Spirit of the Press
The North Carolina Delegation at St.
Louis.

Fayetteville Observer.
Webster's Weekly admirably states
the cause of the recent Democratic
disaster. II adminisS ers a deserved re-
buke, to Senator Daniel and Mr.. John
Sharp Williams for kicking at the lin"
they thought was dead. that memora-
BILE night at the St. Louis convention.
In this connection the reader with
a memory will recall the attempt OF
the Brooklyn Eagle contingent III
North Carolina to belittle the North
Carolina delegation at ST. Louis be-
cause it did not make Itself conspicu-
Gus in evil doing as did Messrs. Dam
iel, Carmack, Tilllnan. and j. Sharp
Williams The result proves that
North Carolina could not have been
better represented than she was in the
men whom she sent as her representa-
tives to that convention--men who had
loyalty and dignity Ell ough, and de-
cency and pride enough, to refrain
from joining in the dis gushing clamor
against Bryan which the COMPRESSION
al coterie from Virginia, Tennessee,
Mississippi and South Carolina in
dulged in.
On the other hand, when Democ-
racy is militant, and its buglers sound
the charge, and not the retreat. North
Caroiinians know well how to serve
their State and country in the politi-
cal arena, anu, IlhG HeI wal 4 iol = are
ever found in the forefront of battle.
Thus. in that second declaration or
independence" at Chicago. in 1896,
her representative played very inn
portant part in the making OF that no.
table platform, and another eloquentiy
presented a candidate for Vice-presi-
dent, worthy to stand upon it, in the
person OF Judge Clark; while. at Kan
sas City, in 1900 she led the move
ment which put Stevenson on the
ticket with Bryan
The Brooklyn Eagle contingent. by
the way, hasn't had the decency to
make amends to our delegation since
the result has so signaily approved
their course.

There is Respectful Curiosity.
Durham Sun.

What is the object of the Presidents
projected campaign through the
South? Does he yearn after the en-
thusiastic appreciation of Georgia :?
Does he long to bind Texas to his tri-
umphant CHART wheels? Does he
banker after Yazoo bouquets? Or
does he merely want to find out what
colored people will make the most
satisfactory postmasters? We assure
his Strenuosity that there is a great
deal of respectful curiosity along these
lines about this time.

New Bern, n. c., Nov. 2S.-The

They both were formally residents

Mrs. Jordan was only sick for sew

from convulsion, caused by blood

The departed wife leaves husband

airing their views in the press just
now on the election. Most of them
assume that the South was hostile to
Roosevelt solely because of his negro
policy. That was really a. minor count
in the Indictment. The South was
generally opposed to Mr.. Roosevelt for
the same reasons that the New York
Evening Post, for instance, was op-
posed to him, namely: his violations
of the Constitution his stand pat pro-
lection declaration, his promotion of
extravaganza and his encouragement
of a spurious militarism.

MISPLACED FAITH.

The Washington Post has faith
greater than that in Israel, for in a
leading editorial on the revision of the
tariff it says ut is Coming and adds:
This reform is within reach OF the
consistent friends of protection we
think it will come in spite of the OPP
position of those who are enriched by
abuses of protection.
The Post seems to have a job-lot
of simple faith on hand just at this
time. A little later it will find that II
was wholly misplaced. 1t will flnd
that those enriched by the duties OF
protection will dictate the schedules
in any tariff bill that can get through
Congress just as they dictated the
schedules in the Mckinley and Dingley
acts

An Evasion of Taxing Laws.

IaylorSVlile Scout.
We hope our next Legislature will
put a stop to travelling shows giving
entertainments for churches in order
to es cape the tax. They usually give
10 per cent. to some church and laugh
at the sheriff. The church does the
advertising and, nine times out of ten,
abuses the local editor for not giving
more space to putting the thing before
it comes. Then if it turns out to be
fraud which is usually the case the
church members cuss the newspaper
that dares to tell the world that they
have been taken in one time more.

