LYNCHING IN OHIO.

There was a lynching in Springfe Id !,
Ohio, Monday night that rivals any
thing that has been seen in the South
OF course the section of country in
which it occurred does not make It
right, for lynching is just as deplora
bic in Ohio as ia North Carolina. But il
the same thing had occurred anywhere
in the South the Northern press would
have Illuminated against 1t with un-
measured vehemence.
A negro killed policeman who was
trying to hinder the negro from kill
ing a negro woman. He was promptly
jailed but did not remain long und;s-
turbed. A mob of three thousand PEG
pie pressed to the Jail and forced it open
with battering rams of heavy irons, and
after knocking the negro down shot
him dead. Then they took him to a
prominent corner in the town, swung
him to a telephone or telegraph pole
and flied bis body with bullets.
We say this wss all wrong, but VIC
are only emphasizing the fact that it
occurred in Ohio.

WHYDIDN'TH HE ADVERTISE IT?

THE COMMONWEALTH has no cause
to "talK shop" about advertising, io1
Its columns carry about as much ad.
vertising matter as can be we'll handled
and about as much as we care to have
bu: we we're impressed recently with
how little merchants appreciate the
opportunity they haye of putting their
goods before the public at very
small cost.
A prominent citizen of the town
met us On the street carrying on his
arm bundle of goods which he had
bought at grocery store. He remark.
ed, as he passed, II have here what ]
have been wanting for long time but
did not know where to find it. If the
merchant had advertised it I would
have bought it long ago."
Fifty cents would haye advertised
the article which perhaps a dozen PEG
pie would have been glad to buy had
they known where to find it.

MR.. KITCHIN PEPPERED MR.
SCOTT.

A few days ago during debate in
Congress, Representative Scott from
Kansas had something to say about
the Bassett-B Booker Washington cpl
sode, when the following sparring &C.
CURED between him and Hon. Claude
Kltchin
Mr.. Claude Kitchin-I would like to
say to the gentleman in justice to my
colleague that the faculty did rebuke
this professor for making the utter
ance, but did say that he had right
to it as enjoying the liberty of free
speech.
Mr.. Scott-They rebuked him for
making the utterance, but they did not
attempt to say the utterance was not
true. They rebuked him because they
were forced to do so by the public sem
timent round about.
Mr.. Kitchin-The gentleman who
uttered it afterwards explained and said
he did not mean it.
Mr.. Scott-That Is a question for the
gentleman and his colleague to decide
between themselves.
Mr.. Kltchin-He said he did not
mean to say that he was the greatest
man the South ever produced except
Lee, but the greatest negro. Why
does not the gentleman receive him !,
having black skin?
Mr.. Scott-We do receive him.
Mr.. Kitchin-Does the gentleman
mean to say that he receives him as
his equal?
Mr.. Scott-Not as my social equal.
Mr.. Kitchin-The black skin is the
cause of 1t, is 1t not?
Mr.. Scott-The black skin, and the
prejudice, and all that. I recognize
that as fully as the gentleman does.
Mr.. Kitchin--We are alike then.
The gentleman has the same prejudice
that we have an account of the skin.
There is no difference between us on
that.
Mr. Scott am not standing here
to make plea Tor social equality. /
do not stand for that any more than
Theodore Roosevelt did when he in
vlted Booker Washington to his lunch
con, and any more than Grover Cleve-
land did when he invited G. III. J..
Taylor to bis luncheon. Who is Tay-
Tor? He is black negro, as black as
you ever saw. For the reason that he
lad promised to turn the negro vote in
Kansas to the Democratic party he was
brought here by some Democratic lead
ers, taken to the White House, intro
duced to the president, seated at his
table and afterwards was paid the
price by receiving the appointment OF
register of deeds of the district.
Mr.. Kltchln-Does the gentleman
approve OF Grover Cleveland asking
that negro to dine with him, and
dining with him? Does the gentle
man approve of that?
Mr.. Scott do not approve of it ba-
cause know the character of the man.
[ would not have invited him to my
house il he was white man
Mr.. Kitchin--Becauss be is Demo-
cratic negro, ism t it?
Mr.. Scott-It is because the man is
utterly without character, education,
culture or anything to commend him
to the consideration of gentleman.
Mr.. KltcAin-Who introduced tia.
negro to the PRESIDENT The gentle
man said his colleague was present
when 1t was done.
Mr.. Scott said my colleague was
cognizant of the fact.
Here the speaker raped the gavel,
the time OF the gentleman from Kansas
having unfortunately expired.

FIRE IN ROCKY MOUNT.

On Tuesday night of Last week mar
~ half OF one OF the principal business
blocks OF Rocky Mount was burned.
The post Office, the Bank of Rocky
Mount, the Masonic temple, the opera
house and some valuable stores we're
burned. The fire ragged from clever
O'Clock until two. The loss was given
at ninety thousand dollars, with fairly
good insurance, though the entire loss
was not covered.
There was a second fire the same
night In another block further south,
and there were strong suspicious that
the last fire was the work of an incen-
diary. There was strong smell of oil
about the fire. Indeed, there was some
suspicion that both fires were the work
OF an incendiary, as there could be no
plausible theory given for the first fire.

MR. WEBB THE HERO.

