POLICE AFTER THE MIGRANTS
Tramps Will Be Run In Wherever
Found.

The first tramp of the season to be
locked up here will be given trial in
county court this morning. When
this ''vag" was locked up he is said to
have remarked, "Well, there's one
d-n tramp less outside" Judge Crisp
may make his words prophecy when
the case is tried IN his court. Chief
Wheeler says he is going to rid the
city of these pests, and will send out
an officer nightly to round up any
found begging. A day or two ago
Officer Glawson found two greasy, dirty
fellows camped in piece of swamp in
the suburbs, but they were allowed to
go upon their promise to Ego and stay
gone" Many complaints have been
made of the presence of tramps recent

600

City Clerk Davis and his corps of as
slstants were kept very busy yester-

believed, will exceed 600 or possibly
$50 by election day. Voters manifest

At Laporte, he said, that ''all the good.
true men III this nation were lining I'M
on our side"
We take all these quotations from
the report of Hanna's speeches in the
Washington Post. To simply print
them without comment as the utter
ances of the man who has been made
the King-maker of the Republican
party is sufficient to discredit his ca
pacity to lead, to expose his ability to
discuss public questions and to dis
gust fair-minded men of all parties.
1t is preposterous to say that "ah the
good true men of this nation belong.
to one political party, that "all the
honesty and integrity are on one
side, and that nobody but a crank
will vote for Bryan" Such extreme.
violent, and untrue expressions are
sure to defeat the object for which
they are employed. The truth is, I'M
fortunately, that in the Northern
States the integrity and honesty are
too nearly equally divided in the two
parties, and the voters are so devoted
to party that they still vote for it's
nominees even when base leader like
Mark Hanna makes merchandise Of
its principles. This close division
makes it possible for corrupt man
like Hanna, in control of the party's
machinery, to carry his point in de-
fiance of the true sentiments of the
people. Take today the great ques-
tons of imperialism, trusts and mon
ey. Under Hanna's orders the Re
publican leaders do not discuss either.
They exhaust their oratory to hold
Republicans in line for the party
and the workers" are paid from an
immense corruption fund to buy cleo
ton officers and spend money in any
other way to continue this corrupt
and un-Republican administration in
power. All the indications are that
many honest Republicans prefer the
Republic as founded by the fathers to
partisan advantage and will vote for
the Republic. hanna's gross and low
abuse of Mr.. Bryan will strengthen all
such men in their determination. Is
it because Hanna reads, Thou art
weighed in the balances and found
wanting" that he talks as one bereft
of sense?

THE DISH FOR THE SOUTH.

Those Southern men who vote for
Mckinley vote to put in power a party
that is bent upon the robbery of
Southern representation. No man
understands Republican methods bet
ter than David Bennett Hill and he
warns Democrats that if given full
power the Republicans will reduce the
number of Southern Congressman and
the South's representation in the cleo
toral college. The Washington CORE
spondent of the New York Herald
says that in adopting basis of rep
resentation under the new census the
Republicans will ~adopt a basis that
will give them the most advantage
The Herald correspondent then adds:
ut is not the determination of the
basis of apportionment, however, that
will excite the most acrimonious de-
bate. 1t is the proposition which the
Republican leaders have under consid-
GRAFTON of reducing the representation
OF those Southern States that have
adopted constitutional amendments
DISTINGUISHING the negroes. They find
their warrant for this in the four
teenth amendment to the constitution
of the United States"
That's the dish of which Southern
men are asked to partal1e. Those who
vote for Mckinley endorse the humilia-
ton of the South for partisan and
sectional ends.
If any Southern white man, who
wishes it to have increased instead Of
diminished power, is thinking of vot-
ing for Mckinley, let him read the
following extract from Mr.. Hills
speech at New York's grand Demo
cratic meeting last week:
Our national victory would not be
complete without the election of a
Democratic. House of Representatives.
1t is the House which controls the
purse of the nation, as well as reve-
nue. measures must originate there.
LET me warn Democrats of the dan
ger that confronts them. A Republi-
can President and Republican Con-
gTess mean the enactment of another

unfortunate complications in Ken
lucky will be made the pretext for the
necessity of such measure at this
time This would be followed by a re-
duction of Southern representation in
Congress, which is to be fixed and APP
portioned by the next Congress. Such
a reduction will be attempted to be
justified on the fiimsy plea that the
colored vote is suppressed in the
Southern States, and such reduction
would proportionately decrease the
number of electoral votes in those
States. as the electoral votes are based
upon the Congressional representa-
ton. This is the Republican scheme
to intrench themselves in power for
years to come. The Republican lead
ers DARE NOT DENY the existence
of such an intention. The danger pre-
scented to all Democrats is greater than
mere questions of finance or money:
it involves the integrity and existence
of our party organization

THE BIGHT POLICY.

T. A. Richardson, writing to the Bal
timore Sun, says that the feeling in
Buffalo is very bitter toward the per
sonal followers of Cleveland who will
not support Bryan, and adds:
after the election, irrespective of
the result, this antagonistic element
will have no recognition from the reg
ulars in the future. This determina-
ton is most plainly announced"
This is the correct policy. No Dem
ocrat who does not support the presi-
Dental ticket ought to be permitted
to take part in the Democratic councils
or hold any office from constable up
in New York and in North Carolina,
This is not prescription. 1t is pre-
serving party honor and party disci-
pine, necessary to party usefulness
and party success.

Under the 1890 census Virginia has
ten congressman and North Carolina
has nine. In the 1900 census, the pop
ulation of North Carolina exceeds that
of Virginia, and this State ought to
have an increase in Congressional
representation. If so we favor one
Congressional district composed Of
Madison, Mitchell, Wilkes, Yadkin. and
other mossy-back Republican counties,
and that will give nine bomb-proof
Democratic districts.
