HERE'S THE DIFFERENCE.

We publish elsewhere communication
from farmer now living in Perquimans
county who gives an incident that eff
fectually answers all the Rep.-Pop. lies,
He says that certain negroes in Gates
county voted for Cleveland when he ran
the second time. and that after the
election they demanded to be made road
overseers. The Democrats refused to lp-
point them and they went to the Rep
Pop. crowd because that aggregation
promised to appoint members of their
race overseers of the roads. The promise
has been kept in certain counties, anu
white men are forced to work the public
roads under negro overseers.
Note the difference: The Democrats
educate the negroes, care for their in
sane and other unfortunates, protect
them in their rights, and treat them fair
ly. But, for no consideration, will they
let them rule over white men. Rather
than do that, they prefer defeat

negroes in all places of trust, from direc-
tor of the white blind institution, solicitor
and Congressman to overseer of roads.
managers of white public schools, and
every other place where they have the
power, as is evident in Craven, where ne
groes are nominated for register Of
deeds, treasurer, commissioner, represen-
tative coroner and other important posi-
tions where they will rule over white
men.
That's the difference between the par
ties White men with white principles
will have no difficulty in deciding which
way to vote.

An officer in the First North Carolina
regiment writes that fully ninety per
cent of the men in that regiment are
anxious to be mustered out SO they can
return to their homes, and appeals to
this paper to use its influence to have an
order issued mastering the regiment out
of service. Our friend has evidently for
gotten to observe that no paper can
exert any influence except such papers
as are in accord with the policy OF
making capital for the Republican party
out of the war. The mastering in and
mastering out are all determined by pc
litical considerations, and the patriotic
men are made to suffer in order to help
the Republican party.

OBJECT LESSON OF NEGRO ELEVATION

Solicitor, was speaking at Elm City, "a
negro mounted the platform and insisted
upon having, his say, raising quite a

After quiet had been restored, the speak

THE CASE OF G. SAM BRADSHAW.

The Republicans and Populists Ct
GuilfOrd county have fused and named
as the head of the joint ticket q. Sam
Bradshaw, Esq, late clerk of the SUI
perior court of Randolph county.
Who is G. Sam Bradshaw? What has
he done that he should receive the sup
port of the "reformers' in Guilford
county?
Until 1896 he was Democrat. He
had held office twelve years or there
abouts.
At Chicago the Democrats nominated
Bryan and declared for free silver.
G. Sam couldn't stand that. lie
wanted honest money. He regaroe|
with distrust any party that wanted TO
pay debts in deprecated currency.
He believed in scruDulOus honesty-at
least he said so. Bryan's espousal OF
what he called "a fifty-cent'' dollar made
G. Sam unwilling to support him.
Nothing but IA 10O-cent gold dollar would
satisfy G. Sam. And 50 he quit the
organized Democracy.
The next heard of G. Sam he was
canvassng the State for Palmer and
Buckner, denouncing 'repudiation," ana
declaring that man who paid his honest
debts in "fifty-cent" dollars was all sorts
of a rascal. and pleading for the gold
standard and Grover Cleveland Demo
cracy. They did say that g. Sam found
the business of advocating the gold
standard profitable and was well pald
for his advocacy of the "honest dollar.
1t was observed that he made no speech
es about Reputation" or the honest
dollar" in Randolph county. His homo
people had no chance of applauding his
dissertation upon paying 'honest debts
in honest dollars
On election day G. Sam voted for Nc
Kinley.
Since then he has been a Republican
with big $. He wants his dollars
"sound" and ''hOnest."
During the Legislature of 1897, G.
Sam spent much time in Raleigh and his
genial countenance added to the general
gayety of the situation, but his brightest
smile was reserved for DR.. ID. Reid
Parker, Senator from Randolph. de
was in Raleigh to convince ID. Reid
that it would improve his health to vote
for Pritchard, that it would make him
more vigorous and add to his circuia-
ton. u. Reid would and he wouldn't,
but G. Sam finally got the doctor so
sick that he couldn't do Jeter c. amy
harm. Did it improve DIR. Reids circula-
ton? He gets So per day for holding
Farmers Institutes.
G. Sam soon thereafter shook the
dust of his feet off against AsLebOro and
located in Greensboro, where he still re-
sides. He never delivered his famous
speech on paying honest debts in honest
dollars" in Randolph county. Perhaps
he will do so this year.
And now G. Sam, who canvassed the
State for Palmer and Buckner and voted
for Mckinley, is the Populist candidate
for the Senate in Guilford county VIII
he win?
&. Sam will win if the Populists are
all gold-bugs, and if they can be charmed
by his orations against the dishonest
Bryanites who want to pay "honest debts
in dishonest dollars"
Will the Populists listen to such
pronounced gold-bug?
The pie-hunters will. The honest ones
will not.

