THE FINNs REBELLING.

Chicago Times Herald.
Though the Finnish senate is nomi-
mated by the car it has addressed
memorial to him in which 1t declares its
inability to promulgate an imperial re-
script which trespasses upon the con-
stitutional privileges Of the Finnish
people This tyrannous order provides
for the infiiction of the Russian Ian
guage upon the country. for llmita-
ton of the right Of public meeting, for
the granting Of a right to Russians to
carry on certain trades that are pro-
hibited to the Firms. 1t Is the utterly
unjustihable decree of a cruel despot-
ism which has no regard for its pledges
and is bent upon destroying the liber-
ties guaranteed to its unfortunate de-
pendency.
Whatever the car does now in this
matter is in brazen defiance OF the law,
because the compact between Russia
and Finland specifies that there shall
be no change in the constitution Of the
latter country or in the method Of
levying taxes there. without the consent
of the national parliament. This con-

THE A1RsHIP TRIAL.

San Francisco Call.
Considering the importance Of the
experiment and the wide interest TAX
en- in all efforts to achieve aerial navi-
cation. the reports sent from Europe
concerning the trial trip of the great
vessel constructed by Count Zeppelin
have been strangely vague and unsat-
isfactory. The plans for the ship were
Of such nature that no difficulty was
found in obtaining capital to build in
accordance with them the largest air
ship ever undertaken. Public interest
in the experiment has been keen. and
yet when the trial trip was made on
July 2 hardly any attention was paid
to the result in the dispatches from Eu-
rope.
From the fact that so little was said
about the event it will be assumed the
experiment was unsatisfactory. It
happens, however, that of the little
that was said the chief part consists
Of an announcement that the trip was
satisfactory A dispatch to the New
York Sun stated that in the trial trip
the ship made distance Of thirty-ive
miles. and that Count Zeppelin was full
" satisfied with the working Of the yes
sell but It was added he would not un-
dertake another trip for upward of two
months. That sounds very much as If

DEMOCRATS MEET THE ISSUE.

The Chatham Citizen, Republican
and re-Populist organ, denounces Mr..
T.. w. Pou and Mr.. Atwater because,
in their speeches at Pittsboro on
Tuesday, they denounced the Republi-
can party because it put negro Of
fcials upon the people of the South.
The Citizen is very much in favor, as
are all other Mckinley organs, of de-
feating any man who meets the issue
of negro office holding raised by Nc
Kinley. The editor of the Citizen, who
is the Republican nominee for Con-
gress in the Fourth District, himself
raised the issue in his paper by de-
nouncing the Acknowledgement of the
negro, and Jenkins. the Hanna and
Mckinley candidate for Congress, in a
speech made when he was nominated,
declared that the amendment adopted
last August would not be allowed to
stand. When they make that issue.
they may we'll understand that the
Democrats will meet it.

A CALL TO ARMS.

f. Y. Webb. Democratic chairman in
Cleveland, and, by the way, one OF
the best chair1nen in the State, has
issued call for organization of Dem
ocratic clubs in every precinct in
Cleveland county. From his excellent
address to Cleveland county Who make
this extract: VS. =.
''Shall enormous trusts and mono
poles cont >Ie to force up the price
of every thing they sell and force
down the price of everything they
buy? Shall they be permitted to COB
bic up individual enterprises and
freeze out small business men in all
most every enterprise of our country,
and concentrating billions of dollars
in the hands of a few, thereby con-
.demning nearly all young men to per
petual clerkship and daily toilers?
Under Mr.. McKinley's administration
more of these trusts have been
formed than were formed during the
whole previous existence of the Re-
public. On one side or the other OF
this great issue every voter in Cleve-
land county will be called upon to
take his stand in the coming contest.
ut is vital to every Southern man
that we should elect majority of the
next Congress; for otherwise an at
tempt will be made to cut down our
representation in that body, decrease
our vote for President and cripple the
South in the manufacturing interest"
1t is to be hoped that the party
leaders in every county in the State
will begin at once to organize the
voters for the tremendous struggle in
which we have entered. The inaction
during the last month was natural
and necessary, because the people had
been under a great tension in the
State election, but now that the
weather is cooler it behooves the
friends of good government, who
would save the Republic, to stir them
selves so that North Carolina will
thunder an immense majority against
McKinleyism and Hannaism.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS,

I'D. M'KINLEY'S YELLED THREAT.
Thos. M. Hufham, in Hickory Democrat.
In his letter of acceptance the Presi-
dent sneeringly alludes to an 'illcon-
cealed vein of hypocrisy running through
the protests of those who profess to be-
lieve in government by the consent Of the
governed in the Philippines, while they
nullify that principle at home"
He also says that the Declaration Of In
dependence remained urexecuted until the
Republican party brought on the war and
made voters of the negroes. In this con-
nection he adds that the Republican party
has never advocated the notification of
the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
nor consorted with those who do advocate
their notification.
When we remember that the national
Republican platform denounces the con-
stitutionaI amendment as revolutionary
and that Governor Roosevelt in his cam
paign speeches points to North Carolina
to prove that the Democrats do not be-
Iieve in government by the consent of the
governed. it is easy to understand those
references in the Presidents letter, which
we have mentioned.
Evidently Mr. Mckinley considers the
people of North Carolina hypocrites and
nullifiers of the constitution. If he is
reelected he will of course try to en-
force the constitution in those wicked
States which he says have nullified it.
!. In view of is'utterances and the declar-
atoms of the platform upon which he
stands, there is not the slightest reason
for doubling that the Republican party
has determined already that North Car
DINA shall tread the wine-press of per-
secution. i' '1"s
AS for the Filipinos and the negroes of
this State, the comparison does not bear
analysis Everybody knows that there
is a vast difference between a State regu-
lating suffrage within its borders and the
wicked policy of forcing a government
shpon foreign people at the point of the
sword. u

Cowboy Better Than Farmer.

