Tbe amendment was adopted and tbe white people are free at last, -bnt they are coma to tbeir freedom with a limited knowl edge of the great questions of tbe boor. Tbe emancipated are ignorant as a role and this ease Is no ezoeption They will, indeed tbey must, apply tbemaelres to tbe stndy of tbe Ibines tbat are baring most to do with tbe weal or woe of tbe country." Oar able and observant frisnd is quite right io his view tbat the intelleotnal activities of our home people have been res'raioed and confined within narrower limits than would otherwise have been the ease by tbe overshadowing and distressful race issue which basmonop ilisad tbem ever since tbe war; bat it is also true that some of our more fortu nately circumstanced and represent live men have not greatly advanced in this respeot beyond the ignorant state of tbe people at large. Take, for trample, the ease of Sena tor Ptitchard, who has just now oome in for a large-meed of praise for bis alleged ' acquaintance with national eooDomio problems. We do not share this view of bis attainments. 8iz years of tbo kind of life which a Senator of tbe United States necessarily ecj)js, is calculated to endow any ordinary bu man with the air of a superior being when he confronts an audience in the usual American ton, North or Sooth. This circumstance is apt to be mistaken tor oogeney of argument by the aver age aodienoe. which is likely to be uninformed opon economic. How certain is it to be in tbe case of "the emancipated," as our Robeson friend so strikingly desoribes tbe present white people of tbe State ! Senator Pritchard dnes not seem to us to begin to approach his predeoes sor, tbe great Vanoe, in bis attain ments in tbis regard. Yet, if he were the great Commoner's equal in natural ability, as we infer so many believe, be, ought to bave made greater progress in mastering tbe faots of eoonomics tban Vanoe, beeanse be is younger, stronger and less Jieturbed than he by tbe oarried-over distresses of the wr a butden wbiob grievously handi capped tbe more active and dutiful participants in tbat great ootflict. Vance went to Washington almost an ignoramus in economiot; yet, long be fore be died, a couple of decades tater, be had become a rccogn'zjd authority in eoonomics in America as well among tbe writers in tbe cloisters, like Wells and Sohoenhof, as among theforensio debaters, like Bayard, Thur mao, Vooihees, Carlisle, Sherman and Hoar and bis name was familiar to those past masters in tbe science, in Britain and on tbe Continent, whose names adorn the rolls of the wonderful Cobden Clnb. - Without entering, for the sake of contrast, upon a ditenssion of Mr. Pritohard'd propositions in detail in relation to the tariff, (praotioally tbe oily national question raised by him), it will euffiiie to cite his statement tbat England, France, Germany and Russia are free trade ooontries; and his alle gation tbat "free raw material" is a Democratic dootrine. Except Eag land, all tbe oountries named are pro tectionist; and "free raw material" is tbe condition of the most extreme pro teotiou and the aim of tbe most heart less protectionist Tbe advooaoy of "free 'raw material'' was one of tbe heresies for which Mr. Cleveland was excommunicated, bo rar as we know, be is tbe only Democrat, cer tainly ct national prominenoe, who bas ever embraced and enunciated that vil lalnoua dootrine. Tbe proposition is so much in the nature of an axiom as to be hardly worth the stating, that the nearer the daties on raw material ap proach tero, the greater is the proteo tion which any given rata of duty affords to the finished article m an n fac tored therefrom. .

From Corbin' own pictures one would imagine him a very inferior sort of per son, but be recounts bis Impressions with apparent good Judgment al fol lows : "What impressed ma as being of great vain and worthy or Imitation by oor army," said he, "were tbe snperb staff organization, tbe quality of tbe eavalry horses and tbe beneficial effect npod yonog Germans of tbe military drill and discipline. -With regard to the steff organization, there is a bill btf ire onr Congress providing for tbe oreatioo of an organization tbat would fu fill. all tbe requirements of modern military condition. Tbe opposition to any radical change is likely to come lirgely from lb old soldier element. Tbis is trne of England, I noticaa It is of tbe United States. The argument is tbat tbe methods now in vogue proved successful under generals of other generations. Therefore, why cbanee tbemT "Tbe German army horses are far superior to oors.

