Come on Now.
News and Observer

THE DURHAM GLOBE continues with
force and power and patriotic ardor to
urge that a fund shall be raised by the
popular subscription to have a North
Carolina exhibit at the Worlds fair.
That was the alternative which was sug-
gested when it was ascertained that the
provision made by the Legislature was
not available, and THE GLOBE has earn
estly pushed the idea. 1t has done more
than advise and recommend; it started
the list with a subscription of $3.50.
This is very handsome Why may
not others follow such a patriotic lead
In fact we observe that the Blackwell
Durham Tobacco company has with the
usual liberality of its president sub
scribed a thousand dollars. If others
would now say the word. the matter
would go forward. Cannot a hundred
patriotic citizens each contribute $3.50?
1t is true that some provision has been
made by the state board of agriculture,
but the cause is one that appeals to the
individual citizen-and any addition to
what the board can appropriate will be
Of material assistance. Mr.. Leo D.
Heartt, of Durham will receive all sub
scriptions. We follow THE GLOBE in
urging our liberal aad patriotic citizens
to take the matter in hand and make the

Will They Do 1t?
Winston Sentinel

The DURHAM DAILY GLOBE has started
a subscription to have North Carolina
represented at the Worlds fair. 1t heads
the list by a donation of $3.50 and asks
all North C~arolinians to swell the amount.
Since the $4,000 appropriation o. by
the last General Assembly proves of no
avail, we feel warranted in saying that
all loyal North Ca~rolinians will encour-
age this effort and appropriate according
to their respective means.

SOME GOOD SENSE.

GOVERNOR Holt, in a letter concern
ing a convict, writes as follow:
| have had the application for the com
mutation Of the death sentence of CARO-
LINE SHIPP to life imprisonment under
consideration for some time and have
again gone through all the papers in the
case and have concluded that I have no
moral right to further interfere in her
case. Her petition is signed by many
good people, among them yourself, and /
freely acknowledge the right of petition
and do sincerely wish for humanity's sake
as well as compliance with the petition
ers' wishes that l could feel justified in
granting their request without violating
my own conscience which carries with it
my oath Of office. Whilst it is an awful
thing TO hang any one, more especially a
woman, yet the law says it must be done
and | am worn to execute that law to
the best of my knowledge and belief. ]
believe it would be a bad precedent to say
that a woman should not be hanged for
the same crimes as a man, and | find no
reason given in this case why .clemency
should be exercised, save that the crimi-
nal is a m The solicitor says that
he cannot recommend communication "She
is guilty of an outrageous murder and
should die" The judge says: There is
nothing to recommend her to mercy save
the fact that she is a woman" The law
makes no discrimination between male
and female. 1t has been on our statute
books from time immemorial that MUIR
derers should be hanged and never have
women been exempted, but several have
to my knowledge been executed. For
the governor to say a woman shall not be
hanged seems to me to be a ]usurpation
of power and would be the exercise of a
physical power but a violation of a moral
right. In this country the cooks who
provide our food and the nurses who have
charge of our children are women often
superstitious and frequently vindictive,
and were it laid down as a principle of
law that a woman should not be hanged
it would soon be publicly known and
serious results might follow, by the clan.

feel keenly the responsibility resting up
on me and regret that | cannot come to a
different conclusion in this case. | have
tried to persuade myself that a woman
should not be hanged but cannot recon-

the only reason given in this case why

The above has the right ring to it. If
THE woman poisoned her husband, and
the evidence was that she did; if she be-
came a murderess-well, then the law
needs a vindication.

Lebanon. told these things in broken
English
Amen Rasi is a tall, handsome Assy-
rian. with a skin as rich as the CHINA
mon silks made at the foot Of the noun
tain on which he was born. He looked
into the curious, bright eyes of girls
and told them that, had they been born
Assyrians in Assyria they could not GO
upon the streets unless their faces were
concealed; that they could neither re-
ceive nor make a call among women
! without their husbands consent, and
that if at any time, even by accident,
they were seen by any man OF in any
way recognized no one would marry
them.
He said that nce two couples-a tall
man and a short woman, and a short
man and a tall woman-stood before a
priest to be wed. The priest placed the
tall man and tall woman and tie short
nan and short woman together, and
none of the four knew whether it was
right or not, neither of them knowing
the other. But the parents hastily OBJ
jected, and placed the tall man by the
short woman and the short man by the
tall woman, as that was the way of the
contracts.
Then Mr.. Rasi showed how these con-
tracts were made. He left the pulpit,
and presently a man wrapped up in rich
Assyrian raiment went up and sat npon
the floor. Mr.. Rasi came back and

by doubling the price secured the girl

Then Amen Rasi looked at the young
men, whose patent feathers cost them
seven dollars, and told them that people
in Assyria paid fifty cents for a suit of

paid three cents for twenty-five pounds

1t il said that the Peoples party
advocates some measures that it's new

approval OF the sub-treasury plan is
not unqualified. It only asks for
that or some other plan that may
provo better and safer in furnishing
the relief the people need. 1t has

discard. This is natural. 1t 10 much

necessarily modify the organization

For Alternate Electors,

There is not a silver miner nor a
business or working man in the coun-
try but should feel grateful to the
Peoples party. We're it not for the
organization and its sympathy with
whatever tends to the benefit of the
masses, free coinage would be lost
i'sne in this canvass and it would re-
qnire decade to restore it to the
vigor it possessed II year ago.
The bonds OF party are many and
strong. As n rule a Democrat or r
publican declines to support party
nominee with great reluctance. The
great bunk Of the partisans OF the
country will support u party candi-
date unless he is totally unworthy or,
inefficient rather thar accept the can
didate of the other side. His party is

velops destinations and affections
that are difficult to surrender.
The gold plutocrats OF Wall street
have gradually frightened their grip
upon he Democratic and Republican
parties until they hold the national
organizations as in wise. At Min
neapolis and Chicago they coerced
the nominations of presidential can
dates that blindly antagonize the
masses OF their parties upon a meas-
ure that should be paramount TO
every other-the free coinage of sill
yer. Were it not for tho Peoples
party, free coinage Democrats and
Republicans could but bow their
necks to the gold bug yoke, or decline

But, happily, there existed in nearly
every other State a political organiza-
ton which, though weak in nun bers,
was close in touch with the people.
