judges are mot only not infalible, but
not incorruptible."
The first of the references was made
to Judge Smith Mcpherson of Iowa.

the New York World of the 30th of
March last as having appeared at a
banquet to Governor CUmmins at Coun-
ell Bluffs in such a condition as mot

Mr.. Garter defended Judge Mcpherson
as a man of great learning and of pro-
bity OF chara cter. If in participating
in the banquet he had entered into the
spirit of the occasion, he had merely
shown himself as a good fellow He
criticized the course of the man who
had given out the occurrences of the
banquet. He had never heard any one
intimate that Judge Mcpherson was
guilty of an excess i'm the use of in
toxicants.
Mr.. Deliver and Mr.. Perkins also de-
Tended Judge Mcpherson. Mr.. Perkins

hotel with Judge Mcpherson for four
years he knew him TO be a teetotaller

In the Guilford County Demo-
cratic Convention last Saturday a
heated discussion began over a reso-
luton to endorse Congressman w. w.
Kitchin. Many delegates objected
because Mr.. Kitchin had voted
against the Southern fast mail s'sub-
sidy," but the resolution was finally
passed. Senators Simmons and
Overman's friends then thought
they should be endorsed, which
brought forth another heated discus
sion as the following from the
Greensboro Record (democratic) will
show:
"Judge Strudwick objected to the
Taylor resolution, giving as his rea-
son that the convention had just en-
dorsed Congressman Kitchin, who
voted against the subsidy to the
Southern Railway and declaring
that the Democratic party is op-
posed to subsidies of any kind, and
now, said the speaker, will this con-
vention turn completely around and
endorse Senator Simmons, a man
who voted for the "subsidy ?"
however, the resolution endorsing
Simmons was finally passed. 1t
would appear that the Convention
endorsed one man because he voted
for the 'ssubsidy" and endorsed an
other because he voted against the
''subsidy."

The Tar Heel charges that Senator
Butler has never voted Republican
ticket. He has voted since 1894 the
same kind of State Republican
ticket each year that everybody op-
posed to the Democratic machine
has voted.
In the last campaign he was cam
paigning in the West under the d.
rection Of the Republican National
Committee and Republican State
Committees. He requested that his
last appointment should be on Satur.
day before the election so he could
reach home. But by urgent request
he remained to speak in Indiana in
Congressman Landis' District on
Monday night before the election.
This is his excuse for not being able
to vote at the last election.
Now will the Tar Heel explain
why is hero did not vote in the last
election?

3 Since there are many Counties
without County Republican news
paper THE CAUCASIAN will publish
notices for calls for primaries and

The plan of organization Of the

quires such notices to be given or
published fifteen days prior to the
holding OF the primaries and county
conventions.
Every good Republican ought to
strive TO get out as full an attend

be done unless sufficient notice Of

THE CAUCASIAN will gladly yield .

THE RIGHT KIND OF A COUNTY
CHAIRMAN AND THE WRONG
KIND.
Have the primaries been called for
your voting precinct =? When they
are, be sure to 60, and send your best
men as delegates to your County
Convention. Be sure to make no
mistake when you elect County
Chairman. If you elect the wrong
man, your party will suffer for the
next two years. Be sure to elect a
man who wants to build up the
party. Whatever you do, don't
elect man who wants to keep the
party as small patronage machine.
If you elect the right man your
party will grow, for everything is
now favorable for such growth.

that Revenue Deputy Collector had

THE REAL ENEMIES OF REPUBLI

CAN SUCCESS.
How is the Republican party to
grow except by gaining recruits
from the former Populists and from
the Democratic party? Then what
is the matter with these Republicans
who fight those who have come and
who are coming to the Republican
party?
Let those, who want to make
North Carolina Republican State,
beware of such leaders. They do
not want the party to grow. They
want small patronage machine.
It is they, and not the Democratic
party, who are the worst enemies to
Republican growth and success.
Then let those who want the
party to grow be sure to go to the
primaries and send their best men to
the County Conventions, and elect q
live, progressive man for County
Chairman in each County.

If you want your voice to count
for the upbuilding of your party,
then go to your township primaries
and vote for what you want. That
is the only chance you have. If you
let men, who are patronage machine
heelers control your township or
precinct primaries, then they will
control your County Conventions
and elect County Chairman and
delegates to all Conventions, who are
against everything that you are for.
If you fail in this, then the evil eff
fects will be felt in your County and
in all Conventions, District and
State, for the next two years.

When Judge Van Devanter tried
Senator Burton he interpreted the
law as he understood 1t In his charge
to the jury. He allowed the case 10
go TO tho jury and the jury under
the facts and the law found Burton
guilty. Judge Golf evidently un-
derstood the law differently, because
the evidence against Blackburn
twho was charged with the same
offencel was stronger than the evil
dence against Burton. Judge Gofi
thought that Judge Van Devanter
was wrong. But since then the Su.
preme Court Of the United States
has decided that Judge Van Devan-
ter was right, and that Burton il
guilty. Would Judge Golf have
dared to have taken the Blackburn
case from the jury, If this decision
Of the Supreme Court had been rem.
dered before the .miscarriage OF

If Blackburn lie not guilty, then
Burton Is not guilty.

