GOOD ROADS CONFERENCE.

1t is q striking fact that at the
National Good Roads Conference
held in New Jersey recently, there
were delegates present from forty
different states showing how wide
spread is the realization on the part
of the American people that better
public roads are a necessity.
We are glad that some Of these
conferences are to be held nearer
home. The State University invites
all persons interested in public road
Improvement and especially the
county commissioners, magistrates
and road overseers in the counties
contiguous to Orange to meet at
Chapel Hill during Tuesday and
Wednesday Of next week for the pur-
pose of discussing all questions re.
lating to the Improvement Of public
roads in middle North Carolina.
There will be several addresses by
persons connected with modern road
building, followed by general dis
cussions of these subjects among the
delegates during both Tuesday morn
ing and Wednesday morning, and
during both afternoons there will be
on ion Of r001 nlOohJrnrv ~
operation and Of the methods of lay
ing out new roads and changing the
location Of old roads so as to avoid
the steep grades and other bad
places.
Among the questions to be dis
cusscd will be the following:
l. How a we improve our dirt
roads to the best advantage at the
least cost?
= =. TO what extent can we macad-
amizc our roads in middle North
Carolina?
5. The use of road machinery as
compared with the old method in
improving dirt road.
4. Shall we use convict labor hired
labor, or volunteer labor, as hereto
fore?
) How to drain wet places on our
Cay roads.
6. How to raise money for road
Improvement.
!. To what extent does it pay to
build costly roads and other practi-
cal questions of similar character.
The meeting will be held IN one of
the University lecture rooms, and
will begin at 10 o'clock on Tuesday
morning.
Durham county should respond
literally to this invitation. Our
roads have already been improved
in places, but they can be made
vastly better. We have no great
amount Of money with which to carry
on this important work. What Dur
ham county wants to know and Just
what every county in middle North
Carolina wants to know is how We
can spend to the best possible adj

CHINA SUES FOR PEACE.

China is suing for peace. When duly
considered this is a remarkable thing.
a nation of four hundred millions. a
nation of which it has been said that
if she ever woke up and came TO a
sense of her strength might become a
threat to Europe and a menace to her
civilization. All such fears, if ever ser
iously entertained by anyone. have
been forever dissipated Her vast
hordes have been of no use to her and
she has gone down before her sea-girt
neighbor whose population is but a
tenth of her own.
And how has it all been brought
about? BY the adoption of modern
ideas and methods in war and
other matters by her opponent,
Japan's anxiety to change heq,
old civilization has been almost
feverish. So fast was she making her
strides forward that it was feared
there would be a great reaction. And
there has been some danger Of If. But
her war with China, conducted on
modern theories and with modern ships
and weapons of war, and its wonder
full success, will be a justification 20
all her people of the wisdom of the
policy pursued and her departure from
her ancient ways. There will be no
now. The war has given ia
pan a position among the nations, but
it will produce no great revolution
within her.
Not so with China. She will no
doubt have to surrender all claims to
any rights of suzerainety over Corea
and pay large war indemnity. These
will be the immediate, palpable effects
of the war But there are others not
less important. Her prestige is gone,
and this she viii feel very keenly. She
cannot but realize that she has not

SILVER AND THE CONGRESS.

The resolution as to silver, adopted
by the Trans-Mississippi Congress, are
important as an expression of the sen.
timent of the West on that important
subject. They voice the wishes of the
minority in that regard. At the same
time they show that the people even or
this side of the Mississippi are not Z
unit in demanding the free coinage OF
silver at the ratio of 16 to l with gold
However, the majority is so great al
TO establish the fact that at least two.
thirds of them as represented at the
| Congress are emphatically in favor OF
the complete reha bilitatio of the white
money metal
OF course it will have no great prac.
teal bearing on the matter, it will have
the effect of keeping up the agitation
which is necessary to bring this i'm.
portant subject TO wider public atten-
ton. But the Congress at St Louis
has no power to direct the national
Congress or exercise any force which
will push the question to an issue
Nevertheless, it is gratifying to find 50
many prominent men representing the
states and territories of the West on
the side of the only efficient solution of
the silver problem.
II the silver men of the East would
get together and make as pointed and
explicit a declaration as that which
has been formulated for the West. il
would speak in louder tones to those of
our fellow countrymen who are hostile
to silver than the voice that comes
from the congress at st. Louis. 1t is
the East that needs converting. There
viii always be a strong element there
in support of the gold theory. but the
masses of the people of the eastern
states are not so personally interested
in goldism as they, and when the
masses of the voters on the other side
of the Mississippi become as nearly
united on silver as are the people on
this side, it will be but a very short
time until the wrong done in 1873 will
be permanently repaired.

