One by one the theories OF the
free -silverites fall to the ground.
They are now compelled to aban-
don those beautiful tables with
which they "proved to the farmers
in 1894 and 1896 that wheat and
silver kept apace. Twenty months
ago. when Mr.. Bryan was nomi-
mated and the wheat and silver
theory was given a new lease oi
life, an ounce of silver was worth
considerably more than bushel Of
wheat, being in the New York mar
kets practically 69 cents per ounce,
while wheat was 6s cents per bush
ell. But what change! To-day two
ounces OF silver will scarcely buy
one bushel of wheat, the white
metal having fallen to within a
fraction Of IS cents per ounce,
while wheat is far above the dollar
mark, the price III New York rang

The constitution OF the state of
Colorado expressly provides that
the waters originating in the state
belong to the state. Under this
provision users in Colorado can
claim priority OF right in the use
OF waters having their source with
in the borders Of the state. The
courts have frequently been APP
pealed to for definition OF the
provision, and in every case the
opinion has been in favor OF the
users in the state where the stream
originates. 1t is an unassailable
law OF the land. and anybody, the

The Sin of Worrying.

Washington Star.
1t is care that kills. One who de
liberately cultivates d disposition to
throw care to the winds soon be
comes an Indispensable person to his
friends Care is worry, pure and
simple. The burden that causes us
to worry is heavy enough to bear in
all probability, without adding to it
That of all -engrossing care, which
never let's the mind rest for an in
slant. Suppose you edo have
troubles of your own" Can you
cure them by worrying? Ones best
best IF )rt to overcome the trials and
trihulations of this life is all that is
demanded. If that effort surmounts
the difficulties, well and good. II it
fails, the fret that wears wrinkles in
ones soul, the worry that makes us
hated by our friends, the care that
wears deep burrows on the brow do
not he lp one out of the slough OF
despOnd, but rather bury us the
deeper. The world gets very tired OF
men and women who placard their
woes on their faces and moan it in
their voices in hourly conversation
But the world dearly loves those
people who are merry and compan-
ionatle, even when grief is gnawing
deep. We owe something to society,
to the world of people about US, and
have no right to make ourselves
public nuisanees b. cause the clouds
obscure our sun.

The interest that is being mani

cratic party in the State, and the
earnestness, which characterized the
proceedings of the Demo ratio
Executive Committee which met in
Raleigh Tuesday, foretells victory
for the white people in the next State
election. The white manhood of our
State are determined that the miser
able crowd that now controls the
politics of North Carolina shall be
defeated and forever retired to "the
shades Of private life"
The committee decided TO call the
convention on Thursday, May Goth.
The committee, by resolution, among
other things endorsed the patriotic
address of the National Chairman,
James K. Jones, seeking to unite the
silver forces in the impending Con-
gressional contests"
The Wilmington Messenger in this
connection says:
THE opinion is almost universal
AMONG North Carolina Democrats
that the Democratic party must
have no offensive and defensive ALI
ances, but make a square, open, hot
fight against all enemies of the State
in whatever combinations they ap
pear, inviting all friends of good
government to unite with them in
saving North Carolina from injury
and in restoring to power the people
who love the State and would have
it to prosper. All true and patriotic
North Carolinians should unite
against the vandals. The most dis
gushing, disgraceful pages of this
country are those that record the
results of the combine in the last
three or four years of legislation in
this State. Let the honesty and in
telligence of the State get together
to put an end to such depravity and
prostitution of power-such wrong
doing and corruption among
officials"

INCONSISTENT BUTLER.

Senator Butler wrote long letter,
which was published in last Sundays
issue of the New York Journal, in
regard to trusts and their baneful
influence upon the affairs of the
country.
Mr.. Butler is extremely hard upon
the various combinations, and
handles them in detail with gloves
off. The S-nator is sure that the
trusts and combinations as they
exist now are the primary cause of
all our financial and political
troubles. Senator Butler is not far
wrong il his estimate of the influence
for bad that is going out from all the
heartless and soulless combinations
that are doing business in our coun-
try.
But, how can the Senator reconcile
himself to his position, when in his
own State he is hand in hand with
the very crowd that are with the
u u nc II OtAi as q
I pertinently remarked to the writer
today, "Butler is at the head OF the
most detestable trust that exists
today" He is at the head of the
great combination fusion movement,
having for it's purpose the crushing
out of political existence the good
honest white men of North Carolina.
In this the Senator has made a
partial success SO far, but as a
manipulation of such trusts his days
are numbered.
The sensible white men of North
Carolina have found out that a man
who breaches one doctrine and prac-
tices another is not the Moses they
want to lead them out of the wilder
ness of hard times into s'the land OF
promise"
II Senator Butler wants to break
up the trusts let him join hands with
the party that is fighting them with
all their power, the great Democratic
party.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
A Statement Made by Ex-President
Harrison Criticised
Editors Sentinel.

Editors Sentinel.
At the celebration of the birthday
of Lincoln by the Marquette Club, Of
Chicago, on the 18th inst. ex Presi-
dent Benjamin Harrison was orator
of the day. During his grafton he
said: "To the South and to not a
few in the Northern States he was an
uncouth jester, an ambitious up
start. reckless disturber. He was
hated at the South not only for his
principles but for himself"
This statement would not merit
comment had it fallen from the lips
of some hot-headed, narrow-minded
Yankee, whose browning ambition is
to see his name in print. But to he
enunciated by one who has been at
the head of our government, and
| who should and is expected ito act
and speak only for the good of his
whole country, is either direct ex-
position of a strong sectional feeling
at the North, or prejudiced mind of
one of it's acknowledged leaders.
Granting the statement to be true,
though only in part it is, is it COM
mendable in any citizen, public or
slowly extinguishing fire of sectional
animosity, which prevailed three
decades ago?
lis true the South differed from him
in principles, because he differed from
the fundamental laws of our land.
But cid the South hate Lincoln him
self, as the tx President says? Fully
aware of the fact that everyone has
his own foibles, the Southern people
ignored these when speaking from a
standpoint of personal integrity, for
the highly cultured manly qualities,
patriotic devotion and conscientious
dictatorship SO characteristic of him.
Northern historians CD would have
us believe that the South rejoiced at
Lincoln's tragic death, and some
even go so far as to declare that the
Confederate government was an
accomplice to the crime. And while
every such accusation Is refuted as
fast as uttered, it serves as a promi-
nent factor in keeping ablaze the
fame of sectional enmity, formerly
existing between the two sections.
During the great civil strife in
which Lincoln figured SO prominent
ly, the seeding states sustained a
loss of more than one-half of their
assessed property, still this loss was
as great as that occasioned by his
death. The South furnished more
| mourners over Lincoln's bier than
the North.
While Lincoln and Davis disagreed
| regarding the paramount issues of
their day, no American citizen,
North or South. who regards brav-
cry, patriotism and personal in
tegrity as commendable virtues, can
look upon either of the noble leaders
without sublime reverence for each of
them, for
''The brave will honor the brave,
Victor or vanquished he be-"
