TuE REVOLT GROWING.

Seeds of strife and discord were
sown in the ranks of the Kentucky
Democracy when William GOebel
was nominated for governor recent
ly, and q few days since thousand
Democrats who condemned the brow
heating, bull-doging and corrupt
methods by which he secured the
nomi n alton, met in Louisville, and
in a series of resolutions which We
reproduce, vigorously denounced
the Goebel convention and the ma
chine that controlled it.
William Fl. Sweeney, who was the
Hardin candidate for permanent
chairman of the regular convention
was present and declared in speech,
which was enthusiastically received.
that former governor John Young
Brown would assent to enter the
race against Goebel and fight him to
the last ditch.
The resolutions adopted contain
the following:
"REsoLvED, That the Democrats
of the Fifth Congressional district
condemn and repudiate the proceed
iugs of the convention at M nsic Hall
on June 2lst. We agree with the
Democrats of Montgomery, Clarke
and Warren counties, that said con-
vention was diverted from its pur-
pose by the unscrupulos domination
of VIM. Goebel and by the arbitrary
and revolutionary conduct of perma
nent chairman Redwine.
RESOLVED, That in view of the
demand among the Democrats of
Kentucky for the holding of State
Convention and for the nomination
of q Democratic State ticket to be
voted for at the next November cleo
ton, we request the Democrats OF
all the counties to cooperate with
us in holding State Convention to
assemble Wednesday, August the
30sh, 1907
Delegates were appointed to at
tend the meeting called for August
I'd at Lexington, at which arrange
ments are to be made for State
Convention. A resolution was adop
ted urging the Governor to call an
extra session of the legislature al
once "for the purpose of repeating
the Goebel election law and thereby
preventing contemplated frauds and
probably blood-shed at the Novem.
Der election"
1t will be noticed that the resolu.
tons urge Republican Governor te
call an extra session Of the legisla.
ture for the purpose of repeating the
infamous election law Of that Stat.
in order to prevent the contem plated
frauds at the ballot box.
The machine in Kentucky is 81
deeply intrenched and SO firmly
holds the reins of power, that it viii
doubtless override the best elemen
of the Democracy of that State, bu
not, however, without vigorous pro
test and stern opposition from al
men WHO desire honesty and decen
cy in politics.
This same machine class in NORTH
Carolina will follow the example Of
their Kentucky brethren and count
the votes of the honest rank and filt
of their party whenever opposition
mauifests itself to their dictatior
and domination.
But a day of reckoning will, az
sure as fate, come to those who OBJ.
tain political power by fraud, intim.
idation and corruption.

,TRANGE AND PECULIAR wABBLING.
"The Corporation Com missioners
could have assessed the railroad
property in North Carolina sixty six
million dollars and the assessment
would not have been more than the
property of the companies is worth.
Instead Of making the assessment at
that figure, the Commission took in
TO confederation the claim that much
private property is put on the tax
lists at much less than it's value. and
listed the property of all the railroads
al something like forty-two million |
dollars. That IS under rather than |
over the true value. and if the rail
roads had been willing to obey the
laws of North Carolina they would
have paid the low assessment without
seeking 10 have the Federal court

State. News and Observer July
18th.
Ia the last issue of TIE CAUCASIAN
attention was called to an editorial
that appeared in the News and OBJ
server in February advocating an
Increased tax valuation Of railroad
property, and we also referred to the
fact that the News and Observer bad
surrendered its fight to increase this
valuation to sixty six millions.
| And when the Corporation Com
mission increased the total valuation
of railroad property of every kind
ONLY TEN MILLION dollars instead of
thirty millions, the News and Obser
yer in way that is peculiarly char
acteristic of that paper, spoke words
of high praise for the Commission
and said that they were carrying out
, the peoples wishes in brave and
g manly fashion.
II 1t will be observed from the Ian
guage of the above editorial that the
, |" Commissioners could have assessed
the railroad property in North Caro-
lima sixty-six million dollars and The
assessment would not have beer
worth more than the property o
