2. AS to the repeal or annulment
of the amendments to the constitu-
ton, adopted in 1900, regulating the
suffrage in this State, the Senator's
fears are equally groundless. The
day is past when a question can be
raised by any one, white or black,
Democrat or Republican, as to the
validity of those amendments. Dur
ing the eight years Immediately fol-
lowing their adoption, such ques-
lions might have been raised and &C
ton might have been taken by any
voter against whom discrimination
was made and such action might
have been brought in a court Of this
State. But that time is past as there
is no longer any discrimination by
those amendments in favor of the
white or against the negro race Each
now stands upon the same footing so
far as the right Of suffrage is con-
cerned, and, therefore, no provision
of the Federal constitution is violat-
ed and no right of the voters of eth
er race interfered with. No Repub-
lican of this State, even when the
qquestion might have been tested,
sought to annul those amendments
Much less would they seey to test
them now, when, since their adop-
ton, more than $4,000 white men of
the rank and file of the Democratic
party, no longer frightened by the
cry of negro domination, have left
the Democratic party and are now
rallying to our standard.
would not for a moment do Sen
ator Simmons or any of the other
distinguished Democratic speakers in
this campaign the injustice to believe
that they mean their assertions and
their pretended apprehensions as to
the payment of these bonds and the
repeal of these amendments, to be
taken seriously. Their fears are born
on the political hastings, in stress
of weather and are promulgated with
great swelling words, in a hopeless
effort to brighten the timid and
catch the weak and unwary, and
thus, if possible, save their party
from inevitable and just defeat

ing to their payment without author
ity from the people. The jurisdic-
ton of the Supreme Court Of North
Carolina to hear cases of this kind
as claims against the State is swept
away by this amendment This is
expressly held in Horne's case, 81
n. G. 1862, and in Baltzer's case, 1O4
n. c. 265; and such deprivation of
Jurisdiction, even after suit is
brought, is there held not to be in
hibited by the Federal constitution
as impairing the obligation of con-
tracts.
In the last named case, Judge Mer-
rimon, speaking for the court, said:
ct would be idle, futile and ridicu-
lous for this court to declare and ad-
judge the validity of a claim against
the State and recommend to the Gen
eral Assembly to provide for its pay
ment when the constitution express
ly forbids it to pay or provide for the
payment of such a claim
AS said by Chief Justice fancy, in
Bank VS.. Arkansas, 81 U. S. 532:
'>Those who deal in bonds and obli-
cations of sovereign State are
aware that they rely altogether on
the sense of justice and good faith
of the State; and the judiciary of the
State cannot interfere to enforce the
contract without the consent of the
State, and the courts of the United
States are expressly prohibited from
exercising such a jurisdiction
So long as these bonds remain in
| the hands of individuals, in the abb
sence of authority from the people
| to pay them, no suit can be maintain
ed for their collection, either be-
fore the courts of North Carolina or
before the Supreme Court of the
| United States. Should they be trans
ferred to or pass into the possession
| or ownership of a State, such State
| could not maintain an action for
their collection in any court of North
Carolina, but would have to bring
| its suit against this State before the
Supreme court of the United States
and there only. So that without au-
thority from the people, the General
Assembly Of North Carolina cannot
authorize the payment of these bonds
nor can the question OF their pay
ment come before any court OF this
State, whether Democratic or Repub-
lican The fact that they have been
outstanding for more than 40 years
during which time no Lawyer has
been found able to suggI a way
for their collection, is gubtedly
an acquiescence in the ID ectness OF
the proposition that their payment
can never be enforced without au-
thority from the people themselves,
as provided In the constitution. No
fear or apprehension as to their col
lection has ever been entertained,
not even excepting those distinguish
ed Democrats who pretend to be SO
dreadfully frightened at this ghost
of their own raising. They know,
as every one doeSthat the qquestion
of the payment of these bonds is a
question that is dead and gone for
ever. and can never be resurrected

(By Ex-Judge w. P. Bynum.)

(By Ex-Judge w. P. Bynum.)
The Democratic contention in this
campaign, definitely stated by Sena-
tor Simmons, is that Republican su-
premaCy in North Carolina may
bring upon the people two grave
evils, namely, the payment Of the re-
pudiated bonds issued by the State in
I86S-69-'70, and the repeal or an
luIment Of the suffrage amendments
adopted in 1900.
Just how these evils are to be
brought about or the means by which
they are to be inflicted is not defin-
iteIy stated, but it is intimated that
1t may be by some act of the general
assembly or some decision of the Su-
pfeme Court of the State, in case
nose branches of the government
should fall into the hands of the Re-
publlcans. Let us see whether the
senator's apprehensions are we'll
founded.
l. The General Assembly, as every
one knows, is expressly prohibited by
"ectlon 6, Article l, of the Consti-
tutIon OF the State, from assuming
Ut paying or authorizing the collec-
tlon OF any tax to be applied either
directly or indirectly to the payment
Vi the bonds referred to. In the alb
Sehce of authority from the people,
1t mas no more power to authorize
their payment than it has to author
ne or assume the payment of the
ueOts contracted by the State in sup
port Of the Confederacy. The pay
ment OF the one is absolutely forbid
uen, and1ikewise the other, unless
authorized by a majority of the quail
lied voters of the State at a regu-
lar election held for that purpose.
any act Of the General Assembly
looking to the payment of the bonds
Oefore the proposition to pay them
snall have first been submitted to,
ana ratified by the people, would be
unconstitutional and void and this
testrlction, as the Supreme Court has
s"io' is an absolute prohibition and
Senlal of power which the courts
<sa see on the face of the constitu-
uOa itself without looking else
where.
Nor In the absence of such ratifi-
s"llon by the people could any suit

