A Few of Bryan's Forceful
UtteranceS.

A republic can have no sub
jects.
Rights never conflict, duties
never clash.
Love, not force, was the wea-
pom of the Nazarene.
A war Of conquest is as un-
wise as it is unrighteous.
Force can defend a right, but
force has never yet created a
right.
Property rights are more Sc
cure when human rights are
respected.
It is not necessary to own a
people in order to trade with
them.
1t was God Himself who
placed in every human heart
the love of liberty.
The real destiny of the nation
is to establish the principle of
liberty for the whole world.
History furnishes no example
of tut pitude baser than ours if
We substitute our yoke for the
Spanish yoke.
= We cannot repudiate the prin-
ciple of self-government in the
Philippines without weakening
that principle at home.
If true Christianity consists in
carrying out in our daily lives
the teachings of Christ, who
will say that we are commanded
to civilize with dynamite and
proselyte with the sword2
A colonial policy means that
we shall send to the Philippines
a few traders, few taskmasters
and a few office holders and an
army large enough to support
the authority of a small fraction
of the people while they rule
the natives.
The whole difference between
a monarchy and a republic may
be summed up in one sentence ::
In a monarchy the king gives
the people what he believes to
be a good government; in a res
public the people secure for
themselves what they believe to
be a good government.

Fruit Growing in Eastern Caro-
lima.

To its great reputation as the
center of a trucking section,
New Bern this season has added
that of being a notable fruit
market, for fruit grown in its
immediate vicinity.
The proof that fruit, and fine
fruit, can be grown in this Sec
ton, has been successfully dem<
onstrated by Messrs. Geo. N. Ives
& Son at their Newport Fruit
Farm, a few miles below this
city on the A. & N. c. railroad.
The fruit grown for market
this season has been notably
peaches and grapes, a number OF
varieties of each kind.
These fruits have been most
successfully cultivated tor sew
eral years, with this year show
ing best results, as the farm has
reached a more mature and adj
vanced condition of develop>
ment.
The fruit of this season grown
at the farm of Messrs. Ives has
been abundant in quantity and
excellent in quality.
It's excellence can be judged
by the demand, which has taken
the fruit as fast as offered for
sale.
In the firms fruit store in this
city, the daily showing of fruit
from the Newport farm, this
display has excited favorable
comment on all sides.
The shipments to State points
has made the Ives peaches and
grapes in special request over
such fruit grown elsewhere, and
buyers have been willing to pay
higher for the Newport peaches,
and these peaches have been
sought in preference to the Geor>
gia peaches and others.
What the Messrs. Ives have
done can and will be done by
other fruit cultivators until the
fruit industry of Eastern Caro>
lima will be one of great proper
tions.-New Bern 1oarual.

The Democratic Sweep in North
Carolina.

North Carolina and all the
people thereof are to be congratu-
lated On the clean sweep made
by the Democrats in Thursdays
election. Nobody who was at
all acquainted with the condi>
tions in the Tar Heel State, or
with the temper of its people
doubted for a moment that just
what happened would happen.
Nevertheless, it is pleasant to
know the result, SO desirable
from every point of view, was
achieved without the attending
scenes of violence which were
anticipated by many.
While the main objective of
the campaign was the elimina>
tion of the negro as a menacing
factor in politics, a consumma>
ton assured by the adoption of
the amendment to the States
Constitution, what will be a
matter of no less keen gratifica-
ton to many Tar Heels is the
efectual quietus the sweeping
victory of Thursday puts upon
as sordid and despicable cabal
OF politicians as ever cursed
Southern State in reconstruction
days. 1t was not only victory
for "white supremacy,' which
was the battle cry OF the cam
paign, but it was no less a VIC
tory for decency in public affairs
and for order and stability in
government. The Tar Heels
are a conservative folk, but they
have contrived to give to the
political huckster, who bargains
for office as he would for a cab
bage, trading on the votes of his
ignorant and venal followers,
such a singing rebuke as he
shall have cause to remember
for quarter of a century.
The real significance of this
victtry lies in the fact that for
the first time in ten years the
intelligent, substantial and pro-
gressive element of the Old
North States population is in
full and undisputed control of
every branch of the State govern
ment without the prospect of
having to trim to the vagaries
of wild and woolly Populism OH
the one hand, or yield unduly to
special interests and corporate
influences on the other, in order
to keep the whole eastern sec>
ton of the State out of the slough
Of savagery. Our neighboring
State, therefore, is really on the
threshold of a new industrial and
political era, if the men who
have come in with the tide shall
carefully use the opportunities
that this unparalleled "vote of
has put in their
way.
The 1nen chosen to Office are
to be of an unusually
high order, the best men the
party could have named, while
the selection of a Democratic
Legislature insures Democratic
successor to Hon. Marion Butler
in the United States Senate,
North Carolina being at present
represented by a Populist and
Republican in that distinguished
body.-Virgiuia Pilot.
