did increase race hatred, the root of
the matter lies far deeper. 1t UNI
doubtedly lies in the determination OF
the whites not to be ruled by the ne
groes. Failing to carry the
matter at the polls, they car
ried it with the shot gun. 1t is a
thing much to be regretted, but it is
the natural legacy from the times of
slavery, and thirty years is too short
a time to bring about Cancellation be-
tween the descendants of the slave
slaves. Things usually advance so rap
idly on the mainland that it is hard to
realize how long it must take for an
tagonistic races to amalgamate. 1t
took the SaXons and the Normans con-
sderably more than two hundred
years to become really one people and
to lose in the one hatred and in the
other contempt.
But when the people have gone to-
SCluCI manu- III MANU- lOl lllS DcllSI
part of century upon relations OF
equality, as has been the case here,
the matter is entirely different. Po-
litical changes alone do not create race
hatred. The overthrow of the Saxon
kingdom was a conquest followed by
practical enslavement and general
contiscation. The emancipation of the
negroes was a social cataclysm which
virtually confiscated a large portion
of the property in the south and rails
ed a subject race to equality with
their former masters.
Under our own republic, the Ha-
waiian became satisfied. Under the
territorial form of government, which
we shall shortly have, he will probably
be more than satisfied, for he will find
that he has more rights than ever he
had under the monarchy. The Fed
eral offices will in all probability be
filled from the mainland in the greater
part, but the territorial will be
filed by our own people, and of these
the Hawaiians are a large part. Ha.
waiians and Foreigners have worked
together tremendously in office fol-
| years and there is no reason why they
| should not continue to do so. There
is no race prejudice here against al
Hawaiian occupying office and there
never will be. Consequently there can
not be race hatred. The conditions il
the Carolinas, and the conditions here
are entirely different, and the case!
can form no parallel with one another
What has occurred there can never
occur here, simply because the reasons
for such action do not exist.

was not incendiary and was not a slur
upon the white women of the state.
1t has been reprinted in full by many
journals and certainly it is by no
means an ''inoffensive animal" 1t was
written apparently in the cause of
peace, but it was intended to spread
race hatred and to insult the whites.

Makes Fairbrothers's Farrago Tired.

All honor to the patriot and SOL
der, no matter what his position be-
fore the war, but it makes us tired
to hear papers talk about men who
gave up lucrative positions to enlist.
We know a few who did that-but
they are precious few. On the other
hand we read of where companies
marched away and after being in
camp two days wrote back letters
asking aims, claiming that the brave
boys did not have change of shirts
and tie Government was slow in
providing clothing. Those same
fellows, lots of 'em, had shirts in the
laundry that had been there three
weeks before they enlisted and
would have remained all summer if
they had not enlisted. Two-thirds
of those who enlisted were all right
fellows, but they were out of a job,
and it was for this reason that they
went to war. They are none the less
patriots, but the tommy-rot about
them leaving lucrative positions
makes many people smile.

I'VE think that an incident so

overlooked by a grateful country.
1t was followed quickly by other dis
plays of unselfish courage-the whole
history of our war is bewildering

distinguished by patient, modest
heroism, so characterized by in

AROUSED AS NEVER BEFORE.

The central and western portions
of the State are being aroused as
never before over the disgraceful
conditions existing in the eastern
counties of North Carolina. There
are good men in these sections who
have sympathized with and given
their support to the Populist party
who would have never done so had
they known anything about the dis
grace it would bring upon their white
brethren in the east. 1t is only nee
essary that the existing conditions
be made known and these men will
return to the Democratic banner
the Anglo-Saxon flag. Men from
these sections are going through the
east to see for themselves, besides
numerous letters of inquiry are
being received. These means of in
formation were never resOrted to be-
fore, and they mean that these sec
tions are in more perfect sympathy
with the east than they have ever
been before. Reflector.

Editor Free Press:-It is doubtless
best for minister of the Gospel to
be as non-partisan in his politics as
possible. This policy l have hereto
fore and will continue to pursue, but
it has come to pretty pass in our
town when our white daughters can't

as the ace of spades, much younger
than themselves, is to heap upon
them

white girl, who was attacked by one
of these little coons, with all the
daring and gravity of lord over his

the daughter of respectable but
helpless widow of our town.

The foregoing appeared in the Kin
ston Free Press Saturday, August
9th. The editor of The Common
wealh knows Mr.. Blanchard, and has
known him from the days of our
youth. We know no truer, manlier
man in North Carolina. He is an
educated, Christian gentleman, and
being a minister of the Gospel he
naturally feels a hesitancy in appear
ing in print relative to such matter,
as may be seen by reading his card
carefully; and he would be one of the
last men to communicate his con-
victions to the public through the
newspapers without good reasons for
so doing.
The whole truth of the matter is
this: Appointment of the colored
people to public office has come to be
so common a thing by the present
Republican rule. national and State,
that it has turned the head of the
entire negro race; the evidences of
which may be seen elsewhere than in
kinston and by others than Baptist
minister.
Race clash is to be deplored, but
when quiet and prudent and con-
sentative minister Of the Gospel feels
called upon to denounce the bold
impudence of even colored females
in front of his gate, and appeal to
his fellowcitizens to take cognizance
OF its tendency. it is time for all
white people to begin to make efforts
to stop it.
