'ipe 10 om 4 00 par Vk. for four Wck. Porhroar. FRIDAY, JANUARY , im For President 1900: Hon. W. J. Bryan, Of Nebraska. are the the has THE DEMOCRACY AKD TEMPERANCE. There are a few persons, in our city, and some in our State, who are sucli strong ; prohibitionists that they will not favor any party or any thing that is not ultra upon :the question of temperance. These impracticables will not succeed along the lines, nipon which they have proceeded and continue to proceed. ,They fight the air. Yea, yea, !thuy fight the only organiza Ition that can or will give them what they seek. - I The Democratic party ia the friend of temperance. Four fifths of the white people land at, least that proportion . of ;white church members Democrats. Nearly all temperance sentiment, in State, is in that party. It jpassed all the legislation that has restrained the saloons. All the local option acts tho acts incorporating churches and school houpes have been papped by that par ty. The laet legislature, over whelmingly Democratic, a i ' passea prouiDition lor every community, which could ehow a majority in favor of it, and gave a dispensary, to iresirain tne ' sale '.oi mtoxi cants, to every community, 1 f . A !. A wuen a majority oi ine roeo pie desired one. Of cojirae the party is not pledged to prohibition nor, to any ticular action with reference to tho sale of intoxicants; but the party Is pledged to give whatever legislation the majority of any community may favor. That is Denioc racy. Government by (coiiBent and choirs of a ijonty of tin f?ovurned. ItMs the only ftmnrt goverraental idea. Tho iNi)i:x is an anti li paper; but it is Democratic; and would not, if it could, ehut up the wiIooiib and stop the manufacture and salb of intoxicants against the Will jof a majority of the people. ,Such action would be both un-Democratic and unavail ing. The Indkx is set for the defence of . Democmjy and right It contends that the indiscriminate manufacture and sale of intoxicant are destructive of the best inter etta of the city and of the country, and shows, from time to time, that this istlrue. ;We would cultivate and form public sentiment along that line, until there is a majority, who wish to stop it or effectu ally restrain it, then it will b o both Democratic, i ; n d availing to pass a law stop ping it. . Surely the time will come, when all christians will Bee the enormity of its indis criminate manufacture and sale and put a stop to it. If there is ever a prohibi tion law passed in North the erje such by the ma- uor Carolina, it will be by Democratic party. Th would never have been law passed in Maine, but the Republican party there. hat Tho reasons, which make bo there, as to the Kepubli can party, make it so nere, as GEN. JOUEERT KOTAX EX-COHFEDERATE. J. William Jones, D. D., a chaplain during the war be tween the States, in the army of General Lee, and who ha9 written the "lives of General Lee and of President Davis, says he has examined the ros- er of Confederate soldiers and that General Jonbert's name does not appear. It makes no sort of difference whether he was a Confeder ate or not. He is an able general and is fighting in, the cause oi liDerty just ay sure ty as did Lee, Jackpot jfphn son and the noble meuVhom they led. ', V uut ur. Jones says ne 13 glad Joubcrt is not an ex-Con federate, giving as his reason that the Boers are not fight ingin tho cause of liberty, but of oppression; and that the British are fighting for the rights of Englishmen, Americans and others, who went to the Transvaal at the At invitation of IJmger, who did not keep liis word to make them citizens, and whose gov eminent oppressed them. Dr. Jonefc- hopes that no ex-Con federate will enter the Boers' service. We think the good Doctor is mistaken as to1 his facts: - 1 1. The British have been making attempts for j ears to take their country from the Boers, but have been de feated hitherto. livery one is familiar with Dr. Jame eon'dand Cecil Rhodes' at tempt and defeat of recent date. These attempts make a different case than that made by Dr. Jones. ' 2. Axain, according to the termVof citizen Jhlp proposed by President liruger's gov ernment, it is stated that 50, 000 Uitlander would . have become electors this year. 3. But, evn upon Dr. Jones' showing, his case is not fmade out, because, if they found President Kruger's government distasteful, they were net bound to stay there. It is a poor excuse to say that Britain is fighting the Boers because her citizens were not treated by the Trans vaal government as the Brit ish demanded. Our govern ment will not even permit Chinese to come here. We have the right to say so. We would have the same right to eay so to the English as well. We certainly would not give Englishmen the rights of cit izenship until they renounced their allegiance to England. If the English and others, not citizens of the Dutch Re public, did not like the way they were treated, they could leave the country. s - All that, as justification for the Brit ish, is pretence. J" No, the gold and "diamond mines ana .bngiiBU avarice and ambition caustl the war. The Boers are fighting, as our Confederates fo ug h t -for liberty, homes. and country Britain's might does not make right. Her 250,000 men may fail; the God of battles and justice may raise up friends for her weak antagonist. Germany may resent - Brit- ain s aiironts: France is ready; even the United States will hot submit to un lawful seizures. The admin istration may -be pro-British, but the people are on the other side. There is to be au election in this country in about ten months the peo pie will speak then. make speeches. It is inter esting to speculate upon how these speeches are to be made to dovetail, -bach oi these distinguished gentlemen calls himself a Democrat an d thinks he is one, but there is no point at which they touch. Either could reply,' in his ban quet speech, to the other, but they cannot speak of politics on parallel lines and each be true to his convictions. The likelihood is that on this oc casion Col. Watterson will b8 a death's head at , the feast. We wouder, in the first place, why they invited him, and in the second place why he ac cepted. Charlotte Observer. We had supposed that Mr. Watterson differed with Mr. Bryan only ; upon i; fiinan- cial lines. If "there is no point at which they touch," and -"."they cannot speak of politics on parallel line3 and each be true to his convic tions," it follows that one or the other is not a Democrat. Over six millions of voter?, the great majority beinar Democrats said that Bryan is; most of those voters are still of that opinion. . The Observer must have made a mistake. Do not Bryan and Watterson stand together on the Tariff; on the Philippine question; bn Trusts in fact, upon every thing except silver legislation? We do not see Col. Watter son's paper; but we see it sta ted that. he now stands by the organization arid ; accepts, as every god Democrat should do, the decision of the major ity, as shown by the. ofgani- a. ' mi " A , zation. , mis puts nun in complete accord with . Mr. Bryan! v We rejoice that Colonel Watterson is to be present and make a speech, which shows that he is a Democrat and is in line with his fellow Democrats. It- is certainly commendable and augers well for success next November. Would if! not be wellfor all claiminafo be. Democrats ,to fall i ncJU in iopV Ikl Br an and Democracy oAsMeKin ley andjRepublicanism. On which side? Watteiton de cides. All others should do the same. On which side now? . rw. - THE MAMiiflG FH FURNITURE of I IL T71 STORE is now lavishly displayed with Suits from 1 10 to $125. Parlor Suits from $20 t $150. Side Boards from $10 jo $125.
