LEE ABOVE REPROACH.
Newport News Times-Herald.

The recent structures upon the
career OF Gen. Robert f. Lee from
the mouth of Gen. James ii. Wilson
befort Q grand army audience are
only ai11using-nothing more.
Even though they came from some
other man who had not stultitied him
self by speaking one way in the South
and another before the G. A. R., there
would be nothingin in what he said but
as Gen. Wilson goes he has simply
made himself ridiculous i'll the eyes
of all men. Gen. Wilson once spoke
from the same platform with Mckin-
ley during the Spanish war period in
Alabama, and the Atlanta Journal
prints the following in connection
with Gen. Wilson's S recent speech:
But the gentle-spirited Mckinley
is dead He who, during his term OF
Office, did SO much to re-establish a
common respect and patriotism be-
tween the blue and the gray, and
eschewed every temptation to pro
long the causes of bitterness between
the sections, sleeps beneath immor-
telles at tCanton-revereda and mourn
ed by the valiant and true hearted O1
| every home from ocean to ocean,
from the Lakes to the Gulf. His
compelling example of mutual re-
spect and honor between those once
embattled is no longer with us, nc
longer remembered by those who
serve the exigencies of time and pan
der to their personal purposes and
prejudices.
We do not know what Gen. Wilson
is seeking-notoriety simply, an office
from the Grand Army, or further pre-
ference from the administration.
But whatever it is. ne has shown
himself unworthy of it and OF any
further right to associate with brave
and fair-minded men. His gratuitous
assault upon the memory OF Lee was
as mean as it will be futile. Jus1
men of the nation have already voted

Americans in the Hall of Fame o

great men of the North have spOkel
his praise in no unstinted words O

Happily the fame of Lee ha

FIGURES DON'T LIE.
Wilmington Messenger.

The republicans are talking all the
time about the great prosperity OF
the country. Prosperity is their bat
tle-cry during this campaign. The
whole country is prosperous, they
say. and they point to the alleged
increase in wages of the labOring
class as one of the causes as well rs
one OF the evidences OF this universal
prosperity which they boast of as
the result of republican legislation
and republican administration OF the
affairs Of the government. They say
that whenever labor gets plenty OF
work and is we'll paid then there is
bound to be prosperity and that the
country is now witnessing both these
happy conditions.
These republicans have been given

is on account of the report issued by

mess OF pap" This is the conclud-
ing sentence of an editorial in the E.
City Economist, paper which is Old
enough to know better. AS sure as
YOU are born mistake is being made
in the method of treatment OF the
North Carolina independents. Very
few if any of them have sold their
birthright for pap or anything else;
| few of them are candidates for office
or ever will be. They are among the
| most substantial men OF the State
| farmers, business men, men OF all Oc-
cupatiOns. who are after nothing eX-
ceDt suitable men in office and just
laws equally administered. They are
in large part the men who in past

and done the work for the Democratic
party. This year the party has put
up some candidates which they are
not going to vote for and-they are
not going to do it. When it is pro
Iposed to brand them as "deserters"
they laugh; every time the party
whip cracks they snap their fingers.
They have never yet bowed their
heads to anybody except God Al
mighty and they will not ne bullled
lhis year or swerved from their pur-
pose to vote as they please. We are
not talking OF the mercenaries or
sOre-heads among them, and there
doubtless are such, but OF the great
mass of independents who are With,
