For many years the democratic
politicians have claimed that over.
production was the cause of the low
price of cotton and other products
in 1898, and that democratic control
Of cur national affairs had nothing
to do with starvation prices and low
wages. "Justice," in the last issue
Of the Union Republican, shows the
fsllacy Of such argument. He shows
that the cotton crop of 1893 was
only six million seven hundred
thousand bales in round numbers.
The crop for 1904 was In round
numbers thirteen and half million
bales, and the crop for 1905 is esti-
mated at eleven million bales.
The price paid for cotton in 1898
was four to six cents per po und,
while In 1894 and 1905 the average
price paid has been about IL cents.
Now, mind you, the crop for the
past two years were nearly twice the
crop Of 1908. and still the price paid
for cotton was more than twice the
amount paid in 1898. This shows
that bad laws enacted by the demo-
Gratis and the lack OF confidence in
the party caused all our troubles in
1898, from which 1t has taken US
several years to recover.

In Congress some days ago while
some OF the members were discuss
ing the tariff Mr.. Williams, the mi
hority leader, took occasion to state
that his party did not believe In free
trade, snd that the declaration In its
platform that "all forms OF protec-
ton are robbery" did not mean free
trade. In other words, the demo-
cratic platform does not mean what it
says-but the majority Of the voters
found that ont some time ago.

The Senate and the Canal.


1t is hoped that the sharp scrutiny
which the Senate is beginning to ex-
ercise over Panama Canal affairs will
promote, rather than retard the en-
terprise. The benefits of the canal
to American commerce are Of such
promise that it would be a pity If
criticism should be carried to the
length Of obstruction. The desire of
the American people for the con-
struetion Of the canal In tho best
way and in the shortest time. con-
sistent with good work, is unmis-
taxable. The interests Of the entire
country, including both ocean coasts,
the Mississippi Valley and the Gulf
States, are so concerned In the open.

road are not forgotten, and he need
not resent scrutiny which tends to
prevent their repetition in the con-
struetion Of the canal. Including
the money paid to the French COM
pany and to the Republic of Panama,
and that expended by our agents on
the isthmus, the canal has already
cost Us some $500, 900. 900, and we
are not yet ready to begin digging.
If there has been inefiiciency or uu-
necessary delay, the Senate may
bring out the fact and help to cor
rect the fault. If its scrutiny is ex-
ercised with an eye single to the cor
rection of these evils and preven-
ton of their occurrence, 1t will rem

Cleveland's Realistic Music.

lands western trips, In which he was
accompanied by Secretary Olney, he
arrived during severe storm at a
town In which he was to speak. AS
they entered their carriage and were
driven from the station the rain
changed to hail, and immense stones
ratified on the roof of the vehicle.
A brass band, rather demoralized by
the storm, stuck bravely to its post
and played.

Cleveland.

The following Is clipped from the
editorial columns Of the News and
Observer;
"If q man IL q thick-and thin
Roosevelt man he lie forgiven much.
The new postmaster at Chicago has
recently BEEN forced by Gov. Duneen
to make restitution to the State Of
Illinois Of nearly $4,000, Illegally
appropriated to his own use by him
when he was State Treasurer. If he
had been q wicked democrat he'd
have been kicked ont instanter, and
railroaded to the penitentiary where
he belongs"
The News and Observer is judg-
ing President Roosevelt by the way
the democratic machine does busi-
ness 10 North Carolina. Every one
who knows the President, or has
observed the course pursued by him
during the past three years, knows
that the above charge by the News
and Observer is not true. If the
postmaster Of Chicago misappropria.
ted funds, there L. no evidence that
the President knew 1t when he sent
bis name to the Senate. On the
other hand, the democratic machine
in this State has never missed an
opportunity to down . foe, whether
he belonged to an opposing wing Of
the democratic machine or was re-
publican and 1t has been the policy
OF the machine to elevate Its friends
regardless Of their sins against good
government. For instance, take the
case Of one Meredith at Newbern.
He drew q pistol and threatened to
kill the Master Mechanic of the A.
aud n. @. Railroad, but friends in.
terfered and saved the mechanics
life. Afterwards the Master Me.
ehsnic lost his job, presumably be-
cause he didn't get killed, and Meri-
deth was given q good position on
the road by the machine, and was
not even fined for carrying a con-
esaled weapon. That's some Of your
democratic good government of
which you boast. Take the case of
the two bank clerks at Fayetteville
who Incorporated over $4,000,
aud they were let OFF upon payment
of cost. They were democratic aris-
tOcrsey, If you please. While the
same week poor man was sent to
Jail for stealing hog. The Observer
certainly hasn't forgotten the white
washing given the Railroad Commits
sion in 1901 and the withdrawing
given the management Of the A. & |
n. O. road two years ago. At the
last city election the editor OF the
Observer voted for a man for msgis-
trate who, only . short time before,
had been indicted In the mayors
court for being drunk and disorderly.
And whyS Simply because he was
q machine democrat.

many other cases but it isn't worth

"The year 1905 was the best year
In the history Ct Kelley Institute
at Greensboro. The parent institu-
ton OF Kelley at Dwight. Illinois,
writing to the Greensboro Institute
says:
"We congratulate you on the De.
cember bueiness, and In fact upon
the excellent she wing which you
make for the year 1905. The re-
ports, while not all In, are sufficient
to show that the business done by
the Greensboro X eley Institute dur
ing the year 1905, exceeds that Of
any other outside of Dwight. We
feel confident that the business you
have done in Greensboro during the
past year is due TO intelligent and
judicious advertising, with careful
attention to the details Of the busi-
ness. We assure you 1t f. very sat-
isfactory to US. Hoping that your
prosperity will continue"
The advertising by the Kelley
Institute has not been In any sense
along old lines. but has been fresh In
matter, Judicious, and intslligently
directed. It has been done mainly
In newspapers, and The News and
Observer has been the chief medium
IL has used 10 make known the ex-
perience Of those who have been
blessed by Its treatment. That was
very natural, for The News and OBJ
server has forty per cent more sub

And it was only few years ago
that the News and Observer was the
medium that told Its readers how
good old Nick Williams whiskey
was. It was the wbiskey without .

for the Observer to say that as the
distiller was one Of the Democratic
Executive Committee. But the
point Ia, If the democratic manage
ment of the whiskey traffic In North
Carolina has decreased the use of al
eoholic drinks, as they claim it has,
why il it that Kelley Institute, ct
Greensboro, has done the largest
business of any year since its exist
