majority the national delegates to the

clared that the w. G. T. U. was under
no moral obligation to redeem the Will

their efforts to raise money with which

who think religious organization is
bound to pay the debts contracted in its

WHITE MAN NEARLY AS GOOD AS NEGROES

An Eastern Republican politician, who
is Superior Court Judge by the grace
of Republican and Populist fusion, was
wont to say years ago that "a white
man is as good as a negro. if he behaved
himself" That was under Democratic
rule.
Under Republican rule, the negro is
the supreme dictator of North Carolina,
and it is a disgrace to the intelligence
and patriotism of the white voters of
the State. They hold positions of hon
est over white men and white teachers
of white schools are subject to their
orders in many counties. What will be
the end? This weeks Wadesboro Mes
scnger and Intelligencer says:
''In talking, few days ago, with
prominent gentleman of Rockingham
of the indignities that are being put
upon the white people of Richmond
county by the white Republicans
who are in power there, we were
informed by him that recently he
was dunned. on the streets of ROCK
ingham, for his taxes by Il negro.
Next thing we Know cuffic, back
ed by his office bought allies, will
demand admittance into our homes
on u footing of social equality. We
have heard more than one Rich
mond county white man boast of
having voted for negroes for office,
and Il man who is low enough TO do
that is low enough to do anything"
Must we go lower still before the
white people will come together and put
the State in the hands of the whites:
Or are the negroes and their base allies
to be given further power to humiliatc
and disgrace the State?

THE RICE CROP.

Planting Begins Next Week.
Wilmington Dispatch.)

Wilmington Dispatch.)
The area Of rice to be planted this sea-
son will be greatly increased over that
of last season. The successful season
of last year and the protection afforded
by the Dingley bill are the principal rea-
sons for this increase.
While the crop last year was not a
large one, the area planted being small
the yield was fair, the quality good and
the price satisfactory. This, together
with the increased protection afforded
by the Dingley bill, has tended to put the
planters in good spirits. Another good
thing which has come their way is the
mild, dry winter. The planters all de-
clare it to- have been the best winter
season for preparing lands for the crop
that has been known in years The
lands have been we'll plowcd, fertilized
and narrowed, and are now ready for
the planting of this year.
The favorable weather gave the plan
ters the opportunity which they desired,
in view of all the circumstances. Of eX-
tending their acreage. The planters have
had so many unsatisfactory experiences
in previous years that even the fact of
Il high tariff does not incline them to
enter upon extensive operations. Lou-
iSiana, which is now the chief rice pro
ducing State, is said to he preparing for
very large increase in acreage, ana
it is feared that a large crop there will

UOv. CIRCUITS rlessage

is a thorough, tasty and inter
esting recital of what has been
done i'll respect to the main mat
tiers incidental to the legislative
and executive departments of the
state government during his term

given careful and earnest atten-

the institutions of the state,
educational, punitive, reforma-
tory and hygienic. His immedi.
ate predecessors did work that
was difficult to excel but Gov.
Grout is evidently well up to the
idea of the people that those in
Stitutions should have from the
governor an intelligent and prac-
teal and, as far as practicable, a
personal superintendent such as
the general manager ola railroad
bestows in a general way by
systems that regulate as far as
possible the working and details
of the whole enterprise. There
is no work or enterprise so ex-
tensive that it does not require
the impulses given to it by per-
sonality, and none that does not
go into confusion, want and de-
cay in proportion as the personal
interest by the men in charge of
them wanes.
Ofcourse there are some po-
sitions taken in the message in
reference to existing laws which
are not in harmony with the ideas
of all the people, but a statement
in a message concerning them
is timely and we'll because if not
