TAYLORISM IN THIS STATE.

All of this incendiary talk of Linney
and White, Butler and Pritchard-Man-
ley is now out of the State-has one EVIL
dent purpose. 1t is deliberate plan
to goad the white men of North Carolina
to acts of violence. They would laugh
in ghoulish glee if the Democrats We're
to resort to force, for they would at
once appeal to the authorities at Wash
ington for Federal aid. The outrages
committed by Taylor at Frankfort. Ky.
show the desperate resolve of these men
to hold the reinS of power at any cost.
They are all slike-inSpired by the same
lust for office and personal gain-and 1t
is easy to prophesy their methods. But
they will find the Democrats of North
Carolina as determined to keep cool and
obey the laws as their brethren in Ken
lucky They will also find them equally
determined TO maintain their rights in
the face Of militarism or the velled
threats Of Federal Interference.
The white people of North Carolina
can afford to treat with silent contempt
such foul ISLANDERS as have been recently
heaped upon them by Pritchard, White,
Butler and Linney. The day of reckon
ing will soon be at hand. when this crew
will be swept from power and from every
opportunity for further mischief. 1t will
be well for these constituencies office
seekers to remember one thing, however.
There is a line beyond which it will be
unsafe for any man to go. 1t Is too
often forgotten that not the man VINO
first uses force. but the man who first
makes force necessary, strikes the first
blow.
The infamous acts of Taylor, the tool
of the Louisville and Nashville Rail
road, have caused the backbone of
every white man in North Carolina
to stiffem with the unalterable
determination to protect his fireside.
Imagine Russell-and he is fully capable
of anything that does not jeOpardize his
personal safety-calling out troops: de-
claring the Legislature of North Caro-
lima adjourned: ordering the Legislators
to meet in Mitchell county or at Shelton
Laurel in Madison county; declaring
that he will use bodily force to carry
these legislators there if they object. and
denying the writ of habeas corpus. This
i THE LOGICAL OUTCOME OF
BTTLERISM, PRITCHA RDiSM,
NEGRONSM. 1t is high time that the
few deluded white men left in the party
of miscegenation should stop living in
a fools paradise even for the sake of
the loaves and fishes. and come back to
their own people.

Soldiers Dedicated ON Battle
i$s zzSSgS2x field of Antietam.

Hagerstown, Md, May 31.-An-
other link in the chain which binds
together the once warning factions
of the north and south was forged
Wednesday by the dedication of a
monument erected to the memory of
men who wore the gray as we'll as
those who wore the blue and who
died in mortal combat on the bloody
field of Antietam. The event, which
is probably without a parallel in the
history of the world, was graced by
the presence of the president of the
United States, accompanied by many
members of his cabinet; score or
more of United States senator's, thrice
as many members of congress, the
governor of Maryland and prominent
men, from all parts of the country.
The dedicatory ceremonies were
opened by Col. Benjamin E. Tay-
lor, who introduced Gen. Henry Kyd
Douglass, director of ceremonies.
Prayer was offered by Rev. B. F. Clark
son, who was followed by Gov. John
Walter Smith in an address of welcome.
Col. Taylor, as president of the An
tietam battlefield commission of Mary
land, then presented the monument to
the national government, and Hon.
Elihu Root, secretary of war, in brief
address accepted it on behalf of the
United States. Then followed short
addresses, mainly of a reminiscent
character, by Gems. John B. Brooke,
James Longstreet, Orlando B. Wilcox,
). E. Duryee, Senators Foraker, Bur-
rows. Daniel and others who were
prominent on the opposing sides in the
great struggle. These were followed in
turn by Hon. George B. Mcclellan, of
New York, and other members of the
United States senate and house of rep
resentatives. This concluded, the band
played Hail to the Chief" and Gen.
Douglass introduced President McKin>
ley, who delivered the address of the
day.
Manila, May 31.-Memorial day was
observed here as a general holiday:
Military ceremonies were held at the

IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Enemy Suffers In Numerous Minor
Engagements-Two Companies
OF FilipinOs Surrender.

Manila. May 2s.-Scouting. small en-
gagements and the capture Of arms
and prisoners continue daily in north
ern Luzon. Last weeks operations by
the Ninth, Twelfth, Thirty-third, Thir-
ty-fouNh and Thirty-sixth regiments
resulted in the killing of 46 of the enc
my, the taking of $50 prisoners and the
capture of 300 rifles and quantity of
ammunition.
Washington, May, 20. - The war de-
partment has received the following
cablegram from Gen. Macarthur, at
Manila, dated Monday:
Three officers, S. men. with 46 rifles, sur
rendered Internationally at Guyapo yes
terday. Three officers, 46 men with SIS rifles
surrendered Internationally to-day at
Tarlac. These spontaneous surrenders are
very encouraging
Gen. Corbin said that Gen. MacAr-
thurs dispatch shows that the situa-
ton in the Philippines is improving.
The present policy of the army, he
said, is to disarm and not to kill the
Filipino insurgents. and that object
is being facilitated by the action of
the Filipino captains in getting their
men together and surrendering in a
body. In such cases the men get re-
ceipts for their arms and ammqni-
ton. There is no longer any organ
lied resistance, he says, and the only
trouble comes from bands of guer-
rillas who swoop down on the unpro-
tected natives, steal all they can lay
their hands on and run off with their
booty before the troops can reach
them. The marauders receive no
mercy from the troops, and are shot
down whenever caught looting their
terrorized countrymen.
Manila, May 31.-On Tuesday night
the insurgents reached San Miguel de
Mayumo, province of Bulacan, Luzon,
garrisoned by three companies of the
Ihirty-ffth volunteer infantry. They
swept through the surprised town,
shooting right and left, killing five
Americans and wounding seven. Capt.
Charles D. Roberts and two privates
are missing. No Filipino dead were
discovered. San Miguel de Mayumo is
only few miles from Mania.
