A LABOR SAVING DEVICE.

~
Asheville Citizen, yL
Josephus Daniels of the .NeYs and OBJ
server in an extract from an, interview
with himself that appeared in the Char =
lotte Observer, gives his reasons for q
belief that the, outlook foE Democratic
success in 1904 lis much brighter today
than it was in 1892 This plan of quoting
in the editorial columns your own inter-
views from another paper is rather
labor saving device for so strenuous an
editor as Mr.. Daniels, but his ideas VIII
pass muster. He really expresses IN
vivid language the views of the great
majority of the Democratic party OIL
North Carolina on the next Presidential
campaign. He states a very important
fact when he draws distinction De-
tween the Republican motive and the
Democratic motive. The former says:
"Will it pay?' while the latter says, is
it right" and on the differing answers
to these questions depends the diver
gence in national policies

mo OTHER WAY" AND WHY.

There has been much discussion over
the action of the Sunny South, which,
after printing several chapters of Sir
Walter Besant's latest novel, mo 9th
er Way refused to print the balance,
deeming it not proper story to give to
it's readers Il says it read a synopsis
of the story before accepting, but there
was no inkling of the desperate perver-
sion of womanly character involved,
nor of the fatal selection of the man
whose movements are sure to prove the
primary interest as the publication pro-
crossed"
Here is the reason the Sunny South
excluded the story from its columns:
This condemned criminal in the
fourth installment of the serial looms up
a low type of the scum of England s
| blacklist colonial negro. A desperate.
a bigamist, l-bird-a dog! With ap-
parent delight Besant dwells upon this
brute's sentiments that springs but
| from the senses, and dilates upon the
| shuddering horror that dwells at once in
the mind of the woman after as dGbas-
| ing, revolving a wedding scene-to
Southern minds at 1east-as ever fic
tion fathered 1t is too much to ask that
readers shall be required to linger with
a story SO foreign to this fair country
THAT the recital of the plot seems
! something grotesque, and only within
| the realme of nightmare-an obsession
/ the result of mental INDIGESTION from
which we shall endeavor to save our
readers"
| No intermarriage between the races
and no suggestion of miScegenation is
wanted even in fiction.

The significant feature of the above
table, as pointed out by Hon. S. F. Pat
terson, Commissioner of Agriculture, in
a speech before the Tobacco Growers AS
sociation in Raleigh two years ago, is
that while production decreased the
value still more decreased, showing pref
ty conclusively that the law of supply
and demand have been throttled.
How much tobacco does North Carolina
grow! That is a hard question to answer
accurately, because the methods Of OBJ;
tanning the crop are so imperfect and so
varied, and there are so many different
kinds of weed grown. The Census Report
for 1900 has not yet been tabulated. Here
are the census reports for four census
periods of the North Carclaa crop:

So far the Democratic minority in
Congress is acting with wisdom and con-

A REUNION OF THE NON.RESI-
DENTS,

That the first day of the proposed cele-
bration at Roanoke Island should be de-
voted to our own State goes without say
ing. Not the least attractive feature of
it will be the reunion of the non resident
Carolinians, many thousands of whom
will be glad to avail themselves of the
l cheap rates as a means of visiting their
I'd homes again. Hundreds have attained
me and fortune in other States and
lands and will return with their honors
thick upon them.
College centennials have, from time to
time, reunited long severed ties-notably
the pne at Chapel Hill in 1S89-but no
celebration ever yet held in North Caro-
lima has been on scale sufficient to in
gather her absent sons and daughters
from every State and cline into which
they have gone. Lucky for her and for
the celebration many are in places where
they can do the most good. Some are in
Congress, some in State Legislatures,
some in executive office. Others are help
ing to manage roalroad and steamboat
lines in many States. Still others are
moulding public opinion as editors and
reporters. All they will wish to know is
that tie people at their old homes are
in earnest and organized, and that they
see the possibilities of the situation.
The exposition features of the various
celebrations held since 1876 have run
away with their historic and educational
significance as well as their social posi-
bilities. People return from every one
of them and have seen nothing and heard
of little but the goods, weaves and mer-
chandise somebody was pecuniarily, not
periodically interested to show them.
Commercialism invaded everything and
pervaded everywhere, not as incident
but as the very point and purpose of the
whole affair.
BY far the most interesting things
North Carolina can show are her natural
products. Her sounds constitute one of
the most remarkable water systems in
the world--in fact-not duplicated any
where. Given cheap rates sufficient for
cities and holiday month, and thous-
ands of our people will visit that sec
tion to see the works of nature alone,
for there she has wrought in her most
peculiar moods Leaving out of view the
significant facts in our history which we
propose to celebrate, and they are more
significant, unique, and memorable than
any that will be celebrated at st. Louis
inn 1908 or in Virginia at jamestown
in 19O7-the picturesque island itself, the
land locked waters protected by the great
barriers of send, and the raging ocean at
Hatteras are all attractions that need no
finery to exploit.
The sound people have the country
which the world loves to see, and the lit
tie island which Locke Craig says is the
romantic spot of North Carolina, guards,
the event which all Anglo America and
all Anglo-Saxondom will be glad to cele-
brate-for it, marked the beginning of the
efforts which eliminated in wrestling near
ly a whole continent to the glory and
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of our race and connects
our State and country with man
whose greatness looms across the flats
of the centuries like a collussus."

We are prepared to make loans on
improved farms for a term OF ten years,
with interest payable annually. we
will give the borroWerer the privilege
of making a payment Of as much as
one-ifth of the principal at any time
each year, thereby stopping the inter
est on the amount paid. BY this
method the borrower is enabled to pay
off the full amount of the loan in five
! years. The privilege to pay one-fifth
leach year is optional with the borrow.
Ger He can, if he chooses, keep the
sloan for the full time. No extra charge
for this privilege. which enables the
farmer to be out of debt in five Years if
The chooses. Should the borrower con
$clude to pay only one-tenth of his loan
leach year, he would then be out Of
debt at the end of ten years. As most
borrowers pay the agent a commission
for their loans, it is very easy to see
the advantage of the above plan. It
5enables the farmer to save the expens-
les of making a new loan every three
Cor five years. Our mortgages have no
gold clause.
