THIS LEGISLATURE HAD TIME
TO HONOR LEES MEMORY.

In the Legislature of 1895, when it
was proposed to adjourn in honor of
Robert e. Lee on the 10Th of January.
a Fusionist Senator objected, saying,
I'VE havn't time for any such thing"
The Fusionists did not raise that point
when it was proposed to adjourn in hon
or of Fred Douglass.
Times have greatly cha nisegnced
Times have greatly changed since then.
The peoples representatives, true to the
patriotic sentiment of the State, have
time to do honor to the memory of the
great and pure leader of the Southern
cause, and yesterday both bodies adj
journed earlier than usual out of re-
spect for the day and the hallowed mem
cries that are bound up in it.
This contrast tells more than anything
else the wide gulf fixed between the
gang in control in 1895 and the patriots
who now have in hand the destinies of
the commonwealth.

KEEP UP THE LICK"


The News and Observers editorial
yesterday upon the Importance of pass
ing the Hairston bill, or a bill that will
carry out the pledge of the Democratic

members of the General Assembly. 1t

Assembly is composed of men who are
going to fulfill every promise made TO
the people no matter how much kick
ing there is from any quarter.
Keep up the lick" said an able law
yer. a member of the House. The
foreign corporations ought not to ash
for any privileges not enjoyed by home
corporations, and if they do, this Legs
lature is pledged to deny their request
We are here to give every encourage
ment to home and foreign capital. and

FRIDAY. January 20, IS
ABOUT SUBMITTING QUESTIONS
TO THE PEOPLE.

The verdict of the people of North
Carolina last November was that in the
future the mass of ignorant negro vot-
ers should not have the destiny of the
State in their keeping, and that by Con-
stitutional methods this dangerous vote
should be eliminated. Restriction of
suffrage means that the white men OF
this State intend to govern it, and make
it impossible for fdemagogues to ride
into Office by an appeal to the negro
and small per cent of dissatisfied
whites.
The full effect of the verdict Of the
people cannot be seen until after the
election in 1900, when a Constitutional
amendment will be ratified that will
make a white primary the real govern
ing force in North Carolina as it is in
all the other Southern States. True
wisdom dictates that, until this full
measure of relief is secured, the leaders
of the party ought to make it impossible
for any element of white voters to APP
peal to the negro voters upon any pub
lie question.
There will be various matters before
or to abolish that, provided this act
shall be submitted to a vote of the
people" 1t viii be well to go slow upon
al such propositions. however good in
themselves. The Democrats in the
last campaign determined that the white
voters should be the people in North
Carolina so far as shaping politics was
concerned Heneeforth everything, poll
cies and nominations, should be submit
ted to white primaries, and the big, ig-
norant negro vote should not be permit
in matters of State concern. If local
questions are submitted to all the peo-
ple. the negro vote will be appealed to-
the negro will be Freinstated in politics
as factor, his vote will be bought and
sold, and in the county in which this
occurs the victory for White Suprem-
acy will be endangered. Where any
measure is in the balances SO that there
ought to be resort to the referendum,
(and there are such measures), the mat
ter ought to be settled in white primaries
under the control of white men. No 9th
or settlement is permanent. No other
settlement is in keeping with the policy
of the Democratic party. Submission
of any question to the people that in
cludes negro voters win do incalculable
harm and ought not to be resorted to in
any Eastern county.

Additional Testimony as to the Merits of $
Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy.

A gentleman remarked recently that
had a stranger or an outsider come to
North Carolina and made the cures
among our people that Mrs. Joe Persons
Remedy had made, the people would
have been stirred as never before.
Read this and suppose q case:
'Eleven years ago | had a child that
was delicate from birth. and for six
months she was under constant care Of
the best physician we had in our town.
But his medicine seemed powcrIcss to
control the bowel trouble, which had
become chronic dysentery. She also
suffered from some aggravated blood
trouble, which caused large sores and
risings to break out on her body. OFT
time there would be us many as 20 or
%. We had several doctors to treat her
at different times, but nothing reached
her case. They would lance these ris-
ings, but as soon as one was cured
another broke out, and the doctors gave
me no hone of her cure. After she had
led life of agony and suffering for six
months. | was inspired to try Mrs. Joe
Persons Remedy. There was change
for the better in twenty-four hours, it
seemed TO check the bowels at once,
and after using few bottles my child
was entirely cured, and has never since
had any sign of the trouble, and is now
in perfect health. A few years after
this | had two sores to break out on my
ankle, and strange to say | did not
think of Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy. |
was under the treatment of doctors for
three years, but the sores continued to
get worse until they had eaten to the
bone. | then thought Of trying Mrs.
Joe Persons Wash, and did so, and it
is almost useless to say it soon made
cure.
81 wish l could speak so that every
man, woman and child in North Caro-
lima could hear me, that / might tell
them what Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy
and Wash did for me and mine. ] adj
vieed one of my friends who had been
a terrible sufferer for a long time, with
nurses sore mouth. She used the Rem
edy and Wash and it soon made cure.
Il have recommended it to ever so
many of my friends, for indigestion and
other ailments, and L have never known
it to fail to cure yet There is no medi-
cine equal to it.

IN AIEMORIAM.

Entered into life eternal, William Ruff
fin Tucker, January 10th, 1899, in the
thirtythird year of his age.
To the near ones who love him, to
the many friends who admired and hon
ored him, his years among us seem
all too brief. What are the lessons
of life. are they not courage fortitude
unselfshness, love? He did not need
four-score years and ten to learn these
well. He lived only tine allotted years
ri his Lord, but in that time he had
learned the tasks his Master set, and
was the more early ready for the great
reward.
For nearly seven years he battled
with consumption, and though the strug-
gle was always hopeless, only God in
Heaven knows how heroic it was. III
and suffering, he worked on uncomplain-
ing. Il long ago determined to do my
duty to the end" he said on his death
bed. Speaking to his mother, he said
tenderly, Ever since my father died, /
have tried to take his place to her, and
do all | could for my mother"
An unselfish and loyal husband, gen
eLUuS Il uCfOlSu sun, an dACIliuli-
ate brother, and an earnest friend, he
fulfilled faithfully all his relations in
life. Tired of the long, hard battle for
breath, he was glad indeed when the
summons came, well done, good and
faithful servant, enter thou into the joy
Of thy Lord" His was not death, in the
hard and painful sense of the word,
rather a triumphant passing away, a
peaceful crossing of the Valley of the
Shadow" in the confidence of a certain
faith, in the comfort of reasonable, re-
ligious and holy hope"
As DIR. Marshall pronounced the beau
tiful benediction, THE Lord bless thee,
and keep thee; the Lord make His face
to shine upon thee and be gracious unite
thee; the Lord lift up His countenanc,
upon thee, and give thee peace, both
now and eyermore; Amen, he fell into
unconsciousness from which he never
walked until the soul took fight from
the suffering body that had bound il
seven sad years The influence of such
Il life cannot die. TO many of US. anC
to complain of the petty ills and trifline
pains of life, his strength gives strength
the memory Of his patience and long
suffering sustains and comforts, and III
spires us to be brave, as he was brave
Il have fought a good fight; | have
finished my course; / have kept the
faith"
