then he became confused and said he did
vote for him but was sorry he did So
Oh. r. Bulla interrupted him saying if
you are not for free silver you ought to
walk out of the convention, to which
White made no reply.)
Il. L. Bulla, of Back Greek township,
here made a speech and closed by saying
that he voted the Rep-pOp-fusion ticket
two years ago and was ashamed of it.
Il. w. Brown, of Pleasant Grove town
ship. said Dr. Winslow and Mr. White
had expressed his sentiments; that he had
talked with the Populists of his township,
and they were sentiments of all of them.
He said compare our primaries this fall
with years past and you will see how we
have gone back by cooperation. Men say
they will not cooperate.
"Mr. Wright's time came now and he
said Mr. English had the wrong SOW by
the ear when he accused him of not
voting the Populist ticket two years ago.
I voted for the ticket and the Republi-
cans bought them at Raleigh two years
ago i'm the contest for United States Sena-
tor (Ir. Wright pointing his finger at Mr..
White as he said it, | am willing to
abide by the invention if honesty pre-
walls. There is not one thing in the
Republican party which | endorse"
What business a man has to call him
self a Populist who entertains sen
timents which Mr.. White proclaims
it is for every man to judge.
We but print facts. 1t is such men
as White who control the Populist CON
ventions where fusion with the Repubi-
cans is adopted. The old time Populists,
who gave the party power, are at home,
and on election day they will ''do a
plenty" to the goldbugs who have sold
their party out to the Republicans for Il
mess of pottage.

WHY SILVER MEN MUST FAVOR WHITE
SUPREMACY.

The men who want good and clean
government in North Carolina, no matter
what their views are upon national ques-
tons. have a deep personal interest in
the success of the party that stands
for White Supremacy. The negroes, as
Governor Russell truly said, NEARLY al
ways go with the rascals' and it is for
that reason that their solid vote is a
menace to good government. Every white
man, who loves his State and believes
in the Anglo-Saxon race, ought to stand
by his fellow white men in the impend-
ing struggle.
There is another reason that ought
to impel all men who favor free coinage
to stand for white supremacy in North
Carolina. If Fusion wins this year it
will greatly strengthen the Republican
machine which will be creased to carry
the State for Mckinley in 1900. The
silver men have a clean majority of more
than 100000 of the white vote of the
State, and under no combination of cir
cumstances could Mckinley have a ghost
of show of carrying the State unless,
as in 1896, at least 10000 fraudulent
negro votes were added to the big legal
negro vote and counted for the Repub-
lican ticket. 1t is to the interest of
every silver man to put in control of
affairs white men who will put an end to
negro elevation and the control of the
election machinery by corrupt politicians
who, in order to get themselves elected
to local offices by negro votes, dishonest
ly put unqualified voters on the registra-
ton books. In 1896, in one county,
Re-pop-lican candidate for a county of
fee, exerted himself to put negroes I'M
der age and imported negroes on the
tiyity in increasing the fraudulent negro
vote lost Bryan and silver more than
100 votes in one county.
The Republicans are pledged to put
the present election law in the c0nstitu-
ton. The Populists demand a change il
the election law. If the Republicans
win this year they will steal the vote
for Mckinley in 1900 if they can as
they stole 10000 votes from Bryan in
1896.
The silver man, no matter what his
party, who strengthens the Republican
machine this year, is lending himself moi
only to keep negro rule on us in North
Carolina but also to saddle the gold
standard, Hannaism and five cent cotton
on the country. A vote for the fusion
ticket is a vote to perpetuate present
conditions in national politics, and the
silver man that does it is stabbing the
cause he favors.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
DEMOCRACY FOR THE MASSES.
Statesville Mascot.

DEMOCRACY FOR THE MASSES.
Statesville Mascot.
Our great State contemporary, the
News and Observer, goes on to show
that the Democratic party through in
terest and inclination is utterly opposed
to the disfranchisement of any citizen be-
cause of his ignorance or poverty, that
it was the Democratic party which did
away with the property qualification for
voting for State Senators before the war,
and that it is upon the honest white men
who are poor in this worlds goods that
the Democratic party most relies for the
votes to again redeem North Carolina
from the condition into which she has
fallen. No Legislature, no matter which
party elects it, will ever dare to deprive
North CarOlinians Of their votes be-
cause of their illiteracy or poverty. The
Democratic party will be FOUND in the
foremost Of the fight against any such
proposed legislation. 1t is fighting now
under the leadership Of Bryan and the
Chicago platform for the material inter-
ests of the common masses, and it will
be late in the day before it ever con-
sents to see the poorer or more illiterate
of the common people robbed of the
ballot, their last hope of securing relief
from the injustice of decades of class
legislation. No man will be deprived of
his vote by the Democratic party and
none know this better than the Republi-
cans. When the Democrats again con
troll the Legislature a law will be passed
which will free the Eastern counties
from negro rule, and to prevent this
is why the Republicans are raising this
false cry.

