This market remains steady and reliable, and the buyers have no pets, and tobacco Is bid off truly on its merits. The old way of saving money was to put it in a stocking and hide it in some place that the dullest wltted thief was sure to discover when he came prowling around In the small hours of the morning.

In the Lewis neighborhood there has been considerable excitement among the colored people on account of the nightly visits, of a terrible var mint supposed to have been a cata mount as he would whip out the dogs and take possession of the yards. The excitement ' become so Intense that people were afraid to go out at night. Sunday night the said varmint called at Walter Burt's house and proceeded to give his dog a whipping. The noise brought Burt out of the house with his gun and as the varmint was walking across the yard he pulled away and killed him. The varmint proved to be a large tame fox with a collar and part of a chain on, and was brought to town Monday. So the catamount turned out to be a tame fox. The Best of Friends Must Part.

Fleming, who along with the Presi dent, has of late become susceptible to the charms of lovely woman. It is well said that the best of friends must part and between now and the first of the year it Is claimed that not a single member of this noted club will be left to tell the tale of a bache lor's woes.

In a recent issue of the South At lantlc Quarterly appears an article trom the pen of John Spencer Bas sett, of Trinity College, which Is an Insult to Southern manhood and womanhood. The above magazine is published by Trinity College and should be on a high plane and de voted to the Interests of higher edu cation and the great questions which concern our people outside of sec tional questions and especially ques tions which only stir up race feeling and ferment strife. The time has come in North Carolina when all christian colleges and those connect ed with them should confine them selves to their own work and leave the discussion of such questions to other men. The province of their work is higher and nobler. This virulent article is not only an Insult to Southern people, but is one which will put false and dangerous Ideas into the negroes head Ideas which can never be realized no not so long as true Southern blood la warm and Southern IdetUs of life and purity are not extinct. The express Ion cf such sentiments is dangerous to the safety of our country and es pecially to the black man. Hear some of Mr. Bassett's expressions: in spite of our race feeling, the ne groes will win equality at some time. iNot even a black skin and a flat nose can justify caste in this country." can tnese words mean anything less than social equality? If this be true, as he claims, will not the negroes, under such a hope as this, try to hasten the time? Whenever they do it takes a man with only a small stock of brains to see what the result will be, He who would encourage such an issue Is an enemy to his race and should at once migrate to Bos ton, the hub of social equality. He talks about the "virtues and capa bilities" or the negro. Why should these put him on a social equality witn tne white man? This distinc tion between the races is a God-given one, and he who tries to efface It will and ought to receive only the derision and contempt of his race. The writer of that firebrand surely has forgot ten himself ! Does he not know that there is not and cannot be that so cial equality between the two races of which he speaks? Can any amount of education or polish make the ne gro equal to the white man? Every sensible man in both races knows this cannot be. For our part we would not hold the negro back. Let him make the most of himself he can. He can find companionship in his own race. But let him and his promoter Bassett know of a surety that anything: which even tends towards social equality will never be tolerated in the South. No never ! Notice another absurdity of this article. He says that Booker Wash ington is the greatest man, except General Lee, which the South has is honest In his statement we pity his judgment. He ought to know better. Washington is certainly a negro of marked ability and we be lieve is a good man. We would not do him an injustice, but to call him the greatest man, Lee excepted, that the South has produced in a century is absurd. Does Prof. Bassett mean to say that he is a greater man than W. W. Kitchln, C. B. Aycock, Vance, Ransom, Simmons and that class of men? What great act showing prac tical and constructive statesmanship has he done? To be sure he Is a great leader of his race, a great teacher and an orator of some power, but when this Is said all Is said. We are much concerned that our boys should not be under the tutor ship of a man holding such revolu tionary Ideas as Prof. Bassett, and seriously ask: Do our people wish their children taught such Ideas? Why, this doctrine lies at the very foundation of purity In society. Let the white people give one inch here and miscegenation, degeneracy, race antagonism and many other danger ous and hurtful results will follow. Whenever one compromise is made in this direction, the fabric of society in the South will give way. If social equality In any degree is right, then It Is all right for the races to visit each other. If this Is right, then It Is right for the young people of each race to mingle together, and If this last is right then it naturally follows that social friendships should be formed and marriages between the races encouraged. This proves the fallacy of entertaining such Ideas for a moment. In conclusion we would express the wish that Trinity College, which in some respects is the greatest col lege in the South, may be freed from the political adventurers and wrang lers with whooi it has of late years been afflicted. It is a pity that the money given by the venerable old philanthropist, Washington Duke, should be spent to propagate the views of one so af flicted with negrophalla as Prof. Bassett. The Goldsboro Argus commenting on the Bassett article says: The dining of Booker Washington, the Alabama negro, by President Roosevelt outraged the sentiments of the white people of the South be yond any racial Incident In all his tory in this country; but it has re mained for a North Carolina man and a man, too, hailing from Golds boro, (God save the mark) though not born here, thank God, to out Roosevelt Roosevelt not only in his adulation of Booker Washington, but in giving utterance to views and sentiments on the negro and the ra cial Issues that cause the white peo ple of the State to stand aghast, as If coming suddenly upon a vicious, deadly reptile ready to strike, where they were wont to gather flowers and drink from pure fountains of re freshing water. Prof. John S. Bassett, of the Chair of History in the faculty of Trinity College, Durham, N. C, the great Methodist college of the State, has published an article In the South At- A Runaway Bicycle, Terminated with an ugly cut on the leg of J. B. Orner, Franklin Grove, 111.

