II said that It was plain that no political nartr oonld continuously xist for so great a length of time without a sufficient cause, and that the permanence of the great Demo cratic party is due to the fact that it is a party of. the peopJe. This was illus trated by many examples. On the 15th of August, 1894. Judge Winston declared that the Democratic Congress passed an act taxing all in comes exceeding $4,000 a year nd the incomes Of COTDOTfltions -whih trm leca than $4,000 a year; that this just law was approved by a Democratic Presi ded; that It was estimated that under Its provisions $30,000,000 of - revenue would be raised each year; that this large sum, if divided among the States, would have larpely Inereasod the reve nues in North Carolina's treasury; that if it had been devoted to the building of good roads in North Carolina it would In a few years have constructed a mac adam road from Edenton to Mnrnhv unci from Wilmington to Reidsville; that this was a just and wise tax; that this Jaw was declared by a Republican Supreme Court to be unconstitutional: that the reasoning of the court in arriving at this conclusion was not satisfnetorv. and that it required 340 printed pages to explain the result they finally arrived at. Again, the. Republican party is a long ways from the people because of the cor rupt use of money employed by Its "heelers" in carrying elections. A few years a-go it was well understood that if, the rich corporations did not open their pocket-books to the Republican party, this samo party would "fry the fat" out of them: and six yeaTs ago working men in factories In the West and in the East were given to understand that if they did not march under the McKin iey banner they would hare to march out of the factories. What a pitiable spectacle the United States presents in itfMreitment of Cuba! We drove ths Spaniards from Cuba be cause of cruelty, and now we refuse to trade with Cuba on equal terms or to permit her to trade with other countries upon equal terms. If tho accounts from that Island, as given In the newspapers, lx correct; and if the Presidont of the United States be correct, the Republican party Is scarcely less cruel to the Cu bans, than the Spaniards were. lsut the Iemocratic party is the party eon or Lincoln or Garfield or Arthur ever went we conclude, we must con clude that they have not changed their principles. And when we hear their leader and chit, their chosen President, in a public address, speak to his people ami Kjrjr tJiaC jour lamer and mine and youT brothers and mine who sealed thir devotion to the land of the South by laying down perhaps a Qife in the cause, that these brave, true and good men, in the very act and fact of so doing and daring nd fighting and dying, were engaged in deeds of anarchy we come together in sorrow around the graves of the dead, and we say one to another, almost with tears, let thpm Tint trnrrtTilo here, let them keen awav from this sacred spot. And we almost swear that we will not rote with this oartv or affiliate with their leaders, who traduce and insult us nay. not even if by so doing qur pockets shall burst with most unrighteous money. The Republican DartV in rrrtli fn"rn- lina has raised the specious cry of rings i ujiu extravagance. xij generally the cry of the demagogue who seeks to start a new political movement without sufii cient excuse. They charee extra rnnp upon the Democratic paTty in North Carolina, and when asked to specify they have not the nerve to sav whnt they mean. It is not the paltry sum hallA No "sooner had tha welcome been said than the doors were barred, the side of the house opened back and a thousand armed minions of Spain rushed out and disarmed the guests; On. the morrow the heads of Horn and Egmont rolled upon the greensward. In less than a dozen moons a son of the mar tyred Count of Egmont, all need .by office and place and gold, was. himself a con vert to Spain and an enemy to his fatherland. Is his' name held in execra tion in the fatherlands? If history speaks aright, it is, and it is to be until the end of time. , .

