The little poem Crossing the Bar" by
Tennyson, is so beautiful. The poet
made the request that it be put at the
end of all the editions of his writings.
1t seems almost sacrilege to touch the
hem of one of the pure phases or words
of Tennyson-and yet in this little poem,
it, will be recalled that TennysOn spoke
of going out to sea, and on the other
shore he said: II will meet my pilot
face to face" Some friends were talk
ing and it was suggested that the figure
seemed mixed. FOR the pilot is taken on
board at starting, and leaves the ship
when it gets outside" The same pilot
being spoken of, will some of our liter
airy men Stockard, Sledd Toy or some
of the balance read the poem and eX-
plain what this means. 1t may interest
many-certainly the group of friends
who were talking.

A VERY GREAT SPEECH.

The speech of Hon. John w. Daniel
on the Teller resolution is printed in full
in our Sunday supplement.
1t lis a clear and concise review o
the legislation connected with the issue
of government bonds and a complete an.
swer to those who are parading their
affected virtue in a desire to rob the
taxpayers to pay the bondholders twice
as much as the contract requires.
There We're good men who were de.
eeiyed in 1896 by the cry of "Repudia.
ton started by the bondhOlders and
taken up by those who followed then
blindIy. Senator Daniel shows beyond
question that instead of there being any
just cause for complaint on the part OF
the bondholder at receiving gold oil
silver at the option of the government
the government has in fact dealt will
them most generously. He shows thi!
by eminent Republican authority.
The issues of 1896 are unchanged. Ii
1898 and in 1900 the people who be
leve in honest and fair-dealing will de
mand that the bonds be paid accordin;
to the contract, and insist that the tw'
metals can be kept at a parity only b.
paying both, without giving preference
to either, and by opening the mints +

RECEIVES THE PRICE OF HIS TREACAERY.

Yesterday we noted that the wife Of
State Senator Odom, of the county of
Arson, had been appointed postmaster
of a town in that county, and gave a
short review of the career of Senator
Odom in Raleigh last winter. He serv-
ed the Republicans and the corporations
faithfully, and though his pay is not
large, The receives his thirty pieces of
silver"
This weeks Lenoir Topic tells of an
other Pritchard Populist who has receiv-
ed 'the price of his treachery." This
time it is Senator Wakefield, who lives
in Lenoir The Topic says:
1.-The Senator from Mitchell has land
ed pie at last. Collector Harkins has
given him 81, 200 clerkship in his Of
fee at Asheyille, and he went this morn
ing to take charge of his desk.
1T gives us pleasure for any of the
citizens of Caldwell, regardless of party,
to receive such desirable positions in the
service of the government, when they
are honorably obtained; but when they
come, as this one has, as the price OF
treachery, the appointment is brand
of dishonor. Every time he draws his
salary he should think Of his. Populist
constituents whom he betrayed. -
The people 81 the State are familiar
with Wakefield. In his section he was
flaming evangel of, silver and full
minating bolt against Corporations. His
followers looked up to him to coin the
white metal and destroy corporate greed
To these fenas they commissioned hin
to represent them in the Senate. During
the session. Of the Legislature he votet
for 4oldsflg MeKinleyite for United
States Senator and voted just as the big
Southern Railroad political boss want
ed him to vote. He did other things as
had which we would print if Che game
were worth the candle. The following
paragraph from the News and Observer
or February 2ftH, gives Wakefeld's
measure:
Sat 8 minutes to II Col. Andrews
accompanied Senator Wakefield to the
lobby and at 1906 they emerged.
AT. 1907 Col. A. B. Andrews was
shown to Il pleasant seat by Repre-
Hnsentative Gambler, of Buncombe.
AT two minutes to Senator
Wakefield voted with the railroad"
We keep track of the men who are
getting public pay for their betrayal OF
professed principles in voting for Mark
Hnnna's man for United States Sena-
tor. We do not do this because these
men will ever again count for anything
The jobs they are receiving are graves
in which they are being buried. The sal
aries are the potage for which they sold
their birth-right. We said at the time
that they would be we'll paid for Their
treachery We give details to show
how our prophecies are being fulfilled.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
WHAT PoPULIsTs WILL DO.
Rocky Mt. Argonaut.)

