WHITE SUPREMACY.
The Welfare Of the People of North
Carolina Demands It-A Prominent
Watauga Republican Writes About
the Amendment.
Let white Republicans read
the following letter from Mr..
J. NJ. Isaacs, a prominent
Republican of Watauga. It
was printed in last weeks
issue of the Watauga Demo-
crat:
Pro and con there has been a great
deal said from the mountains to the
seashore concerning this the greatest
question in the history of the State.
Not long since we wrote a sketch, as
we now intend to do, in the interest,
not of the Democr attic, nor of any other
party as to that, but in the common
interest of that which has been the
founder of the greatest governments,
enterprises, ETC., which have given new
life and energy to the almost lifeless
and which has been the harbinger of
peace and in short for all that is good,
great and noble. AS Republicans we
are in favor of the adoption of the
amendment to the constitution. First,
because we are tired of being accused
of associating and attempting to keep
ourselves upon an equality with the
negro socially, morally, politically
and otherwise. Second, because the
negro has no business in politics, ever
being incompetent to figure politically
and nothing but nuisance to respecta-
BILE and decent society. Third, be-
cause we are thoroughly satisfied that
it will not disfranchise or deprive any
deserving white man from his privilege
to vote. Fourth, because we think the
educational qualification embodied in
section four (which applies only to
those who shall become of age after
January the first 1901 will be a great
incentive to higher education and
equally as good if not better than the
Massachusetts compulsory school law.
Fifth, because we feel assured that it
will only tend to build the great Re-
publican party if we would show by
our actions and our votes to North
Carolina and the world that we desire
nothing by the way of government ex-
cept it be given by the intelligent white
man. This, we as party, all favor,
SO we say by our words, but as actions
speak louder than words, how can this
be harmonized and shown to be the
truth in it's fullest sense if we work
and vote against the adoption of the
constitutional amendment which, if
adopted. means white rule and death
to negro rule or if defeated means a
continuance of negro Office holding
from constable to congressman as is
already shown to the world in the case
Of Geo. H. White the present Congress
man from the End district. which is a
reproach upon us as white people.
Also reference is made to the fact that
at least twenty counties in the State
have been ruled almost entirely by the
black race of North Carolina from 1894

remedy for this evil the proposed
amendment is now offered.
We hold the grand old party's prin
ciples [except this negro rule] as dear
to our hearts as Hons. Linney, Black
burn, or Pritchard and more so than
Marion Butler, whose only aims seem
for Office even if it takes the sacrifice
of the poor, helpless white people of the
State.
We, as party, are glad to stand
side by side upon questions which con-
fiicted not with the rights of voters of
the Anglo-Saxon blood but when a
question of such magnitude as that of
the amendment which the substance is
who are you; where do you stand; are
you for the white man and white mans
government, or are you for the negro
and negro domination and a general
uproar and an everlasting reproach to
North Carolina and the best white
upon? is asked us at the ballot box;
we will answer it in favor of white
supremacy.
We are pleased to see number of
our great leaders, to wit: Thomas
Settle, Judge Starbuck, the Governor
and various others of high repute and
they, fighting for such a noble cause,
may hope to be the stars of the first
magnitude, while their opponents will
surely vanish with the dark cloud on
it's back track behind the occidental
hills to rise no more.
In 1893 a mistake was made, by us,
in representing that should the Demo
cratic party go into power in this State
a property qualification of $500 would
be required before we could vote, for
we now stand betrayed to our constitu-
ents because no property qualification
whatever is required in the proposed
amendment and our constituents are
enabled to realize the misrepresenta-
tion, hence questions of great moment
to US and our party interest can be put
to the voter with little effect, for this
reason we should be cautious about
representations Tor misrepresentation
by the unscrupulous) with regard to
this amendment, for after August we
will see that no deserving white men
will be disfranchised.
We think if one party or the other
should be more earnest in working for
the amendment it should be our party,
because actions speak louder than
words, for when upon the various cam
paigns of the past we were accused of
being the negro party and favoring
negro equality we have deniedit. Now
the test is here. Within three short
months it is upon US. What shall we
do?
Let us throw technicalities aside
and not make it a party measure but
look upon it without any degree of pre-
judice, closely study the matter and
be not led against our interest and
that of our institution and noble
country men by those designing poll
ticians any further.
In conclusion allow me to say to one
and all this is an opportunity of life
time by which plans are devised to
rid ourselves Of the greatest curse, not
only to the State of North Carolina but
to this great Uuion ol ours.

Can't Get Around This.

The Philadelphia Times, which sup
ported Mckinley in 1896 and is as bit
ter as possible against the Is to 1
theory, concludes an able editorial in
its issue of last Tuesday as follows:
Whatever may be done by the sound
money Democrats it is entirely safe TO
assume that the national tickets are
now complete, and the people will have
to choose between President Mckinley
and William Jennings Bryan for Presi-
dent, with every present indication
that the issue of imperialism so point
edly and appallingly accentuated by
our present relations with China, will
be the paramount question and practic-
ally overshadow all others in shaping
the national verdict of 1900.
