There are seTeral questions to be determined at the next election, all of them questions of vast impor tance, but gome of them in which -the American people are more Total ly interested than in others. Im perialism figures' as an issue, so does the money question, and bo does civil service, and so do bounties and ' the protective tariff policy, directly or indirectly, and so do trusts. The people are interested in the question of imperialism, finances and the tariff, etc.; but : not In the same . way that they are in the trust question, for this j election is to .decide whether the people or the trusts shall rule. If the people win they will hare some roice in determining the pol icy of the gOTernment on the other questions; if the trusts win they . will rule the government and dio- tate its 'policies, aa : they hare been doing for some years past, but more directly. . The trusts hare figured more or less for seTeral years in public . dis- , cussion; they hare figured more or less in party platforms, but this is - the first campaign in which they - hare been made a direct issue, and the lines drawn between them and the people. We haTe on one side the Democratic . party, as the repre sentative of the people, demanding - the abolition of, trusts, and on the . other side the ' Republican party, , pretending, to ? be the friend of the : people) , opposing them inaperfunc-f- tory;.iOTt.uf riray, while some of the leading men of that party declare . : that there-are : no such things as . trusts. But a far as the Demo cratic party is jconcerned, the issue between the trusts on one side and the people on the other, is clear-cut, and . the . election-; will determine whether the. trusts will rule the people, or the people the trusts. 't. : Heretofore, as we hare remarked, -while the trusts were a subject of more or less discussion, they were not aa issue, t while now they are a , b Turning' issue,' and by many re garded as fii Issue. Heretofore it was not A tral of strength between -. the trusts and -the people, but now it is, and the trusts so regard it and are contributing, to " Hanna's cam-- - paign fund because they realize, that .their lease of life wQIdependT upon" , their success at ths'poll.- If with all that has been said against them, with the numerous and blistering ex posures of their,, extortion and op- - pression of 'th4ipeople, the people fail to condambtherja'atthe polls by rebuking the party that has by iU faroring legislation made trusts possible ax4 tai.for years fostered and buHk them up with that' kind of legitUtionf ' they ' HI naturally construe it as an eTidence . hatTtie - people are r not-cx)ncerne4 in then? operations if .the; do; not .contru it - as an. absolute : endorsement of ticlr methods. They arenoir. on trial as It were, and the success of th e Us publican party will ba deeaed ar verdict!, of acquittal from .the charges made by; the -Democratio party, and a rindi cation at thohands of the people.":t";,-CiC'r: z- Is there any reason to 'suppose if the trusts triumph Mn the coming election the people can wage a suc cessful contest against them some other year, when they are becoming stronger and stronger, and are' now almost irresistible ? l' ;' -'"V Is. there any reason to suppose that the methods they pursue and the derices they resort to to carry elections wilnot be followed in com ing elections if they are successful now and be . as potent in coming elections as they are now? They have in' the past proceeded, in. a somewhat quiet way, showing a pru dent regard for public opinion, and consequently they hare figured in politics only by proxy,through agents and apologists or half way defend ers, but with rictory at the polls, with such a vindication and practi cal endorsement they ' will be em boldened to throw oi their reserve and do openly what they hare been doing under cover. Instead of ask ing for desired legislation under va rious pretexts, they will demand it; instead of employing agents to se cretly plot for and compass the de feat in conventions of men who had made themselves objectionable to them, as they defeated Attorney- General Monnett, of Ohio, they will order their defeat They are a power in Republican conventions now; they will be a more mighty and an irresistible power then. i Practically masters of legislation and of the people they will defy the people, issue their decrees to their servants in legislative hals; they will be a law unto themselves and snap their fingers at the men who criticise their methods or talk of "restraining legislation. The people have their chance now to say whether they or the trusts shall be supreme and the ballots they cast on the day of election will de cide that If they wish to surrender to the trusts they will elect Wm. McKin ley; if they wish to hold the reins of government in their own hands they will eject that peerless tribune and stalwart champion- of the people, Wm. J. Bryan. 