notice in your Tuesdays issue of the

the Republicans want political peace in
North Carolina they can get it by accept
ing in good faith the result of the
August election, quit harassing and perse-
cutting in the Federal courts Democratic
officials, and putting an end to their
political meanness. Ii they continue TO
boast that they have q Supreme Court
that will anuul the constitutional amend
ment; if they continue TO put in the Con-
gressional Record base and false ISLANDERS
of the people of the State; if their Fed
eral judges continue TO charge Federal
jurors that they must indict State Off
Gals and Federal district attorneys COM
pei Federal grand juries to find true bills
against honest men; il Federal Republi-
can officers continue to arrest good men
upon trumped up charges and carry them
from their homes for trial;-if the Re-
publicans thus show their purpose to be to
keep alive the issues the Democratic par
ty tried to settle last year. then the
be he who first cries Hold, enough .
This Legislature ought to authorize and
direct the Governor TO employ counsel to
being prosecuted by the ingenuity and
deyiltry of Federal Radical office holders.
They were directed by the State to per-
form certain duties. They did their duty
faithfully and honestly, and the concerted
arrest of these men by minions of the
Radical party by direction OF the leaders
of that party, is not for any purpose Of
enforcing the law. 1t is for the purpose
of trying to throw doubt upon the legality
of the election that resulted in the sue
cess of the Constitutional Amendment. To
the defense of these men and 10 the
maintenance of the Constitutional Amend
ment the State is committed, and no eff
fort or pains will be spared to defeat the
Vaccinations OF the Radical leaders who
evidently wish continuance of the strife
that mas cursed the state since 1857 ING
good people of the state had hoped that
better and quieter days were in store
for us, but it seems that the Radical
politicians wish it otherwise. II such be
their desire, the Democrats, while de-
ploring it, will not permit Radicalism to
triumph without another struggle as
strenuous as that in 1898 if it be neces-
sary.

that they want peace and quiet conditions

That is what they say.
What do they do to prove their asser-
tiong
l. They instruct the newly appointed
Federal judge to make i charge that is
intended and calculated TO reopen the
negro question which the voters decided
to settle last August.
.. They procure the arrest of dozens
of honest gentlemen, who as registrars of
election enforced the law of the State,
upon false charges trumped up for politi-
cal purposes.
3. They have secured the introduction of
a resolution in the United States Senate
declaring that the last elections were not
doubt on the legality of the certificate of
election of Senator-elect Simmons, pro-
pose 10 use it as a text for ISLANDERS in
the United States Senate of the people

4. They are spreading broadcast false
hoods to the effect that the handful of
Republicans in the Legislature are treated
discourteously, and that the Democrats
have entered upon a career of revolution
and wrong.

CONDITIONS NEED REFORM.
All Work Stops When Whole Village
 Goes on Visiting Party.

Washington. Nov 9.--While Com mander Benjamin +. Tflley, command ant of the United States naval station at Tutuila, Samoa, was. in Washing ton recently he submitted to Secretary Long his annual report of affairs and conditions in this island possession. Commander Tilley says that the form of government instituted by the United States has proven very popular with the Tutuilians. He recounts the nu- merous improvements in the system of self government which have been sug- gested to the people and eagerly agreed to by them. Two of the conditions which needed reform were note worthy. Every once i'll while, says Commander TilIey. q whole village would make up it's mind to go on q "melanga" or visiting party. All work would be abruptly stopped and all ages and sexes would start out on a wan dering holiday. The spirit of hospi- tality, he says, is cultivated to an ex- treme among the natives. and at ey cry village visited by the rovers the hosts felt it their bounden duty to en- certain lavishly. The visiting party would stay at one village just as long as their entertainers could provide food for them. When supplies ran out they bade nasty adieus and moved on to the next village to be ''enter- tained" Commander Tilley says that there was never q time that d s.melanga'' was not in progress some where i'll the island.
 Another custom was the bestowing Of presents of great value at weddings and other ceremonies. Il practice which is carried to such an excess that sin gle wedding often impoverished q whole village. Both Of these prac- tices were stopped. upon the suggestion of Commander Tilley. by the natives themselves.
 Summing up the work of the year in Tutuila. Commander Tilley says that all organized and successful gov ernment has been established which renders the people quiet and happy, and is helping them materially in their journey along the pathway toward complete civilization.
