The Reason Why.

The Monroe Enquirer gives some
reasons why papers and people usually
wait until a man dies to speak of his
good qualities and exalt his virtues.
1t says:
Let a man die" says the Fireside
Guard, land he is suddenly full Of
good qualities, his faults are all for
gotten and only the good is remem-
bered. Why not speak good of the
living?"
just for this reason, gentle reader.
If you take your pen in your hand
and write whole lot OF praise OF
some living man. you will, in all
probability, live to be given the lie
bv that mans actions, for we all play
the foo! at some time while we are on
the stage of action. And then, if you
praise man who cannot bear praise.
and some men are so constituted
that little prise makes most dis
gusting fools of them. you have done
great deal more harm than if you
had kept your mouth shut. With
these facts before us we continue t6
wait until men die before spreading
flowers on their graves.

ABOUT OUR PEOPLE.
Why North Carolina Has Produced no
Great Men, According to DR.. kilgo.
("The Tatler," in Asheville Citizel

t"The Tatler," in Asheville Citizen.)
DR.. Kilgo, who is remembered as
scrapper of some distinction, also
spoke. 1t was at Trinity College
commencement, and the learned doc
tor delivered the tobaccolaureate ad-
dress. He is reported as having said
that 1.-the reason North Carolina has
never produced a great man like
Washington, Clay or Webster is that
the socialistic spirit is too strong
here" This divine should not have
waited SO long to tell us about this
thing. Here we poor, plodding North
Carolinians have been moving along
our respective beaten paths for gene
rations, deluding ourselves that the
Old North State was doing fairly.
1t is true that North Carolina has not
pronuced a Kilgo or Washington,
but the people think their beloved
Commonwealth has done very we'll
Notwithstanding. She has gone on
year By year giving to the world
sturdy men and splendid women-a
race OF folks that will average with
those of any State. Far better is it
to have such people as this than to
have population in which one of
these big fellows would shine forth
gloriousiy because of his lonesome
ness.
George Washington was total
number in his day, but he would be
run over by trolley car in these
days. There are men growing in the
North Carolina mountains this very
minute who will be of as much real,
downright good to his fellowman as
was Daniel Webster. They may not
furnish as many speeches for half
baked graduates as Daniel did, but
when the mills have ground their
grist it will be found all that sounded
prettiest wasn't best. No, the mat
ter may be likened to the case of a
ranchman, who would rather have his
herd of cattle average well than to
have a couple Of good ones and the
remainder scrubs. | hope, however,
that DR.. kilgo's great school may yet
send into the world Washington, a
Webster or Clay. But don't hop on
us, dear doctor. 1t is true we are
free silverites, but the goldinos will
get over that after awhile.

When War Was War.
(WinSlOn ,JOurnal.)

1t seems strange to read the ac-
counts of the battles in the Philip
pines The fact of it is it does not
seem like battles at all. it is more
like small skirmish. If the fight
ing was more desperate. the war
would end sooner. 1t took a charge
up San Juan Hill to break the back
bone of the Spanish army-and still
that battle was not much.
1t was in our late civil war when
men got killed. There was no child 5
play, then it was war real and earn
nest. When from five to seven thous-
and men were killed in battle, and
from fourteen to twenty-five thous-
and wounded. it was war in its fierc-
est and most fatal aspect.
Ii was at Gettysburg, Spottsyl-
vania, the Wilderness and at Antei-
tam, where men were killed.

The North Carolina Press.
Wilmington Messenger.)

The Morganton Herald copied
paragraph from the Messenger relative
to the vigorous fight made by the
Democratic press last year and it's
purpose to repeat it in 1900. 1t then
adds:
True you are in vouching for the
press and its work next year. The
Scottish cross of fire never reader
woke the clansmen than does the
call of the State chairman upon the
State press. 1t is not pleasant to
add as a postscript that the united
press after election finds themselves
unable to pass a libel law in their in
;e.est or to secure the election of one
of their number to so petty place as
State librarian. But they are good
draught horses for all that, and keep
their withers unwrung by little
things like those mentioned. On the
whole your North Carolina editor is
man of bigger soul than he passes for
with the politicians. His trouble is
that he undertakes himself"
We have known editors in North
Carolina to serve their party for
life time and never draw a cent from
the public treasury. There are
some still living who have stood
faithful in the midst of the faithless,
unawed and unseduced, who never
had any kind of Office and never
wanted any. They have stood by the
Democratic party under defeat, and
when victory crowned it with hope
and rejoicing, and have in ten or
fifteen campaigns worked with all
zeal and energy and ability they
could command for the great party of
the people, without reward or hope
of reward. An enlightened, faith
full, genuinely Democratec press is
indeed the hope of the people, for it
is the unfaltering and honest friend
of the people-the sovereigns. 1t
has Argus-eyes aud Briarians arms.
This Argus DER the peoples rights doth
an eternal vigil keep:
May no soothing sound Of Maia's harp lull
his hundred eyes to Sleep"
We quote from memory and are un-
certain as to its correctness as given.
You can alter to suit A free, un-
trammelled, faithful press alone can
keep pure the Government and
shield the people from abuses,
usurpatious and expressions. When
ever little bab-tail judges-State or
Federal-begin to crack their whips
over the people, and to threaten
editors with Imprisonment for daring
to criticise their vicious, partisan
conduct, their general bad behavior
and indecencies, you may get ready
for the reproduction on a smaller
scale of the performances of Lord
Jeffreys of the ''Bloody Asize," and
the most infamous of judges. Then
the rifles will be seen around. But
| there is a trend to usurpation, of
high-handed procedures, and of con-
slant inroads upon the muniments of
freedom, and the rights of States and
the protection of the people. De-
