have builded the foundations deep and
broad Now they are resolved to secure
a still larger growth by the use OF print
er's ink Twenty-four of the leading
business establishments of the town have
determined that the best way to reach
the buying public is through judlclous
newspaper advertising, and they have
joined hands in contributing to a fund
for the expense of advertising to induce
buyers to go to their market. Among the
contributors to this fund are three OF the
national banks of the town, the drug conf
panies, the shoe manufacturers, the bug
gy manufacturers, and a number OF other
financial and manufacturing concerns
which have faith in themselves, and faith
in their community.
They claim that Lynchburg "manufac-
lures ard sells at wholesale more mer-
chardise than any city of her size in this
great and glorious country" and that she
"opens wide her doors South and South
west to business making merchants, and,
moreover, they declare that the railroad

from the Star:
I'VE are all agreed on that matter now,

keep our shirts on till we find out that

Mr.. GORMAN P0iNTs,THE WAY.

Mr.. Germans speech in the Senate on
the domination of the legislative depart
ment of government by the executive
bristled with strong points. 1t points the
way for Democratic united action. 1t is
matter for regret that the wise positions
taken by Mr.. German during the present
session of the Senate have not been en-
dorsed by the entire Democratic minority,
for he has pointed out with ability and un-
erring judgment the path of Democratic
duty that would lead to Democratic vic
split milk. The differences that have pre-
vented Democratic unity could not be pre-
vented, and it is gratifying now to sec
chat all Democratic Senators are standing
by Mr.. German as he shows the true line
upon which the Democracy must largely
wage the campaign this year.
Roosevelt is unsafe-his natural gait is
running away" He has run amuck" on
dozen different matters He is the
President of the Northern States of Amer
lea. TO the South, he has given no rec,g-
milton, no kindness, no appreciation of the
great work it is doing. Indeed he has in
suited the South by his official action and
undone the more pacific and friendly pol
icy OF his predecessor. He has been ex
travagant, lordly, opinonated, and has
usurped powers that belonged to other
departments of good government. He has
aired Rough Rider ways and posed and
posed and posed as a high and mighty re-
former But the browning usurpation OF
his administration has been his dictatorial
spirit toward Congress, and his determi-
nation to make the executive supreme.
pointed out the danger to American liber-
ties it Congress remains subservlent to the
executive. 1t will convert this country
into a government of one man power.
There are mary important matters of leg
islation before Congress, and yet the
President has ordered an early adjourn
ment. The majority, anxious to distri-
butte Federal patronage, do not dare to
disobey the mandate of the Rough Rider
Car in the White House. He is afraid
to permit an investigation into the Post
office scandals, and issues his decree that
Congress shall give scant consideration to
important appropriation bills in order
%1lr
post office or other scandals. And the
members of the legislative branch are
obedient to the orders "sent down.
Executive orders appropriate money
from the treasury: executive DEGREES take
the place of recommendations; and in
Washington the President is the whole
thing"
Why not make stand for the preserva-
ton of the three departments OF govern
nent?
Mr.. Germans speech points the way.

THEIR RAsCALITY TRUMPET.

Burlington News.
Since the first day that the public was
astonished ct the unlawful and unheard
of proceedings of McBee, Finch & Com
pany in their efforts to get control OF the
Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad af-
ter having failed to secure by lease, there
have been continual demonstrations OF
raScality, and each day new phases OF
dishonesty come to view. But notwith-
standing the bitter fight and underhand
methods used, the conspirators were foil
ed in their attempt an last Saturday they
attempted to play their last card, which
they had hoped would be a trump, and
save themselves from the yawnlng prison
doors which are swinging open to admit
their entrance, by polluting the honorable
name of Governor Aycock, which, if he is
not known for anything save that, is re-
garded as an honest and truthful man.
The ATTORNEYS for the defunct receivers
saw that unless something was done,
their clients were going to land in the
hands Of the grand jury for violating the
law, and they made overtures to the Gov.
erno1 asking that he use his influence to
stop criminal proceedings against them.
In the greatness of his heart he told them
that he had nothing to do with their
prosecution, and they tried to make it
appear that he had promised to stop the
erin inal proceedings. The prosecution
was the work of the Solicitor of Wake
county and not the work Of the Governor
of the State.
The truth is, the whole gang ought to
be put in the penitentiary or run out OF
the State. When such men as Russell
Butler. McBee, Finch, Day and Company
take every chance possible to injure their
own State interests they become traitors
