STIRRED TO THE DEPTHS
DEMOCRATIC RALLY AT ROCKINGHAM A
HOT NUMBER.
Not Less than Three Thousand People Ago"
With Ardor Cheered Speakers Wildly
-.0Id Foes Led in Applause.

Rockingham, n. c., Aug. 31.-(Speciail
The Democratic rally here today was
not only a success, but far exceeded our
most sanguine expectations. Not less
than three thousand people running over
with enthusiasm cheered speakers Wld'
ly from beginning to end.
At least one third of the audience were
ladies, and by their presence and APP
plause they inspired the speakers to
flights of eloquence, seldom heard on
hustings.
Every allusion to white supremacy
brought forth sea of handkerchefs
from women accompanied by cheers
from men which made the
weIkin ring. The meeting was
presided over by Chairman Nor
rison, of the Executive committee. Col.
r. II. Bennett was the orator Of the day
MIR. ]. Il. Legrand introduced him. Col.
Benefits speech was powerfully eHec-
tive.
The great dinner was enjoyed by the
crowd. Such a gathering of white peo-
pie was never seen in Richmond county
before.
The meeting was opened with prayer
by Rev. Mr.. Coppedge. Then came
1.-The Old North State" sung by an
immense choir of ladies.
Richmond is stirred as never before.
The county candidates spoke. Hundreds
of former Republicans and Populists
were present, many of them leading III
the applause.

WHO TOLD THE LIE?

Henry Dockery, who eats more Prit-
chard-M Mark Hanna-McKinley pie than
any man in the State, barring about
half a dozen, has concluded that he must
do some barking at the News and OBJ
server, in order to earn his share of the
spoils, and it is reported that on Satur-
day last, at Carthage, he howled away
for an hour or so at this paper, declar-
inc among other things that this paper
had printed lie in saying that Jim
Young had inspected the white Blind
Institute.
Our cartoonist has drawn the big
fat Pee Dee pie eater in two scenes. In
one he is pronouncing the News and
Observers statement false; in the other
he is reading Jim Young's official re-
port, which was printed in Sundays
News and Observer. Meanwhile il a Ii,
has been told, the people of Carthage

THE TROPICS A SACRED TRUST.
What An English Public Has to Say
on the Subject.
benjamin Kidd in London Times.)

benjamin Kidd in London Times.)
1t is on a like principle that the de-
velopment of the tropical region occu-
pied must be held to be the fulfillment
of trust undertaken in the name of
civilization, a duty which allows the oc-
occupying country to surround her own
position therein with no laws or tariffs
operating in her own interests. and
which allows her to retain to herself no
exclusive advantage in the markets
which she has assisted in creating. In
the case of regions whose inhabitants
have made little progress toward the de-
veIOpment of any social organization of
their own, the government for the time
being must be prepared for duties and
responsibilities Of different kind to
those undertaken among ourselves for
not even under the protection of a civil
LIKED government can it be expected that
in such cases the natives will develop
the resources they have in charge under
the full-blown principles of our Western
individuaIsm. But in this, as in all
other matters, the one underlying prin-
ciplc of success in any future relation
ship to the tropics is to keep those who
administer the government which repre-
sents our civilization in direct and init
mate contact with the standards of
that civilization at its best; and to keep
the acts of the government itself within
the closest range of that influence, often
irkSOme, sometimes even misleading, but
always absolutely Yital-the continual
scrutiny of the public mind at home.
No deeper, no more enduring RESPONSE
bilty has ever been laid upon the Brit
ish peoples, upon the peoples of the
whole Englsh-spcaking world, than that
which presents itself in the situation
with which they are confronted, at the
end of the nineteenth century, i'll this
matter of our future relations to the
tropics. 70 the writer there seems to be
no room here for small-minded com
PARSONS between the different merits of
civilized races and peoples. The sub
ject goes far deeper than this There
are in reality only two policies before
the world. On the one side there is that
pursued by the Continental powers of
Western Europe. Reduced to its sim
plest terms, it represents the conception
of the relationship to be adopted to ter
ritories beyond sea which prevailed
throughout Europe more than hun
dred years ago ana BEFORE the secession
of the United States. On the other SIDE,
there is the policy, slowly and painfully
learned after century of larger eN-
perience-the policy which the standard
of the English-speaking peoples now
represent and of which the logical out
come is the holding of the tropics as a
trust for civilization Every square mile
of tropical territory which has been DC
cupied within the last few decades under
the first policy rather than under the
second has been in part lost to us as a
trust to civilization; it has passed
definitely backward into the shadow OF
another century.