'AQTJESTIOr OF FACT. When Assistant Secretary of War, Meiklejohn, rushed to the defence of Mr. McKinley in that Sulu busi ness he didn't help him a bit, for all he said or tried to show was that Mr. McKinley did not approve of the clause of that treaty recognizing slavery in the islands governed by he Sultan with. whom the treaty was made. But it may be noted that Mr. McKinley took no exception to that provision until two months after the treaty, or as Mr. McKinley's friend Grosvenor calls it, the "tem porary argreement" was made. In these two months he had heard from the people in his own and other parties who condemned that treaty and he doubtless thought it was good politics to say some thing about it But whether he approved that clause or not, the fact remains that the clause was in the treaty and is there yet, and that slavery does ex ist in the islands and is protected by this Government It was hardly necessary for Mr. Meiklejohn to say that Mr. McKinley did not "ap prove" of that particular part of the treaty, for he could not approve of it, although he did so practically when he accepted the treaty which Mr. Grosvenor calls an agreement, which acceptance made it "morally binding." In discussing Mr. Meiklejohn's etter the New York Post, a Re publican paper, but opposed to the Philippine grab, gives the President the benefit of his refusal to "approve" but convicts him of failure to do h;s duty by the practical recognition of what he would not "approve." The Post says: "The real question Ll Does slavery exist In the Sulu islands under the Stars and Stripes, in spite of McKin- ey's sayinsr that it would be 'impossi ble by the thirteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States!' To this there can be but one answer. The slaves are there. President Me Sonley may say he does not 'authorize or give the consent or the United States to the existence of slavery in the archipelago,' but what good does that do the slaves T They know that they are held to involuntary servitude. When HeKmley - benevolently says that cannot be under the Constitution;' he simply confesses that the Constitu tion has been made, in so far. null and void, and that he has violated his oath to sustain It" It may be observed that when the treaty was made and caused so much adverse , criticism the- apologists of the administration excused it for recognizing polygamy and slavery by saying that these were recognized in the treaty between the Sultan and Spain and that, this country as the successor in - sovereignty of Spain simply took Spain's place and had in good faith to carry out the treaty with Spain, so that recognizing the "twin relics became a matter not of choice,. ;but-of necessity v , Mr Meiklejohn did hot ; make any. refer ence to this in his letter to Mr. Bryan, and neither did apologist Grosvenor. They are about as badly mixed on that as on the . trust ques tion. 1 '; r ''? ''1 t In the meantime siavery"i? exist In the Sulus; Grosyenor admits that, and is protected by this Government He admits that, too,' for he says- the "agreement is1 morally 'binding," but tries to make light of it .by as- is not a very bad kind of , slavery but on the contrary a rather igooa insti tution," so gdojT that shiftless people sometimes sell themselves to better their ; condition."? J- 7 V 02 OF TffE SSTHODS 07 15TIM- a , ,.;.;' IDATI05. t V ; : . We have heretofore called" atten tion to some of the methods of in timidation resorted to in the-North to deter workingmen from voti-g Bryan. , The . following Rochester, N. Y., dispatch of 12th inst- gives the latest, which reads thus: : i 1 "On the doors of a big? camera fae tory on South street is posted a notice on a circular letter neaa oi we com- Kay with these words .in large let rs: . 1 -; AIT OBJECT LESSON AXD FOOD FOB RE FLECTION FOR OUB WOBKjnCW. v "Appended is a copy of an order from-a Chicsjro supply house for $1780 worm or. gooas, oonciuaiuK wihu umo lines: M 1 "Goads not to bs shipped uatil No vember 10. Order canceled if Mr. Bmn is elected." H&rver B. Carlton, manager and chief stockholder in theosmera com- naor said that he could not make publie the Chicago firm's name with out their permisuon, but he had writ' ten for permission. This is a sample of many of the same kind which are being sent out with the same intention, a repeti tion of the . device which was so much resorted to four years ago and then worked with considerable effect. Of course neither these Chicago fa kirs, nor these Rochester McKinley boomers are honest in this thing, for if these goods had been ordered by this alleged Chicago firm the order would not be cancelled if Bryan is elected, for the election of Bryan is not going to put a stop to the pic ture taking business, and the fellows who stuck that trick notice on their door as an object lesson to intimi date workmen know it, too. Men who would do as mean and con temptible thing as that would steal if they got half a chance. THE PENNSYLVANIA WAY. There is a good deal of talk by Republicans in the North (and in the South too) about fraudulent elections in the South, about the suppression of the negro vote and all that sort of thing, but the moat alert election hustler in the South couldn't hold a candle to the ballot steerers in some' of the Northern States. Pennsylvania is a