list office-holders convention made his
neck feel the guillotine.
In Wake county Senator Utley and
Representative Ferrall had voted against
Pritchard and refused to do the bidding
of the Republican bosses. They were
both left outside the breast-works and
the Republicans given the Senatorship.
In Halifax county, where the negroes
have big majority, there was some
hitch about fusion when the Republican
and Populist chairmen wrote letters to
the leaders of both parties telling them
to agree upon fusion. Result: the Popu-
lists must support two negroes for the
House and for other places.
In Guilford county, where there are
very few Populists, the Republicans and
Populists have agreed upon fusion tick
ct headed by G. Sam Bradshaw, late of
Randolph. who stumped the State in 1896
for Palmer and Buckner and then voted
for Mckinley.
These are a few sample nominations
showing the methods which the POpulist
offce-holders and manipulatOrs are pur-
suing under the direction of the Republi-
can Executive Committee. The office
holders and pie-hunters have the ma
chinery of the party in their hands
and they can dictate such nominations
as the above. and shamelessly endorse
the nominations of such gold Cleveland
ties as c. Sam Bradshaw and the ne
groes in Halifax county-we say that
the machine can go on doing things
of this sort just so long as they pack
their conventions, but that the people
at the polls will not ratify such betrayal
of principles.
There are thousands of Populists who
do not talk out who have long memories.
They remember that they voted to turn
out the Democrats because Cleveland
struck down silver and because they
were told that his action had brought
them to five cent cotton. This year,
with cotton lower than under Cleve-
land, with bond issues filling the treasury
with an unnecessary surplus, and with
in federal and State govern
ments, with corrupt rule at Washington
and negro rule at home-with these
things confronting him, the average Pop
ulist voter will walk to the polls and
vote for the party of the White Man
and the White Metal.

TWO SPEECHES. PRITCHARD AND BOYD

The Republicans have resolved TO Iuse
with the Populists in Guilford and in
Rutherford. Two big Federal officers
were present when the arrangements
were entered into. What did they say to
induce the Populists to vote for fusion
with the gold party?
Col. James e. Boyd spoke at Green's
boro, praising Mckinley and the adj
ministration. From the Records account
of his speech, we quote:
s'He made fun, of course, of the white
man and the white metal telling of the
value of silver dollar in Porto Rico
and Santiago, which is less than half Of
ours, etc. But he couldn't keep from
getting back on the white liners evil
IDENTIFY this fact worrying him and being
llppermost in his mind. He referred to
the times of IA. rs and said we did
not want to go back to such days, but
follow the Republican banner and keep
times good
The proposition to keep times good
will not meet with approval from the
farmers who are getting five cents for
their cotton. Col. Boyd forgets as he
draws his big salary in gold that it takes
half bale of cotton every day to pay
his salary He would like to keep times
good by staying in office. Was it 10
keep such gold-bugs in office and APP
plaud the bond issue that the Populists
organized their party? Evidently Col.
Boyd thinks so.
AT Rutherfordton Senator Pritchard
grated. He is thus reported by the
Charlotte Observer:
Senator Pritchard referred to his
course in voting to issue bonds under
the war revenue measure and, despite
the fact that a good many Populists were
in the court house, defended his course
He denounced the issue of greenbacks
and lauded the Republican measures"
Here we have the man elected to the
Senate by Populist votes defending the
unnecessary bond issue and denouncing
the issue of greenbacks and lauding other
like Republican measures. The CORE
spondent does not tell us what the
Populists did. but later they met and
fused with the men who denounced
greenbacks and favored bond issues. VIII
the Populist voters not in office approve
such fusion! The indications are that
most of them will not do so, but will re-
pudiate the alliance with the party which
Pritchard and Boyd endorse and hold up
as the party to be supported.
In 1894 Pritchard and Boyd grew
hoarse in denouncing bond issues and
Cleveland's gold policy, and the Populsts
joined with them.
To-day these Republican leaders grow
hoarse approving bond issues, the gold
standard, ridiculing silver, and denounc-
ing greenbacks.
Will the Populists join with them now !?
Tine office-holders and pie-hunters are nj
ready doing so, but there is a revolt going
on among the masses.
The country people have long memo
ries. They do not forget that Cleveland's
bond issue and anti-silver legislation
drove them from the Democratic party
in 1894. Are they likely to turn now
and applaud the very same policy they
denounced then?
That is what they will answer by their
votes in November. A vote for fusion
approves bonds, gold and Pritchard's de-
nunciation of greenbacks.

