But there is no necessity of discussing
this question further. Because the

The constitution of Mississippi contains

Furniture Factories.

A recent issue of Charity and Children
contained the following editorial oE the
above subject:
I'VE have again and again urged upon
our people the Importance Of establishing
small factories for working up the timber
We are now selling in foreign markets at
little or no profit. High Point stands
ready always to back our argument with

struggling railroad station; today it is a
fine town of nearly five thousand people
with twenty odd furniture factories. all

that every single one of these factories

chairs. chiffoners. veneerng. sash. doors
and blinds. &c. They are all highly pros
porous and the stock is not for sale. The
beauty about these smaller industries is
that they can be started on a capital that
is within easy reach of the ordinary
North Carolina town. From two to i've
thousand dollars is amply sufficient to be
gin on. Another thing is, that, like the
savings bank. they benefit people on small
means, and do not appeal to men already
rich. This is a matter of great moment
The third and best feature is one that we
have often mentioned before, and that
is that neither children nor women can

SY, sLANDERING WHITE

FIVE thousand dollars damages for refus-
ing to serve Congressman George III.
White, of North Carolina and himself
with dinner. Billows claims that Nc
Carthy offered to serve them elsewhere
than in the general dining room but they
demanded an equal footing with white
persons and left the place.
This is the same negro Congressman
who, in speech in Congress few days
ago, sought TO excuse the rapes commit
ted by brutal negroes. by a base slander
upon the white men of the South.
This is the same negro Congressman
who lin 1898 attended a circus with his
wife and, her friends in Tarboro, and
brazenly marched up and took seats with
the white people. When the managers OK
the circus saw these negroes in the seats
reserved for white folks, they told him
he must move with his party to the
seats for colored folks. This made the
dusky Congressman very wrathy, and
in high dlidgeon he got up and marched
out of the tent. declaring that If he
could not sit with the white folks he
weuld not stay at all.
White is the type OF the negro Office
holders elevated by the Re-pop-li-cans.
Is it any wonder that the white people
are determined to end negro officeholding
in North Carolina?

The negro White, Of the Second dis

Negroes like White who insist on sitting
