This cry of the democrats
that the next election - will set
tle the fate of: the people,: and
that unless democracy is suc
cessful it will be useless to try
any. further to perpetuate a free
government ' is the rottenest
kind of tommy rot. We have
heard that same old story for
twenty ?y ears, our father, heard
it before! us. 5 It indicates' dem
agogism and weakness in the
upper story , and at ? this, time tit
is being worked by the demo
crats' simply because they have
nothing as an issue upon which
to come before the people.
When you hear a democrat
spouting off about the republi
cans favoring,, encouraging or
fostering trusts, j ust , remiud
him of this simple fact : . Sena
tor Jones offered an amende
ment to the Porto Rican Tariff
bill to return the duties on sug-
ar imported from that island"to
the persons from whom they
administer the laws. The dem
ocratic party of North Caroline
made a fine start in that dircc
tion when it boldly took . f rc

in the officials of the election

Phantom's party has done in
North Carolina, would not hes
itate to stifle or deny the right
of the public press, if it had the
power to do so. v Phantom's
"baldheaded lie" charge doesn't
cut much ice. Two years ago
we told the people that if the
democrats got control of the
legislature that they would pass
a disfranchising law. Phan
tom's party told us we were '
"bald headed" liars for saying
so. Now when you call upon
Phantom or any 'other demo-
crat for an explanation of these
things the only answer you get
were collected. " The sugar
trust had paid $637,551 of these is : Nigger, nigger, nigger. Let ..
