Last Thursday forenoon a freight

cars wrecked near Klron. One of the
middle cars left the track, carrying
with it the two following cars and ca,

when they upset and became detached
from the rest of the train. Over two
hundred ties were cut in two by the
loaded cars running over them. Two

A THOUGHT OF TOMORROW.

Tomorrow will be the holiday of holi-
days to old and young, rich and poor
alike. 1t may be said indeed that it is
the one holiday of all the year that is
celebrated in some way, however hum-
BILE, by nearly every member of the
English-speaking race. The day is com
mon bond and should be a commons bless
ing, day when the Fictitious distinc
tions wrought of time and circumstances
should yield to. recognition of mans
essential brotherhood, and when a kind
~ charity should smooth the wrinkles
from the lot of the worlds unfortunate.
May tomorrow bring to the young what
will be in all the after years, however
barren. OCCASION of the same sweet
memories that for so many millions of
the grown-up cling to Christmas day, and
TO the grown-up may it not be less nner-
ry than of old!

portion of each years tobacco CROP
was said How would this trade be
suppliedI"
Yes, foreign countries do take a
large proportion of our tobaccos. and this
plan would simplify the methods Of sup
plying that demand. We would only
sell to them for cash. and ship it as OF
dered. Another good feature of this
plan is that the production Of tobacco
can he absolutely controlled. For In
stance, we would have Il production
clause in each contract with the farmer.
so that if stagnation in business should
arise from over-production the crop
could be cut half in two and the price
doubled"
How could your plan be put in OPP
eration?'
"A call has been issued for conven-
tons to be held in every county in the
State of North Carolina, South Caro-,
lima, Virginia and Tennessee, where
bright tobacco is grown, on the first
Monday in January, 1900, for the pur-
pose of electing five delegates to attend
d general convention to be held in Raj
eigh on the 18th day of January, 1900,
looking to the adoption of some plan
along the lines above mentioned
IF this convention to be held on the
18th at Raleigh is sufficiently adver-
tised, as it should be, l look for the
largest industrial gathering ever held in
the South. An endorsement of my plan
by the convention viii be guarantee
of its success"

office lies in the 100000 negro votes,
are trying to excite the fears of the uR.
learned white men by retailing a pach
of as varegated and inconsistent lies as
are foolish enough to believe they can
win by welding the illiterate white man
and negro into Il compact mass of OPP
position. 1t was the illterate white
men who elected Vance to office and
who have helped to win every victory
for White Supremacy. In 1898 Pritch
ard Butler, Jim Young and the rest OF
the black and tan combination went
over the State appealing to the poor
white man and niger" to vote against
White Supremacy in order to save their
ballots. The unlettered white mep re
sented their being placed on the same
level with the negro. They resent it to-
day They see that in the Constitution
al Amendment their right to vote is pre-
served as sacredly as the right of the
richest or hest cdncafed man in the
State. The negro-loving gang cannot
fool them with the niger in the wood
pile"
The white men of this State Except
the ''mossy backs" and "pap-suckers')
have resolved to make White Supremacy
permanent. The white man who in his
youth was denied the advantages of an
education is as determined to secure
such supremacy as the best scholar III
the State, and in many instances more
so, for he saw the insolence of the
negro in 1889 and in 1858 when
the scholar was in his library pouring
over his books. The rich man can leave
North Carolina il we have a return
to the disgraceful rule that has pre-
vailed under Russell. 1t is the man OF
small means or of no property ar
all who must stay. He is de-
ternlined to permit no more occurrences
such as those that he voted against in
1898. The letter of Mr.. Todd, re-
counting some of the Candy methods,
will strengthen such determination.

CHURCH CONTRIBUTIONS.

We published & few days ago the fig
ures from the Biblical Recorder showing
the amounts contributed by the Metho-
disis and Baptists for Foreign Missions
during the present year. The Preshyte-
rian Standard says that the $4,000 Pres
byterians in the State pay $4,000 for
Foreign Missions or Is cents per capita
whereas the 100000 Baptists paid $10,-
673.67 or six cents per capita, and the
Methodists paid S21. Bill or fourteen
cents per capita. In the contributions to
Home Missions the Baptists pay much
more than the Methodists. We have no
figures showing how much the Presby-
terians contribute.
Moody said some years ago that when
he desired large sum of money fOr-any
great religious enterprise he knew that
the Presbyterians would give mere tnau
any other denomination and THAT often
they would give more than all the Gthecs
combined.
1t would be interesting if some one
would compile the reports from all tn
churches showing the amount North Car
DINA raised for all religious purposes
during the year 1899.

