Goldsboro weekly argus. [volume] (Goldsboro, N.C.) 1885-1909, 1894-05-17

The month of May is said to be
decidedly the best season for
this sport.
THE North Carolina University
Magazine has issued a handsome
Golden Jubile number of 90
pages in celebration of it's fifty
years Of existence. Tt is a credit
to our University and of historic
value. Among the illustrations are
views of the University ground
and buildings, portraits of the
present faculty and of the facul-
ty fifty years ago, and of the
present editors, who have gotten
out the best college magazine
ever published in America.
THE ARGUS greatly regrets to
chronicle the drowning Saturn
day of Mr.. Walter Sugg, son Of
Mr.. w. H. Sugg, of this city.
He slipped into a deep sluice
hole near the mouth Of Stony
Creek, while seine fishing, and
being unable to swim was
drowned, while his companions,
Messrs. D. A. Johnston and r.
Hightower, were within a few
yards of him, but did not know
of his peril, as he made no out
cry. His body vas quickly re-
covered by them and every effort
made to resuscitate him, but
without avail. He leaves a wife
and one child, three years old.

SOME of the protesting Dem
ocrats in this communicated
we presume it has always been
so in most every other commu-
nifty with the disgruntled
and the wiseacres-make us
really weary with their I'M
democratic and disorganizing
talk: giving ground to populism,
while at the same time profess
ing to albion anything but true
democracy. Populism leads to
socialism and socialism leads to
anarchy, and anarchy means riot,
blood-shed and the destruction
of our free institutions, the usur-
lpation OF individual rights and
the destruction of all intelligent
government. It is the barbarism
of the Goth, the Hun, the Visi-
Igoth and the Lombard that de-
lstroyed civilization in the fourth
century. Populism confined to
populists is within comfortable
bounds; but populism backed up
by Democrats is a menace to de-
mocracy and the nation. He
that is not for us is against US.
