consequences of their folly. Why
should the people envy these
captains Of industry?
Monopoly is the child of Com
petition and it must remain W it'll
us until it grows old, and gives
birth to another system. Wheth
cr the coming system shall be
better for humanity remains with
the people to choose. The world
must progress; evolution must go
on, and although the trusts are
to some extent detrimental to
the masses of the people, we
must admit that we enjoy more of
the good things of life than did
our forefathers, for the trust h as
abolished the waste of competition
and is organizing industry to
such perfection that very little
effort Is required to produce the
of life l. is estimat-
ed that to,day, one man can-with
the help of the methods adopted
by the trusts-prOduce more
wealth than forty seven men
could before Monopoly came into
it is therefore plain that
il the man who works could re-
3eive the full equivalent Of his
toll, poverty would be unknown,
and the labOrer, who now obtains
,nly II per cent of the results of
lis labor would be able to retain
he other So per cent, instead of
giving that amount to monopoly

REPUTATION IN ADVERTISING.
How Some Brands Are Made to
ConnOte the Poduct as a Whole.

Why is it that, when baking
powder is mentioned, the names
of one or two brands at once come
to my mind; why, when soap is
spoken of, do people think of a
certain few kinds? Or,when sarsa
parilia or root beer are being dis
cussed, why is it that nine out Of
ten people will name the same
makers7
It's because all have been so
constantly and thoroughly adver
tised that their Ma mes have be-
come household words. And the
same can be said of scores Of other
articles of every description.
They have been advertised day
after day and year after year in
the newspapers and the magazines
ana by Otnef means.
Speak of New York or Boston
and certain immense stores are
suggested. Why9 They adver-
tise, and, like the makers of bak
ing powders, soaps and proprietary
articles, spend thousands of dol
lars every year advertising. They
use the newspapers freely because
they can put their announcements
before people more frequently.
quickly and cheaply than by the
other measures which they employ
as an adjunct to their newspaper
advertising.
In every city there are several
concerns which are the largest in
their respective lines. They are
known by everybody in town and
IN the surrounding territory. It'll
will be observed that these con-
Germs are liberal users of news.

advertisements appear practically

1t is 10y means of their advertis-

It is possible for any merchant ,

fact that on Friday of last week

NEWS AND OBSERVER ATTACKS PAS
TOR BAPTIST TABERNACLE.
Such Attack il an Injustice to the

by his COngre CATION.

Such an Attack il an Injustice to the
Baptists of Raleigh-The Pastor Upheld
by his Congregation.
Fayetteville, n. c., Sept. 8, '03
Mr.. Editor: infamous attack
Of JOsepheus Daniels, editor of the
News Il Observer, upon the Rev. J.
G.. Massee, pastor of the Tabernacle
Baptist Church Of Raleigh, is with
out parallel. The motive which
prompted the attack is damnable in
every sense of the word. The OBJ
ject was to destroy the influence of
DR.. Massee and the Baptist Taber-
nacle church, sectarianism being one
of his motives and it is an insult
to every Baptist in North Carolina.
His other object was to excite and
stir up prejudice among the whites
and negroes in the State that he
might further his political schemes.
There is not negro that would
have ever heard of DIR. Massee's ut
terances at the Tabernacle prayer
meeting if it had not been for such
infamous dirty sheets as the News
4 Observer, which publish it with
flaming head lines.
1t is a we'll known fact that the
laborer both white and black is not
paid we'll in the South, and no man
with thimble full of brains will
dare to take issue with DR.. Massee
along that line.
Racial prejudice would be I'M
known in the South, if it were not
magnified a thousand times and
published by such papers as the
News & Observer and it's ilk.
1t was predicted throughout the
country that Joe Daniels and his
hoodlums would run DR.. Massee out
of Raleigh, which was without
doubt the object in view, but ii
seems that the News & Observer
did not succeed in forcing DR..
Massee to raise a dust down the
pike, he stood like stonewall with
the endorsement of the Tabernacle
Baptist church behind him.
In publishing DIR. Massee's reply
the News d Observer, in trying to
cover up his tracks published an
article from the Charlotte Observer
trying to deceive the people, and
have them believe that the News &
Observer did not attack DR., Massee
and the Baptists of North Carolina.
There is day reckoning in the
near future for such papers as the
News & Observer, and its dirty and
infamous methods.

A BLOODY RECORD.

Governor Aycock said under
Fusion rules that crime stalked
abroad at MONDAY, sleep lay down
with alarm and the sound Of the
pistol shot was more frequent than
a song of q hooking bird. Read and
see who is responsible for the pre-
condition of lawlessness in the State
"Judge Bryan then remarked that
he had it on the best authority that
in North and South Carolina for the
past few years there were more MUIR
ders in proportion to population
than elsewhere in the United States,
aud that If the same average were
maintained all over the United
States, the number of murders for
the past year in this country would
have been $4,000 more people than
were killed in the Philippines and
Cuba during the late wal" Fay
etteville Observer.
We are told these are the days of
good government. We would like
to ask, Is this carnival of murders,
which this Judge, who by the way
Is Democrat from Craven county,
speaks Of one of the essential lngre-
dients of good government? We
would like to ask one more question,
which is, if increased taxes. the sale
Of bonds to pay running expenses,
homicides, murders, rapes and lynch
ings, constitute good government.
what constitutes bad?-Union Re
publican.