Hon. e. Y. Webb, Representative in
Congress from Shelby, was the hero OF
a day in Congress last week. The
charge had been made unblushingly
that President Cleveland dined negro
in the White House. Mr.. Webb went
about refuting the statement in a way
that proved quite effactual. He wrote
to Mr.. Cleveland to ascertain the facts.
He read Mr.. Clevaland's fiat denial be-
fore the House, and made quite hit
and was the recipient OF many congrat-
ulations from the Democratic side.
Here is Mr.. Cleyeland's reply 10 Mr..
Webb's letter of inquiry:
"Princeton, N. j., March 2, O4.
Hon. f. Y. Webb, House of Repre-.
sentatives
"Dear Sir: 1t is matter OF small
concern to me that Mr.. Scott has
zen tit to u@e my name in display OF
his evil propensitles on the floor of the
:1ouse OF Representatives.
"In answer to your inquiry, however,
l have to say of his statement that the
colored man, G. III. ]. Taylor, took
lunch with me at the White House,
hat it is deliberate fabrication out of
The whole cloth.
Gas far as Mr.. Taylor is concerned,
understood prior to his appointment as
register of deeds at Washington, that
i'e bad served as an assistant in the
flee of the city attorney at Kansas
City. His nomination IS register was
confirmed by the Senate and he served
ii that place with intelligence and
efficiency. He has since died. Some
l'aople restrain themselves from abus.
ing the dead.
"My inquiries concerning Mr.. Tay-
Isr before his appointment, my obser.
yation of him during his incumtency
.;1d the little | have known of him
since, satisfied me that his character Is
very unjustly attacked in the diatribe
vi Mr.. Scott.
Zone charge is made against Mr.
Taylor by Mr.. Scott, which he doubly
c'lncbes with truth when he declares
re was black negro I am led
however, to doubt his familiarity with
his subject when he adds, sas black az

NO REAL FIGHTING YET.

Occasionally the papers tell OF an al
legged attack on the Russians by the
japanese, but it is hard to keep any
connected story of the war. The fol-
lowing interesting statement was sent
out by the associated press from st.
Petersburg few days ago:
"Although almost four weeks have
elapsed since the Japanese first attack
ed Port Arthur, here the war is consid-
cred hardly to have begun.
Heavy land lighting upon which
the fate of the campaign depends, is
not expected much before the last OF
April.
"By this time Rus STA will have In
the fed, exclusive Of tie large army
required to guard the railroads, tour
army corps, each with cavalry diyis-
ion and an artillery brigade. All t.lat
has happened 90 far, CT is going to
happen unit! these t;rces are il the
field, is considered, according to the
Russian view, to be nothing more than
the prologue to the real drama.
LIZ h!!Esid11S are UeCefui0eu To Ut
fend Port Arthur AS heroically as they
did Sebastopo. No large garrison Will
be retained there; ten thousand men
are as good as one hundred thousand
for defence, while the mora men the
more mouths to feed. There are
enough provisions now to last for eight
months. In addition there will be a
division Of Cossacks, With mountain
batteries, on the peninsula to oppose
landing and harass the enemy if they
succeed in investing the city.
"Viceroy A.exieff still retains bis
headquarters at Mukden, through
which three thousand or four thousand
soldiers are passing daily to the posi-
tons which the main army will oc.
cupy.
'The Russians do not contemplate
taking any chances on the score OF in
ferior nuuters. By sheer weight Of
;nen and guns it nothing else, when
the proper time arrives, Russians
count on overwhelming the japanese
and rolling them back through Korea"

NO BETTER THAN NORTH CAR
OLINA.

Mr.. J. w. Bell, who sends The CON-
MoNwEALTa a renewal subscription
from Port Townsend, Washington, says
that while times are good out there
they are no better than in old North
Carolina. Saw mills and rum shops,
he says, care on the BOOM" Mr.. Bell
says there is no Sunday there, but
work all the time.
And that is about the way most OF
the young men who have gone away
from North Carolina feel after they
have been cut Of the State while.
North Carolina truly is good place
to llye, some times one thinks good
place to leave but always a coed place
to come back to-and Mr.. Bell thinks
he Will come home sometime this year.

THE PRICE OF WOOD.

Some DAYS ago the editor OF THE
COMMONWEALTH asked some gentlemen
who are familiar with the wood and
lumber situation in this community If
there is any good reason why the price
of wood should be so high here. They
answered that thers was not. One OF
the gentlemen said that the chief rea-
son for the high price OF wood is the
fact that it is hard to get it cut and
prepared for market. He said further
that there is mistaken idea here
about the kind of wood that is utilized.
Most persons, he said, think only of
using pine or oak wood, but the gum
maple, poplar, and other kinds OF
wood found in the creeks aud swamps
are just as good as oak and pine.

DISPEHSART FOP GREENTILLE

Greanyille voted last week On dis
pensary and the dispensary was carried
by one vote.
The fight was warm yet with not
much bitterness as it appeared at this
distance. Editor Whlchard OF the
Reflector fought manfully for the dis
pensary. He was once assaulted by a
saloon man, for which Mr.. Whichard
took a crack with a pistol, but FORUM
ately neither the assault nor the shot
did any damage.
Tighter and tighter the temperance
sentiment In the State is drawing the
cords around the open saloon. 1t will
not be long before its lite will puff out.
