SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.
POPULISTS IN CHATHAM.

Chatham Record.
The rise and fall of the Populist party
in Chatham strikingly illustrates the
tickleness and uncertainty of politics and
politicians.
So powerful was the Populist party in
Chatham when it was organized, in 1892,
and for several years thereafter, that it
completely dominated the Republicans OF
the county and dictated the terms on
which they co-operated. But now, the
great bulk of the former Populists have
been captured by the Republicans, and
the tables are completely turned, for the
latter are now in absolute control and
can dictate their own terms.
In 1892 more Republicans in Chatham
voted the Populist ticket than the Repub-
lican ticket. In that year the Republican
candidate for President (Harrison) re-
ceived 727 votes and Weaver, the Populist
candidate, received 2,035 votes. The Re
publican candidate for governor (Furches)
received only 372 votes, while the Populist
candidate (Exum) received 2,240. Com
pare that vote with the vote al the last
election, when Mckinley received 2,240
votes and the Populist candidate (Barker)
received only 60 votes How are the
mighty fallen!

THE PRIMARY.
Wadesboro Messenger- Involvement.

Wadesboro Messenger Intelligencer.
Because more or less feeling was en-
gendered in the late Senatorial primary.
there are many who have leaped to the
conclusion that the system is a bad one
We are not of this number, however, but
on the contrary, are just as strongly of
the opinion as ever that the fairest way
to nominate all candidates for office is by
the popular primary. Those who criticise
the Senatorial primary overlooked the
fact that there have been scandals con-
nected with the election of Senators by
Legislatures compared with which our re-
cent little furry was as nothing Be-
sides, if Senatorial nominations are not
made in this way, the fight will simply
be transferred to the nomination of can
didates for the Legislature, fer it is Ger
tain that all candidates for legislative
nominations will be called out on that
subject when United States Senator is
to be elected.

THE CHINESE MIDDLE.

New Orleans Picayune.
1t is now announced from Pekin that
the negotiations are rapidly reaching a
settlement, and that the prospect is now
good for a final arrangement of all ques-
lions. This will be welcome news to
the business interests of this country
which are suffering seriously, owing to the
senseless chickering's of the diplomats at
Pekin. Just what has brought about this
sudden change in the outlook is not made
known, but there is a very shrewd suspi-
cion that the general disgust created by
the wholesale butcheries of helpless Chi
nese by the foreign troops, and the I'M
warranted executions of Chinese officials
by court martial sentence, has convinced
the Ministers at Pekin that they cannot
too soon put an end to the existing in
tolerable situation

A GENEROUS CONCESSION.
Springfield Republican.

The Importance now assumed by those
gold Democrats who have opposed the
Democratic party in two successive Pres
idential elections really has an amusing
side. The New York Times, imperialist
and McKinleyite, is an entertaining illus
tration of the present tendency. With
much solemnity. it magnanimously an
rounces that 1.-The Democrats VINO have
just voted for Bryan will not be blacklist
ed by those Democrats who voted against
him. This is a rare and generous conces-
sion and the Bryan Democrats-there
may be a few millions of thern-will be
humbly grateful for such considera-
ton.

State. Though very different ques-
tons, the connection between the two
at this time makes the first largely de-
pendent on the second. The people
have been promised a good four
months school in every school district
in the State. That pledge is not worth
the paper it is written on unless the
States revenue is increased IL the
State cannot tax the franchise Of the
rich corporations it created, where can
1t obtain the necessary money to give
education to the children before 1908?
In 1899 an attempt was made to I'M
pose this tax together with the prop
erty tax. The Federal courts can pre-
vent that, and this State, while having
no respect for Simonton's injunction
methods, does have respect for the de-
We do not apprehend that the State
will lose its present case before that
high tribunal if it is in full possession
of all the facts, but the delay incident
to the present method is such that
Simonton and the railroads could de-
lay the enforcement of an honest as
sessment indefinitely. When the SUI
preme court-some years in the future
shall decide that the present assess
ment was right when made, what as
surance is there that, if the Commits
sion should, five or ten years hence,
make another increase in order to do
justice, the present tactics would not
be repeated? And so on until a State
government, controlled by the tax
lodging railroads, would permit the
railroads to pay only half of just val
uation sin order to secure peace" and
mot to drive capital out of the State?"
There is but one remedy unless the
State is ready to abdicate its sovereign
function of assessing property for tax
alton, and that is to pass bill similar
to the one that passed the House i'll
1899. 1t may be wise to make certain
changes in that bill, but the principle
ought to be put into statute law. The
United States Supreme court has held
that such a tax is within the power OF
the State. 1t could not be enjoined by
Simonton or any other judge, and the
railroads could not evade the payment
of this just tax. 1t is a matter for
Statewide congratulation that Mr..
NJ Of h
and Mr.. Thompson, who championed
it on the floor, are reelected by their
constituents to continue the fight for
this just measure. There are some
who opposed it before who are now
earnestly in favor of it's passage, and
there ought not to be any doubt that
atsimiIar measure will be ratified be-
fore the foftieth day of the legislative
session. 1t may be expected, however,
that it will be fought; that the tax
dodgers will cry out that the adyo-
Gates of the franchise tax are seeking
''to drive capital out of the State, and
are making war on wealth" Such
clap-trap as that, employed by tax
dodgers and their hirelings, no longer
affects honest men who are sincerely
desirious of preserving the right
of the State to assess a railroad
as well as a farm or a horse. The Leg
islature has enough wise and patriotic
men to devise measure of taxing the
valuable franchise of quasi-public cor
porations that is in conformity to the
decisions of the highest court as well
as in keeping with the duty of justice
to all taxpayers, individual and cor
porate.

PUBLIC DRINKING.
Rural Visitor.

Rural Visitor
In Kentucky Beckham and Yerkes
met and took drink together. Elk
change.
Becl1ham was the Democratic candidate
for Governor and Yerkes the Republican
in the recent election.
We were standing near a group of we'll
dressed gentlemen in Goldsboro few
days ago when one of them remarked that
he had that day seen one of our Supe-
rior Court judges, in a first-class car
in the presence of ladies', with some COM
panions, drinking from a flask of whiskey
Such judges and Governors, will in due
time, be relegated to the ranks. No man
can drink and discharge offices of such
magnitude SO as TO meet the require
ments of this age. 1t is physical impos-
sibility, leaving the moral and church
side of the question entirely cut of con-
sideration. And when a judge gets to
the point that he can stand in the public
presence of ladies and drink from a flask
there is but a "short CUT between him
and degradation.

COULDN'T RESTORE FROM COLLAPSE.


Rockingham Anglo-Saxon.
The Charlotte Observer observes that
Congress has not since 1868 been so
heavily Republican. That's just another
of the Observers ordinary misstatements
of facts. The Fifty-fourth Congress,
elected in 1894, while the Observers idol
was President and the Democratic party
under his leadership, had only 102 Dem
ocratic members in the House to 246 Re-
publicans. The Democrats will have in
the next House, about 146 members, or an
increase of AZ over the last election when
Cleveland was at the head of the party
Dead as Mr. Bryan is, he cannot with
justice be charged with bringing the Dem
acratic party to defeat The worst that
can be fairly said against him is that
he has failed with his leanings toward
Populism, to restore the party from the
collapse to which Cleveland with his
Mugwumpism, brought it in 1894.
