Raleigh. Y. g.. Sent. Q. 1898

Capt c. NJ Cooke:
Dear Sir-T have read Dr. Thompsop's
criticism of your administration as Sec
reary of State in his speech at Clinton.
As | was, during your whole term as
Secretary of State. your chief clerk. it
is fair to you that / should state what |
know of your conduct of the office.
! know that your books were care
fully and accurately kept and present
a true statement of every dollar which
was received in the office, what it was
received for and what disposition was
made of it. Every dollar which came in
was deposited in hank to the credit of
the Secretary of State. not cent t.
you privately, and at no time did YOU
or could You have diverted any part
of the money collected by you as Sec
retary of State to your personal use
even temporarily.
The great bulk of the collections of
the Secretary of State are in checks
and drafts. These were always on
dorsed to the cashiers Of the several
banks in which they were deposited
Not cent of the proceeds ever came
into your hands. There was not over
81 900 collected in currency during your
term. Further than this, it was the
rule that every Saturday you and
should go over the accounts together,
and while this rule may have been va
ried, whenever we did not examine the
accounts on Saturday we did so within
4 few days thereafter.
| have recently examined all the checks
given by you as Secretary of State
With one exception, they were filed out
by me, and on their faces specify for
what purpose they were drawn.
In regard to the charge that n num-
her of the articles of agreement Of cor
porations were not copied in the record
books, / have to say that while this is
true the balance for it should attach to
me, and not to yourself, as you turned
over to me not only the duties, but the
fees, of this part of your office. These
articles were left duly filed in the Sec
retary's office, and neither the State
nor any individual can have suffered
from the failure to copy them
In regard to the charge that the seal
tax on corporations was not paid | beg
leave to say that DIR. Thompson is in
error. Every cent of this tax was duly
paid to the Private Secretary of the
governor in accordance with law. The
Private Secretary kept list on which
tNtIN Stdt dlliAeu iO every uOtuH1tUI
for the Secretary of State was noted at
the time it was so affixed. This record
was verified by the signed initials Of
the Secretary or clerk 10y whom the
document was sent for sealing-and
every cent due on this account was paid
quarterly.
In this connection / beg leave to say,
that while the law requires some of the
settlements of the Secretary to he made
quarterly and some monthly, it had, as
Il matter of convenience to all the officers
become customary for all settle
ments to be made quarterly, and
in making your settlements quarterly
YOU only followed the customs estah-
lished certainly for many years
Very truly yous.

seems that he recently purchased II

ed to tap 1t. The spigOt used was In
good working order, but for some rea'
son unknown to the scientific man the
cider refused to flow. He tilted the bar
rel up, pOked wires through the open
spigOt to make sure 1t was all right,
and pOttered around for couple OF
hours without satisfactory results
Then he gave up the job In disgust. and
sent for the man from whom he had
bought the apple juice.
This Internal cider must be as thick
