A SILLY CANARD.

As a rule, if you want to read silly
canards about politics in the South,
watch for interviews from visiting
statesmen" in the Washington papers.
Men who have no influence or power at
home, put on fine clothes at the capital,
talk like a Sir Oracle, and fool reporters
into believing they are "some pumpkins"
at home and they print their opinions as
if they were worth going into type The
latest canard from Washington appears
in the Washington Star, which has been
querading as a person of Importance at
the capital. Here is the canard:
1.-The North Carolina Republicans are
depending upon much strong support from
what is known as the Carr element of
Democrats in North Carolina"
Usually there is a grain of truth in
in this instance it is a lie out of the
whole cloth. Take Wake county, as an
Illustration: General Carr received
1885 votes in the Senatorial primary and
Mr.. Simmons received 2,544. Nobody
could tell today from the earnest advo-
cacy of the Democratic ticket whether
any man voted for Simmons or for Carr.
They vie with each other in working for
Democratic success, and if any feeling
was engendered during the primary there
is not a trace of it left.
But every claim of the Republicans as
to success in North Carolina is based
upon stuff with no more foundation than
this canard.

THE BEST SIGN.

The best evidence that the people are
deeply interested in the educational cam
paign in North Carolina is the increased
attendance upon the schools and colleges
of the State. All have opened we'll and
the spirit of education is everywhere felt
for the uplift of the children OF the COM
monwealth.
The hope of North Carolina lies in the
education of it's children. Above politics
above business, above trade, above every
thing else, are the children of the State
If they are taught, they will create wealth
and North Carolina will become great
and powerful. If they are neglected
North Carolina cannot lead in the sister,
hood Of States in progress and pros
perity.
The crowding of the children and tho
youth into the schools and colleges means
more for North Carolina than all the
political speeches and the humming OF
cotton mills IN our borders.

WAS GIVEN THE COLI SHOULDER

Allusion was made yesterday to the
contrast between the great Democratic
convention at Greensboro, composed of
twelve hundred delegates, chosen by
100000 voters, and the self constituted
convention of bakers dozen Radicals
calling themselves Hill Democrats, who
met to fight the head of the Democratic
State ticket.
Attempts had been made to get a
large gathering at Greensboro on Thurs
dav. An emissary of the Radical Annex
had been travelling over parts of the
State trying to induce anti-Clark Demo
Gratis to attend the meeting. He visited
one large town in Piedmont North
Carolina and as soon as he reached the
hotel he wrote a note to prominent
citizen who had been opposed to the
nomination of Judge Clark, and asked
him to call at the hotel to see him or
important business The gentleman
at once called The emissary disclosed
leading Democrats, known to be not in
sympathy with Judge Clark, with a
view to securing large attendance al
the Greensboro meeting. When the ennis
sary had finished, the prominent either

ton met in Greensboro l was the strong

convention voted to nominate Judge

He is the nominee of the great Demo
cratic party. AS such, he is entitled to
the support of every Democrat in the
State. No Democrat can join hands with
the Republicans to defeat him or any
other nominee of the party. Good-by.
From the little crowd present at
Greensboro it seems that all the anti
Clark Democrats initiated the honorable
example of the gentleman quoted above
and gave the cold-shoulder to the
peripatetic anti-Clark Radical emissary,
travelling about calling himself Demo
crat while working day and night to
help the Radical party.
The sentiment of the gentleman quoted
is the sentiment of every anti-Clark
Democrat in the State. They fought him
in the primaries and voted against him
in the State Convention. But they sub

THE TRUSTS AND A CONSTITU-
TIONAL AMENDMENT.
baltimore Sun.