AROUND THE WORLD Dr. Simpsons Story of His Visits to the Countries of the
 Old World
(Continued from last weeIs)

|
 We had pleasant trip from Shang- hai to Hong Kong, distance of $50 miles. Not ripple Weather was now warm and comfortable and we began to thaw out God knows, sometimes 1 wish were frozen again.
 Hong Kong has splendid harbor and one year, few years ago, had the record of the largest shipping of any port in the world. The masts are so thick, SO tall and so straight that it looks like a tamarack swamp. There are always a large number of British men-of- war there besides those of other nations. There are thousands of sam- pans or small Chinese boats. They are generally run by women; man lying about somewhere to get in when the work gets too heavy for the woman. The families are raised; are born, live, eat, sleep and die aboard the vessel The little tads begin trying to handle boathooks and oars when two years old. Men and women are all barefooted. The small boats are worked by one large stern sweep oar, and you some 1 times see three or four little ones, the largest not as large as cream pitcher, trying to handle sweep. often won dered if any of the youngsters ever fell out of the boat. When typhoon strikes the harbor there are sometimes thousands drowned and the dead bodies of men, women and children are seen floating in the harbor for days after. The town itself is really named Victoria and is on Hong Kong island, but everybody calls the town Hong Kong for some reason. It is built ca the side of hill and slopes back to a height of 1900 feet. We went up to the peak, as it is called, and were very much disappointed. A great many live up there and there is very large hotel. I am glad to say that it was empty, for it shows that the people who go to Hong Kong have fairly good sense. They wanted me to go up to the Peak hotel when l landed, but how would you like to have to go half way up Mount Jumbo every time you were hungry? The business quarter is very rich and there are splendid buildings, nearly all stone. Streets are good and the town looks prosperous. There are few hundred thousand Chinese in au other quarter and scattered among them are the dives. sailors saloons, etc. Some of the toughest looking white women 1 ever saw in my life are there. Many Chinese are rich and doing business. 1 found them better to deal with than the British merchants or tailors.
 It is 63O miles from Hong Kong to Manila. Trip was smooth as usual-in fact, we had no rough weather between Nagasaki and Calcutta. Saw the Southern Cross and 1t Is not half as pretty as tue Dipper. consider it a very poor imitation of cross. Saw many flying fishes. They leap and glide rather than fly, but 1 have seen them make more than quarter of mile in one leap. Every evening there was almost continuous blaze of light ming. A tropical thunder storm with rain is the quickest thing and the wet test thing 1 ever saw. It always strikes you when you are miles from house; you are sweltering with the heat and wondering how to get away from it when you suddenly hear series of ex- plosions like blasting or cannon shots.
Douglas Island news., 1910-06-29

It suddenly darkens up, there IS bright flash about every three seconos and the crack, crack, crack of the thun- der becomes almost one continuous sound. Then big drops of raln-drops which seem as large as green gage ana as hard as quartz-begin to strike you. They do not fall on you, they are shot at you as if they had come out of bean shooter As rule the whole thing does not last more than an hour, but that is long enough. When it is over you are not thinking about the heat.
 Manila has about a quarter of mil lion people. The bay is much larger than at first supposed. It is fifteen miles to Cavite. The city is situated at the mouth of the Pasig river and is divided into two parts-the American and the old Spaniard, or walled town. The city and country reminded me much of Mexico. The houses, with great thick walls and tiled roofs, with courtyards and gardens in the center when possible; the mud -thatched huts of the natives, the iron. barred windows, the gaudy, fashy dress of both men and women; the ever present cigarette, the banjo or guitar playing under the windows at night-the whole thing might have happened in Mexico. They have two wheeled carts which they call caramittas, and it always made hit with me to see a great, fat Filipino woman reared back in one of those smoking a fat cigar. Some of their cigars are as thick as pick handle.
 lwent out to the ieper asylum; saw one hundred and ten lepers. Attended the meeting of the Tropical Medical society. There were representatives from China, Japan, India, Ceylon, Aus tralia, Annam and Siam. Billy Stub bins was right about Beri beri, it is caused by rice and the fault lies in the way it is hulled.
 visited all the hospitals in Manila and they are very good. Visited two dance halls iu the evening and they also were very good. A dance hall is the same whether it is in Manila, Jeru- salem or ketchikan. There are some fine old churches here and old monu- ments-one to Magellan, the discoverer of the Philippines, who was afterwards killed on one of the islands.
 We went to Cavite, saw the naval sta tion and shipbuilding works. Cavite was an old walled town and in place the wall is peppered with bullet holes. This is where they used to shoot the Filipino prisoners before breakfast.
 We sailed over to Cavite Vego, where Aguinaldo lives. He was off on one of his sugar plantations, but his mother was there, lively active little woman who said she was over eighty years of age. They have a large, comfortable house and bamboo trees, cocoanut palms, maugoes aud bananas grow right up to the door. There is a church near by which was used by the Filli. pinos as a base until the American men, -of-war shelled it at distance of nine or ten miles. It is not much of church now It looks as if it had been hit hundreds of times The tower is carried away and everywhere are great holes in the walls.
