Rural Free Delivery q Boon to the Farm
<rs. Democrats Have stopped Thinking
Of the Masses

Editor Of The Caucasion:
Rural free delivery has come TO US
at last. and what a boon TO farmers.
Very few Of our farmers. and no doubt
IL will apply 10 other classes as well,
who are not well informed, know that
our Marion Butler was the first to eff
fectively agitate IL In the Senate of the
United States when he was the peo-
pies public servant there. He stood
single handed and alone, and fought
most bravely for that good measure in
opposition TO almost every other man
in the Senate, and now, all are con-
WINGED that it Is just what the good
Senator claimed for it. believe it was
through the faithful working of Sena-
tor Marion Butler that this grand
blessing was achieved.
There are some today, who are not
worthy to stoop and lick the shoe
lachets Of Senator Marion Butler, try
ing to claim this honor. What pity
that such men as Senator Butler does
not fill our legislative halls today, in
State and nation. | venture the pre-
diction, there'll come a time, when
worthy men and statesmen will re-
ceive honor before they die, and the
percentage of ignorance of our people
will be greatly reduced. 1t is to be
hoped that the day is not far distant,
when such will come to pass. Our
Democratic friends claim, they are
working to that end. Well, it's nothing
for them to claim for they claim ev-
erything that is good and deny all the
bad Judging then by their fruits, we
have great reason to believe they will
give honor to no one, dead or alive,
but a Democrat, and promote little
else than the interests of their holy
party, and an increase of the offices
and salaries thereof. We see many
crimes are being committed right I'M

the people, traitors go scot free. What
do they think the masses think OF
such doings, when they have made
to them such promises of reform, upon
the condition they would put them in
power. Well, l suppose since they
have stopped thinking of the masses
altogether, and are two greatly alb
sorbed just now in throwing up breast
works to prevent being thrust out
of office, into which they got, by hook
or by crook They give the people
praise only for being stupid enough to
be duped by them that's all. When will
our folks get wisdom enough to see
these plain, bare faced and bold swim
dies of their rights.
Yours for truth,
THOS. MEADS.

A Voice From Sampson County.

(The Union Republican,
Mr. Editor: In view of the fact that
the present Legislature has had good
deal to say about the juries in Samp-
son county being partisan, etc., and be-
cause of the fact that at the last term
of our court Judge R. B. PEBBLES, sent
one of the jurors, Edward Herring,
to Jail for 80 days for spending the
night at the home of one of the par
ties whose case was then on trial and
because we have heard of parties out
side of Sampson county rejoicing over
the fact and viewing it from a partisan
standpoint, l deem it proper that the
people of the State should know that
this juror Edward Herring is a Dem
ocrat of the most partisan stripe, that
he was the Democratic registrar for
Honeycutt township in the last cleo
ton; and that all the parties connect
ed with the case that was then on trial
| were of the most bitter Democrats in
the whole county. A READER.

A few days before the Legislature
adjourned the Shelby Aurora contain
ed the following editorial:
rs 1t possible that the Legislature
Is going to adjourn without impeach-
ing some state officials for borrowing
that 100000 last summer without au-
thority? Perhaps this is an oversight
due to the absence of Locke Craig. y
The Legislature did adjourn without
impeaching any state official for Dor
rowing the 100000 without permits
sion from the legislature. Mr.. Craige
thought the part he took in the i'm
parchment trial would put him in the
United States Senate-but it didn't,
and there was no reward offered for
the impeachment this time.

On last Friday Senator PrItchard was

On last Friday Senator Pritchard was
appointed Associate Justice Of the ;
preme Court Of the District Of Coluu
bia. The appointment Is for life wit
a salary Of $4,000 per year. Senate
Pritchard is lawyer Of recognized
ability and Is worthy Of the honor be
slowed upon him. The Washington
Post commenting editoriaily on the
appointment Of Senator Pritchard
to the judgeship, pays him the follow
ing just tribute:
I'VE think that Washington will cor
dialy approve the Presidents appoint
ment OF ex-senator J. G. Pritchard
OF North Carolina to- the supreme
bench Of the district. This gentleman
Is eminently qualified for the duties OF
the position. He is still young-not
yet fifty: he Is strong, self-contained
courageous, robust Of mind and body,
profoundly versed in public affairs,
and lawyer Of high and broad attain
ment He Is well known in the com
munity, having served six years in the
Senate, and he possesses the respect
and confidence OF all with whom he
has come in contact. We do not be.
lieye the President could have made :
selection more satisfactory from ev
ery point of view. Mr.. Pritchard il
no courtier, no crawling time server
He is a big, strong, man with ideas all
his own and the courage of their dec
laration."
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1903-04-02

Pritchard to the District Bench
were originally forecasted in The
Post several weeks ago.
The selection of Judge Pritchard,
who recently terminated a service
of about nine years in the Senate
from North Carolina, will be pop
ular in Washington. His friends
have regarded him as the most ELI
gible man for an appointment to
the United States Circuit bench for
the circuit comprising North Caro-
lima and several adjacent States on
the retirement of Justice Charles II.
Simonton, who is very old man,
but who desires to remain on the
bench, although now qualified to
retire. However Judge Pritchard
is we'll pleased at the pr ,spects of
service on the District Bench. The
proposed promotion Of Justice Cla-
baugh to the chief JUS iceship was
d scussed between the President and
Judge Pritchard some days ago.
The arrangement was entirely salts
factory to the latter.
RETIREs FROM TARHEEL POLITICS.
It is Judge Pritchard's intention
to leave Washington within few
days for North Carolina, where he
will wind up his law business at
Asheville, resign his place as a
member Of the Republican National
Committee from North Carolina,
and prepare to enter upon his duties
as jurist.
In his own State, as here in the
District, Judge Pritchard ranks
high as lawyer. Unlike most men
who serve in one or the other branch
of Congress, he has kept up his law
practice, and every year during
sessions of Congress has at times re-
turned to North Carolina to prose-
cute cases before the local courts.
His practice has been of a wide
character, including both criminal
and civil cases, and he is well
grounded in legal principles and the
application thereof. His first as.
signment in the local court will
probably be as judge of one or the
criminal courts, that being the usual
first assignment for new judge.
President Roosevelt has long en-.
tertained high regard for Judge
Pritchard, and was in sympathy
with his efforts in North Carolina.
In the Senate the new judge had a
very creditable career and gained
the esteem of both parties. He
served many years as member OF
the District of Columbia Committee
is thoroughly familiar with local
affairs and local interests, and has
had hand in shaping nearly all the
local legislation of Importance dur.
ing the past six years. He managed
in the Senate the passage of the
new code, whose provisions he will
now be called upon to enforce and
interpret as a judge.

To Hold More Conference.-The Session
Last Saturday.
Athletic representatives Of Harvard
and Yale met in conference at the Har-
ward union last Saturday and discussed
at length the question of eligibility
rules, the meeting lasting from 10 a.
m. Saturday until late in the afternoon.
At its conclusion Professor Hollis would
not make formal statement as he said
nothing definite had been decided upon.
1t was said, however, that the best Of
feeling characterized the discussion and
that there is every reason to believe
that the athletic relations between the
two universities will be continued.
1t is expected that another conference
will be held at New Haven in the near
future, this to be followed by still other
meetings. At Saturdays conference
neither university showed a disposition
to insist upon its own rules so far as
they antagonized the rules of the other.
The case of Glass was not mentioned.
The keynote of the discussion was Il
mutual desire Cor satisfactory agree
ment in the interests Of pure sport. A
provisional set of rules was drawn up
to be further considered later.
