OBJECT TO MORE DELAY.
Mount Pleasant Citizens Want Six
tcenth Street Extended.

The regular meeting of the Mount
last night at the Hotel Stratford. The
standing committees for the ensuing year
were appointed at the close of the meet
ing, which was called to order by Presi-
dent Twombly shortly after o'clock.
After the minutes of the last meeting
had been read by the secretary, the as
ISOLATION proceeded to regular business.
Considerable comment was made on the
failure of the Commissioners to proceed
with the condemnation proceedings neces-
sary to secure property for the opening
of Sixteenth Street. Some time ago. when
it was recommended that Sixteenth Street
be extended the Commissioners brought
proceedings to attain this end. Several of
the members of the association own prop
erty that will have to be condemned il
the street is extended.
Chaplin Brown, who was chairman Of
a committee that was appointed last
spring to go before the Commissioners
and ask that the street be opened, was
instructed by the association last night
to call his committee together again and
request that jury be appointed to con-
denim the property at once.
resolution calling attention to the
unsanitary conditions at Johnson School
was submitted by A. L. Leonard. who
recommended that committee be ap-
pointed to confer with the Board of Ed
ucation and remedy the existing evils.

Court of Claims, in order that all quss-
lions of law and fact necessary to their
settlement might be judicially deter
mined, 1t being considered that had the
executive department of the Government
undertaken to settle such claims in ad-
vance, many of them would ultimately
have been carried before the courts in
any event. and indefinite delays would
thereby have been occasioned. The
court, prior to it's adjournment in June
last. considered and determined substan-
TALLY all the questions involved in claims
for bounty, and referred the matter to an
auditor for detailed report.
THE work deyolving upon this office In
connection with the distribution of prize
and bounty was practically completed
some months ago. nothing remaining but
Incidental correspondence with the
courts, the Auditor for the Navy Depart
ment and individuals interested, respect
ing matters of detail.
During the last fiscal year no unfavor-
able reports have been received concern
ing the management Of the naval prison at
Mare Island. The capacity of this prison.
however, is, as shown by reports received,
insufficient to accommodate the number OF
prisoners sent to it. which has consider
ably increased. owing principally. 1t seems.
to the large naval force maintained in the
Far East. Congress has, in accordance with
the request OF the Department, appropri-
ated 5000 for charging this institution,
and that amount is thought to be enough
to increase its size sufficiently to accom-
modate In a suitable manner all the pris-
0ners that are likely to be sent there IN
der probable conditions.
The prison at Boston was found upon
my annual visit to and inspection Of the
same to be in 4 satisfactory condition, ex-
cept as to some changes that are desirable
for the sake of improved ventilation, an
appropriation for doing which necessary
work will be included in the estimates Of
the Bureau Of Yards and Docks. Recent
however, have demonstrate
ed the fact that the capacity of the prison
il insufficient. This matter will be made
the subject Of a special report, with recon-
mendation that, as can readily be done IN
der the cognizance Of the Bureau Of Yards
and Docks. the size Of the prison be iu-
creased by adapting the other wing Of the
purposes A special appropriation will,
however. be necessary to this end.
THE need of an adequate law library
for this Office is patiently affected by the
increase and development OF the navy. as
are other matters mentioned in the fore
going paragraphs, and is constantly be-
coming the more urgent as new questions
of law arise in connection with each Of the
branches in which the work of the Office
is increasing, and bring to light additional
instances in which the present equipment
is deficient. My previous recommendation
that this matter be considered and COM
mended to the Congress for favorable ac-
tion is renewed"

Leading Watauga Republican Favors
the Amendment.
(Watauga Democrat.)