From Roosevelt's "Ranche Life and Hunt
ing Trail"
Peril and hardship and years of long
toll, broken by WEEKS OF BRUTAL DIS
SIPATION, draw haggard lines across
their (the cowboys and rough ridersO
eager faces. but never dim their reck-
less eyes nor break their bearing of self
confidence. When drunk on the villain
GUS whiskey of the frontier towns they
cut mad antics riding their horses into
saloons, firing their pistols right and left,
from boisterous lightheartedness, rather
than from any viciousness, and indulging
too often in deadly shooting ARRAYS,
brought on either by the accidental con-
tact of the moment or on account of some
long-standing grudge, or perhaps be-
cause. of bad blood between the ranches
or localities. They are much better fell
lows and pleasanter companions than
small farmers or agricultural laborers;
nor are the mechanics and workingmen of
great city to be mentioned in the same
breath"

TO OPEN THE CAMPAIGN.

The Democrats will formally open
the National campaign in North Caro-
lima at the meeting of the State Asso-
citation of Democratic clubs which will
be held in Raleigh on Wednesday, Sep
tember goth. 1t is not the purpose on
the party leaders to provide an elabo-
rate program for the meeting next
week or to signal the gathering by
club marching and the like. The
clubs are electing delegates from al
parts of the State. They will come
to Raleigh to devise plans for short
and decisive campaign, to touch elbow
to elbow, to hear eloquent Democratic
speeches, and to get in fighting and
marching trim for the November cleo
ton.
1t is hoped that every White SUI
premacy club that has not met since
the election will be represented, az
well as every newly organized Bryan
and Stevenson club, and that hundreds
of Democrats who are not enrolled IN
any club will be present. While the
meeting will be held under club aus
pices, it will be DEMOCRATIC rally
to which all Democrats are invited
and in which all Democrats will pc
made welcome.
Goyernor-elect Aycock writes THAI
he will be present, having accepted an
invitation to address the clubs and the
party. 1T will be his first speech IL
the campaign, and it will sound thu
KEY note of hostility to Imperialism
Trusts and Monometalism. 1t will bt

The two eloquent electors-at-large
Hons. Daniel Hugh Mclean and Lex
S. Overman, have been invited anC
will address the gathering.
1t is expected that Senator DAME
or Governor Stone or some other dis
tinguished speaker from abroad vii
also address the assembled Democrats

ers are urged to come and make The

DRUMMERS AND TRUSTS,

There are many influential classes
at work for the Democratic ticket
this year that were strongly arrayed
against Bryan in 1896. One of the most
powerful is the drummers. In 1896 they
made pilgrimages to Cantan and on
every train and in every hotel they
were the advance agents of Mckinley
ism. This year it is different. The
bulk of them are for Bryan. There
is a reason for this charge, and sew
eral of them. One is that they are
an intelligent class of men. They
have read about Bryan for four years
and have come to understand his devo-
ton to the true principles of govern
ment. They recognize him as the hon
estest and greatest living American,
who would not become the syndicated
president of trusts.
There is another reason-a reason
that appeals to them powerfully. In
a recent speech at a meeting of the
Commercial Travellers and Hotel
Mems League in New York, Mr.. John
M. Quinn, prominent commercial
traveller, gave these facts that will
have weight, not only with drummers
but with all others who stand against
government of trusts by trusts and
for trusts:
''Of the $4,000 travelling men in the
United States, $4,000 have been
thrown out. of employment by the
trusts, and $4,000 more have been COM
PEELED to accept reduction OF more
than so per cent in salary. Half of
duced have been taken from the road.
This item is of itself important, but
it is of small import compared with
the great loss to the country at large.
If 10000 commercial travellers have
been so injuriously affected by the
trusts, the small merchant-the great
middle class, which is the bone and
sinew of republicans suffered in
definitely more. And if the middle
class has suffered, the laborer who is
dependent on the middle class has
been compelled to bear his share of
loss. Let us see what the enforced
idleness of the commercial traveller
means. The statistics have been con-
servatively prepared by the president
of the Travellers Association who
shows that it represents an annual
loss of $114.000,000. This means that
$114,0O0,000 has been withdrawn from
the annual distribution of money i'll
legitimate channels of trade"
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1900-09-21
IT IS DISGUSTING

Yesterday we printed an extract
from Mark Hanna's speech in which
he insulted the intelligence of the
most ignorant man in the country
by declaring that there is not a trust
in the United States.
In another speech to the Mckinley
Commercial League he said:
az tell you, if Bryan is elected
which God forbidz-the horror OF Gal
weston will not compare with what
will happen
This is as great an insult to intelli-
gence as the statement about trusts.
There isn't a six year old boy who
believes that Bryan's election would
bring disaster to the country.
Such utteranta; as these disgust
honest men of all parties. If Mark
will keep on talking, the Democrats
will win in a walk.
