Inundated, ortis it now being done?
You havesintimated that it has,
and the resolutions Of which you
were party conveys as much.
Our opponents are now, in a posi-
ton to throw at us; the free voice
Of the people is stifed by the re-
publican party, because it is of re-
cord, and that a protest has been
made against such being done, if
such was not the case why the pro-
test by those within the party.
This we claim is one reason why
the action taken will work untold
harm in the party. There are al
so other reasons. One of which
is, there has been created an i'll
feeling among some of the men
that comprise some Of the brains
and intelligence Of the party in
the state, that years of time will
not erase. This discord benefits
no one except our opponents and
and it has been caused by a lot of
small fry who have succeeded in
working up the sentiment among
few, that they are being impos-
ed upon. As to the effect Oh Van
SAINT, the speech that was made in
support Of the resolutions by a
man Of no political character, was
vile attack upon any man that
had self esteem enough to seek an
Office, but it demonstrates who the
resolutions were aimed at, and
when a man is thus villihed it al
ways has tendency to turn the
tide in his favor. The men who
opposed the resolutions SO siren
ously, never advocated the nomina-
tion Of VanSant and are not doing
50 TODAY, produced arguments and
made earnest pleas, that cannot be
contradicted, that the resolutions
be not passed, all in vain. Now it
is being charged that they were
VanSanU men. When such action
prevails it always reacts in favor
of the party that is trampled upon,
and it will undoubtedly in this
case. VanSant stands out today
foremo It Of all the candidates in
the field, because he has the sup
port Of q man that does not curry
favor Of the Rotary following,
that is no detriment to him, he is

THE LEGlSLATURE-A PRIMARY SYSTEM

Tho democrats have come into power
for another quarter of century II they
carry out every promise they have mace
the people. are wise and conservative,
and use the power given them for the
upbuilding of the State.
1t is fortunate that the General AS
sembly is composed of the first men OF
the State. many of them having had
legislative experience. They are men
who will come to Raleigh with the con-
fidence of all the good people of all par
ties, and they are men who VIII legls-
late for the lasting good of the Com
monwealth.
The State was redeemed this year be-
cause the white men accepted the press
ing invitation of the party leaders to
ioin in restoring White Supremacy. The
Democratic primaries are now open TO
all white men. Let the Legislature
make n white mans primary and take
in all the white Populists and white Re
publicans, have each county adopt the
primary system, and have State prl-
mary for Governor, Senator, and other
State Officers, and also for Congressman
and all other positions for which there is
a close contest. In Georgia, South
Carolina and other Southern States
such primaries, regulated by law, have
drawn into the Democratic party virtual
ly all the white men in those States.
they see that a nomination by white
men is equivalent to an election and il
order to have a voice in the selection OF
public officers they see that they must
90 into the Democratic primaries. a
primary in Georgia excites more interest
than an election. 1t will be so in North
Carolina when the conditions here are
like those that prevail in Georgia.
1t will be in the power of the Legisla.
ture to enact legislation that will shape
affairs so in North Carolina that the
menace of bad government cannot hams
like a pail over the industrial progress
and peace of the State The men who
have been commissioned to legislate fol-
us all will be expected to do more thar
pass the ordinary local measures, draw
their salaries and go home. The people
who voted for them do not wish to b'
forced every two years to go through
the strain and sacrifice that the election
of 1898 involved. They want all thu
Republicans and Populists who voted tn
Democratic ticket this year to perman
emily vote it, and they want all othe
good citizens to see that it is to thei
interest not only to vote for the Demo
cratic nominees, but to take part L
primaries regulated by law in which tn
nominees are selected. The preparatio
and passage of suitable act, providin
for State, district and county primarie
will be one of the most important dutie
that will deyolve upon the Legislature
and legislators ought now TO be studyin
the acts of other States and the cond
tions in North Carolina so as to devils
u system that will help to permanent
unite the white voters and give to ever
voter an equal voice in the nomination
of party candidates.

Springfield Republican.
There are compensations for the
Democrats in not having the next House
to organize Senators German and Till
man pointed them out before election,
when they said that the burden of the
House would disorganize, distract and
embitter the factions of the party, ami
impair it's strength for 1900. But now
the Republicans must bear the full re-
sponsibility for whatever happens ia
either branch, in the heavens and ON
earth. There is no practical use in hav-
ing responsibility without power. AS L

losing the House of Representatives.

THE WILMINGTON TROUBLE


Washington Post.
We cannot believe that it was neces-
sary to shed blood in Wilmington. Surely
a people who had waited with admirable
forbearance for election day to give at
least a semblance of regularity to their
proposed reform in municipal govern
ment, might have exercised little more
patience and accomplished their results
with less tragic methods.
In saying this. the Post does not fail
in the least to appreciate the conditions
which prevailed in Wilmington, and
which made some change absolutely nee
essary Deprived of the right of suffrage
and compelled to accept mayor appoint
ed by the Governor, afflicted with magis-
trates whose administration of justice
was farce and compelled to endure
all the evils for which an incompetent and
worthless police force was responsible,
the tax-paying, business interests of
Wilmington were justified in demanding
a radical change in their local govern
ment. The situation in the city had
become unbearable and not only were
the citizens subjected to all the miseries
attendant upon maladministration but
the progress Of the city was arrested, and
foreign capital refused to find investment
in a locality where the future was dark
and uncertain.
These conditions, bad as they were.
were endured by the citizens in the
hone that, when election day arrived, the
white men would predominant at the
polls. Their hopes were realized. The
entire State of North Carolina, properly
Al; ~, Al SIIffa
ton in Wilmington and other Eastern
North Carolina towns voted by ire
mendous majority for Legislature
which would restore white supremacy.
With this, it seems to us, the people of
Wilmington ought to have been content.
In less than two months the new Legis-
lature would have assembled, in three
months, at most, obnoxious laws would
have been repealed, and ineffciency and
ignorance in municipal administration
would have been replaced by lnteill-
gence and capacity. Why not nave
waited, then. a few short weeks! why
not have kept the fair name of Whining
ton free from the stain Of blood!
The trouble was, of course, that the
people of Wilmington were in such
state of mind that the Iherest spark
caused an eAplCSlOH, anu inns spain
it is alleged, was due to the assault
of negro upon a white man. Even adj
hitting, however, that the negro was the
aggressor. we cannot believe that two
wrongs have made a right There has
been too prompt use of the rifle, toe
swift wreaking of angry vengeance
A people who had forbone So long could
have given to the world fine example
of highest moral courage and selt-contro
if they had only exercised wise and
proper restraint. AS it is, the revolution
in Wilmington, which could and shoulc
have been accomplished by peaceful
means, is stained with blood, and unlver
sal sympathy, which might have been
Wimington's portion, is clouded by
condemnation that does not lack good
and sufficient reason for its existence.
