AN ACT OF CHARITY.

-
Mrs. Tom Walton uss in : very com
foriable ffane q hind and body.
Tom had come home for luncheon.
ahd he'd amiably started of with their
gaest, Grace Maynard, for the public
reception at the white house. Grace

this wa her last chance to see the
First Lady oi ihe Land. Is the news

that the season sss 80 nearly over, and
she could have Tom al 70 herselh she
looked lazily out Of the window and
saw her husband and Grace boarding a
car at the corner. -
There is scarcely anything more en-
tertaining TO q student OF democratic
government than an afternoon recep-
lion at the white house. Mr.. walton
and his charge had stood long and per
seyeringly "in line" first out IN the
street. then gradually pushed along
within the grounds, till at last they
found themselves standing in solemn
file, Grace in front, at the very thresh-
old Of the blue room. Just ahead were
two tiny but bold figures--a small,
dark-eyed Jewess and her smaller
brother"Miss Zimmerman and Mr..

the inquiring usher; Miss Cinnamon

stentorian tones, as they passed along
the magic circle within which stood the
receiving party. Aafi

old woman with a huge green veil tied
over her head and ears and tiny, faded
old black shawl gathered around her
shoulders.

"Move on, therel" came the rough
voice Of the policeman. And Grace and
Mr.. Walton found themselves taking
the woman's place; and then, all in d
breath, they were ont in the great room
beyond, amusing themselves by listen
jng to the broken English of a group Of
Coreans who stood in one corner, gay
in native costume, with their odd CAPS
on their heads.

rHOs. K. wATsON's LETTER.

Hon. Thos. E. Watson, vice-Presi-
Dental nominee of the Peoples Party,
wrote his letter of acceptance and
mailed it to National Chairman Butler.
The letter was delayed for some time.
When Chairman Butler received it, he
wrote to Mr.. Watson Offering some
suggestions. This correspondence
prevented the publication Of Mr.. Wat
sons letter. Since the campaign, how
ever, Mr.. Watson has published his let
ter in his paper. 1t makes about five
columns. We present Chairman But

attention, so that it may be we'll re-

letter is also crowded out of this issue,

BRYAN's MAJORITY 1926.
The State Omcisl Vote on the Presi
Dental Electoral Ticket.

The State Omcial Vote on tho Presi-
Dental Electoral Ticket.
The vote for Presidential electors
in this State has been officially COM
puted and shows Bryan's majority
to be 19, 266. The total vote cast for
all Presidential electors was 331 ,222.
There is no material difference in
the vote cast for the Democratic and
Populist electors on thu Bryan fu-
sion ticket. Usually, the electoral
ticket receives the largest number
Of votes cast in State, but in North
Carolina this time this rule may be
reversed. It is known that q num-
Der of voters who did not cast any
electoral ticket at all did vote the
State ticket; and if any considerable
number of voters did this, the total
vote for the State ticket may exceed
the vote for the electoral ticket.
Below is the official electoral vote.

WHY DID SENATOR PRITCHARD
CHANGE?

CuANGE7
The question has often been asked,
why did Pritchard go over to the
gold men, when he knew he could
be reelected if he stood squarely by
the people and for silver9 Some
have said that he did it to get into
McKinley's Cabinet, and others have
advanced various other reasons. We
think the explanation is that the
gold ring told him that they wanted
Y gold Senator from North Carolina.
and that he must make some kind of
an announcement that he had chang
ed his views so that he could vote
with them for the next six years.
Senator Pritchard no doubt protest
ed and told them that he could not
be elected unless he stood for free
silver. They no doubt then told him
that they did not want him elected
il he would vote for silver &c., and
that if he did not go over to their
side they would put up the money to
fight him and back some Other man.
One thing seems to be clear and
that is that Pritchard's change YVES
not a real conversion like thst of
Pau's. When a man is converted and
has strong, heartfelt convictions heis
enthusiastic and goes before the pub-
lie announcing his change and giy-
ing his reasons therefor as Paul did.
But Senator Pritchard seems to have
b,en ashamed of his conversion and
was afraid to try to explain his reas-
ons for changing. 1t is noticeable
that he made very few speeches dur
ing the last campaign, and that he
could not be gotten to speak where
he would likely have a large Popu-
list audience. He made only a few

was squarely for the free coinage Of
silver, but he was pledged on the
banking monopoly and for an in

SOME TALL NUMBERS AGAINST THE
DEMOCRATS,

Il II
DEMOCRATS,
There are sometimes ways of pre-
senting figures which will obscure
what they really mean if they are not
closely examined. You will never see
a Democratic paper acknowledge that
the head of the Democratic ticket was
beaten by majority of 1000, but
such is the stubborn fact.
Let's see. TO begin with there waa
a total of $4,000 votes cast in the
State for Presidential electors. OF
this number of votes Cyrus lB. Wat
son, the head of the Democratic ticket
received 10000 in round numbers
There were, therefore, POI 900 votes
cast which he did not receive
and the difference between the
10000 which he did receive and the
POI 600 which he did not receive is the
majority of votes by which the head

WE UsDERTOOk TOO MUCH.

Concerning the temporary trouble
the CAUCASIAN had last week, few |
suggestions may be IN order here.
There will be no effort TO o!ucidate
or elaborate IN detail, but there are
one or two facts which ought to be
stated and which ought to impress
our friends. In truth, what is here
presented MUST HAVE their consider
alton if they care to see the paper
properly supported and sustained.
All during the past two years, the
most general and CONSPICUOUS utter
ance and remark among the people
has been "hard times" Hundreds
upon hundreds of letters came 10
this Office asking for copies of the
CAUCASIAN, while tho writer's stated
that they would like to become reg
ular readers of the paper, but did
not feel able to pay for it. In Au
gust of 1895, we made proposition
to send the CAUCASIAN three months
for ten cents. 1t was anticipated
that two or three thousand people
would take advantage of this offer,
and we thought we could stand the
loss that would thus be involved.
But more than SEVENTEEN THOUS-
AND people took up that proposition.
Now, ten cents will just about pay
One-half of the expense of sending
out the CAUCASIAN for three months.
There was n loss of nearly ten cents
on each Of these subscribers, and
the proposition, instead of being
profitable, just eat into the fund of
the CAUCASIAN to the extent of about
$500.
We thought we had learned 8. les
son at this point, and resolved not to
be caught at such n bad bargain
again. But we forgot it
in the excitement of the
last campaign, and another PROPOSE
ton was made to send the paper
during the campaign for ten cents.
About six thousand people swooped
down on that proposition, and nearly
$4,000 more of the capital stock
went to meet the expense thus in
cured.
Gentlemen, fellow citizens and
brethren! We are done with these
kind of projects. II is time to stop
them when the result is q levy by
the sheriff. THE CAUCASIAN is the
central representative of about two
hundred thousand voters under the
COOPERATION PLAN. If there are
not enough men to support the pa
per in this vast army OF voters, then
the inevitable conclusion is that the
paper will not be wanted, and it will
have to stop.
The price hereafter will be ST.. 90
for one year; 60 cents for six months;
80 cents for three months. This
statement settles the future subscrip-
ton price for "off" years, ION"
years and all sorts of years.
We marked off this list on Novem-
Der 7th the names of six thousand
subscribers whose time had expired.
These names ought to be replaced
at once by regular semi-annual or
annual subscribers. Their support
and sympathy is needed now and
needed very much. If the sheriff is
allowed to swoop down on this office
again, the chances are that he will
swallow the entire outfit, snd that
there will be nothing left of it.. We
have done what we could. If you
will do HALF of what YOU can do, all
will be well.
