Wednesday, September 7, 1898. WHITHER ARE WE DRIFTING? The new=Daners are trvin2 to make some fan over the views of Prof. Norton, of Harvard. TDey seem to think that hi? retired life puts him out of ioach with the people, and all of the criticisms of his speech that we have eeen are based upon the presumption that a college professor is necessarily impracticable. We confess that Prof. Norton's words make us doubtful <*s to the wisdom of the course vrljich this Government is ahnnt to onrsue. Ilis view is best expressed in his own language: "Oar hearts," he said, "have been heavy with new weight of care, and the very brightness of sunshine has but deepened by contrast with the cloud of our sorrowful thoughts? sorrowful that our nation bhould have turned its back apon its old ideals, and standing r. at the parting of the ways, should have chosen that ancient path, familiar a- J wrattn Kt K1aa/K* foot 9 lO liit: ViU YYUliU, >V yjL 11 IV y uivvsu.r .wv of hapless generations, and which has never led to anything but ill?the path of aggressive war, of foreign conquest, of alien territorial aggrandizement, the path that leads from trouble to trouble." A long sentence, this is, but whatever may be said of it/ it is calculated wh?n critically analyzed to make one thlnkj beiausc the thought involved is fu'l of thoHght. Prof. Norton continues: "The black - * ? aad brutal visage 01 war nas, mueeu, been lighted up from time to time during tie summer by gallant deeds of oar men in service, and by the good conduct and marvelous good f*rtuBe of our navy, a*d by the general temper of humanity displayed when the actual fight was over by officers and men. But it has ;takeu on a deeper shade of gloom from needless sufferings which our brave soly diers have had to endure from the lack of due provision for their needs alike in camn, on ^eld and in hospital. It has been a miserable spectacle of incompetency, for which account must be rendered and penalty exacted." Prof. Norton thinks that we have nominal peace, yet in less than one hundred days we have revolution, a revolution of change iu our ideals and policy. We are not disposed to make lun of bi3 views. In truth, we have been very much parted to form correct ideas as to what [disposition should be made of - these new and strange possessions, 'X populated as they are by a ppople so 4 Vvnn ri>V?f onr? ILRU-LLCi CUI; ill lliuuguw; jm<K) uuu | language. Under our', constitution, the guiding chart, what shall we do with them? We are not inclined to laugh at Prof. Norton. His utterance makes us stop and think, and wonder where it will end. We have been convinced that a Bepnblic is safe and strong when its citizens are homogenoas. Cubans, Phillipmos and Porto Ricans are as unlike us as the Chinese. It is often said* that the South is too conservative, that it does not fall into the progressive thought of the age. Now may be the time to assert and impress upon the nation the South's conservatism, and its conservatism may save tne Kepubiic irom a great error. WHY NOT SENT) THEM HOME? The whole country is aroused over the condition of the military camps, and if agitation will do any good the soldiers will not have to endure the hardships much loDger. At first, we were inclined to doubt the accuracy of the reports telling of the distressing condition of these camps, but tbe death rate shows that there ha3 been gross neglect somewhere. Most of the people pal the responsibility for the terrible state of affairs on Secretary of "War Alger. Others are of the opinion that Presidert MeKinley himself as the bead of the nation should be held accountable for the mismanagement of his subordinates, and there is considerable force io t'jis view. One thiDg that has made thi? deplorable condition possible is mar mere iias oeuu euvireiy ix>v mutu j poitics in making appointments in the military service, and incompetency has been the result! It is a striking fact that the health condiiious at Jacksonville have been good, and it shows that proper camps ean be established in the South, especially vvnen a competent man like General Les is placed in charge of it. President McKin'^y has the power to i?sue an order .0 \ave an investigation made, and he should do it at _3-. once. If the Government can not properly care for its soldiers in ticce of peace, the President should send them to their homes where their families can nurse and provide for them. Tae President may have some good rea?oas for keeping^ a large army in camp, but it is certainly not . apparent on the surface. Why not /I Avwv UavmaO SCUU luCUl tvaic. . ^S.