THE ARMENIAN MASSACRE.

As the details Of the massacre in
Armenia come to light the horror of it
increases An Armenian gentleman
who is in this city, on being asked If
he did not think the accounts were ex-
aggerated, replied. No, but, on the
contrary, he believed they fell short
of the reality. The Armenian people
appear to be under the complete DOM
ination of their oppressors and in a
most abject condition of bondage.
1t is to be hoped that the great Pow
ers of Europe win not allow this ter
rible tale of cruelty and oppression to
pass by uninvestigated. Whatever
may be said in honor OF the Sultan, it
seems very sure that the Ottoman
Porte permits, if it does not sanction,
most horrible outrages upon Chris
tians in its dependencies. They are
not new Every now and again the
civilized world is startled with these
stories of massacre and butchery This
affair ought to be probed TO the boz
TOM
There need not be any attempt to
work out of this event an excuse for
the disruption of Turkey and its par
tftion among the nations, each of
which desires to gain a slice OF its
domain. 1t can be made thorough
and. concerted inquiry until the entire
facts are brought to view and the re-
sponsibility for the unspeakable out
rage is placed where It belongs.
To permit this shocking and bloody
onslaught to pass by without an effort
by strong nations to protect the weak
would be a disgrace to the civilized
world. England, France, Germany and
Russia should all be interested in the
investigation. If nothing better can be
done, Armenia should be placed upon
its feet free from the dominion of the
Turk, and 50 fortified by the protec-
ton of the Powers that never more
shall it be in danger of a repetition of
these hideous atrocities.

THE ELECTIONS AND SILVER.

suits of the recent elections on the sill
yer question, says: "All along the line
where the Democracy has undertaken
to raise the silveAhag it has suffered
1t then goes on to say that the Dem
ocracy is not true to silver, while, on
the other hand. the Republican party
has been coming more and more to the
silver standard"
Whenever the Republican party has
come to the silver standard lit has been
for the very purpose of making an
assault upon it, and for no other pur-
pose. For the friends of silver to go to
the Republican party for aid for the
white metal would be like the goose
running to the fox for protection.
If silver has suffered whenever the

y Populist paper announces that
1T is nonsense to talk about a revival
of trade" Why? AS it is a fact adj
mitted by all classes and parties that
trade is reviving, why not talk about it:
Was it not much greater nonsense tc
reiterate continually the groanings and
mutterings of pessimists over the panic
and its consequences, than it is now to
speak encouraging words about palpa-
bic facts?
That a vast Improvement in trade
and industry is being experienced can
not be truthfully denied Even the
scamps who, for paltry partisan pur-
poses during the late campaign in Utah
persisted in saying that the reports OF
/ trade revival were false, have now to
admit that they were true or else stand
counter to everywhere acknowledged
facts. To talk about this improvement,
then, is the best of good sense for it
is common sense.
But Populism is nothing if not a
great grumble. 1t lives and grows on
growls. Faultfinding is its main de-
pendence. That always takes with the
unthinking multitude. Pitch into some
body and YOU can be sure to get a
hearing. Blame the party in power
and you can gain applause Complain
of evils, whether they are existing or
prospective, and there will always be
a sympathizing audience.
The money power of the country has
without doubt obtained terrible hold
upon all our institutions and gained
control of governmental affairs in
municipalities, states and the nation.
Popu,ism. by proclaiming against it.,
catches the ears of the masses and
many follow the sound, without SEN
sing the fact that no adequate remedy
is offered for the troubles that are de-
nounced. And the idea that any i'm
provement is present or probable does
not comport with the bewailings as to
the woes of the times, and therefore
il is nonsense to talk about it, in the
view of the Popuiistic Jeremiahs
The panic of 1893 the result of Re-
publican legislation and maladminis-
tration, has been followed under Demo-
cratic control of public affairs by a
gradual revival of trade and industry.
1t is useless to deny it. The facts are
too patent. If the people of the United
States had possessed sense enough to
have continued in power the Demo-
cratic party for dozen years, the
effects of its policy would have been
fully experienced, and the country
would have entered upon a new career
of prosperity With would reach down
to the masses of the working people
and therefore would be what the nation
needs.
AS it's, times are importing and will
continue to improve, until the Republic
can party, by tinkering with the tariff
now established and still further block
ing the way to a permanent settlement
of the silver question, once more ar
rests the flow of the tide for the benefit
of 1.-THE common people" Meanwhile
the voters of the country will begin to
open their eyes to the truth, and when
they see clearly will not be apt to per-
petuate in power party that legislates
only for "the rich and the we'll BORN
AS to Populism, that is a mushroom
growth and will meet the mushrooms
