CAUGHT IN HIS OWN NET.

They do say that when great big boss
and plutocrat, Pierpont Morgan, of
New York. tackled that canny Scotch
man, Andy Carnegie. he ran afoul of
the worst snag. butted against the
highest wall. waded into the deepest
stream, plunged into the darkest hole,
ran into the biggest trap that a self
confident, boastful, yet unwary fellow
with big %spondulics was ever known to
do. He found himself caught and
lcaught badly at the mercy of the sharp
man of Scotia and had to pay very
dearly for the most unfortunate &C
lq~uaintance. He was beaten at his
own game of bluff and brag. He
sought to control Carnegie and the en-
overlooked the important fact that
there was "a bigger man" than Pier
.pont or any of his set. 1t is an anus
ing instance of overweening confidence
and catch. He simply overlapped and
counted without his host. He was
caught in the net of his own devising.
The Atlanta Journal gives this:
HIS pldH 10 uISpOSe vi ID llCSiC H"S
to bottle him up in Pittsburg and thus
have his vast interests there at his
mercy. Mr.. Morgan fixed his hold so
fast on the railroads CenterinS in Pitts
burg hat he could have done this il
Mr. Carnegie had consented to sit still
and be bottled. But MI. Carnegie de-
cIined to do so. He determined TO build
railroads of his own which would give
him ample and reader access TO the
markets n ports hat he now has"
He astounded the vain-glorious New
Yorker, immensely set a shock though
quite electrical and destructive even.
The result of it all was that Pierpont
found himself bottled up" and the
self-reliant Scotsman standing off with
thumb on nose and with wiggling fin
gers in front. He had to pay $130,0OO,-
600 for the Carnegie stock. giving him
a premium of $40, 900. 900. 1t was a huge
deal attended with high fun.

The democrats in the congress are
making a very earnest fight against
the subsidy sham and steal. Senator
Jones. Of Arkansas. made an effective
and able speech against it. 1t is to be
noted that Senator Cafrery. of Louisi-
ana, who has not stood by his party
often, spoke at great length against the
miserable wrong and humbug. The
lrascals pushing it are in a tremendous
hurry. The Baltimore Sun explains
why his is done. 1t says:
1.-The eagerness Of the subsidy hunt
Iers to get their ship-bounty job voted
on is believed to be due to the fact that
Its chief beneficiary, h international
Navigation Company, will get a bounty
lon two vessels, a~ggregating 24,52o tons,
inow building. if the bill is passed be-
Ifore the vessels are completed. but will
mot get so much IL the ships are COM
Ipleted before the bill is passed"
Under the law to be passed the job
seekers would get $1190.000 instead OF
ls757, 900 if not passed. In all they would
lreceive-this particular company|1.-
$50. 024. The bin would cost he people
(pver 500. 0o0. 900.

THE NEGRO As A LABORER.

1t is probably true that negro labor
must be so until a sufflciency OF white
labor has been introduced. The value
of negro labor is limited. 1t is not worth
much for the factories. The Charles
ton fiasco shows that. We called atten-
ton to the new box by a negro named
ton to the new book by a negro named
labor at present. He points out the
Ilazyness, the unreliableness, the COM
lplete stiffness of the average negro.
He says the negro as a worker must
be regenerated before he can be made
Ia really profitable factor. The 8,
is friendly. but Sambo must learn dill
Igence and stability. cultivate good hab-
Its, quit loafing and tramping and
show he is faithful and can be trusted.
The Messenger has told Of the Nova
Scotian who saw eight negroes on our
river loading a barge. After looking
on for some time he said to a Whining
~tonian, in my country four white men
lido what the eight are attempting and
do it better. The Baltimore Sun has
this to say, and its partly prophetical:
Their is a great field in the south
flor the race. but unless the black men
land women make better use of their
opportunities they will not share in
the prosperity of that section, nor will
they ever establish themselves else
where. If they continue to be ineffi-
clint and unreliable hey will inevitably
Ibe superseded by other labor. The best
friends of the negro are those who
teach him the gospel of work and i'm
press upon him the necessity of Guilt
lyating habits of Industry"

REpU BLICAN PAPERS on THE Nc
KINLEY DUPLICITY.

The Cuban question is very much
to the front. Newspapers of all kinds
and parties in the north are handling
it with unbroken interest. The COM
plete change of Mckinley, his moral
degradation, his sell-out to the money
grabbers are all conspicuous and COM
plete. He is about to perpetate a great
and intolerable wrong if he can con-
summate his plans. This New York
Evening Post says:
The shrewdest Washington CORE
spondentS see in all the seIni-official
utteranceS about Cuba, and the talk
OF an extra session to deal with the
Cuban question, only a characteristic
move of the presidents to prepare the

essential demands Of right and honor,
with a cynical reliance upon 81

of despotism. It tells us the weak have

There are some of our best exchanges
that favor a restoration of the whipping
post. The Henderson Gold Leaf and
the Durham Record are out for it. The
latter makes a forceful plea for it. We
select a few sentences that show the
drift and urgency:
Modern methods of Furnishing crimes
are altogether too refined: they are
lacking in severity necessary to have
ANY deterrent effect upon the criminals
Whom they are intended to reform. .
Whipping is a form of punishment that
IaIl men shrink from. The stigma of it
