Pritchacd 's Subterfuge.
Senator Pritchard has the
reputation i:s some quarters of
being an able exponent of the
Republican principles. In some
respecis he is, tint is, if chican
ery, duplicity, pretence, and as
sumption be evidences of ability.
The spokesman of any party,
who aspires to more than the
demagogue's role, should be
frank and honest, and scorn to
resort to subterfuge, o # r chican
ery, and this Senator Pritchard
does not do. As an .illustration
note the deceitful role ho plays
when deprecating the fact that
the negro question lias been
raised in this campaign. lie
•i.ays it should not have been
raised because leading Demo
crats when the Constitutional
amendment was undtr discus
sion said that its adoption
would eliminate the negro from'
politics and make this a white
man's government. Democrats
admit, that the Amendment wil 1 ;
go far to eliminate tho negro as i
o ~ j
a potent factor in politics, pro
vided the Constitutional A mend-!
mem stands, and the IL'publi- 1
can party acct-pts it in go li
faith as a solution of that ones-;
tion.
I>ut when Senator Pritchard
is asked if he as a representa
tive of the Republican party *o j
accepts it in good faiili, does he;
answer frankly? No ; he dod-.
ges bjbind a subterfuge and an
swers that many prominent
Democratic lawyers of the State
had signed a paper declaring!
that in their opinion the amend-;
ment was constitutional and
I would stand the test. Now, he
j says "if they were right and]
j meant what they said, that set-]
| ties the question." lie does!
| not admit that they were right, ]
or that he believes that settles
ti.e question, and says not a
word to commit him, or his par
ty. to the Amendment as a set
tlement. And yet by his words
hejtries to make the impression
that the question is settled ;n 1
that no attempt may be made
|to have that Amendment set
i aside.
If he were dealing with this
j question honestly he would an
j swer when asked the question
las to how he stands either 'yes'
lor ."no," wiihout equivocation
or sybterl'uge, and then the peo
ple would kno v where he stands
on that questi i, which no hu-'
man being n w knows from
anything he h s said in public.

Democratic Platform.
Following is the platform
adopted by the Democratic State
Convention at Greensboro, at its
se.s>ir>n on July 10, 1002 :
"We congratulate the people
'j of North Carolina upon the
I adoption of the suffrage amend
* j-ment to our State constitution
r j and upon the benefits that have
resulted therefrom and we
pledge the Demoera'ic party to
faithfully maintain it by every
ligitiniate means .and we de
mand that the Republican party
shall declare its purpose cither
to accept or reject .it, and until
it is accepted as a finality bv
all yrarties we declare it the duty
of the white people to stand to
gether for its protection.
4 "The Democratic party rep
resenting the intelligence, the
virtue and the manhood of the
people of the State, recalls with
pleasure the entire absence of
scandals during its ad mi nisi raj
lion of public affairs and the.
gratifying advancement that
has been made amongst us it! '

■ fostered agriculture and pro-!
: moted manufacturing and have!

1 bor. We pledge the patty to a
j/air and just system of taxation
| and we demand that all subjects
)of taxation shall bear the just
laud eq'ial proportion of the bur
jdens of government.
"We renew our pledges for j
j the extension aud improvement j
j of the public schools of the State;
!so that it may keep pace wiilij
j the needs and conditions of the!
] people, and point with pride to
| the great impetus and proga?ssi

■last two years and call atten-l

! for the first time in the history j

'•We affiny our allegiance to
Ihe Democratic party and its i
principles as enunciated in its
national platform. Wo denounce
the policy of imperialism as in
jaugurated by the republican
national administration and de
clare it to be obnoxieus to our
form of government ami fraught
with danger to the existence of
the republic. We denounce as
oppressive and illegal those com
binations of capital known as
trusts and monopole s that stifle
competition, throttle individual
effort and destroy the generous
spirit of rivalry that should
exist in the commercial world.
"We denounce the deceptive
and sordid course of the repub
lican party in congress in furth
ering: iho existence of the trusts
by its refusal to enact legislation
restricting them and enforce in
good faith the existing laws
against them that party being
in full control of all branches of
the government.
"W> denounce the present
iniquitiou-, 'unjust, and tnist
creayng protective tariff, im
posed upon the people .by thfe
Republican party, and demand
its immediate revision, jo the
end that all unjust burdens shall
be removed and especially upon
the necessities of life. Its pro
visions enable the trusts to ex
tort from the. people unreason
able profits and sell their pro
ducts to consumers "at home at
greater prices thah arc charged
for the same goods to the for
eign consumer. We demand,
therefore, that all such tru-t
-made goods be placed on the
free list. We favor the estab
lishment of the Appalachian
Pajk and urge that our senators
and representatives in congress
use their be»T efforts to secure
establishment.
"We again appeal to"the peo
ple with a confidence that it is
only from the Democratic party
that there can be expected an
hottest, capableand efficient ad
mit of the government
of the Stafe and point with pride
to its past history in the admin-
