Salisbury Truth. J fin deed and in truth it3 a very gertinent question to ask, since our rk-nioeaadc friends try so hard to V make it appear that there is real danger of negro denomination in CNjrlh Carolina. We will be fiank i enough to admit, that there are f -terrain counties and towns in ea-s-Ktera Carolina where it is possible : for the negroes to dominate, and we jpave asked onr Democratic friends Repeatedly to tell the people why fae last Democratic legislature did 4vot avail iteelf of that decision ren- fiereded by a Kepublicon Supreme k'ourt, reported in the 121st N. C. .vleport entitled Harris vs. Wright, vender that decision the legislature ould have passed laws placing vccy town and county in the east Vhei e the negroes can coutrol.undeH 3 lute rule. Now, why did you not do it? The answer is obvious V: A:id too plain to admit of argument 7 Ton wanted to get all the offices in y the State, right or wrong, and yon Jjiii 1 not want to settle this negro qucs ion, for its a fine hobby for y onr political denicgegues to ride in office on. Few white Eepubli f cans, we dare say, would have ob- iected to a measure of thjg- kind tngested, for we gftf' opposed to negro denomination, and we are aware of the fact so far as North Carolinafas a State, is concerned, negraJonomination is an imposai-i'j&rs- Now be bonest. enough to simitand say tbat you have andjare attempting to deceive and mis lead the people on this question. You are well aware of the fact, that If the people are not misled and deceived on this Constitutionali Amendment question, and with a fair and honest election, tnere is no chance for its adoption. This you w ell know and that is why you tare plaesd on the statute books one of the most partisan and dis honest election laws, that ever dis graced an honest and enlightened constituency. Why do we say sot Because one of your eastern ballot box staffers wrote a letter while the legislature was in session and ad- fvoeatcd a constitutional amend- ment and further sa id "By all means give us a strong election law so we Jean carry it." Did not some of rour high priests assert in their peeches in the legislature that kree and fraud had been resorted .and that they were tired of itl r'es, all honest men are tired of ind its going to be ended one of le days, for the great common te are not going to submit to :ratic high handed force and sand always, in order that a few may feed at the jxpense, regardless of the id liberties of the people ing before it is too late, ills of the gods grind Lceedingly fine." tro was w hat you want i of, why did you try to t office held by a Re- Populist! Explain Lease, the people want .cannot muddy the hide behind the j rjada, from the; righteous indignation of an outrag ed people. Stand square for the right.and then you can ask Eepub licans to endorse your acts. Ah! indeed! "Some trifling white people who seem to think a white man almost as good as a ne gro, and get down in the ditch with the nero in political and social 0 matters." Did a Democrat ever get down in the ditch with a negro? If it only stopped there we would say no more. Your Democratic ma chine has done more to inspire the negro with his importance than the Republicans could have ever hope to do. Whv riarht here in Davie your beautiful White Supremacy fellows have been trying for years to get the negroes to demand offices of the Republicans, have advised them to demand it. They have en couraged and advised them to put up a negro ticket here in old Davie, fkey succeeded in Forsyth County. We heard a Democrat tell how they managed it. They got a negro law yer to run for the legislature paid him for it of course and a leading Democrat of the State posted the negro on what to say in his speech es. Yet you hollow niger! nigger! nigger! at the Republicans, when if Mie whole truth was known and published, it would make the hon est common people ashamed of this demagogic cry of nigger, just in order to raise a race preju dice, and get the votes of the un suspecting.. Your sling about sthe goodness f white men and the negro has no terror for us, for if a Republican jan get down any lower, and place aiinseif on a greater equality with rhe negro, than some of your white sup'remaey xeliows can an id do, trot aim cut and we will him 'throrao. Quit your partisan mud slinging at your equals, if not in many in stances superiors,and discuss these questions on a high plane. Let us use reason common sense and logic, :id not petty slings about the' nig ger I- as you term him, forwe dont like to see it in any paper, Democrat ic cr Republican. We can meei you with reason and logic, and pre fer it. The people want to hear reason for these things, not abuse and mud sli aging. Be ashamed, and do better. Statesville Landmark. Wbelftrr1 or not tj23-&gj&y-& noT" enjoying prosperity is a question that is viewed from different standpoints by different people. But one fact that eai.1 aardl Jbe questioned, stands out couspicious: Tiiere is more money in the country today seeking investment than ever before. Bonds find ready