The Evening Telegram BY - The Greensboro Publish Co. B. F. BEASLEY, EDITOR. Offlce aouthside of McAdoo House b tiding-, downstairs. Entrance on South Elm Street. TKKMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: one year, tx months. Three Months, . ne montt. One Week t4 X 2.00 1 00 .8 .0 SATURDAY, FEB 24. 190'. THE TELEGRAM TM'S EVENING We desire to call attention to this evening' issue of the Telegram. Per haps it carries more solid reading matter of a first class order than any previous regular issue of a daily pa per in Greensboro has ever done "Obiter Dicta," is a very thoughtful running comment on the books of the the product of a studious and observant mind, as is easily seen. The interview with the trained nurse of the wounded man, Hummel, is reading of both general and local interest, while the , communication of "Enquirer" should be provocation of a healthy, resonable, and fair discus sion of the all important subject of the city's future water supply. The arti cle on the amendment by "Teacher," is a very valuable campaign docu ment, published for the first time in today's Telegram. The news columns have the current subjects. We propose from this time to make a special Saturday edition, which will contain, beside the news of the day, articles on current subjects of interest, written in a style that will appeal to the thoughtful readers of the paper. While we propose as soon as possible to make a much more valuable num ber on each Saturday, there will be no additional charge. THE POST AND THE NORTH CAR OLINA SlIUATIuN. Copying what The Telegram said concerning its views on the proposed amendment to theconstitutionof North Carolina, the Washington Post of yes terday remarks: We shall not argue the question of The Post's alleged errors of opinion further than to insist that, if they te er rors, they are at least honest ones. The point of view is everything in such a case. The Evening Telegram, like its Newberne contemporary, feels and spea'ks-as a party organ. It real i se at its full value Jhe dasher of the ig norant and vicious vote c ntrolled by the political adversary. The Post, on the other hand, speaks and feels as a sincere friend of the south, and believes that the section's best and highest in terests would be promoted by limiting the franchise to the intelligent and re sponsible classes, no matter by what party uame they may call themselves It does not seem to us that any great ly enduring advantage will be securea by elimina-ing the dangerous and de moralizing element in one party an J retaining it in the other. The question is not or should not be the suco of this or that political organiz uiol It should be tae purification of tb ballot-box of the source and fojn-tain-head of government. The Greensboro Telegram is quite right in assuming that the Post i.- de voted to the welfare of the souih. Tbt Post, however, is not a party organ It considers only the public good ai d the integrity of our political institu tions. Passing the Post's mistaken idea ttat The Telegram either feels or speak- ic this matter as a party organ, we must challenge the Post's assumption that the amendment would eliminate the dangerous and demoralizing element in one party and retain it in another This is not the case, and therein are we convinced that the Post is misiakea in its understanding of North Carolina conditions. .In the first place, the illit erate white vote in this State, whicr the Post thinks is dangerous and de moralizing, and hence puts it in wit! the black vote which is both, as well as vicious, is neither. True it is i. liter ate, but it has character, responsioil ity, and possibility of great develop ment. The illiterate white population of North Carolina doubtless hold the same place In the Post's mind a the corrupt white vote in the nortren cities. Nothing is farther from tb truth. Furthermore, a large part of this class votss the republicai ticket, and hence the Post'e argumcn cannot hold good. We desire to curtail the negro vou. not because it it cast for the republi can ticket, but because it is vicious and irresponsible, and is lined up ic local elections, not on party lints, but against whatever the intelligencj acd character of the community feels is the best for the township, county o' state. We want the time to come whet it is not necessary for the brain-j and backbone of the community to epend labor, time, and money to defeat e few vicious white men, who for person al reasons, are leading the sMd, uc thinking, corrupt, mass against the peace and prosperity of a given local ity. Nobody in the south carts hov often and how long the negro votes t national republican ticket, but whu he blindly follows any kind of a mat: who is opposed to the respec'abilit; and conscience of the locality a thinf which illiterate white people will no do W3 think he proves himself igno--ant, corrupt, and vicious, and as one who likes fair play, wee an but believe thatif there ever is any salvation for the negro it is in largely depriving him of his vote in -the legal way, so that he may turn his thoughts in other lines. We direct the Post's attention to an article elsewhere in this paper Igned "Teacher." UNFETTERED. , Our very interesting and able cou temporary, the Charlotte Observer, in an issue of a day or two ago, said some kind things about the new editor and manager of the Telrgram, which are appreciated. And in the same connection it made some remarks which led us io think it had over looked a certain resolution passed last week by the stockholders and directors of the Telegram. -And desiring that the public shall fully understand the position which the paper proposes to occupy, we herewith reproduce in full the remarks of the present manage ment in assuming formal control last Monday: "At the meeting of the stockholders of tne Greensboro fublisnlng com pany, las'. Saturday, wren the organi zation of the company was completed, the f II owing resolution was unani mous'v adopted: " "Resolved, That it is the sense of the s'. ckbolders of the Greensbon Publ'shing Company that the Greens boro Evening Telegram shall be demo cratic in politics, but with a self-re-sp cting independence and not blindly partisan; that it shall not be the mouth piece of any individual, or set or cir cle, nor the organ of any class or sect or institution, but tne nonest expres sion of the best sentiment and the broadest intelligence of the commu nity; that it shall not avoid all eniang ling aliianc s and every influence from whatever source that may lend to nar row its range of view or embarrass the exercise of an absolute independence; that in the discussion of public ques tions it shall sound no uncertain uote and be found on the side of right, be the question political, social or morai; that it shall have for its constant anu primary aim the best development of tne educational, social and industrial interests of Greensboro and -iuilford county.' "ine management deems tins an nouncement sudicieat explanation of the existence and purpose of the paper ana nence has little to say. ' A paper run on eucu. a basis is the only kin that is really wurtn much to a community, but one thus run is of incalculable beueht. if the time ever should come when it is impossible to run the Telegram on this basis, tue shop will be shut up. "E-ery individual, whatever his views, snail have a fair show in the Telegram, and courteous treatment at its nands." Kansas City's free entertainment, with band accompaniment, seems to have appealed more forcibly to the ex ecutive committee than Milwaukee's German-American vote argument in Washington Thursday. Will Succeed. After copying editorially tve reso lution passed by the stockholders of Greensboro Publishing company, and the announcement by the paper last Mocday as to its course, The Raleigh Po6t say: Mr. R. F. Beasley has taken charge, and under such directions and upon such an excellent platform, the Tele gram has the best wishes of the Post. Col. C. H. French. Is one of the leading educators of the Uni'ed States. A gentleman of ripe and exclusive experience in the management of schools, a traveler of national reputation, and a lecturer hose fame has reached every region if our country. He has turned his vast experience as a traveler and ex piorer to the use of the children of our schools, believing that he can mike his knowledge of people and t ieir surroundings, their customs lives, civilizations and manners, of greater value to more people than in any other way. State Normal School, Bridgewater, Mass, Col. French has the finest series of pictures we have ever sef n, and gives trie most interesting ad instructive itereopticon lectures we have ever ritard. He gave his "Illustrated Journey through India" to the chil dren of our Model School in the after aoon, and the Normal students and citizens of the town in the evening, sjreatly to the delight of all who heard 'iim.
