Note. from the National Capital


From our special eorrespoadeai-l
Aguinaldo's next bit OF encourage.
ment will be carried in the Kansas
City platform.
The political organization that de-
pends upon unrest and discomfort
ment for its success is an excellent
thing to deprive of power.
The closing of mill opens fresh
petal OF democratic hope. Fortunate
ly few such openings and closings are
taking place these days.
II the republican party remains in
power there will be come definite
congressional Legislation in regard to
the control of trusts, so that they
shall not interfere with competing
industries.
Republican Legislation has tied
our hands; we could do no great
amount OF harm in four years Are
the voters prepared to turn the gov
ernment over to men who come TO
them with such appeals!
II the democratic party could Sc
cure new platform, new managers
and new candidate as easily as they
secure new convention hall, the re-
publicans might not feel so confident
of the result of the coming election.
Kansas had only sl4,553,533 Of
deposits on December 10. 1896, in
its banks. But on June 80, 1893,
the deposits aggregated S33, sos, lol-
More than doubled since the days of
Jerry Simpson and the Wilson tariff,
Exports of American manufactures
will pass the $400, 100000 mark for
the fiscal year ending with next
month. In 1895 they only amounted
to SlS3, sos, 743. And yet there are
a few people who are still opposing
protection and commercial expansion.
Imports OF manufactures OF iron
and steel have decreased by SO per
cent during the last thirty years,
while our exports of American man
ufactures OF iron and steel have in.
creased by 1872 per cent. Doesn't
look as though protection injured the
export trade!
Recent troubles between the steel
and wire combines show that even
big trusts can not compete amicably
for trade. As a matter of fact, the
bigger the corporation, and the more
it attracts publicity, the more vulner-
able It is il it does not deal fairly by
the public or its employees.
The Pacific slope from Puget
Sound to Lower California is a unit
for expansion. The voters ont there
will no more vote to retire from the
Philippines than New Yorkers
would vote to abolish all Atlantic
commerce. 1t is not difficnlt to. con.
vince them that trade follows the
flag.
The Manila correspondent OF a
Paris paper, lie Temps wrote that
If the Filipinos "Gid not expect help
from the democrats the killing of
American citizens and the expense of
the war would end at once.r Every
human being who wishes to see our
soldiers defeated is opposed to Nc
Kinley. 1t is singular indeed what
sympathy the democratic party in
spires among the enemies Of our
country.

The silver republican state central

declaring that they must have the

The democrats hoped to get Sena-
Hoar to oppose the. re election OF
Mckinley Oh the expansion issue.
The senator, however, blasted all
their hopes by announcing that he

In the campaign of 1898, the Peo-
pies Party of Craven county nomi-
mated Mr.. William b Smith for the
Legislature. The Republicans nomi-
mated Isaac q. Smith, the colored
man they cartooned SO all over
Western North Carolina as the "biR,

cans were running for the Legis-
lature against a white man.
The Republican chairman of that
county. Mr.. Aoner Barber, init.
mated to him or rather asked Smith,
to come down in favor Of the Popu-
list candidate. Any way. Isaac
told Barber "that he could not af-
ford to withdraw from the ticket-it
was too much against his interest to
do so, as Mr.. Jas. A. Bryan had Of
fered him $500 90 in cash to stay on
the ticket, and had advised him not
to be pulled of for q Populist."
This was published in q poster and
scattered over the county, and We
have been informed that it was never

Republicans must remember that, Hs
the Advocate said last week, the demo-
cratic county candidates are running as
matter Of principle and not with de-
sire for gain or for Office. Thus we have
it from their party organ that Mason
aud Polzin and Graham and Hansen and
Hawk are running principally to help
maintain their party's principles, free
silver and Organism and nnti-expansion.
Therefore according to their own claims
any republican who votes for any one OF
them will be just that much aiding the
principles Of the democratic party.
