FEDERALISTS AND REPUBLICANS Students of American history know what damages, difficulties and trials attended the beginning of our govern ment after tlie constitution was adopt ed in 1789. Two parties were early formed; ithe one lent towards a strong government, and, the other towards the people. The movement was novel, for our government was unlike any other that the .world had seen. Many of the friends and leaders of the people distrusted the. jiew.C'verjiment, .and looked back with real affection irpon the superseded confederation. Pror feasor MoMaster, the historian, dn an interesting article in the last "Harper's magazine, referring to this, states that those who were opposed to the feder alist idea of government,, held, that m adopting the constitution there was really no "need of such radical changes as were introduced. He said that they contended that some of the "true prin ciples of republican government might easily .ve been retained, while every defect was done away with." They very wisely-contended, as It seems to us at this late day, that there was real danger In establishing a con stitution "under which the states were so weak and the federal government so strong." Professor McMaster says that a 'large part continued to the very last to protest that the United States was in immediate danger of ceasing to be a republic." 'Many : of, these men were wise in their day and generation. It was because of -this distrust that the amendments to the constitution were adopted and because such men as Jefferson, Madison, Ran dolph, . 'Monroe and" others saw the dangers threatening. The newspapers of the time as well as public men, were In their expressions: xf fear and even in their denunciations of some of the changes that were wrought. Professor McM-aster mentions that the National Gazette, the journal founded by Jef ferson and Madison declared "that the federalists were monarchists and aris tocrats; the holders of government bonds and the bank stock were the treasury squadron, the corrupt squad ron, Mr. Hamilton's myrmidons. .The bank was a great engine for corrutp-. tion" and it was further - contended that "the tawdry gowns of the judges the large salaries paid to government .officials and ja national debt of eighty "millions, were the .forerunners of mon . archy and aristocracy.' The plain duty ' of every republican was to set his face against this folly and seek to re-establish the simplicity and equality which form the corner stone of the republic." The republican party -of Jefferson was a very different' thing from the party of thaffname -now. They were not Of . kin. i - HIGHER TAXES AND GREATER ROBBERY. . We wish we covld make our readers understand fully the outrages being au thorized by the McKinley-Dingley rob ber .lax, now under fij-e in the senate. It passed the senate, five or six alleged . democrats supporting it. Positively, we ' would' not vote for a fellow who fa- vored that scoundrelly plot against the people if we were, to be disfranchised. We believe it to be both unconstitution al and Immoral, both oppressive and , injurious that it is a tax for favored interests and not, a tariff for revenue. Everything is too high and hundreds of articles are severely taxed that,; ought to be at very low rates. The New Jer sey potteries have failed to the amount of $3,500,000. But the great sums they wrung f rpm the people under a robber tax will not be known. The'-wool tax is barbaric and rascally, and offends s those who are robbed It was mentioned . yesterday . in The Messenger that the lowest grade of scissors, used by all the poorer classes in this country, are taxed 225 per cent. You must pay $1 for what yoirought to pet for, say "30 cents. Here are the pocket knives tax: All pocket knives costing not morje than 40. cents per dozen, -10 cents per dozen and 15 ' per , cent, ad valorem. li All pocket knive 'costing more than 4 40 cents per dQzen, if with one blade 50 cents per dozen, and 20 per cent, ad va lorem. If with two blades, $1 per dozen and 20 per cent, ad valorem ; and if with . - pearl or shell handle, 50 cents per dozen extra.' If with three blades, $1.50 per dozen and 20 per cent, ad valorem... If with four blades, $2 per dozen and 20 per cent.- ad valorem; and on three and four blade knives, if with pearl or shell handle, 75 cents per dozen extra. This is a great advance upon the Wil son tai!t and also upon the McKInley tariff 'that wrecked the party that adopted It. Let the farmers and others consider these Infamous outrages upon their pockets, and note the following . we find in The Philadelphia Record: . "American salt, is now selling for less down in this country, although salt is - on the free list. The Dingley bill, how ever, cracks a duty of 12 cents per 100 , pounds on salt. Putting these things ' ( together in his mind, it would puzzle the studious and contemplative farmer to understand how Mr. Dingley can make his solicitude for agricultural prosperity tally with the unnecessary salt tax." SHARPS AND FLATS. . The wealth Of the very rich now is a marvel. The power of rrfoney is su preme, and it is controlling potentates, presidents, cabinets, parliaments, con gresses, legislatures and even the churches. If a man gets rich, and no matter by what oppressions, double dealing, wrong doing it Is accomplish ed, , and gives liberally to the church, be is lauded., almost canonized.' The end justifies the neans. Dr. Lyman Abbott, who could not swallow Jonah If the whale did, has made a calcula tlon. He takes Adam and gives him 6,000 years to work in until the present, resting the seventh day, and says that after supporting his family and had "been able to lay aside as the result of his toll $100 every day the idea of interest not having: been conceived "in" all ot these 6,000 years of accumula ! tlon Adam today would not be worth as much. as Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Vander- bllt, or Mr.; Goulds who had . nothing-, i or whose fathers had nothing: compar atively, a few years ago." Rev. Dr. Mayo, of -Boston, well known in the south, has been often through the 'South. We know him personally and he is friendly to this section. ,He stated recently that "the sixteen south ern states are "today paying" as much for theJ public schools . as the British paliament votes every " year for the "public school system of the British is lands between $20,000,000 and $30,000, 000."