the party with Providence but he
never knew of the democratic party
having acted with Providence.
Dr. Mac Arthur, the well known Bap
tist minister, in speaking of Chinese
misisons, said he doubted if China had
an (organization so vile as Tammany.
He might also have mentioned the
North Carolina red shirt (boxers.
The news from China indicates that
the empress doesn't mind beheading a
few officials if a little thing like that
is necessary in order to be let alone.
Four weeks from today the national
campaign of 1900 will be a thing of the
past.
That was a rousing reception that
Roosevelt had in Lincoln, Neo.
t
A man out west gives bankers a tip
for making a tidy sum of money in
case Bryan is elected. The (plan is as
follows:
In October of 1900 a certain banker,
having $106,000 on deposit In his bank
and believing Mr. Bryan will be elect
ed, takes the $106,000 to Wall street, and
purchases 200,000 Mexican silver dollars
for 53 cents each each of these heavier
and finer than the American silver dol
lar. 'He then stores his Mexican silver
dollars in his vaults.
In March, 1901, Mr. Bryan being pres
ident, and a free silver coinagejaw en
acted, the banker takes1 his 200,000
Mexican isilver dollars to the United
States mint and has them coined into
200.000 American silver dollars!
He then issues a notice to the depos
itors to meet him in the bank and ad
dresses them as follows: "My friends
and depositors, you, have to your credit
in my 1ank $106,000, and as I intend to
retire fromi business I herewith give
you your $106,000 in bright, new Amer
ican silver dollars and you will note
that I have 194,000 left for myself! Be
fore I start on my pleasure trip to Eu
rope kindly tell me whom I shall thank
for this handsome present?"
In the year 1896 the average attend
ance in tfhe public schools of this coun
try wasi 9,747,015, for whom 400,325
teachers 'were employed, alt an expense
of $116,377,778, tne -total outlay for edu
cation iin. public schools being $184,453,-
780. In 1897 there was an average dally
attendance of 10,089,620 children there
were 403,333 teachers, officers, and 'teach
ers were paid $119,303,542, and ithe whole
expenditure for public school mainte
nance was $187,320,602. In 1898 they lhad
10,286,092 daily attendamce, 409,193 of
fleers and teachers were employed to
conduct them, at $123,809,412, and the
whole cost of public schools was $194,
020,470. The Washington Post thinks the ap
pearance of Sixto Uopez, the Filipino
emissary, in this counitry is umttimely,
to say the least, aind says: "He will
do the cause of the Filipinos no good
and. most certainly will iprove an em
barrassment to the democrats In Ithe
further exploitation of Hheir paramount
issue. The manifestos' whldh he has
issued5 from Uondon have natural ly
fallen flat. If our democrattic frietad
have brought hfan here and it is 'dif
ficult to credit such a theory they can
not too soon send him hack to London."

STATE POLITICS.
t At the regular , meeting of the Mc
Kinley and Roosevelt club of Hickory
tomorrow night, Prof, J. J. Britt,
of Bakersville, will address the club
on the issues of the day
Your sins will find you out, Mr. Sim
mons, but if you can use your ma
chinery against Garr and Waddell, as
successfully as you used It against the
republicans, your chances are good for
an election whether you enjoy fruits
of fraud, intimidation, redshirtdsm, or
not. 'Davie Record.
There are only 12,369 white voters In
Edgecombe county, yet that county
went democratic (?) in august by 8,500
majority. Now, the question arises,
will the Carr and Simmonsi vote com
bined in Edgeoomibe (be 2,369, or will
they still have that 3,500 majority? Will
they have all the "niggers" down, there
to go democratic (?) again? If the com
bined vote is only 2,369, will they not
show to what extent fraud and vote
stealing were practised? The Cauca
sian. When J. B. Fortune, Independent (?)
candidate for congress, went to fill his
appointment to sipeak at Boiling
Springs, Cleveland county, he only
found six persons present, and as they
all said they were Buxton demiocrats
the ex-postmaster, ex-senator, ex-
clerk, etc., decided not to speak. Ver
ily, how time changes all things.
Time was when Fortune could draw a
larger crowd than any republican in
Cleveland county. Hickory Press.

