THE PASSING OF RUSSELLlSM.
Smithfield Herald.
The people of North Carolina are to
be congratulated that the end of Rus
sellism is at hand and the dawn of q
brighter day is nigh. 1t goes without
saying that the administration of Rus
sell has been the darkest and blacklist,
characterized by more scandal and con-
trolled by the most underhand political
pulls and influences. Of any that the
good old State has been called upon to
endure. And in its history, North
Carolina has been forced to undergo
many tough and trying experiences.
All have been eclipsed by the record of
Russell.
In the early days of his tyrannical
rule, he outraged the name of his State
by the Corporation Commission scandal
and the memorable affair of the arsenal
in the executive office is not yet for
gotten. Then came the Smith affair in
the Insane Asylum. Other scandals
developed in the control of the peni-
tentiary All could have been either
averted or corrected had the Governor
stuck to his duty. But his appointees
and favorites had to be protected and
the Governor was not the one to forget
them-even if they We're arscals.
The Southern Railway affair, the
asylum scandal, the penitentiary cpl,
sode, and the Railroad Commission war
with the conversion of the executive
office into IN arsenal. constitute the
titles to some of the blackest pages
in our States history. In all Governor
Russell figured. In all his was the
prominent part. In all the casts he was
the leading character.
Truly the State is coming into better
times. Truly great load has been up
n~tSd ana an ever menacing danger
thrown off and east aside. For with
Rusacu control we knew not when
nor here nor in what manner the
Galer $50 lid come. We only knew
that PIX sted. We feel grateful for
raa rase'aE of Russellism.

A GREAT OCCASION.

Every indication points to a memorable
day in Raleigh on Tuesday, January 10th,
when the new State officers are to be in
angurated. The local committee, headed
by Mr. Joseph e. Pogue, and the legisla-
tive committee, headed by Mr.. Francis d.
Winston, have completed every detail of
the programme, which guarantees that
the inauguration will be brilliant sue
cess-
1t is fitting that upon the return of the
Democratic party to power the occasion
should be celebrated by the people OF the
State with Joy and pride. 1t means the
beginning of the day OF better things-of
higher ideals. of purer laws, of saner
government. The men who come into
power are charged with grave response

behind them stand the bulk Of the best

Workmen Fall Into steaming Tank

An awful accident happened at the We

workmen. all colored, fell into the steam

the worst, died last night. The others

TEE PApTY PLEDGE.

'H"T-1IIe vows.
The Ga 1T abuse of the party conven-
,lon, ana the possibility of cut-and-
dried" nominations, makes it necessary
for the whole people to have a voice in
the nomination of their public servants.
The party primary, when not legalized,
leaves too much scope for fraud and there
is no good reason why the present legisla-
ture should not take action. The Demo-
cratic party is pledged to the measure.

The railroads of tie State ought TO

The lodging has, in the past few years
become almost science among a cer-
