Washington, September l.
The celebration. of Labor Day
this year possesses more tnan
ordinary significance to the RANKS
,of organized toilers, as it is just
twenty years ago since the oo,
seryancewas begun. The United
states is the only country in the
world which has set aside . 'esal
holiday deyoted TO celebrations
by the wage earners.
The origin Of Labor day 's
found in an agitation begun IN
the city of New York in 1857
Five years later the. far western
state of Oregon passed a law
setting aside the first Saturday ,,'
in June for this observance. This
law was passed February ~
|1ss7. Six years later, to q day.
this law was amended, and the
present date, the first Monday
in September, was selected.
New Jersey was the second state
to legalize this holiday an ac'
being passed by the Legislature t.
|of that state April 8, 1887. New

Democrats by the score declare that i
Mess Currie aud Mcdonald are nominal
ed, that they will not vote for them. Doe
Daniel A. and John L. know this ? Why
certainly. And don't they need votes il
nominated? Yes; but run Sheriff Jones
| for the legislature, and deal with him fol
votes enough to replace the rebellous ele-
ment you know Mr.. Pritchard wants Mr.
Jones to go to the legislature from this
county anyhow this time in order to vote
for him for United States Senator-and
then Mr.. Pritchard has money enough to
spare in this business to make campaign
expenses light on all three of the boys.
There is only ore rational argument in
favor of John j., Curries nomination for
sherlf-that is that there is not another
man in the county fit for the place. If he
wants it for revenue he has had his share
OF that sort Of revenue. If he wants if for
honor. he has worn out that small honor,
and ought to leok higher.
Sixteen years ago Mr.. Mcdonald thought
that the man who desired to perpetuate
himself in office over the ma orty wishes
Of bis party votaries, deserved theunuual-
flied condemnation of his party, but after
sixteen yenrs at the pie counter he has de-
cided to adopt the policy of staying there
at all hazards, and let the party 90 to the
four ends of the earth, but in the mean
time the Democratic voters Of the county
have decided that if nothing else will do
that they areequal to the task of chang
ing his mind.

The Republicans will leave nothing I'M
done that they can do to secure at the
hands of our convention the nominations
of Messrs. Currie and Mcdonald and any
body who has the interests Of the Republi-
car party in the county at heart, can bat
their good judgment.

Did not D. A. promise in the coun-
ty convention four years ago that he
would never be a candidate again for
the Clerks office, and in the cam
paign that followed was not that his
promise from day to day? Is he a
candidate now? If SO between now
and next Tuesday he has an opportu-
nity to establish his reputation for
truth and veracity that will never
come again.
Big John Ritter and his Republican
allies are very anxious for D. A. and
John L. to be the Democratic nomi-
nees, The Democrats are therefore
expected to meet on the 2oth IN con-
vention and ratify Big Johns choice
with whoop and hurrah.
Mr.. Geo. Washington Mcneil should
have prefixed his communication to
the FREE PRESS with statement as
to how he voted two years ago, and
everybody then could have had a
clearer understanding of his article.
Did he not vote the Republican ticket
straight through with the exception
of Arthur Mcintosh for Register of
Deeds and Cyrus Mcneil for County
Commissioner? And was he not the
mouthpiece of the Republicans in their
attack on the Democratic Board of
County Commissioners in 1898?
Mr.. Black when last a candidate
for the State Senate never made the !
statement on the stump that in the
event Of his election he would vote
against any proposition to abridge
the then existing right Of suffrage in
this State.
Show us the list of prominent Dem
ocrats who advised Mr.. Currie to this
course, and we will show you just as
many gentlemen who wouldn't feel
i'll at ease in the Republican party.
The truth of the business is that for
the past few years here Mr.. Currie
and Mr. Mcdonald have done every
thing that they have been able to do,
to obliterate our party lines, to disin
tegrate our party, in order to build
personal strength for themselves.
They didn't foresee the Amendment
Act then, and were it not for the
Amendment Act now, you would hear
from them and their friends the cry:
Nominate Mr.. Currie and Mr.. Nc
Donald, for they are the only Demo-
Gratis who have personal strength
enough with the enemy to secure an
election.
When you can't elect Democrat to
office by Democratic voters, so far as
the welfare Of the party is concerned.
he had best fail in election.
When Mr.. Mcdonald went out as
commander-in chief to fight for the
ratification of the Amendment Act in
Moore county, he met the enemy and
kissed them on the cheek, and they
turned the other, and he kissed them
again. What gentle herol
Mr.. Mcdonald lost the fight for the
ratification of the Amendment Act
because he loved those whom he

and that he loved in its power as h
loved his own right arm.
With Mr.. Currie and Mr.. Mcdonald
on the ticket, the race after the con
vention is a regular hurdle race, every
body for himself and the devil for the
hindmost man. If you can't noni
nate set of gentlemen whose self.
esteem and party loyalty is not suf-
ficient to win for the nominees of the
convention practically the same vote,
we had best dispense with the con-
vention.
A hart pursued by hunters conceal
ed himself among the branches of a
vine. The hunters passed by without
discovering him, and when he thought
that all was safe, he began browsing
upon the leaves that concealed him.
But one of the hunters, attracted by
the. rustling, turned around, and
guessing that their prey was there,
shot in the bush and killed him. Nor
al AS he was dying he groaned out
these words, II suffer justly from my
ingratitude who could not forbear
injuring the vine that had protected
him in time of danger?"
If Daniel A. and John L. will study
well Esop's Fables they can learn
much that should inspire them to
higher ideas of life, and a more COM
mendable attitude toward their fellows
who III the past have been pleased to
serve them we'll
Sixteen years ago Mr.. A. H. Nc
Neill as Daniel A. S competitor claim
ed that he had been urged to his
course, and placed in the race any,
how by his friends. D. A. aptly an
swered him then by saying that no
man could be put out by his friends if
his own desire didn't underlie it all.
But when D. A. is upbraided now by
those whose loyalty to the democratic
party is greater than their loyalty to
D. A. S pocket book, he simply says
hat he is helpless for he has been put
out by his friends.
Before our county convention there
