AN EARLIER ACCOUNT.
Not until yesterday. since the exciting
,rInes of the days before the election of
1898 has this city been disturbed by the
curse of its negro magistrates.
The journal, III the days of 1898. when
the negro magistrates ran their riotouS
course in this City, having white mga
and women summoned before them, kept
the public pretty well informed of this
nefariouS trade.
The election of November, 1898. with
the first blow struck and victory secure!
for White Supremacy, caused a total
cessation of this negro magistrate busi-
ness, it was too warm" not to mention
its unropularity, and the negro magis-
trate went out of business.
But time seems TO have lulled these
magistrates at least ono of them, into
the idea that the election of 1898 was so
far in the past that white supremacy
was not Il special issue of today.
In this city case is set for this morn
ing. to be heard, if not tried. before a
negro magistrate.

TOBACCO GROWERS CONVENTION


No one could look in at the meeting
of the tobacco growers now III session in
Raleigh without being impressed with the
intelligence, ealnestnesS and sincerity of
the men who are trying TO put an end to
their robbery by the Tobacco trust. The
delegations from the tobacco counties are

co growers. They act as men charged
with a grave responsibility who know
that they are face to face with the most

the tobacco growers have returned fr3m
markets, where the trust paid them che
dollar for the same tobacco tina. brought
three dollars when the trust was or
ganized. and reflected that everything else
has gone up in price while their crop has
been pressed down to the cost of produc-

they should receive a just compensation
for their labor. The education of THEN
children and the common comforts OF
life depend upon securing Il better price
for their tobacco and is it any wonder
that their thoughts ami payers are CEN

The people of the Whole State are deep
ly interested in the convention and hope
that out of the various plans under dis
cussion. one may be evolved that will TO-
suit in such an increase in the price o.
tobacco as will give the producers a fair
and reasonable profit. The price of all
manufactured tobacco has gone up, the
demand for it is greater than ever before,
and the fact that the farmer gets less for
the tobacco than heretofore is enough 10

MIR. VESTS REMONSTRANCE.
Washington Post

Washington Post.
That was an impressive scene in the
Senate yesterday, when the veteran,
George G. Vest, bowed by the weight
of years and supporting himself with
both hands upon his desk, arose to pro
test against the intolerance, the spirit of
ostracism the policy of persecution and
denllnciation through which every man
who questions the administration poll
cy, or even the existing situation in CGba.
Porto Rico, or the Philippines, is held up
to public eXecration as Il traitor and Il
malcoutent. Many speeches have been
delivered ON the floors of Congress in
this connections speeches eloquent. fiery
cynical and philOsOphic-but no ONE OF
them has done more to bring out in sharp
relief the folly and tine arrogance of the
proposition that he who questions the
perfect VIRTUE and prCqriety OF the pres
ent state of things must needs be a traitor
and slave.
Weeks ago The Post protested against
the narrow and Iroscriptive poiicy'Of de-
nCuncing every one who failed to cele-
brate the governments attitude toward

passed when free citizens of a free coun-

preston of their honest opinions, or when
any clique cam oStraciZ" and degrade
those who do not reverently subscribe to
their petty fulminations. The attempt
to brand as TRAITORS and allies of the
ridiculous Aguinaldo every human being
who questions the wisdom and efficacy
of the military operations of Gen. Otis
is so silly and so impudent as hardly to
merit serious consideration. Yet it is
TART of the attitude of the administra-
tion's pretended opponents, and lit pro
yokes even more contempt and lndigna-
ton than the Missouri Senator has sug-
gested. The truth is that Mr. Vest kept
we'll within the facts when he complain
ed of the accusation of dishonest and UNI
worthy motives now hurled at every one
who dares assert his right of private

We venture the prophecy that 1T will
become necessary to arrest this war of

hvered powerful ard timely utterance.
