Ward, of Wtifhiigtou. J. . W. Miller, of Pamlico, Wrru Harry fkfuner, an adniin-istratiou-gold'wtg-Populist, as a fu sion candidate for Congress, and II. E.yHodges, a Pritchard-goldbug-Bopulist, as fusion candidate for the ''State Senate, the good, honest Pop ulists who want free silver legisla tion, 'are being imposed on by their leaders. But it is principle they are after, hence they find happy conso lation in the fact that the Demo crats have placed men in the field who represent the principles they represent, namely: Jno. II. Small for Congress, and J. W. Miller and II. S, Ward for the Senate. ssi H. ii. o. ward, tne jjemocratic 'candidate for the Senate, is the only cue of the campaigners that we haye heard so far, come squarely, flatly and positively out on one of the most vital .questions in North Caro lina politics: the education of each n t t r ci ttt 1 -r - race by their own money. In his speech at Williamston on the 22nd he declared that the graduating of young negroes on the hard earned money of the white man was a crime, and he would oppose it and endeav or to it3ter it through his political life, iu absolute defiance, if it must he, of any and all political parties. He declares he is willing to do charity to their afflicted and needy, but will forever protest against the education of a negro vounjr'i. with the money of a white man who is unable to educate his own children. . The Journal of the House of Representatives, Session 1897, at page 507 (Wednesday Feb. 17, 1S97) Bhow3 that Mr. II. E. Hodges, of Beaufort county, then a member of the House from that county, now the Populist nominee for the Senate in this District, voted against the bills Nos. 311, to reduce and regu late railroad passenger and freight rates,' also against bill No. SoG to prohibit free passes, also against bill No. 857 to elect Railroad Com missioners by the people. 1 Ihe Caucasian, ieb. 25, 97 has o J " very easy to make professions of de motion to the people on a campaign. The test is when measures affecting the people are up and the lobbies are tilled with corporation agents and the people are far away. The bill to reduce the present high pas eeuger and fceight rates, telegraph and telephone charges, failed by one vote. On each man of the majority rests the responsibility of not redu cing these burdens, for a vote to re duce any one of them would have curried the day for the peopls. In the House those voting on the peo- . i rr nil iiiv M y i.ia v ill I . 11. is. pie s siue were : wmie those whose votes . sustained, the present exorbitant rates and corpo ration safaries, v ere Messrs. Hodges itti-i others." . .''emeu v the jury, tale the Vuk News and 'Observer of the 25th gives a cartoon of the political swordsmen of the 1st District, Small aud Skinner. Skinner is represented as wearing n gold belt and using the sword of negro rule, while Small is sporting a, silver belt and is wielding the sword of white-rule. Small represents that class of peo ple, of all parties, who desire good government, free silver and prosper ity, whilo Skinner represents the pie hunters, gold bugs and trusts. Ill its editorial comment of these two candidates that paper says : "The contest in fhe First ' Congressional district is tbe rnosftil'iterestiug one in the State. It is much mora than a contest be tween parties, and is being wiged on a higher plane, It is virtually to test wheth er the people of that district desire to be represented iu Cougress by a man who pro fesses to be a Populist but who was expell ed from the party in Kaleigh, iu , January 1897, and afterwards refused admission to the Populist caucus of members of Congress in Washington. He not only visited"' Kal eigb. during the Legislature .and induced nineteen Populists to vote to elect Pritch ard to the Senate, but, became the agent of a great political corporation to defeat a plank iu the PopAi'list platform, and since the inauguration of McKinley has dispens ed Repubcan patronage in his district. Is anything wanting to suit the Republicans except" that he does not openly advocate tlyelr platform ? fr With this record Colonel Skinner secur ed a re-nomiuatiou by means of the active work of the so called Populists who had been appointed to Federal positions through his influence, but there was a bolt from the convention aud a thunder of repudiation from silver Populists all over the district. Of course the liepnblicau machine endorsed his candidacy, but there is a mighty revolt in the ranks of that party against voting for a man who, while doing-their bidding, in most matters, is using the party only for his personal elevatiou. The reports all agree that he will lose heavily from the Populists because he is virtually a Republican, and from the Republicans because they regard him as astraddler and trickster. He is be tween the upper and nether mill stone. Against Col. Skinner and his zig zag rec ord, the Democrats have wisely chosen as their candidate, Mr. John II. Small, of Beaufort county, who has never held public office, and who has all along been a pro nounced advocate of the free coinage of silver and the kindred reforms which havo come to be embraced iu the term ''Bryan ism " Mr. Small has been making a popu lar campaign, and the Populists by the score have publicly declared it to be their intention to support him. Indeed, with only two candidates iu the field, tbe Popu list who believes in the original principles of his party is forced to oppose Col. Skin Dcr, and as Mr. Small stands for tbe main reforms they advocate, he is the fit can li date for them, as well as for the Democrats Just as Mr. Strowd and Mr. Kitchen voted together in the last House, so will Mr. Small and all true Populists vote together in the next House."
