THE PRESENT .POLITICAL OUT
LOOK. Mr. James Creelman, the able cor
respondent of the New York Journal,
after Investigating political matters
and inspecting: the field, gives as his
opinion "that if the presidential elec
tion were to take place now Mr. Bryan
would be elected" by a decisive plu
rality. Four years ago the plain facts
compelled me to predict Mr. Bryan's
defeat, and I repeated that prediction
almost every day.." -
" His opinion is in accord with that of
other observers of the "signs of the
tlmes the outlook" now and five
or six months hence may very greatly
change. Hill, of New York, is for Bryan
and declares he . will work for him.
There is no hope ..now. of silver being
the chief factor. That is plain; and
Bryan sees it. Creelman says of Hill: ..
"He sees victory in sight for the first
- time since Mr. Cleveland wrecked the
party. Mr. Hill will support Mr. Bryan,

British policy of subject colonies over
shadows all other issues."
Mr. Creelman thinks it would be full
of hazard to change the platform of
1896. The eastern men are fighting for
a change, radical and thorough, in the
platform. Creelman .thinks they will
fall and says that to "bring the body of
the Chicago platform into the conven-
tion ; for mutilation or amendment
"would bring -on a. bitter and useless
fight, in which the conservative men
would be beaten." He thinks there will
be no open fight in the convention over
the financial question. ' He says the
party will be united "at Kansas ity.
He gives this news, and if true it is
hopeful: . ' . - -
"Not only have men like Mr. Hill and
Mr. Croker, who were silent in 1896,
placed themselves earnestly in support
of Mr. Bryan, but thousands and thou
sands of "gold democrats" in . New
York and other eastern .states , who
" voted for McKinley have, returned to
the party which stands for the preser

He reports that eastern democrats
are now" "loyal. We note here that a
leading republican paper, the New
VnrW Prpsa. bui last week, said there
was much doubt as to the republicans
getting the vote this year that McKin
ley received in; 1896. Here is the state
ment, plain and direct, as made by the

Creelman: : " ' ... .
"The change which the ibrutal ;and

"Mr. Bryan has become: a platform

honesty, decency fairness, plain speech
and true Americanism as opposed- to
hypocrisy, corruption, duplicity, eva
sion, imperialism and shameless servi
tude to trust domination.
2 "Mr. Bryan has no. choice for vice
president; I cap say that advisedly."
. There is a movement on the part of
some democrats to start Schley, for the
second place. jThat would provoke a
rreat deal of discussionand the Mc
Kinley-Sampson crowd would exhaust
the dictionary in terms of abuse. Mr,

HOW TO CABBY NORTH CAROLINA
It has been plain to the 'Messenger
for months that . the battle in North
Carolina was to be contested. ' With
the .white -radicals and the Butler
remains It is a simple fight for politi-
1 life. and? the feed-trough. If the
r esroes, or a part ot them, are disfran

