II Holt, Jr, the youog cotton manufacturer who re cently. went over to the Republican party because he was an advocate of rotection and was made a delegate to the St. Louis convention, is in this, city to-day by chance, and here met and viewed the returning Republican forces from the State convention that last night nominated Russell for Gov ernor. In consequence he published this afternoon in the Goldsboro Daily Argus the following letter which f peaks for itse'f : ; Editor Argue: It is an old eaying but a true one that "self preservation is the first law of nature." Actin on this principle from a mistaken standpoint of view, as to in what con sisted my preservation as a purely business question, I have of late lent my aid and itflaenee to the further ance of the policy of protection cham pioned by McKiuley and advocated by the Republican party and I have gone so far as to permit myself to be named as a delegate from the Fifth, my resident district, to the St. Lcuis National Republican convention But, Mr. Editor, to-day in the city of Goldsboro on my way home from the session of the Mystic Shrine in New born, I am greeted by a scene that gives me pause and deeper reflection than heretofore. I have read of the Ecenes "and ex peritnees of GS as we read of other dark epochs in history, but, reared iaee that time, growing up under the benign influence of Democracy and enjoying only the pacific blessings and elevating experience that apper Win to its supremacy, I could not com prebend wh'at "the men of old" en dured, nor could my mind formulate a picture so dark as their words paint ed. But to-day in Goldsboro I am .able to tpproximate from what Bern ccracy has delivered the State and to what we are again tending. I am greeted here by a seething, surging mass of conglomerated humanity, howling negroes and exultant white men, arm in aim, bearing aloft a ban ner with the painted picture of "D L. Russell, our choice" for Governor and with McKinley badges "on the aide." And this is the party with which I havo become allied and to this belongs the negro and all with which I am to consort at St. Louis. 'My God, Abernethy!" Never. I hereby recant, abjure, abhor my affil iation witk this party that fosters and glories ib such scenes in North Caro lina. I believe, Mr. Editor, in honest money, sound money, if you will, honest values and in "our" turn at protection to the infant manufacturing industries of the South. But what would industry, however much ex erted, amount to in a State dominated by Russell and his mob of howling eavagts? Yes, Mr. Editor, there is protection and there is protection, and for that greater protection I here- Louis convention, renounce my affili ation with the Republican party, only just begun, I am happy to say, and return an .humble but earnest worker in the ranks of Democracy for white supremacy in North Carolina, good government economically administered and home protection. Very truly, J. H. Holt, Jr. News and Observer. War with Spain seems to be more iminent now than ever. Five Amer icans who have been caught by the Spanish authorities on the competitor, a vessel charged with carrying weap on of war to the Cubans, have been tried by a milliury court in' Havana nd bavebeen condemned to be shot -The United States claim that their trial by court martial is against the treaty with Spain and that she should btkfe given them a civil trial. It Spain murders these men, the United States should send her war ships to Caba at once, and run the last Span Uid off the Island, and if Spain wants to interfere gie her a good thrashing, Jrb:h wt it 9 able. q do. WHEN RUSSELL DIDST WANT NEGRO VOTES. Fourth. While I should pay much on the lice above indicated, 1 would alo be compelled to tell the truth on our own party in the South For instance I would rise to remark that, while as a rule the South does not treat its colored people with the liberality and justice which they re ceive in 'the North, there is yet de fence for the deep and dire determina tion of the Southern white man to never submit to negro rule. THE NEGUOES OF THE SOUTn ARE LARGELY SAVAGES. We with Northern aid and sanction kidnapped them, enslaved them and by most monstrous wrong degraded them so that THEY ARE NO MORE FIT TO GOVERN THAN ARE THEIR BRETHREN IN AFRICAN Slt'AMPS OR SO MANY MONGO LIANS DUMPED DOWN FROM PAGAN ASIA." Permit me also to say that I thick it would be wise for our State ticket to withdraw in favor of the Prohibition.party. In 1881 our vote was thrown to save the grog shops. You paved them; but just what the party gained by it has been so difficult to discover that tho best thinkers among our leaders, who joined in that coalition, now admit their mistake and regret that the- party vote was not given to the temperance people. Suppcse wc try it now and go in to strike at drunkenness and democra cy." From a letter written by Dan iel L. Russell to J. C. L. Harris, Secretary Republican State Executive Committee declining the Republican nomination for Supreme Court Jus tice and published in the Raleigh Signal July 19, 1SSS. "The negro steich is as great as that of the rankest brand of guano." Raleigh Signal, July 21, 1893, edited by J. C. L. Harris, Russell's manager. News and Observer. AN AIRSHIP. Professor Langley, of the Smith sonian Institute at Washington, has for some time been working quietly on an air-ship, and has the backing of some moneyed men who seem to have confidence enough in his suc cess to put considerable money into it. A week or so ago he completed a model about four feet loag, and gave it txo trials some distance below Washington. On the first trial it was in the air a minute and a half and flew 1,000 feet; on the secoEd