! And he adds that since the war the "south has expended "$250, 000,000 M its own money for education $75,000, 000 of It for the children" of the colored people." That is correct testimony and from a New Englander. The southern negroes should remember that. It Is the democrats who voted them that great sum of $75,000,000, and out of their poverty. " No other people In history ever voted away their own scarce money by the tens-of millions to help to educate their negroes wrests ed from them by the rude hand of war. And yet the negroes have no. gratitude or appreciation of this and the north is constantly lying about it and denying it. When the radicals had control after the war they either wasted or stole the public funds Intended for popular edu cation to a very great extent. Think on these things. . . The furious money madmen in the north are playing High Jinks over the decision : of the recently sacred and praised supreme court of the United States relative o trusts. The dema gogues will fume now the very fellows too that damned Mr. Bryan as an "an archist and revolutionist" because he dared to criticize the awful supreme court. Just as soon as the court lays its hand upon most, foul and Injurious eombinatiohs what a mighty hellaba loo occurs and wild threats are heard smiting the empty , air. The decision may be right or wrong, , but the threats are , what amuse us now. No many month since the supreme court was too precious, too sacred to be ques tloned, and onlv "anarchists" would dare to lay their unholy hands upon it. But now it is guilty of much wrong, of inflicting great injury, of being tainted with infamy; The , New York Sun says: ..' : "The Sherman anti-trust law was put among our statutes solely for political purposes, with a tricky expectation that it would amount to no thins:, or with reckless disregard of its power for damage. Demagogues made these laws, and when it pleases the supreme court to construe them as it has in the transmissouri case the mischief is ap parent, j "One can say easily: Here we are. But who can answer the great ques tion: Where are we?" The Messenger has again-and again shown from the best sources, even from the reports of the United States government', how great the loss to the' farmers year by year in the fall of prices. Last year studious, ingenious, determined efforts were made to dis prove the -government figures and to show the great prosperity of the Amer ican farmers. There Is no. election at present pending and some of the news-. papers that fought the democracy with an uncommon bitterness of invec tive are now admitting low prices. Says one of these. The Baltimore Herald: . "But it is evident that something is wrong somewhere. Producers of food in the interior never sold what is rais ed on the farms so cheaply as during the last three years. On the other hand, manufactured ' goods . never brought so low prices, and all the time 'the west has bad flour to burn and the people out there need shoes.'." Men who travel in the south and west And out a great deal as to the real condition of business and of the people generally that is not known to the men in the great cities that is not so much as dreamt of in their phil osophy.' We have often marvelled at the stolid " ignorance and universal ock-suredness of certain "CTeat pa-' pers". In the commercial centres. The drummers who go and sell areHnformed much better than the office Solomons whether on Wall street or In the news paper buildings. One of these in Ohio, selling fire-proof safes, has been all over the country. He was in Boston lately and told of the very dull times and then said: "In Ohio porter-house steak is worth 9 cents a pound, and in Boston 28 cents. The manufacturers of Lynn cannot find a market for their shoes, while their employes need flour. The west has flour to-burn, and the people out there need shoes." t . Is not "something rotten in Den mark?" Are not the business plans and the monetary arrangements very defective- some how? Wise men. if; there be such left, cause' and solution. might here find When the grand plan of making the ''Greater New York" - is : fully consu "mated there will be one city on our continent of great population and of extensive area. London's population now is more than 4,500,000. It is six years since the census was taken. Then it was nearly four and ' a quarter mil lions. It is calculated that when the Brooklyn aijd outlying cities and towns are all covered by "Greater New York" a poor name. by the way it will have over 3,000,000, and will be the greatest city in population after Loiidon and out of China. It ought to have a new name Manhattan, or something else equally striking, as has been suggested We had long known that the northern whites at bottom had very decided prej udices as to the "negro. The fact that they do not give them offices in their states, that they do. not allow them to work In trades with Whites, that they do not hold sittings together in ; the churches show this real, unmistakable hostility. - But we did not suppose that this antipathy up north has extended to southern negroes on the part of the northern" darkies. But it seems that the race prejudice is strong, and a northern Sambo turns up his nose at his "brother in black" from the south and tells Cuffee he is not to be asso ciated . with. The New York Times Bays that a colored youth "recently from Tennessee,, who is employed in a private family, was admonished to avoid falling "into bad company by his employer. 