'- They were, equally frank and magnanimons in recognizing that the (lemocret' party in the past has not been without its value in political affairs. Nevertheless they. have candidly and squarely drawn the line of issue. They nnd'the other parties are mainly based upon the legaliiiug of the liquor traffic. The republicans accuse the demo- crate of being in favor of "free 'wbisky.” If this be a ‘fact. not 11' few of Ythe firo‘hibitiouists' would prefer ., free whisky to licensed whiskey; that is to any; they air:- cerely believe‘that legalizing the traffic by license laws is actually a protection, and therefore are op- [med to it. In this they may or may not be 'ght, but surely no good citi wishing the Wel- fare of the country. and thewhole country would object to a free, open,candid dimsussion'. ' The NEWS-Larrnn will do all in its power to foster such aspirit. It is high time that nan-0w, prej. udicad, bitter partinnshiy from the intelligent classes, of this had should be lsiduide.

It as a matter of“ great satisfaction to us that at the- meeting at Libertyvjlle on the 4th 'tnst. and also at the 'rattficationg meeting at Lake Blufi on the 8th; there was no diapositiou manifest-'3 ed to malign or in any way hitters"? 1y attack either the republicnhs or“ democrats. ‘ V As a mstter of fact 1t is perfect-V 1y clear that the mass of the peo- ple are very much» split up and at sea concerning the positions of all: parties. And as regards the issues; outside of prohibition, the prohib- itionists (themselves are not agreed. Many of them believe theattitnde of the republican party in the Phillipines is correct; many of them believe it is radically wrong. Many of the republicans will not this fall sustain the party because of imperialism. Many of the re- pnblicans believe the president and his party are right. The time his clearly come when 11“ good honest citizens who sincerely de- sire the welfare of the c'onntry, who are able to rise above party- ism, should 'meet these isssues with- out prejudice, withont blind psrty spirit and discuss them as Monies intellige 1t and honest citizens.

' The nemfloiiatitntion‘ adopted ia'North Ca’alina byitho popular vote, provides fior the réstriction of mirage to male citizens mm are able to +d and arite the English language as tested by the Constitution of the State; and also give evidence that they have paid their taxes during the past’ year; except that by a special proviso all the male citizens and Thai: lineal descendants in the male lme, vho were legal voters in any state of theUnion in 1867, though unable to meet the educational qualifications stated, are perpetual voters, if their taxes are paid, and provided they register as such within theyState prior to the year 1908. This amendment is sub- stantially the same as that already adhpted'in South Carolina, Miss- issippi and LOui'aiana,‘ and. its efieqt is todisfranchise the great bulk of the negro vote within the state. There was a time when such action would result almost in civil war, so'indignn'n‘t would be the whole of the Nurth: but. that'time has gone by. Whether the tau-called “grandfather" clause will stand the test of the Supreme court decision is a matter of doubt. When the finite provision was adopted in Lonisann, the twa United States Senators from that State both gnvé their opinion that it 'was unconstitutional. It has not, however as yet b.~en passed upon by the Supreme Cmrt. Whether or not this practical set- ting aside of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution is justifiableâ€"3 question by no manna so easy to answer as many in the North beliew, and on. which there is very much to be Mid-lot the aflrmstivee'rths im- mediate result ’hf such wion will RAVINIA. be beneficial.

Hence, from a parti- san standpoint, it moat bio-laid that republicans have ‘everything to‘gain and nothing to lose by this meaanw. Indeed, if the negro question could be settled on a baaia that would be goiter-ally recognized as honorable and fair, and in such wine that the fe'arl of negro domination would forever be removed from the eonthern states. the Solid South would be forever broken up, and the repub- lican party would be largely the gainer. The national republican platform does not' deal with the negro question in l statesmanlike manner; while on the other hand it is impossible to believe in the hit? of those tho hlh about the owe-city for the “con. sent of the govqned" M and yet trample upon that consent at home. ._ 'The was-Lmnis non-parti- san, non-sectarian and non-ration. ul.
