Editor Duvall, of the Norton Cour-
Ter, who expected better things of the
republican party than the election of
such man as J. r. Burton as United
States senator, has the following to
say of the ''treason" which secured
the position and the political bull
wark'' by which it is to be sustained:
"While in the city last fall J. R.
Burton told US that he expected, if
elected to the q. S. senate, to make
appointments which would build up
bufwark about his political ambitions
which could not be aSsailed. Yet he
has in every way encouraged treason
to BakeS, and will accept of the fruit
which falls from the tree. By wink
ing his other eye at reasonable con-
duct he may as well commence right
now expecting a little of it mixed in
his own dish Of hash.

To The Highest Bidder.

The county printing was let by the
majority of the new board Of county
commissioners last Monday night to
John @. Royce whose bid was the
highest one submitted. The people
will have the pleasure Of paying a
higher rate for the printing this year
than they have ever paid in the his
tory of the county since the organiza-
tion of the peoples party.
The bid submitted by Wardie White
of the News was as follows: Is per
cent of legal rates or % cents per
square for publication of all legal no
tices; 5 cents for town lot descriptions
and ten cents for land descriptions,
delinquent tax and final redemption
list.
The HERALD bid was for 40 per cent
of legal rates for legal publications, 5
cents for town lots and 123 cents for
land descriptions in delinquent tax
and final redemption list.
Mr.. Royce's bid was highest of all,
being so per cent of legal rates for
publications and cents for town lots
and Is cents for land descriptions in
delinquent tax and final redemption
lists.
The contract for job work was also
let to Mr.. Royce whose bid was made
to read "ten per cent less than re-
ceived last year, which still leaves it
considerably higher than the bids OF
the HERALD and the News.
OF course nobody expected anything
else than that the commissioners
would do as they have done. They
were elected to do it. The republican
majority has become SO large IN this
county that the officials no longer feel
the necessity OF looking after the in
terests of the taxpayers, but consider
themselves safe in spending larger
amount of the peoples money to re-
ward party bosses.

Another ..saIary Grab, ,,

Congressman Loudenslager Of New
Jersey has introduced bill raising
the salary OF. the vice president to $25,-
600 year, and of cabinet officers to
SIS, 900 a year. All now receive 5000
a year This is the first time that any
attempt has been made to advance
federal salaries since the Forty-second
congress, which has passed into his
tory as the salary crap congress. That
congress voted to increase the salaries
of senators and members of the house
from S., 900 to 81, 800 and make the adj
vance retroactive for their over two
years OF service: to advance the presi-
dent from $25, 900 to $50, 900, the vice
president from $8, 600 to 1000, cabin
ct officers from $4,000 to $4,000, JUS
ticeS Of the supreme court from 5000
to SO, 1000, and the chief justice from
So, 800 to SO, 500. The public cutlery
that was raised retired most of the
members of that congress to private
life, not so much because of the fact
that additional pay had been voted,
as because they had made it retroac-
tive for themselves. That was re-
garded as public steal. The next
congress promptly repealed the law,
save as to the presidents salary, and
the supreme court. Under the consti-
tuition, the salaries of the judges hay-
ing been advanced could not be re-
duced, at least during the life time of
any OF the judges then on the bench.

Deceased was young man and had
been suffering from consumption of

months ago with the hope of being
benefited by change of climate, but
came home no better and gradually
grew worse up to the time of his
death. Funeral services were held at

stroy all the bugs on the farm. The
quail shooter is property destroyer;
every time he shoots quail he de-

Children Whipped in the Cotton Fac
tories.
From Appeal to Reason


Colored minors in North Carolina
factories, it is reported, are whipped
for violations OF the mill regulations
much as children were whipped Ill
school in other Gays Tor mlSdemeanOrS.
The fact arOuSeS no sentiment in the
south, whatever may be thought OF it
in the north. Girls and boys alike are
whipped, and the laSn-iS laid on Sc
verely, according to The statement OF
the man, himself a negro, who does
| the whipping in one or the mills. 10
discharge the children, he explains,
would avail lutte, as The vacated places
would have to be nIled with children
equally refractory or miSch1eVOuS.-
New Y DIRK Evening Post.
There are Ala cotton factories in the
south, owned mostly by northern cap
italiStS. In many, ii not in all OF
them, little white boys and girls from
eight to twelve years of age are COM
PEELED to work all night for ten cents
In some of them they are under negro
overseers who ttog them when, from
fatigue and lack OF sleep, they fail to
do the work to the satisfaction OF their
bosses. Are there any GarrisOnS or
Phillips or Summers or GreeleyS de-
nouncing these outrageS as the mas
tiers of the black slaves were denounced
forty years ago? No. Why are not
the pulpitS laundering against these
outrageS? Is it because they are
dumb before the millionaire pew hold
ers?
Why do not the great newspapers
condemn these brutalitieS? Is it be-
cause they are largely controlled by
the men who own the monOpOlies?
Why do not the old political parties
protest against the slavery of children
in the factories, the slavery of men in
the coal mines, and of half-starved
women and girls in the sweat shops?
Is it because they are too busy build
ing warshipS and guns with which to
kill defenseless people across the sea-
to much engaged in adding to their
already princely riches? Are the poor,
and the weak and the young, to be
Scourged forever by the lash Of the
| plutocratS? Is the God of justice
dead? No, no. ''The mills of the gods
grind slowly, but they grind exceed
ingly fine" In due time the deep
wrongs of the exploited wage-slave
will be redressed. Socialism is coming
as the friend and champion Of the
poor and friendless. 1t is founded on
Justice; it demands fair play; it is OPP
posed to slavery. 1t hates wrong. Its
battle-cry is ian injury to the most
obscure citizen is the concern of all. "
1t will take these children out of the
clutches of their brutal masters and
send them to school. 1t will see that
honest labor is properly rewarded. 1t
will stop the preparation OF the dam
nable outrages now being inflicted up
on the poor by greedy, selfish, heart
! less shylocks, who call robbery 'sbusi-
ness 1t will emancipate the slave
and by equitable laws and by business
methods founded on Justice to all. Will
make this world a fit place to live In.
