AMENDMENT BILL.
The ouestion of the amendment
is
having a
liberal discussion
through the
papers of the day.
The friends of Ihe bill, too,
are
apparently increasing as the meas-
id clearly presented to the pub
lic. It is a tntter of deep interest to
the white citizens of North Caro
lina. The bill should have the
support of every one of them. A
correspondent to yesterday morn-
signature, 'Unus," makes: the
following earnest appeal to the
- white men of North Carolina to
support it:
Why it is that any white man in
North Carolina, unless he wants
an oflSce, will vote against the
amendment, I, for one, cannot un-
uerstana. l uon c neueve mnnv
of them will: If any do, they
should be ostracized by all good
white people. They' deserve de
testation and should receive it, of
all of us who want purity in poli
tics. We, of the good old State
of North Carolina, how have a
chance to build up her latent in
dustries and those who oppose the
amendment only retard them.
WThite ., men of North Carolina,
r0 m O oo nna man anil f rno trmir

State from ignorance. You all
know that this grand 6ld Common
wealth has suffered enough by it,
and now when you have a chance,
use it. These chances do not. come
often. Possibly this will be our
only chance, then use it. Think
dear people intelligently, and if
you do you will all come up to
the voting precincts and vote
as white" men should. Bestir
1 - r ' g- i ' . ...
yourseu. i our uou is witn
us because He wants purity.
Our women are with us, our chil
dren are; then, pray, why are you
not? Well, I guess you will be.
You have no good reason not to
bo. Then, of course, you will
come because you want to see all
things bettered, which, if we car
ry the amendment, you will see.
Now, have ho excuse but sickness;
if you do, your children will al
ways think strange of you, and if
you vote for them, they will al-
M ..11
rather have their blessings than
' their censure. I have read that
a father feels better after he has
done some great good for his off
springs. Now you know that
there would be no greater cause
for you to espouse; then espouse
it and get the plaudits of your
mother, wife, sister, and children,
backed up by your white, friends.
Have no excuse, for none you
hare. Array ' yourself among
those you esteem and help them in
this, the greatest political battle
they have ever engaged in. Be
wise as you wouici want your
ildren to be by showing them
that you are at
