AN EDITORS DUTY.

In a private note received few days
ago a prominent Democrat said: "You
are making an excellent paper. l have
but one fault to find. You expose the
Republicans in their rascaity in time to
let them take the back track before it
has been fully consummated. Be quiet
until they have carried out their iniqui-
tous purposes, and then denouncc them,
This is good politics"
1t may be good politics, but to follow
this advice would be to play politics at
the expense of sacrificing public duty.
An editor must have ever before him
the duty of preventing wrong. He must
or, aloud to prevent the disgrace of the
State. If he knows of contemplated
evils and remains silent he has been
wanting in his highest duty. We may be
wrong about it, but that is our concep-
ton of the high duty of a true journal

that the custom still prevails in Clay

Raleigh He will give an account OF
his stewardship at Clay court. We
hope to be present"
Mr.. Plott is a Populist who was en-

true to the principles of Jefferson. His
people of all parties will approve his
course He can give an account of him

1t would be interesting to hear Odum

ROCKED THE TRAIN.
And Hit a Lady-Her Corset Saved her
From Serious Injury
salisbury World

tcdllSDury w OTlu.D
Those who have heretofore anath-
ametized corsets as useless waist tweeZ-
ers will have to change their tactics
now
For there's no knowing how much pain
a corset saved Northern lady last night.
When No. 80 rolled into Salisbury
last night a lady was observed in one
of the cars with number of friends
around her. 1t was learned from one
of the party that just as the train was
passing through High Point rock flew
through an open window by which the
lady was sitting. THE rock was a large
one and struck the lady squarely in the
side. A corset stay was broken by the
blow and a large bruise made on her
side. Officers here were requested to
wire to High Point and request that a
search for the miscreant be instituted
but realizing that it would be useless
they did not do so.
The nuisance is a growing one and
anyone caught in the act should be made
to suffer severely for it.