THE war news of this week con-
sists of the feat of sinking a vessel
in the mouth of Santiago harbor to
cork the Spaniards in. 1t was a
great piece of work, but the crew
was captured by the Spaniards.
The Charleston has reached and
left the Hawaiian Islands.
A second lot of soldiers was sup
posed to have left San Francisco
yesterday for Manila, and the Mon
terey and collier are ready to start.
Some troops have been landed in
Cuba, and more are on their way.
1t is reported that Manila has
surrendered to the Insurgents.
The reconcentrados in and around
Havana have nearly all starved to
death.

The bravery of Lieutenant Hob
son and his crew, who sank YES
sci in the mouth of the Santiago
harbor, under the fire of the Span
ish guns, is now the topic of COM
ment of the whole world. Such a
daring deed has seldom been equal
ed and never excelled But then
our men are all all right. What Is
the matter with the 1900 who vol
unteered to go with Hobson? There
is nothing superior to American
courage and daring on land or sea.
Three cheers for Hobson and his

THAT INVESTIGATION

There has been an investigation
of affairs at the Orphans Home in
Carson, and while some very harsh
things have been said about the
management, and partially proven,
there is not one particle of evidence
to show that the name of the young
lady who has been dragged into the
unfortunate affair should ever have
been mentioned. 1t has not been
shown that she has even been in
discreet in her conduct at any time,
much less did the evidence show
that she has done anything cnbe-
coming a thorough lady. In resent
ing the insults of male attendant
at the institution she probably in
Cured his enmity, and for protect
ing her honor is being assaied by
him and his friends.
The people of Lyon county have
known Miss Lizzie Stock since her
childhood, and we doubt if a single
person can be found who can truth
fully point to single wrong act
committed by her from childhood
up. She is bright, intelligent
young lady, and has sought and
been rewarded with positions of
trust to make IA living for herself
She is competent to fill any position
to which she aspires, and in assail-
ing her character, or even intimat-
ing that she has stepped aside from
the narrow path, shameful wrong
has been done her.
1t is easy to spoil good name,
but lifetime cannot regain 1T, and
it strikes us that those who have
tried to smirch her character should

LET THE CANAL BE THE PEO
PLIES.

Senator Stewart, of Nevada, has
introduced bill providing for the
construction of the Nicaraguan Ca
nal by the United States govern
ment. That is the correct principle.
There is no need for an intermediate
corporation. Private capital will
not build the canal unless it has
the governments guaranty behind
it's bonds That means simply that
this governments credit, which is
equivalent to money, should pay for
the work, and that when the work
was done the canal would belong
not to the government but to a
private company.
An undertaking of such national
importance as the Nicaraguan Ca
nal ought to be strictly national
affair. 81
Build the Nicaraguan Canal ,
build it with the peoples money,
and let the people be the sole owners
of it. Military necessity demands
the canal, and the country's com
merce, present and future, joins in
the demand.

Another suspect.

Harry Barrett, was in from Mason
Valley this week, and beis inclined
to the belief that the Waterman left
to attend his sisters house was run
ming bluff when he related the
story about shooting at person
caught trying to set the house on
fire last week. Barrett thinks the
Waterman put the sack under the
house, dropped the coaloil bottle,
and fired the gun off to obtain "a
record. There are others, however,
who believe the watchman's story,
and think that some fellow in the
valley is packing about several
ounces of shot in his back and legs.
