THE CAUCASIAN PUBLHU SD EVERY THURSDAY BT THE C4CC4I! rCBLHSJIWO CO .UiriU-TIO MTIf. 9MB TlAJt. . IX MOUTHS... MM llMt TBBKK MONTHS. Entered at tbe Post Office lo Cllotco N. C. as a-cood-clana mail matter AM AUMIMIOM TIIATimlOMIFICAHT The AtlanU Constitotion sent i special reporter to North Carotin during the last campaign, and open ed wide its eolomia to assist Sim mon and bia machine in running negro acare-crow campaign. Han drsds of tbonaanda of eopif a of tb Constitotion, with highly colored po litical articles supporting Bimmom and bis machine, were broadcaster over the Siate. Wince the last legis latore adj urned, the AtlanU Con stitotion baa been defending Sim mon thieving election law and hi proposed Constitutional Amendmen to disfranchise voters. The Constitu tion has alao advised the State ma chine in Georgia to adopt the sam scheme. The above facts make the follow ing editorial admission by the At lanta Constitution, with reference t the Amendment very significant. We referred to this matter in last week's issue, but on account of the circumstances referred to above it deserves further notice in this week's I issue. In an editorial discussing the Louisiana scheme and the proposed I North Carolina scheme of disf ran- chising, that paper says: "At any rate, if the Supreme! Court of the United States, should ever, in any case from North Caro lina, Louisiana, or Georgia, hold that the Amendment of this character (tbat is the grandson of the grand father clause, known a the Fifth Section violate the 15th Amend ment of the Federal Constitution, still the balance of the proposed amendment would be constitutional, I and the educatiotal aaalification would stand; and that would acoomp- huh innnlnnlahlA atnnH ' I lish incalculable goodJ It will be seen from the above edi torial extract that the Constitution admits tbat Section 5 of the proposed disfranchising scheme may be de clared unconstitutional by the Su preme Court of the United States, and that tbe Court might simply knock out that section and leave the remaining sections of the proposed amendment to stand. It not only admits that the Court could do this, but it admits that when the Court does thin that the educational quaU fication would apply to disfranchise both illiterate whites and blacks alike. Tbe Constitution not only maxes this admission, out goes a step further and says it would be a gotd thing if the Court so held. Now, what does this meant It means czactly what we have often stattd, aid what has often been de &Ud by Simmons and his machine in this State, that is that it was their purpose in offering this amendment to make it all constitutional except section fire and to make that section so em phatically unconstitutional and stand it off by itself so distinct and separate from the remainder of the amendment, that the Court not only could, but would declare section 5 unconstitutional and leave the re mainder of the amendment to stand. This is exactly what we believe Sim moss and his machine had in mind when they drew that amendment. and, further, that it is what they expect d the Supreme Court to do if the amendment should be adopted. It this was not their purpose, why did they not put section 4 and 5 in ons paragraph as several members of the Democratic caucus insisted upon being done f If Mr. Simmons or any member of that secret Demo cratie caucus can answer this or throw any light upon this matter, we will be glad to open our columns to them. THK POU AFFIDAVIT AGAIN. We have hai.a great many calls for the last issue of the Caucasian Kuuiamiu( tu ivu awuativ. iuu affidavit it will be remembered was a part of the campaign literature of the last campaign, and was made by Mr. James H. Pou, ex-Chairman of the Democratic State Executive Committee. This affidavit of Mr. Pou's was to the effect that the Democratic party, if it got in pow er, would not permit any disfran chising measure whatever whether directed against whi.es or blacks, and that furthermore, if such i proposition was offered to a Dem ocratic Legislature it would not re ceive a single Democratic vote. Mr. Pou further stated in this affidavit that those who made the charge against the Democratic leaders that they Intended to put through any disfranchising measure whatever, were guilty of wilful falsehood. As stated above, we have had so many calls for extra copies of the paper containing this affidavit, which we have been unable to supply, we have decided to re publish it in our next Issue. The affidavit will re appear in our columns next week, and should you desire any extra copies please send in your request for them right away. Simons HAS MADS A DISOOTKBT. Because the Asheville Gazette, as an independent Democratic newspa- paper has preferred to oppose dis honest methods in elections and has bitterly fought Simmons' election law, every means opea to the ma china to read it oufof the party has teta rtjortti to. The GaseU ha been giving Mr. Simmons and hie machine considera ble trouble, and the machine prees of the State would grow too full of indignation for utterance evary time the Gazette waa referred to as a Democratic paper. Something else besides merely reading it out of the party had to