THEN AND NOW. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A
TAX EATER AND A TAXPAYER.

In his speech at Pittsboro, trying to
hold the Populists to fusion with the
party of the black man and the yellow
metal, DIR. Thompson made three utter
ances which illustrate his political morals
We quote:
"We must cooperate with the Repub-
leans as n matter of necessity, not be-
cause we want to but because we need
their help and we could not get along
without them and they could not get
along without us.
I'VE must cooperate with GOLD bugs
and monopolists now in order to retain
our organization in 1900, and then we
will nominate w. J. Bryan for President
ahead of the Democrats"
He also said that ''the Populist party
has been as true to its convictions as
circumstances would permit"
In 1892 this same speaker proclaimed
that he was forced to leave the Demo
cratic party because it had nominated
Cleveland and denounced as traitor to
silver all who supported Cleveland or
any other goldbug.
THEN Cyrus Thompson had no office
and was private citizen Of OnsloW
county. Then he demanded devotion to
convictions and did not speak like Il ira
der about "as true to convictions as cir
cumstances would permit" That Is tile
language Of a private citizen wanting
reform. NOW that Cyrus Thompson is
advising and urging fusion with gold
bugs and monopolists," he is a public
officer and draws a salary of more than
$4,000 a year-or $1S.97 for each work
ing day. 1t takes almost Il bale of cot
ton every day to pay Thompson's salary,
and he can afford to talk about being
as true to convictions as circumstances
would permit" A man with Il salary
of bale of cotton a day can talk glibIy
about cooperating with gOlI-bugs and
monopolists," but the man who is raising
five cent cotton wants to fight the gold
bugs and monopUilsis who are largely
responsible for the low price of agricul-
tursl products, and not Cooperate
with them. lie knows that il he CO.
operates with gold hugs it will be TO
the undoing of the masses, though it
may give Cyrus Thompson a bale of cot
tor; every dag. !nc cotton raisers wcnld
refer free silver end eight cent cot
ton to Cyrus Thompson iii office and
five cent cotton, strange as Cyrus
nay deem lii S choice.

HERE'S BOSS RULE FOR you.

The Hickory Press tells us that A. Il
Holton, chairman Of the Republican,
State Executive committee, presided
over the Republican county convention
of Catawba county, and said this was
the first time he ever presided over a
county convention and felt honored.' .
The spectacle of the Boss presiding over
a county convention in which he does not
live, is something new in this boss-ridden
commonwealth.

night, not only in the spccialties, whose
weakness stopped the advance, but In
the standard stocks and those which
had led the advance as well.
At the opening the bull contingent
had to face a series OF declines for
Americans In London; but the tendency
OF the London market after Its opening
was upward and the declines there were
ignored, prices here opening higher all
along the line. There was n fair volume
OF orders to buy which had come to
commission houses over night as a re-
suit Of the strength displayed yesterday,
and there was no selling for London ac-
count to amount to anything. The carly
advance was continued with vigor and
confidence. led by Peoples Gas and
Rock Island, which gained about III per
cont each. Tho granEers all showed
strength but Rock Island, which crossed
Burlington temporarily yesterday and
ruled above the latter stock all day to-
day. The unsettled tone OF Tobacco and
the large volume OF transactions init
give the first check TO the advance.

A FINE RECORD.

There was a man in our office last
week 90 years old who owns $1,000
worth Of property and who stated that
he had altogether in all his life never
lost as much as $40 from bad debts
and all other except $40 that
he once lost out of his pockets. He is
man, too, that has handled consid-
cradle money in business transactions.
He has been married twice, and says
the first time he was married he didn't
have thing on his body that belonged
ty him except his shoes-all his cloth
ing was borrowed.-Page Courier
