President McKinley issues his
Thanksgiving Proclamation to ob
serve Thursday, November 24th, as
a day of devout prayer and thanks
giving for the many blessings tnai
God lm vouchsafed to x us during
the year. The greatest of these to
North Carolina is the great.Tictory
that our people have gained in the
ate vital political contest.
The enemies of our peace and
happmesss aro routed and driven to
hidinjr. We hear of pome unwise
declarations, but it is as much the
part of the defeated to be quiet in
defeat as for victors to be magnani
mous in victory. We do not coun
sel violence but if any of the pie
suckers aro so shameless as to pro
claim the infamy of their treason,
thev should be ostracised and scat
tered by all decent white men.
Mr. D. T. Gallop, traveling sales
man for the wholesale grocery house
of Robinson & Co., is in in luck. He
is in receipt of a handsome gold
watch presented to him by tne Aic
Cam Manufacturing Co., of Macon,
Ga-, the .maker of Magic .Cleaner
Soap. The sale of this soap has in
creased so .rapidly of late that Mr.
Gallop sold nearly two car loads
within nine weeks to the retail trade
in a limited territory.

Ve can all tako a rest. North
Carolina is a dear old State to live
in. Our civilization is safe. Our
homes are safe, and the negro pop
ulation is safe now and more con-
tpntnd than at any time since the
war. Three cheers and thanks to

in our annals. The meeting, was
addressed by JudgeAlhprtson; Prof.

Altho there was evident gratification
on all faces, there was rip undue dis-

ht lliafe there would be no furthef

of northern birth in which patriotism
above party and all "other con
siderations were submerged j to the
safety of :home and the good of

words were used to the citizens of
