.srAND BY YOUR COLOR.

The burden Of the speeches of Chas.
A. Cook and Y. v. W-alser to their negro
hearers in Wilson a few days ago was,
stand by your color" They sought
to prejudice the negroes against their
white neighbors by such appeals as no
white man of character and patriotism
would make or hear. 1t is said to be
true that these appeals to the negro
to stand by his color has had such eff
feet that in most places they are ar
rayed solidly in support even of Rus
sell, the man who has slandered them
more than any other hundred men
in the South. stand by your color"
has been the only argument addressed
to the negro in this campaign when
the thought of the nation has been
engrossed upon a great economic
question. The Republican speakers
in their harangues to the negroes have
not even touched upon it, but have
presumed upon the ignorance and pre-
JUDGE of the negro by appealing to him
to ignore all public questions and vote
as ordered. If the negroes take this
advice literally, they cannot vote for
Russell or Walser, or other base white
men, but will have to vote only for
White and the other negro officers
who are candidates. These dema-
gogues do not intend for their advice
to be taken literally What they really
intend to urge the negroes to do is
to vote for no man who is not either
a negro or traitor to his own race.
Under this last classification they in
clude themselves.
If the negroes, controlled by few
base and selfish white men make
stand by your color" the shibboleth
of the campaign, viii white men di-
vide and turn over the State to Rus
sell, Walser, and such men who
would sink it in order to attain their
selfish ends?

A PRESSING DUTY.


We do not speak without knowledge
when we say there are hundreds, if
not thousands of negroes, imported
from South Carolina, Tennessee and
Virginia, whose names have been placed
on the registration books. Saturday
is challenge day. The pressing duty
that is imposed upon Democrats is to
see that every one of these iInporta-
tions, as well as the ex-convicts, shall
be challenged. This cannot be done
without diligence and effort.
The present election law is the most
infamous ever placed upon our statute
books, having been drawn with the
view to permitting the very frauds it
is now attempted to carry out. But
the honest citizens, by zeal and we'll
directed effort, can compel most Of
these names to be taken from the
books. Let the good citizens of every
precinct study the books and get the
evidence necessary to prove the "enor-
nous registration of unqualified ne
groes." If the white men sit idly by
and permit these imported voters and
5000 ex-conyicts to carry North Caro-
lima, they will be guilty of criminal
negligence. 1t can be prevented by
prompt action and determined effort

PoPULIsT FORT PROTESTS.
He Asks his Brethren to Down Russell
and Vote Whole Electoral Ticket.


Wyatt, n. c., Oct 81. 1896.
To the Peoples party of North Caro-
lima, Gentlemen:
The time is near for the ballot to be
cast, which viii decide which shall
rule the Republicans, Populists or
Democrats, and from all indications,
MIR. Russell will be our next Governor.
If | understand Alright it was under
stood between the Populists and Re-
publicans, when fusion was arranged,
that the Republicans were to take down
their man, Mr.. Russell, at any time
the Populists might call for him to
come down. He has been called, but
failed to answer, and the Republicans
failed to take him down. 1t becomes
the duty Of every honorable white man
in North Carolina to see that said Mr..
Russell is defeated at the polls on the
3rd of November. | am not ashamed
TO claim that / am a Populist, and
for one will never support any man
that is a gold bug. | shall do all in
my power to defeat him (RusselD and
ask all good Populists to cooperate
with me in same.
He has been asked to retire, but has
thus far failed and the Republicans
have failed to take him down. There
fore the contract between the Popu-
lists and Republicans is broken, and
the Populists are not under any OBJ
legation to support any part of the Re-
publican ticket neither State nor coun-
IT,
/ notice too, that some gold bugs
claiming to be good Democrats and for
silver, recommend a scratch of the
Populist electors. Now gentlemen:
What will that amount to? 1t will
be equal to an election of Mr.. McKin-
ley's electors in this State. / trust
that there is no man who is for the
election of Mr.. Bryan will do so.No man
can recommend such and be O Bryan
man That will be only for the election
of Mckinley and his gang. Mr.. Bryan
is the man of the people, and the peo-
pie want him elected, therefore. we
must come to the front and do our
duty The Republicans are now bet
ter organized than ever before. They
see victory ahead and if there remains
three tickets in the field there can
be no chance to elect our man as Gov
ernor of our State. Therefore, it be-
comes the duty of the Populist and
Democrats to come together and work
to defeat the said Mr.. Russell. Gentle
men of the Populists and Democrats
decide the matter, and let's put a man
in that will do to lead the white people
of our grand old State of North Caro-
lima.
Yours for good government,
J. G. FORT, Populist.

a PoPUmsT NOTE OF WARNING.

