POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS.
Why Wayne County Did Not Have
Negro School Commit
teeman.
faemaT

The Democratic Party is the party
of the white mau. This is a truth
beyond contradiction. How any
Southern white man, after studying
the platforms of the two parties, car
vote the Republican ticket is g
strange thing to comprehend.
ia The ARGUS, as is well known, was
not in favor of MIR. w. r. Hearst fol
the candidate OF the Democratic
party for president, but it affords u>
pleasure to say that the consistent
and manly stand of MI. Hearst since
the close of the Convention has won
the confidence and respect of many
people who were opposed to him for
the nomination. Mr.. Hearst was a
candidate, as he had a right to be,
United States. He made a strong
fight for the nomination, went into
the Convention and was defeated for
the nomination. But after the Con-
vention, he Immediately t~elegraphed
his congratulations to Judge Parker,
assuring HIM of his hearty support,
and his four powerful papers pub
lished in New York, Chicago, San
Francisco, and Boston will enthusiast
tIcally support the Democratic ticket.
1t is easy to be great in victory, but
it takes a man to be great in defeat.
Only a few yers ago, nearly every
county in Eastern North Carolina
had negro school committeeman over
Committeeman in Wayne county,
however. Do you know the reason?
At that time, the Board of Educa-
ton was elected by the Clerk of the
Court, Register of Deeds and the
Board Of County Commissioners.
Wayne county was fortunate in hav-
ing Democratic Clerk of the Court,
"a Democratic Register of Deeds and
oneDemocrat on the Board ofCounty
Commissioners, lat that time theBOaru
being composed OF 3 members. thus
it was that a Democratic County
Board Of Education was elected by
only one vote, and that Board ofEd-
ucation appointed all of the school
committeeman in the county. Mind
you, this was only a few years ago
when Russell was Governor, and the
power IN North Carolina. It is Well
to remember these things. An cleo
ton Will be held in November, and
men must decide how thew will vote.

ONE KILLED.
Another Captured, While a Third
Makes His Escape.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 14.-One
burglar was killed, another surren-
dered and a third made his escape,
and an eleven year old boy was
wounded in the back late tonight,
as the result of an attempt of the
three men to rob the house of Harry
Miller, GA north Fifty-second street,
West Philadelphia. The dead man
is Frank Robinson, of New York,
and the captured burglar is Harry
Smith, of this city. Both are well
known to the police.
In the fusilade Raymond Nc
Corkle, the boy, who was in the
crowd, was shot in the back. His in
jury is not considered serious.

SOME PLAIN G
Men Who Have Paid High Prices
for Their Offices

l - rs 8s+-+ -
The Republican party in North
Carolina is absolutely in the hands
of a smaller number of men than a
person has fingers on both hands;
in fact, the number of fingers ON
one hand is about large enough
to include the men who dictate and
dominate Republican politics in this
State.
These men have paid a high price
for all they have gotten out of the
| Republican party, although they
have big offices with tat salaries.
Yes, any Southern white man pays
a high price for Republican rewards,
for IN espousing the cause OF Repub-
licanism, he turns his back on nearly
all Of the white people, his kindred
ami his friends, and absolutely spits
| upon and tralnpIes into the dust the
dearest sentiments and traditions
transmitted to him by his Anglo
Saxon ancestors, sentiments and ira
ditIons which he learned at his
mothers knee in the earliest days or
his childhood.
Moreover, while these Republican
white men do not acknowledge it,
they no doubt feel most keenly their
positions.
Consequently, as has always been
the a S IN all times, after selling out
principles for gain, these men have
become bitter enemies to the old
party, and their plan is to wreck and
rum, 10 matter what 1t may cost the
people Of the State.
lima to Russell, fusion and the ne
gro, IS proof positive of the above
fact.
When Marion Butler left the Dem
ocratlc party and joined The PopulIsJ
party, men who knew Butler told
the people that it vas only a trick
of Butler to lead them into the Re-
publican ranks, but many of them
had faith in Butler and followed
him blindly. Now they fully re-
alIze their mistake, and see that
they were deceived and rduped by
Butler, who after getting all there
was out of the Populist movement,
deliberately and in cold blood an
nouneed that he is now a Repubii-
can.
Further more, Butler no doubt
thinks that many of his old time
followers Will hold on to his coat
party Of Roosevelt and the other ne
gro lovers.
Some few, impregnated with pref
udice, will no doubt follow this man
Butler, who has done SO much to ins
jure North Carolina, but the good
men who we're deceived by him will
wash their hands of everything that
savors of Populism, and return to
the party of the white people. The
Sfodt naJOIlty Oh IOpulIotS nave
long ago realized their mistake, and
have already returned to the party
of their fathers. This year, nearly
all Of the men that were deceived
into the Populist party will vote the
Democratic ticket, for all Of our peo-
pie have learned from bitter exper-
fence that to the Democratic party
alone d they look for peace, pros
and good government in
North Carolina.

