HUNTING ON SUNDAYS ILLEGAL.
The New Criminal Code Prohibits Ii
Under a Penalty.

Under a Penalty.
Editor Morning News There is a rumor
going the rounds among sportsmen, to
the effect that the city recorder is going
to put a stop to hunting and fishing on
the Sabbath For the benefit of the
lovers of the rod and gun, who have no
day in the week except Sunday, on which
to join in this sport. kindly give some in
formation through your columns as to
what Jurisdiction the recorder has in the
matter, and also If there is any state law
prohibiting hunting on Sunday. "Angler,"
"Any person who shall hunt any kind of
game with gun or dog, or both, on the
Sabbath day shall be guilty of misde-
meanor."
The above is an extract from section
1923 of the new criminal code. 1t covers the
matter of shooting on Sunday and is APP
plicable to any breach in the state.
The city recorder has the power to is
sue warrants from the bench, when vio-
lations of the law come directly within
his knowledge. A case was before him a
few days ago, in which two men were up
for some minor lighting or disorderiy
matter. During the investigation 1t de-
veloped that the men had been out hunt
ing on Sunday. The recorder read the
section Of the code relating to the offense,
but the men were not held.

THE HON. c. b. WATSON.

This favorite son of Winston will be
the next Governor of North Carolina.
we hope and believe. He was the choice
of the Democratic State convention
that met in Raleigh Thursday. The
Southern Tobacco Journal reioices in
his nomination, and it is our province
to step into the political arena when
the great tobacco industry of the Old
North State is interested in the sue
cess of candidate for public office,
as it assuredly is in this instance.
Mr.. Watson is an antitrust man
with an antitrust record! Who does
not remember his introduction of a
bill in the lower house of the legisla-
ture three years ago, the main object
of which was to drive the Tobacco
Trust out of the State; his brave and
hard fight to make it a law; its pas
sage by the branch of which he was a
member, and it's failure in a timid
Senate? Who has forgotten the splen-
did, valuable service he rendered two
years later in the taking of deposit
tons relative to the effect of the Trust
on the price of leaf tobacco in this
State, in the suit of the American To-
bacco Company and the Bonsacl Com
pany VS.. the Winston Cigarette Ma
chine Company? He hates a trust as
a good man should hate such an I'M
clean thing.
North Carolina, one of the worst
trust-ridden States in the Union, needs
Just such a chief executive. Our to-
bacco growers, dealers and manufac-
turers have been hurt previously by the
Trust. They have suffered directly
and sorely at the hands of that grind
ing monopolistic corporation. That
Mr.. Watson, in the gubernatorial chair,
would deal fearlessly with the OPP
pressors and despoilers of his people
there can be no doubt. His campaign
and able, bright, eloquent, courage
Gus, magnetic, he is a genuine power
on the s.ump-will enlghten every
citizen as to the true character of the
enemies to their progress and their
prosperity.
The Hon C. B. Watson is honest to
the core; his life has been pure; he is
a brilliant lawyer; he is capable and
fitted in every respect for the office.
May success come to him in November
next Southern Tobacco Journal.

"WILL NEVER GO WITH THE DEM,
OCRATS."

Mai, VIM. A. Guthrie, who is in Raj
eigh to push forward his gubernatorial
candidacy, was in Asheville this week
and said t, tine Citizen:
.'You know, ] was once Repub-
lican, and while / shall probably
never return to my first love, you
may res. assured that / shall never
go with the Democrats"
There is a distinct bid for Repub-
lican support in these words. Bear in
mind that Maj. Guthrie does not state
that he lisa Populist,or that he has left
the Republican party for ''quits." The
only thing he asserts with vigor is Il
shall never go with the Democrats"
The only way TO secure silver is 20
s'go with the Democrats and Maj.
Guthrie will have to ''go'' with them
or prove an active or passive alder OF
Mckinley and Pritchard's gold pro-
gramme.

TWO NEW ENGLAND OPINIONS.