trial it flaw over half a mile. The Professor pro poses now to construct a practical ma chine, capable of carrying six persons, as soon as he can command such a fund as he deems necessary to carry out the work. The fact that about 50, 000 has baen already furnished, most of it by Professor Alex. Graham Bell, augurs pretty well for securing the necessary money siice these experi ments have . proved so satisfactory. There has been a great deal of work done on air ships within the past few years, some of which hs met with more or less success, but none of the experiments have proved as satisfac tory as these to which we have re ferred. There are people of course who will pronounce aerial navigation a dreamy vision, but there were many incredulous wise men when the first experimental steamboat was put upon the water. Wilmington Star. Some of the Republicans claim that Russell bought the votes which gave him the nomination for Governor. He is in favor of fusion with he Pop- uliato. Uo nnouum;o - to tho iugrueS that when he was a baby he sucked a negro woman and expects to gain their votes on the strength of thij statement. In July. 1888 he wrote: "The negroes ol the South are largely savages. They are no more fit to gov ern than are their brethren in African swamps or so many Mongolians dumped down from Pagan 4Asia." What a change! He made a speech in Raleigh on April the 29th, 189G, to a crowd mostly negroes in which he said: "The negro is a free citizen. I was disfranchised by the Democrats with the negroes. I honor the race and rejoice in their prosperity. 1 want to see them educated and takin their 6tand alongside of their white brethren.... ..I never called the negro savages. I said there were white savages and there were black savages If I am elected Governor I promise you that the naga who put me there shall have all the oats and fodder there'to give." It is more than probable that Ea- al.n1 m Ml 1 " - I . t m g.iuu ifiu ujic war who IDC lTSCS- ( vaal government of South Africa. NORTH CAROLINA POETRY, North Carolina has a literature of her own. North Carolina has a poetry of her own. It is a sad fact, however, that the majority -cf North Carolin ians are unaware of the existence of this poetry, but it does exist and it ought to be in every household with in the State. There is a glamour of poetry about "the good old North State," her hisr tory and her children, such as lingers about the fame of no other State of the original thirteen. The Roanoke Island colony and its mysterious fate; the birth of the little girl, Virginia Dare, on our coast, tho first white child bornii the New World, the very beginning of that superb and splendid womanhood which is the brightest jewel of all the treasures of the re public; the residence amongst us of Flora MacDonald; the history of the State in the Revolution; her unri valled record in tho civil war when she furnished more soldiers than she had voters and lost more men than any other Southern State; the identi ty of the Croatane; storm swept Hat- terap; the. everlasting hills that form the barrier to the West; the death of and search for Elisha Mitchell; the State's wealth of flowers, her silver streams, her alp like landscapes, her golden snnsets, her grand men, her beautiful women all these and manyi other themes offer opportunity to the poet. A most excellent compilation of North Carolina poetry is the volume edited by Rev. li ght C. Moore, en titled "Select Poetry of North Caro lina." We have referred to it more than once before. The only similar work ever published in the State, as we learn from the preface, was"Wood Notes or Carolina Carols," by Mrs. Mary Bayard. Clarke, of Newberne, which appeared in 1S54, "at least two decades before our best poetry was written." Tbe volume of Mr. Moore, published in 1894, is therefore a val- uable one. .The beet portions of Lngel in the Cloud," by E Iwin '-The A W. Fuller, are here to be found, with tho choicest selections from John H. Boner, Mrs. Mary 15ayard Clarfce, Thomas N. Crutnpler, Theo. U. llill, v Christian Reid, Henry Jerome Stock- ard and many others, including, of course, Joseph W. ltolden's superb "Ha'tteras," which -Henry Jerome) Stockard considers peerless among North Carolina poems, and which doubtl. es was, until Prof. Stockard himself won the. favor of the Muse. But Mr. Moore's book has not met whb the reception from the North Carolina reading publio which its mer its entitle it to; ne finds a large num ber of copies upon his hands.

Russell, of Wilmington, was nom inated for Governor on the (Btate ticket. , j Zeb Vance Walser was nominated for Attorney General. Rtff Henderson was nominated for Auditor. ! ' It. M. Douglass was nominated for Associate Justice of , the Supreme Court. ' '! : Tbe state treasurer, secretary of state and superintendent of Public Instruction were not nominated but left open for tho Populist to fill in. These are the offices that are leftiopen for the Populist, which tho Republi cans think they will do and fusejwith them on these terms, the result. We will I wait ' If we can't beat Russell tor pov ernor we can't beat any Repuican. The Republicans put him up belause he favored fusion. The question: now is will they fuse. Senator Butler says no. Will the populist fallow Butler or will they follow Resell who has promised the negroes the majority cf the official foddcrfif be gets in. White men of North Caro lina can you vote for a man like that. We ask you to stop and consider. You have got to come to the parting of the waj3. One leads to a white man's government; the other lcad3 to negro domination. Which will you choose. The Democrats of Illinois will probably carry, that state for free sil ver.
