nidakn and unwise course ot mo
tion will do the negro much more
ham than food in the cod.
Here in the So«th.| in North Car
olina end in . Raleigh. jfs better
class of respectable negroes appre
ciate the otter hopelesaaaaa of at
tempting to make a fight for so
callet' social equality.'' and they
do not subscribe to the views nor
attempt to personally carry out the
bad advice that is sometimes of
fered them by white men, ignorant
of the social conditions hers and the
impoMlbflity of changing then.
They recoxnixe the friendly feel
ing of the white people, the best
white people especially, towards
the nepo race on general princi
ples, and are quite content not to
interrupt die good relations that at
present obtain by asking for or
"demanding'' the impossible.
U. S. Senator Rayner, of Mary
land, in a speech delivered in Bal
timore this week, spoke intelligent
ly and truthfully on the subject of
the negro policy of the present oc
cupant of the White House, when
be said:
"I would not deprive them of
any human privilige that God has
given them. 1 would civilize them,
educate them, and not deny them
a single guarantee accorded them
by the Constitution; but the tint
will never come when you can
combine and amalgate the races;
they will never coalesce, and the
attempt of the president in this di
rection is the dresm of a lunatic
and a visiopary, that will never be
realized. He can never force upon
the people of this country eithei
social or political equality."
That is a clear presentation of the
attitude of the South—and of a fsst
growing majority of the white peo
ple of the North and Wast, also.
The Roosevelt "idea* is a dan
gerous enemy to the best interests
of the negro race in the U. S.

ataourriom BY COUNCIL or STATO
At a meeting of the Council of
State in the Executive Office of
the morning of October to, 1904,
the following reaolutions were un
animoualy adopted:
At t o'clock on Saturday morn
ing, October Bth, in hie home,
Northampton county, North Caro
lina, surrounded by bis sone, Gen.
Matt W. Ranaom, died. It waa
on the 78th anniversary of his birth
—he having been born on October
7th, 18*4, in Warren County,

General Ranaom was distinctly
a North Carolinian, and be served
his state with fidelity and great
ability, as a member of the Legis
lature, Attorney General, Briga
dier General, United States Sena
tor and as Miniater to Mexico, as
well aa private citizen.
We thank; God that hie life waa
spared for so many years, in order
to accompiiah thia great work for
his Stat- and that he might com
plete a great and perfected life, and
that he died in the autumn, when
rich harvests were being garnered,
when the rosea had faded and the
sere and yellow leaf of the year
had appeared, and the golden rod
was in bloom, thua indicating the
end of the perfected year.
And while we bow in humble
submission to the will of Almighty
God in removing him from this
field of labor, we desire to ex
press our deepest sorrow at the
loss of North Carolina's greatest
citizen, atateeman and patriot, and
to offer our sincerest sympathy to
the sorely bereaved wife, who haa
lost that strong arm upon which
she hoped to lean in her declining
years, and to the sons and daugh
ters who are deprived of a father's
wisdom and care in guiding their
footstepe aright. May the pity and
mercy of God protect and keep
them to the end.
Resolved that the flag on the
Capitol building be placed at half
mast, and the different depart
ments of the State government be
closed during the hours for the
funeral service. That theae reao
lutiona be spread upon the Min
ute Book of the Council of State,
and a copy sent to Mrs.Ranaom.