sale at a low rate of in terest and an abundance of money can be had for almost any kind of safe and relible investment. Its awful hard for you Democrat ic editors to come squarely ?it and admit that she is here.Be frank and sayiyes. The world do move"but Democracy is a Bourbon in every thing but election laws and const i tutional amendments. The Raleigh Post says that since May 1 the Southern Railw iv has ordered 22 locomotives, 1,000 boJ cars, 17 passenger cars, and 1,500 tons of steel rails and over $100,000 worth of steel bridges. The above shows which away the wind blows. Some Democratic ed itors in commenting on the pros perity which i s sweeping over the country, tries to make it appear that prosperity has come in spite of the Republican policy. . The Re publican party is certainly not do ing anything to retard or keep it back. Its a progressive party and its leaders are wedded to a policy that will build up our own country, leaving others to look i out for themselves. A special from Havana, June 6, says: Gen Gomez has issued a J maintain peace, concord and unity, i to the end of establishing the re public of Uuba Dy peacetui means, in accordance with the American phjn. He says that these are his n '- wnnla aa Via is i.Viint. fn wfuvtt home to live among nis iami'y anu ... "i - i friends in San Domingo. The last words of the manifesto are: "Good bve. Wherever I may be I will be the friend of the Cubans." Gomez's secretary says Gomez will leave for sn Domingo Juno 2D, '' Where does the Observer stand!" demands the Wadesboro Messenger-Intelligencer. To find this out, read the paper. It stands for the State Democracy. It stand for the national Democratic party as it was before 1896, but not so much of its platform of that year as declared for free silver and pandered to lawlessness. The pres ent unparalleled prosperity of the the country under the gold stand ard is its justification for its oppo sition to free sil er, and respect for law and order is its own justifica tion. The Observer stands where the Messenger-Intelligencer stood in '92 and J88 and ;S4,and on back, and where it will stand again in 1904 and on forward, when the na tional Democratic party will have sobered up and got back to base. A waiting world is informed by our Wadesboro contemporary that the Observer has made "no formal announcement of a change of heart . ' ' That is because it has experienced none. When it does, it will make the formal announcement p. d. q., and meantime its various guardians ad litem and administrators de bo nis non with the will annexed will find it at its old stand,sometimes cast down, but never dismayed; with no idea af going anywhere, and no fears that it will not some day find itself again in good society and lots of it. The above we clip from the Char lotte Observer, one of our exchang es. Bro. Caldwell is one of the a blest editors in the State, and we endorse every word he says abou the prosperity of the country under a gold standard, and he will find us commending his brave, fearless stand for law and order. He takes ao stock in the calamity wailers,who are out of a job and depend upon arraying one class against another for pevsonal'aggrandiziment. "An honest man's the noblest work o" God." STATE IBWS. About 100 barrels of whiskey are idvertised to be sold the 17 th by the deputy collector at W ilkesboro. Lexington Dispatch: A fish weighing 71ij pounds and measur ing six feet two inches in length, captured on a fall trap near 3taifor:l"s mill, 0)i the Yadkin river last Wednesday. The fish was kept aiive until Thursday and over a hundred persons went to see it .The skin will be stuffed and placed on exhibition at some store, probably W. R. Cavrick?s, in the -southern part of the eou??tyT This is the largest js2f we ever heard of being caught out of the Yadkin river. The Dispatch says that M. wV Barber brought five hawk3, captur ed by some of his tenants, to town, and received the legal fee of twen ty five cents apiece for the scalp of each hawk, f A good idea. If our last legislature had offered a bounty for the scalps of hawks, they would have done much more good than ail the laws, etc., that they enacted for the protection of birds. Hawks kill more birds than do the hunters. This would also protect our farriers' chickens. Ei. Rec ord. The Salisbury Sun says; It would surprise the unitiated to know the amount of business dorse on the yards at Spencer and Salis bury. -Tvo one wtio nas not rail-: roaded would be apt to guess that 27,000 freight cars are handled du ring a month by the yardmaster and his crews. Yet during the iast month the number exceeded that. Yardmaster Frost who keeps a rec ord of all ears and trains handled, figured up his last month's work last sight. He found that 1912 freight trains, made up of 27,147 cars, were handled, and that the number of passenger trains was 802 composed of J, 021, . coaches. The total c amber of trainsihandled were 2,714, and the total number of cars Wtjrej31,168, This makes an aver age of over 87 trains, 1,000 cars per day. THE APPETITE OF A GOAT.