September Magazine Notes.

No politician could ask for a fairer,
and no reader could ask for a more
entertaining biographer than Joseph
M. Rogers, who both understands po-
litics and the art of political portrait
painting. Mr.. Rogers paints the po-
liticaI portrait of "Thomas Collier
Platt" in the September number of
The Booklovers Magazine in most
striking colors: not too black, nor
white, nor neutral, but natural-the
man as he is. That the article is ex-
ceedingly readable goes without say
ing. 1t is appropriately and amusing
ly illustrated with portraits and car
toons of the easy Boss
Paul Morton, the new Secretary of
the Navy, has always been a glltton
for work, says an article in Leslle's
Monthly Magazine for September.
Put pile of important papers on his
desk and his decisions come almost as
fast as shots from a rapid-ire gun.
He does not drink or smoke and his
head is always clear.
I'm our trips over the road" says
one of his subordinates, che eats less
In day than do at a single meal.
Work never worries him. He throws
it off too rapidly. Consequently he
never worries or gets tired out. He
hates details, but he has thoroughly
mastered them. He likes to handle
big things-matters of general policy.
He is abrupt and short in his manner.
For that reason 1, and lot of the men
who work under him, used to be afraid
of him. But that was before we real
lied how kindly he is at heart. He
doesn't make a great many intimate
friends, because when he does he feels
bound to stick by them to the bitter
end. l know one man whose only
claim on Paul Morton is that they
were railroad clerks together back in
the '70s. He has lost five or six posi-
tiOns which Morton got for him, but
Morton still keeps on finding him new
jobs and trying to brace him up. He
is taking to Washington as his private
secretary the same young man who
served his father in that capacity IN
| Cleveland's cabinet"

THOROUGHFARE NECK.
Tomato caunery at FIemiugs Landing Not

Keeping Very Busy-Peaches are Nov
log off In Considerable Quantiti es.
Special Correspondence to the TINES.
THoRoUGHFARE NECK, August 3d.
The Flemings Landing cannery is not
kept very busy as yet, as tomatoes
are ripening very slowly owing to cool
damp weather. Farmers have their
fallow ground plowed and if wheat
stays near the present prices large
acreage will be sown.
Those who have peaches are busy
and wear the smile of contentment
that goes with honest work that
brings the compensation that a peach
crop with good prices does.
There is scarcely farm in this COM
munity that hasn't the old family
burying ground, that are in many
cases long since forgotten and are
hidden away in some secluded spot
amid a thicket of bush and brier. The
only marks of their existence are
crude cobble stones placed at the
head and foot of each grave. Occa-
siOnally however, a marble slab tells
tales of the past and as all are very
ancient they are interesting to visit.
One of the largest and best known of
these is situated on the farm owned
by Mrs. Jennie E. Bell. The graves
here will number a hundred or more.
A stone wall 20x30 feet and about 4
feet high substantially built of granite
protects one family lot of twenty
graves, the oldess of which is one DIR.
A. L. johnson who died in 1918, Mar
mas and Margaret Naughty, who died
in 1881 and '82 respectively, are the
oldest graves marked outside of the
wall. Quaint inscriptions on each tablet
give important instances of their lives.
In the years gone by it is said that
church stood near here. 1t was last
used as burial place in the early six
ties.
