An offensive patronizing air to-
ward foreign governments, a narrow
centralizipg bias in home politics, a
nauseously self-complacent satisfac-
ton with the exploits of the present
administration and the recon-
mendation of a non partizan Force
Bill, which in the end, should it be-
come a law, would be nothing better
than a sugar coated dose with the
same ingredients, as the one prepared
by the last Republican Congress.
are the most striking features of as
prosy and platitudinous message
as was ever fired at community by
the chief executive Of a great coun-
try. It is a strong Republican doc
ument, and the intense partisanship
Of the author shows through every
line. It is an ingenious bid for an
other four years stay at the white
house, and yet several salient points
of the document are well worthy of
public attention.

Winston-Salem and Roanoke. Va,
are now connected by bands of steel.
Superintendent Maslin returned to
the city Saturday night and this
morning informed us that he witness
ed the laying of the last rail at 3:45
/ O'Clock Saturday afternoon, at a
point two miles North of Rocky
Mount. Va. With the exception OF
about twenty miles the entire road
| road is surfaced up. This work y IL
be sOmpleted the first OF the new
year, aud through trains will lie put
on sometime duri q the month of
January
Winston, the ma nufact uring city of
North Carolina, aud Roanoke, the
manufacturing city of Virginia, are
now near neighbors Bands OF steel
the Old North State with the most
progressive part of the Old Domin-
ion.
No demonstration marked this i'm
portant event. There was no golden
spike driven by the tender hands of
capitalists, and not much of an ar
ray OF railroad officials.
For week General Manager Mas
lin has been camped near Rocky
Mount, and Engineer Newly. who
has charge of the construction. has
been on the line pushing the work
with all possible vi@or.
The two tracklaying parties. the
one from the north and the other
from the south, met Just one mile
and half north of Rocky Mount
Saturday afternoon. The connect
ing link was made, the last rails were
put in place and the last spike driven
by the well directed blows of two
muscular negroes.
The Indications are now that Pres

TO have trains running into Roanoke
on regular schedule January 18th.

WE MEAN IT.

The man who does not see that
the Republican party is a section
al party, party of the north
pledged against the interest OF
the South, is evidently a GEAR
sighted man. We believe the
present financial depression from
which the South is today suffer
ing from il Indirectly rraceab!e
to Nationaf Republican iegis-
lation. Legislation the authors
of which had the present condi-
ton in view when they originat-
ed it. This object was to
hurt the Development of the
South and to stihe out it's indus
tries if possible and turn capital
and migration from our doors
The low price of cotton, the prin-
cipal southern staple hurts, the
millions draiued from the South
for internal taxes hurts, the high
price of every commodity on ac-
count of the Mckinley bill hurts,
and the virtual giving away of
two hundred million dollars in
the North in payment of the pau
per pensions hurts. Every time
the Republican party can stab a
southern industry in the back it
does it, and every man who aids
and abets that party whose
home is in the South is aiding
and abetting the assassins of his
section.

LET HIN ALONE.

Let him alone is the plea of the
pirates friend-the burglars
ally. Let him alone YOU are adj
vertising him into prominence.
Well that is pretty true, but the
class of goods he is offering and
the style of advertisement you
are giving him has great d al
to do with the matter as to
whether your ad. will pay him
or not. The man that lives in
the latter end of this ninteenth
century and who has not yet
learned that the'press can make
itself effectnal in killing out the
influence Of conceited and selfish
demagogues is terribly behind in
common sense, or he is trying to
fool somebody. Which, we are
unable to say.
The press of this country inside
and outside of this state, owes it
to the public to tear the mask
from the face of every disembler
to disrobe every political
mountebank and. show them up
in their true and faithful colors,
and if they will always do SO the
chances for those miserable hyp-
ocrites to deceive the public will
grow remarkably small.
The News and Observer struck
the key not a few months past
vixen t harled a few broadsides,
of chain-shot facts in Folks
camps. The coward said hold
up, it will hurt; Folks friends
said the same thing. The News
and Observer did not hold up and
it did hurt,-and it keeps right
on hurting, but it hurts " here it
ought to hurt, and that is the
real reason some said hold up.
When you are driving home some
solid facts into theputrid carcass
of a demagogue and some man
says hold, you are doing more
harm than good, if you will stop
and analyze the man you will find
he is a sympathetic friend of the
fellow you are Smelling and don't
care cuss for the people.

THE FORCE BILL AND A NON.
PARTISAN COMMISSION.

1t is hard toimagine that Pres
idant Harrison really intends the
suggestion in his message of a
"non-partisan commission" to
consider the question of electoral
| methods, which the force bill OF
the last session was designed to
regulate as Il pratical solution
OF the controversy to which the
introduction of the bill gave rise,
or that he seriously expects that
it will even be favorably consid-
cred by the present Congress.
The Baltimore Sun asks what
does the President mean by d
non-parsisan commission of "pa-
triotic, wise and impartial men?''
He surely does not mean that
the commission should be COM
posed Of men who do not belong
to either of the political parties.
He possibly USES the word S'non-
partisan" in the sense that the
members of the commission
should be drawn equally from
both parties, so that neither
should derive any partisan ad-
vantage from its composition.
Such commission would, how
ever, run 4, very great risk OF do
ing nothing-of being only able
:sto agree to disagree-as it is
scarcely conceivable that Demo-
Gratis and Republicans would
agree either as to thefacts which
are supposed TO constitute the ne
cessity for federal interference and
regulation collections within the
states, or, as to the scope and
limits ofsuch interference If, on
the other hand, in order to avoid
a deadlock between two parties
numerically equal the commits
sion was made up Of an odd
number, the memory OF the fam
GUS electoral commission of tif-
teen, which settled the Hayes
Tilden contest over the presi-
dencv by a vote of s to z, would
be fatal to any revival or rereti-
ton of that dangerous precedent.
The history OF that same COM
mission would probably furnish
also the strongest argument
against the further suggestion in
the message . leaving the selec-
ton OF the members of the pro-
posed commission to the Su-
preme Court. "The cOnstitu-
ton, says the Presld mt, would
permit the selection of the COM
mission to be vested in the Su-
preme Court if that method
would give the best guaranty OF
impartiality." The electoral
commission unfortunately was
composed in part of members OF
the Supreme Court, and judges
whose imparriality would never
have been questioned in a mat
ter of private right or, a contro-
versy between individuals, in
with political question
were found acting, thinking, ar
euing and voting like party men.
The severest blow which the
i'll this country ever re-
ceived in the persons ofthe learn
ed and ablejudges of the Supreme
Court was in consequence of the
participation of some of the best |
and ablest of them in the proceed
ngs of the electoral commission.
