DEADLY RACE RIOTS
Trouble in Wilmington, N. c., in
Which Nine Negroes Are Killed.
Three white Men Are Wounded, One
SerIousIy-The Trouble begins by
WreckIng of the onice of
the Negro Press.

Wilmington, n. c., Nov. 11.-After a
day Of bloodshed and turbulence Will
mington has subsidized into comparative
peacefulness. Nine negroes were
killed and three white men wounded
during the day, one of them, William
Mayo, seriously. The city is in the
hands of a new municipal government
and law and order is being established.
Cause of the Trouble.
The trouble in Wilmington com
menced at $3.50 Thursday morning,
when an armed body of men, mum
bering about 400 and led by ex-Repre-
sentative Waddell, chairman of a com
mittee of IS appointed for the purpose
proceeded to the publishing house of q
negro newspaper, the Record, to wreck
it. The editor of this paper had pub
lished an article defamatory of white
women. and a mass meeting of citizens
on Wednesday ordered his expulsion
from the city within "a hours and the
removal of his press. Fifteen leading
negroes were called on by the commit
tee of 25 Wednesday night and directed
TO notify the chairman by 1880 Thurs
day morning whether they would agree
10 the removal of the press. They were
informed that if no answer was re.
turned the press would be demolished
No answer was received by the chair
man Thursday morning, and after
waiting an hour the citizens proceeded
in body and demolished the fixtures
of the printing office.
Panic Among Negroes.
The burning of the printing office
created a great commotion among the
regroes of the town. The rumor spread
that the whites were going to burn and
murder in the negro quarter. This
rumor reached the negro employees of a
cotton compress numbering 300 or 400
who quit work and hung about the
streets in manifest terror. Other par
ties congregated in the negro section
and it was in one of these that the
first tragedy was enacted. The men
were standing on a corner and were
ordered to dispense. They declined
and, it is claimed, fired into the whites

not if the old veterans come as fast as
they did during the past six months
In speaking to Governor Lee about the
rapidly filing Home he said it made
no difference, the veterans must and
shall be cared for think this is the
universal sentiment of our people, and
I am confident he will succeed 1t is not
a question Of dollars or another public
institution. but it is q question OF
whether the government will allow
these veterans to suffer on or provide a
home where they can get cured
'.Just say to The Press readers and
the people at large that 1 will be happy
to ha all visit our Home who can, the
grandest institution in the state, and
will introduce them to the happiest
and most contented lot of veterans in
the United States
"a united effort is being made to So
cure the establishment of a national
branch home or sanitarium at Hot
Springs. Ihave had many applications
from men in many states who want to
JON our Home so that they can be cured
Of rheumatism. OF course none but
residents of this state can be admitted
to our Home Thousands of veterans
are suffering all over the country and
many in every home. Yet there can be
no relief for these unless the govern.
ment will provide a home at Hot
Springs where certain relief from rheu
matism is possible Senator PettigreW
is making grand effort in this direc
ton"
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1898-01-21

Inc whole or the Ohio contest, the
gross expenditure of money, the rumort
of bribery that put taint on Mr.
Hanna's title to seat in the Senate
the disgracefnl scenes enacted in Co
lnmbus, irresistibly point to the pro
priety of electing senator's by direct
vote Of the beople. Such direct election
wonld diminish the chances for mani
pulation and corruption in the choice
of senators, it would do away with the
possibility of dead locks in the
choice of senators which have
for long times and in several
instances of late years left a
state with only one senator. When
there are only two parties represented
in legislature the possibilities of a
deadlock over the election of senator
are remote, but when there are three
parties represented in q legislature and
no one with majority the chances Of
a deadlock are infinite. Direct election
of senators by popular vote would Ger
tainly do away with the danger Of
deadlock.
Besides, the election of senators by
the people would make senators directly
accountable to the people for their acts,
and quite naturally increase their re-
gard for the interests of the general
public. In short, it would put senators
into touch with the people. it would
diminish the influence of money, the
weight of the cliques in directing the
choice of senator's So senators owing
less to such cliques, not dependent to 80
great degree on such cliques for cleo
tion and more dependent upon the peo-
pie, would become more subservient to
the will of the people, less subservient
to the will of the cliques, would become
more and more the representatives of
the pubic, less and less representatives
of the cliques At least this is what one
would suppose would follow upon max
ing our senators directly elective by our
people, and this is what should happen
But in candor it must be admitted
that the House of Representatives elect
ed directly by the people is as subserv-
ent to the will of the cliques, as ready
to do their bidding, as is the Senate, per
perhaps even more so. In short, many
members of the House of Representa-
tives are representatives of the cliques,
of the moneyed oligarchy, rather than
the people. The trouble is that the
cliques often control the nominating
conventions and dictate nominations.
They so control and SO dictate because
the masses of our people take too lite
interest in our primary elections, shun
their duty as citizens in this regard.
Our people do not attend the primaries
with the unanimity that they should
and they reap the consequences, the
consequences of permitting others to
select party candidates so that when
they come to vote the choice often lies
between two evils. If our people
would not be misgoverned they must
govern themselves and they cannot
govern themselves without attending
the paimary elections = The American.

would not be reputation, would not
deprive creditors of anything that they
are of right entitled to, for it would be
repayment in dollars of as great purch
asing power as dollars had when such
debts were made. But payment of
debts in dollars worth fifty cents in
gold is not proposed by bimetallists
The majority firmly believe that the
reopening of our mints to free silver
coinage would so increase the demands
for silver and decrease the demands for
gold as to restore the parity between
gold and silver, and those who question
this are convinced that such action on
our part would drive Englapd to join
US in restoring that parity. for England
could not stand a premium on gold in
the United States that would put our
people in touch with silver using peo-
pies while leaving the British producers
out
OF course, the result would be de-
crease in the value Of the gold dollar,
decrease in it's purchasing pow r, q
general rise of prices And it is true
that such rise in prices would make
debts easier to pay, would cut down
the command of creditors over the labor
and the products of others labor. Such
rise in prices would merely lift the
weight of interest charges that now lie
as a deadening weight upon enterprise,
q weight made grievous and unbearable
by the fall in prices caused by demone-
tizing silver So to remonetize silver
and lift prices that have been unduly
and iujuriously and dishonesty de-
pressed by demonetization W uld. not

pudiation neither in law nor in spirit
To sssail Mr.. Bryan as repudiator

warrant; to hurl such epithets at him
