THE RACE ISSUE IN NORTH CARO-
LIMA.

Every thoughtful and humane
citizen from one end of the country
or the other. will be appalled, by the
prospect now discernable in North
Carolina. 1t i no longer possible
that the clamor of the whites is
merely revival of the old Demo-
cratic trick to catch votes and ride
into official places and perquisiteS.
On the contrary we are confronted
with the admissions of prominent
Republicans TO the effect that the
question is far deeper and more vital
that it is in fact, question OF sim
pie civilization. We are carried back
thirty wears to the dark and bloody
episode of demonstrations and see
once more the menace Of the struggle
between anarchy and organized
society. That menace is obliterating
mere party lines and bringing to-
gether the whites. without reference
To political affiliations. in solid
phalanN of >elf-defense. The issue
involves the preservation OF en-
Gghtened institutions. of honest Gov
eminent, of law and order and
the integrity Of the Caucasian race.
II * an issue that can have but one
termination.
Apparently. the white Republic
cans have gone too far in their effort
to keep control of the North Caro-
lima patronage. They have simply
repeated the maIign and sinister per
tormance> of the carpct-bagger> of
'6S- and invited similar cataS-
trophe. The Southern people have
shown already that they cannot and
will not submit TO negro domination
with all that implies. The negro
has proven TO the satisfaction of the
entire country that he is incapable Of
conducting 4 civilized ana whole
some Government. As far back a
1869. the Northern men who went
South 10 invest money and make for
themselves permanent homes and
legitimate careers. recognized the I'M
questionable fact that local negro
rule was hopele>>ly inconsistent with
social order and material prosperity
They accordingly joined the native
whites in all matters connected with
domestic politics. while voting the
Republican ticket in all national
contests. Il was with their aid and
sympathy that the South threw of
the incubus. and after eight long
years OF tragedy. stood erect At last.
Ii seems. however. that the North
Carolina leaders have forgotten the
lesson of thirty wears ago. and are
about to revive the horrors and ca.
lamities OF that abominable episode

THE STATE FAIR.

As had been foreshadowcd the
State Fair this wear wa success in
every way The exhibits were up L"
the usual standard and the attend
anct wa, large. On Thursday there
was a great crowd. 1000 tickets
being taken in at the gates it is said.
The snidc shows and attendant fakes
and frauds were there although the
public had been led to believe that
gambling of every description would
be prohibited. There is no objection
to the legitimate sideshow and decent
and innocent amusemcnts of like
character, but games OF chance,
vulgar performances and loose eN-
hibitions should not be permitted.
With the exception above men
toned the fair was a pronounced
success and too much praise cannot
be given Col. John 5. Cunningham,
the intelligent and indefatigable
president, for his wise, energetic
and judicious management, 1t was
a fitting recognition Of Col. Cunning
hams administrative and executive
ability that he should be unanimous
" reelected president Of the Asso-
citation, an honor he has shown him
self eminently worthy OF. Mr.. F. B.
Arcndell, Of the News and Observer
staff, was elected secretary.
The following editorial reference
is from the Raleigh Post:
Too much praise cannot be bestOw-
ed upon President Cunningham Of
the Agricultural Society, Secretary
Nichols. Chief Marshal Drcwrv and
the committees and others who have
aided them, in the splendid results
Of their labors in connection with the
Great fair Of 1898. Every detail was
admirably arranged, and carried out
without a hitch. The exhibits, too,
III every department Of art and in
dustry, an epitomc Of the achieve
mcnts of our people in every voca-
ton, shows the earnest sympathy
and corporation Of the people OF the
State.
The crowds in attendance have
been extraordinary. not onl Y for
numbers, but for their high character.
They are representatives OF the
energy, the refinement, the culture.
the accomplishments Of the State.
No untoward incident to mar the
success of the occasion, or the happi-
ness of the multitude, has occurred.
The weather has been most pleasant.
This Fair marks an epoch in the
history of the Society May it take
on new life, and 90 forward on its
high mission. 1t is a great agency
for good, and may its prosperity be
equal to its opportunities.

1t is altogether probable that the
House will be carried by the white
men by good majority. The Senate
