Mason For Corporation Commissioner

| To the Editor: Please permit me
| through your valuable paper to present
| to the members of the Democratic State
| convention the claims Of the Hon. T. w.
Mason as they appear to me and to a
| very large number of the Democracy of
| North Carolina. Mr.. Mason served four
| years in the Railroad Commission when
| it was in it's infancy and at time when
| it required great judgment, skill and
| tact TO make the Commission a sue
! cess. 1t proved a success, and he con-
| tributed his full share in making it such.
| 1t was during this time that the Will
| mington and Weldon Railroad Company
| was required to pay very large sum
| of back taxes, and the property of the
| Seaboard Air Line was put upon the tax
| list. / know he contributed as much to
these ends as any other man. He dis
charged the duties of his office with great
credit to himself and the State and sat
isfed all classes.
In 1896 the Democratic party in it's
hour of distress called upon him to help
carry it's flag. At a great personal sacri-
flee he obeyed it's call and made can
vass that would have reflected great
credit on any party and any State. In
view of all these things, and in view of
his great ability, his high character and
acknowledged fitness for the place, it is
incomprehensible that the General AS
senibly in 1898 did not restore him to the
place from which he was removed by the
fusion Legislature. In justice to our
selves we should repair the wrong thus
done. Besides, we will need his services
in the great fight that is before us. With
such men as the unconquerable Aycock
and the gifted Mason to champion our
cause, We can meet and overcome any
talent, foreign or domestic, that can be
sent against us. 1t is true, we can get
his services for the asking, but when
we send him forth, let him be cheered
and encouraged by the knowledge that he
is serving just and an appreciative
party.
1t has been suggested that the candi-
dacy of Mr.. Mason may enable the Cor
poration influence to defeat both him and
Col. Frank Mcneil and nominate man
of it's choice / see no danger of this
result If Col. Mcneil alone can cope
with this influence surely he and Mr..
Mason together can. If this danger shall
appear l will. with authority, withdraw
Mr. Masons name and ask his friends to
support Col. Frank Mcneil.
Let us put Mason on the Corporation
Commission as its chairman

Beers Not Expected to Make

LONDON, May 5. News Of the occu-
patton Of Brandfort was issued by the
war Office at 10 a. m.,i confirming a dis
patch previously received by the AS
sociated Press. It is generally con-
sidered the most inn portant communica-
tion received from the front since the
capture Of General Cronje and the re-
lief of Lady ysmith. The fact that the
position gives the key to one Of the main
roads leading to the Drakensberg passes,
which possibly may be the means Of CO.
operation with General Butler later on,
provides an advance base Of operations,
ETC., and at the same time menaces the
Beers now southeast of Bloemfontein,
lis obviously the reason for the impor-
tance attached by all hands in the in.
telligence. 81: s
The Boer army which was at Brand
fort, commanded by General Delary, is
presumably retiring on Winburg which
will probably be the next objective Of
the British. Brandfort, 25 miles nearer
the Transvaal capital, is now Lord Rob
erts' headquarters. What particularly
.Gratifies the British Public
IL the evidence that the army Of Lord
Roberts in the Free State has recovered
Its mobility and is again capable Of un-
dertaking the general advance so long
retarded; 1t is hardly expected the
Beers will make much Of stand south
Of Kroonstadt, and possibly not there if
Lord Roberts succeeds in capturing
Winburg, thus interposing between the
main federal army and the Boer forces
in the neighborho Of Thaba n N'Chu
and Houtnek, in which case the latter
would be forced to move far to the east
ward, in which direction their mobility
would probably enable them to reach
Bethlehem and Harrismith line Of
safety The only opposition which the
British encountered at Brandfort seems
to have come from the Irish American
command. The central British array is
now line with the extreme left at
Boshos, under Lord Methuen, and tho
extreme right at Eand dslaagte, under
General Butler, so that the movements
of these wings in cooperation with the
main army may shortly be expected.
