No- white Republican has sat by the President "during all the .confer iences as long as Booker ': Washington '- i did. The- enemy-tells us that . the negro is no longer in politics and that - the ReDublicans haTe - a lflly white party.- to-day.. We ' answer -them . by saying that their party Is still the negro, party because every negro who is allowed to Vote In the North rotes -. , the Republican ticket. The fact, that Booker' Washington was a party to a 1 conference, with the President proves that they are still a powerful factor. The President wants the negro Wash- - lngton to line up the negro delegates to the National Convention for Secre tary W. BT. Taft fox the Republican - nominee this time. There are always - a few negro leaders who can control the negro vote. In spite of the fact that the negroes 'have sworn ven geance against the "President on ac count of the Brownsville shooting scrap, they win be lined up. all right to due time. Whoever saw a negro t that was not a fool? They are all weak minded and easy led. Booker Washington is about the biggest fool of the whole bunch too, because he has forever destroyed hia usefulness among the white people of the South .. when he was persuaded by Teddy to C dine at the White House. So we are confronted each Presidential election year with this large negro vote and . the Republicans ought to have sense i enough to Bee that the sooner they .- disfranchise the last one of them the better It win be for their party. The social equality question in the North has no doubt a great deal to do with "., their holding on to Sambo. He is re ceived socially at their Cosmopolitan , Society Meetings and at most all other ; swell places, then they say, "Why not - give them a place in politics?" It Is - - their' business now let them take all .their medicine. A DISGRACEFUL ADMINISTRA TION. The billion dollar Republican Con gress, which adjourned without a sin gle praiseworthy act (with the ex ception of a few unavoidable 1aws-.it Passed) voted toujwJyt&fr . . . 15,000,000 a year is necessary, to matn v tain one. - Agriculture, which is our " .most Important industry and most vi - tal to the prosperity to the Nation, only got about one half of what one . battleship costs. There are no wars . .or even rumors of wars, henee no " necessity for this great waste of mon- : ey. for the Navy.- Then, it is to be hoped, oar Burplus mfmopa may be used for purposes of real value to the people, such as the Improvement of V oar water ways draining oar swamp lands, building good roads throughout ' t the land and establishing schools and : . v dUeges- of Agriculture. This will In- deed increase our Nation's wealth and add to the happiness and comfort of . - all the people The past Congress was a do nothing Republican Congress - with a great expendituee of the public . . funds that brought the people hard ships instead of relief. DEMOCRATS WILL WIN. The Republican Defeat. - it matters not who the Republican ' nominee is nor whether .he Is for Roosevelt policies or otherwise, the Republican party with all its broken promises and billion dollar wastes of money will go down in defeat as it - deserves to do at the election In No vember. The panic, brought' on by the unwise and dangerous Republi can administration, causing . lack of confidence between capital and labor and between producers and consum , ers and a thousand other short com ings to States as well as the whole nation, win carry the Democratic , party to victory in Congress as well as In the "White House. The Congress just adjourned; has been an utter failure and a miserable l sham. It has only wasted a billion dollars, paid' its members and gone home. The' people 'are thinking and reading, and they are going to vote for a Democratic administration this ".time. Nothing could 'be more fortu nate now than for Roosevelfs man , " or Roosevelt himself to be the Radi cal nominee. The Democrats are go ing to win.

Exception - is the Largest on Record Big Volume of Business Done and the Money it Brought to This Section. By way "of illustrating the value of the trucking Industry each, year to Wilmington's commercial and business Interests and summing up the ship ments this year in comparison - with other years, the Caroling Fruit and Truckers. Journal, of Wilmington, to its recent issue, says: - The past week witnessed possibly the last shipment of strawberries out this territory for the season of 1908. With one exception the year 1904 it has been the longest shipping season : on record: and all thines con sidered one of the most profitable. The first shipment of record went for- ward April 2nd, the last one June 5th nrortiratllv nfnA oH ff Mnn the carload movement stODoed two weeks ago. Mt Olive sending out the last car on May 24th. Since that date shipments have been wholly by express, from start to nmsn prices ruled satlsfactorry and to the main profitable all round, the transporta tion and refrigerator service being Al throughout, a precedent the railroads and refrigerator people must live up crop was not more than 70 per cent of normal or what the outlook indicated earlier to the sea son, none of the' markets really suf fered for want of berries and with equal truth It can be said that none were ever glutted or overstocked. The daily bulletin as issued from the Association headquarters at South Rocky Mount by Shipping Master Bauman during the shipping season and posted at all stations every morn ing, enabled the growers and ship pers to distribute their berries Intelli gently and to the best advantage. Hence good prices prevailed and satis factory returns made. In this way the carload receipts for each market were known at every shipping station the following day and the prices ruling on the different grades of stock. "Wilmington being the central figure around which all this great and prosperous industry revolves and the clearing house for the greatest fruit and trucking district in the South, it is interesting to note the wonderful increase in bank deposits here since the shipping season opened, as dis closed by the official statements of the national banks made on May 14 to the government aWashington on that date. The total volume " of strawberry shipments out of this territory for the season of 1908 foots up 1,515 carloads in refrigerator cars and by the South ern Express, Including the carloads and express shipments over the board JUr Line between Wilmington I and HamleC The average value this!4 year per crate has surpassed anything j of record, the amount ranging any-1 where from $2.75 to $3 per crate, net At this rate it win be seen that the strawberry crop of this year has tributed In the neighborhood of $1, 141,562.50 throughout this section. The numerous local, banks throughout the producing district show a healthy Increase of deposits, while the banks of Wilmington make an equally . fine showing.- For instance, ' the state- ment of the Southern National bank. as.nfabliflhed to another column to-dav. shows, a -gain of 1208.64457; to com- parison with. the bank's statement toand-f-I'rank Southerland's corner; the gOTernment a tew weeks ago. While we have not the figures for the other banks, it is safe to say that al-1 together-combined they, will show up with- enoueh to swell r the deoosits I among- tne wummgton banks to at least half a million dollars. "This vast sum will, go in part to the liquidation of outstanding obliga tions, next to cautions investment,. and then tq vthe credit account of people who are on the lookout for profitable investments. - It is safe to . Bay; that folly.halt the vremalntngr six hundred thousand dollars will gradually gravi tate f to. Wilmington,' To this, should be added $160,000 from tho lettuce crop salev $200,000 from.. the potato land other vegetable crops around Wil mington, making a total of more than a million' dollars that Wilmington and Wilmington's business interests : han- dle from the trucking industry; this ' i I eucuumgeaieni possipie 't - i -" . rjmixjm uui.memDen nr t na Nan ora aiuiivfn a . i -,-r lVt. . j House of ReDresentatlves t tii L I. . - ;. . - 0 . take note and govern themselves ac- j MAGNOLIA. -Mr Tfihn'Vri Stokes, of near.?.