WASHINGTON LElTEP. From our Regular Correspondent. Washington, June, 9, 1899. President McKinley attended the encampment of the United Daugh ters of the Confederacy, held Et Glen Echo, near Washington, onl TTT 3 1 . rm - ' vv ounesuay ana inursaay. Tne encampment would have been a fail ure in point of attendance had not a fair crowd of Washingtonians turned out.The first day, which was on the programme as "Virginia Day" was a failure anyway. "Ma ryland Day" the second, which was attended by the President and a a number af prominent men, was little better, but neither was suc cessful enough to warrant the hold ing of another encampment in the vicinity of the National Capital. If Col. Henderson could have heard all the good words that have been said of him since it became certain that he would be unanimous ly nominated by the republican caucus for Speaker of the House,he would have realized how popular he is. It is no disparagement of the other gentlemen who were can didates before the sentiment of the Republicans of the House was so overwhelmingly expressed for Col. Henderson, to say that no better choice could possibly have been ma3e. He has every qualifi cation needed to make a good Speaker, and he is so well acquaint ed with the. merits ?fthe old mem bers that he can arrange all the com mittee assignments before Congress meets, or neatly all of them, and being entirely free from pledges to any one, he can make his selections strictly upon merit, something that every Speaker has not been able to do. It does not take much to build a rumor in the atmosphere of Wash ington. Just because Ex-Speaker Reed did not send his resignation as a Representative ; to the Governor of Maii.e before leaving for Europe, the Washington rumor-mongers built up a long story alleging Mr. Reed's intention to retain his seat in the House inadditioa to his mem bership in that New York law firm. One of Mr. Reed's strongest points is his thoroughness and thorough ness and that story do not gee at all. An influential delegation of Mis souri republicans came to Washing ton this week to protest against the intention of Superlntecdant Mer rian, of the Census Bureau, to give half the Census Su pervisors for the State to the Democrats. Ex Representative Frank, one of the Delegation, handled the subject without gloves when he said: "Im agine a Democsatic Census Super visor giving half of the best offices at his disposal to republicans. The thing ia absurd. We have not yet reacted the political niiUe;mi um. and when that golden era dawns there will be no further need of opposing parties. Until then it is but nafral and right for the party in power to administer the government, and It-can do so most effectually through thegSn- cy of its partisans. Missouri is a i State in which the Republiaan par ty needs encouragement from the national administration. Under such conditions we do not believe that the Democrats are entitled to share in the offices, which, if given them, will be used for party pur poses in the cumpaign of 1900: It is chivalous not to exterminate a foe but I fail to see the wisdom of giving your- enemy a club which he may use for your own destruction." A number of protests have been re ffiived from Bemiblicaus of other States against the division policy, but so far as known that policy has not changed, but the President has it under consideration. Col. George R, Peck,a prominent western railroad man, said of the sentiment in his section: "The most universal sentiment of western country is in favor of sustaining the policy of President McEinley. Ev en those who are opposed to the idea of colonial possessions arepa f. intip. finoi:?h to savthat the cir- .cirastancegof the case forbid our leaving the Phillippmes.ior to doso would make us the laughing stock of the nations. The great body of American citizenship is in hearty accord with the McKinley adminis tration on this question, and all the Atkinsons of the land couldn't swerve this honest mass, which are the bone and sinew of the Republic. And any party that attempts to make political capital by adverse caiticism of the administration's course will be ground to pieces, as it deserves. In such times as this the President is the leader of the whole DeoDle.and to take issue with him on any pretext is un American anduupatnoti a Liberal Offer.

THIS COLUMN IS OF SPECIAL INTER EST TO FARMERS. Cabbage Maggot. Take one pint of salt to two and one half pint of water, dissolve, and put one pints of the wa':er to each plant c'o .e up to the stalk so that it covers all the roots. That will kill all the worms,and make the cabbage grow. For club-root in cabbage use one teaspoonful to every plant when setting out in the ground. Time tc Cut Trees to Prevent Sprouting. Just at the time of the most rapid growth of the season is the time when trees that are cut are least liable to sprout. This will be about the 28th of June. The trees store up food in the trunk branch es, twigs and roots during the lat ter part of summer, which material starts the growth of spring; but this is largely used up by the 1st of July, so tha if trees are cut then they have little or no food stored up to start new buds. However some trees, as willows and poplars, will sprout a little when cut at the time recomended, but the sprouts will be weak and easily killed. As to conditions and prospects in the tobacco and cotton growing States they can be briefly summari zed as follows: The farmers hare had, and are yet having, a very hard time, yet conditions are more favorable than they were one year ago. Existing conditions then re quired the strictest economy to meet the most pressing obligations. The result has been that the strict econ omy practiced then has been sup plemented by a slight advance in the prices of most of the farm pro ducts, so that the present outlook is a much more favorable one. . The low price of cotton is induc ing thousands to grow less of it and to grow more grain for food and more hay for stock. The use ofj cotton seed meal as stock feed is 031 the increase. Oar farmers are finding out by the bitter experience f the past that the selling of cot ton seed to the mills direct; instead of feeding it to stock on the farm, has been a policy that should be uo longer pursued. They are be ginning to realize that the best wajr h to feed it to the stock, thus re tain ng all the fertilizing materials possible on the farms.