AS the time draws near when we
shall cast our ballots either for or
against the proposed Amendment to
the Constitution. | would suggest that
during the intervening time that we
give the matter our closest attention.
for it is only by close and careful
study of the question that we will be
able to east an intelligent vote.
The question of the amendment is
like many others. it furnishes to the
intelligent voter abundant food for re-
Election and contemplation. He knows
that its passage will be followed by
an effect and that that effect will be
either TO the advantage or disadvant-
age of the State. or. in other words.
his vote will either help to advance
or retard the progress of the State.
With such a weighty question be-
fore the voter it becomes his duty. his
bounden duty. to devote all the time
possible to the close study and con-
sideration of this question of qucS-
tions. He should read all the avail
able literature on the subject and
should discuss it with his friends. in
fact. he should exhaust every possible
source of information open to him.
My own views and opinions in re-
gard to the amendment have been
somewhat modified upon close study
Of the question, both in regard to its
effects immediate and remote In ar
irving at our opinion we should be
guided by the star of equity and JUS
tice, always bearing in mind that the
greatest good to the greatest number
should be the aim of the suffragist
Before we commence the study OF
the question we should first of all
purge our minds of the idea that poll
tics has any place in it. for. before
we can fairly study the matter we
must consider it as Il social and moral
question.
When the nightmare of political
prejudice is once eliminated from the
question and we view it in its true
light as, a question of the welfare of
the human race. it is comparatively
an easy matter to decide.
AS for myself. | am in favor of the
Amendment because believe its pas
sage will be an everlasting benefit to
North Carolina and her people.

This Year.

To the Editor: | am frequently
asked as to the propriety of adopting
the Amendment to the Constitution.

ton can be asked by a white man. |
am surprised that intelligent negroes
who have an interest in the welfare
of the State should ask such a queS-
ton in the light thrown upon it by
the negro vote for thirty years. When
the proposition was before the Con-
gress OF the United States to put the
burden of negro suffrage upon the
people of the South, | appealed to the
great Republican leader, Hon. Thad.
Stevens, who was then in Congress.
not to crush the South with this UNI
bearable burden. | told him of the
political ignorance of the negro; of
his utter incapacity for self-govern-
ment and that the blow would fall
not alone upon the South but at the
civilization of the age. | laid the pic
ture of the Negroes political ignorance
before him. that he might have light
and walk in the light if he desired to
do so. |. of course. might have as

RECORD OF ADAMS
He Dragged of His Vote For
Negro Legislators.
As to the fusionist Candidates For Governor,
Il is a Choice Between Diluted lnhdelity
and UnduIerated Imbecility

The nomination of Judge Adams by the
Republicans for Governor suggest to the
white men of Caswel negro picnic part
ty or colored camp-meeting at o'clock
of sultry summer noon and indicates
that he is the same old perambulating
niger tank who anchored himself along
many times with the frowsy coons of Cas-
we'll. Let us examine the record of this
man when he lived in Caswell and whom
the Republican party of North Carolina
assumes to make their Chief Execu-
tive.
Judge Adams said in a speech in 1890
when he was candidate for clerk, that
white men of Caswell were so mean.
unscrupulCus and durty that vultures had
gotten the scent had ceased to soar. and
the man in the moon puked on every
cleaning star that shone upon the be-
foulded beds of rotten degrading white
men of Caswell.
Again in 1894 when he and his niger
luck were in all their glory. he went to
the polls and exclaimed as follows: "All
you white people come and see me vote
for negroes" And this he did and at
that election a negro was elected to the
Legislature, TO represent this good old
county. In his campaign for Congress he
outranked Ananas. and fled from white
citizens of Caswell like bottle fed kid
with a blistered basement. A shame that
a great State like North Carolina takes
its hand from the sword hilt tC put this
miserable parody of Gods at it's head,
surely the end Of glory must be near.
The most vain glorious wash bu1kler
that ever shrieked for canned blood is
preferable to North Carolina whites than
this tear-jug who when cuffed by Africans
ask to be licked by Anglo Saxons. White
men of North Carolina who have written
history with lead join with the Fifth dis
trict and again if necessary kick the bus
tie of this sarcastic very elegant short
horse negro entertainer Adams through
his belly blood and vote for Aycock a
good man, what else can he said of him.
AS to the Fusicnst candidates for Gov
ernor IN one year are treated to a SEN
sational assault on Jonah in the other
you are given a case of the jerks and Of
the two it is choice between diluted
infidelity and an adulterated tmbseility.
Small wonder that intelligence of such
great State is Of common if there is
not a red hot hell somewhere fatal mis-
take has been made in ordering the uni
verse,
