THE TRUTH OUT AT LAST.

The New York Herald and the Balu-
more Sun both announce through their
Washington correspondence that the NC
Kinley administration IS now in favor Oh
territorial expansion. The Sun says that
during his western tour the President
was encouraged by the "feeleTs" that
he threw out to the people, and that he
is sustained by the most Influential OF
the party leaders.
Under all the circumstances adis
the correspondent, mo reasonable doubt
can rest in tho mind Of any one that the
President has determined TO give tho
weight OF his influence 10 the adoption OF
A far-reaching colonial policy.
This does not come TO us IN the nature
Of a surprise or a revelation. From the
first we saw, ami said so. that the Re-
publican leaders we're bent on a policy
OF Imperialism, and we have had no
doubt that the party would eventually
commit itself TO such a measure. I'm
perialism is In entire keeping with Re-
publican doctrine. The party believes in
q strong government and a large stand
ing army, a powerful navy and colonial
possessions viii help to build up nation
alism-the Republicans ideal And then
These Islands Will be prolific Of "plun
trees" and the favors that shall fall
when the trees are shaken will be for
the "heeling' OF the politicians. With
such patronage and with large forces on
sea and land to back it up, the party in
power would be invincible. and the re-
public would be only in namo.
W'n Democrats take warning? VIII
they holi on to free sllver-and other
hercsies OF tho Chicago platform and so
give the Republicans an opportunity to
carry out this policy. or will they ADOPT
an old-time Democratic platform and
raise the old-timo Democratic banner
around which all Democrats can rally
with enthusiasm?
II the party is determined to follow
the lead Of "Coin" Harvey, Mckinley
and Imperialism are bound to win. The
conservative men of the country are less
afrais Of imperialism. than they are Of
free silverism as represented by Till
mans New Democracy"

WHAT NEGRO RULE is.

Governor Russell, Of North Carolir a,
quotes figures 10 show that there is no
danger Of negro domination in that State.
lie says that the whites are ia the ma
jority almost everywhere and that in the
state at large there are seventy white
voters 20 thirty negro voters.
That is an artful dodge. Nobody IL
afraid OF the negro vote per Sc, and
what is meant b. negro rule is tie rule
Of the party that Is composed of negroes
and mean white men. a white man who
holds his Office by virtue of the negro
vote IS usually more objectionable in
Office than a negro and North Carolina
has been cursed time and again with such
officials.
The negro vote IS not dangerous. If
left alone. ii Is only when led by white
men that the negroes as an organization
become otstreperous and offensive. AS
things have been IN North Carolina for
the past several years. the negro has
held the balance Of power and he has
dictated terms to the fusionists. Alone
the negroes could accomplish nothing.
but in league with the Populists and
white Republicans. they were able 10
carry the state and - is notorious fact
that they are always most troublesome
and insolent when the party with which
they are identified Is in power.
Fusion rule ia North Carolina IL negro
rule ard Governor Russell cannot smoth-
or the fact with figures.
