WHITE FOLKS WILL NOT STAND THESE
THINGS.

In his speech at Monroe on Tuesday
Mr.. John -. Bclamy, stated that III
Robeson county, Miss Britt, a white lady
teacher, had to walk sever, miles to get
negro school committeeman to sign
her voucher for the money she had earn
ed. This is not all the indignities to
which white people are subjected, for
Mr. Bellamy' added:
"Another white lady in Robson county
had to stand an examination before
seven buck negroes and not one of them
ever offered her n seat In another
township negro committeeman took
the chair in white lady's school and
bosscd il. We will not stand this, and
| warn the negro, for many of them
do not want this, | warn him il he
continues we will put it down. Russell
is vile. He selected, not Il quiet and
inoffensive negro, to put forward, but
II mean one. Jim Young, whom he him
self had publicly prosecuted in Whining
ton for perjury. This man he put on the
board that controls the deaf, dumb ana
blind Institutes, he made him fertili-
ger inspector, and then, turning down
competent white men and two rcspecta-
bic negroes, he made him colonel of II
regiment, all because Young has influ-
ence with the negroes and will use
it for Russell"
We do not expect these things to ex-
cite Indignation in the breasts of those
white men who are getting big salaries
through negro support. They have al
ready sold their brthright for mess
of pottage, and would see every white
teacher in the State further Inundated
in order to keep their jobs. They are
even now running over the State apollo
giving for such offences as Mr.. Bcllamy
mentioned and keeping silent upon the
greater outrages that have made the
white women of the country districts
afraid to leave their homes without pro.
lection.
Our appeal is to white men with white
hearts. who love their race better than
they love pie. They compose the rank
and file of the white men of all parties.
They want decent government. They are
tired of the scandals, the elevation of
the negro, and the outrages that charac-
terize the present rule. They are laying
aside party ties and coming together to
restore White Supremacy in their loved
State.

IT IS TIME TO CALL A HALT.
Greensboro Telegram.
Six years ago there was not a negro
in North Carolina, no matter how
black his heart, who would have dar-
ed to give public utterance to the above.
And it is IN everlasting shame and dis
grace that the day has ever dawned
when Il black-hearted/ demon in this fair
land should grow so bold as to make
such sweeping declarations.
Who is to blame? We submit that
under II white mans government it
would never have been said. Clothed
with brief authority in Wilmington
land it must be brief the negroes are
growing bold. A check must be put
on this kind of thing. The English
vocabulary does not contain terms suffi-
ciently strong to properly characterize
and den0unce the cold bl0oded incarnate
devil who pens such slanderous lies
about as pure and virtuous women as
live upon Gods footst0ol.
Poor white men are careless in the
matter of protecting their women, es-
pccinlly on the farms" How will the
Populist relish this, though coming
from Il race and party of which such
men as Butler, Aver and Thompson
have made them allies? We repeat,
that without this alliance no negro
would ever have been bold enough to
have uttered the Islander.
White men of North Carolina, study
the situation. Whittier are we drift
ing? 1t is time to call halt. Say to
all men: Belong to whatever party or
church you please; talk about the evil
and base acts of men; but hear it We
demons be your face white or black,
you shall guard your venomed tongues
and keep your fonl hands off the fair
name of w0manhood in North Caro-
lima!

AIEGlTIMATE RESULT.

We would not seem to accuse any
white man, or set of white men, with
countenancing approving or abetting
the scurriIous and infamous attack
upon white women printed in the Will
mington negro paper, the Daily Record.
1t is better to wait and see what men
will condemn themselves by a condoning
silence with regard to it.
At the same time it can not be con-
cealed nor denied that this infamous
SANDER upon the white women of the
State is legitimate and logical result
of present political conditions in North
Carolina. When white men controlled
the State government, white men who
were not dependent upon the suffrage
of ignorant and vicious negroes, nothing
of the sort occurred 1t would not have
occurred if the government of such men
had been continued to the present time
You can not sow the wind without
reaping the whirlwind. The negro can
not be elevated to positions above the
white man without his coming to feel
himself the equal of the white man, and
to resent the fact that the white man
does not so consider him. 1t is from
this feeling that such revolving charges
as that of the negro organ in Whining
ton spring.
The test has been made. Give the ne
gro political superiority and he will rage
inwardly that he is not given social
equality The more intelligent men of
the race may not do so; the more in
telligent men of the race may condemn
! negro SANDERS of white women; but
the intelligent men do not control the
race. They are controlled by the ignor-
ant in their political course.
The Wilmington sheet did not speak
nnadvisedly. 1t voiced the sentiments
of the great majority Of its constituency.

When it became an apoIogist for rape

The white man must rule and will
rule in North Carolina. Mongrel gov.
eminent brings with it depth of in
fanny, too hdeous to be contemplated
or endured The only plea that can be
made by the men who have helped tc
produce conditions from which such
things spring is tnat they did not for
see the results that have followed. Such
plea can not be entered hereafter
The experiment has been tried in tn,

rises at the outcome. Henceforth there

sponsibility. Every man makes his
choice deliberately and advisedly. Tit

The man who plows the OK is welcome
in the Democratic party. 1t has many
such and there is none in its ranks of
whom it is more proud. There will be
many more poor but honest men IN its

have grown tired of being traded and

stripe.
Now, as always, the Democratic party
is the party Of the poor man. II carries
his welfare next its heart. 1t never
taunts him with his poverty nor treats
him with insolence when he disagrees
with its policy. There is no other party
that can truthfully say so much.
1t is in those Republican counties in
North Carolina. where the negro con-
trolls, that negroes commit assaults on
white women. The negro sheet of Will
mingtOn declares these cases to be merely
liaisons discovered. The 0utrages and the
Islander are both the outgrowth of plac
ing the negro in power. The east bears
witness to the truth of the assertion
that under negro officials negro criminals
multiply.
