GOVERNORS ADDRESS AT CHAR

Governor Aycock delivered an elabo-

cation" at Charlotte on Tuesday night.
1t was not a merely local address but
was intended for the state at large. He
began early in his campaign for the
high Office he so worthily holds. the
gift of the people. and like st. Paul said,
so "magniies" it. to urge with exceed
ing enthusiasm n force the great idea
OF popular e~ducation-to educate every
body. While The Messenger knew from
the start that he was no originator Of
a fresh theme. any more than he was
the author of the Meckdenburg Declara-
ton OF Independence or Washington's
Farewell Address," yet 1t was in
hearty sympathy with him in his zeal
and energy and ability in the advocacy
OF a most important question. Long be-
fore Governor Aycock was even born.

ress on his line Of action against the
Tory government. He is trying to
unite n rally the Liberals. which Is
a GOOD cause. The London correspon-
cent of the New York Tribune cables:
His influence increases daily. Mr..
Balfour and Sir Michael Hicks-Beach
have strengthened him by making weak
s0eeches and failing to reply adequately
To his Indictment of the state and in
efficient Mr.. Bryce has
ALSO aided him by welcoming his leader
ship in a closely reasoned speech with
much hard logic in it. which has irri-
tated the government supporters. '
From that source the German abuse Of
the British armv as a mob of mis-
creants and Mr.. Chamberlain as an ac-
cursed S~coundrel reacts in favor of the
O eminent here. John Bull hardens
his heart. and while too prudent to stir
I'D Dad blood in wartime. has no inten-
tlon of deserving the powerful minister
when he is under the fire of foreigners"
But this growing popularity does not
tally with a dispatch Of the Is h from
London stating that angry Kisses were
given for Lord Rosebery by his party
in & great meeting held on that night
at ST. James Hall. The ex-Premier
was denounced as a TRAITOR by the
vast meeting of the Liberals, and his
letter was hardly listened to The
speakers made it very clear that non
but the firm in faith will be received.
The same meeting also gave an ovation
to the gifted Miss Hobhouse. who so
calamity led the agitation against Boer
reconstruction camps. She was called

Often the Messenger has attempted
to expose the iniquities practiced upon
the tax payers by the most unreasona-.
BILE and grinding pension system as now
carried on in this country. While Gen.
eral Grant said thirty years 6 that
the pensions should never exceed $780,
600, 900, and that too soon after the war
when two millions of northern soldiers
were living, it is now held that it is
right to levy a a of nearly $145, 600, 600
upon the people for pensions, when
more than half Of the pensioners, are
gone. The present pension disburse.
ment is over $40. 900. 900 after thirty
seven years of peace. The bill providing
for next years pension expenditure.
1903. calls for $139, 4S6, 900. We believe
the provision for 1902, is some $146. OOO,-
900. The reduction is stated to be about
$4,000 900. 1t was said in the house in
the debate on the pension bill that this
decrease is due, not to a general reduc-
ton in the number Of pensioners, but
to the fact that the government is not
paying as much for arrears of pensions
as heretofore. while the number of pen
sioners drawing large sums annually
has diminished.
The Baltimore Sun gives III glance
at an officials opinion:
Commissioner Evans, it Is stated, is
of the opinion that the high d of
pension payments has been re ached, and
the amount required for the care of
those dependent upon the bounty of the
government will remain stationary for
some years This cheerful optimism
about the high tide of pension pay
ments is not justified by the experiences
Of the past thirty years. There was a
time when it was confidently asserted
that the limit had been reached when
SIS, 600. 600 was disbursed annually by the
governmen as a reward to the men
who saved the union This year the
national pension bill is nearly six times
as great as the sum which was regard
ed as excessive a few years after the
close of the civil war"
We recall that President Garfield gave
it as his opinion that under no circum-
stances should the pension appropria-
ton ever exceed $31. 900. 900. Now repub-
licans in the congress and out think
1t right and honest and just to tax the
people to pay in 1903 nearly $40, 000. 900,
and to continue this payment for years.
II is a want of decency and honesty
that does not wipe out this huge sum
to not more than s25. 000. 900. Great and
numerous frauds have been perpetrated
in pensions Mr.. Talbert. of South Car
olina. called attention to the extrava-
gance n fraud of the pension system,
and discussed properly h very bad
habit of passing special pension bills.
This curse and offence rests upon the
country and yet there Is not enough Of
real integrity and Independence to miti-
gate the outrage and cut down the
great sum nisapplied-

ington in behalf Of the needed improve

peared before the GUS committee on
rivers and harbors, when he presented
at length the case he represented and
with fullness and completeness. He
is a journalist OF ability. We take the
following from his statement Of the
case from his standing-point:
THE existing traffic on the Cape Fear
river between Wilmington and Fayette-
Vile amounts to 115 200 tons. valued at
s1.150. 900. The existing railway rgaihS
in n out of Fayetteville IS l12, 2So tons,

SHODDY AGAINST HONESTY.

The Grcsvenor bill may become pop
ular with congressman. 1t may be re-
sorted to under conditions when a re-
of the tariff generally may fail.
The bill meets with much opposition
from the manufacturers, because 1t
compels them to make their goods so
as to show precisely the amount OF
shoddy and sham used in their
production. This is Just what the
greedy fellows do not wish to ap-
pear. Goods are so adulterated now.
and cotton is so much used as a substi-
tute for wool that manufacturers are
bitterly against any attempt to force
them to sail under genuine colors. If
the bill should become a law, then the
merchants and consumers would earn
no little Of the wickedness n pre-
tence of the monopolists with their huge
protective tariff to cover them and
shield them. 1t is not their desire that
the toiling millions should have any