Edward III. Everett, chairman Dem
cratic committee, of Nashua, \. H.,
writes the New York Journal in favor
of silver, closing with these words;
civilian c. Whitney represents Eng
lish gold and poverty. Richard Z.
Bland represents free silver and an
honest dollar not two for one--and
prosperity"
81 have no hesitation in saying THAT
more than half the Democrats in
Massachusetts favor free silver" said
MIR. George Fred Williams, delegate
at-large to the Chicago convention,
THE difficulty has been that they have
had no means of expressing their
views. The gold standard newspapers
have been closed to them, the party
leaders who write it's platforms and
formulate it's policy have been The
same for years. If the Democracy pro-
claim for free silver the discussion dur
ing the campaign will bring to light
the silver Democrats and will result
in great change in party leadership
and policy.
Il do not believe that free silver will
be defeated at Chicago. | do not an
ticipate any success for Mr.. Whitney.
for the delegates Will remember that
the agencies behind him are those
which compelled the notification of
the tariff plank of 1892, and which
defeated adj efforts to redeem the
promise made in that platform for the
repeal of the ten per cent tax on State
bank circulation. The trusts, banks
and corporations robbed the people of
the fruits of the last Democratic vic
tory. They viii not be permitted to
dominae the party councils this year
1t is time for plain speaking in this

Rev. j. A. Cunninggim, ID. d., has

and the help will be made permanent.
Referring to the gift and the donor,

''Dr. Cunninggim has been doing
a great deal of this work, which
has been known only to a very
few. IN a conversation with him
few days ago he incidentally drop
ped out the statement that he had
helped to educate thirty-six young
men and women in the last forty
two years. Who can estimate the

plished in this way?''

NEW WORKERS BECOMING ARGUS.
ED.


The majority of the Catholics in this
country, like the majority of laboring
men of all creeds, are Democrats be-
cause ii is anu has ever been the only
party that was their true friend. But
there are many Catholics, as there
are others, who have been deceived
by the sophistry of protection who
have given q big vote to the Republi-
can candidates. This great element
has an organ in New York which is
called the Freeman's Journal. 1T has
great influence and has exerted it to
the defeat of the Democratic pa-tr in
more campaigns than one. Now 1t is
dissatisfied with Mckinley upon the
same grounds that the plain people
everywhere are dissatisfied. The fol-
lowing extracts show that there is more
silver sentiment in New York than
the great dailies will admit;
"When the gold barons take
council and instruct political par
ties how to save the country, it
reminds one of a convention of
spiders advising as to ways and
means for the welfare of desti-
tute flies, they love them so much"
The financial question is the
critical one in the coming cam
paign. 1t is necessary to smash
the influence of the conspiring
gold oligarchy as Jackson smashed
the United States bank. The man
ayers of that institution thought
themselves powerful enough and
conspired to control the govern
ment. The people at that time
had an advantage over us in that
they had Jackson in the presi-
Dental chair, and thesame hand
that hurled back the English in
vasion at New Orleans overcame
the conspiracy of the money pow
err
let the Democrats adopt an I'M
equivocal silver plank and nomin-
ate man with the energy of Jack
son, and there is every reason to
believe that they will select the
next President Should they imi-
tate the St. Louis convention and
bow to the gold bug cause, they
will sign their own political
death warrant"

TERRITORIAL REPRESENTATION

There has been much confusion a.
bout the number of delegates in the
National convention, owing to the
misunderstanding about the vote of the
territories. Heretofore the Terrific
ries and the District of Columbia have
been entitled to only two votes. In
the last convention, New Mexico was
allowed six votes because the bill max
ing it State had passed the House,
and it was thought the Senate would
do likewise. The other Territories OBJ
jected to giving New Mexico dispro-
portionate vote, and the National com
mittee at its last meeting recommend
ed that each territory,a and the District
of Columbia, except Alaska, be given
six votes, and that Alaska have two
as heretofore. If this recommendation
is adopted, the convention will be com
posed of 926 delegates, of whom AGA
will be a majority and els two thirds.