The press that is trying to whip white
men into fusion with negroes Is fond of
saying IF the Democratic party was
really afraid of negro rule, etc." The
hand organs and their grinders are some
what wide of the mark. 1t Is not the,
Democratic party that is afraid of ne
gro rule. 1t is the white men, and es-
pecially the white women, of the State
who are afraid of it, and tired of it..
They have appealed to the Democratic
party to rid them of negro rule and the
party proposes to do SO. In the task
that the people of North Carolina has
set for it, and that an imperilled civil
cation has imposed upon 1t, the Demo
cratic party will have the help of the
more discerning element of all parties
1t is not the Democratic party that is
afraid. 1t is negro rule and the up
holders and apologists of negro rule who
are afraid. They have cause to be. The
censure of an outraged and scandalzed
people is not pleasant even to him who
has grown callous to the censure of an
outraged conscience.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
THE PRESIDENT RESPONSIBLE
From the New Orleans State.

From the New orleans State.
President Mckinley in making up
his Cabinet appointed Alger to the
office of Secretary of War, and it fol
lows that he must be held responsible
for the incOmpetency and stupid blum
dering of his appOintees, to whom he
seems bound by some strong political
obligation. Alger has been upheld in
spite of the demands of the people to
bounce him, and in face of the fact
that he is utterly incapable to fill the
office he holds. At the present time
the responsibility for the misconduct
of the war is being shifted from one
individual to another, until finally it
rests nowhere, and this game of shift
ing is being played in the hope that
it will satisfy the people that the adj
ministra ton is doing everything in its
power to fix the blame where it be-
longs, but the players will be disap-
pointed. The whole country has read
with shame and Indignation of the
neglect of the sick and the dying in the
camps of the volunteers; it has been
shocked by the announcement that
over 500 men have persisted of disease
mt one camp -Chickamauga-
nearly twice rs many as were killed at
santiago, and it will not rest content I'M
til there has been an accounting for thu
official crime which caused the death of
these brave fellows If the President
persist in standing by his Secretary of
War, he must prepare to fall with him.

VOTE CONsCIENTIOUSLY.

Newton Enterprise.
Evil days have surely fallen on North
Carolina when a man who has disgrace
ed one office, is placed in another of equal
Importance, and Il partisan press falls
with Infatuated abuse on the man who
furnishes proof of an officials unworthi-
ness. But as we said at the beginning.
we do not believe that the honest, sober
minded Populists will endorse the course
of their papers in this matter, and we
do not believe that they will feel bound
to remain i'll II party that feels called
upon to shield and whitewash a discred-
tied official. This John II. Smith is Il
Republican, and the appOintee of n Re
publican governor. On account Of the CO.
operation agreement between the leaders
of the two parties we see every Populist
paper in the State using every effort t.
cover up Smiths misdeeds, because they
are afraid the agreement would be brOk-
en- if they should not stand by Smith.
But the people who had no hand in this
agreement, and who are beginning to
see what the agreements in politics are
leading to in North Carolina are at liber-
ty to act as their consciences dictate.
And all that is necessary to Democratic
success this year, is that voters vote con
scientiously.

THE SECRETARY'S WAR NOTE.

Some newspapers and some people, are
endeayoring to force me out of the Cab
met: they cannot do it. They are en-
deavoring to besmirch my reputation
they cannot do it. If the opportunity
arises, l will fight back. If attacks are
made upon me by the press, of which
the law can take notice, / will send my
accusers to jail. / have already made
inquiries as to the possibility of punish
ing some of my traducers i'll New York
and if | can bring them to justice ]
will do so.-Secretary Alger.
Let the 100000 of his fellow coun-
trymen who have had the temerity not to
admire the composure of the bellicose
Secretary, while fever and starvation
were working havoc in pestilential camps,
trcmble in their tingling boots. The
Sccretary's reputation is to be defended
by an army of veteran bailiffs.
The marvel is what the press can
have said about the Secretary that a
competent court of justice would con
strue as Il traduction. He has been
charged with incompetency, to be sure
but only after the evidences of it were
overwhelming. He has not been accused
of violating contracts. An ungratclu
press has contented itself with showing
that he allowed others to do that with
impunity. Nobody has said that he
watered the 1000 gallons of milk he or
dered for the sick at Montauk and peck
eted the difference. No mikman who
valued his rights would have permitted
such an invasion of them. The Secretn-
ry did not make haste to throw himself
into the open arms of an investigation,
but only the vilely suspicious would dare
hint that he feared the outcome. IF,
says the Secretary deprecatingly, Il have
not done my duty as well as any one
else would, | am sorry that filled the
office of Secretary of War" There are
plenty of others who share the sorrow OF
the Secretary. Even in the armies there
are number who are not silent part
ners in this sentiment. There will be
an investigation, most probably, or. to
mission, ana the Secretary will be duly
coated. But there are some cold, ugly
facts to which whitewash will not adj
here. They are the real traducers of the
doughty Secretary. Meantime, for once.
Joseph Pulitzer can strike an attitude
and bid truth and the bailiffs come on.
