HANNA's PURCHASED LIAR.

Butler is in Washington lying about
the people of his State. He tells the
Washington Post that his gang had a
majority of 10000 in the State but
that the Democrats reversed it into
a majority of $4,000 for their ticket,
and that they will steal it for Bryan
if they want to. The Post adds to
that declaration:
1.-The above answer was dictated by
Senator Butler, who stated that that
was all he wanted to say about the
North Carolina situation now. He
talked in private very emphatically
about the Tar Heel Democracy, and
made it plain that he intended to give
them hail Columbia all through the
presidential campaign"
Exactly. Butler is hired by Hanna
to go through the country lying
about the people of his State. 1t is
to manufacture a tissue of lies to re-
tail in States where Hanna wants
help that Butler is sending Radicals
over the State He knows that his
gang was defeated IdlTIy dHu HoHeS.-
ly, but he could not carry out his trade
with Hanna unless like the dirty bird
that he is he was willing to befoul his
own nest. Butler sold out to Hanna
in Washington early last Spring and
would have knitted Bryan if he had
succeeded in North Carolina. He is
inventing his lies about the elections
in North Carolina now as an excuse
for his support of Mckinley in the
way that will hurt Bryan most. His
lies are made the preteX for his infa-
NOUS conduct. The are mere pretexts
for his sale of himself to Hanna.

A Senatorial Suggestion.

To the Editor: What is the necess!
of Senatorial primaries to ceCice who
shall be Senator? The most ardent friends
of those gentlemen whose names have
been prominently mentioned for this po-
sition; if they will use but ordinary dis
cernment will see at glance that the
solid mass of Democratic voters will sup
port but one man, and that man is North
Carolina's great statesman and patriot,
the matchless organizer and leader of his
party, II. M. Simmons. When three years
ago he was made chairman of the Demo-
cratic State Executive committee, he
found the "fusionist" in absolute control
his own party depressed and disheartened
by recent overwhelming defeat, but with
untiring energy and eminent ability, he
soon reorganized and enthuzed the De-
mocracy and won a victory, the most
notable in the political annals of this
State. And again in the recent great
struggle for White Mans Rule it was his
consummate skill and tactics that directed
campaign so as to bring glorious sue
cess to his party, and forever put at rest
the fear of negro domination" He that
wins his spurs in such a field deserves
his knighthood. 1t has been suggested
that Carr, Waddell and Jarvis emulate
the patriotism of Cunningham, Justice and
Davidson in the gubernatorial nomination
race with Aycock. But whether they do
or not the eternal gratitude of the rank
and file of the Democratic party will COM
pei them to cast their vote for Sim

Death of Prof. P. G. Shaw.

In Manly, N. c., August 9, 1900, Prof
p. C. Shaw passed to his eternal reward
The deceased had nearly reached ms
seventy fourth birthday. For about
twenty-five years he was engaged IN
school teaching After preparing his
children for college, he retired to private
life. For many years he had served as
ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church.
He was a true, useful man, and will be
greatly missed. The following children
were present at his burial:
Mrs. w. O. RCOeson, Raleigh; MISS
Sarah NJ. Shaw, Manly; Mrs. J. W. Phil
lips and Mrs. R. n. Page, Biscoe; Judge
T. j. Shaw, Greensboro, and Rev. A. r.

Der of the same was Miss Cornelia Shaw,
now in Europe. During the funeral SER
vice Judge Shaw was too unwell to enter
the church, he remained outside seated
On the church steps. Returning to
Manly he went Immediately to bed and
has been quite sick ever since. The
Judge will not be able to hold court in
Union county next week. His physicians
consider his symptoms more favorable
today, and hope of recovery is enter
tanned.

THE ATMOSPHERE CLEARING UP

We are now at the period of the
campaign when a clearing up of the
atmosphere is necessary before the
lines are drawn for the great fight on
the issues presented by the Kansas
City platform.
In 1896 the national campaign was
injured and retarded because in many
States there were men prominent in
the party councils who were at heart,
and sometimes openly, against the
Democratic nominees. In some States
these were not eliminated at all until
they had helped elect Mckinley.
There are some newspapers in North
Carolina, posing as Democratic, that
are either by agreement or by chance
(but equally as earnestly working to
help the Republicans carry the State
for Mckinley. They know-and
everybody knows-that Mckinley has
no chance to carry the State unless
all the negroes are voted for him.
The program is for these so-cal!ed
Democratic papers to say peace
peace, peace while Prltchard and
Duncan organize the :icg. ors, and
Butler organizes the few Populsts
who are left If the Mckinley papers
could lull the Democrats into a sense
of security, this conspiracy might be
carried out, at least to the extent of
giving the Republicans two or three
Congressional districts.
"Forewarned Isl forearmed." This
paper has learned the programme
that a certain political railroad Off
cial, who voted for Mckinley and lost
$3.50 betting on his election in 1896,
and his henchmen in the three par
ties have agreed upon, and it warns
the true Democrats in the State that
if they permit the McKinleyites to
choose the issues upon which the ma
tional campaign will be fought, they
will walk into the trap which has
been prepared for them.
North Carolina is alright for Pryan
if the campaign is conducted Upon
the lines that Democrats lay down.
If McKinleyites are to make the IS
sues then three Congressional districts
may be lost. 1t is never safe to fight
on the issue that your opponent Sc
| lects.
What we want in North Carolina be-
fore the campaign really opens is a
clearing up of the political atmos-
phere. Let the opponents of Bryan
and Stevenson-for they are one and
Observation-Disclosures they are ao-call-
ed Democrats or so-called Populists,
state where they stand. Democracy
cannot be harmed by any open enemy.
The only injury it can sustain is from
secret foes. If during this month the
McKinleyites under cover can be
forced into the open, Bryan and Stew
enson will carry the State by an UNI
precedented big majority. When the
lines are drawn and friends and foes
are known-then all the rest is easy.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS,
WE NOMINATE s. WITTKOWSKI FOR
CHAIRMAN.
Charlotte News.

