Mr.. simmons had not at that time

| would have let railroad comm sion
and everything else alone and would

election Law and the Infamous elec-
ton machines, was wiped, every
vestage of it. from the statute books
of North Carolina.
There is not word in the elec ton
law that we have that says that a
man shall steal There is not word
III II that tells the registrar that he
shall help Democrats to register but
shall use his position to try to keep
every other man from registering
right. There is not word IL that
election law that says that the cOun-
ty commissioners shall appoint igno-
rant and incompetent men to act as
judges Of election for the opposing
party. There is not Il word in that
election law that says they shall ap
point men who can't read and write.
There is not a word in that election
law which says that the poll holders
shall stuff ballot boxes. There is
not a word in that election laH that
says they shall make out and swear
to false returns. There is not word
in that election law that says they
shall build "bull- pens and shut out
Gods sunlight and hold the election
in dark corners by lamp light. There
is not word in that election law
that says that the county canvas5ing
board shall throw out enough pre-
cincts to give the Democrats ma
jority.
No gentlemen, the election law
does not require any of these thing
to be done; and no honest mar
thought these things could be done
under the present election law until
Mr.. Simmons took hold of the cleo
ton machine and put his cunning
and ingenuity to work to defraud
the voters of North Carolina. The
law reads fair, it does not command
amy body to do anything that Is un-
fair. The trouble with this law is
not what it says, but what it does
not say. 1t leaves loop holes and
gaps so that dishonest men may use
i to defraud the electors of the
State, and can't be punished.

WHY WE Co-oPERATED.

MIR. Simmons seems to be very IaQch
afraid that the Peoples party will sacra-
tice its principles by cooperating with that
terribly wicked and corrupt Republican
party" When Mr.. Simmons gets into a
section where the Republicans are strong
he changes his tune. He tells the Republi-
cans that he is surprised at them TO be
fusing with these hayseeders and crauks .
He tells them that they belong to "one of
the grand oil parties Of this country and
that they ought to be above having anything
TO % W:th this dangerous Third party
Now what a pretty set Of fools We all
would De if we were TO stop thinking for
ourselves and take Mr. Simmons ADVICE.
OF course he would advise each side to do
the very thing that would make it possible
for the Democratic machine to continue to
cheat and stay in power and draw the sal