There ' will, be an amalgamation, a
fusion.a conspiracy, and it behooves the
white men of North Carolina to get toi j
gether and fight the campaign with a
vigor and determination and pertinac
ity th'a't will lay in the shade all other
campaigns known in NorthCarolina.
Victory must be won and the state
must be saved from the conscienceless,
vandals who prowl and prey for selfish
ends solely.
It is reported by our Raleigh corre
spondent that there is danger of over
confidence on . the part of the demo
crats. Of course : there is danger just
here. It is stated that the organization
of the opposition is simply remarkable
more thorough even than in 1896.
Democrats ought to heed this warning."
If that is so then The Messenger will
take hope that what it has urged in
several, campaigns will be perfected in
this campaign of 1900. it has exhaust
ed paper and patience in trying to have
all the counties for one time really,
systematically, - thoroughly organized.
It has never been done, strange to say,
and it Is a wonder that the state has
not remained all the time ur!der the
heels of Its robbers and oppressors.
Organization of the right kind can
carry the amendment and by a good
majority. Let us see . first,, what
the chances are, and second what or
ganization really means. In 1896, the
vote for judges was democrat, 177,449;
fusion 159,511. The congressional vote
was democrat, 170,649; rep and pop 160,
214. There were ia 1890342,653 .voters.
After eight years of - growth, the vote
in 1898, was 329,960 including all the
fraudulent voting done by the gang.
It is probable, that there were over 40,
000 stay-aways in 1898. There were 12,
693 less votes than" the voting popula
tion of 1890. If the probable increase
in the electorship is made; we think it
not .extravagant to put ..it at 32,307
enough to make the total 40,000. So it
is not extravagant we believe, to say
that there are now fully 40,000 non-
voters to work upon. The probability
Is that the republicans and allies polled
their strength, but leaving 10,000 for
them to capture if they can, we have
30,000 who may be added to the regular
democratic vote if proper efforts are
made to induce them to vote. Here is
a great and profitable field to work in.
As to what is organization we have
so often stated it, that it i3 not neces
sary, we hope, to repeat in full. The
real aim and purpose should be to
bring out every voter in sympathy with
the democratic party or with the white
man's party. To do this, every town.
ship must be thoroughly organized,
with a chairman and working commit
tee of three others four in all. These
should be active, discreet men who will
give time to make systematic household
visits, having free talks with voters.
and then to give the entire election
day to seeing tkat all their voters shall
vote. If we shall think ' it necessary
we will restate the best of all plans,
that of Thomas J. Jarvis ifuPitt coun
ty. It is sure to carry the state if.
worked as he and his committee work
ed it in their county. What was done
so well, .so thoroughly in one county
may be done in all the ninety-seven
counties.
White men this year can afford ,to
give any amount of time and service
to the cause of good and honest and
safe government for North Carolina.
The amendment must be carried. To
do so beyond all peradventure is to or
ganize. To organize is to copy the
system, put in motion in Pitt county
that was so positively effective and de
vised by ex-Senator Jarvis, the chair
man of the county democratic com
mittee.

state democracy, boomed forth this
morning; and as the smoke of its
rapid fire drifted .off, it revealed the
silken folds of the beautiful Aycock
banner jwaving proudly over the city
from its Jofty staff, While the business
centre pi the city was saluted by a
morning concert from the splendid
Dunn cornet band. -
The reat interest in this opening
v:i.-i:paign, and the anxiety on the part
of white men to hear the great issues
discussed by the state candidates, are
evinced: by the great crowds, afoot, in
carriages and wagons and on horse-
back, which have been nocking into
town from all quarters since early
morning. Large bodies of mounted red
shirts from Cumberland and adjacent
counties, especially Harnett, which has
a splendid representation, gathered
according to programme at - the ren
dezvous on St. James square, whence
Captain, J. D. McNeill marshaled the
column! through Green street, Market
square and1 Hay street, halting for a
few moments in front of the Hotel
Lafayette, and thence . making a tour
of the principal thoroughfares of the
city, j
At ll:3Q o'clock a line of carriages
the chariot furnished by Sheriff Burns
for the governor being very elegant
anj beautiful was drawn up to receive
the state candidates, and from that
point the immense concourse of peo
ple, escorted by the Dunn band,
marched to the fair grounds. There an
artistically decorated stand had been
erected for the speakers, the faultless
taste of Miss Maggie Pemberton and
her assistants of the committee being
evinced in the adornment.

lucid and powerful resume of the evils
of negro rule, and the redemption of

Mr. B. J. Kennedy, a representative

leaving it to every Populist to vote ag

Governor Jarvis will address the peo

Raleigh Post.
"North Carolirfians fove conservatism
and truth, and would have , no man
over-state conditions." This was the
key-note of Mr. Aycock's speech, deliv
ered here yesterday, and uttered near
its beginning. He said truljh and he
spoke throughout as one who believed
of the .people whom he addressed what
he had said of him - at thp outset.
HiS argument was "one of exceptional
power; more could hardly have been
said by any man on the same subject
within the same length of time: But
the best that could be said h- written
of this speech is that it was elevating
uplifting in its character, it was pitch
ed upon a high key and one jfelt him
self a better North Carolinian . and a
better citizen for having heard It. Too
much of our political speaking in North
Carolina in the past has tended to the
lowering of the public mind. Char