Charlotte News.
We see it stated that it is proposed
to hold a convention of business men
here or at some other point in the State
in order that they may proclaim the
close relations between political and eco
nomic questions and their consequent
right to declare themselves accordingly
and to further enter their protests against
the use of the word negro" in the COM
ing campaign.
We sincerely hope that some one most
interested will take the lead in this
matter at once. We would like to have
a full hist of all who would like to at
tend such a convention. If we mistake
not it's delegates would be just about the
same as those who attended the Palmer
and Buckner meeting at Greensboro four
years ago, most of whom afterwards
voted for Mckinley.
Such meeting might catch few in
nocent and unsuspecting Democrats, but
in our opinion, poll of it would show
a gathering of men who are for Mckinley
straight.
Now let us have this meeting by all
means so that the cloak may be thrown
off and that we may know who is for
us and who is against us. Who will
take the lead?

For Elector of the Fourth District.

We understand that the name of Mr..
Alex j. Field, of Wake, will be present
ed to the Fourth district convention
for the position of electOr. AS native OF
old Warren and for several years an
adopted son of Granville, we doubt not
Vance will feel very close to Mr.. Field
if she has no candidate of her own. There
is no pay attached to the office it is true,
yet it is a high honor to be conferred
and if Mr.. Field should be chosen we
are sure he would prove himself in ev-
cry way worthy of it and make vigorous
and effective canvass of the district in be-
half of the Democratic ticket. His speech
es in this county ON the amendment
made many friends for himself and the
cause he so ably championed.

FLOGGING IN A MILL.
n. G.. Baptist.

n. c. Baptist
Last week the superintendent of the
silk mill here was in court under indict-
ment for whipping one of the boys in the
mill. Since this mill was established
whipping has been in vogue. On the
stand superintendent Thurston admitted
that if he were not permitted to continue
the present system they would as well
close up the mill. Let it be remembered
that this mill is owned by Northern men,
superintendent by a negro and operated
exclusively by negro boys and girls. How
the Southern people were maligned, abus-
ed, misrepresented and the maledictions
of Heaven called down on them for whip
ping a negro slave when he needed it!

NO CONSCIENCE ABOUT 1T.
Savannah Morning News.

A New England Democrat, we'll known
in judicial business and social circles,
talking over the political situation during
a recent visit to this city, made some
interesting observations. There is no
promise, he said, that New England
Republican will not make and no state
ment that be will hesitate to Endorse, if
by doing so he can help the Republican
party and injure the Democratic party.
No matter how respectable in private life
or how honorable in business affairs he
may be, the New England Republican can
not be relied on in politics He feels
that it is his sacred and bounden duty to
help beat the Democrats, for if Republi-
canism is not bread and butter to him,
it is to some OF his relatives or friends.
He believes that the means are justified
by the end, and never lets his conscience
trouble him when he is dealing with pol
iticS.

TO CARRY NEW YORK.

The contest in New York over the
nomination for Governor assumes ma
tional proportions for the reason that
a strong State ticket in the Empire
State will greatly aid in carrying the
thirty-siX electoral votes for Bryan
and Stevenson whereas a weak State
ticket would probably cause the loss
of the State. The nomination Of
Coler would insure the State to the
Democratic party and we regret to see
the serious opposition to him. The
Washington Post of yesterday sug-
gests another candidate. 1t says:
'''rhere is gossip about Saratoga
these days that Col. Dan. Lamont,
Secretary of War under President
Cleveland's second administration,
may be nominated by the Democrats
for Governor of New York State. 1t
is urged that Col. Lamont would
be acceptable to Tammany, and also
to the Democracy from up the State,
and therefore would be in more ways
than one a formidable candidate"
The whole country will hope that
wisdom and harmony will prevail in
the councils of the Democracy of the
Empire State and that it will take its
old place at the Democratic table.
