Thanksgiving and Thankslivin q
T have road the account of a
long, rainy afternoon, at the
end of which the sun came out
brightly. Atid of a dog who
straightway moved from his
place in the shadow to a spot
where the delayed sunshine was
••.lie brightest.
A childish simple story? Yes;
but none the less is it a com
plete parable of thanksgiving.
Your life may conta n only a
square yard of sunshine, and!
that iate in arriving. Never
mind; move promptly into it,
and stay there!
lint in reality, every life con
tains far more than one spot of
sunshine. Hunt them out, and
and you will be rich in a new
kind of gold, that thieves can
not steal.
Not everyone has eyes for th * |
sunshine. There is a new meth-;
od of separating iron partcles'
from the soil in which they are
imbeded. The dirt is simply,
thrown up against a great mag
net, which holds the and lets j
the soil fail back. Tins'process ;
is transforming into an iron
mine many a league of worth
less clay, and is earning vast
wealth for its inventors. The
magnet is a kind of an eye that
sees the eye in the clay, and
nothing but the iron. Get such
a power for for your soul, audi
use it to search out subjects fori
thanksgiving.
Few persons realize the value j
in mere dollars and cents, of
the power of praise. A cheer
ful grateful disposition will save
you many a doctors bill, make'
you many a friend, carry you
triumphantly over many a diffi
cultv, enable you to do far more
work, and do all your work in
the best way. Taking tWo men
of equal powers and opportuni-,
ties, one sunshiny and the other
morose, the first will probably
succeed and the second probably
fail.
Thanksgiving is far more a
cultivated habit than a grace of
nature. Some men, to be sure,
find it easier than others to be
thankful and happy; but all
men, if they sedulously cherish
the good they can see in their
live*, will speedily see more
good to cherish, and the blessed
process will go on at a rapidly
increasing rate, an endless
chain of thanksgiving.
If you once get a start in this
blessed habit of thanksgiving,
there is no finer method of in
creasing your joy than by giv
ing some one else a cause for
gratitude.
The best thing a heart that is
thankful can do
Is this : to make thankful some
other heart too.
Indeed, true thanksgiving
cannot help radiating out in
thanksliving. It is like a fire,
so far as it can.
Then this gratitude that you
start in other lives by your
kindness reacts on your own, so
that you have entered upon a
stcoud endless chain of thanks
giving, and youi" heart leaps
with joy every time you think
of the jov of that other life.
These," after all, are the bless
ings most worthy to remember
on Thanksgiving Day—the pow
er to help others, the love of
our fellowmen. the happy ap
proval of (jod. All harvests in
the natural world are dust and
ashes compared with these
fruits of the Spirit. —Amos R.
Wells.

Hazing is always cowardly,
because the victim is overpow
ered by numbers and taken at
disadvantage when he has no
chance of resistance. It is ut
terly lawless and brutal because
it violates the sanctity of the
victim's person and subjects
him to gross indignity, to which
no man willingly submits so
long as he has any chance of re
sistance. From whatever
standpoint it is viewed hazing
is detestable, and it is particu-.
larlv demoralizing because it

