Amendment Constitutional.

One hundred and seventy
members of the North Caro-.
lima bar, after having exam
ined and considered the pro
visions of the proposed a.
mendnent to the constitu-
ton submitted by the Legis,
lature Of 1899 to the people
for ratification, give it as our
opinion hat the said amend
ment is not in conflict either
with the State or Federal
Constitution.
We further give it as our
opinion that the 4th and 5th
sections OF said amendment
are so connected in subject
matter, each so clearly and
dependent and conditioned
upon each other that both
must stand or fall together,
and that it is too clear to ad
NIT OF a doubt that the 4th
section cannot stand if the
5th section should be declar-
ed unconstitutional.
1t is clear this amendment,
if ratified, will not disfran
chise, either now or hereafter,

that which recently occurred
in the city of New York could
be chronicled as a fact. AT
the dinner of the Sons OF the
American Revolution, which
was attended by over 400
representative men and wo
men, a remarkable demon
stratiOn occurred. While the
orchestra was play ing one Of
our national hymns, Dixie"
a grayhaired lady, in wild
ow's weeds, entered. The
diners at once arose as did
all the spectators on the floor
and in the gallery; to wave
their handkerchiefs in an en-
thusiastic greeting to a ven
cradle but sprightly woman,
whose gentle face smiled
down upon them amid it's
tears. The lady was Mrs.
Jefferson Davis, and before
the evening had passed every
prominent guest had visited
her box to pay his or her re
spects to the widow OF the
former Confederate Presi
dent, 1t was a generous,
spontaneous, heartfelt greet
ing. If any one, 20 years

Republican State Chairman q
Holton has engaged a distin.
guished assistant in the ca IN.
paign against white suprem-
lacy in the person OF Abe r.
Middleton, colored, one OF
the most beloved and infu-
entail Republicans in North
Carolina. He arrived Sat-
urday evening and entered
on his duties at Republican
headquarters this morning.
Abe yields d power OF in.
huence in the party of which
he is one Of the leaders, and
down in the third congress
sional district, where he re
sides, he is looked upon as a
sort of demigod. So com
plete is his domination OF
the Republican party in that
section that it has been as
serted that he carried the
district in his vest pocket.
Often, in times of dire dis
tress, white skinned Republi
cans have turned to the ebon
hued demigod in the third
district, and Abe has never
failed to stretch forth the
hand of brotherhood and
render such assistance as
was in his power. OF course
he was rewarded for his self
sacrifice and party fealty. In
addition to occupying a high
seat in the councils of the
party, he has been given Of
fees ofremuneration. When
the fusion element captured
the legislature of 1895 he
was made assistant door
keeper of the house OF repre-
sentatives, and in a right
lordly manner did he guard
the way Of ingress and egress
to and from the lower house
of the general assembly. 1t
is a matter OF history how,
on one occasion when the fu
sionists were exceedingly anx
ious to rush some legislation
through, Abe attempted to
arrest two Democratic mem
bers of the bo6y to prevent
a quorum being broken. He
would have Iald violent hands
on the Democrats and forced
them to remain in the hall
of the house. When the same
crowd went back to Raleigh
in 1897 70 legislate Abe serv
ices we're remembered and he
was again made assistant
doorkeeper OF the house OF
representa- tives.
In addition to these hon
ors, Abe was for a while a
member of the Republican
state executive committee at
large, being displayed only
at the late state convention
Of that party. 1t was prob
ably to provide for a more
general distribution Of hon
o q that he was left off the
state committee and given
an important position with
Chairman HOlton at head
quarters.
1t is not stated what part
of the campaign work Abe
will direct, though it is prob
able that to him will be in
trusted the work of writing
and sending out litera ture to
prove that there has never
been negro domination in
North Cal olina, and that
there is now no danger of
such a condition.

xR. DRYAS's VIEWS.

Instead oi regarding the
rerent assault upon constitu-
tional government, the over
throw Of American principles,
as a matter OF destiny, we
may rather consider it as the
last plague, the Staying Of
the first-born, which will end
the bondage OF the Ameri.
can people and bring deliver
ance from the Pharaohs who
are enthroning Mammon
and debasing mankind"
This is William j. Bryan's
summing up Of the situation
in American politics. 1t is
the conclusion of an article
entitled THE Issue IN the
Presidential Campaign"
In the June number of the
North American Review the
candidate for the democratic
nomination for President out
lines his plan Of campaign,
which he indicates will be
made on the issues Of bimet-
alism, anti-trusts and anti
Imperialism, this being the
order in which he considers
the question. He says
"Tbe issue presented in the
campaign OF 1900 in the is
sue between plutocracy and
democracy. All the questions
under discussion will, in their
last analysis, disclose the
conflict between the dollar
and the mana conflict as
old as the human race. and
one which will continue as
long rs the human race en-
dures.
That the Nobraskan has
not wavered in his allegiance
to the cause Of silver is un-
mistakablv shown IN his re.

es are equally great that he
regards the demand for arbi-
tration as an impertinence,

A Fusion ONCE. Holder Comes Out
From Among Them.
Jews and Observer.

Recently the News and OBJ
server has had the pleasure
OF announcing the acqnisi-
tion OF many leading Repub.
licans and Populists to the
ranks OF the advoca tea Of
White Supremacy, but to
none has it more gladly ex-
tended the right hand of fel-
lowship than it now does to
Mr.. Jno. F. Newsom, the
present clerk Of Hertford
county Superior Court. M.
Newsom was in Raleigh in
1897 as a Fusion member Of
the Senate, and was one of
the strongest and most in.
fiuential Populist members
of that body. Two years
ago he was elected clerk OF
Hertford county by Fusion
votes.
Now he announces that he
will affiliate with the Demo.
cratic party in the approach
ing campaign. For t h i g
change, Mr.. Newsom gives
good reasons-such reasons
as must appeal strongly to
every honest Populist or Re-
publican in the State. He
writes as follows:
Editor News and Observer:
| take this method OF an
nouncing my intention to al.
filiate with the Democratic
party in the approaching
campaign. | do so, because
the principles advocated by
the Populist and Democratic
parties are virtually the
same, and the more speedy
way of accomplishing the
aims and purposes OF each
party is to recognize their
oneness-bury all differences,
and unite their forces. | do
90 for the further reason that
so long as radical questions
overshadow all Others, polit-
ical issues OF Importance can
not be pleasantly and salts
factorily determined.
Believing that the adop-
ton of the constitutional
amendment will elimina to the
race question and create a
better feeling between the
races-encOnruge the invest
nent OF capital and promote
peace and prosperity in our
beloved State, | shall vote
for it, also for all the nomi-
nees of the Democratic party.
With the light before me this
seems the proper course for
all thinking and patriotic
citizens who heretofore affil.
lated with the Populist par
ty to pursue, and in so doing
| see no cause for regret or
need for apology, as our rprin
ciples are the same.
Respectfully,
