Fair Play.

The following from The Charlotte
News:
LAS there is a systematic attempt
among a certain class Of newspapers
in this state to falsify the facts and
mislead the people and even to nullify
as far as possible any good results that
NAV be observed in the operation Of
he dispensary and saloon laws in the
towns in North Carolina an effort that
challenges the scorn of men and the
judgment of Heaven, it is just as we'll
to point out now and then that the sa-
loon, as a temperance promoter, is not
IAN unqualified success"
We never could understand why a
reputable paper should make such a
statement as the first clause of the
above. If The News knows whereof
it speaks, according to this papers
code of ethics it should proceed at once
to give the facts, naming names and
giving particulars. If there is "a sys-
tematic attempt among a certain class
Of newspapers of this state to falsify
| the facts AAdentslead the people," it is
a wrong, ~e- News being in pos
| session of tnN3~ks, should denounce it.
Not being in possession of such evil
dence. The News should make no such
charge.
At least that is The Re1ector's view
of the matter. We may add that our
position on the whiskey question has
been so we'll known for a quarter Of a
century no sane person can charge us
with taking the observation of The
News to ourselves.

At the next congress Oklahoma,
New Mexico, Arizona and the In
dian Territory will be admitted as
states if they can prove they are
republican and not democratic.
The injustice that has been done
in shelving the statehood matter
is seen upon consideration of the
fact that Oklahoma with Indian
Territory would have a population
of nearly 100000, and would
rank as twenty.eight among the
forty.iive states, or ahead Of four
teen states already in the union.

do not propose recommend any man for the place, or to decry the merits real or alleged of any. The different candidates well known and Nome is not such large community nor one so guileess that the weaknesses of most utterly unknown. If a is successful business man; if he have conduct ed his private business in manner to command the respect and confidence of the community if his record
 for fair dealing and honesty be clean, ordinarily he should make good public official. If he have not these requisites he should be rejected as worthless timber.
 Nome's financial condition needs mending; no one, we assume will deny this statement; how to remedy it will require good judgment and demand careful execution. The people already burdened heavily with United States and municipal taxation and they are not in position to carry much added weight. From the twelve more men who are candidates for
 the council it ought to be possible to select seven who will do their duty they see it. If this be done Nome will emerge from the load of debt now carried without sustaining permanent injury
