ONE REASON WHY THE AMEND
TENT SHOULD BI: ADOPTED.

Great truths are stated by the Nor
Canton Hrr"H in the following:
,'Ihcrc are many reason, why we
favor the amendment and not the
least among these is the conviction
that its adoption will prove the death
Of much Of the peanut politics we
have witnessed in the State of late
years. 1t - notorious that fitness for
position has in many instances been
forced to give way to supposed avail
ability arising from conditions that
would only tester sores now healing
were they dwelt upon. The State
will run in a larger, not a smaller,
groove, a. is tinly imagined by
some, from the institution of a
smaller but more intelligent >uf-
fragc. South Carolina and MiSsis
sippi experiences are nothing to the
purpose. We are wholly unlike
either Statc-as much unlike them
a, they are unlike each other. North
Carolina has a way of her own in all
things, even TO making public office a
matter OF contract.
What the Hcrald says is not the
least of its reasons for favOring the
amendment is one of the greatest Of
those influencing the OJSerrer. Its
adoption will put an end to much of
the peanut politics with which the
state has been cur>cd-psrhaps to all
of it. In truth, we have, due to the
force of circumstances, had little real
politics in North Carolina since the
Civil War. The race issue has been
ever dominant and the white has
lined up accordingly. White men
have voted not as they in fact be-
llcvcd on finances, tariff or other
great questions, but as they felt, as
the law of srlf-prcscrvation dictated.
With the negro out of the way they
can and will so vote. True, this has
not been the result in South Carolina
and Mississippi. As our Morganton
contemporary says this is not to the
purpose. North Carolina being lone
to ITSELF Worth and fitness will
govern in nominations, and the
'aTailability" of which we have all
heard so much will not ALWAYS and
every time be the controlling in
iluencc. All these arguments in
favor of the amendment are great
ones, and when properly presented to
the people will be found potential. -

The Paper Trust.

The roDber Paper Trust. which con-
trolls nearly all the output OF the
paper mills of this country, has
steadily advanced the price of paper
for the past three months until we
are now paving about 40 per cent,
more for the newspaper upon which
the BaptiSt is printed. than we did
September 1st. This trust has a
chief cause. 2 tariff law which LAYS a
heavy import upon all paper material
imported from Canada into this
country And we are the sufferers
This unjust tariff and its robber If
spring. the Paper Trust. is taking
from the pockets OF publishers all
over America tax which has reached
the point Of heavy burden. This
tariff law is tax on intelligence.
Papers and books cost more than ever
before. On every newspaper, Bible,
HYMN Book. tract and almanac there
is an extra cost. The note paper and
envelopes OF courtship. the invita-
ton for the wedding and the black
bOrdered announcement of death all
pay tribute to this robber tariff, which
instead of enriching the government
only makes it possible for the paper
magnates of America to charge more
for their paper. How long will we
suffer? There are those who count
a word against the trusts as stone
cast against the innocent. Let these
defenders of iniquity feel the heavy
hand Of corporate greed and their
tune will change. North Carolina

Donents Of the Amendment more harm

to bring Federal troops to help the
Republicans carry the last election
did them more harm than good. The
white men of North Carolina cannot
be intimidated by threats OF Federal
Intervention. and they indignant Y
resent any limitations to that effect.

The dav has long since passed in
our beloved Southland when Federal
soldiers could make our best white
men stand aside at the ballot box and
give place to ignorant negroes. Our
older people bitterly remember such
scenes during the terrible days Of Re
publican Reconstruction. and they are
determined that they shall never oc-
cur again.
