WEDNESDAY, JAN. 4, 1899.
The Democratic "members of the
legislature met in caucus last night
and agreed upon Judge H. 6. Con-
aor, of Wilson, for speaker of the
House, and Senator R. L. Smith, of
Stanley, president pro tern, of the
Senate. The contest for the speak
ership was spirited, but friendly.
Both branches of the legislature
are composed of a fine . body of men
and they have made a fine impres
sion. .
The city attorney of New Or
leans has stirred up the railroad
men there by stating that the rail-
Toads cannot operate warehouses
under their charters as common
carriers. In other words, although
they can store goods, they cannot
charge for storage, as the compa
nies have all been accustomed to
do, especially i when goods have
been left on their nanaa alter a
certain length of time. Such
practice is in vogue in this state,
and should the New. Orleans at
torney be successful in his conten-
tion the question may be brought
up in North Carolina and many
other states. At any rate the fight
will be watched with interest.
! The purchase of the C. F. & Y.
V. railway by the .Atlantic Coast
Line gives much pleasure to the
people of Greensboro and Guilford
county, for it means much to the
future development of this section.
The Atlantic Coast Line is a great
railway system, controlled and
operated by some of the best rail
road men in the United States.
For years they have been anxious
to secure connection with the great
Northwest, and a few years ago a
road was surveyed from Wades-,
boro, in Anson county, to Winston
with this end in view. The ac
quisition of the C: F. & Y. V. run
ning 'from' the seacoast to the
mountains, not only gives them
this connection, but opens a terri
tory which will be of considerable
importance to the road. We are
assured that, under the new man
agement,. C.F.&fT. V., will be
a first-class road in every particu-
lar. In point or equipment : the
Coast Line is inferior to no road,
and the service they will give will
be second to none.
who are most interested take the
initiative in this natter, going
about it 1 common-sense wayt
and it will be but a few years until
the public roads of Guilford will
be second to those of no county in
the state.
Jv xv address at the emancipa
tion celebration in Raleigh Lion
day Prof. L. B. Capeheart, one of
the most intelligent colored men in
the state, spoke tome plain truths
in regard to the negro and bis fu
ture. He maintained that the
growth and development of the
negro had been hindered rather
than helped by politics, declaring
that "the negro has built upon pol
itics to his ruin.'1 The fact that
such a sentiment as this is gaining
ground among the more intelligent
members of the race speaks vol
times for the future happiness and
prosperity of the negro. Prof.
Capeheart declared that the emi
gration and colonization schemes
were impracticable, and advised
the colored people to remain in the
South and try to make the best of
their lot. He counseled them to
avoid politics, to exercise patience
and moderation, and devote their
time to industrial and educational
development. In regard to the
colonizationists who say : "Let us go
to the North, to our friends, to our
liberators, to the champions of our
rights," the speaker said : "We
answer that it is true the North
-stands for equality of rights in the
South, and' sheds copious tears
over any seeming breach of them,
but at the same time it throws its
countless millions against us when
it comes to. equality of opportuni
ty to earn the "staff of life" within
its own borders. She opens her
doors, bids you welcome, but the
workshops are hermetically sealed
against you. When you come beg
ging she listens attentively to your
plea, and often gives generously to
relieve your suffering, but when
you seek to earn your bread by the
sweat of the brow, in obedience to
the divine injunction, your sphere
is far more limited than in the
South." It is gratifying to know,
that these sentiments, notwith
standing their boldness, were well
received and heartily applauded.

We are pleased to know that the
suggestion in last week's Patriot,
that the proper machinery be pur
chased and the convicts utilized
for macadamizing the public roads;
has met with favor, j Mr. A. B.
Hinshaw, who lives two miles west
of Pomona, was in our office yester
day and stated that he was willing
to devote a.week to hauling crush
ed stone. from the rock crusher to
the roadbed between! Greensboro
and Pomona, the work to be done
at any time when his farm work is
not so pressing as to require hie
presence and attention. Mr. Hin
sh aw is animated by the proper
spirit, and we have reason to be
lieve there are other filled with
the same spirit of progressiveness.
This work can be accomplished
"without any great outlay of money
or levying burdensome taxes. Sev
