As we hive, already explaned in a previous article on this subject, the tax- paying, property-holding classes in the State are repeating the experiences of thirty years ago, and, as one mar easily conclude In the light of past events, tiiey willieraerge from them by the same methods and with the same results. - It is all very well for the people of the North and East, dwelling under the operation of a secure conservatism, their itfwal infamat. wIbaIv administered and their property and their clvilizatlonbe- yond the reach of peril-it is all very well for these people to hold np their hands In pieus horror at the mere mention of violence and to deplore the so-cailed ickedness now rampant at the South. But we should like to call their attention to the predicament of one county (Craven) In North Carolina, and to ask them how they would relish a similar condition of affairs at home. Our letter from there published in Saturday's edition of The Po.t says; y;.,-.,' ; t . ''r::: "There is no question that this Is a negro-ridden country. . The Hit of negro office-holders Includes the register of deeds, two deputy register of deeds, four deputy sheriffs, coroner, four constables, twenty-seven magistrates, county com missi'oner. one member of the board of education, tuirteen school committee men, three road overseers, city attorney, three city aldermen, and four policemen. The future representative of the county in the Legislature is a negro, who has been convictod of forgery, while a ma jority of the other officers on the ticket are also negroes." Here we find In a county whose, total population is 13,000, sixiy-six negro of flcials, one of them a convicted felon.and the others indelibly stained by associat ing with and recognizing him as a suita ble person to hold office. The whites own ninety-five hundredths of the prop erty, pay the same proportion of the taxes, and represent practically all tue culture, civilization and intelligence. But it appears that in nearly evory respect in which their most important interests ara affected by local government, they are at the mercy of negro officials who have nothing to lose by anarchy and who stand for nothing in the social scheme. Of course, the people of no county in Massachusetts or Pennsyl vania would ever have permitted the calamity to attain such a alnister devel opment. At the first menace of negro domination in politics, they would have ushered in the regime of self protection and killed the evil at its root. They know this to be true, whatever they may say to the contrary nnder their present sense of safety. The white people throughout the country know It Is true, and we know they know It The ques tlon Is not debatable. Just how the situation baa been brought about, we shall not stop to con aider. That the whites are largely blame, we do not dream of denying. But the facts exist, and we can easily believe that they create a prospect which no in telllgent and responsible citizen of North Carolina be be Republican or Democrat can bring himself to tolerate. Party enthusiasm, greed of office, the tricks of frowsy demagogues, the recklessness of fools and knaves these motives always push their victims to greater or to less extremes of action. But there Is a limit to even the most vicious Unden cttsofmsn, and that 'limit appears to have been reached la North Carolida. has become necessary, after twenty years of uninterrupted peace and Christian civilization, to leach the Southern ne- C roes that they cannot rule over the property and the destlnlea of the super- tor rice, and that lesson will be taugli on Tuesday next, we solemnly believe It Is our conviction, moreover, that lb teachers will have the sympathy and ap provalwhether avowed or onavowed of the whites throughout the land.

