LEGISLATURE OF 1899.

Between those who really desired
protection against over-powerful capi-
tai and those who have got them
selves into the habit of prosecuting
the railroads aud the corporations
the General Assembly pursued a
steady and commendable course. The
passage of the bill to render foreign
corporations subject to the State
courts, and that to provide separate
cars for the races clearly indicated
the Assembly's independence. The
quick response to appeal for more
equitable adjustment of the mer-
chants purchase tax showed a fine
disposition to treat capital justly.
The failure of the effort to intiict upon
the railroads a gross income tax at
the same time providing for such
taxation if it shall come to be ex-
pedient. indicated the desire of an
independent Assembly not to 90 to
extremes in obedience to any clamor.
The passage Of an antitrust law may
indicate either the opposition of the
members of the trust or it to laws
for it is not to be hoped that the law
passed, or any other State law, will
make an end of trusts. j. w. Bailey,
Editor Biblical Recorder.

Spencer Blackburn.

"Goebel was shot down at the steps
of the capitol because he was the arch
perpetrator Of this hellish scheme
1t was no more than might have been
expected" Then drawing himself up
to his full height, he shouted: "North
Carolina Democrats may take warn
ing from the fate of William Goebel." "
-E1tract from speech of U. S. Asst.
District attorney Blackburn at Newton.
The Goebel referred to by Black
burn in the above harangue was the
Democratic Governor-elect OF Ken
lucky, who was foully murdered by
the followers of Governor Taylor, the
Republican ursurper of the office to
which Goebel had been elected, be-
cause he dared to contest before the
Legislature in the way provided by
law the right of this usurper to the
Office of Governor.
Blackburn is very close to Repub-
lican Chairman Holton. Holton is
United States District Attorney OF
the Western District and Blackburn
is his assistant in this office. he
is a protege of Senator Pritchard !.

Long since our men went forth superb and
gliStening,
Flushed with the fierce expectancy of
fight;
But on the women of England, waiting,
listening,
Dreaming alone at night
o Lord. have mercy!
They revel high, to wars grim banquet
TO the dregs they drain life's cup, but
we sit here,
Silent, obscure, in cloudy shadows hidden
Tortured with hope and fear
o Lord, have mercy,
The little feet that once with sweet caress-
The mother fondled, feet of her only
son,
Through what red sea of slaughter are
they pressing,
Beneath an alien sun?
0 Lord, have mercy!
In night illumed alone by the scarlet
lustre
That lights the valley of death from
while to while,
We hear the winds of winter rage and
bluster
Around our lonely isle
o Lord, have mercy!
On us. who grudse not that which we are
giving,
Flesh of our fesh life OF our very life,
Thou who art Lord both of the dead and
living,
On mot her. daughter, wife
O Lord. have mercy!

WHITE SUPREMACY.
THAT is THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE
NOW BEFORE US.
Adoption of the Con Institutional Amend.
ment Will Secure This-An Issue
Upon Which All True White Men
Without Regard to Past or Present
Political Differences Ought to Unite
The Negro a Menace In Politics.

North Carolina's free schools and
the hundred thousands of children
who look to them have suffered
enough in the name and for the sake
Of politics. The offices in the system
from the highest t. the lowest have
been for years at the mercy of the
party system. The time has come
when the temper of the people is such
that every move to lift the system
out Of politics will be esteemed by
them as proof Of patriotism, and on
the other hand any inconsiderate
handling Of the schools so raw with
Affections these last few years will be
sharply resented. We believe the
true course to pursue will be that of
beginning with the highest office, and
filling it not on party grounds, but
with the man whose independence Of
parties can be counted upon and
whose devotion to the free schools is
sure; and in giving hin. power to a
degree to estop the exercise of parti-
sanship in the counties. The occas-
ion in North Carolina is peculiarly
ripe for a move in this direction. and
we shall be grievouslv disappointed
if it is not taken advantage of.-Bib-
Hcal Recorder.
