INCREASE OF TEN WEEKS.

Tho Democrats during the past ten
years have spent $847, 2S5.0S more for
public schools than the Re-poplicans
spent fer the previous four years. The
record Of the number of weeks of pub
lie schools shows even better for the
Democrats. The first year of Fusion rule.
1895, the schools were in part conducted
by the Democratic officials and the length
of the term was 1912 weeks. In 1897 the
Fusionists had full control, and the length
of the school term for white children
went down TO 1173 weeks. Under Demo-
cratic rule the number of weeks has now
come to 16.4S, nearly two and half
weeks more than the highest term under
Fusion ard nearly five weeks more than
when Fusion county officials were in FULL
est control and management
This record is one showing beyond
oavil that the Democratic party has kept
it's pledge as to public schools. They
are the mud-s sill Of the wholc structure
Of the Commonwealth.

CAUSE MUST PRECEDE EFFECT

The average man who hears Senator
Pritchard speak would suppose that it
was the Wilson German tariff that
brought on the panic of 1893. AS mat
ter of fact that bill did not become
law until sixteen months after the panic
began. A baby would know that the
panic of 1898 could not be caused by
bill of 1894 The panic began under the
Mckinley tariff law. If Pritchard's meth
cd OF reasoning had any logic in it, the
Mckinley tariff law caused the panic OF
1893, which really began before Harri-
sons term expired. The truth is there
was worldwide panic in 1898. affecting
England and all Europe as acutely as It
did the United States. Whatever the
cause, the 1894 tariff law did not cause

ABOUT JOINT DEBATES .

There are two widely differing opinions
in North Carolina about joint debates
among Democrats. There are many who
believe they do no good at the best and
that they often do harm Others be-
lieve strongly in them. Among that
class is the editor of the Roanoke Cho-
wan Times. who says:
1--WE heartily approve the joint discus
sion of the political issues of the day by
Senator Pritchard and Hon. Locke Craig.
When issues are discussed jointly in this
way there is less temptation to exaggera-
ton. The people are honest and want
the truth. We need more joint discus
sionS."
One of the strongest arguments urged
against such debates, particularly in
Eastern North Carolina is that they
serve to give Pritchard an audience OF
respectable men who would not go to
hear him or any other Republican speak
er who spoke alone in their community.
They say that it dignifies Radicalism
and does no good
Few votes are ever made in joint de-
bate. They often serve the good pur-
pose of lining up the parties and causing
them to put on their fighting clothes.

GOOD FOR MR.. EDWARDS.

Every now and then some prominent
Republican says that the best thing that
could happen to the Republicans would
he to lose the House this fall, and some
able Democrats, speaking of their par.
~. have given expression to the same
sentiment. The truth is that a Demo-
cratic victory this fall would give a
great impetus to success in 1904, and Re-
publican defeat would be a setback to
the Republican prospects in the next Ma
tional election.
Secretary Edwards, of the Democratic
Congressional Committee, gives time
" rebuke to those few Democrats who
prefer defeat to success. He is quoted
as saying:
eff the Democrats win this House, and
the Presidential election of 1904 should
be so close it would have to be thrown
into the House for decision, we would
have the coming machinery.
ANY Democrat who says we ought not
to win the House, thereby getting into
the winning habit, for the reason that he
is afraid the Democracy might do some
thing that would lose the confidence OF
the country and endanger success in 1904
practically admits that the party has not
enough sense to be intrusted with power

HAS WRITTEN his EPIrAPH.

The man nominated for the House In
Cumberland county yesterday who said
that he was a Democratic legislator In
1884 and voted for Vance, but would take
greater pleasure in voting for Pritchard,
demonstrated that there is falling from
grace in politics. He also made certain
his defeat Upon that issue he will be
beaten /, 900 in Cumberland. He deserves
to be defeated overwhelmingly. The North
Carolinian who would put Pritchard above
Vance shows that there is something
radically wrong in his makeup, and his
election would be reflection upon the in
telligence and patriotism OF the county
that elected him. In that declaration.