To the Fayetteville Vbeerver : It bus been but two years since North Carolina was engaged in one of tbe most heated political contests that the 8 ate bas experienced since ihat which the immortal Vance waged against carpetbag and negro rule in North Carolina, and dethroned that gang from pewer and placed the reigns of govern ment in the bands of the white men of tbe State. Io tbe election of 1900 the State was aroused from the mountains to the sea i bore to settle once and forever the question of, negro rule in tbis State, and to make permanent the right of tbe white man to govern, by disiran ohi8ing tbat borde of incompetent negro voters, and enfranchising the white man forever. I consider the aproaching election to be iqaally as important as tbe last eleotion. In this election Ibe white voters of tbe Stale are confronted by this question: Sball wo stand united and maintain and defend what was accomplished in tbe last election, or sball we allow local dissensions to di vide ns and band tbe State over to independent republicans to undo what we bave already accomplished, and thereby pl-oe tbe State again under negro role f I do not believe it will be done, for we bave learned a lesson bj fusion rule that will not soon be for gotten. Tbe good old County of Cumberland, beiog, as it is, ibe sister county of Sampson, I feel a deep interest in ber general welfare both politically and otherwise. And I desire most earn estly to oongratulate tbe Democracy if Cumberland opon the strong ticket she bas placed in tbe field for tbe coming election.

" Referring to the rival claims of Prov idence and Protection to tbs credit for prosperity, tbs Tarboro Southerner aptly qiotes Mr, Blainn' celebrated reply to Mr. Gladstone, when tbe latier was pointing to the benefits derived by tbs .United States from tba Walker low tariff aot of 1810. Saystbs Southerner i For ten years beginning with 1840 the United States eiperienced aa un precedented prosperity and many have tines been siuoetely assorting and em tending tbat tbe same was attributable to tbs low tariff aot of tbat year. Bat bear Mr. Blaine on protection in reply to Mr. Gladstones "Under ordinary oiranmttanoes tbe free trade tariff of 1840 would have promptly fallen under popular repro balion and been doomed to speedy repeal. But it bad a shgolar history and for a time was generally acqui esoed in, even attaining in many see tions a certain degree "f popularity. Never did any other tariff meet witb so many and so great aids of an adveoti . tious obaraoter to toatain it as did tbis enact met t of 1846 Oar war with Mexico began just as the duties were lowered, and tbe const quenoe was the disbursement of more tban $100.0C0, 000 in a way tbat reached all localities and favorably effected all interests. Tbis was a great sum of mooev for tbat period, aud for tbe years 1849, 1847, and 1818 it considerably more than doubled tbe ordinary outlay of the government. In tbe middle of 'bis period tbe I-iab famine oocurred and called for an immt me export of bread stuff at bicb ptloes. Tbe discovery ot gold ia California ibe succeeding year flashed lbs channels of business as never fetfore, by rapidly enlarging ibe circulation of ooin iu all par's of Ibe country. Bfore tbis cmponricg of gold bad ceased, the thiee great na tions of Europe, as precedence was reokoued at tbat time England, France and Russia entered npon the Crimean War. Tbe export of manufactures from Eogland and France was checked; tbe breads' off i of Russia we-e blocka ded and eould not reach tbe rtarkjls of the world. An extraordinary stimulus was thus given to all forms of trade in ibe United States. For ten years 1840 to 1850 these adventitious aids or, me ia ttga ar succession and exe.ted their powerful iifluenoe upon the pros perky of tbe ooontry." Tbe prosperity ot wbiob tbe republi eaos boast and elaim all tbe eredit for is strikingly analagous tothatdesoribed by "Thu Piumed Knight ;" however, with tbis important differences The first was after a low tariff, tbe present one after a high tariff. Ia 1887 Ibe wheat crop of the world was very short while tbat ot tbis coun try Whs mare than proportionately large. The high prioes which followed killed populism in the west and north west. The Spanish War soon followed, forc ing tbe Government to pour out money, more tban a million a day, stimulating nearly every indastry ia tbe land. Every lumber yard was cleaned ; all the old bulks of ships were purchased at fancy prioes; steel for guns and ships were ordered in immense quanti ties at prices to snit tbe seller. la tbe meantime gold was pouring is from ooutb Africa and tbe Klondike War stopped Atrioa's gold prodnotion. but that war oreated a great demand for American food products and man nfaotures. From this it iB quite apparent that the prosperity of wbiob the republicans boast bas bad as many, or mov, ad ventitious aids than did tbe tariff law of 1810. "Ancient History " Wilmington Star. In bis speech at Kinston Senator Pritohard expressed bis regrets tbat Mr. Craig bad seen fit to disnoss "ancient history," when be recalled some of the io famous reoord which tbe Republican party bad made in this State. He, him self, didn't propose to discuss anoient history, and in that be showed lead mule sense and discriminating jadg ment. Mr. Pritchard would give twelve months salary if Mr. Craig and every voter io North Carolina would forget the anoient history to which be refer red, at least until this campaign is over. cut people are not apt to forget while tbey retain their reason the horrid chapters of that bis'ory which, like Maobetb't "damned spot," will not "cut." Mr. Pritchard would, dcubt less, like to have it out, for it isn't snob a picture as be would gpzi npon or hare set before bim, af:er the Re fiublican party, too, nnder bis maaipn ation has done so much dodging and scheming to dissever itself from its past, even to the t stent ot donning disguise as a white man's party by eliminating its moat trusty and stalwart element, the negro, without whom it would never bave amouLted to a corporal's guard in this State. Tbe Senator (who is iodeb'-d to the negro vote for the seat be bold), may be ashamed of the history his party has made in tbis Stale there is no man wbo has even a modioum of deeeney who would not be but bis being ashamed of it, and shrinking from disonsslog it, will not blot it out or make the people ot North Carolina forget bow they were humiliated, plon dered, oppressed and ground down by tbs party wbiob Mr. Pcitebatd renre seots and upholds when it bad tbe power to humiliate, plunder. onoresB and grind.

