THERE Is DANGER AHEAD.

1t Is we'll known that for twenty
years the railroad monopoly i'm North
Carolina Zone of the most powerful
agencies of the gold syndicate) has
controlled largely the conventions OF
both the Democratic and the Republic
can parties. They have controlled
not only their political conventions
but have dominated their legislatures
after they were elected, exercised an
astonishing influence with the gov
eminent, and also, it is feared, infiu-
enced to a certain extent the judiciary
1t gives us great pain to make this
statement, but it gives us greater pain
to know that it is true. The only
thing that could impel us to advertise
such humiliating condition is the
belief that the only way to break such
an Infamous influence is to expose it.
One of the most active and influen-
tial of Rothschild's agents in the State
has been Col. A. b. Andrews. lie has
been the king bee In both Democratic
and Republican councils. When Bryan
was nominated he was so astonished
and chagrined that he came out from
under cover for the first time and
boldly supported Mckinley. This act
Of his gave great pleasure and relief
for they thought that since he had
come out in the open that he would no
longer be able to control the leaders OF
the Democratic party and poison their
councils. But such a hope, it seems,
was ill-founded. There are to-day
many signs that Col. Andrews is "a
actively attempting to manipulate the
next Democratic State Convention as
he ever has any Democratic State Con-
vention in the past or any Republican
State Convention. Not only that
but this "overseer" Of the Roths-
childs has grown still more ambitious
and is now conspiring to control the
next State Convention of the People'i
party, also. He has his railroad at
torneys IN every quarter Of the State
II not in every county. He has hi
pets and influential men who hav,
been given favors in dozens of differ
ent ways. He is ready to distribut,
mileage books or free passes and n,
doubt to 60 to the extent of furnish
ing cold cash to accomplish his pur
pose.
Let the masses Of the people be OF
their guard. The CAUCASIAN is Civ
ing timely warning. There is n,
danger, however, il the masses of tn
people will 60 to their primaries ant
elect true men rs delegates to the con
vention. But at every township pri
mary and every county county con
vention in the State there will be som

dangerous, il the people fail to 90 t
the primaries and take charge of thei
party affairs; it is not dangerous an
will utterly fail il the people will ris
in their majesty and rebuke these mo
nopOly agents and hirelings.
Again we say that these monOpol
agents and hirelings are to-day q
work in all three political parties, an

The time has come for North Carolin

1t can be done; it must be done. Th
first step to do 1t is for the people them

HORN on THE DILEMMA.

WHICH HORN Oh The DSIEN"A.
The Post OF this city 10 . late issue
boldly asserts that mo railroad in this
state is earning 4 per cent. on its real
value ny their own reports for last

ings of the three principle lines in this

This is 4 per cent. on ISL ,03l ,325 The
law requires the railroads to give in
their property for taxation At its true
raIas. These three railroads list and pay |
taxes on s2l 100000. Now either they
are cheating the State out of taxes on
$50 600 900 OF true raioe leaving the pub |
lie to pay it for them, besides the high
freights and fares, or they are earning
4 per cent. on $50 ,O00, 900 OF water. As
the Post asserts it is not a railroad
organ, it can say which horn Of the
dilemma gores the railroads the most.
Even the elastic pencil showers OF the
railroads in their reports only return
the actual cost OF the above three rail-
roads at sos, 100000. Even ii that could
be realized on, the "cOst" embraced all
sorts OF extravagancies, and a large
part OF the roads were built when cot
ton ranged from Is to % cents per
pound and everything else was in pro-
portion. On that basis Of sG6, 900 900 Of
costs, they are earning net 5000 900 over
and above per cent, and a reduction in
salaries, lobbying expenses, newspa-
pers, ownership, etc., would we'll enable
them to reduce freight and passenger
charges to the people 81 ,OOO. 900 and yet
leave them per cent. on their alleged
cost Of $G6,OOO,OOO. But on the basis