'No danger of " that, sir, he promptly said. 'Colored folks around here don't take much to south erners. Pressed for an explanation, he said: 'Well, it's about this way Colored folks In New York like to 'so ciate with themselves, and they think a southern colored man ain't Just good enough for them. .When you get in among them they make fun at you; and they don't seem to have any for a southern colored, man. because most of our parents or grandparents were Blaves. : They say they were always free, and they look down on any man who comes from what they call 'slave stock.' '! " SNAPS. The United States senate has a great. a paramount amy u lwuunu w de feat the infamous tariff monstrosity or to cut it down half way. . Yearsago, out in Montana, onions were the currency in part. It is much on that line now in many of the states. It is reduced to trade by barter. The venerable Associate Justice Stephen J. Field will retire from the supreme court in July. . He has long served, is a decidedly able Jurist and is a democrat, ";' s - - Certainly, the orange growers in Flor ida would like a tax levied for their benefit. They do not want the Yankees to get all of the benefits from vicious class legislation. In York state there are a great many tax dodgers, and among the rich. The moneyed classes He or dodge so that the comptroller recommends a new in heritance tax. ' It is truly significant that such a law is felt to be necessary to compel the rich, to pay tax upon their property. They make false returns.' A country's greatness does not depend upon how many dollars and cents it can count, but upon how many genuine men it can count. A country that man ufactures and exports very extensively and its-men "lack honor and truth and morality and a "sense of right, coupled with high patriotism, is still poor in deed. ' 1 : . . Major McKinley does not seem to be making any fatal mistakes in his ap pointments. Baltimore Herald. Wait." The . appointees have not got to their places yet. Four years more will telLabout "fatal mistakes." He is makiuf'fatal" blunders in his higher robber tariff. They will add "to the deep damnation of his taking off." We are not one of the Wilson wor shippers the ' man who coached, the democratic tariff and helped so much to make it a protection scheme. He has" been writing of the infamous McKinley-Dingley marplot, and says very truthfully that "a fAmer is invited to membership in a protective combina tion where he furnishes the means to pay heavy dividends to others, but re ceives himself a non-dividend paying certificate of membership onlyl" ' Isaac S.. Dement is reported the fast est stenographer now in the world. He has taken 402 words in a minute did it recently, at Quiney. An account of him says: "Mr. Dement looks upon stenography as an art and a science, as well as a profession. He has been making hooks and curves since he was a boy, and has yet" to find the individ ual wlio can dictate faster than he can write. All public speakers are alike to him, .in that he has never met one who as much as bothered him." The American commerce has been lost to a very great extent, and the re publican party is alon responsible for the decay. The great tariff i blower, New York Mail and Express, says: "The tendency is still downward, to ward absolute commercial extinction. In 1881, for instance, there were in the merchant- marine service 3,936 sea going sailing ships, each of 100 tons or more, owned by American citizens and flying the American flag. Today there are only 2,291 such .vessels, a falling off of 1,645 in sixteen years." ' Shame upon the corrupt and incapa ble party that did it! - TO CUBE A COLS IN ONE DAT.

HOME, FOLKS. .ic ' Jolt Among North Carolinians of distinc tion in the remote west, on the Pacific slope, are Rev. Dr. C. B. Riddick, pas tor of the leading Methodist church in San Francisco, Centenary, and Judge Fitzgerald, of Nevada. He is a brother of the highly gifted 'Bishop O. P. Fitz gerald, of southern M. E. church, resi dent at Nashville. Our esteemed 'contemporary, one of ablest in the state.. The Reidsville Weekly, is being "boycotted" 'because of free thinking and free expression. In his last issue he discusses this ques tion "Is the Boycott Christian?" So far from this it is the very essence of intolerance it is the proscriptive spir it that drove the Puritans from Eng- land and Roger Williams from Massa chusetts.. It is the spirit that mal treats, " persecutes, imprisons, and burns for conscience sake and the right of free thought an free speech. It is of the devil and not of the Christ. We despise it as we do any imp of Satan.' The able, fearless editor of The Week ly, Hon. John R. Webster, a loyal Methodist but not hide-bound or preacher ridden, says:' "Professor Holt wrote to indorse the Weekly's contention that not 'only was the Cigarette Trust wrong ; in . prin ciple, but that its gifts to education were really not a help to the Methodist church, since by impoverishing the peo ple it had made it impossible for 'farm ers' boys to avail themselves of Trin ity's advantages. - ' "The question for tfie Methodist church is. Are these things true? If so, ae they right 7 - Instead of meeting Professor Holt in the open and leaving to a fair-minded public to judge between them, a mean advan tage is taken of him; he is denounced as a defamer, of the Methodist church, without even being sent a copy of the paper in which the preachers are call ed on to boycott him. Is this Metfio distic or Christian? It is the argu ment of the rack and thumbscrew.. fl: If it is a good thing to ac cept' trust money for Christian educa tion the Methodist church ought to want to see its example spread to other churches. If it is a bad thing, the members of other churches do well to" cry out against it. "Shut up; it is none' of your business." is- bad philosophy as well as bad manners.