The Baltimore Sun thinks the ap-
pointment of a Southern man to a
place in President RooseveH's next
Cabinet would be a fitting tribute to
the square-deal policy. If a Southern
man is named, he should be a South
ern man sure enough. Heretofore the
so-called Southern men in the Cabi-
net have generally been Vermonters

Cndf1OtIc5 news.
The News wishes to join hands with
the press of the State in congratula-
ting Brother Daniels, or rather his
lady editors upon making such a
marked success of the Woman'S Edi-
ton of the News and Observer. which
was published Thanksgiving day. We
have always had a pet theory that
women express their thoughts either
orally or in writing much better than
man can do. Whether or not this is
due to the fact that they practice more
incessantly is, of course, another ques-
ton. Certainly this woman's edition
is further proof of our theory.
The editorial page was naturally the
most interesting to us and we beg
leave to express the opinion that in
all respect it would have done credit
to one of our great metropolitan
dailies The other work was also of a
high order an dshoWed marked liter

But the American people of all
parties, independent of whether the
Standard Oil Company contributed to
the Democratic fund or not. will re-
ioice if the administration shall make
a thorough investigation and begin
proceedings against this gigantic trust
If any Democratic managers, while
Judge Parker was voicing the righte-
Gus indignation of the Democratic
masses against the trust peril. were
secretly bartering and trading with the
Standard Oil trust let those managers
stand exposed and be universally con-
demned. But let the law be enforced
against this giant trust.
In the Northern Securities Com
pany case, which was a proceeding
against a trust that had not actually
commenced business, the Supreme
Court has made plain the way for the
enforcement of the law against trusts.
All that is needed is for the admins
tration to proceed with zeal and de-
termination. If it's regular force of
attorneys have not the time to prose-
priated 100000 to carry it on. The
money has not been used and can be
made available: and lawyers with the
necessary ability and civic courage
can be found who will conduct the
prosecutions.
Why not begin with the Standard
Oil Company? Its success has been
due to unlawful determinations and
its path is strewn with the failures OF
hundreds of competitors it has ruth
lessIy crushed. If it has invited attack
by contributing to the Democratic
campaign fund. as alleged, the country
will be glad if it's attempt to dictate
in politics has caused the administra-
ton to proceed AGAINST it. Whatever
the cause, we hope the report in the
New York Times is true and thai tae
antitrust law will be enforced against
this gigantic monopoly that has fat
tened upon illegal Determinations in
| it's favor.

rs 1T A GOOD TRUST"> OR A dad
TRUST?'

Two publications that seem to have
some connection have bobbed up every
week since the election.
The first is that the Standard Oil
Company, through VIM. F. Sheehan,
contributed large sums to, the Demo-
cratic campaign fund.
The second is that the Department
of Commerce would shortly begin to
the Standard Oil Company
with a view to enforcing the provisions
of the antitrust law against that
gigantic trust.
The first statement is fathered by
Mr.. Walter Scott. editor of the Tam
many Times, who vigorously assails
Mr. Sheehan for. as he alleges. de-
livering the Democratic party as far
as he could, to the Standard Oil Com
pany.
The latest publication TO the effect
that the Standard Oil Company is to
be investigated" is published in Sun
days New York Times, which says:
Reports which have for some time
been floating around to the effect tina:
the Standard Oil Trust was to be the
next on the Department of Commerce s
list of trusts to be investigated crys-
talized tonight in definite rumors that
the investigation was under way
If the Standard Oil Company did
contribute largely to the Democratic
campaign fund (Which is improbable)
and did not give ten times as much to
the Republican campaign fund (Which
is more improbable) then it may be
that the investigation" will proceed,
as published in the Times. But we will
await fuller information before fully
believing either statement.
If it shall turn out that the trust
is to be investigated with a view to
antitrust proceedings and the law
against trusts is to be enforced. then
there will be ground to believe both
statements and the world will know
it is a bad trust which did not
come down with the dust" for Cor
telYou's campaign chest. All good
trusts" contributed largely to the Cor
telyou fund and have no fear of any
proceedings under the Sherman anti
trust law.
