BUSINESS STILL BOOMING.

Business is still on the boom
throughout this country and ma
jority Of the people are busy max
ing money without regard to the
recent campaign in Georgia and the
News and Observer in this State
The Washington Post informs US
that the railroad earnings the second
week in August showed ali Increase
of 1912 per cent. Bank clearings
last week were 1873 per cent greater
than during the same week last year.
Every indication is that the fall
business will be very heavy in all
lines, on account of big crops and
the bright outlook for continued
prosperity. Merchants are placing
larger orders than ever. This has
caused the factories throughout the
country to work on full time through
what is usually the dull summer
months, and wherever sufficient la
Dor has been available there has been
great activity. So much for Repub-
lican policies.

''In Danger of Political Ostracism.'
Wilmington Messenger

Wilmington Messenger.
Isn't Brother Reece, of the Greens.
boro Record, afraid that he will be
read out of the Democratic party ?
Whether he has any fears On this
subject or not, he is in great danger
when he dares to criticise a Demo-
cratic State official as he did the
other day. He had better look out.
Suppose Labor Commissioner Warner
did say in report that the educa-
tional conditions in Guilford were
poor and moral conditions only fair,
with financial conditions also poor !;
that is no just cause for criticism
from a Democratic paper. If you
are the right kind of Democrat,
Brother Reece, that is, according to
the bosses idea of Democrat, you
won't say a word Of criticism or con-
domination of any action or declara-
tiOn Of the men who have been
elected to Office by your party. Didn't
you know they are infallible? That
they can do no wrong? That is
apostasy ON your part to hint even
to the contrary?
The Record of day or 80 ago con-
tanned a column editorial on a re-
cent table published by Labor Com
missioner Warner, which said of
Guilford County:
Educational condition-poor;
moral condition-fair; financial con-
dition-poor." It added that each
OF these conditions is "improving."
The Record then goes on to show
by statistics the remarkable progress
Guilford has made educationally,
morally and financially in the last
few years, for the purpose of refuting
Mr.. Warmers statement, and it closes
its article with:
HBut as stated, Mr.. Warner no
doubt thought he was giving relia-
BILE statistics; no doubt he got them,
but a man for his reports needs en-
hghtenment. The money spent for
gathering such data had as we'll be
thrown oway in fact harm is done,
as in this case.

We regard the Landmark, gener-
ally, as the fairest Democratic paper

He takes the proper view of this
matter, in saying that Republicans
are paying the Democrats in their
own coin, but paying one back In
his own coin Is not always right.
The Republicans can show that de-
mOcracy is, 10 great extent, respon-
sible for present conditions in this
State, without misreI r asenting any
one. Democracy in 1885 and 1900
sOwed the seeds of discord high al d
low, among their candidates, and
political strikers encouraged lawless-
ness, advised and stood by the red
shirt marauders and rotten egg
throwers, and the Wilmington mob,
which killed numbers of negroes,
with not u single indictment or cf-
fort made TO uphold the law; stuff
fing ballot boxes, making false cleo
ton returns, depriving white men
of their rights, repeating laws I'M
der which election officers could be
indicted, and many other illegal and
outrageous acts have only encouraged
the lawless clement, and for it we
hold Democracy responsible. Condi-
tions have changed, and We hope
that the good men of the party will
add their influence against any such
methods in the future, for Ii appears
to us absolutely necessary for all
good, law.abiding men to stand up
and be counted on the side OF right
and the upholding of the law, or we
may look for worse things In the
near future.-Davie Record.

MANY STRONG COUNTY TICKETS

MANY STRONG COUNTY TICKETS.
The number OF large and enthu-
siastic County Republican Conven-
tiOns which have been held and
which have put out strong tickets Is
most encouraging. And In those
Counties there is q determination to
win or make such great gains a. to
make victory sure two years hence.
n strong ticket should be put out
and a hard fight made in every
County In the State, for there Is not
q County in which large gains could
not be made. But, unfortunately,
there are q few Counties in which
the Republican organization is CON
trOlled by men who do not want to
carry their Counties, and who could
not carry them if they wanted to.
In such Counties there will be no
aggressive fight made and no growth.

Under Democratic Auspices.

"The good people are, beginning
to realize that they are facing great
problem-that OF a reign of lawless-
ness"-Notes Of City Editor in Char
lotte Observer.
But the last Democratic Conven-
ton congratulated the people for the
reign of "law and liberty,which had
been brought about under "Demo-
cratic auspices" If it turns out-as
it ''has-that we have 'reign of
"lawlessness," instead Of claw and
liberty" it is under democratic
auspices" just the same-no dis
putting of that fact-and now, in the
name of claw and liberty" we must
turn them out. The fight is on !;

The Greensboro Telegram in its
issue yesterday leads its editorial
column with the following:
"NOrth Carolina is conservative
when it is compared with Georgia. -
So far, so good, but the Telegram
lower down in the column gives us
its opinion of Georgia thusly:
''One wouldn't have thought such
campaign as that Georgia affair pos
sible. Disgraceful doesn't begin TO
describe it. 1t was outrageous, I'm
precedented, infamous, in fact. Hoke
Smith and Clark Howell should hide
their faces in shame.n
Reading these two editorials to-
gether we are forced to conclude that
everything our contemporary has
said may be true, and yet it may
not have very high opinion of
North Carolina's conservatism

MILLS" MES AROUND THE
PARTY'S NECK.

The worst enemies to the Repub-
lican party are the professional pap
suckers who are still in control of a
few localities. Those who want to
advance Republican principles by
building up the party, must beware
Of these papsuckers. They will
never admit that they don't want
the party to grow. They are too
cunning for that. But watch their
actions. They will find some excuse
to abuse or misrepresent every one
who wants to make the party grow.
They will make themselves disa-
greeable to a new recruit to the
party. They will try to keep the
people from attending the party pri-
maries. Men of this kind must be
displaced before it is possible to
make any substantial progress.

Washington County Holds q Large and

Cherry, n. c., Aug. 81, 1906.
The Republicans Of Washington
ington County met in convention at
Pleasant Grove and nominated full
ticket composed of the very best
men that the County affords. We
had one of the largest and best con-
ventions that has been held in the
County in ten years. There was a
spirit of love and good feeling to all
with a little exception, and that was
harmonized to perfect satisfaction.
I wish to say to the County of
Washington that it beh0Oves all that
wish to see the Republican party
flourish as the green bay tree to rally
around the banner of truth and
right to all men. l am quite sure If
we go to work from now on that
our gains will be larger than ever
before, not only in this county but
in the whole State. l hope this cam
paign will be conducted in an up
right, honest manner.
The following is the ticket that
was nominated by the convention :

Rockingham Democracy Disgruntled.


The Weekly did all in its power
to get the rank and file of the party
to turn out to the primaries and
nominate a representative ticket.
Many refused to go out and commit
themselves, saying they wanted to
be free to act as their conscience
might dictate. 'Twere useless to dis
guise the fact that there is a feeling
abroad that the Rockingham DemOc.
racy is out of harmony with the
Democratic State organization and
platform, and unless the nominees
act so as to promptly dispel this feel
lug there is trouble ahead. We feel
that this much ought to be said, for

ford to cut loose from the State Or
