.'WIIAT Is \ DEMOCRAT?"

What is a Democratic is the.ques-
ton being propounded by the New
York World which in former years
was so good a Democratic paper it
didn't have to ask such questions.
Among the answers RECEIVED by the
World is this from Mr.. George H.
Locey, Of Southern Pines:
"A Democrat is one who believes
that a pertinent function of govern
ment is to secure as far as possible
diffusion of wealth among the masses,
as opposed to the Capitalization of
wealth among the classes AS at pres
ent and to foster conditions that would
produce such a result
If the World asks the question as
it applies to present day politics a
further answer might be "A mar who
believes in Jefferson's 2pr1nciples, tries
to carry them out by strengthening the
party OF jefferson, not by giving aid
and comfort to Hanilton's teachings
whether advocated by Roosevelt or
Palmer and Buckner, and who doesn't
think he has more sense than all the
Democrats in convention assembled"

'IF YOU DON'T, WE WILLo"

In the last Congress, urging the
Republicans to reduce the tariff for
the benefit of the Consumer, John
Sharp Williams declared with empha-
sis: eff you don't. we will 1t is be-
cause the people are endorsing the ut
erances of Williams that Mr.. Taft
declares for tariff revision But the
people want reduction" that will re-
duce the cost to them of what the
trusts produce. Revision" by Re
p~ublicans, at the best, would be Just
what the trusts would concede to pre-
vent the proper reduction by Demo-
Gratis.
But the mar who really expects
a Republican administration to make
any revision" to help the
is following an 'iridescent dream"
There will be no proper reduction of
the tariff by a party that believes
in levying taxes for private enrich
ment.

tkNITAS VEGETATION.

Nas.leVlch, that Count Rostopchin
VINO, as Governor-General of Moscow,
is credited with having halted the
march of Destiny by ordering the
burning of the city about the ears of
the Great NAPOLEON and his army. He
lived to meet with disfavor at the
hands of his Car and later retired to
Paris where he died a dilletante. His
life, as narrated by himself, is a model

NF~W BUILDING DEDICATED.

roon the completion of the build
igs of & great educational institution,
il is customary to a addresses and
then tor the buildings to be dedicated
to Science and Learning.
Some years ago, when the first of
the large and modern cotton mills in
Randolph county was completed, its
owners determined to ask the late
Rev r. Craven, President of Trinity
College. to deliver an address upon
its opening and to dedicate 1t, He dld
so, made a great address. and ms
dedication of that big industrial plant
was commented upon and widely APP
plauded. Labor is honorable and
God-directed why should not a cotton
mill be dedicated to the use of man
and the blessings OF Almighty God
be asked upon it, upon those employ
ed therein. and upon the industrial
life that is the practical basis upon
which our civilization is building?
On next Wednesday night. upon the
occasion of the formal opening of
the new building Of The News and OBJ
server. aftea addresses by the Cover
nor and cler editors Of the PAPER
the building will be formally dedi-
Gated to the service of the Common

vine guidance that The News and OBJ
server may be a helpful and powerful
agency for Good Government, for
Temperance. for Progress, for duca
ton, for moral ~uprightness and for
civil and religious liberty.

Sugar as q Clue.

few grains Of powdered sugar consti-
tuted the clue that led to the arrest OF Ar
thur Johnson, colored. by Sergt. Yates OF
the fourth precinct. Johnson was charged
with the larceny of dozen buns, when ar
raigned before Judge Mullowny in the Po-
lice Court yesterday. A fine of s. was linz
posed in default of payment of which john
son will spend fifteen days in Jail.
The buns were the property of Harry Tre-
ger, who has a store at II and G. streets
southwest. He rushed to the sergeant yes
terday afternoon and reported that a coll
ored man had taken dozen buns from his
store. Sergt. Yates obtained a description
of the man and started down the street
again. Pretty soon he saw a colored man
approaching. AS he drew nearer the SER
geant noticed that on his lips were sprink-
lings of powdered sugar.
That's my man." the sergeant remarked
and the prisoner was later identified by
Treger as the individual who took the buns.
