THE
AMENDMENT MEANS A BLESS
No poor white mau, no unletter
ed white man io all Ftortb Car 6
Una will be touched or in any way
affected by the franchise amend
ment. It is a lie "ontof the whole
cloth to say otherwise. Pay . yoor
poll tax and your right of bo ff rage
will never be interfered with in
the least degree. The criminal
class will be excluded from the
ballot as they ought to be, remarks
the Wilmington Messenger.
The rapid growth of public sen.
timent in the south against un
bridled and free negro suffrage is
directly traceable to the manner
in which the negroes have borne
he EdeeJTes,- their long-continued
and pertinacious hostility to the
whites who pay 96 2 5 of the public
taxes, and who have been made to
sutTer through the bad legislation
and worse government of radical
white officials . who have been
placed in control by negro votes.
The evil tendencies of negro suf
frage so long borne and suffered,
have simply compelled the white
men to get together to seek relief..
The amendment is the ' outcome.
and it will be passed. Whereyer
an educational test has been tried
iu the south it has brought no lit
tle relief and great comfort.
Things have marvellously changed
n those states that have already
restricted negro suffrage. The
tendency in North Carolina and
other states not hitherto using a
restrictive ballot has been to an in
crease of evils. Wilmington is a
most pronounced,' conspicuous ex
ample of the growth of evil with
an increase oT crime and con
sequent lawlessness. It. took a
grand, united white man's ' rally
and 2,500 repeating rifles to re
establish law and put in motion
the great building activity and
the improvements now on hand.
No city or community can be at
peace and have safety and protec
tion save only with the establish
ing of-Arm government and the
maintenance of law. No outrages
of any kind upon any citizen, "old
or young, white or black, should
be allowed to go unpunished. If
there are such instances of care
lessness it is the doty of the city
government to suppress them.
Otherwise there may be trouble.
The amendment is all right. It
will in the end prove a great bless
ing to North Carolina. It will ad
vance civilization, it will increase
education, it will attract capital,
it will set in motion many enter
prises that will be of much service
to the poorer classes, it will estab
lish on firm foundations the reign
of law and honest,, and peaceable
and good, government. So do not
be afraid of the amendment. It
is in fact the honest, industrious
poor.man'a friend. With white
sup'remacyi which means white
map's government, there- will be
just and economical rule, and . a
better feeling between the races.
In time te oome when all party
feeling has died away and ever
thing settled down, men who yote
against white supremacy wilL re
gret it. The white people . are
bound to rule. The negro is the
white man'B burdenXThen it is
plain as day that the white man
who votes against white supremacy
is making an awful mistake and
see it he will. He may not see it
ill his little son or his little daugh
ter grows up and begins the study
of history. In future years they
are sure to ask their father which
side he took in the memorable abd
historical fighfof 1900, in which
the main ; issue was: Shall the
white men role or shall the blacks
rule? When this comes the whits
man who voted against bis race
will feel bad. For be will then
see that ,in this' contest he was
called upon to put faith in the
whites or to put faith in the
blacks, and that he was so blinded
by partisan politics that he went

111 b II CHARACTER.
i
1
There is something inspiring in
the respect that all men to
thosu among tbem who are spon
taneously and generally recognized
as being of high character, i There
are very many men of good charac
ter who are re spected or admired
by those familiar with them, but
who have not established such re
putation as to inpire generel confi
dence. They may be entitled to
the distinction that comes to men J
of high character, but they are not
sufficiently well known to command
general admiration. Once in a
great while, however, an honest,
sincere man is drawn into the pub
lic view. If he can withstand '-the
fierce light that beats upon 'a
throne" or appear in that light to
be without moral fault he becomes
a popular ; idol, for men : respect
moral ag weU
as inlelectual or
physical force. Moreoyer, a man
of high character is
generally
strong in other ways. .
l Honesty and sincerity of purpose
are virtues common to the great
majority of men. They become of
vital force only when joined with
intellectuality and indomitable
will power, and to sustain; these a
strong body is heeded- The. man
who is eminent alike for his moral
force, his intelligence and his vi
rility is out of the ordinary, and
if circumstances should bring him
into public notice he is sure to in
spire respeet or awaken a i warmer
feeling of regard. It is creditable
10 oumanity that men ot unques
tionably hign character thus
oiy nign character thus in-
admiration and become lead-
spire
ers among men. The influence of
their example is beneficent, and
they arouse in us an admiration
for virtue itself.
Hero worship is not confined to
worship of the individual; it im
plies admiration for the qualities
that make the - hero, and ' these
qualities are not dlways prowess
in battle or intellectual force; they
are sometimes, and preferably,
moral qualities. And no man can
admire these qualities without the
desire to develop them' within
himself. He may not be able to
do so to an extent as to make him
prominet among men, but the de
sire itself to be honest, fearless,
forceful, an agent of good, the
enemy of wrong and injustice,' is

IS IT RIGHT !
For an Editor to Recommend Patent
" Medicines?
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevar J, N. C.
It may he a question whether the editor of
a newspaper baa the right to publicly re
commend any of the various proprietary
medicine which flood the market, yet aa a
preventive of suffering we feel it a duty to say
a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known
and need this medicine ia our family for
twenty years and have alwava found it re
liable. In many cases a cose of this rem
edy would saye hours ef. suffering while a
physician is awaited. We do not believe in
depending implicitly on any medicine for a
cure, but we do believe, tnat u a nottie 01
Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy, were Wpt
on hand and administered at the inception
of an attack much suffering might be
avoided and in verv many cases the pres
ence of a physician would not be required'

. Mr. H. F. Freeman, of Wilson coun
ty, was one ol the organizers of the
Populist party In this State. He has
been a Populist ever since, and was of
sufficient prominece to be elected one
of the Bryan electors in 1896. But he
doesn't wear anybody's collar and
hence, like many olher honest Popu

and declares himself a supDorter of

not refuse to vofe for the amendment,
for education is one of their funda

"The black man should not vote in
the United States, and especially in
those States where he is so numerous
as to bold the balance of power. .The
white man, God's best and biebest

to govern himself. He is not needed

was needed, he is not httcd."
Here are numerous reasons bunched
together why he supports the amend

gument enough for any reasonable
person, .who is honestly desirous of
promoting the welfare of his State and
people, white and black.
Populists like Marion Butler, who
are opposing the amendment for selfish
