AUsPICIOUs OPENING.

The Democratic campaign was for
mally opened yesterday in Alamance
county. 1t was a perfect day. The
mills suspended for the annual Holt
day and large crowd greeted the
candidates, who spoke with power
and success. $ 1t was an suspicious OPP
ening of what promises to be the NEST
interesting campaign since 1876. In
all parts of the State the people are
aroused and determined to put an end
to not only the negro rule, 1but TO the
jeopardy of It.
From now until the polls close there
will be no abatement Of the work of
educating the people and of calling
upon the white people to eliminate
the ignorant negro vote from the
electoral franchise. At no time i'm the
history of the States. when aroused.
have the women of this State failed
to save their State, when assailed
from within or from without. They
will not fail this year.

THE STRIKE OF THE TELEGRAPH.
Frs.

1t seems that the strike Of the Or
der of Railroad photographers on the
Southern Railway could have been
averted if the officials of that road
had been willing to treat with the OF
ficers of that order. with a view to adj
iusting their differences. Instead OF
receiving them as officers. it seems
that the railroad officials were wiling
to deal with Mr.. Powell and others.
only as individuals. BY assuming
that position. the Southern Railway
declared war on the union. and the
telegraphic operators felt that the
road wished to crush their organiza-
ton.
While labor unions have made mis-
takes and sometimes have committed
wrongs, the fact remains that as long
as the railroad corporations are or
ganized into Il pool or union. the en-
ployes must have their unions where
by united action, they can compel the
Officers ana ONlleTS 10 ued1 justly ny
them. Take away the unions and the
organizations of laborers and me-
chanics. and the individuals would be
impotent to secure fair wages for
their work. Tho in jury of one is the
concern of ALL" They must make a
compact organization and stand to-
gether for reasonable wages and rea-
sonable hours. When their demands
are lust and lney resort to no NIo-
lence, public opinion is behind them
and they are sure ultimately to re-
ceive their just demands. When they
make unreasonable demands and re-
sort to force, they will not be sus-
tanned by public sentiment and must
fail. Public opinion is the most pow
erful factor in America in the adjust
ment of all questions. 1t always
stands" on the side of law and order.
but it is powerful enough to change
UNJUST and unfair laws. No corpora
ton is strong enough to stand against
it, no union of employees powerful
enough to resist it.
The sympathy felt ~ the engineers
and fremen for the telegraphic strik-
ers is due to the fact that they fear
the refusal to treat with that union
may be beginning of Il plan to crush
out other railway organizations.

What Section Hands Strike For.
(TarbOrO SOutherner.)

There is sound reason in the claims
Of the striking section hands. The sec
ton hands on the Wilmington and We'll
don, on the west Of TarbOro, are paid
more than the strikers. The section
hands on the road near the Virginan
line are paid more, while those in Vir-
ginia are paid more than any. These
strikers are not contending for Virginia
wages, but for wages equal to those paid
on the Wilmington and Weldon road, and
the other portions of the n. & c., in this
State.

II is now stated that among Dewey's
prominent hackers for the Presidential
nomination is his brother-in law, John
r. Mclean. 1t is reported that he says
Dewey will be nominated and elected.
The other Northern Democrats who are
behind him are lying low. The feeling in
Ohio is so strong for Bryan that Mclean
will have the job of his life when he at

WHY POPULIsM Is DEAD.

The Populist county conventions
over the State have been slimly at
tended Tn some counties there were
so few that the meetings were heid
in the revenue agents office or the Of
flee OF some other Republican Federal
official. In Wake, where few years
ago a Populist convention was largely
attended by enthusiastic Popuilsts,
il was a small gathering of ple-eaters
and ex-pie-eaters, where no syllable OF
that devotion to financial reform,
which was the early slogan of the par
tv. was uttered. Slim in its attend
ance. spiritless and representing moth
ing of worth, the Populist convention
of Wake county was even better than
in most other counties in the State.
WHY have these conventions been so
SHINY attended? The answer is pa
tent to the most casual observer. The
populist party exists no more III
North Carolina, except in name. 1t
has been traded off to send gold-bugs
TO Congress and elect negro officers in
Eastern North Carolina until it has
lost its character The time was that
it believed in its declarations. Then
it had power. 1t has been sold out
so often and its leaders have SO often
made It's declarations door-mat to be
trampled on, that it has no principles
to attract honest men. 1t has forfeit
ed the confidence of the people, be-
cause it's leaders have betrayed the
party principles in order to get offices
for themselves.
In most counties the Populist party
is differed by Republicans, or men
who take their orders from Republic
cans. How can a party fail to die and
be a stencil in the nostrils of decent
men when it is subseryient to the gold
standard and trust party? We pub
lish today a communication. showing
that Hal W. Aver, who presided over
Saturdays Populist convention, is
gold bug and that John w. Smith,
leading Populist of Marks Creek, says
he is ION the fence" on the money
question, and he is now Favorable to
tie gold standard" Pretending to
fight against the gold standard, the
Populist leaders in North Carolina are
traitors to their national principles. in
that they affiliate withsthe party that
has recently saddled the gold stand
ard on the contrary. Such treachery
has reduced the Populist party in
North Carolina from $4,000 voters, 10
less than 10000, and the attempt to
to make that 10000 vote for another
reign of negro rule will make that
vote shrink until the only thing left
of the Populist party in North Caro-
lima will be a grease spot on the
ground, and a smell of sulphur.