From a recent publication of tbe U. 8.

Tho best iross section for roads on grades is the one made up from two plane snrf.oes slopiog uniformly from the centre to the sides. This is done so -8 to avi'iJ the danger of overturn ing near the side ditches, wbiob would neocesariiy be increased it the elliptioal form where used. Tbe slope from the centre io the sides must be steep enough to lead the water into the side ditches instead of allowing it to ran down the middle of tbe road. Erery wheel track on an inclined roadway beaomes a channel for carrying down tbe water, and puless the oarvatnre is soffloient these tracks are quickly deepened into water coarse which out into and some times destroy tbe best improved road.

Speaking rf the Silver Porobare Aot of June 1890 the Sher man Act -and its effect, President Harrison in bis annual message to Congress, D-ot ruber, 1891, said, 'The exports ot gold which began in Feb roary last and oontinned until the close of July, eggregated over $70 000 000. The net loss of gold daring the fiscal year was nearly $08 000 000 ' "Notice tb date when thn export of gold began, February 1, 16'Jl, within less tban a year after tba passage ot tbe She-min bill to settle tbe financial question and of tbe McKinley bill establishing a high tariff, benator Pritchard caL'i make intelligent people believe tbr the Wilson bill (passed in August, 1894) caneed our gold to leave us. Ia fact tbe bard times were on before Cleveland was elected in 1892 Credit were strained, the great Home stead stnka fongbt out and lost before tbat election. Tbe Btrmgs bad failed, tbe collapse in Austria bad oome, 'bard timet,' were at tne door. And tbe gold reset va was so low tbat the Harrison administration bad tbe forms and en graving stones ready to print tbe bonds it saw were necessary to maintain the gold reserve. ' 3 Ia endeavoring to meet Mr, Craig's argument tbat trusts were fos tered by tbe protective tariff, 8enator Pritchard said that Ibis coold not be, for in free trade England, Austria, Franoe and Germany trusts were more numerous tban in the United States, Erg and bas praotioal froe trade, but the other eoontnes are all high pro tective ooontries. It is painful to bear a Senator of the Uoited States speak of Austria, Germany and Franoe as free trade oountries. Senator Priicbard pictured the hard times, as be called tbem, of 1890, and the relief which McKitjlej's eleotion brought to tbe ciuotry. He alluded to the price of cotton being 3 or 4 rents a poond. (Uotton nas not sold at any snoh price in 60 years unless it was badly damaged or rotlet) Mr. Craig showed bim tbe actoal price of cotton in Sraitbfield in September, 1896, to be 7 8 J against 8 40 tbe day of the speak ing (last Wednesday), benator Pritch ard then said, 'Oo yes, tbat is so. Bat everybody knew tbat MorLinley woold be elected then and cotton bad begun to rise.' The revenue officers laughed and thought this was a good hit and a complete answer. But it Senator Ptitchard had examined the reoord he would have found that the year previous, Ojtober 1, 1?95, long before McKinley was nominated, tbe ruling price of ootton was 9 cents a pound, bo far from rising upon Mo Kinley's eleotion cotton declined, fell a cent a pound wiibin s;x weeks after his eleotion. The day before tbe election of leUb, the price or cotton was ct and betH Christmas, 1896, it had fallen to 7t. "The lowest prioes ths ootton farmers have ever reteived for tbeir ettton was nnH-r the administration of President M K n'ey. The lowe t quotation for tDKiriling ootton on reoord iu New xoik is 4 98 tor Novembers during the week ending November 4 1898 just twenty months after President UcbVinley's first mensuration, and a year after the pas sage ot the high tariff Dingley bill. "It wa compare tbe prices of cotton daring tbe last two years of the Wilson tariff and tbe first two of tbe Dingley tariff, Senator Pritchard' statement beoomes more absurd.

