Democrats Meet.

There was large aud enthusiast
tic NEE ing OF local Democrats last
evening at Progress Hall. Every
chair in the spacious hall was occu-
pied and even the stairs leading to
the hall were lined with men apxi-
Gus to hear the speeches Of the elo.
qusnt orators who occupied the
platform. DR.. j. S, McGrew pre-
sided assisted by Colonel Mccarthy,
aud Mr. John Wise acted as secre-
tary. Speeches we're made by at
torney E. B. McClanahap, John E.
Bush aud j. X Kaulia. Some re-
marks were also made by Mr..
Marshall, formerly editor OF the de-
fuoct w ,lrano",
Mr.. McClanahan is forcible
speaker and we regret that space
prevents us from printing his speech
in full. His address uhirh was very
moderate aud full Of tact was fre-
quently interrupted with applause
and received enthusiastically by the
audience.
MIR. Bush made an excellent
speech, in which he explained the
impossibility Of asking the Hawaii
ans to take sides in the national
political issues.
Mr.. Marshall went on the plat
form in response to calls from some
Republicans present in the hall who
wanted to see some fun. They saw
it, but it will hardly be- fun for Mr.
Marshall who decidedly failed to
score success.
Before adjourning the following
resolution introduced by G. L.
Rhodes was adopted.
Resolved, That the chairman oil
this meeting be authorized to ap'
point committee OF tweuty-one tc
be announced through the news

THE FATHERS ARE BACK NUM-
BERS.

'No more stupendous fallacy was
ever enunciated than Thomas Jeffer-
sons assertion in the Declaration of
independence, that all men are Gre
ated equal yet that fallacy is re-
peated and emphasized by the Demo
cratic nominee for the Presidency,
w. j. Bryan, in his recent notifica-
ton speech, and has been referred to
several times since by him in other
speeches"
Thus writes a correspondent of the
New York Times. In order to sup
port McKinley's policy of imperialism
and favoritism to trusts, a man has
to scout Jefferson's teachings, call
Washington a back number. spit upon
Madison's teachings, deride Jackson's
Americanism, and repudiate Web
ster's declaration that 'the gorgeous
ensign of the Republic" was then
known and honored throughout the
earth"
Mark Hanna and his tricks" are
their ideals.

MISS A TRICK"

In recent speech in trust-ridden
New Jersey, trying to stimulate the
trust benefciaries to increased liber-
atty, Mark Hanna said:
perhaps better than any man in
the, country / know the nature, of the
contest which is before us.
at will not do to take anything for
granted nor to neglect single effort
or to miss trick
That last sentence shows the low
plane upon which Mark Hanna con-
ducts his campaign. He is no better
than man who wins at ''confi-
dence game only he does 1.-THE
trick" on a larger scale. The specta-
Gle of that corruptionist and vulgar
ian, whose highest conception of pol
1itical management is not to miss a
trick" at the head of the national adj
ADMINISTRATION, is public scandal and
disgrace.

BEAUTIES OF IMPERIALISM.I1

The policy of colonialism is insepa-
rable from injustice. Where the coun-
try is in the tropics, the officers sent
to govern them almost always fleece
the people so that they may return
home rich. The rottenness in Cuba
is only drop in the bucket compar-
edi to what we shall hear when the
full returns are in from the Philip
pines.
Mr.. w. Z. Johnson, editor of the
New Voice, a gentleman of character
and standing, has recently returned
from six months visit to the
Philippines and he gives this INSTALL
ment of the conditions that prevail
under the American rule administer
ed in Manila:
"There is soon to be an outbreak
in Manila in the line of the recent
Cuban scandal. There are several
firms of custom house agents in Ma
Mia, but one firm is practically DOM
inant. Those who go to any other
firm have endless trouble and eX-
pense in getting goods ashore.
San acquaintance of mine who is
employed in the custom house as in
spector told me he expected to make
100000 in graft" The charges for
extra purposes above the regular
tariff are enormous. 1t is a notorious
fact among the merchants that ii
this particular firm is employed many
of those extra charges need not be
paid.
"The American Commercial Com
pany is the trust that controls $50 or
200 beer canteens scattered among
the army posts. Friends of the cam
teens declare they keep the soldier
from the saloon and on the same prin-
ciple, with equal force, those in charge
in Manila declare the social evil is
snecessity. The same system prevails
in the Sulu archipelago that caused
such scandal in London when it
was discovered The British had adopt
ed it in the army in India.
1.-THE Americans have introduced
prize fighting. About two or three
times a month a prize fight is arrang-
ed in Manila. The Americans have
inaugurated Sunday races under the
auspices of the Country Club.
1.-THE Spanish let out an opium mo-
nopoly for S10,0G0 payable monthly
to the Spanish government. When
the Americans took the island this
monopoly was held by a Chinese mil
lionaire, Senior Don Carlos Palanca.
Arrangements were made by which
Palanca paid duty that amounted to
the same sum. Every man who runs
an opium resort pays a certain sum
into Palancas Golfers

and the State. His first public SER
vice was as a member of the Federal
House of Representatives from
the Second district and later he was
Collector of Internal Revenue from
1898 to 1897 under Cleveland. In Con-
gress he stood for the principles of
the Democratic party and represented
his constituents with ability and fidel-
itv. AS Collector of Internal Reve
nue. he filled the test-"honest, fit
competent"
The most conspicuous service Mr..
Simmons has rendered the party has
been as chairman of the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee in 1892,
1898 and 1900, each of which cam
paigns resulted in a Democratic VIC
tory. He Is an astute and able cam
paien manager whose zeal and capac-
ity have been marked. He has the
confidence of the party and as a po-
litical organizer he has no superior
in the State and as a political speak
err he stands among the first.
He will enter the race for the Sen
ate with a strong support and if
chosen to that high position will fill
it with the marked ability which he
has shown in every other position to
which he has been called. He has
served the Democratic party with
conspicuous zeal and devotion and de-
serves we'll at it's hands.

LOOKING TO FEDERAL HELP.

A Republican politician from Ken
lucky, by name John w. Langley,
tells the Washington Post that Ken
lucky will vote for Mckinley. Ask
ed if the Goebel law would not pre-
vent the fulfllment of his prediction,
Langley said:
II do not think so, for the reason
that there Isl Federal election, as
well as a State election, which will
afford us additional protection"
Do you see? In Kentucky the Re-
pubiicans are relying upon the same
Federal protection" which our ven
cradle Baptist preacher warns the
Democrats of North Carolina that Nc
Kinley's Federal officials expect to
utilize in this State to get the electo-
raj vote for Mckinley. But-do not
say anything about it! If you do, the
Democrats will be on their guard and
prevent it. Besides it is better-ac-
cording to the McKinleyites who pro-
fess to be Democrats-for Mckinley
to- get the electoral vote of the State
than for anybody to criticize McKin-
ley for putting negro officials over
Southern communities.
