SENATOR DANIELS AP0STROPHE.

At the close of his speech on the Teller
resolution, Senator Daniel burst into
this, one might say, vision of Democra-
cy. 1t CLOVIS with the heart of pa
tliot and is strong even to the end with
the truth vigorously conceived and de-
livered unto good time.
Said the speaker:
''Mr. President, / shall not proIong
this debate. I'm every Republic there
must of necessity be a party of the PEG
pie. In this country the Democracy is
that party 1t has made many mistakes
1t has suffered for them and it has cor
rected them. 1t has done many great
and wise and noble deeds which more
than compensate for all its errors and
leave q mighty balance of achievement
and of hopeful promise to its credit.
at has been often defeated, but if
has never failed to come to time fresh
and vigorous ON the renewal of con-
fict; and now, approaching the centen-
NAL of it's birth, it stands before the
country and the world as the greatest
historical organization for the defense
Of popular rights and popular interests
and for the defense of the Constitution
and the laws that time has ever known.
Some of its old leaders have deserted it,;
but better leaders have sprung into
their vacated places.
'Some have abandoned its principles as
we'll as its organization, and in peevish
tones pipe the inane cries of anarchy
that amuse the ears which are unannex-
ed to minds capable of digesting argu-
Dat rstl,
CARNATIONS have more than supplied
their absence; and they are recruits who
have clearer conviction of policies and
principles and are more tenacious of
conviction. Some, not many l hope,
have yielded to vulgar brides. Let those
pass; we cannot outbid their buyers.
'Some have bent to hard necessity;
wife and child, bread and cheese and
kisses" have bowed them to the orders
Of taskmasters, who exacted their man
hoot. as the price of the wages that
keep the wolf from the door For them,
alsa! Inferno yawns for the criminals
who have robbed them of their liberty,
but the recording angel still holds out
the reckoning hand TO the unwilling
sinner and washes away the stain with
tears. Some have yielded not to plain
bargain ana cOrFupClOH iIOT u uuISSS.
but to the atmospheric pressure of pat
ronage and wealth and social blandish-
ment. Some, otherwise strong and
great, have yielded in mere lassitude of
moral energy. even as Merlin, the sage.
to the willy Vivian.
Meanwhile, however, events argue
for our cause more significantly and
more eloquently than language. The
party of jefferson and of Jackson, the
party that defends the Constitution and
the laws, increases its numbers, its
columns close up and press ON, bearing
that standard of the stars to which it
has contributed so many years and to
every star some splendid beam.
meanwhile. Mr.. President 1896,
with is repudiated platform, its broken
pledges. its vanished hopes, recedes
from view into the mists of the past.
meanwhile, too. 1900 comes on apace-
SLOWLY comes a hungry people like
a lion drawing higher
One who slowly mods and winks be
hind slowly dying fire."

TUESDAY, February /, 1So
PROTECTED BY THE CIVIL SERVICE.

Collector Duncan is quoted as saying
that the terms of the deputy collectors
of internal revenue expire when ht
takes the oath of office.
This is not the law unless Mr.. Duncan
has received special dispensation from
the President. Every deputy collector
is under the protection of the civil ser
vice and cannot be deprived of his
office except through charges rejecting
upon his personal or official integrity.
We know the character of the deputy
collectors of this district. They are ex-
ceptionally capable and upright-the best
set of revenue officers the State has
ever had.
When Mr.. Busbee became postmaster
at Raleigh, he naturally desired to fill
all the positions by the appointment of
Democrats. He found, except in a very
few instances, that the men in the OF
fees were protected by civil service regu-
lations, and since then even these have
been put under the protection of the
civil service law During the past four
years, they have not been disturbed.
Mr.. Busbee was true to his oath of
office. The Democratic deputy collec-
tors are as safe in their tenure as the Re-
publican postoffice clerks were unless
the Republicans violate or amend the
regulations. They will not do either
until they repudiate and spit upon the
platform upon which Mckinley was
elected.
4 case is now pending in the Supreme
court to test the matter. A collector
in West Virginia displaced certain store
keepers and guagers. They applied fol
restraining order which was granted
Afterwards a permanent injunction was
issued. 1t is expected that the case
will be heard this week.

ADVICE TO BE Needed

The Progressive Farmer each week
prints extracts from letters of prominent
Alliancemen. This week it prints a
sentiment from Mr.. j. b. Holman, of
Iredell county, who writes:
I'VE must get on a higher plane and
have more brotherly love and deal fair
ly with each other"
aAIr. Holman was for years a leader
in the Alliance, and a leader who stood
for real reform and justice. His voice
was silenced; his advice unheeded; his
example, not followed. No better man
lives in North Carolina. In his quiet
country home, free from the cares of
official life and free from the dreams of
ambition, this pure patriot gives the
readers of the Farmer sound advice.
In recent conversation with Mr.. Hol-
man, he told this writer that it made him
sick at heart TO see the depths to which
North Carolina had fallen, and he
prayed to live to see the day when the
clean and honest government that pre-
vailed before fusion with the Republi-
cans was restored in the State. 1t is a
commentary upon the political orgies
that have cursed us for three years that
Irelell county defeated a man like j. b.
Holman for the Senate four years ago
in order TO elect drunken fellow who
spent much of his time in the Raleigh
guard house!

THINKS HE CAN FOOL 'EM AGAIN.

"The campaign in North Carolina this
fall will command my closest attention, "
said Senator Pritchard on Friday last in
the Washington Post.
Pritchard's vote for the Teller rcsolu-
ton after lodging, shows that he is
going to try another campaign, riding
two horses in opposite directions at the
same time. His announcement that he
will personally conduct the campaign Is
notice to the world that he thinks the
people of North Carolina are fools
enough to believe Il man who congratu-
lates Hanna upon his election really IS III
earnest in wanting a change in the
present ruinous financial policy.
You cannot deceive all the people all
the time.

They have been balloting for two
weeks in Tennessee to select United
States Senator. 1t looks like dead
lock. Mcmillan still leads. Turley
would withdraw and elect Governor
Taylor if he could control his vote, but
Mcmillan, who lacks only about ten
votes, claims that upon Turkeys with
drawal, Mcmillan would get enough
votes to elect him. The chief interest
the outside world has in the contest is
that it shall be ended during the extra
session. The men are all good and
sound on free silver and Il tariff for
revenue only.

1--WE think" says the New York Out
look, ''that 1T was mistake, a serious
mistake, to abandon a system (bimetal-
lism) which worked we'll, and by its
working disproved the arguments urged
against it. The effect of gold mono
metallism has been to lower prices and
increase the value of debts, to strength
en- the money power, and to concentrate
it, and to make a credit system too
great for the foundation on which it
is built"

THEY LIE AS THE RUN.
CE. City Economist.)

Friends, fire into the brigands while
they are running and squealing. We
once asked Charlie Aycock what to do
in our grooming and despair over the
sad condition of our old State since it
fell among thieves. We were for fight.
but Charlie said give 'em the reins and
they'll kill themselves" Charlie was
right and we were wrong 1t is easier
to let a man kill himself than it is to
kill him.. The Pubs are ON the run,
panic stricken. Pour shot into them as
they run. Give them what Gen. Taylor
told Capt. Bragg to give the Mexicans,
in the Mexican war, "hell." They lie
as they run.

The Teller resolution failed in the
House, as was expected. There are not
a few men who dug their political graves
by voting against that resolution. The
live of cleavage can be seen in the vote.
Men who favor the Teller resolution are
forced to fight the Republican, party,
or vote against their professions. Sena-
tor Prjtchard will do we'll to read and
