PRESIDENT ANDREWS ON THE OUTLOOK

The Winston Journal quotes Presi-
dent f. Benjamin Andrews, of Brown
University. as saying that the influences
evidently during the last campaign con
trary to the platform of the silver party,
would cease as it had in the State OF
Kentucky, and presaging the opinion
that the leading business men of the
country before the next campaign would
realize that the opinion as taken by that
party was the best for the country at
large.
The change in Kentucky has been
most marked, and there are reasons to
believe that there will be the same
more able men to lead the gold bolt
than any other State-Carlisle, Lindsey,
Buckner. Watterson, Breckenridge, aid
ed by the Courier-JOurnal, the only
widely circulated paper in the State.
With such powerfully hostile influences,
the kentucky Democrats without back
ing down an iota from the Chicago plat
form. have elected a Legislature with
sufficient majority to pass bills over
the veto of the Republican Goveror.
Many leading business men of the
country realize that the position taken
by the Chicago Convention is hest for
the country at large" Two cotton mill
owners, not >one hundred miles from
Raleigh, who voted for Mckinley in
1896. recently stated to friends that they
made a blunder. We know two able
and leading North Carolina lawyers who
have quit the Billbynum party in dis
gust The influences contrary are be-
coming converted.
The presence of President Andrews
before the young ladies of the State
Normal and Industrial school at Greens

tive North Carolina audience TO the

the possible exception of President FL

has accepted the invitation to deliver

Of his high type proves an inspiration
in a day when the narrowing effect Of

"WHAT ARE WE AT 2"

"Where are we at?" That is what a
prominent lawyer, attending court at
Whiteyille, writes in giving the facts
with reference to the negro juror who
made spectacle of himself because he
was not allowed to eat at the table
with white Jurors. The answer is easy.
North Carolina is the only State or cOun-
try in the civilized world that has Il
white majority, where the negroes are
in control.
With negro pOstmasters giving out
mail TO white ladies, negro magistrates
sitting in judgment upon disputes be-
tween white men, negro school commit
teemen who employ or discharge white
lady teachers. negro constables who ar
rest white men charged with violating
law, negro bosses in control of State in
Stitutions, and white fellows in office
who do the bidding of their negro con-
stituonts-w these things prevailing i'll
North Carolina it is not difficult to see
that we have descended to the lowest
scale of government that ever cursed n
State since Reconstruction.
1t is easy to change to the good and
just government that was inaugurated
by Vance. 1t only requires that the
white men of the State vote together.
They will do this when they refuse to
he led by the nose by set of second
class politicians who use their votes to
get themselves an office which they gen
orally are incompetent to fill.
White men of North Carolina! Get
together and stay together. Settle your
differences among your own race and
give merited condemnation to those
sorry fellows who elevate the negro over
their race for personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

John Gilmore played a full hand at
Morris Haskel's store on Main street
last night, and came near taking the
whole pot. Early in the night he en-
tered the store and with a business air
began the purchase of lot of goods,
The first article selected was a good
big valise. In this other and sundry ar
ticles were carefully packed as they were
purchased. A suit of clothes, shirts,
socks, handkerchiefs, two pistols, Il ra-
zOr. soaps, perfumery and other things
went to make up his bill of goods. He
traded very delibertely and jewed the
merchant to the lowest cent. This work
took some time and when the valise was
full it was 10 o'clock or after. He still
loitered about as if looking for some
thing else. Finally when Mr.. Haskell
had turned away for some purpose he
gathered the yalise and shot out of the
slant yelling at the top of his voice,
and for a few minutes the fun was live
~.
Gilmore held on to the valise and ran
for dear life. He was picked mp and
turned over to the police. This morning
the Mayor bound him over to court in Il
bond of $50 which he failed to give,
and is now in Jail. He is young ne
gro, apparently IS or 20 years old, and
does not have the appearance of being
the slick duck that he is. He says
he made his escape recently from the
road gang in Guilford county and has
been here only few days.

over in Newborn on his way home. We

from that point here. 1t is enough to
make the blood boil in any American
citizen to hear his story. He says that
the ship was blown up by the Spaniards,
and further states that the men of the
ship were sent home without being paid
off. He borrowed money from ship
mate to get home with, but says of
course he will get his money, but he
needed it when he started home.
He says that the SpaniardS in Cuba
gl0ated over the loss of the Maine and
said that if we sent any more ships
there they would share the fate of the

soon as he gets well.

WASHINGTON, April 13.--Following is
the preamble and resolutions presented to
the House to-day by the Republican men,
bers of the foreign affairs committee and
afterwards passed:
whereas, The government of Spain for
three years past has been waging war on
the Island Of Cuba against revolution by
the inhabitants thereof, without making any
substantial progress towards the suppress
sion of said revolution, and has conducted
the warfare in a manner contrary to the
laws of nations by methods inhuman un-
civilized, causing the death by starvation
of more than two hundred thousand inno-
cent noncombatants, the victims being for
the most part helpless women and children.
infiicting intolerable injury to the CONNER
cial interests of the United States, involv-
ing the destruction of the lives and property
OF many of our citizens. entailing the ex-
penditure of millions of money in patrolling
our coasts and policing the high seas in
order to maintain our neutrality; and,
Whereas, This long series of losses, in
Suries and burdens for which Spain is re-
sponsible, has eliminated in the destruction
of the United States battle ship Maine in
the harbor of Havana and in the death of
g66 of our seamen: therefore,
Resolved, That the President Is hereby
authorized and directed to intervene at once
to stop the war in Cuba, to the end, and
with the purpose of securing permanent
peace and order there and establishing, by
the free action of the people there stable
and independent government of their own
in the Island of Cuba; and the President is
authorized and empowered to use the land
and naval forces of the United States to
execute the purpose of this resolution"
The report accompanying the resolutions
was very brief. After citing the various
resolutions that were before it, it says the
present one is reported as substitute for
them, recommending its adoption and call
ing attention to the Presidents last message
and the Maine inquiry report in its support.
