CAT ST. AND EFFECT.

Few towns in the State have made
greater strides IN growth and prosper
ity during the past few years than
Rocky Mount May this not be &C
counted for in the statement made by
the Scotland Neck Commonwealth?
Remarking on the enlargement Of the
Ph0enir, it says:
Rocky Mount is one of the towns
that takes care of its newspapers by
giving them liberal patronage.
There is no greater factor in town
building than the press. And the
way to have good papers is to give
them liberal support
Again in the same paper we find
this, noting recent improvement in
the Greenvllle Reflector:
Gfeenville prospers and stands to
its newspapers. If any one but a news
paper man would say that it prospers
bctan5c it takes care of its newspapers;
but # newspaper man says SO he is
regarded as "talking shop"
All the same Greenville's newspa
pcrs show good patronage and the
town is hourishing, put the two to-
gelhether as you may.

A Real Blood Remedy.
GOOD ADVICE TO THE NEGROES.

y
Rev. R. B. Thompson, colored
minister Of Rosebud, Texas, gives the
following sensible advice 10 the luem-
b-rs of his race. Discussing the sub
ject of lynching and the nameless
crime for which mob violence is mos,
frequently resorted TO, he said:
l tell you the frequence Of violence
to women is alarming. We can't stop
to argue whence came these incarnate
fiends. Nor can we stop to appeal
from Judge Lynch. But we must stamp
out these crimes. Sufficient for us to
know it is that these crimes are com
mlt,ed by negroes to make US hang
our heads in shame and 60 in sack
cloth and ashes.
Let US restore the sense Of security
which white women felt fifty years ago
in the presence of our fathers, under
any circumstances, among the most
forbidding environments. We must
make the humblest white woman in
the widest and most remote section
of country feel as safe in the pres
ence of a negro man as they did a
hundred years ago. Let us make the
white women of this land and all lands
feel that our black arms, backed by
hearts as pure as truth, are ever ready
to defend their honor; that We are
willing to throw our black bodies be-
tween them and their assailants. and
shed our blood to the last drop in
protecting them.

TRI TIL IN THIS.

This from the Nashville american
has sound sense and the right ring
to it:
'Let Us lay the heavy hand of the
law on all schemes and combinations
that are detrimental to the public well
fare, choke the trusts and maui the
combines out of existence, but don't
make bugbear of rich men We all
wish to be rich, and the government
that gives and guarantees equal oppor-
tunltles TO all men to attain that desi-
rable state, that gives full play to tai
lent and energy, IS the best possible
government mans wisdom can de
wise
Too long have we heard the unreal
sonable cry against rich men, by men
who would be rich themselves, il they
had the brains to attain to riches. 1t
IS not simply because men are good
that they do not get rich. We know
men who are in the depths of poverty
who would be multi millionaires, if

obtain wealth:-Concord .Stan1aeR.

The Democratic Press of the State
is almost unanimous in the assertion
that the campaign of next year will be
fought on the line Of good government
and white supremacy. There are very
few of the papers that even hint at
such a thing as fusion with any
other party. What the Democracy
wants is a straight fight with the above
lines clearly drawn, and on this we
believe the party can win. If there is
a white man in North Carolina who is
not disguised with the present State
administration, then he is Influenced BY
something else than desire for good
government.-Greenville Reflector.

EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA.

The Wilmington (Delaware) Star,
of the 18th, says this of Eastern North
Carolina, the Albemarle section par
ticularl>:
a visit to Eastern North Carolina
impresses one with the conviction that
there IS a great future in store for
Elizabeth City. 1t is the natural dis
,rlbutlng point for the rich Albemarle
region, and with the re-opening Of the
Dismal Swamp canal as great inland
ship waterway, a decided impetus
must, Of necessity, result to the traffic
which cen,ers at Elizabeth City. The
town is now rapidly growing, and
Northern capital for the past dozen
years has found profitable employment
at that point. LIS shipping facilities
are second to none in Eastern Caro-
lima and its harbor advantages are Ca
pable Of being enlarged and improved
sufficiently to accommodate a great
merchant fleet. With the Dismal
Swamp ECanal completed there will be
continuous channel thirty feet deep
and sixty feet wide from Elizabeth
City to Norfolk. The design is to ex-
tend this inland ship waterway as far
South as the first inlet below Cape
Lookout, and thus secure safe and
easy inland route SO as to escape the
dangerous Hatteras coast. This would
save millions of dollars to the coast
wise trade and is an improvement that
should command the earnest support
of the United States government as
well as that Of every coast trader from
Maine to the Gulf of Mexico. But
whether this inland waterway is made
deep enough to accommodate large
ships below Elizabeth City or not, that
thriving town is sure to profit by the
opening of the Dismal Swamp canal,
as 1t cannot fail, in that event, to be-
come the main outlet for the varied
products of one of the richest and fair
est sections of the Union.