be' done, and-Mr. Sim mons "dona" it. It was a big job, one requiring considerable diligence at research as well as an aptitude for invention, but Mr. Simmons waa equal to the task. Be has bunted around and made the discovery that the opinions of the Gazette hare been bought, and he writes a long open letter which his press is giving wide circulation to, asserting this as a fact, because baaed upon his "firm belief." QThe .Gazette'sJcnme'Iagainst the Simmons machine is that it is fight ing for political liberty in . North Carolina, and desiring honest elec tions, it is Mr. Simmons' firm belief that it is dishonest.enough to sell its opinions. ; In'other words the test of machine Democracy in North Carolina is the support of a dishonest election law. And it naturally follows (in the est matioh of the machine) that because the Grsette has refused to support this dishonest measure, such refusal must proceed from a dishonorable motive. In this connection we call atten- tion to the fact that there were some papers in North Carolina in the cam paign of 1896 which called them selves Democratic, bat which fought against the Chicago platform and did all they could to defeat Bryan Why were not these papers "read out of the party!" An answer from Mr. Simmons in reply to this question would also be of eonsinerable inter- est to the North Carolina public. SQUIRMS BUT DOFA NOT DENY. Thk Caucasian, in its last Issue, contained an editorial headed : "Let us Keep History Straight," in which reference was made to Mr. lMoKlnlv' rpxnfc stAtmnt that the country WM put under the gold r r- " standard by Cleveland through the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman Act. We called at tention to the fact that Cleveland was supported in this policy by a majority of the Democrats in Con gress, both houses of which was then largely Democratic ; aod that a great many of these same Demo crats who helped Cleveland to put the country under the gold stand ard are still in Congress, most of them posing because they have as silver men found out that the rank and file of their party is over whelmingly forsilver. In this con nection we called attention to the fact that the editor of the News and Observer who was at that time holding a fat job in Washington under Cleveland, was supporting Mr. Cleveland's policy and writing letters to his paper advocating it, and that he was fighting Vance, who was then opposing Cleveland and Ransom. We stated this was now at the of Mr. Simmons, who is also true head of the Democratic party lnthis State. The editor of the News and Observer replied to this editorial by saying that this "proves the Caucasian has joined hands with Senator Pritchard." A very conclusive answer to be sure. WHAT ABBS THK FACTS? The News and Observer has a staff eorrespondent in Kentucky re porting the political fight in that state for that paper. At least there is appearing in that paper over the sismatnre of one Sann snecial com. manications from Kentucky giving caonnt of the fiirht in that Stati In one of these communications this eorrespondent said that the fight in Kentucky this year was fiereer and bitterer than the campaign in North Carolina last year, but that it differed from it in that the campaign in Kentucky was more a personal fight in which personal prejudices played the greater part, while the campaign in North Carolina last year upon the part of the Democratic machine "was a fight for arineinle." n ucei more oaeesi to mase a statement of this kind than was ever possessed by the proverbial govern- ment mule. However such state- ments as these are not a new depart ure in the columns of the News and Observer. What are the facts f Mr. Bryan and Chairman Jones, both in their official eapaeity in the last campaign made an urgent ap peal to the leaders of the Democratic party in this State to join with all the other silver forces in the State to carry the State for fi nancial reform. They knew that the State was carried for Bryan and free silver in 1896 by a twenty thousand majority through such a union of forces as they were then urging, and they knew it eould be so carried again without any surren der to the gold and monopoly Demo crats of the State. And it is need less to add that the Democratic ma chine in this State knew this also t o well in fact to need to be told so by Mr. Bryan and Chairman Jones, but being themselves, at heart, gold and moiopoly Democrats and oldBiooe 1861 Will the free, liberty followers of Cleveland and Bacsom ' 1QTUUC Wle.

This was the "campaigi for prin ciple,' which, according to the New nd 0'ieerver, was waged by the rtn'cratie machine in the last cam paign. Oa ttic other hand the fight in Kentucky is a fight for principle 'or the great principle of political iberty. Men of all parties who favor the freedom of the ballot, the right to vote and to have that vote counted, are fighting Mr. Goebel and the Democratic machine of that state, for the reason that it is the undis guised purpose of that machine to deal the election for Uvebel if pos sible. And so it will be in the next State ampaign of this State when Mr. Simmons and his machine will try to jttal the election through their infa mous thieving election law. .

