Through the paper dear girls We bid
you goodbye,

sure to cry.
So long we've been TO the factory to-

Through cold and hot, and stormy

Sometimes we'd leave home We
feared rather late,
But not often did the whistle catch
US outside of the gate.
You've all been diligent, obedieut

Another such set would be hard TO

Now the time has come, and We
must go,
But that's all right, or 1t wouldn't be
Every thing that happens is for the

We've worked long enough, SO now
let US rest.
But this is my reason for leaving
you all,
In these days of Democracy" our
wages must fall
And we couldn't afford to stay for
one cent less,
So we bid you farewell and go home

Every Republican who believes in
the principle of high protection is d
hypocrite if he opposes the Wilson
tariff bill as a whole. The bill is
based on the principle of high pro-
lection. But Republicans can con-
sistentiy oppose certain details of the
bill, which are unjust even from a
protection standpoint. The passage
of the bill will show the Democrats
to be humbugs, but Republicans
should be consistent enough not tc
oppose it.

THERE ARE MEN AND MEN.

On last Monday morning when We
opened our mail, the first letter was
from Alexander Wigs, of Johnston
county. He asked us not to send
The CAUCASIAN 10 him for he was
Democrat and did not want people
to SEE the paper come to the office
addressed to him, &c. 4 friend of
Mr.. Wigs had sent US the money
and asked us to send The CAUCA-
SIAN three months TO him. But it
was a mistake and waste Of money,
for Mr. Wigs mind is not yet ripe
- hear both sides and make up All
opinion from the facts. He is one
Of very few We are glad to say.
i he next letter was also from a
Democrat but it contained SL.00 and
asked us to send him the paper for d
wear. He said he considered it the
duty Of all good citizens TO read both
s DIES aud try to arrive at the truth.
He said he wanted to see reform
especially III election methods in
North Carolina. He SAID he had al
ways voted the Democratic ticket
but should use his influence to see
that every voter cast his vote as he
desired and for the vote to be count
ed a5 cast. This man is a distingu-
ished citizen, and is one of the pur-
est and most conservative men we
have ever known.

The New York Chamber of Com
merce, the same body that advised
the government to issue bonds, has
now advised congress not to pass an
income tax. This is very natural
from their stand point, but will con-
gress follow their advice? That is
what concerns the people.
Democratic polit clans will never
be able to ride into office again On
their hobby horses of "tariff reform"
and "nigger in the wood pile"
Is it possible that the man who made
Wilson tariff speech is the same man
who wrote the Wilson tariff bill?
There is no "parity" between
Chairman Wilson speech and his

4 subscriber writes us that he is
sorry that we have raised the price of
IHE CAUCASIAN on subscriptions of
less than year. He says that he'is
taking the paper and wants to con-
unue to do so, but that he can not
pay more Than for one quarter at a
time. This is poor economy for the
subscriber even if we were to send
the paper three months for 20 cents.
TO send % cents four times for ID
years subscription means to write
Lour letters and to pay postage on
each, which would make the paper
cost at least 21.1O year. Besides it
would cost us DIS much DIS 10 cents III
extra trouble to enter on the name
and receipt for it four times. SO we
would get only about 80 cents clear
FOR the years subscription. This is
loss of 20 cents between us. We
cont wish any one to pay more than
fl.OO year for the paper. We IN
creased the price on subscriptions for
less than year not because we want
any one to pay it, but because We
want every one to subscribe for a
whole year at once. 1t is better and
cheaper for us both.