DR.. M'IvER'S LETTER.

We did not feel at liberty to decline to
print the letter of DIR. Ivie, criticising the
management of the Normal and Indus
trial College, which appeared in last Sun
days paper. We felt that DR.. Ivie did
injustice to good men whose grief in the
death of the lovely young ladies at that
institution is surpassed only by that of
their parents. When the first
news of the sickness at the Nor
NAL became known, we took the ground
that a thorough examination should be
made and all the facts made known
This the authorities have done and the
almost universal sentiment has been that
the management is entitled to lmdimin-
ished public confidence.
We publish today a letter from Presi-
dent Mc1ver answering DIR. Ivie's crit
dism. This letter was written for We'd
nesday's paper but our columns have
been so crowded that we could not give
place to it until today
There is no institution in North Caro-
lima that has had career so successful
and useful in so short a time. 1T is
deeply rooted in popular confidence. It's
management is entitled to fullest conf
dence. When it re-opens, it will be
thronged with students because the PEG
pie know that the institution will not be
re-opened until the conditions are such
that there will be no danger to its stu
dents

New York Times.
Among the letters published in the
last number of The New York Times
Saturday Review was one from the ven
cradle James ID. Porter, Ex-Governor of
Tennessee and ex-Assistant Secretary of
State under Mr.. Bayard-to mention
only two of our correspondents many
holds upon the memories of his country
men. The Ex-Governor told how he, too
had once made the same mistake that
Ambassador Choate did in a recent
speech, and ascnibed to the Bible the
familiar saying about the proximity of
cleanliness to godlineSs. He also told
how he was gently called to account
therefor by distinguished clergyman
but he did not express any opinion as
to whence the phrase originally came.
The problem is a difficult one. The form

when the sermon was published the
words appeared in quotation marks, and
where he got them has never been set

much knowing Bartlett reveals. it is re-
marked that Cleanliness of body was
ever deemed to proceed from a due rev

proposition is the reverse of close. The

ELECTION FRAUDS.

ELECTlUN FRAUDS.
There were never any suggestions Of
fraud in elections in North Carolina
s until the Republicans came into power
in 1868. Before that time Wings and
Democrats used every method to carry
elections and sometimes methods that
Were net the most approyed-but as the
votes went in the ballot boxes, they were
counted. 1t was in 1865, under the
Candy Returning Board, that the
votes were counted as pleased the new
gang then in power.
-
1t was when twelve thousand of the
D best white men in North Carolina were
disfranchised that the ballot was given
to every negro in the State and the
s'hands" came TO Raleigh to make laws
that resulted in putting the negro and
''caTpet-bagger' on top in North Caro-
lima. For thirty years the white people
Of the State have been forced to ignore
every other issue in order to preserve
the safety of their homes and the purity
of Anglo-Saxon civilization. Twice since
Vance destroyed negro and carpet-bag
rule in 1876, the white people have d.
vided-in 1894 and in 1S96-with the re-
suit of restoring the 1869 reign of
corruption, insecurity and all manner of
!. l.
grace to the State. In 1898 the white
people-(those who in 1894 voted for
what they thought was opposition to
Clevelandism and those in 1896 who
voted for the gold tandard)--hundreds Of
these misguided men resolved to save
their homes and preserve the good
name of the State by driving out the
gang that infested the legislative halls
CT the State and exalted the negro over
the white man. They succeeded and
then laid deep and broad the founda-
ton of a pure suffrage, based upon
character and intelligence. The victory
for White Supremacy i'll 1893 was al
is made permanent by eliminating the
horde of ignorant negro voters whose
votes have been used to the States I'M
doing. The victory OF 1898 has been
negatiyed in every possible way by Il

We publish today Il communication by
Hon. j. W. Todd, of Ashe county, re-
citing some methods employed by Candy
TO count out honestly elected members
OF the 1868 convention. 1t is instructive
reading. County lines were wiped out,
