The legislature which convened in January 1899 undertook to dis place Mr. Theophulus Wliite, who had been apjointed Chief Shell-Fish Commissioner by the Legislature of 1 897 for a term of four years, sim ply changing the laws of 1897 rela ting to the oyster industry of North Carolina so as to oust him and ap point seven commissioners in his stead with like duties to perform with a salary of $400 each besides an allowance for an expense account. Near the close of the oyster , season of 1899 these commissioners met in New Berne and in the absence of Mr. White took charge of the steamer "Lillie," which was then tied to a wharf. They manned her and one or two of these commission ers proceeded on her to SwanQuar ter, where they sailed up and down the bay a few times and appointed deputies to serve at different points, It is presumed the deputy inspectors did no work as no tax has been paid into the State Treasury. Mr. White proceeded to test the validity of the law, which, no doubt, was enacted for the sole purpose of getting him out before his time had expired, and electing in his stead Democrats. The highest court ojhe " TL - expected he would, that trie amend ment is "all right now no danger of its disfranchising any white man now."

The amendment i- ust as dangerous in its present form as ever. MOORE State decided he was entitled to fhe office for the balance of his term, so the new set of Commissioners were in but a short while. The services done for the State in the perform ance ot their duties were mere nom inal. It is a fact well known, that these Commissioners performed no work worth mentioning. They simply took charge of the State Steamer "Little," and sailed 75 miles and back, and laid him up, and for this service the long winded, long con tinued and unprecedented Legislature way down in June, 1900, with a rush, and in a very few minutes, by a law which goes upon the statute books of our State, allowed these commissions, deputies, merchants. lawyers, &c, the round sum of $4, 986,98, ot the hard - earn ed money placed in the Treasury by Mr. White and his subordinates. I was through Fusion legislation that the ovster industry has developed and the most of these men who are given this money have even fought the policy pursued by the Republi cans and Populists in regard to the ovster industry. I ask the law abi ding and good people of the State if it is right and honest to take money from the Treasury, put there by the hard-flsted oystermen, in the shape of taxes, and pay out to- men who have rendered no service to the State, and who are not officers of the State, which has been so declared by the Supreme Court of the State. The Raleigh correspondent of the Asheville Gazette of June 19th says : "The legislature, in their political extra session, made more mistakes, if possible, than they did in their regu lar session in proportion to the time they consumed. They took the pow er to grant liquor license out of the hands of the county commissioners of Northampton county, and the act says license shall be granted on peti tion of a majority of the qualified vot ers in any township on the order of the judge holding the Supreme Court for said county. They have by this act either made Northampton a Pro hibition county or established a spe? cial Supreme Court for that county. In amending the dispensary act for Macon county they strike out certain words in section three of chapter 325 laws of 1899, when the words they legislate shall be stricken out do not appear in section three chapter 325, lows of 1899.

Ilrinnimtii Violate Their pel They Have fooled ihe People And Are Trying to Io It Again. In ii sjK'ech delivered in the court 'Mii-e in Ilendersonville in October, I K9X, Gov. Jarvis said: "They say if you ever let these leinoerats get into power they will disfranchise the negro and oor wliite man. Well, we came into lover in '7 and no negro or white The fact is them. The Constitution decide that." Gov. Jarvis then said that his pledge was backed up by an official pledge in the Democratic handbook. He then read from the handbook as follows: "The Democratic party is the poor man's party. Nine-tenths of itsmernlers are poor men. How utterly absurd, then, is the false charge that the llepulicans are trumping up to deceive the unwary. In order to give some color to it, they quote something from a'' Yan kee newspaper, whose editors and owners are, we have always under stood, Republicans, that Gen. W. It.

