WHY LABOR IS SCARCE IN THE
SOUTH.

A few days ago Senator Simmons,
In his speech on the Emigration Bill,
expressed what appeared to be gen.
uine lament that the South was 80
of its labor. he said
he did not know whether we wanted
the Italians and lower order Of Ia
borers from abroad or not, but we
did want some Of the best kind Of
laborers form anywhere that we
could get them.
Mr.. Simmons has a very short
memory, or else he Is trying to for
get the truth, which Is that no one
In North Carolina Is more response
BILE than he for the present scarcity
Of laborers on the farms of the
State. The two lawIess "redshirt"
campaigns, conceived and carried on
by him, did more to drive from the
farms of the State the best labor
that Southern farmers have ever
had or ever will have than any and
all other causes combined for the last
quarter of q century.
Ifthe South could tomorrow get rid
of every negro In it and could replace
every one with some foreign ele-
mept, it is doubtful If it would be
q good exchange. But that is i'm
possible, for everyone knows that
we will always have certain num-
Der of negro laborers with US in the
State, and that being 30, it will al
ways be very difficult to get the best
class Of foreign labor to come South
and work side by side with the ne
gro. Therefore, it behooves us to
keep and train and improve the ne.
gro laborer that we have to their
utmost.
Now, since the negroes are dis
franchised Except the few who vote
the democratic ticket), it does seem
that politicians of the Simmons class
might let the negro question and the
labor question alone, inasmuch as they
do no good and only do harm every
time they act or speak. But they
will not, for race feeling and sec
tioDal prejudice is their professional
stock in trade. They have lived
and thrived by 1t. They have farmed
the farmers for office. They will
never stop their harmful and selfish
course till they are severely rebuked
by the people.
It is time this was done. The
growing and developing South
prospecting in spite of that class OF
professional politicians-needs a diff:
ferent kind of men in the lead. The
hour has come for a change. Let
the people act.

Since there are many Counties
without . County Republican news
paper THE CAUCASIAN will publish
notices for calls for primaries and
county conventions for any county
chairman who will send the same

The plan of organization of the
Republican party in this State re-
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

THE wADRsBoRo LYNCHISs.

The details Of the lynching Of John
v. Johnson at Wadesboro made Ii
one Of the worst instances Of mob
violence In the history Of the State,
and 1t Is TO be hoped that those re-
sponsible for the outrage will be
prosecuted to the full extent Of the
law and punished for their crime.
Unfortunately the probability 10 that
they will go unwhipped Of justice,
for that is the history of such cases.
Observer.
The crime Of Mr.. johnson was
not the one for which lynching IL
justified. He shot his uncle he was
taken into custody by the officers Of
the law and placed in jail, and in
due course Of judicial procedure was
tried for murder. There was hung
jury, though it was understood that
there were eleven jurors for murder
in the second degree, the other juror
being for murder in the first degree.
johnson had been placed in jail again
to await q new trial, when a mob
breaks into the Jail and proceeds to
hang johnson to telegraph pole.
What has occurred in North Caro-
lima that has destroyed the hitherto
universal generation for law? What
has created this spirit of lawless-
ness ? We take 1t that no one, no
matter what his politics. will deny
that the two lawless redshirt cam
paigns, inaugurated and run by SEN
ator Simmons, are largely response
bic for this deplorable and horrible
condition of things.
The seeds of lawlessness thus sown,
began by justifying the lynching of
the negro for the one crime; soon it
progressed to justifying lynching
where q negro had committed any
crime, even the crime of petty
lying; next the mob spirit reached
the point where it would lynch the
white man for the one crime; now
it has progressed to where it will
lynch a white man for any crime
when it suits the whim of the mob.
The scene of this lynching was
one of the very storm centers of the
bloody redshirt campaign, which
Senator Simmons inaugurated and
carried to its devilish extremes.

MITCHELL FOR JUDGE ADAMS.

Mitchell, the home County of
Judge Pritchard, was the first to in
struct her delegates for Blackburn,
first, last and all the time.-Weekly
Tar Heel.
The Daily Industrial News at once
interviewed Hon. Thos. 8. Rollins
as to the truth of the above state
ment in the Tar Heel. The inter
view, in part, is as follows:
"Mr. Rollins said that the report
circulated and the statement pub
lished in this weeks Tar Heel, that
the delegates from Mitchell County
were instructed to. vote for Mr..
Blackburn was false, and lie out of
the whole cloth.
"Mitchell County is the banner
Republican county in North Caro-
lima, and instead of being for Mr..
Blackburn for chairman, is unani-
mously in favor of Judge Adams,
as will be seen from the following
letter which [ have just received
from Mr.. Chas. e. Green, chairman
Of the Republican Executive Com
mittee of Mitchell county:
Dear Mr.. Rollins-Your letter re-
ceived, and in reply thereto I beg
to say that our convention did not
instruct for Blackburn for chairman,
nor was his name mentioned in this
connection. Such report is false
and without foundation. There was
some talk of instructing for you or
Judge Adams, but the matter was
left open, and no resolutions were
adopted along that line.
IF nothing prevents, will be at
the State Convention and, of course,
we will cast Mitchell's vote for
Judge Adams. I do not see how
such report got in the papers, and
I hope you will correct this matter
and say to the public that the same
is absolutely false.
Mr.. Rollins further said that the
circulation Of such false statement
shows the extremity to which the
friends Of Mr.. Blackburn are driven
in their efforts to boost him for cleo
tion as State chairman, and the Tar
Heel should be ashamed of publish
ing such lie when by proper in
vestigation it could have ascertained
that the statement was absolutely
false"
The above is sample of the reck-
lessness and utter unreliability of
the Tar Heel. It is not q matter of
any special consequence whether
Mitchell County was for Judge
Adams or not, for he will be elected
by an overwhelming majority. But
we give this much attention to the
matter so that no one may be mis-
led by the unreliable stuff that ap-
pears in that sheet every week.

Senator Burton, who was tried for
accepting fees for representing clients
before the Departments of the Gov
eminent after he was elected to the
Senate, was tried and convicted, and
the Supreme Court of the United
States has fully sustained the judg-
ment Of the jury in the court be
low. After all this Senator Burton
still hesitates about resigning from
the Senate. It is understood, how
ever, that it has been very strongly
intimated that if he does not resign
soon that he will be expelled. The
Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections has 80 declared. And yet,
if Judge Van Devanter, who tried
his case, had abused his authority to
the extent of taking his case from
the jury and directing them to rem
der verdict of not guilty, with the
threat that if they did not he would
set aside their verdict, this same
Burton would to-day be strutting
around with inflated vanity, claim
ing that he had been "persecuted"
and attempting to make a hero of
himself, simply because he escaped
the penitentiary. This same man
Burton would also, no doubt, be
candidate for reelection to the Sem
ate from his State, and he would be
threatening to demand the scalp of
the sworn officer of the law who did
his duty under the instructions of
the Department Of Justice in bring
ing the guilty to trial.
Judge Golf may be proud that he
is not as Judge Van Devanter is,
but Judge Golf would no doubt have
trouble in getting the Supreme
Court of the United States to sustain
him in his strange action at Green's
boro as they have sustained Judge
Van Devanter in the Burton trial.
Let it be remembered that the law
that applies to the Burton case is ex-
actly the same law that applies to
the Blackburn case, and let it also
be remembered that the evidence
against Blackburn was stronger than
the evidence against Burton. Judge
Golf may abuse his power, but he
can't change the law or the facts.
To the Republicans of the Eighth
District we have this to say, that

We say this now, because we do not
want to see the Eighth District lost

say it because we believe that the