It W03 generally expeciea that a second primary would bs < quired to 1 nominate a candidate for Governor, c Governor Ellerbe leads, Feaiherstone i comes second and Tillman third. The 1 second race wiil be between Elierbe 1 and Featherstone. ' In our opinion, the great majority 1 of the votes cast agaiDst Elierbe are the votes of those opp^-ed to the i dispensary. We believe ::hat most of ; Tillman's vote and Shnmpcrt's wfil i go to the prohibition candidate, and it would not surprise ns if Watson's vote should be found in t tie Featherstone column. Epton, at the time this is written, appears to have been nominated for Comptroller General. Bellinger beats Mower for Attorney General. Cooper and Tompkins will havo to go in the second primary for Secretary of State. Mcilahau and Brown will run over for Superintendent ot Education. Floyd and Blythe will have to try it again. The total vote in the State seems to be about 25,000 short of the fuil voting strength. The Spanish war kas { been absorbing the ioterest of the people, and they have been indifferent to politics. On the face of the returns, it seeins ciear that had a straight fight been made against the dispensary, it would have been a successful fisht. War Presidents generally stand a good chance for re-election, but the death rate in the camps in3v cause President McKiulcy's political death in 1900. He can not treat th? general demand lor an investigation to fix the responsibility wun lnamereiicu without a rebuke at the ballot bt>x. To all outward appearances, he is doing nothing to find oat who is to blame, and the country will consequently hold him responsible. Addixc to our territory will mean mean more money oat of the pockets of the people. It is stated that $125,000,000 will be spent on the British navy this year. This moans $3.30 for ! every $100 of commerce ot' the* whole empire. Russia pays $5.GO per $100 ' * J 7^ as insurance lor ner navv, aim jci?uw= There figures should make as think before leaping into conquests. SMASH THE DISrEXSAU.1". The first primary is over but the contest is not deeided. The ouly candidates representing a principle are to battle, again for victory, Feadierstone and Ford. Ths very flattering vote jdven the prohibition candidate, while not coming up. to tbe estimate, shows a large percent of the voters favoi the principle represented by him. Now is the time Jfor the frieuds of goodfgovernment and prohibition to work. It almost amounts to a fight between morality and immorality. Ths;election of one means liquor with all its attending evils?free samples, gambling, drunkenness, etc,, the other means progress, a purifying of the State aud our b? nes. The issue is one which caunot be shelved?it will not down but will rise, afier each seeming defeat, with renewed strength. The question affects not only legislation but reaches the very firesides of homes. It is I simply shall the State put liquor be! fore our people that ihey may drink j and be drunkards TLere is no necessity to argue the i evils they are patent to *!I?liquor | advocates admit it but fall back on the i A.*? TKo loTT^ Ul pciOU*ai iiutui . ^ uu 1U119 provide a punishment fur theft, assault, in fact every fbrm of crimerestrains a man from the liberty of : committing crimes against bis fehow; man and himself yet stands silent when he with the use of hquor destroys himself and his innocent wife |and children.

Think what that means?try and think of such a girl or man and ask yourself if you are willing to invite with your vote tuch a state of affairs into your family. Think of all this whetiyou rote We advocate the election of Featherstone because be advocates the principles of prohibition. He is a man of clean record ? and irreproachable character and eminently qualified to be Governor of the State. There is nothing that can be brought against his moral character. Even if it shall be impossible to enact a prohibition measure ue wi.i oe the best friend the dispensary ever had in tbe Governor's office; because be will enforce the dispensary law. Not as it is enforced now, but as it was intended to be. It will not be a vast political machine as it is now ? almost ruliDg the politics of the State with its free samples and brsaJcaje, but will be carried oat to lessen tbe consumption of liquor and educate tbe people to prohibitory laws. Do you doubt that the dispensary is a political machine? Did you ever hear of a dispensary constable? Tbe State pays tbem $2 per day.' Do you know how in the past tney nave earnea iaeir pay a?ym election time? ?Vbo did most of the work tor E^ans two years ago? Wasrrt it constables and dispensers in the pay of the State? You never heard of such a thing even under the old barrooms. Now h the time to assert your manhood. It is none of our business to inquire does it prohibit? Our duty is to do what we knouc is right acd leave the rest to God. Let us rid our State of the odium of selling liquor as a < beverage.