ATLANTA, OA. were aold during tba Cleveland admin iitration and while tha Wilton law wa in foros for prioes averaging in New Ynrk- aa fnllnwi "The erop raised in 1895 at Sid cents per pound. "The crop raised in 1890 at 772 cents per pound . 'Average for. Cleveland's last two years 7.91 oents per pound. "Tbe orops raised in 1897 and 1898 were sold during McKinley' adminis tration, while tbe Dingley bill was in foree, for an average price in New York as follows! "Ths orop raised in 1897 at 6.22 per pound. "Ths erop raised in 1898 at 6 00 per pound. "Average price for McKinley's first two years of prosperity, 6 11 cents per poond, or an average of 18 J points, nearly two cents a pound, less than under tbe distressing davs of Cleve land's administration as Senator Prit ebard sorrowfully said. In fact during tbe eigbt years of Cleveland's two ad ministrations ootton sold for fair prices daring every season bat one, that was lo'J4j and tbat year, tbe pnoe averaged ot oents in New York, a balf oent higher than iu 1898, daring McKinley's prosperity. "These figures are all taken from the publications of Messrs. Latham Alexander & Co., which are the stand ard. "I don't believe the administration bas anything to do witb the price of cotton. I believe it is governed by tbe law of supply and demand. Bat I may be wrong Senator Pritohard may be right when he argues' tbat the price of cotton is affected by tariff laws, eto, if be is right then tbe McKinley ad ministration is in debt to tbe ootton farmers nearly $10 a bale on all the bales raised in '97 and '98. for it is tbat much under tbe Cleveland prices of '95 andm "So protection has done nothing for the ootton grower, and it has done nothing for tbe cotton spinner. Tbe ootton spinner never bad twenty-four as unprofitable months as have been the twenty-fonr months ending witb the last day of this month. A person may go over Cleveland's administration and seleot tbe worst months, and be ean't find twenty-four anything like as bad. If protection helps neither tbe cotton grower nor tbe ootton spinner how vaio must be Senator Pritobard's bope of carrying this State on the pro tection issue I Protection may help bulls and mica. Senator Pritchard claims it does and I don't claim to know. But I am confident that there is no benefit in protection to tbe oot ion grower and tbe ootton spinner, Ibeir prosperity depends upon peace ful trade expansion, and a lively for eign demand. "We have seen how tbe prices of ootton ranged nearly 2 cents higher nnder tariff reform, '95 and 'SO, than nnder protection and MoKinley pros penty in '97 and '98. If we consider the purchasing; power of money during those years ( 9q and Ub) and the pres ent time we will see that this was much greater than now. It is probable that cotton wonld boy at least 50 per eent. more of the necessities of life in 1895 than tbe same cotton would now. and the price in 1895 was nearly a half cent higber tban it is now. Cotton is lower and the necessities of life, especially those oontroiled by trusts, are higher. Prosperity appears to have come to the trusts in abounding measure, bat it is delusion and a snare to the producers and spinners or cotton. "Another thing about Senator Prit- ahard's speech struck me as stranre It was the amonnt of oredit be took for the passage of laws whioh be tried to defeat. "Two years ago he did his best to defeat tbe amendment. Now he rever eotly thanks God it is a law." Mr. Hamilton Kcntillin, Comepondenoa of the Observer Referring to Hamilton McMillan's letter regarding the Pembroke conven tion, be is right. It did not endorse Slooomb. Bat it did endorse as its candidate a man nominated by the old line Republicans and four or five sora- beaded Democrats, who when Repub- i! -a. noau gnerm or. inis county baa a negro aeputy ana put nis white prisoners nnaer tne negro's authority. Mr. Mc Millan says the Pembroke oonvention was to reboke the ring for wbat it did at Fayetteville. It tbe Fayetteville Convention, held on the 20th ot Angust, was the oause or tbeir detection, why did Hamilton McMillan keep bis card before the pub lic for nomination for tbe office of Register of Deeds until September 4:b, the day of the county Democratic oon vention, and why did he then, posing as a Demoorat, try to get tbe nomina tion for Register of Deeds, and, failing in tbat, expressed his willingness to be tbe Demooratio nominee for tbe House of Representatives. After bis failure to be nominated by tbe Demoorats, then he, on September 25th, aocepted the nomination for Treasurer from the Lumberton Republican oonvention, boesed over by United States Marshal B. Frank McLean and composed ot the oia line radicals and a few disaDDoint- ed Demoorats. It seems that the med icine takon at the Fayetteville congres sional convention, on August 20th, only operated on Mr. MoMillan Sen tember 25th at Pembroke, and we are atraid it will kill the patient November tbe 4th at tbe elose ot tbe polls. Mr. McMillan will please explain the above, as he has a great manv friends. both in Robeson and throughout the state, woo win regret tbe step that he has taken and who will be glad to know that be had just cause for acting towards his friends as he did. A man ot Hamilton McMillan's high sense of nonor ean easily imagine tbe position in whioh ha bas placed his friends wbo were advocation his nomination for Register ot Deeds on the Demooratio ticaet, wben be aocepted the nomina tion of the Radical oonvention.
