II is strange what great confidence the
appearance of Mark Hanna in Ohio has
given the Republican managers, of success

CURRENT COMMENT,

The New Orleans Picayune Dem0 saws:
''Thc middle Of October has arrived ana
no new sugar has yet reached the mar
ket, Which is fact so very unusual as
TO be worth notice. In the past twenty
years, at least, this has not happened
once. Ii is true there has been seasons
when the sugar crop as a whole was late
in coming 10 market. but there were al
ways few lots shipped during the first
half or the month of October The rea-
son for This very unusual occurrence Is
not difficult 10 find. As everybody knows.
the sugar crop of 1899 has been greatly
shortened by the III effects of last win
ter's severe and unprecedented weather.
As result OF this damage to the crop.
there is, of course. less cane to be worked
up by the mills this year; hence there Is
NOT the same reason for the mills TO begin
work at an early date as holds good in

says. "Sir Redyers Butler may be. as

MINES AND MINING
Famine in Copper Predicted
BY Spectators.
PRODUCERS NOT WORRYING
But Confident That the Metal Will
Reach a Higher Figure--
In the Libby District
PRODUCERS NOT WORRYING

The financial world is astir over the
growing demand for copper and the con-
sequent increasing price of that metal.
Every old copper producing mine in any
portion of the country is being started
up and on the Boston stock boards es-
pecially the stock in even non-producing
mines commands a very high figure.
The possibility of a famine in copper
is one of the causes contributing to this
state of affairs. The visible supply of the
metal is very small and 10 new districts
are being opened up. The copper pro-
ducers, however, are not worrying over
the state OF affairs and are confident that
the metal will this year reach the high
est price known in many years.

FEW CRITICISMS.

Thus far there have been fewer
criticisms OF the work of the Legisla-
ture than against a legislative body in
North Carolina for long time. The
personnel Of the body is fine and there
are many able men in it. They seem
to haya been doing good work from
the very FIRST day, and much may be
done during the next two weeks.
To be sure, the had a big task.
North Carolina Wa state of polit.
ical chaos; and dc the best possible,
which we doubt not they have done
and will do by the end OF the session,
there Will still be many things for the
next Legislature to attend to.
The thanks of the people of the
State are due the Legislature for the
efforts put forth to keep the pledges
the Dem ocrat,c party made to the peo-
pie during the last campaign.

LET Us NHNUFICYURE.

Last week THE COMMONWEALTH hint
cd at tie necessity for more manufac-
turing industries for this community
We wish to urge further that Scotland
Neck people bestir themselves little
and fall upon some plan whereby new
industries may be established.
Under the present status OF affairs
and the stringency in money matters.
we would not urge or advise that the
PEOPLE @! Scotland Neck undertake to
organize any companies Or company
with large amounts Of stock; but we
would urge the establishment of some
small industries.
We know that there are persons in
Scotland Neck and community who
either have money or can 1aise it il
they wish and we haye thought OF
this plan for ercreasing our industrial
enterprises
Let few of those who have the
largest amount OF capital purchase the
stock OF those who have invested small
amounts In the stock companies al
ready here, such as the cotton mills
and tobacco market, and then let those
who sell their small stock put their
money together, two or three in a COM
pany, and establish some smaller indus
tries.
A broom factory could be established
with only few hundred dollars and
there are ether industries that could be
established by two or three persons
con- bining small amounts and forming
partnerships instead of stock companies.
We believe these things are worth
thinking about and that the suggestion
could be acted upon proftably.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10Th.


SENATE.--The session of the Sen.

discussion was over the bill to amend

clamation Association. On motion
of Senator Fuller, the bill was tabled.
Senator Mcintyre introduced a bill to
make special annual appropriation OF
100000 to public schools. Senator
Justice introduced bill TO compel

of Law arising in cases brought up to it
on appeal.

lutely cured thousands of hopeless

ABOUT THE AMENDMENT.

Elsewhere we print the amendment
to the Constitution which will be sub
mitted to the people. The News &
Observer offers the following COM
ments on the intent OF the amend.
ment:
81. To allow all people to vote who
can read and write and who pay the
poll tax, where they are subject to poll
tax.
"2. To allow ali white people to vote
VINO cannot read and write, provided
they register prior to 1908.
Under the amendment no white
man can be distranchised. There was
not a single member of the Legislature
who would vote for a bill that denied
suffrage to men who haye with their
fathers always enjoyed it. They have
shown their fitness. They will under
the amendment be more certain of the
night to vote all their lives than thew
possibly could be under any election
law that could be devised. Not onlv
Is no voter denied the right to vote
and given fuller protection in the ex-
ercise OF the franchise, but their sons
are guaranteed their suffrage without
any restriction provided they register
by 1908, thus giving the guarantee to
every white boy over thirteen years Of
age. This Will work no hardship no.
cause In the nine years that follow
from the submission of the amend
ment the white boys In the State will
all learn to read and write sufficiently
to qualify themselves to exercise the
franchise. The submission of the
amendment will be the signal for a
revival OF education and we NAV look
for spirit Of interest that will so en-
velope the State that by 1908 every
white boy in the State has taken ad.
vantage of the opportunities to read
and write that will be afforded him.

CAPT. DAYREFUSED TO LET GO.

The question Of holding on or letting
so the penitentiary management was
brought to test with Capt. Day last
Friday. He refused to let go.

place in which to deliberate They in
vited E. 7. Clark, J. w. Denmark
\. Y. Sigmon, CIaudius Dockery anc
r. r. Gotten, the members OF the old
board, to JON in the meeting. The N
vitation was refused, Col. Gotten dis
senting from the vote.
The new board made the following
formal demand in writing on Capt
Day tor possession of the penitentiary
which was presented by Mess. w. c.
Newland and J. II. Wellington
$50 w. H. Day, ESQ.,:
''Dear Sir: We hereby notify you
that the Board OF Directors of the
States Prison of North Carolina has

provisions of the act of the General
Assembly, ratified January 25, 1899

the convicts confined therein as are in
your possession.

"Gentlemen Being of..opinioh that
the act of the Assembly, ratified Janu-
airy 25, 1899, under authority OF which
you profess to act, is unconstitutional,
and has no effect to deprive me OF Off
cial authority, or to relieve me or my
bondsmen of responsibility, or to au-
thorize you to demand the property
now in my custody, or to assume and
exercise any OF my official functions, I
therefore decline your demand for the
surrender OF the same, and the delivery
of said property or the control of the
c~lIlcts into your hands. Attic same
time, am ready to facilitate judicial
determination of your claims.
every respectfully,
"W. II. DAY."
''Supt. North Carolina State Prison"
The refusal of Capt. Day to surrend-
er the State prison to the new board Of
directors makes it necessary for them
to sue for poss ession, which it Is said
they will do during the next thirty