Sensational Story From Wil mington. (Governor Rus sell Will Not Tote. Journal BuiitiU. . Raliiqh, N. C. November, 7 J 1 The Populist State Chairman has Is sued over 885,000 State tickets. It Is esti mated that there are of the different State tickets 10,000 sent out for every one that is voted. Of course everything is waiting for to morrow when so much depends upon how the white men vote. There is the danger where many will think their vote will not be needed, and thus "White Supremacy" loses. - . A Republican here said yesterday that if his party controlled the legislature that there would be negro policemen here in this city. That statement of It self ought to arouse every white man in the city. :.:."..-,-.; A few days ago Republican Chairman Holton said they would have 88 or 40 out of the SO senators. Yesterday a close friend of Uolton'a was overheard to say that Ilolton "thought" they would have 28 senator. His "thoughts" will shrink during today and tomorrow. ' A large percent of the business houses will close tomorrow. The polls will be closely watched and woe to any man who is illegally registered and attempts to voto. . : .. In Wilmington It Is said that the cooks have threatened to poison the families of Democrats, and news has reached here that It is determined among the "white" men there, that at the first note of alarm, they will go to their kitchens, and shoot the cook. Of course this is an exagger ated leport and yet soite may feel justi tied in doing so. Governor Russell will not put his neck Into danger so he will not go to Wil mington to vote, lie too fully realizes that his life would be the flist sacrificed if trouble came and he was within reach of the infuriated people of Wilmington. Ex-Goyernor Jarvis said this morning that the Democrats would carry the House by a big majority, and the Senate by a safe majority, and that the judicial ticket would go Democratic by 5,000. Populist State Chairman Thompson lias kept on the stump to the last. H spoke at Durham today. Ex-Chief Justice Shepherd, democrat says he can only speak for the 1st Dis trict and that things look very well in deed for Democracy. . sr A1N ONLY rOOLINO. Bear the Signature of New Inn, Nov.niber 4. Talk ss he Data Rat Itoalra Vtf Break OST, Washikqto, November 7v To break off the Peace negotiations is the very thing that Spain does not desire to do That was made fully apparent In the answer pf the Spanish Commissioners, declining to consent to onr demand for the whole of the Philippines. Spat wishes to get as much money as It posit bly can from ns, for the Philippines, and If the negotiations are broken off, it would not get a cent, while we would got the Philippines just as surely as we would If the treaty was regularly con eluded. There are good reasons for the belief that Spain would object most decidedly It our .Commissioners should withdraw their demand for the Philip pines, which they are not" likely to do, end substitute a proposition that the Islands should be returned to Spanish control. One of them Is that a retura to Spanish control would be a physical Impossibility, owing to the strong Instr gent army of Agulnaldo, which would be in absolute control of the entire group of islands within a week aftet the with drawal of the American forces. Bpal knows thst the Islsnds ara lost to her, and, even if she did not expect to get money Indemnity from us, would doubt less prefer seeing them controlled by the United States to seeing them controlled by the Insurgents. So far as can judged by appearances, the Preildeol and the members of his Cablnef are pe fectly satisfied with the situation Pari. In fact, member of the Cabinet ii have said as much, and adiltd their x- pectatlon that the treat would soon J concluded opnn our term. I to i a FIBS AT CAPITOL. fort ar Jrat Marble etalldlasr as - Waaalaataa la Kalaa. Washington, November 6. Like the eruption of a volcano came an explosion In the Capitol building this evening at 18 o'clock. The Supreme Court room and the rooms Immediately adjoining on the main "floor of the Capitol were totally wrecked. The money damage is exten sive, but far more than that will be the loss to the Congressional Law Library, This Library was located directly be neath the Supreme Court Room. It con. talned 20,000 volumes, and Its value was estimated at over 1,000,000. A great many of the volumes were destroyed by re or the floods of water poured into the Capitol. . .;; .i-v ; . .f. ;'; ' A heavy explosion, which was heard several blocks from the Capitol, took place, and Immediately afterwards flumes burst from the windows of the Congrcs siohal Law Library In the basement, and few minutes later from the Supreme Court room. - . . ... "... Within m few minutes after the arrival of the lire department the flames were under control,' although as a precaution ary measure streams were poured into the marshal's office, the library and tbc subterranean basement" for two hours. The Bremen were unable, however, for a considerable " time to extinguish the flame of gas which shot out of the four inch main in the meter room. From this main the fire swept through an orifice In the basement floor caused by the explos ion and attacked the consultation room of the Supreme Court justices on the main floor. Some damage waa done to the furniture and fittings of this room, but it was Inconsiderable as compared with that done elsewhere. . It was' evident that the fire could not be extinguished until the gas from. the main was cut off. That this might be accomplished the firemen turned two streams upon the main, choking the flow of gas and at the same time cooling the pipe. Electrician Cliem, braving the In tense heat, entered the meter room and cut off the gas at the. floor valve of the main. . '.- ;' :v ' " : Maalla Iaarc.ata Manila, Nov. 4.
