A MIRKY BLACK SCHEME,
Poor White Men to be Bought Like Sheep. Ne
groes to Furnish the Cash
Warsaw Dispatch.l


1t really seems that these white poll
ticans who oppose the amendment are
capable of many things. The last scheme
reported is that they are now actually
calling upon every negro in the Stete
to pay at least one dollar into the cara
paign fund Jerusalem my happy home
This caps the climax This goes full
length beyond all we have yet heard. Tic
idea that poor white men of North Car
DINA are to be insulted by offers q
brides gotten up by negroes is something
unheard of in all former elections in this
State. One hundred and twenty thous-
and negroes at 81 each will raise 1920,
600 A handsome sum to buy up the poor
white men of this State, and thus de-
feat the Constitutional Amendment OF
course the negroes will give the money.
But all the schemes, all the demagogues
and all the white enemies of the white
race could never induce the poor, proud
honest white men of this State to sell
out to the negroes. The very Sugges-
ton of such thing is an insult to poor
white man, and it will be resented at
tho polls in August in thunder tones 1t
would be easier to move the mountains
into the sea than it would to get the
sell their votes to negroes There is
TOO much honor, too much pride, too
much devotion to race in the white men
of this country for any such degradation
The low bred dirty trickster who got up
this idea mstook the poor men of this
country He forgot that the poorest
white man who lives within the confines
of this State is better than negro and
will fight if you tell him he is not. Yes
he has pride of race. His face and his
hands may be sun scorched and tanned,
but with pride and great eXultation he
will pull up his sleeve and show you
the pure white skin.
AS the devil and his cohorts were
kicked out and driven from the happy
abode so will these fellows who resort
to ways that are dark and deeds that
are foul be driven from place and power
in this land where men are proud of the
color of their skins and the beauty of
their hair.

turned sentiment towards reaction, the
closing being heavy and unsettled on "a
declining scale. The gain in cash showed
yesterdays preliminary estimates much
at fault They calculated upon gain
in cash by the banks of less than $4,000
OOO indicating a falling off in the return
flow of currency from the interior, COM
pared with last week of million dollars.
The bulls accepted this calculation as an
encouraging factor yesterday. as indi-
eating an increased use for money and
greater trade activity. But the actual
bank statement shows gain in reserves
of SALT 900, indicating the receipt from
the interior of million more dollars
than last week. There have been no
known operations during the week to ac-
count for a loan, but the large bank
clearngs indicate a special transaction.
The higher rates for money ruling in Ber-
lin make it probable that further Ameri-
can capital is being placed at interest
there. The additional reserve require
ment resulting from the loan and deposit
increase brought down the increase in
surplus reserves to 81 $40, $50.
In the bond market there has been
some Improvement in demand and in
prices as result of the accumulation
of idle money and the apathetic demand
for funds at the money markets. The
volume offering of we'll secured bonds is
small and prices advanced easily with
any considerable demand.