Major Jones, of Toledo, is also in the race as an Independent candidate for Governor. He is running on a platform about the same as the People's Party platform. Should he be elected Governor the people would have in him a friend.1 But it is rather too soon we presume for such a tribune of the people to be elected in such a party-ridden state as Ohio. However, it is admitted, even by the Associated Press which is always opposed to such move ments, that Mr. Jones' vote will be a considerable factor in the result The Caucasian would like to see him elected Governor of Ohio. THE SIMMONS ELECTION LAW. Rom Timely and Sensible Comment by - Dr. Harrla on the ThlevUs; law. Dr. I.. A. Harris writes a very sen sible and timely communication to the Asheville Gaz9tte, and indepen dent Democratic paper which is op posed to the thieving election law, from which article we make tne fol lowing extract: As to the real intent of the pro posed constitutional amendment and what its result would be if it should be passed, suspicious as it is, tbe democratic leaders must prefer. 1 think, that the minds of the people should be directed to the ''amend ment" than to the provisions of the unfair and disfranchising election law, which does not bear the least resemblance to fairness upon its face. I am told while this measure was pending before the legislature not one of its promoters had the audacity to assert that it was at all a fair election law, but when they were assailed by the helpless minority of the house and an appeal was made in bebalf of the honest people of the state, their only reply was that they intended to pass it for tbe purpose of carrying the amendment; after that had passed they would give the people a fair and honest eleetion law admitting that tbe present elec tion law, is a machine with which to grind out the constitutional amend ment, whether a m j rity of the people voted for it or not. - This eleetion machine is controlled and manipulated by democrats ap pointed by tbe legislature under the direction of Simmons and his ma chine henchmen selected for the purposes. I am loath to believe that the free, thinking people of the good Old North state will ever endorse such corrupt methods. The people of North Carolina are conservative. Even in her darkest history the state was slow to move, and J consider' that the people have not had a more atrious question be fore tbem than this present one political liberty. L A. Barkis. Jnpiter, H. C. Dr. Harris takes a position that the Simmons machine are more in terested ia fastening upon MVib'riur9 a-uranteed.j of the state this infamous thieving lection law than in passing the proposed Constitutional Amendment. Thtre is something in this view of ibe matter. The Caucasia bat on several oeeasfion called attention to the fact tbat as long as the people of the state would tolerate Simmon and his crowd of ballot-box staffer and permit them to keep on tb statute books such an election law by which to steal votes by the whole sale, that it was not necessary to have any amendment to disfranchise an) body. It is clear, as Dr. Harm points out, tbat Simmons and hi band of ballot box staffers do not want the election law to be the issue iu the next campaign. A MINISTi R HANGED. Convicted or Wif-Mo.rder Story or the Crime. Dallas, Tex., Oct. 27. Re. G. E. Morrison was hanged at 12 o'tlcck to-day at Vernon. Ttxts, for wift murder. He met his death resign edly. On the scaffold he said to the seleet party of twenty witnesses per mitted at the execution: "I am innocent. Circumstances over which I had no control have Dlaced me in this position.

Oa Fri day night before her death Mrs or rison went to the Swiss Brit-Ringers' entertainment, leaving Morrison at home, he having said he bad to pre pare his Sunday sermon. The next morning he took the strychnine back to the druggist, telling him tnat he was afraid to use it for fear he would poison his neighbor's chickens. The package had been opened. Sunday night he preached, and al luded in a pathetic manner to the parting with loved ones at death. About ten o'clock that night he called upon bis neighbors for assis tance, announcing the serious illness of his wife, she was found in par oxysms and spasms. He delayed sending for a doctor, who arrived af ter th wife's death. In the mean time, he had kept np his correspondence with Miss Whit tlesey, writing her a letter two days before the death, of his wife and the day after Lor bnrial, asserting his love in the most lavish terms.

Circuit Judge JSversole will not go ith the State militia to the Clay County Court to-morrow, for to-day he received an intimation that he is about to lose his office, because fear ing assassination, he did not go to Manchester, as it was his duty to do. He has gone to Frankfort to learn if he is to le removed. Twenty years ago he and his bro ther were leaders of the Evtrsole faction of the French Eversole fend in Perry county, and as Perry is on ly sixty miles from Clay, back in the mountains, he fears that if a battle should take place in Manchester du ring court, that he would be assass inated by friends of the French fac tion, and bis death be a.tributed to stray bullets, or the blame be laid upon one of the Clay factions, which has been a very successful trick in feudal warfare.