A WORD To NoTkhs-ALL AA2Dos
If you are q Republican, 10 IL TO
be presumed that you want 10 see
North Carolina become Republican
State. Ii 30, IL there any better pa
per you can support than THE CAU-
cAsIAS? If 60. then support and
circulate that other paper? If not,
then Of course you will use TIE
CAUCASIAN.
If you are Populist. or were
formerly Populist, We wish TO ask
you what do you think Of the pres
ent political situation ? Is not Presi-
dent Roosevelt doing the kinds Of
OF things that you and THE eau
cAsIAN favor? Then let US support
him in his efforts. If we should do
this, how Is the best way to do 1t !?
You cannot help him, and the great
reforms for which he Ii fighting by
spending your time In quarreliDg
over who shall get q postoffice in
your community, and doing nothing
else for the party. The only way
we can uphold his hands and en-
courage and strengthen him In his
great work for prosperity and for a
square deal for all Is for US to get
behind him with our votes and our
work and the only place for us to do
this is right here In North Carolina
and In each ones neighborhood. If
we want to help in an intelligent
and effective way, then let US 60 to
the primaries of our precincts when
they are called and go to the County
Conventions and see that good live
man is elected County Chairman
and that men are sent as delegates
to the State Convention to elect a
man for State Chairman who wants
to see the party grow and wants to
see North Carolina become Repub-
lican State. In short, let US line up
in the ranks and become an active
and effective factor in the party that
does things.
If you have always been Demo
Graf, are you satisfied to continue
with that party? Do you, down in
the bottom of your heart, admire a
party of negation and inaction-a
party that doesn't do things but
simply lives by finding fault with
those who do things? Do you want
the present prosperity to continue E?
Or do you want to return to the
hard times and panic days of Grover
Cleveland Do you want scarce
money and five cent cotton? If
not, then let us help to make North
Carolina Republican State so that
we can join the procession of other
Republican States in upholding the
hands of President Roosevelt and
his great governmental policies that
are conducive to progress and pros
perity.
Yes, let us all vote to let we'll
enough alone, let us vote to continue
the prosperity which we have.
Yes, let us all be brave and wise
enough 10 vote for what we want.
Let US do this, and then we will get
what we want and not what we
don't want.

REPUBLICAN HARMONY.

When the movement TO establish
the "DaiIy Industrial News" was
started nearly everybody Joined in
the great effort to secure union and
harmony for the paper and for party
success, ard everybody Joined In one
united effort for party harmony and
success, except the few who are now
fighting the party organization and
the only daily Republican Eewspa-
per In the South.
Who are these kickers ? They are
the small and noisy faction headed
by Mr.. Blackburn. What Is the
matter with them ? Whose fault Is
1t that they are kicking? Those who
put their efforts and their money be-
hind the "Daily Industrial News"
made every effort possible to secure
union and harmony.
When every other effort had failed,
they went 30 far to propose to Mr..
Blackburn that he might name half
of the directors of the paper, regard.
less of whether he furnished one
dollar or twenty dollars of the
money necessary to start the paper,
with only one condition, and that
was that the State Chairmn, whoever
he might be, now or Ia the future,
should always be Chairman of the
Board of Directors and have the de-
Gliding vote.
This was in the interest of party
harmony, not only now but forever,
and insured that the party would
always support the party organiza-
tion as elected by the rank and file
of the Republicans of the State as
represented In State Conventions.
Was not this fair to Mr.. Blackburn ?
Indeed, 1t was much more than fair,
because it gave him, who would con-
tribute little or nothing to establish
the paper, power and influence IN
the control of the paper equivalent
TO all others who had put up all of
the money necessary to start the pa
per. Then, too, Mr.. Blackburn was
then and is now an svowed candi-
date for State Chairman, and If he
should be elected State Chairman it
would give him control of the paper.
This more than liberal offer was
made because it was thought that he
would certainly not refuse it, since
it was not only best for the party
but since the proposition would at
the same time appeal to his selfish
ambition. But he refused it. Why i?
Nothing but want of patriotism,
as we'll as the want of sense, could
have caused him to do it. His action
in this matter shows clearly that he
is not sincere when he says that he
wants to build up the party. 1t also
shows that he was advised, most I'M
wisely and badly by a certain set of
hungry papsuckers, that (since he
was the only Republican Congress
man from the State) he ought to
and would control all of the federal
patronage, if he should refuse to CO.
operate with the party organization
for the good of the party.
1t is clear that Mr.. Blackburn and
his bad advisers would, if they had
control Of the party organization, at
once reduce it to simply a patronage
machine, and that they would not
have it any larger than the "Tar
Heel Club"
The State Convention will have
these facts before it and will act &C
cordingly. We have striven for
party harmony all the time, and
now we are in favor of party har-
mony even if we have to fight for it.
