Asheville Gazette-News. Greeting to the Common People. The people doing the great things of life need no encouragement from us, but allow us to Bend our greet ing to the common people, who are doing the common things; who are removing the pebbles from the path way of those who are footsore and are lifting the burden from some weary back. It Is upon the common people, with their common work, that the foundation of life rests. The sun will shine, the flowers will bloom and the mysterious mechanism of nature is carried for the common as well as the distinguished few. The common life Is fall of dignity and beauty, that we In our haste and blindness do not see. When a person once becomes noted through his own exertions or the help of others how ready we are to applaud; but how we are to discover or recognize the qualities that make real heroism in the people who are doing tne worK in obscurity. It may be but com mon work to take your place in the kitchen, behind the plow, in the store, the schoolroom or the shop, but if this work Is taken up each morning without complaining, month after month, it is certainly true heroism, though It is never published abroad. Every person in the great plan of life counts; every life, though secluded and obscure, if well lived, is as kingly as one who sits on the throne, and often far more so. All honorable work is robed with dignity, majesty and power. Durham Sim. Same Old Crowd: Same Old Song: Vi!l be Same Result as Heretofore. The circuit of "Me Too" papers have finally all rounded up to the point of declaring that the appoint ment of McBee as receiver was the good and proper thing, and giving credence to all his billingsgate with out waiting to hear the report of the committee. Every one of the same combine lined up to defeat Bryan In North Carolina; to defeat Clark, to make Russell Chief Justice, to endorse Russell and Butler's South Dakota conspiracy, to defend Bassett's so cial equality and Maasee's incendiary talk, to praise Boyd and Purnell as model judges, and not one of them ever said a word when the Godfrey bond steal outraged the State. They always stand ready to help Republicanism, Graft, Commercial ism, Free Whiskey and allied enemies of North Carolina and theDemocrat- c party. Thank God they are few In num bers and when the "show of hands" comes they are seen by all to be with out influence or power to sway the heart or conscience of the honest and substantial citizenship of North Car olina. In spite of them, Bryan carried the State twice; in spite of them, Clark was made Chief Justice; in spite of them, Russell couldn't land as Chief Justice; In spite of them, the State stands firmly against the wrong of Russell and Butler in the South Da kota litigation; In spite of them, the conspirators who stole the A. and N. Railroad were forced to surrender It; in spite of them, nine-tenths of the good people of North Carolioa, re pudiate Bassett's and Massee's utter ances; In spite of them, the cause of temperance advances with mighty stride throughout North Carolina; in spite of their silence, which could be felt, public opinion compelled the res toration of Godfrey s money; In spite of their nauseating laudation, the State's two Federal Judges have not been placed on pedestals and wor shipped; In spite of their persistent hostility, the Legislature passed the Fuller bill, the demurrage bill and railroad taxation has been Increased; In spite of them, the Govern or Is securlhg a fair Investigation of the A. and N. C. Railroad, for which all fair-minded men are waiting; In spite of them, Finch and McBee who came to grab a railroad, by their as sent or connivance or endorsement, now see the doors of the penitentiary yawning to receive them, unless they can escape by a technicality; and in spite of them, this good State is being conducted by an houest Damocratlc administration, and Is standing as the leader among Southern States as an ideal Democratic Commonwealth, unbought, uncorrupted, unpurchasa ble by trusts, railroads, whiskey ring, or Republicans. The people "kept the rudder true In 1S96; they kept it true when the 'Me Too" papers demanded Clark's defeat; they have kept it true every time the grand circuit of "Me Too" papers have sought to corrupt It or to debanch it. And they will turn a deaf ear now to the systematic effort once again inaugurated all along the line to dishonor the State, and to up hold a midnight conspiracy of sol diers of fortune.
