a darkey was seen on our streets one

basket full of wild strawberries, to say
nothing of two others with peck each.

The farmers of North Carolina, like

izing for the fight has already begun.

TWO WEEKLIES IN EAST
so SAYS A REPUBLICAN F1eOsl
WASHINGTON,
EDITOR FOR "DAILY' NOT YET CHOSEN
He May be Raleigh Newspaper Man and Then
Again He May be Only J. F. CT ok, of
the Hickory Mercury. The Negro
viii Play Small Part.

Raleigh is to have another morning
paper.
As if two it already has were not
enough.
1t will be anti-amendment paper-The
Daily Caucasian.
The editor has not vet been named,
though it will probably be one OF two
men.
IT the other man Of the two declines it,
why then it will be j. +. Click, OF the
Hickory Mercury.
In addition to this two or three weekly
papers (anti-amendmenD ARE TO be star
ted at once in the Eastern part OF the
State.
Just exactly where, and by whom edi-
ted, is not yet determined.
This is the news, that a Republican
brings from Washington. He can give
no further details at this time, as plans
have not been perfected otherwise than
as above set forth.
The date on which the Daily Cauca-
sian will start, nobody knows, nor what
arrangements it will be able to make for
a news service.
Though compelled to admit that there's
a negro in their wood pile this campaign,
the Fusionists are doing all in their
power 10 keep him out Of sight.
This is necessary for three reasons:
l. There are some Iilly-White Repub-
iicans
2. The Pcpulist doesn't have any too
much love Tor the black man in poll
ties.
3. The more ignorant white man must
be made to forget the negro and think
only OF himself.
If these three elements are not kept
in line against the amendment, then it's
as good as carried.
The Republicans know this. The Pop
ulists of the Butler brand know it. So
what are they doing?
Instructing the negro leaders to per-
suade their people not to attend the
primaries and conventions of their party
this year--leave the whole thing in the
hands of their friends.
In fact the program is that they shall
absent themselves from the campaign
altogethr. and neither register nor ge
to the polls. No negroes viii be a.
lowed TO make speeches
This is all done at the request of the
Butler Popuhsts, who hope thus to make
it q white mans fight.
A prominent Populist tells me this,
and adds that well directed efforts are
being made along this line by RepublI-
can leaders and that the prospects now
are that they will be largely success
ful.
AS TO the success of this plan, how
ever, there is considerable room for
doubt
''Do they expect us to stand idly
by while our liberties are in DANGER"
said negro leader and politician yes
terday. If they do they'll be badly
fooled. Well do nothing of the sort. Ii
we did, we'd deserve to be disfranchised.
Just now the negro is dazed. He doesn't
know where to turn or what to do, but
mark my words, you'll hear from him
later on in the campaign"
Whether their leaders wish it or not
the negro is going to be very much i'll
the coming campaign.
