tempt Of his court, which led the
Durham Herald to observe as fol-
lows: eff magistrates are to be al
lowed to send people to Jail for con-
tempt Of court it is high time an
effort was being made to raise the
standard of the occupants Of this

The Herald has forgotten that the
legislature, the "good government"
crowd, if you please, appointed many
of these magistrates in payment for
some devilment they had done in the
interest of the party during the cam
paign. Can you expect the ''stand-
ard" to be high under such cireum-

The Wake County grand jury in
making their report to Judge JUS
tice Saturday, stated that the county
Jail was in good condition and the
inmates seemed satisfied.
So it seems tnat it is no punish
ment whatever to place persons in
the Wake county Jail. If the man
agement doesn't mind they will be
overcrowded with applications for
admission from those ON the outside
who are NOT SATISFIED.

but hardly any one goes to the polls,

dence throughout the whole financial
world in the integrity of Mexico.
Money is pouring in to develop the
wonderful resources of the country,
and all because Diaz is there. When
he first came to power, robbery and
corruption were rife. Now a held

can travel without fear throughout
the length and breadth Of the land.

SHOULD PROVIDE FOR THE
1NSA

INSANE.
Now comes the news from Lex
ington that during the past few
days two insane persons have been
denied admittance in the insane
asylum at Morganton. The authori-
ties claim that the institution at
Morganton is full. oven beyond ca
pacity. At Wilmington an insane
person is incarcerated In the county
jail, as there is no room in the asy-
lum at Raleigh. There are many
other pitiable cases similar to these
that we could enumerate were it
necessary.
Didn't the simmons machine
promise the voters in the last two
elections that they would properly
care for the poor helpless insane in
this State? AS usual, they have not
fulfilled their promise. The money
they appropriated to increase the
salaries of their party pets would
have provided for the insane Of this
State who now have to be confined
in the common jails. But what do
these democratic ringsters care so
long as they can fool the people,
draw their increased salaries and Sc
cure enough whitewash to cover up
the sins OF the officials?

DEMOCRATIC INCOMPETENCE.

DEMOCRATIC INCOMPETENCE.
The State Board Of Charities in
Wilmington and Capt. Preston
Cummings, Of that city. made COM
plaint some days ago of cruel treat
msnt TO the convicts employed by
the county at Castle Haynes. Capt.
Cummings stated that one convict
had been beaten so severely that he
died as the result of his injuries.
Judge Council, who was then
holding court in Wilmington, or
dered the grand jury to investigate
the charges. The finding of the
grand jury was as follows:
GAS per instructions Of the court
the grand jury has investigated the
alleged cruelty Of convicts in most
thorough manner, having examined
So convicts privately and under
oath, and also about 15 other wit.
nesses. From the best testimony
that we can gather from our inves-
cations, the grand jury are Of the
opinion that there is some fOunda-
ton for the alleged cruelty to con-
victs, and after due consideration we
do recommend severe reprimand
to Superintendent w. III. Shearin
and a presentment for brutal treat
ment of convicts by Foreman Ho-
cult.
"The grand jury also recommends
that the superintendent discharge
without delay one Gurganus, who is
q guard at the Castle Haynes camp,
on account of drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct in and around the
camp.
s'It has also come to the grand
jury's knowledge that a convict died
in the last few months very sud-
denly, in about twenty minutes af-
ter being whipped at the Caslle
Haynes camp, and this convict was
buried without an inquest being
held over his body; and it appears
to our body that where sudden
death of a convict Of this nature &C.
ours a coroner's inquest should be
held and the responsibility placed,
if any. We have been informed by
the coroner of the county that he
has never been requested to hold an
inquest over any cOnvict's body"
Can it be possible that such con-
ditions exist under democratic good
government. 1t has not been long
while since several of the convicts
at Castle Hayne were almost eaten
up by body lice and the camp was
found in a filthy condition. About
two years ago many convicts at Ma
rion were treated most cruelty by
the guards. They were marched
many miles through snow and frozen
ground and were forced to wade the
streams and carry the guards on
their backs until some gave out
then they were thrown in wagons,
where they actually froze. Near
Statesville few days ago two young
young conVicts were beaten almost
to death by the boss of the road
gang. And now four OF the attend
ants of the Insane Asylum at Raleigh
are under Indictment for causing the
death of one Of the patients Of that
institution.
All Of this incompetency is un-
der democratic "good government"
And this was the crowd that prom.
ised the voters in '9S and 1900 that
if they would put them in power
we would have good government
and law and order in this State. |
They were put in power and we
have had a reign Of lawlessness In
this State ever since, and with more !!
incompetent officials holding Office
than ever before. Will the voters
be fooled again?
