DEMOCRATS WANT TO pAsI UEE
IN sANPsON.


Senator Grady Of the I5iI, Sens-
torial district has introduced bill!
la the Senate TO give Sampson
county two extra commissioners, q
treas urer and . tax collector, and TO
have Democrats appointed 10 these
positions. This Is partisanship in
its meanest form. The State Re-
publican Journal commenting on
this bill says:
"Our Democrtic frieuds Of Samp-
son county have grown tired OF
pasturing on the waste places Of the
earth and begin TO long for pastures
green. The good people Of that
county have voted them out so
consistently and persisteniy that
our aforesaid friends have despaired
Of any favors at their. hands. and
are now suppliantly begging Dem
ocratic Legislature to let down the
bars. Senator Grady has introduced
a bill in the Senate which provide,
for two additional county commits.
sioners, a treasurer and tax collec-
tor. This bill further appoints
Democrats to all these places.
ave suppose this bill will pass,
as it is in keeping with the past
record Of Democratic Legislatures to
create new Offices TO be filed by
Democrats. We hope, however, ii
1t fails to pass, this Legislature will
not do as former Democratic Leg.

ARE THE DEMOCRATS SINCERE ON
THE wIIsKEY QUESTION:

During the campaign the m'joTity
Of The Democratic candidates
claimed they were for Temperance,
not for party sake, but because they
thought 1t right. But when the
Ward bill came up in the Senate
last Friday several Of the Senators
let the cat out Of the bag. They
wanted the Ward bill passed so as
to further strengthen their control of
the manufacture and sale Of whis-
key In this State. For this reason
many OF the politicians have
offered to join forces with the tenn
perance forces and thereby lead
the Temperance forces into the trap
Of giving control Of the whiskey
business in the State to the Demo-
cratic party. The chairman Of the
anti-saloon league in the State Is
aiding them in their scheme to con-
troll the whiskey business. We do
not cay he is doing 80 knowingly,
but nevertheless his cooperation
with the Democratic force has been
the means Of helping to give them
control of the manufacture and sale
Of whiskey in the State. The
chairman Of the anti.saloOn claims
that he Is for ultimate prohibition
he will never get 1t through the
Democratic party while the present
machine Is in power. Their record
proves that they do not want pro-
hibitiOn. The majority Of the
whiskey men in the State have
given money and wniskey to the
Democrats for compaign purposes
in every campaign. In this county,
not many years ago, man, supposed
to be prohlbitionist, on the Dem
Ocratic ticket, promised, or at least
his friends did, the whiskey men of
Raleigh that If they would support
him he would not bother their bust.

that the wsy to secure prohibition?
The dispenssries in the State are
only recruiting stations for the
Democratic party. The managers of
these dispensaries are not trying to
reduce the sale of whiskey, but
some even advertise in the papers to
increase their sales, so as to justify
them in drawing larger salaries. If
they think whiskey is an evil why
didn't they support Buffers amend
ment in the House or Senator Gill
liams offer to introduce a bill for
State prohibition in the Senate last
Friday. Not Democrat rallied to
his support. No, this would put
several democrats out Of employ
ment, who are now standing by the
machine, and it would also knock
the Democrats out Of several thou.

AT IL o.. lock Friday the Ward
bill came up in the Senate for con-

the Watts law. Tho bill provided
that whiskey should not be manu-

population. The Fleming substitute
to reduce the minimum population
was voted down. Nearly all Of the
Senators showed an interest in the
subject. Senators Ward. Scales, Nc.

ure as undemocratic. Senator EN-

measure was undemocratic and the
people had not demanded such a
bill. that the Watts law was already
too stringent and that there was :

Spokane. by timely punching Of hits in
the last half of the ninth. The game
was close enough throughout to interest

Both pitchers were hit freely and a
number of errors at critical times piled
up the score. which resulted 5 to 6. with
the long end for Ritzville. Rapp &
Lloyd only scored in two innings. the

In the last half Of the ninth inning the
score stood 5 to in favor of the visitors.
