No Longer a POpulist

Mr.. j. N. Quinn, a prominent popu-
list Of Darfer. Cleveland county, who
has been selected as a registrar, writes
a letter to the Shelby Star in which
he says that he is no longer a populist
He says in part:
"A few years ago did join the pop
ulist party, thinking that it would car
ry into effect the principles for which
it stood, and would be a benefit to the
country. 1t was in favor Of free sill
yer and other kindred reforms and /
was in hearty accord with the party,
believing that these things would bring
relief to the people. / am still of the
same opinion, therefore l do not mean
to fuse with the republicans, the gold
standard negro party. As soon as the
populist party began fusing with the
republicans and electing gold bugs to
Office. and our populist members of
the general assembly, 19 of them, }
voted for Pritchard and assisted the
republicans in turning over the east
/ decide then that il We wanted free
silver and a white mans government
We would have to get it from some
other source, and / returned to the
fold of the democratic party and /
have come back to stay. I will never
vote or lend my aid or influence to any
party that is responsible for the state
of affairs which exist in North Caro-
lima at the present time"

TWINS IN INIQUITY.

One negro, a candidate for the leg
islature, would walk long distance
to lynch a negro who dared to vote
for the White Mans ticket. Another
negro, Stewart Ellison, a Wake coun-
ty politician of the patent kind, said,
as reported by The News and OBJ
server:
eff any negro votes the democratic
ticket, I would like to strike him one
thousand lashes. I am honest in what
I say.
"a negro has got no business voting
anything but a republican ticket, Let
US go along, regardless Of the demo-
cratic party. We are going to beat
them. We are going tC give them the
devil in November
This is refreshing sample Of mig
ger talk. It is about on a par with
the talk of a tribe in Africa that have
lived in squalOr and never heard of
the Bible and the Divine Son, ard
know nothing of liberty and enlisht-
ened government and the examples of
the elevated, refined, enlightened ma
tions. Person and Ellison ought to
be packed in a basket and sent to the
Dark Continent that the native Sam
bos may see how their kin can live
for generations in a land of civiliza-
tion and remain ''savages" Russell

Mr.. Samuel Pate, an industrious far
mer Of Martin county, was a visitor in
New Bern, yesterday. and seeing how
matters stood here, was so shocked
that he declared at once that he was
through with populism, and was for
democracy and white mans govern
ment hereafter.
Being caller In The Journal Office
Mr.. Pate left the following statement
for publication:
ITO the people OF North Carolina
Two years ago / was persuaded to
leave the democratic party, In hopes
Of furthering certain reforms which I
was led to believe could be secured
through the agency OF the populist
party and through that party alone.
But since the eventful election OF 1896,
/ have had my Dyes opened to the cor
ruption of the populist leaders, and
have witnessed the ungodly subversion
of principle to greed. / have seen that
the populist machine aids, abets, and
stands pledged to foster negroism even
more firmly upon the people of the old
North State than that which at pres
ent curses our people.
Fellow citizens. / am a white man,
and believe that this country and this
state should be controlled by white
men, and by white men alone I am
for white supremacy first, last and all
the tims. / cannot stand with party
which stands for negroism and every
species Of wrong and misgovernment.
In Craven county l see the negroes
are completely in control of the repub-
lican party and yet the populists are
moving heaven and earth to arrange
fusion with such a crowd. l cannot,
will not, support any such unholy
movement, and when election day rolls
around, / will be found voting the
democratic ticket, and get all others l
can, which is the only ticket for a
white man to vote.

"REAL CONDITIONS, >,

1t is thought that the negro bearing
IS less aggressive and violent now than
1T was two or three weeks ago. This
may be true as to the males. There is
an understanding now that they must
put breaks on until after the election
as demonstrations of lawlessness might
injure the radical cause. We give two
recent illustrative instances, both
unqualifiedly true, of recent date.
A few days ago two young ladies met
two negro women on a rather narrow
side walk. One of the negroes rather
jostled one of the whites, perhaps suf-
ficiently to shove her aside. The
whites passed on taking no notice of
the affront. A few feet behind the ne
groes came an old negro woman. She
stopped and said to the young lady:
Honey, did dey shove you off de
walk?" The reply was yes. She then

In the Asheboro Courier, Mr.. NJ S.
Robins, a well known lawyer and a
gentleman of high character and good
abilities, writes a letter commenting
upon some of the political organs and
shameless bounding of Cy Thomp-
son, the war chief of the political
Sioux in North Carolina It seems
that Cy brought a charge against Mr..
Robins as a law-maker when in the
legislature. The charge was that he
had voted to make negroes magis-
trates. It was a charge we'll calculated
to arouse Mr.. Robins sternest indigna-
ton. He denies the statement, and
it would be a good thing for all de-
cent white men if they could do Sc
science. There was never a greater
travistic on justice than to clothe
Sambo with judicial powers and allow
him to set up a court. If the results
had not been SO offensive and griev-
Gus the burlesque would be extremely
laughable. Mr.. Robins says this, and
we quote but part:
ddu L DeeH SO Idr IOTSeI1ul or the
AnglOSaxOn blood that courses
through my veins as to knowingly and
wilfully cast such a vote, I Should
have deserved the scorn of all decent
white people. But how such a vote
cast by me and others, had it been
done, which I deny, can justify Cy
Thompson and his fusion crowd in
openly, unblushingly, and shameIessly
bounding on negro govei nment over
the people Of North Carolina, and es-
pecfally Eastern North Carolina, is be-
yond my conception and, I take it, the
conception of all decent and self-re-
specting people everywhere. That one
or several mems sin can justify other
men in committing the same sin is a
doctrine that I apprehend can find no
place in the code of morals of any per-
son but Cy Thompson and his pie e-eat-
ing and pie-hunting crew."
DR.. Thompson, it would seem, is un-
fortunate in his charges for he is soon
brought to book and exposed He has
not yet learned the virtue of discre-
ton. Charles Aycock has still some
