A resolution demanding a division OF
the school fund between the races on
the basis Of taxation was killed by an
overwhelming vote, the democracy OF
North Carolina thus placing itself on
record as favoring in every possible way
the education of the negro and offering
him equal facilities with the Caucasian.
Inc pldCIOEIl Opl ~
reference to the settling OF the race
problem by the passage of the con-
stitutional amendment, has this to
say of the South Dakota bond suit:
The Democratic party of 1904
approves the settlement made in
and will forever oppose any and
all attempts from any quarter to set
aside the settlement then made. 1t
will abide the mandates Of the
courts, but it will not consent to re-
open the settlement that was alike
creditable to the state and fair to
the holders of its securities"
1t then speaks of national policies
thus:
I'VE condemn the President for his
surrender to trust influences and for
his failure to enforce the law against
monopolies and monopolists. Coli.
gress appropriated 100000 to en-
ploy special counsel to enforce the
laws against rust in twelve
months he expended for such purpose
only one-twentieth of that sum. In
the midst of crime and havoc, COM
mitted by these wrong-doers, he will
not stop the violation Of statutes
enacted for the protection of the peo-
pie. nor punish the criminals who
plumber them. although his attenr
ton was called ITO the name In
which the perpetrators might be pun
iShed by a recent decision of the Su-
.preme court.
I'VE denounce the present iniqui-
.tous, unjust and trust creating pro-
|~tective tariff, imposed upon the peo-
pie by the Republican party and de-
mand it's immediate revision, to the
end that all unjust burdens shall be
removed, M especially those upon
the necessaries of life and those that
enable the trusts to eXtort from the
people unreasonable profits and to sell
their products to consumers at home
at greater prices than are charged
for the same goods to 4 foreign
consumer.
1--WE view with alarm the growing
tendency of the government under
Republican administration toward
despotic imperialism abroad. We de-
ncunce the policy of the Republican
party in building up a strong central
lied government at Washington, at
the expense of the sacred rights of
the sovereign states, that which in
it's policy and conduct mas reversed
