FRIDAT, JULT 27, 190. The gentle shower have fallen and the thirsty earth Is made, glad once tnore,. Next Thursday there will be a hower of white supremacy ballots that will drive away the drouth of negro domination and make the hearts of the white people of North Carolina happy. It li worthy of remark that the rub ber balloon nuisance was the shorten! lived fad Asheville has wrestled with In a long time. The Citizen's comet ed itor, being possessed of a large bundle of nerves, suffered Intensely during the reign otlhe craze, and when he learned that It was all over he was Immediately tempted to .go out and with toe aid of his glass' discover another comet. P. 8.-He did not yield. The "pants" makers of New York have struck for better wages. Which reminds us that the recent hot weather was a sort of pants maker. Chief Clerk Orant of the Internal rev enue office, w ho might be termed Col lector Hatklns' personal representative In the canvas, Is said to have blos omed Into an anti-amendment spell binder, Vast audiences of some 75 or 30 art ald to hang upon hi words a Chestnuts hang upon trees or a tree upon chestnuts, as the case may be. We understand (we have not had the pleasure of hearing his presentation of tb Isiue) that Spellbinder Orant em ploys the Henderson county Itepubll Can system of elocution in his denunci ation of the amendment and Invarlubly perorate with "Glvs me liberty or give me death." Mr, (hunt Is said to tell his hearer that If the amendment Is rati fied the voter will be required "to translate the foreign words in the con stitution." We wonder where he heard this. The LaOratiKe , ntlnel relates a story of a man who fell under a pussen ger train and i caved by some by standers, closing the story with the statement that the man was intoxica ted, Intoxication and moving passenKer train form m combination not to be monkeyed with. It Is refreshingly pleasant to observe what a little' cure has dune for Monu ment tquare. AshevlllH, N. C. July 27,-To A. E. H., Winston, N. C. : Can't you get up ome kind of affidavit that will dike a little of the pressure off'.' Kxposure wasn't In the bargain. J.E.N. University Alumni, The CitUen 1 gratified to see the alumni of the university of that this State are being organised for the pur pose of standing around their aimer mater. The meeting Wednesday of a goodly number of the men living In this vicinity who were at one time Students of the university, or are now trustees thereof, prestige much for the Institution. The president. In. K. I'. Venable. was present and made n talk which shows that hi heart Ik In tin- uoik. and Indi cates that no mistake was made In his lection to that responsible position. The Importance to the university of this movement to organise Its nhimnl cannot lie overestimated, and Is one of the best signs that there Is a genuine revival In education in North Carolina. Above All, White Men. North Carolina women will not have a vote In the determination of the amendment question, but they are the power behind the men behind the vote and their sympathy counts for a great i deal. The very great majority of the Women are hoping for the success of the amendment, and their moral sup port In addition to the votes of the m n Of the state will make the umeiulnieiit a Vote winner of the finest type. The following appeal from a Confederate oldler'a daughter Is printed In the KaU tlgh News and Observer: "The women of the did North Stale have always been conservative Thei e hat been no clamor for woman's right no cry for suffrage. We are content to leave affairs political In the tuuni of pur brave men. 'But, brothers, the question that 1" to be decided Oil the Second Of Auiriiwt 1 one of vital Importance. If means more to us than It means to you! What hall be the result of that day's work'' "We have be-n Insulted, we lmo been placed tn sltuutlon of extreme danger. The opportunity Is given you tO )' Whether or not these thlnus aie to continue. Hewn re of blinding t,i and mistaken loyalty tn party, s "Whatever may be your political Vte' 'hthrr jvu are a IVuhhmi vr , a Republican or a Populist, you nr.- a White man, Above the claims of hu Vnanlty, devotion to country or 1-ymtv ' to party, side by side wlih your f . ar of Almighty God stands high and holy your reverent love of the sacred purity of your women. "Not one of you but scorns the taint Of African blood. Not one or you ut would die for the women' of your home. Your fathers, and many of you who are reading this appeal, fought like mad men when the provocation was far l"! Htarvlng. freezing, dying, our brave men fought. And we honor and thank you. God bless the Hoys In u . .. . "And now we ask not one drop of blood, not one sacrifice of true prlncN pl; wt ask only that your vote be cast on our side. And thl I no campaign letter. It goe straight from the hands of a woman, straight from a home where women are waiting and trusting. And we beg you, brothers, remember us when you cast your vote