this morning received a cablegram from
Adelbert Hay United States consul at

that existed in some quarters that the

Col O'Beirne to receive recognition
from our government as diplomatic rep

Fads and Fancies.

In nothing do the styles change as
frequently as in neekwear. The long
chiffon tie, in all colors is the fad of
the moment. They are passed twice
around the neck and tied in short loops
with long ends, sailors knot, or simply
fastened with fancy brooch.
There are many cape effects popular
now. A novel fancy just turned out by
Doucet is a pleated blouse jacket with a
deep collar attached to it like revers.
The collar is cut in scallops. and is deep
enough to cover the shoulders. It fas-
tens to the jacket on the sides with
several large buttons.
The stores are already beginning to
show pretty materials for shirt waists,
and the early spring waists at least
will be made very little differently from
those of last season. The midsummer
ones will afford more opportunities for
trimming, and it is said that they are
to be deliberately trimmed with lace, in

THE List ANALYSIS.

The Democratic party is now closing in a campaign 5
in this State that has for it's cardinal issue one of the 5
most radical changes in our system of government ever :
proposed in the history of our commonwealth-the Con- 5
stitutional Amendment, whereby the elective franchise in :
North Carolina will be curtailed by at least &c, 600 igno- :
rant negro votes. that have hitherto, in common with :
$4,000 others of their race, been cast as a solid mass, :
unchanging and changeless, against the best interests of :
the State, and the peace, the happiness, the progress, the {
safety, aud the hope of her white people, who alone are !
capable of self government. /
The Democratic party, after more than a generation !
of effort to school this black mass of dense ignorance and
racial prejudice, and often hate, has at length recognized :
that the safety of our free institutions and the perpetuity
of Anglo-saxon supremacy demand that the God-given
prerogatives of race superiority shall determine the exer-
else of the elective franchise, and, true to the traditions of
Its great founder and it's heroic promoters, true to it's d.
vinely ordained mission to nurture right principles of
political economy and stand for the survival Of the fttest
always, this great party has had the courage to boldly
proclaim through it's proposed constitutional amendment
that negro domination shall henceforth be heard Of no
more in North Carolina, and that the heritage of our IA
theirs shall be maintaloel by the Anglo-Saxon manhood
of our time and handed down untarnished and secure to
! the generations who are to come after US.
This Is the final analysis of the proposed Constitu-
! tonal Amendment. Read it as you may; misrepresent it
3 as you please; discuss it from every viewpoint of po1ti-
y cal ethics: but when you come down to the real thing it
= self, and how it is going to operate, it means Anglo-Saxon
3 Supremacy against Negro Domination: 1t means that the
y white people shall rule this country, that is theirs by ev-
y cry right of discovery and defense, and, that the inferior
y negro race, that nowhere in the world has ever been able
3 to establish itself or accomplish anything. shall no longer
Y here in North Carolina dominate our political affairs.
y menace our social happiness and safety and retard our
3 material development and industrial progress.

it could be accorded him; there's

TO be sent to China, where he
could see active service at once.
The little General travelled all
the way TO the Philippines TO get
irto a genuine fight, bat the other
ambitious officers would not give
him the opportunity. He knows
that he can get a fight and get it
quick if be goes to China: there

more fighting like that around
Pekip, the General will proba-
bly, find a warmer reception than
he or any one else desires.
There is nothing new in the
fight which Bryan is making
against Mckinley. It is the old
battle Of Wing against Tory un-
der the new name Of Democrat
against Republican. It is the
masses against the classes-the
people against the monled aristo-
cracy.
If by soma bocus-pocus you
could shove the presidential
cam"paign" about 10 years
back, Mckinley would be stand
ing for the "Crown" and Bryan
would be fighting for the ''col
: onies."
. Here is the principles: McKin-
ley, Hanna and the Republican
gang are fighting to do to the
Z P Philippines exactly what the old
Wings fought to keep England
!. from doing to the colonies.
+. It is Wing againot Tory-and
. if Tory wins somebody is bound
to get hurt. TheAmericans are not
going to stand everything. They
are slow to anger, but when
thoroughly aroused, dangerous to

alton of this great fight by the white people of the State ]

Nevada Board of Education Refuses
Request OF High school Graduates.
Special to Times epublican.
Nevada, May SIN past years 1t has
been the custom for graduates of the
Nevada high school to deliver their
own orations at the close OF their
school work. The present out going
class, however. seem to have had other
views regarding the manner in which
they are to step out into the world, as
they recently presented petition to-
the school board asking that speaker
of some note be procured to deliver the.
address at graduation time in lieu OF
the exercises which have always been
held before. The board appears to have
looked at the matter unfavorably. since
the granting of the petition was re-
fused, and the members of the class
are highly incensed at their. action.
One of the reasons for this course, as
stated by member of the board, was
that the parents should not be robbed
of the pleasure of listening to the ora
lions of their children. which he re-
igarded as fitting crown for the
closing Years of school life.