(this paper on the tactics of party man

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE-
Editor of the Gazette:
J "A41 know tfeafc la OixisiaaiHscljfcnce
the patient and praxrtltiooer' depend on
and trust God and: God alone for the
healing !: of "he ; body1' - ia& well as
the casting outt of in. Can ft be more
inf ui to die trusting God than it is to
die trusting some one 'else than God?
Can the one who advises Ithe implicit
trust in God toe more sinful than the
one -who advises Implicit trust In some
thing less than God?"
The above paragraph, consti tuK.es the
gist of the defense or explanation of
Mary Hatch Harrison the Christian
Scientist who was in attendance on
the child, Henry Parson's, previous tto
his death . It seems strange that
sophims so apparent should pass
unchallenged, or that intelligent peo
ple for a moment should be deceived
by them. Carried (to its logical comp
el us km the inference from Miss Har
rison's statements would be that al
though God has provided means for the
accamplishment of certain ends He is
not so much honored by having His
children sltudy those means amd use
them for the maintenance or restora
tion of health as by having thein ig
nore the means and appeal to Him di
rectly to act independently -f them.
In other worda, they assume 'that God
prefers to work through 'miracles thairu
Sn accordance with .the ordinary laws of
nalture, although 'the experience of the
race contradicts this assumption. If
one is suffering from1 thirst the Scient
ists do not advise him! "to truslt God
and God alone" for relief, while refus
ing the water everywhere provided.
They forget that the same God who
supplies water to abundance for daily
needs also caused the bearing Itlhin'gs to
grow "whose leaves are fo'r the healing
of the nations." To learn the proper
ties of these mere remedial things to
investigate to experimenk in the whole
realm of nature, animal, vegetable and
mimeral, surely this is legitimate and
praiseworthy and implies no distrust of
Him who made all bhangs. If it is mot
impious .to "depend On" the drink of
water when one is thirsty, neither is it
wrong to look for relief from other ills
land discomforts in nature's grealt labo
ratory. To repudiate these good -gifts,
to condemn them all as "drugs" and
nostrums is neither wise nor logical.
There seems to be no reasonable ground
for confidence thalt when one ignores
natural law, trusting that a miracle will
save him from the results of his acts,
that wiH be justified. He who ' casks
himself from the cliff is not so wise as
he who, recograizing his limitations,
walks down the mountain side with
care and courage. Trust in Cod is
shown by trust in ithe conditions
He has enforced rather than in our
own ability to override them or His
desire to have us attempt to do so.
E . H . C
TEA IH CHINA.
Tea growing, which forms one of
China's most important industries,
gives employment to thousands of wo-in-yen.
This useful plant is not cultivat
ed in tea gardeajs, as in India, but in
patches on sloping iground, where it
iwill receive plenty of moisture. Tea
grows in China to a height of about
three feelt and the first picking is the
most important; it consists mainly of
young leaves, covered iwiith a iwhltish!
down, called iim Chinese pekoe, while
souchong means small or rare variety:
congoo, worked, from being well work
ed in 'the after preparation, and Bohea,
from (the locality.
Great care must be taken not to in
jure the plant, and thus spoil the raext
props. Womemi and children strip the
I twigs and can pick about fifteen pounds
fir-day. The 'leaves are spread on shal
low trays to dry off the moisture; they
are then thrown on to .the hot pans for
five minutes and rolled, on ratKan ta
bles before being exposed out of doors
for a few hours, durilnig which, they are
carefully watched, turned and opened
out. The process' is repeated a second
time and the leaves are then dry and!
dark. Different kinds of flowers sni
as roses, orange blossom, jasmine and
gardenias, are used to scent the tea.
Like the French, the Chinese have
but two regular meals in the day, one
at 8 or 10 in the morning, the other at
5 or 6. There are numerous dainties on
the ttable, which are eaten with the chop
sticks, and -tea is the-beverage. The
Chinese some times make their tea in
teapots, much as we do, but they also
frequently make it separately, ' direct
ly in each cup, throwing in a few! leaves
and pouring on .them 'the boiling water.
The cups, which are as large as our
breakfast cups, are provided with' lids,
which are left on while the :ea is
brewing. Pipes are smoked at inter
vals during 'the meals. Chicago News.
ROBBED THE GRAVE.
A startling incident is narrated by
John Oliver, of Philadelphia, as fol
lows: "I was in an awful condition.
My skin was almost yellow, eyes sun
ken, tongue coated, pain continually in
back and sides, no appetite, growling
(weaker day by day. Three physicians
had given me up. Then I was advised
to use Electric Bitters ; to my greato joy,
the first bottle made a decided improve
ment. I continued their use for Ithree
weeks, and am now a well man. I
know they robbed the grave of another
victim. No one should fail to try
them. Only 50c, guaranteed, at all
