Just little touch of Spring.
Webbtown will send a crowd up
That viii make the welkin ring.
But no matter what the weather is
They are going to send a few,
"Tammany" Suggs is going
And carry tae Webbtown crew.
Webbtowns love for Aycock
Is lasting as the rock
They are proud that he lives in Webbtown
And votes at the Webbtown box.
That WAYNE can furnish the Governor,
Makes us all feel very glad
1t has done th.s once before.
But the other-wel he was a Rad
But there's nothing wrong with Aycock
He's a Democrat through and through,
Neither soiled. faded nor dusty,
But matchless, and brand new;
And when he gets in harness
And gathers up the reins,
He may lack Dan Russell's avoirdupoisc,
But he makes it uo in brains

The college has. never been properly
equipped. Compared with similar insti-
rutions in otl er States it is very poor
ly equipped n buildings and machine

AS this is the only college in the State
for industrial education of white boys,
it should be fullIt equipped. The vel

Wilmington Messenger.
The inaugural address of Governor Ay-
cock will be very generally read through
out North Carolina by men of all par
ties and races. 1t is a carefully prepared
document. 1t is well worded, with GER
tain terseness, directness and simplicity
that are very pleasing. There are but
few passages that rouse deeply the soul.
or kindle with the fires OF imagination.
But there are many simple and felicitous
axioms that will please, and sound wis
dom ramifying the whole production CIV
ing it force and health and excellence.
It will come as nigh pleasing everybody
we may think, as any address 'of the kind
that was ever delivered at the Inaugural
ton of a governor of North Carolina. 1t
is a prudent, guarded, conservative eff
fort, and is replete with sentiments that
appeal to the judgment, candor and fair
ness of all men. 1t may be of course OBJ
iected to in some point presented or in
the expression of some sentiment, but
that is the fate of all human productions.
If read in a spirit of candor it will be
relished and applauded.

Ode to Governor Aycock,

The following ode. composed by Geo.
NJ Lindsey, Esq, of Snow Hill, was read
at the banquet given TO the Governor at
Goldsboro on the night before his inau-
guration:
To our gallant son of Wayne,
Battle-scarred for human rights,
Shades of Vance arise again,
Turn our darkness to light,
Bring your laurels, to him flock,
Grown our hero Aycock, Aycock,
Deck his brow with homage and love.
For the glorious victory won.
The loyal hearts of the people prove
The sire of a noble son,
Bring black fusion to the block,
WELD the headman's axe, Aycock, Aycock
IAN era is born in triumph and glory,
The dawn of a century new
Shall write the name in song and story,
AS the gallant, the brave and true,
Who withstood the evenings fiercest
shock,
And struck for freedom; Aycock Aycock. :"

NO PRIZE FIGHTING HERE.


Governor Aycock's first telegram as
Governor shows that this State cannot
be made the resort of prize fighters. He
had not long taken the oath of office
when he received a telegram from the
Cincinnati Post saying: viii Jeffries and
Ruhlin be permitted to fight a number OF
rounds in North Carolina if prevented
in Cincinnati?' The Governor replied
Under no conditions will permit it in
North Carolina"
The strange thing about this is that
any man in his widest dreams could sup
pose sturdy old North Carolina would toll
crate what is too tough for the stomach
OF Cincinnati.

THE GOVERNOR ON THE NEGRO.

There is a portion of the inaugural ad-
dress of Governor .Aycock which voices
the true public sentiment of the people of
the State on the attitude of the admins
tration toward the negro. The Democratic
party is the friend of the negro. 1t will
do him no injury but will help him. There
is no part OF the inaugural address that is
nobler in sentiment or that is finer in OK
preston than, the reference to the me-
groes We quote:
Il wish to say to the negroes of this
State that they have been misinformed
If they have heard that this administra-
tion will be unfriendly to them. Their
every right under the Constitution shall
be absolutely preserved; they will find
security in RIGHT conduct and certain
punishment for failure to obey the law.
Let them learn that crimes which lead

law shall curse our State no more.
call upon all upright negroes to aid me
in supDressing crime in all its FORMS
The white people owe a high daty to the
negro. Itswas necessary to the safety
OF the state to base suffrage on capacity
to exercise it wisely. This results in ex-
Guiding a great number of negroes from
the ballot but their right to life. liDer-
ty. property and justice must be even
more carefully safeguarded than ever

COMES UP TO THE FULL MEASURE.

COMES UP TO THE FULL MEASURE.
Greensboro Telegram.
In his inaugural, presented elsewhere
in the Telegram, Governor Aycock comes
to the full measure required OF him.
Not since Vance last assumed the guber-
material chair has SO much been expected
and hoped for from an administration as
is looked for from the one that at noon
this day took the oath of office AS it's
head announces, there will be mistakes,
there will be shortcomings, less would
be greater than human. But the great
thing is that the young man has gone up
from the plains into the mountain top
and has seen the vision, caught the in
spiration of a new era and a new CEN
tury, flung a new ideal athwart the break
ing light Of new skies, and bids us lift
our eyes TO new, grander horizon,
We shall not see the day perhaps when
1.-The kindly earth shall slumber, lapt in
universal law" but it is something to
know that we are on the threshold OF a
kindlier, better day, and that the young
man sees with a ken beyond his prede-
cessors, and that he would have others
see and seeing help him realize.

Alter More Property.

1t was stated yesterday that the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company
had purchased. or was about to
purchase a portion or all OF what
is known as the No. 3 mill of the
Diamond State Steel Company on
Third street below the railroad.
No one interested ia the deal could
be seen last night, but it is known
that the company has wanted at
least a portion Of this mill for some
time.
According to the plans Of the
railroad company the elevated
tracks which are to be erected.
would run over top OF this mill, and
it would be necessary to either
cnange the plan Of the tracks OF to
secure the mill. 1.-THE sale is made
the department OF the Diamond
State Steel Company, now operat-
ing in this mill would be removed
to some other site, probably Oh the
sovth side, where the company has
more land on which TO build. There
is considerable machinery in the
mill, which would have to be re-
moved in case the sale was con-
summated.
The railroad company has al
ready purchased a number OF
properties in the vicinity to make
room for lis elevated tracks and is
still busy negotiating for other
land.