THE METHODISTS AND THE
CATHOLICS.

THE Methodists in this country are
about four million strong. They love God
and hate Catholics"
The above is what the Reverend Samuel
P. Jones is reported recently to have said
about the church in which he is a peri
patetic minister. If Sam Jones is correct
in this statement, he might have changed
it to read:
THE Methodists in this country are
about four million strong They may look
for all their good time on this earth for
they will never get to Heaven No man
who hates his fellows can love God"
The last statement is true il the first
be accepted as true AS matter of fact
the first is a SANDER upon four million
of good people-simply nothing more and
nothing less. II it had been uttered by
a minister of any other church, or by a
Methodist preacher who does not care
more for sensation than for accurate
statement, the Methodists would have all
been indignant. AS it is they put it down
simply as one of Sam Jones's extravagant
Sayings" and take the view that nobody
will attach Importance to it.
The Methodsts do not believe in the
Catholic creed or the Catholic mode OF
worship. If they did they would join the
Catholic church BY the same token the
Catholics do not believe in the Methodist
creed or the Methodist mode of worship.
IL they did they would join the Methodist
church. But they both believe in heart
religion, in walking uprightly, in doing
good to their fellows, in the same Savior
of mankind. Good Catholics and good
Methodists, instead OF hating each other
love one another as brethren. 1t shocks
/ the ideal of Christian love and Fellowship
to hear a minister even an erratic one
declare that the members of the largest
religious denomination in America hate
the next largest. If this were true
! Christianity would be dishonored in this
Christian land.

IT PAYS STATE POLITICIANS TO
BE PELTEU WITH STALE
EGGS.

Much has been said about the recent
case of Seawell VS.. the Carolina Cen
Railroad, tried in Moore county last
week. In 1900 Mr.. Seawell was cam
made an extensive canvass of the State.
His speeches breathed the essence of the
malevolence and lowness of his party.
For his insulting and offensive language,
he received severe treatment at Shelby
in pelting of eggs, stale and other
wise. Up to this good hour nobody has
been found who regretted the action. 1t
was universally admitted, even by those
who regretted that the young men egged
the speaker, that he deserved all he got.
Why? Because in a speech in Shelby
he used these words:
IF / take a piece of clay in my hand
and call it a Democrat, when / open
my hand ] would not know whether to
expect to find a yellow dog or a jack
ass"
1t is rather surprising that the spirit
ed good people of Shelby let off a man
who thus demeaned himself with the
light punishment of being rotten-e gged
out of town. His disgusting language
ought to have won him, and did win for
him, the contempt of all decent people
who heard him. Some of the younger
men who heard his insulting words
egged him as he was leaving the station
And now Seawell is himself clad that
he was eg"ed, for he has won his suit
against the railroad and has secured a
verdict of 81, 500 because of the egging.
He wasn't the only man who went about
the State abusing the best folks in il
in 1893 and in 1900. Unless barred by
the statute of limitations. we may ex-
pect to see the court dockets crowded
with suits brought by stale politicians
against railroads because an outraged
people pelted them with stale eggs be-
cause OF their vile ISLANDERS.
There is another danger: If State poll
ticians may sue and recover big sums
because they were egged in the past
may not other demagogues invite fresh
egging by similar disgusting speeches
to the end that they may get $4,000?

THE SAVING IN SCHOOL BOOKS

In his speech at Joncsboro, Hon. r. d.
Gilmer, Attorney General, emphasized
the great work done by the Democratic
administration for the education OF the
children OF the State. Among other
things he gave the figures showing that
in the matter of text books the people
have saved during one year $13l, 7O1.61 by
reason of the passage OF the Aycock
School Commission bill and the action
of the Commission.
Nobody contends that the resent ad-
ministration has been free from mistake.
but the record shows in every particular
that it has been honest true TO its
pledges, progressive and worthy of en-
dorsement.
