THE NEGRo's FOOL FRIENDS.

A correspondent of the New York
Times, signing himself Jack Thorne,"
doesn't like little bit the way things
are going in the South, so far as the
negro is concerned. Touching the ne
gro Robert Charles, who shot down
several policemen and citizens in the
streets of New Orleans, he says:
Looking over that eventfu tragedy I
can see but one hero-one man-and that
was Robert Charles. If this calm nervy
deliberate black man, facing certain and
ignominious death and yet using his rlfe
with such deadly effect, is not hero,
then let the names of the martyrs OF the
Alamo be erased from the page OF MS
tory. One hundred and fifty negroes like
Robert Charles, and armed as ne was,
would have brought that mob TO It's
senses When we consider that every
peaceable means has been exhausted by
the Southern negro to obtain and enjoy
his lust rights in the South, that brave
act OF Robert Charles points new solu-
ton of the race problem. The Southern
white does not love death so we'll when
it comes to tasting of it himself, and the
negro's war record is ample proof that
he can die like man.
David, the shepherd boy, in his lament
over Saul and Jonathan, who fell in bat
tie against the tantalizing Philistine, coun
seled Israel to teach the children the use
of the bow. The negro child should be
taught that self-defense is as essential,
as obligatory as self-respect, and the
use of the rifle as the alphabet. The
tyranny of kings in centuries past has
bred anarchy and put into the world
hcrdes CT fanatics who feel it their duty
to kill monarchs, good or bad. Every
Southern white, high and low, is in his
own estimation, a monarch who must
have a wcrshippsr. and ninety nine one
hundredths of all race troubles are due to
the negro's refusal to acknowledge the
superiority of a being whose conduct
and department belle the boast.
THE Southern whites are hewing out
their cwn sepulchres by fostering and
breeding anarchy in the breatss of the
oppressed. We are anxious for China to
accept our civilization, but will it i'm
prove her morally? Will railroads, tele-
graphs, telephones, steam engines, &C.,
and even Christian religion as we prac-
tice it, make the Celestial any better
The South has all these things-it's full
of Gospel the churches are we'll attended
yet these hell-raisings are often led by
protesting Christians-even ministers OF
the Gospel
All of which proves what we've been
saying all along: The negro's worst
enemy is his fool friends. 1t is just
such tommyrot as the above that has
always got him into trouble. Fortu'
nately he's too wise to give heed tc
such braying.
Verify he was a wise man that
prayed, Lord deliver me from my
fool friends, 1 can take care of my
enemies"

long and as Historically as he pfeases
about 1.-THE necessity of preserving the
gold standard" But he and his party
will not be allowed to evade the great
est issue of this campaign, nor can they
afford to ignore it after Mr.. Bryans ar
raignment of their policy in his Indian
apolis speech. They may make every
effort to obscure the issue of imperialism
and to drag the money question to the
front as the matter of paramount impor
lance. But the people will not be de-
ceived. They will find nothing in Mr..
Bryan's speech to indicate that he re-
CARDS the currency issue as of vital i'm
portance at present, whereas they will
be convinced after reading this speech
that Imperialism is the issue which, in
his opinion, presses for immediate set
Element, and upon the settlement of which
the welfare of the country depends.

THE HISTORY OF ALAMANCE,

A new and important contribution
to North Carolina history has been
made by Miss Sallie w. Stockard, a
graduate of the University of North
Carolina, whose latest work, "The
History of Alamance," has just been
issued from the press. 1t is book
of real interest and historical value,
in whose preparation much labor was
expended and wide research employ
ed. 1t is worthy of a place in every
library in the State.
The people of North Carolina should
encourage such efforts as Miss Stock
ard is making to perpetuate the glor-
ious history of the State and bring it
to the attention of the world. They
must do so or our history will never
Ice written
1.-The History of Alamance" ought to
find a ready sale in North Carolina,
and in the whole United States for
that matter, because it gives the his
tory of the War of the Regulators,
which was the beginning of the Amer
lean Revolution. Here also that great
Revolution saw the beginning of it's
enid when Light Horse Harry Lee put
to fight Tarleton and CORVALLIS.
They were on their march of retreat
when they met and fought and again
fed from the Americans at Guilford
court house.
AS the author so well says in her
Introductory, our young people should
know the price of their liberty and
our old people must not forget, for
God deeds dying tongueless
Slaughter thousand waiting Oh that.
Alamance has vitality affected the
history of North Carolina not only in
those earlier days but all along the
march of time.
Cotton manufacturing in the South
had its beginning in an Alamance cot
ton mill, when the energy and brains
of Edwin M. Holt began to make raw
cotton into cloth. A good account OF
that beginning is given in the book.
1.-The History of Alamance' also con-
tains family sketches which are inval-
liable to the people of Alamance coun-

The Democratic party can we'll rest
content with the presentation of the issue
of Imperialism made by Mr.. Bryan in
his speech at Indianapolis yesterday. 1t
is the most complete and logical argu
ment which has yet been submitted. Mr..
Bryan's speech is long, but it is worth
reading. 1t is the ablest, most logical
and thoughtful, as we'll as the most
adroit and plausible presentation of the
question of Imperialism which has yet
been submitted to the American people.

There seems to be considerable diff
ference of opinion as to what really
did occur at Bayboro last Saturday.
The straight Democrats say that Sc
rious trouble was threatened and
they considered the presence of troops
necessary. The Fusionists, on the
contrary, have met and resolved that
there was no trouble or disorder OF
any kind, and that any man who says
there was cutters a vile and wilful
SANDER" Take the case, gentlemen

A BUGLE CALL TO AMERICANS.

Charleston News and Courier.
Such was Bryan's speech at Indianapolis
yesterday in reply to the formal notifi-
cation of his nomination for the Presi-
dency by the Democratic National con-
vention at Kansas City. Yes, we say,
"A bugle call to Americans, not a bugle
call to Democrats, or Populists, or Silver
Republicans, bimetallists or monometal-
lists, Free Traders, or Protectionists, but
"A bugle call to Americans to citizens
of the great American Republic, who still
believe in the principles of liberty on
which this Government was founded, and
in the Constitution which was adopted by
the people of the various States when
they entered into the compact of Union.
The keynote of Mr.. Bryan's speech is
that the Republic is in danger, that the
liberties Of the people are threatened