dyed-in-the-wool Republican State, and Philadelphia is a Republican city. It is only when the Republican fac tions go to warring each other that the Democrats can hope to score a victory of any kind in State or city. How they run the ballot business in Philadelphia, and doubtless also in other cities, is shown by the follow ing clipped from the Philadelphia Record : "The undeniable fact that every year the assessors' list in Philadelphia are so padded as tapsve the way for the eouutia. of more than 80,000 fraudulent votes, that poll taxes -are paid for in order to facilitate votine upon fraudulent names, and that elec tion bDsrdt are manned with seoun drels hired to participate in and per - Ktrate fraud should not be over oked." The Record is a Democratic pa per, Dut similar charges are made in the Philadelphia Press and other Republican papers. The fact is they discuss the frauds more than the Democratic papers do, the or gans or eacn taction accusing tne other of perpetrating them. And yet these and other Republiean'or gans have the gall to lecture South ern Democrats on frauds in the South. The Philadelphia Press rises to re mark that when Mr. Bryan talks about the plans of - MarkHanna to carry the election by fraud and cor ruption he offers an insult to the American people.- Oh, no, but he evidently makes the organs very wrathy by referring to Hanna's pro gramme, uoes any one suppose that Hanna is raising all this money to be honestly expended? Scott McKeown, of California, son of a millionaire railroad man of Pennsylvania, who got away with $400,000 within two years after he came of age, has retired to a ranche to recuperate, minus money and a wife, who left him when the sheriff put in an appearance and took charge of his visible effects. CURRENT COMMENT. Men who interrupt Bryan in his speeches do him a service instead of interfering with him. He is . so quick at repartee that an interrup tion alwayB furnishes him opportu nity to make a good point. Augusta (Jnronicle, JJem.

Charlotte Observer: Badger and Robert Bryant, of Providence township, have made a contract to furnish a Charlotte man thirty game coeks at $3.50 each, making a sum of $76. The chickens will be shipped to points in Pennsylvania and Mexico. The Bryant brothers raise several huodred chickens every year. Salisbury Sun: A child of Mr. W. li. Ludwick was bitten on the arm yesterday by a worm and as a result the little one was unconscious for three hours. The bite was treated as a snake bile would have been, and the child was finally brought around all right The worm was captured and piacea in a bottle. It wtsbroueht to town to day and left at the Sun office for iden tification. v It is about an inch long, dark in color and has far which re sembles feathers. Lumberton Argus: Dr. B. F. Lewis went to Bed Springs Sunday morning to hold an inquest over the body of Anthony Stan back, colored, who died Saturday night It will be remembered that Stan back was ahot by a white man named Sterling Smith about three weeks ago. The coroner's jury returned a verdict that Stanback came to his death from a pistol shot from the hands of Sterling Smith. Smith has not been captured. Fayetteville Observer : There was great excitement near the silk mill Friday night. Watchman Tew, and the inhabitants thereabouts, heard a strange noise, which they took to be the roaring of a lion or a bear. The watchman tired a number of snots in the direction from which the noise came, but it did not cease. The county authorities were telephoned for and several deputy sheriffs spent half the night in searching ror the supposed wild beast .Deputy Sheriff Skipper tiys he thinks it was an alligator in the pond near by. Tarboro Southerner: Thomas H. Gatlin, Jr., civil engineer, reports that the progress of the work on the Great Eastern- R. It. is satisfac tory. The Eagle Construction Co., of Toledo, O., has the contract to build and completely equip the line, and the sub-contracts made by them with vari ous outfits assure its completion by March 1st, 1901. The section from Fremont to Snow Hill is about half graded. The line will be constructed from Ualeigh to Knglehard. in uyde county, on the Pamlico Sound, a dis tance of 167 miles. Raleigh Post: Kennie Mclver (white,) aged about 35 years was shot and killed Monday afternoon at Sanford? by J. P. Scott special policeman. There was great excite ment and further trouble was antici pated for some time. Although the affair happened in broad daylight and in the presence of a large number of witnesses, there are various versions of it differing so much in important particulars, that it would be unwise just now to attempt to give particular. The Post correspondent has inter viewed a dozen eye witnesses, and nearly all differ as to certain material facts. Nothing but a judicial investi gation will disclose the truth, even if that does. Town Marshal retty was cat Mclver was killed instantly by a shot from a pistol in the hands of J. P. Scott or by subsequent treatment Culpability is variously placed. Scott is in custody and it is reported that retty has has been arrested also.
