SOMETHING TO BE THANKFUL
FOR

In a recent issue the ylcksburg Oiss)
Herald said:
THAT such men as Altgeld, Russell
Of North Carolina, and Leedy Of Kan
sas. can rise 20 places OF high response
bility goes far toward reconciling States
rights conservatives with the growth and
extension Of the Federal power. The
United states Courts form The only check
upon the Socialistic demagogues who
would aid corporate interests and, array
society into antagonistic classes"
TO which the Charlotte (N. c. OBJ
server replied
"Ths is a humiliating confession 70
come from States rights Democrats, but
it is one which has 70 be made. II has
come to this. here in North Carolina, that
that much-denounced Judge Simonton.
OF the United states Circuit Court-a
Democrat. a man Of ability, for years the
leader Of the Charleston bar, a gentleman
OF unblemished character-is about the
only breakwater that protects property
rights in North Carolina.
1t has not come TO that pass in Virginia,
God be praised. There is n Populistic
sentiment i'm the old Dominion, to be
sure. and it went far when the last
Legislature was IN session as 10 attempt
by statute TO cripple the courts of the land
and 10 deny TO the people the great. con-
stitutional privilege Of injunction. the
only quick and sure safeguard against
certain forms Of lawlessness. But the
very first judge who got a whack at that
statute tore it 10 pieces, and We have
no doubt that he will be sustained by
the highest court I'm the land. Thank
God for honest. fearless, brainy jurists
like Judge white. And there are many
such in the state Of Virginia.

Chairman Butler through his personal

A YELLOW JOURNALS APPEAL.

Quite naturally the New York Journal
lifts up its voice and rejoices that there
is TO be war and declares that IN the
stand in which the American people have
take they can confidently challenge the
Judgment Of the civilized world. And in
another article the Journal calls upon ;he
people Of the United States to stand by
the President.
Yet it is only few days ago that this
same newspaper charged that the Presi-
dent Of the United States was in league
with the stock jobbers OF Wall street.
and that his conduct OF this great Ques-
ton had been with a view TO the interest
of the money power rather than in the
interest of humanity and for the honor
of the nation.
II the Journal was to be believed vi en-
1t made these charges against the Frcsi-
Judge this question from the standpoint
of the New York journal, how san they
believe that our motives are the highest.
that the war is to be wagel on Spain in
the name Of humanity? And If the Jour
nal was to be credited at hon =, how can
1t now have the effrontery to appeal to
the American people TO s,ald by such
President.
Having done all that It could do to
bring on war and to discredit the Admiu-
istration. it now rejOices that war has
come, and urges the people to rally &c the
support of a man. who. according to the
journal. has been acting throughout this
whole affair from the basest and most
despicable motives.
That is yellow Journalism aui that
sort of journalism is largely responsible
for the war.