Johnson County, N. C, June 18, 1900. En. Caucasian: I see in your paper of June 14th extracts from a speech of Hon. A. M. Waddell, delivered in Randolph county, N.'C, June (, 1900, in w hich he said that any man voting against the amendment ought to le to transact buisness with ne- oiid t!tq lift Mmc ii'illitiir t - auu i nai Jii- f ttii- n uiiii iw shoulder his gun to make them do it. In reply to this let me say a word of encouragement to those who may lie intimidated by these threats. The ex-Lieut. Colonel will not shoot. He was Lieutenant Colonel of my regiment ( 1 1st Cavalry) during our great war from 1861 to '65. As soon as he found out that he would have to go w here there was danger of getting hurt. When the old State was calling on her sons for their help, it was then that A. M. Waddell resigned his commission and deserted the starry cross of the Confederacy and went to preaching to keep out of the army. Andafter the war was over he being a self- constituted preacher, not called of God, he abandoned preaching and went into politics. I think that he was the first Southern man that I heard make a speech in favor of negroes voting. If they were eligi ble to vote then, just out of bondage, they should le better qualified now after thirty-live years citizenship among Christian people with their churches ami schools. I am not ad vocating the negro claims, but would like to see them treated right. Especially the old negro who stayed at home and took care of what their owners had while they were in the army. I always "have a kind word for these old ne groes, which is the class that will be "the white man's party." It the lesser lights would say that . - a i a I ii i t it a a . w ill never submit any proposition to disfranchised it the amendment is the people to take from a man his adopted. It is the white man, the right to vote. No Democrat has ever proposed such a thing. The charge is only intended to mislead, to deceive and to make political cap ital. It is entirely false. There is not a "Democratic convention that would not spit upon the man who might make such a proposition. There is not a Democratic candidate for office who would not pledge hir iself most solemnly against it." P'N.t only did Gov. Jarvis make this pledge, but also did every Dem ocratic sjieaker from mountains to sea, as their platform pledged that they would. They not only pledged the people that they would not do this thing, but they also solemnly assured the people that they could not do it if they wanted to, Ieeause it'would lie unconstitutional. f. They have broken their pledge. That is bad enough. Hut n.ov aro now trying to fool the illiterate white voters info voting fortius unconstitutional, bastard, disfran chising scheme. They are now tell ing the white voters that it is con stitutional. How can they expect any one to U'lieye their promises and pledges now? They saw in the last camiraign that such an amer.fl- his heirs and my heart in Confederate soldier, ancestors, that is on this amendment matter. I know many of them without an education on account of the war, and various other causes, erhaps sixty thousand in this State, who will be disfran chised if the amendment is adopted. I would hate for these old heroes or their ancestors, those who followed Lee, Jackson, Johnson, the very best citizens in this State to be deprived of the privilege of voting if they wish to do so. I trust that they will watch these demagogue politi cians who tell that if the amendment is carried none but negroes will be disfranchised. I don't believe it no more than I did in the last cam- aign when they promised that if the Democrats got in power that they would not try to disfranchise anylxnly. There is no danger of negroes controlling this State. The whites have about 250,000, while the ne groes have only 120,000 voters, hence they will never control this State. Resiectfuly, C. M. Ellington. The Democratic Papers Gira the Secret Away The Negro Party la Yet to be Organised. Ever since the News and Obser ver has been under its present con trol, it, with the second-handed Democratic papers of the State and South, has wrorn itself into a frazzle and then worn the frazzle out squalling "the negro party,"and saying the Democratic party Was and the Republican party was "the negro party." When the Republicans would start to show that it was not, these papers (Observer and others) wrould drown the sound or argu ment by the frantic squall of "nig ger! nigger 1! nigger!!! The people had actually begun to credit the Observer with not know ing any better, with having no bet ter sense. But the Observer has given itself away on this as in a thousand of other things it has said In its issue of the 7th, it gives its own self the lie. For under abig head line "For a Negro Party,'' the Observer says: , TEe first step looking to the or ganization of a Nat ional negro party have been taken in this city (Phila delphia). Prominent negroes Bish ops, ministers, editors and lawyers at a meeting yesterday decided to place a party ticket in the field with negro candidates. The plan is to organize the party in every State of the union, nominate candidates for State and Congressional offices. It's true this was an associated press dispatch, but the Observer did not correct it by an editorial. And in publishing it without comment, ather shows that it welcomes such a party. The Observer knows that as the people have begun to think, they can no longer be fooled with the cry of negro party. In this State, the Democrats car rv the negro counties, in the na tional elections, the Democrats carry the negro States. So the negro either votes the Democratic ticket or the Democrats steal them one. POPULIST TO SIWMON5ITE: WM 1 T COUNTY POPULIST CONVENTION. NOTICE.

We would like to ask Mr. Lacy if he did not ask, or suggest once that a white Democrat be taken down from a cer tain position which he had held for Resolved by the Peoples Party of years, and that a negro be put in his place? But we will not ask him. We hope Mr. Lacy will not take all these huge jokes serious. The only thinsr that can save Mr. lAcy, accor ding to a Democratic lper, is the Democratic registrars.