We publish to-day letter written
by Mr.. j. C. Fort, of Wyatt, Populist,
calling upon the patriotic men of the
Populist and Democratic parties to
bestir themselves to compass the defeat
of Daniel T. Russell Mr.. Fort secs the
baneful effects that would follow in
the wake of Russell's election, and
sounds a note of warning. Unfortu-
nate1y, the Republicans gave the chair
man Of the Populist Executive COM
mittee endorsement for an office, and
promised enough other Offices to make
that committee deaf to the entreaties
Of patriotic men like Mr.. Fort. 1t re-
mains for the people to repndiate all
those who for selfish considerations are
aiding to elect Russell.
The voters in the Populist party are
demanding that Russell come down
in accordance with tho agreement but

with trade between the Populist and
Republican chairmen, by which the
Populist chairman is to get an office,
there is no probability that any official
demand will be made for the Republic
cans to carry out their contract Indeed,
Mr.. Ayers endorsement by the Repub-
licans shows that here is to be no such
demand, and that Aver, Thompson,
Worth, Strowd, Shuford, Martin and
Skinner having made trade to elect
themselves, are resolved to carry out
the trade regardless of the fate of
their party associates. This scheme
involves the abandonment of Guthrie
and Docl1ery, the surrender Of the
Legislature to Pritchard, and the cleo
ton of four gold-bugs to Congress.
VIII the Populist voters submit to this
trade? If they do, they will deliber-
ately lend their influence to the gold
bugs and the Russellism in order to
elect few of their own men to Office.
In the presence of the menacing dam
ger of Russellism, the citizen who
falters is lacking in that love of State
that ought to characterize every North
Clarolinian.

Mr. Joseph A. Harris, of Orange, who
was taking in the Fair yesterday, says
that Orange will give good account
of itself in November.
The Republicans of Moore county
offered to endorse w. NJ. Kivett, Popu-
list, for the Legislature, if he would
agree to vote for Pritchard for the
Senate He had too much principle to
vote for goldbug, and they dropped
him.
Mr.. w p. Wood, of Randolph, who
presided over the convention that NOM
mated Pous for Congress, was at the
Fair yesterday. He says the fight is
hot and close in Randolph, but that the
Democrats have the best chance of
carrying it.
Mr. w. S. Hyams, secretary of the Re-
publican Executive committee, desires
to state that Senator Pritchard chang
ed his appointment at Wilkesboro be-
cause he had been advertised TO speak
elsewhere, and not because he wanted
to dodge Col. Dockery; Senator Pritch-
ard, who has been i'll, is better.

question from the laborer's standpoint,
was an able argument in favor of finan-
cial reform The papers i'm other

quite as complimentary. Chairman
Manly has many letters requesting that
Mr.. Lacy be sent to many points.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

Hanna by saying that as God sent
Mamma to the Hebrews, so He had sent
Hanna to Mr.. Mckinley.
Mrs. Elliott F. Shepard's gift to her
daughter on the occasion of her mar
riage to Ernesto G. Fabri is said to have
been one million dollars.
A Canton special correspondent of
the World telegraphs that paper that
Mckinley would not say word to me
yesterday on the subject of trusts. He
absolutely refused to break his silence
OF course. The trusts are putting up
the Doodle to elect him under an I'M
derstanding that he will not interfere
with their nefarious practises.
A special from st. Louis says: "Mr.
O. d. Jones, the Populist candidate for
Governor of Missouri, this evening
handed his resignation as a candidate
to the Populist State committee. He
said he preferred to not in any way
impede the success of Bryan and Wat
son, and thought that his withdrawal
as a candidate for Governor would tend
to assist the national ticket. His
resignation was accepted, and Lon
Stevens, the Democratic candidate, en-
dorsed."

II IS charged that the failure to nomi-
nate presidential electors al the demo
cratic state convention was not an acct
dental omission in the call but done de-
slgnedly. This can hardly be true be
cause no good would come of it. If the
silverItes secure possession OF the Chi
cago convention they certainly are en-
titled to al legal appliances for conduct
ing an election, and the failure of a con
vention to do what was its duty could
not and should not operate against the
successful wing of the party no matter
how wild its financial vagarles. Error
can not be eradicated by trlckery. 1t
must be fought openly. The thing left
for democrats who cannot, as they per-
ceeve their duty, vote for free silver, Is
not to vote for Mckinley or assist in his
proper for them to refuse to vote at all.
A national democratic ticket should be
nominated on platform which every
sound money democrat can endorse and
we can thus preserve our organization
ard our self-respect, while doing what we
think the best interests of the country
demand. The machinery of the party is
the property of the Chicago convention
1t has fairly come into its possession.
