DISAGREEMENT ON ISSUE.

Shall the National Campaign be on the
Race Question
Raleigh Times Visitor.
Whether or not the race question
shall be made an issue In the No
vember election in North Carolina
seems to have suddenly sprung to
the front as matter on which there
is serious disagreement. The News
& Observer, Charlotte News, Wilson
News, K,nston Free Press and other
pape, are declaring that vote for
Mckinley is q vote for negro rule.
The Newberne Journal and sever
al other papers have been quick to
deuounce conducting the eampaign
on this issue. Among the latter is the
Greensboro Telegram, which says:
"Our Raleigh correspondent say'
that there will be an attempt to draw
the color line in the national cleo
ton in North Carolina. This appears
to us to be mighty small business
We do not think that Mr.. Brya1
would like to have this held mp t.
North Carolinlans as the chief rea
son why they should vote for him
White supremacy was real and sc
rlous issue, and the only one in tn
S;ate election. Don't make 1t q faro
in the approaching contest"
Then if the religious press dos
t not coma out against such iawles
:. ness as red shirts etc., then their p'
y psrs should be burned in every hou'
where there is q freeman. 1t the r

There is a large class Of citizens

negro question, go that good men
can speak and vote as they please,
unmolested. And since this class OF
cit;zans have recently learned that
the leaders of the D -mocratlc party
would stoop to blood shed, anarc ny,
os.rscism and calling good white men
and women-Christian men and NO.
men-negroes and dogs-all in order
to gain power-they will seek a par

they will not 60 with any. God vii
not suffer them longer to keep suct
company and wink at such hellisl
crimes, unless Christianity is delu

to follow, unless men have ces sed t.

Mr.. Jno. d. Kerr, Esq, Board Of
County Canvassers of elections of

In the court house, and after throw

Board could conceive of, We
beat them $50 votes. IF we could
have had our rights and they had
counted the votes that were ours, we
would have beaten them 1900 votes
beyond doubt.
In North Clinton township where
we cast 200 votes, the registrar and
judges only counted us about 1875
votes, and we were treated about as
badly in South Clinton township.

had big majority thrown out alto

We run ahead of the democrats,
only about 500 votes two years ago,
and now on the End day of August
in this year of grace 1900, we licked
them by $50 votes, after having all