It is not the Increase of judges and the increase of the governor's salary that they attack.. They know that if it requires fourteen judges to transact the business of on? and a half millions of people and one hundred and seventy-five millions of money in 1892, it takes six teen to perform in 1902 the same duties by one and three-fourths millions of peo ple and two hundred millions- of wealth. They know that if Governor Russell, who rarely left his home in Raleigh, wp.s worth to the State $3,000 a vear, Charles B. Aycock, the gallant, broad, just educational governor of this great commonwealth spending his time, his energy, his brain and his monev for the little children of Dare and Cherokee was and is worth the increase. No, it is not these things that they attack, though they so declare. These are but the sma-11 things that make up the State's expense account. It is really Confeder ate pensions and school appropriations that they attack. Do we not even hear Abe Mlddleton, the negro doorkeeper of a Republican Tlouse, as he supplants a one-legged soldier, declare that the Con federate soldier has played out? Do we not recall tha fact that when they had charge of our State affairs they closed the doors of the University and that education languished? There is indeed one item of Axpgnse to .wirfqh the Repub lican Jeadeia iii North do really and seriouply object. Thev object -to the payment of aioney to defend the Demo cratic election officials in North Carolina i who were indicted in the Federal Courts : for violating ethe election laws in 11)00. These men were they who made possi-' me tne passage o our constitutional amendment, llad they not been fearless and intrepid, had they but shown for a moment the white feather, the hordes of negroes In -North: Carolina would have overrun th? polls and driven the whites away and the same old question of negro a state of unrest, the Republican national party is the more torn of the two. in less than three months Mr. Roosevelt, who is an honest and courageous man. will lack the enthusiastic support of Mr. Hanna and men of his kidney, and a level-headed candidate named by us will again fill the White House. Then extravagance will cease. We will ay to the Philippines in plain words that '"You shall he free and independent as soon as you are fit for the same. The traditions of the fathers shall be honored. The. excellent fruits of educational seeds now sowing in our county institutes and from pnlpit and press and stump in North Carolina shall be gathered to bless us and our children for all time. The blessings of peace shall be ours and the South, true to her past, yet alive tn herr future, shall continue to occupy that happy middle way between great and inflicted most fatal wounds. After this ho turned 'his powerful batteries upon the adminietrattcm , of affairs in this State by ;i!he Republicans in '96 and '98, and he 1 bombarded theJr . vulnera ble works witi teTTibl,effactiLvenes.sJ and left them in lamentafcwreck and rrf;n.

Since 1S72. when the Democratic party came into powof in North Carolina, what has it done for the people of this State? It has given us first of all neace and law and order. It has strengthened onr free schools and given to each a four-months term. There have been no scandals in the adminis tration of its affairs. Our governors, senators, judges, congressmen and legis lators have been clean, honest and faith ful public servants. We have had no strikes as in Pennsylvania, no riots as in Ilaymarket in Chicago, no feuds as in Kentucky, and we have just and eonitable laws. Why should not my $100 In money pay a tax just as well as the horse which you own, worth $100? North Carolina has an income tax. Every cent above $1,000 a man makes' is taxed one per cent by the State. If I make $0,000 a year I pay an income tax of $50. So. under Democratic ad ministration in North Carolina the rail roads have been taxed, ' and under a Democratic governor a suit was brought which took th Coast Line Railroad from the free list and put it upon the tax list, thereby putting thousands of dollars each year into the treanrv, and distributing the burden of taxation. But the great thing this, party has done, in much tribulation, hedged about by opposition and bitter white enemies, is to preserve Anglo-Saxon civilization in isortn Carolina and in the South. You, men of Alamance, know what this means. You Tememher the day when th insolence of negroes became unbear able. You met, yon organized, you swore a Moody oath. The great Ku-Klux or ganization was born. It was decreed that North Carolina was to be a white Stare. Yon said that you would not run. and that yon would not knuckle or bow the knee no. not to a dark and an inferior tscc. neither to a tyrannical and overhearing political party, the Radi cal party; and your boldness yea. the boldness of men of Alamance and Or ange and Caswell and Cleveinnd and Rutherford excited the admimti- wonder of the civilized world.

