GO TO WORK.

The people of the Eastern part OF
the State are aroused to the import
ance of this campaign and are fight
ing manfully for the continuance of a
Democratic administration in North
Carolina. They appreciate the good
government they have had for the
past twenty years. They know
what it means to have negro magis-
trates and negro policemen. They
know what it means to have county
credit destroyed. They know what
1t means to have white men placed
upon trial before juries composed
largely of negroes. They have had
to swallow the bitter dregs from the
cup. They know, from
sad experience, the infamy and
degradation of Republican rule and
are striving like heroes to prevent it's
return.
White men of Forsyth county,
these are some of the evils you will
learn something about if the Repub-
licans secure the control of North
the approaching election.
After these calamities are upon you
it will be too late to mourn over
what might have been. Now is the
time to seek to avert them; now is
the time to work for the perpetual
tion of good government; now is the
time to put forth efforts to save your
property from deprecated value. To
prevent the terrible disasters of Re-
publican rule, it will pay every prop

The Most Important Feature.

Ambassador Bayard.
There is more than mere economics
involved in the settlement of the
tariff question. The right of indi-
viduals to copartnership in the tax
ing power OF the government is, in
my opinion, the most important
feature of the contention. We
Americans had believed that our
system OF government was different
and better than that of others until
we found that it was being used to
benefit individuals at the expense of
the masses. Then we discovered our
mistake. In my opinion the strug-
gle for tariff reform must continue
until this iniquitous feature of legis-
lation has been eradicated."

A Job on the POpuIists.

From the Morganton Herald.
The Republicans have set up nice
little job on the Populists. 1t will
be noted that in every congressional
district where there is the least chance
of success a Republican has been
nominated. In the very strong
Democratic districts the Populists
have been given the nomination. 1t
is the same way in the counties on
legislative ticket. In close counties
a Republican legislative nominee, in
strong Democratic counties Popu-
list nominee. When there is any

THE INCOME TAX.
What Vice-President Stevenson Has
to Say About 1t.

to Say About 1t.
Zone section of the Democratic
tariff bill just enacted provides for
the payment of an income tax. In
dividual incomes of less than four
thousand dollars are wholly exempt
from the tax. Savings banks, and
building and loan associations are
exempt from this tax. This wise
exemption is in the interest of small
investors and depositors. Upon
other corporations and upon indi-
yidual incomes exceeding that
amount, a tax of two per cent is to
be collected. As this feature of the bill
has encountered fierce hostility both
from Republican legislators and
press, it is well to give it considera
tion. Two questions at once arise:
Is this a just enactment2 Was it
necessary? Ite enactment became q
necessity because of the bankrupt
condition in which the passage of
the Mckinley law and the extrava-
gance of the Republican Congress
had plunged the country. It's enact
ment was the logical result of the
vicious Republican legislation that