Simmons Retires.
j We clip the following from
the News & Observer of the oth
We think every Democrat in the
St e should read it, and not
fo _;et the ability aud splendid
) so vices of Mr. Simmons. It
I reads:
, The victory of yesterday
closed the almost continuous po
' litical campaign that began in
North Carolina upon the meet
ing of the State Convention in
Raleigh in the summer of 1898.
There has been no such political
period except when the white
people of the State thirty years
ago rescued the State from the
carpet-bag aud negro govern
ment. When the 1898 cam
paign opened every branch of
the State government was in
> the hands of the Re-pop-li-cans. j
At the previous election they
had carried the State by nearly ;
40,000 majority and thought!
they were too strongly entrench- j
ed to be driven from power.
The Democrats, recollecting his
successful service as Stale chair
man in 1892, elected Hon. F.
M. Simmons as State Chairman,
surrounded, cheered and help
ed by able and courageeus men,
who were ready to make any
sacrifices to redeem the St;.t •,
Mr. Simmons effected the best
organization, put hope into the
hearts of the people, and after
the most strenuous campaign
since the Ku Klux Klau days,!
the white people of the State re
turned to their own. The shouts
of victory had scarcely died out
before the leaders of the party
saw that unless some measure i
to eliminate the ignorant negro!]
vote could be devised, results of ,
the victory would be only tern- ,
porary. They began at once to (
study the Mississippi, the South (
Carolina, the Louisiana plans of ,
constitutional suffrage regula- j,
tion. When the Legislature j t
met the amendment u ndcr ! (
which tlie people voted yester-',
day for the first time was sub- |
mitted to the people for ratiti- j,
cation. The campaign upcn!
the adoption of that attend- '
ment was hotly contested. The j
allied Republican and Populist ! c
parties exerted every effort tojf
defeat the amendment. Thev j f
declared it was unconstitutional ! f
vicious, unjust; they told the j j
illiterate white voters that the j t
amendment would disfranchise [ c
them, and hundreds were de- j,
ceived by their misrepresenta- : ,
tion. That was no time to 1 c
change the management of the ',
State campaign and by unani- .
inous vote Mr. Simmons was .
re-elected chairman. But the (
amendment was adopted by j
more than 50,000 majority, to (
go into effect on the first of Ju- ,
ly, 1902. Even then there were i
many who doubted that it ,
would accomplish the purpose ;
for which it was devised and j
ratified. The success of the |,
amendment was an open ques- j
tion. The same agencies that
had directed the 1898 and 1900 ,
campaigns were best fitted to ,
complete the work by conduct
iig the first campaign under j
the amendment. And so, with .
one accord, the people called .
Senator Simmons again to be ,
State Chairman. lie was will- '
iug and ready. As in former ,
campaigns he gave his whole
time and thought to winning
the magnificent victory.
On Monday night, in his speech
in Greensboro, Mr. Simmons (
reviewed the continuous cam
paign begun in 1898 which end
ed yesterday, and said :
•'ln 1898 we regained con
trol of the legislative depart
ment of the government. In
1900 we regained control of the
Executive department of the
government. To-morrow we
will regain control of the Judi
cial department of the govern
ment, and the Constitutional
amendment, the Magna Chart a
of white supremacy, will be es
tablished by a majority so great
that no man in North Carolina

pious hands upon it. When tc

!me to represent you in the

man of your committee I have
I given you my best eil'orts. As
iyour Senator you are entitled to
j receive and, God being my help
'er, you shall receive my best ef
forts. When my work hero is
finished, when I have retired
"from the convicts of life, I sha 1
not remember with most pleas
ure the fact that my fellow
i countryman have made me rep
resentative an d Senator, as
i proud and grateful as I shall ev
,erbo of these great honors and
distinctions. My gieatest
pleasure in connection with my
public work—the proudest lega
cy save that of an honorable
life—which I shall leave to my
children, will be the fact that,
when the State was to be saved
from the Plutonian night into
which it had passed, I was cho
sen by my countrymen to lead
in the crusade for redemption
1 and at your command I took
into my hands your white and
stainless banner and, with the
aid of one hundred and eighty
thousand true and loyal white
men, we planted it upon the
highest rampart of victory,
where it will stay as long as the
white men of North Carolina
and their descendants shall con
tinue to love and cherish home
and altar and fire-side."
Until Mr. Simmons had con
ducted the first election under
the amendment the wisest party 7
leaders would not have consent
ed to his retirement as State
Chairman. It is never safe to
change horses while crossing a
-stream. The campaign of 1902
1900 and 1898 was only one
campaign -it began with the
avowed determination to elimi
nate the negro as an important
factor in politics. The victories
of 1898 and 1900 would have
been barren but for tho demon
stration yesterday that the plans
of the party had all been suc
cessfully consumated. No oth
er man was so well qualified by
experience and knowledge of po
litical conditions as well as gen
ius for organization, to com
plete this work as Senator Sim
mons. Now that he has finish
ed the great work committed to
i him, it is fitting that he should
I be relieved of the arduous duties
; and that another true and tried
I Democrat should be selected as
; State Chairman.
