PRUDENCE WITH FIRlNNESs.

The advocates of White Supremacy
rejoice that, under provocation that
would have almost excused resort TO
violence, there has been no infrac-
ton of the law by any Democrat in
North Carolina. This is in keeping
with the spirit of Democracy. 1t is
the party of law and order every
where, particularly in the South,
where the Republican party is the
party of lawlessness and disorder.
We earnestly call upon Democrats
in every county Of the State to exert
themselves to preserve this good re-
cord. prudence with frmness'
should be the watchword of every
Democrat There are those of our
opponents who would be glad to pre-
cipitate trouble and then wire to the
remotest portion of the United States
that the Democrats in carrying this
election had been forced to resort
to force, violence and lawlessneSS.
Let no such chance be given them!

Washinston's Opinion Of Trusts.

In ITS, General Washington's army
was not in very good condition. II
needed food and clothing, in fact the
soldiers were in rags, and with thei,
officers lived on the plainest of food
principally roots. Congress was strug.
Cling to supply him and his army
with the necessaries OF life, but it had
trouble with those who had the sup
plies, because they controlled the mar.
ket and were not disposed to let them
SO without being paid their own price.
1t was then that Washington wrote
Joseph Reed, President of Congress, to
the following effect:
at gives me sincere pleasure to
find that the assembly of Pennsyl-
vania is so we'll disposed to second
your endeavors in bringing those MUIR
derers of our cause, the monopolizers,
forestallers and engrossers, to condign
punishment. 1t is much to be In.
mented that each State long ere this
has not hunted them down as pests to
society and the greatest enemies we
have to the happiness OF America.
az would to God that some one OF
the most atrocious in each State was
hung in gibbets upon gallows five
times as high as the one proposed by
Haman.
"No punishment, in my opinion, is
too great for the man who builds his
greatness upon his country's ruin"

Do We Grow Old While Asleep?

1t is not while we work and worry
over the affairs OF life that We grow
old. 1t is while we sleep, according
to Flynn, the celebrated English
physiologist.
Mr.. Flynn leads up to this conclu.
sion through his advocacy of the
midnight dinner plan.

Mr.. Flynn points out the fact that
most persons look pale and tagged

look five years older on rising than
when retiring, and it is true. If you
would not grow old while you sleep, be

OF New York paid this tribute to the
men of the little South African repub.

The courage OF the Beers in the face
of tremendous odds has challenged the
admiration of mankind, and their he

obstacles has won the respect OF the
civilized world. They are entitled to
our sympathy, and we would be false

SILVER REPUBLICAN POSITION.

The Hon. Charles A. Towne, Chair
man OF the National Silver Republican
Committee, recently published most
important letter in which he outlined
the relative Importance of the issues
of the pending campaign as they ap-
pear to the Silver Republican. He
says that in his opinion the issues of
Imperialism and trusts have temporar-
lily obscured the silver question, and
he points out furthermore that many
of the evils existing in 1896 and which
it was the purpose Of the silver plank
in the platform of that year to cure,
have been in measure relieved by the
remarkable and unprecedented in
crease in the output of gold. He says
that owing to this increase in the out
put OF gold the tendency of prices is
to rise, a tendency which it was the
purpose of the Democratic party in
1896 to stimulate, and he thinks that
so long as this tendency shall continue,
bimetallists will not object merely be-
cause it is stimulated by more gold
money instead of by more money of
both metals. The bimetallist cause
he declares will yet have to be pressed
to victory, but in the immediate pres
ent he does not feel the monetary sit
uation a menacing one so far as the
purely metallic money feature is con-
cerned, and for that reason he holds
that the campaign will have to be
fought OH the new issues in order that
the constitution and the republic may
not be overthrown and that there may
still be saved to the people of the
country some measure Of industrial
liberty that has so far escaped the mo-
nopolizing endeavors of trusts. Mr..
Towne is actively engaged in prepar-
ing for the great convention OF the
Silver Republican party at Kansas
City, July 4th. The most i'm
portant features of it are the pro-
posed change of name to "Lincoln
Republicans" and the extension of
the scope of the party so as to interest
and include the great patriotic orders
Of the land.

CELEBRATE INDEPENDENCE.
Hon. William J. Bryan Suggests an Inspiritins
Duty to Democrats.

