THE Republicans are clarifying over
the fact that the money in the treasury
vaults has been counted and it is all
there. Yes, but where is the money OF
the United States that is "not there?"
How about that that went out-not that
which staid in? Tell us about the star
route business, the naval appropriation,
the pension frauds, the whisky frauds,
and all the other devices of corruption
and dishonesty. Call up the agents
through whom these rascaliy dips were
made into the national Golfers, and, as
the symbolic Goddess of Liberty collars
and shakes them, count the gold that
drops from their shivering forms! 1t
would require larger force of mathe-
maticians and longer time to count
what has been stolen out than what has
been left in. The great cause for CON
graduation by the people is that any.
thing at all was left to count.

THE special meeting of cattlemen
adjourned after two days. labor. Their
work cannot but be gratifying to the
whole state. The differences existing
regarding the trail we're amicably ad-
justed, and it is to be hoped all inter
ested will abide by the action of the
meeting. While there were many and
widely differing views, there was gem
eral impression that the stock interest,
and in fact the interest OF the whole
state, demanded that something should
be done to avoid disturbances that were
| calculated to arise. The committee,
after long sitting, harmonized as near
as it was possible the existing
differences, and no one should seek to
thwart or override the compact entered
into. Some may suffer by it, but it is a
state question, and very necessary
that it should be settled and trouble
avoided, and there can be no doubt but
that this convention was made up OF
some of the wisest and best men in the
state, and their action will not only
meet with favorable consideration, but
the decision reached by them will un-
doubleday be held as binding, and nc
good citizen will attempt to violate it.

An Insult, Deep and Singing.

Startling as the proposition may
seem. we are informed upon good au.
thority that all men, without regard
to color or previous condition, are fed
with the same spoon at the Atlantic
Coast Line Hotel in Weldon: or to
express the idea plai My, white folks
and negroes at this hotel are treated
alike and at the same tables. in the
sar"e dining room, at one and the
same time.
We say unhesitatingly, that this is
an insult to Halifax county especial>
ly, and to the South generally. We
don't know who has the management
Of this hotel, but the state Of things
which is said to exist is disgrace to
those who have it in charge, and they
deserve and should receive the SCI
verest condemnation of the white
people. 1t is without reason; with.
out excuse it has no parallel. AL.
lowed to exist uncondemned, it is q
silent announcement, more potent
than the most positive and emphatic
declarat on to that effect, hat the
people of Halifax county and the
South are ready for social equality