An Edgecombe county Democrat says
that the Populsts of his acquaintance
who will talk to all about the political
situation, say they are sufficiently
amused with their Republican allies
But that the majority refuse to discuss
the matter at all These he thinks will
not vote ut the next election. We think
this mistake. A large majority of the
Populists we have talked with say they
are tired of the present state of affairs
and will vote with the white mans
party. Some few say they are done with
politics and will not vote at all, but the
right kind of a ticket will bring then
to the polls all right.

RUNNING A SOAP FACTORY.


The News and Observer believes il
the gospel of decency and purity.
But decency and purity do not com
of themselves. 1t takes scrubbing an
the use of strong soap to make thing
| clean.
Public condemnation is the only scrub
bing that will clean up the filth in higl
places i'm North Carolina to-day. Th
| condemnation will not come unless there
is IN airing of the rascality.
The Truckers and Planters JOurna
recently paid the News and Observer the
| following compliment:
THE Raleigh News and Observer
would be very good newspaper II it
did not carry with it a smell some
what like fertilizer factory. 1t
publishes so much scandal that every
copy should be disinfected before
taking, simply as a precautionary
measure. Perhaps, however. it
should not be too severely criticised
for this. Soap factories don't smell
good, but people in the end are clean
err and healthier because there are
soap factories"
That's it exactly.
The body polite is so full of filth and
nastiness that unless a soap factory runs
in full blast all the time, enough soap
could not be manufactured to begin the
work of cleanliness. 1t isn't always
pleasant to run a soap factory. 1t is
work that is not desirable, but some
body must do it.
Some people think the way to clean mp
is to spread cologne everywhere, and to
drive out the bad smell with sweet
scents. That is wrong. Nothing but
good strong soap will ever clean out the
filth Of the present gang of officehOlders,
State and Federal, that disgrace the
State at home and abroad.
The News and Observer gives
daily recital of the doings
of the gang. It's their stencil;
our soap. If it smells like a fertilizer
factory, it is because the stink attaches
to the factory. Exposure does not make
a stencil. Ii the stencil did not exist,
no exposure would make it.
The News and Observer is its own
disinfectant. 1t PRINTS THE scandals
and points the way TO be rid of them.
You cannot gather figs from thorns.
You cannot have good government ad-
ministerd by had men. The Republi-
can party in North Carolin cannot give
good government. If Senator Pritchard
and Governor Russell were actuated by
the highest motives and wanted 10 give
good government, they couldn't do it.
The agents through whom they must
work are incorapetent, selfish, corrupt
From the clean government, inaugu-
rated by Vance till the present regime,
there was no need of soap factories.
Now in one year, there is need of more
soap than the News and Observer factory
rr;asaing day and night can turn ont.
The truckers and Planters Journal
ought to start up a soap factory IN
Columbus county to clean up the stains
Of Radical and Fusion rule, and make
the county sweet and clean for the
honest men w,nom thepeople will put in
power next November.

KIND RECEPTION.

We take pleasure in republishing the following from the SkOgway News. without comment;
 "It Is reported that a certain Astoria man who has an eye toglory and fame. rather than profits. contemplates start ing morning paper in Skagwsy. to be printed on a job press. While 1t Is true that every man who has the inclination. or the means to indulge his taste. has a perfect right to establish any legitimate enterprise that he chooses. still the News cannot help but remark that such a scheme as a Jim Crow" daily paper, m a town the size of Skagway. is not only lily advised on the part of the in- auxuator ot the enterprise. but would be really no credit whatever to the people of the town.
 The publisher of the News has repeat eily announced tha, he had the facili- ties anl the force nsccessary to issue a good sized dsiiy when the proper time arrl-sd for such an enterprise. hnt jn-t ai present there Is no call. it seems to us. for anything of the kind. The News does not presume to know the Financial condition of the business men of Skag- way, or how long their purse strings may be. but thus we do know, that they can scarcely afford to pay four or five times as much for advertising their business as they are doing at the present time. The merchants and those persons who are engaged in various lines of business in Skagway, have been ap. preached by solicitors for advertising schemes cf every conceivable kind and nature. and their time has been filched from them and their patience exhausted by calls for benevolent and charitable purposes. until. it would seem to Us. they would almost feel like firing" the advertising agent bodily from their places of business. when he calls with his solicitations. What the News de- sires to say is this: A daily paper tha, will be a credit to the community. and ono that the people can take a pride in sending to friends in the east, will bc issued from this office just as soon as the business will justify the venture. If we were pining and longing for glory, we would establish daily this week, but as we are running legitimate newspaper, the proprietor can not. in justice to his family. sink what little means he may possess in that way"
