We copy th following: timely article from tbe editorial column of the States- ville Landmark: North Carolina ban been more or lews of an issue in the national campaign this .year, RepuMii-an orators all over tbe country have hud much to nay about our ontitutioiiHl amendment, about which they kuow very littU', and at many of Mr. BryanV appointments be i inter- ".' rupted ty Borne Republican auditor who wants to know aboujthe North Caro- lina amendment. Mr. Bryan never fails to turn the tables on bis questioners and before he get through with them they wish they had kept their mouths shut. Mr. Bryan and Gov. Roosevelt, thelatter the Republican candidate for vice-president, have been paying some attention to each other in their public addresses, and a few. days ago Mr. Bryan submit ted a list of questions which he desired Gov. Roosevelt to' answer. The gov ernor answered them la his own way of , course and in return submitted a num ber of questions for Mr. Bryan's consid eration, among them tbe following: "2. Will yon refuse to accept the elec toral voten of North Carolina because obtained without the consent of the gov erned, and will you now at once de nounce tlw action of your party-associates who, helped to nominate you for; estHblinhiiiK by the constitution in North Carolina the doctrine thud one man is! good enough to govern another without bis consent This is dead easy. . We can answer for , Mr. Bryan that he will accept the elec- toral votes of this State, which he is cer tain to tret. As to the consent of tbe governed iu this case, it is not a parallel with the Filipinos, to whom Mr. Roose velt refers. A majority of the . white citi zens of North Carolina adopted the con stitutional amendment which restricts - negro suffrage. In the case of the Fili pino the government of the United States boa gone into a foreign country and taken charge of the affairs of an alien people without their, consent and with out any right whatever except the right of purchase, as if the Filipinos were so many slaves. , North Carolinians are seeking to govern their own their native land as a majority of the white citizens In it may decide, They haven'tgoneout side their own territory and forced a gov ernment on a prostrate and helpless peo ple.

It is esti mated tbat nearly two hundred and fifty thousand persons were gathered in that quarter of the city. Mr. Bryan left next day for a trip through New York state.

As an argument against the Democratic party . this is quite tbe most original of the cam paign, , Mr. Roosevelt's argument, as we gather it, is that every time a Republican has to put up with a bought or stolen presidency he gets even by making war on a helpless people; to avoid this they should be honestly elected.

At a place called Kotron. on tbe French Ivory Coast, the natives b& Ileve that to eat or destroy a turtle would mean death to the guilty one or sickness among tbe family. Thp fetich men, of which there are plenty, declare that years ngo a man went to sea fish- lng. In the night his canoe was thrown upon the beach empty. Three days afterward a turtle came ashore at the same place with the man on Its back alive and welL Since that time they have never eaten or destroyed one of that species, although they enjoy other species. If one happens now to be washed ashore, there Is a 'great commotion In the town. Firstly, the women sit down and start singing and beating sticks: next a small piece of white doth (color must be white) Is placed on the turtle's back. Food Is then prepared and plac ed on the cloth, generally plantains, rice and palm oil. Then, amid a lot more singing, dancing and antics of the fetich people, it Is carried back in to the sea and goes on Its way rejoic ing. - ' Te Ba4dhlat Frleatfed.