on the sec ond of August. "Shall we be obliged to submit to In dignities that pale the faces of strong men? From what class of negroes have our Insults come? Which Is most to be dreaded, the weak and unwise negro vaulted up by misplaced power, or the humble black man under a wise con trol? Answer the question, brother, and let your vote represent your answer. "As you honor your mother, as you love your wife, as you cherish your daughter, cast your vote fur white su premacy." A touching appeal to the men of North Carolina from the womanhood of the state. The response to the call next Thursday will gladden the hearts of the mother, wive and daughters of the Old North State. ASH EVI LLEVG AZETTE'S SALE. TO REPUBLICANS WHAT "THE STATE PAPERS BAY OF THE TRANSACTION. From the flhelby Star. Kverybody In North Carolina knew that the Asheville Gazette sold Itself to the Republican politicians for a monetary consideration, but the amount and the names of the purchas er were not authoritatively disclosed until last Wednesday, Mr, W. Roy Homervllle, who was a minority stock holder In the Gazette company, pub lished an affidavit in which he swears that James E. Norton, editor of the Gazette, signed an agreement with Senator Prltchard. Chairman Holton. Collector Harklns. Colonel Lusk and other prominent Republican politician In which he agreed to tight the consti tutional amendment In consideration of 15000, to be paid In Installments of $1000 each and the last Installment was paid last April. Thl 1 the first Instance on record where a North Carolina paper has sold Its opinions and Its conscience for a given sum of money. Mr. Hom ervllle, who was a stockholder In the paper, says In his affidavit that Norton told in several different conversations "that his only motive In opposing the suld constitutional amendment and the election law was the $.1000 paid by the Republican party:" Every man who Is a party to this hrlbr-glving and bribe taking bargain If nothing but a Judas and ought to be held up to the con tempt and ridicule of all honest men. and after the amendment Is adopted they will lm relegated to an oblivion which they have richly merited. Be ware, white man. The negro and his white utiles are mnvlng everything In their power to k$ep the negro on the neck of the white man. From the Statesvllle Landmark. If anybody had any doubt that the Asheville Gazette had been bought and puld for by the Republicans, as fre quently churged and as was set forth by an affidavit published In this paper last week, that doubt was removed from the mind of any candid man who has read the Gazette since the affidavit was published. It treats the whole bus iness In the mildest sort of way, saying that Homervllle, who made the affida vit. Is weak-minded and u tool. The pa per doesn't even grow Indignant about the matter, but tries to laugh it out of court, and offers not a scintilla of evi dence to disprove the charge. And all this In the face of the fact thut a newspaper is charged with Selling Its convictions for so much money In hand paid. Any honorable editor would not, If he were Innocent, rest a moment un der such an accusation as that made against the Gazette. He would prompt ly Invoke the aid of a shotgun or a li bel suit, one or both. Uut the Gazette does neither. It doesn't even ask the men who are churgeU with buying It to deny the charge, and their silence In the premises Is ample confirmatory ev idence. A prominent Republican was told the other day that he and his folks had made u poor Investment when they bought the Gazette. He smiled us he answered that he was not In the dual. but udiled: "That d-n fellow's hide (referring to the editor of the Gazette) Is tough, Isn't it? He stands It pretty well, doesn't he'.'" He does for U fact. From the iHirhum Herald. The chances are that the editor of the Asheville Gnzette will upend his $5000 trying to give the people uf the west a paper that they do not want. WITH THE BRETHREN. SHOCLl) NOT OIUKCT. From the Charleston News and Courier "There Is n tine sympathy, If not a close resemblance.' says the Spring Held Republican, "between our sup pression of 'Insurgents' In the Philip pine Islands, and the suppression of negro voting In North Carolina, where the Democratic campaign Is started with the 'battle cry of white suprema cy,' and the famous Red Shirts' have organized for active woik." Well, the government Itself Is suppressing the brown men In the Philippines. It can't object to the suppression of the black lies in Not ih i 'ai'oltnu.

"The lesson I this: When you see a 'White Supremacy' badge on a sup poted white man Investigate hi gene ology he Is probably a mulatto. A genuine white man doesn't need to be labeled." From the Asheville Gazette June 1J, 1900. . "Dowling wa a leading light In the white union club and at the election (1898), wa a Democratic registrar, which In our opinion were much worse offense than robbing a drunk man," From the Asheville Oazette March M. 1900.