Let us note, my friends, that the Republican .leaders show the cloven foot when they attack this appropria tion. If th?y really accepted in good faith the constitutional amendment, they would not now be quibbling .and quarrei ing as to how it was passed. No, sirs, they do not approve of the amendment or of the manner of its passage, and so they begrudge even the small sums which were paid to" defend the gallant fHlows who stood on the firing line in 1S08 and 1900 when the battle waged the fiercest. They may com-? to us with honeyed words and promises of reform and they may ask our votes, and. thinking that our memories are short, our blessings these are but springs to catch wood cocks. The Democratic party recognizes them and shudders, for she knows that the voice is Jacob's, but the hands are the hands of Esau! ( rrnptend Incapable The Republican party was tried in 1S0S and in 1S70 and was found cor rupt and incapable. It made a bid for votes in 1MM and again it won. The people in large numbers voted with the Republicans;' they said that the crimes of 1868 were buried by the statute of limitations, and they tried the Kepub Means again. With what result let the laws of ISOo and 189 declare. I will not undertake to Tepeat that dark and terrible history. You know it, and you will not again be fooled Into voting with that party. When they took away the charters of Wilmington and Greenville they traveled along the same way which cost Charles I. his crown and his head. What a party, to be sure, is this Re publican party in North Carolina! It says "You come vote with us, for we ourselves' are for. the constitutional amendment! True, we fought it on the stump and in the press when it was a burning issue. Trae, we did all that we could to kill the amendment, but we failed, MaTk Hanna's money and Crumpacker's force bill to the contrary notwithstanding: and now we are for it. Come, vote with us." Sirs, we doubt your sincerity! You are too new a convert to -white supremacy to be a teacher and a leader. But even if we could trust you; what do you take us for, to suppose that we. would be guilty of this act of ingratitude? The great Democratic party in 1899 and in 1901 wrought out the Herculean task of un doing the wrong which your party thirty: five years ago, through the thirteentn, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution of the United State", perpetrated upon the chivalrous people of the late Confederate States.

The batr-l-e was joinded in 1900. and i vention at Lexington recently. He eaJd that it was no greater surprise to any one in the district than to himself, that he had expected opposition, and for many reasons preferred it. He declared himself in absolute har mony, not for policies' sake, but be cause of deen- iconviction wJth Demo cratic ideas and ideals; that he wanted all the votes he could get, but not one under false pretence, or by any' sort of deception. He served notice on any Republicans who might hear him, and said he wanted, through the press, to serve it upon every one in the district, that in, the campaign upon which, he was entering he should with all the zeal and earnestness" of his being advocate Democratic doctrine, and in the 58th congress, while ready to do anything in his power for any one in the district he should advocate, work and vote for only those measures that are in har- monv' wiith xhe Democratic platform, not in a spirit of opposition, but be cause he believed these things to be right and for the best interest of all the people, He then dsvoted twenty minutes to State .politics, comparing the adminis tration of public affaiirs under the last two Democratic legislatures and Demo cratic State officials with the Fusion legislatures of '95 and '97, and Gov. Russell's reign. Instead of making any apology for haviDg 6pent a million dol lars more than did the Fuskmists, he clciimed it was the glory of Democratic rule, since it was spent for the educa tion of the children of the State, the increase of pensions to Confederate veterans, and the care of the State's un fortunate. And the ability to do all this without having increased nhe rate of taxation one mill was an everlasting monument to the business ability of the present administration. Entering npon a discussion of national affairs1 he discussed at some length and placed particular emphasis upon the growth , of combinations, gigantic in their financial power, and showed that they had the majority of the legislative branch of the government by the throat; that government supervision would not reach the case, but ithat the only rem edy was in such reduction of tariff du ties on , trust made goods as to bring the price to the Amenican consumer down to that of the price paid by 'the foreigner. He produced facts and figures to show that a long list of necessary things to manufacturer and farmer wer sold by American manufacturers of them from 25 to 70 per cent cheaper abroad than they were here at home, j , He .denounced the policy of the Re publican party in its dealings with Cuba and declared the-treatment of tne i'ati- Antinal Bxenritoa ta NrroIk, Ta Tia Santnern Railway.
