Politics dull, except an occasional
patriot (?) turns up and says he is
right, and all the world besides is
wrong. Such folks who know it ALL

There are two things never quar-
rel with Il man about if he is sincere,
and that his politics and his religion.
However widely we may differ or
to whatever extremes they may carry
him, heterodoxy or orthodoxy in
these regards are matters for the ST.
preme intelligence alone. and he who
erects Il standard by which to deter
mine them for Others assumes the
role OF Il partisan and Il bi"ot. The
road which man cOnscientiOuslv
believes in and persistently adheres
to is the one for him to take and no
one has the right to criticiso him for
following it.

cool. Elect good men and sQuelch

JUDGE SCHENCk AND Ills WORK

The State loses one Of her great
men in the death Of Judge David
Schenck, Of Greensboro. Lconine in
cast of countenance and nasterful in
purpose he was a born leader. In
his long and successful legal career
he WAS power before the jury. As
a Judge. he was able ana just. His
greatest and really inestimable ser
vice TO North Carolina, and through
her to the Matt on, is (for his work
will live after him) his magnificent
defense and vindication Of North
Carolina troops at the battle of Gull
ford Court House. in his historical
work. .'NDrth Carolina. 17S0-S1," and
his rescue from times obiiteratinr
hand the battle ground of Guilford,
and, after restoring it to the condi-
ton it was in on the day OF the great
Revolutionary conflict between Greene
and CORVALLIS, making OF it State
park where patriotism is forever e1-
allied. With meagre aid from indif-
ferent legislatures and with too little
encouragement and support from
the people. Judge Schenck succeeded.
nevertheless. in sweeping away ali
obstacles. and in permanently estab-
fishing this beautiful rallying ground
for those who love the old State and
her heroes. Few of the original
States which fought the Red Coats
out Of the ewlyformed Union, can
boast of such an institution as Gull
ford Battle Ground Park, and North
Carolina could not had it not been for
David Schenck. His book and his
battle ground are his monuments, He
is son who truly served his mother
State, and whose name will be carved
high in her tenn pie of fame.

TORE FOLLYOF THE NEGRORACE
Norfolk County Democrat.

The so-called Industrial and Agri-
cultural Association, a negro organi-
cation which met in Richmond few
days ago and decided to test the VA
lidity of the Virginia Constitution.
in our humble judgment. tackled
pretty tough proposition.
1t is pity that this association
did not contine its la bors to dealing
with matters pertaining to industrial
and agricultural topics instead Of en-
tering the realm of politics. The
negro has neither the mental ability
nor the training tn make him lead
er in the political arena. and if he
had both those requisites there are
other things which would still keep
him in the background. The advance
ment of the negro race in all those
qualities which 90 to make good citi-
zenship will be commensurate with
his advancement in the industrial and
agricultural arts, and the sooner
Sambo realizes that fact and quits
| tinkering with State Constitutions
and lets politics alone the better it
will be for his race.
Acting upon the advice OF John S.
| Wise. who by the way, doesn't care a
| rap for the negro race, this associa-
ton is now raising funds for the pur-
pose of bringing he question before
the Supreme Court Of the United
| States to decide whether the Consti
tuition of Virginia is in conflict with
the Federal Const itution. 1t has also
prepared and sent broadcast through
| out the State a remarkable address.
purporting to set forth the social and
political wrongs of the negroes for
which they demand redress.
OF course this movement to upset
the State Constitution will prove a
stupendous failure. but suppose it
should succeed, what would it profit
the negro? 1t would be the greatest
calamity that could befall him. 1t
would only widen the breach between
tho two races and create hostility
between them that would inevitably
rebound to the neyro's infinite harm.
A new convention would be called
and a new Constitution framed,
which in all probability would be less
favorable to the negro than the in
strumcnt under which he now lives.
When the negro can be brought to
realize that the Southern white man
is his best friend and that in order to
elevate his race he must devote his
energies to agriculture and the indus
trial trades instead of chasing politi-
cal rainbows, he will have taken a
long step in the right direction and
one that will lead to real and sub
stantial progress of his race.
