inches. The l00-yard dash figures of
nine and four-fifths seconds We're

colleges, academies and preparatory
schools in the east were represented in

Illetes We're entered.

A RUSH 1O CAPE NONE
First Of the Steamers Bound For
Gold Fields Leaves Seattle
Today.
Nearly 5000 Passengers Booked for
Passage During the Month
Of May.
twenty-five Steamships Scheduled
to Depart in the Next Thirty
Days.

Seattle, Wash, April S0.-Beginning
today with the sailing of the steamer
Jeanne, of the Pacific Steam Whaling
Company, the great rush for the Cape
Nome gold fields will be on for the sea-
son.
The twenty-five steamers that viii.
leave here for Cape Nome during May
have booked 5,SSS passengers and 25,-
2a5 tons of freight for their fast sail
ings, leaving less than 200 tickets avail
able for May passages by steam. Sail
ing craft are leaving this port at the
rate of two a day, and have been doing
SO forthe last week.
Tho Jeanne. first to sail will take
eighty passengers and 400 tons OF
freight from this port and expects to
be one of the first to reach Nome when
the obtsructing ice has broken.
For several weeks people have been
arriving here by the hundreds to get
ready To make the northward trip, and
have filled all the hotels TO such an ex-
tent that it has been difficult for tran
sient travellers to get accommodations.
the steamship offices have been
crowded with applications for berths
and freight room, and many of the
companies have been refusing passen-
gers.
OF the twenty-five steamships that
are scheduled tolcaNe here for Nome in
May two promise TO get away on the
first, seven on the 10Th, three on the
18th, one on the 17th two on the 18th
five or the Goth, one on the oath. Two on
THE 10Th, one on the S0th and one on this
3lst.
The vessels to sail on the Goth have
booked 1857 passengers and 1900 tons
of general merchandise. This probably
will be the liveliest day Of the year, as
several vessels will also leave that day
for Skaguay.
Taking the average charge OF 800 pei
passenger and $40 ton for freight, il

WHY GEORGIA VOTED 1T DOWN

Only last fall the Legislature of
Georgia voted down by an over
whelming majority a proposition
to submit a constitutional amend
ment similar to the one passed by
the last Legislature of this State.
Why did Georgia vote down the
DISTINGUISHING scheme? The Geor-
gia Legislature took the position
hrst-that it was unconstitutional,
second that it was unjust, danger
GUS, and unnecessary. If it was I'M
necessary in Georgia, how can it be
necessary in North Carolina? In
Georgia the percentage of colored
population is fifty per cent. greater
than it is in North Carolina. In
Georgia there are only few moro
white voters than there are colored
voters in the whole State. In North
Carolina there are more than two
white voters for every negro voter
The Georgia Legislature took the
position that the brave, intelligent
and progressive Anglo-SaxOn race
could never be in danger of negro
domination where the whites were
even In slight majority. The DO
sltion OF Simmons and his ballot
box stutting machine in this State
Is that two brave, intelligent and
progressive white men, owning
more than ten times the wealth.
are In danger of being dominated
by one poor, ignorant and inferior
negro. THE CAUCASIAN is frank to
say, as 1t has said a hundred times
that 1t would be better for North
Carolina and the whole South if
there was not negro voter In it.
Indeed, we would support any Just
or constitutional scheme that would
remove this evil from the politics
OF the South, and in doing it we
would support that which would be-
best for both the white and colored
races. That has been our position
in the past and it is our position
now. II this proposed amendment
would accomplish that we would
support it. Mr.. Simmons and his
machine knows that it will not
and This is why they are afraid OF
free speech and argument.

Senator CafYery's son is the can
didate Of the Independent Demo
Gratis, Populists and Republicans
for governor of Louisiana, and from
all accounts given by the press dis
patches from that State, they are
having a very exciting campaign
indeed, which has already resulted
in a great deal of bitterness, per-
sonal and political arrangements.
1t will be remem bered that in
Louisiana the constitution confers
suffrage by inheritance, just as
proposed In North Carolina, yet,
Notwithstanding the fact that the
"white supremacy" crowd are in
power in that State, and the consti-
tuition limits the right Of suffrage,
yet the old, old cry Of "nigger" is
still prominent feature, and the
resort to ballot-box stuffing is
maintained to keep the "white SUI
premacy" party in control.
Negro suffrage is greatly restric-
ted in Louisiana, yet the cry is still
raised to prevent a break in the
ranks OF the Democratic party of
that state, and it would be raised
in North Carolina even with the
adoption OF the pending amend
ment, for there would still be forty
or fifty thousand negroes who could
vote.
Senator Gallery Is now in Louis
lana making speeches in behalf of
his son and we make the following
extract from the Press Dispatch:
SENATOR Gallery denounced the
Governors blind venom and par
tison hate, gave him the lie direct
declared him cOiner Of false and
malignant charges, enjoying mo-
nopoly of the ballOt-box stuf1ing
crowd, and observed that Fo ter
has twice enjoyed the office Of gov
ernor of louisiana without being
once elected"
So it seems that even in louisa.
ma where the constitutional amend
ment is in operation, and where
naturally, one would suppose that
honesty, fair dealing and justice
prevail, the Senator deliberately
charges the present government
with "enjoying the monopoly OF
tho ballot-box stufling crowd" and
the Senator further solemnly chars
es that the governor was elected
twice by fraud.
IL the Constitutional amendment
does not remove fraud, corruption
and dishonesty in the State of Lou
isiana, will it remove these great
evils in North Carolina?
Let the great, honest plain PEG
ple," as Abe Lincoln called them
consider soberlY and earnestly this
important question when they vote
to disfrauchise thousands of good
honest, true, noble and brave whit
men of North Carolina.