The following letter from the Hon.
William J. Bryan to w. S. Mexican,
secretary of the National League of
Democratic Clubs, contains sugges-
ton which may well be recommended
to Democrats everywhere:
"My Dear Sir-I regret exceedingly
that engagements made before your
invitation WAS received will prevent
my attending the Jefferson dinner. 1t
is especially fitting that in this CEN
tennial year of the party's first victory
we should commemorate the birthday
of the party's founder and patron
saint.
"In 1900 the genius of Jefferson Or
ganized the Democratic party and led
a successful fight against the aristo-
cratic ideas OF Hamilton; to-day, when
Democracy is engaged in a life and
death struggle with plutocracy, we
can find inspiration in the teachings
of the sage of Monticello.
The doctrine of equal rights to all
and special privileges to none, applied
to present problems, would restore an
equitable financial system, deprive ma
tional banks of the power to issue
paper money, destroy private monopo-
lies, remove the menace of militarism
and imperialism and imperialism,
save the nation from entangling alli-
ances, make it an example to other
nations, and its flag an emblem of
peace, justice, liberty and progress.
az hope that the National Associa-
tiOn of Democratic Clubs will urge
each local organization to celebrate
the coming Fourth of July.
"Those who assemble throughout
the country can listen to the reading
of the Declaration of Independence,
hear patriotic speeches and then learn
by wire that the National Convention
of the Democratic party, meeting on
that day, has ressserted the party's
faith in the principles set forth in the
Declaration and embodied in the con-
stitution of the United States.
Yours truly,
"W. ]. BRYAN"
1t should be the immediate effort OF
Democrats throughout the land to ar
range for Independence Day celebra-
tions. Bulletins from the convention
can be had OF the telegraph companies
at slight expense, and may be read to
the meetings between the speeches.

Kansas Corn for Starving India.

Officials and public spirited citizens
Of Kansas have under way q move
ment for affording relief to starving
inhabitants Of India that reflects great
credit upon the State. The response
ought to be generous and no doubt
will be. Gov. Stanley is at the head
Of the committee having the matter
in charge. One of the aims of the
committee is the collection OF ga
million bushels OF Kansas corn for
starving India"
Three days are to be set apart as
gift days. Saturday April 2S, is to be
known as "India corn day.; Sunday
April 20, as "India relief Sunday
and Monday, April 80. as "School
children's India relief day" On
Saturday donations OF corn are to be
received, On Sunday collections will
be taken in all the churches, Sunday
schools and other Christian organiza'
tions. On Monday collections will be
taken In all public schools and col
leges of the State. The amount ol
food and funds so secured should be
large and will be the means of saving
the lives of many human beings who
otherwise would die of starvation ir
India.
The excellent example of Kansas
| should stimulate Innia relief move
ments in other States. The condi
tions in India cannot easily be ex
agerated. They are piteous indeed
and should excite the generou
sympathy of the entire civilized
world.

In speaking to the writer about the
favorable influence that fine weather
has upon the production OF bright and
delicately shaded dyes and colors, a
famous English manufacturer OF car
mine recently said:
"SOme years ago was aware OF the
superiority OF the French carmine,
and, being anxious to improve upon
my own process, went to Lyons and
bargained with the most celebrated
manufacturer in that city for the &C.
QUESTION of his secret, for which | was
to pay 5000.
"Well, / was shown all the process
and saw a most beautiful color pro-
duced, but l noticed that there was
not the least difference in the French
mode of fabrication and that which
constantly adopted myself. / there
upon appealed to my instructor and
insisted that he must have kept some
secret concealed. The man assured
me he had not and asked me to in
spect the process a second time. ac-
cepted the invitation, and after had
minutely examined the water and the
materials, which were in every respect
similar to my own, / still felt Sc
much in the dark that said, j have
lost both my labor and money, for the
air Of England does not admit us to
make good carmine.'
/" Stayp said the Frenchman.
Don't deceive yourself. What kind
of weather is it now?'
"A bright and sunny day. re.
piled.
"And such are the days. said the
Frenchman, 'on which / make my
color. Were to attempt to manu-.
facture it on q dark and cloudy day
my results would be the same as
yours. Let me advise you, my friend
only TO make your carmine on bright
sunny days
"The moral of this" continued the
Englishman, "will apply quite as well
to the making of many other colors
used in manufactures, and also in the
fine arts, for it illustrates in a practi.
cal way the chemical influence oi
light upon certain coloring COM

Mark Twain on the B0er.

Mark Twain has met the Boer, and
this is what he says of him:
"He is deeply religious; profoundly
ignorant; dull, obstinate, bigoted; un.
cleanly in his habits; hospitable, hon
est in his dealings with the whites, a
hard master to his black servant; lazy,
a good shot, good horseman, addicted
to the chase; lover of political inde-
pendence; a good husband and father
not fond of herding together in towns,
but liking the seclusion and remote
ness and solitude and empty vastness
and silence Of the veldt; man of
mighty appetite, and not delicate
about what he appeases it with-well
satisfied with pork, and Indian corn
and biltong, requiring only that the
quantity shall not be stinted,
willing to ride long journey to take
hand in rude all-night dance inter-
spersed with vigorous feeding and
boisterous jollity, but ready to ride
twice as far for a prayer meeting.