Baltimore Sun.
Mr.. Livingston, Democratic member
of the House of Representatives from
Georgia, is quoted as saying that an
amendment to the Constitution giving
Congress the power to regulate corpora
tions or trusts can never be passed. 1T
would strike at the foundation of state
hood" he said, 1.-THE States would never
give up their right in favor of Con-
gress." If all the Southern States
should take this same view of it, that
would defeat such an amendment, even
if it should pass both houses of Con-
gress by the requisite majority and be
ratified by all the Northern and Western
States. The negative vote of twelve
States will defeat Constitutional
Amendment 1t is considered no more
probable, however, that the Northern
States would ratify a trust amendment
than that the Southern States would.
New Jersey, for instance, gains enough
revenue from Incorporating trusts to
support the State government and it is
believed that State will not surrender
such gold mine to Congress.
In this connection it is regarded by
many as a curious assumption that in or
der to crush the trusts or make them
good it is only necessary to give Con-
gress the power to do so. 1t must DE
confessed that such an assumption rests
upon an invisible foundation. 1t is not
at all unlikely that large proportion
of the Senators and many members OF
the House are large holders OF trust
stocks. In the past, Congress has been
the best and most consistent friend OF
the trusts In the matter of the Cuban
Reciprocity bill at the last session it was
shown that the agent of one of the
Youngest and smallest of the whole fam
ily of trusts welded more power in Con-
eress than the President of the United
States could WELD with all his patron
age. Congress now maintains and fos-
tiers the mother of trusts from which
thsv derive their northumberland
the protective tariff-and they refuse to
impair its usefulness to the monopolies.
These facts and many others that could
be mentioned seem to sustain the con-
tention that if Congress had the power
to regulate trusts that power would be
used rather to aid them than to cripple
sthem In the meantime the trusts do not
seem to be unduly alarmed andA Standard
Oil stock does not go begging for pur-
chaser when there is any for sale, and

THE END OF FACTION.

The result of the recent State prim-
aries in South Carolina seems to indicate
that the old division of "Reformer" and
Conservative" in South Carolina has
come to an end. and that the Democrats
are united uDon a broader basis than
faction. Senator Tillman took no part
whatever in the contests, and no attempt
was made by real leaders to continue the
old divisions. When McLaurin began to
champion Republican policies he assumed
that he would get the solid "Conserva-
tive" vote because of its old time hatred
of Tfllman. In this assumption he reck-
oned without knowledge. The "Conser-
vative' voters like the "Reformer" voters
care more for the advancement of the
Democratic principles than for factional
advantage. They were the strongest an
tagonists of McLaurinism. Without
agreeing with Senator Tillman, they stand
with him in the fight against McLaurin-
izing the Democratic party of Calhoun's
echo of Republicanism. That agreement
upon fundamental principles opened the
way for breaking down the old barriers
of 1890, which had already in many places
fallen down.
The Spartanburg Journal, summing up
the result of the election shows that
there was factional victory. 1t says:
IAN examination of the list of the sue
cessful candidates in Tuesdays primary

A MORNING TONIC.
Senator Hoar.)

Experience has convinced a majority
of our people that rest from labor OF
one day in seven is not only desirable,
but essential for the mental and bodily
health of men and women in general. A
great many persons think that that day
of rest ought to be devoted to a consid-
Grafton of spiritual interests of the rela-
ton of man to his Creator and the hopes
of future state, to the religious train
ing of the young and the religious i'm
provement of persons of mature age.
The State has the right, | think, to Sc
cure the period of rest by law. There
is the same right to do it that there is
to secure the quiet of the night.

TRUE. BUT THIS DOES NOT JUSTIFY
CHILD LABOR.
Norfolk Yirginian-P PHO

Norfolk Virgln1an-PlloC
According to the census reports, there
were in 1900 24.459 children under 16
years of age employed in Southern mills.
OF this number it is safe to say not ten
thousand are under twelve years of age
about the average limit established by
law in States where child labor is regu
lated by law And of this ten Thousand
perhaps not three thousand are sub
iected to harsh conditions.
And this is the situation that moves
New England to sObs. In the city Of
Boston alone there are more 1ll-fed, ILL
kept. half-schooled, vice-taught children
than are employed in all the cotton mills
of the South-children whose condition
is infinitely worse in every way than the
condition of the average child employed
in a Southern cotton mill. Yet Boston
weeps for the latter and propagates the
former.
