RURAL FREE DELIVERY CAR.
RIERS AND POLITICS.

In the doubtful States the rural free
delivery carriers have largely been
converted into a peripatetic body OF
Roosevelt shouters, going from house
to house as evangelists for the Re-
publican party. This is particularly
true in New York and Indiana where
the Democrats have felt the influence
of their canvassing. And now comes
the r. F. d. News, the official organ
of the National Rural Letter Carriers
Association, declaring that Rural
Letter Carriers support Roosevelt ana
Fairbanks but will vote for a Demo
cratic House"
There ought to be no politics in this
important and useful branch of the
postal service. These carriers come
in close touch with all the people. they
necessarily are men of intelligence.
and naturally make friends with the
people along their route. Their high
est efficiency depends upon their nom
partisanship. 1t was a Democratic
Congress that established the service.
1t has been increased by a Republican
Congress. Both parties favor its eX-
tension because the people demand it,
Up to this good hour the Republican
administration has put five routes In
Wisconsin to one in North Carolina
and have otherwise Disseminated
against Democratic States. But that
will be righted.
This most important service, lnau-
gurated so happily, should not pe per
mitted to degenerate into an a~ency
to advance the fortunes of either par
ty. The politicians of both VIII use
the carriers to further their ends IN
close campaign like the present IL per-
mitted. The law forbids 1T ana pupllc
sentiment should not tolerate it.

THE CRUMPACKER BILL A LIVE
ISSUE.

The Republicans have not had a
great deal to say about the plank in
their platform looking to decreasing
the representation of Southern States
in Congress and in the electoral col
lege. The Washington Post and other
Independent papers have been dis
posed to accept the assurance of a
paper in New England that 'the in
dorsement of the Crumpacker propo-
sitiOn was not to be taken seriously"
Most writer's and speakers in the
North have ignored that plank in the
Republicans have said they did not
approve it and others have been silent
in seven languages about it.
Only Southern Democrats seem 10

Gus menace and they have feared that
it was put in the platform to further
wrong and humiliate the South. But
some have been inclined to accept the
view of the New England and Wash
ngton papers and not regard ii as
a serious menace, In the indianapolis
district, negro is an independent
candidate for Congress, and he has
asserted that the present Republican
member is hostile to the Crumpacker
bill, whereupon Mr.. Crumpacker
vouches for Mr.. Overstreet's adVo-
cacy of that bill and goes further,
saying:
"The Republican platform has de-
clared for it. The President is all

street will be returned by a substantial
majority If he is beaten, your dis
trict will be represented by Demo-
crat. and, of course. he will oppose
all attempts to establish the complete
civil and political equality of the col
ored man."
Here we have it straight from the
author of that bin that its passage is
q platform pledge. that 1.-The President

The North Carolina man, therefore,
who votes the Republican ticket votes
to approve the reduction of his
states representation in Congress and
in the electoral college and thus to
rob and humilate and wrong his own
State In other words, a vote for the
National Republican ticket by North
Carolinian is vote to despoil the
mother State of its just rights.