In fact everything at Crenshaw's, lantlc Quarterly, of which he is the n M 1 1 . - euiior, m wnicn, under the heading, "Stirring Up the Fires of Race An tlpathv." he dves nttppnn and sentiments about the negro that uo rigntiy naianced white man, with pride of ancestry and hope for pos terity of his own race, could possibly cuensu. 1 ne article m question cov ers four columns of vesfprrlnv'H rsun. day Raleigh News and Observer, auu ih bo outrageous in expression of racial view and erra,t,nir.misj alnn. der UDOn the White mnhrnrl f ha State and the South at large, that wo uuuul 11 we wouia give it place In the columns of the Arens. rvpti if wo had the space to spare; but the gist of It may be divined from this one sentence: "Now WashinQ-tnn 1 itt. er) is a great and good man, a chris tian statesman, and take him all In all the greatest man, save Lee, born in the South in a hundred years." Shades of the great white man hood of the South heroes of the six ties and of reconstrnntinn tlmoa statesmen of the past and present ami uoyes 01 tne ruture, defend us from the too much teachln lng, or what, that has produced this man Bassett, who from the Chair of History In a great Southern college fflves utterance thromrh hla n I1HTTOV. ly publication to the world at large tuat not oniy is a negro as good as a white man, but that no white man has been born in the South in n. hun dred years, with the possible excep tion of General Robert E.

Trinity College Is a great institu tion, and, as is well known, the Argus is and has always been a friend to Trinity; and, as a friend of that college, we do not hesitate to say that its trustees should meet at once ana expel rrom the faculty this man Bassett; for no self-respecting white man would allow his son to remain at Trinity with Bassett in the faculty, and unless ho is removed Trinity Colleare will nass with him Into oblivion. Death From Burns. Mr. and Mrs. Lee Minor, of the Stem section mourn the death of a bright and lovable daughter, Martha Elizabeth, aged 13, which sad event occurred Oct. 20th under distressing circumstances. A few davs before veloped in flames which resulted in her death. Her father was near by and did everything possible to save his dear daughter, and was badly burned about the hands. The suf ferings of the young lady were great, and everything possible was done to alleviate her suffering, but after a brave fight for life she fell on sleep, and Is now numbered with the bless ed around the Great White Throne. In the loss of their beloved daughter the editor joins the many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Minor in extending deep sympathy in the hour of deep grief. Free Fight in a Church. Last Friday night John Allen, Wm. Marrow and Olive Crews met at Cin namon Grove Colored Baptist church, near Tar River, where a meeting was going on It was not long before a row started on the outside and wound up on the Inside, causing the church to be cleaned out. In the fight In the church Wm. Marrow cut John Allen who yanked out his gun and pulled away on Marrow and missed him, but the ball went across the church and struck Phil Wyche, who happened to be standing up, on the right eye just above the bridge bone a glancing blow, Inflicting a painful but not dangerous wound. The fight and shooting created great excitement and the members of the church are using every effort to have the offenders arrested, but up to this writing have failed to do so. The editor truly hopes that every one engaged in this disgraceful affair will be arrested and punishment meted out commensurate with the crime." PERSONAL MENTIONS.
