Some weeks ago Mr.. Simmons
wanted ex-Gov. Aycock to accept
place on the Commission to 60 to
Brazil this summer, and when the
President appointed Mr.. Aycock
member of the Commission Mr..
Simmons wired Mr.. Aycock appris-
ing him of the fact and then went
straight to the White House to thank
the President for the appointment.
Mr.. Aycock had business at home
and could not 60 to Brazil this sum-
mer, and Mr.. Simmons wired him
again, urging him to accept, but Mr..
unnnk s--N--.oN stay 1ns az nOIuc.
But Mr.. Simmons is still interested
in Mr.. Aycock's welfare and is now
boosting him for Vice President two
years hence. The secret of Mr.. Sim
mons interest in Mr.. Aycock is the
fact that his successor to the Senate
will be elected by the next legisla-
ture and he thinks Mr.. Aycock
would be more suitable as member
of the Commission to Brazil or even
as Vice-President than as United
States Senator to succeed the said
Simmons.

Moore County Convention to Meet Jnly Z
Carthage, June 18.-The Moore
County Republican Convention is
called to meet at the Court House In
Carthage on Saturday, July 7, at /
O'Clock p. m, for the purpose of
electing delegates to the State and
Congressional Conventions.
The precinct primaries will be
held Saturday, June 80. The Con-
gressional Convention for this, the
Seventh District, is called to meet
at Asheboro, July IL.
The Republicans Of Moore are
united and harmonious and expect
to elect part If not all Of their
county ticket this fall. Two years
ago part of the ticket was defeated
by only 100 votes.
On account of q general tendency
towards the party and disafection
in the Democratic ranks, 1t Is ex-
pected that the small majority will
be overcome this time.

WILL THE DEMOCRATS GIT To-
GETHEHa


We often hear this question ::
"will the Democratic party get to-
gether In 1905 ?"
Will the lamb and the lion lie
down together before the end OF
time? AS We view the situation
the Democratic party Il hopelessly
split into many fragments. We have
IL from Democratic authority that
the monied interest in the East and
West are booming Bryan for Presi-
dent in 1908 simply to head of the
Hearst movement. They do not
want Mr.. Bryan for President but
they would prefer seeing Republi-
can elected President in preference
to Hearst. When their Convention
meets IL they can nominate some
other candidate besides Bryan they
will do it. But suppose they should
agree on their candidate, what will
they make the paramount issue
you know the Democrats must have
paramount ISSUE" 1t is gener-
ally believed that they will make
the tariff paramount. But suppose
they do? They are not even agreed
on the tariff. It Is true that another
Congress will meet before 1908 but
no tariff legislation can be passed
that will please the Democratic fac.
tions. Even if they had every mem
Der of the next House they could
not agree on a tariff, If the election
of the next Presid ent depended upor
it. Georgia wants projected timber
Virginia protected coal, South Caro-
lima protected rice, Alabama pro-
tected iron, Florida protected fruits
Louisiana protected sugar. Texal
wants protected wool and free wool
ems, while the Massachusetts Demo
Gratis want free wool and pr otecte(
WOOlens.
AS to the money question, tn
Democratic party hasn't the slightes
idea where it stands. In fact tina
party is not united on any of tn
important questions. They may ''ge
together" in 1908, but if they d.
they will surprise the public ant
will also surprise themselves.

DEMOCRATIC FRAUDS

Can the People Expect Good Government
from a Party that Practices Redshirt
Methods
In Oldfields township, Wilson
County, n. G, at the election in
1904, the township went Republican
as it did in 1902, but by an increased
majority. They counted the town.
ship box first and the Democrats
saw they were beaten by about 70
majority, so they then raised row
and broke up the count and poured
the ballots on the ground, and there
were no returns from Oldfields last
election. At the next meeting of
the grand jury in Wilson they made
a presentment of those said to have
been guilty of the crime. But our
worthy Solicitor (Mr. G. G. Daniels,
a brother Of Josephus), being
democrat and dependent on such
methods to secure a e-election,
refused or neglected to draw a bill
of Indictment against the offenders.
But to my surprise the township
this year refused to endorse Mr..
Daniels for denomination but divi-
ded its vote in the County Conven-
ton with r. A. P. Cooley, Mr.. Dan
iels' opponent. This is what this
writer would call ingratitude. But
the Democrats charged Mr.. Daniels
with obtaining his nomination by
fraud two years ago. And if re-
ports are true it looks like he means
to do the same thing this year. In
Black Creek township, this County,
Mr.. Cooley's friends claim to have
a majority, but he did not get the
delegates. It is said the precinct
chairman was for Mr.. Daniels, and
it is charged that he selected few
of Mr.. Daniels friends and met in
the back room of a store and Sc
lected Daniels delegates before Coo
ley's friends could find them. About
the time they finished Mr.. Cooley's
friends came in and asked that they
be allowed to take part in the meet
ing but they were told that they
were too late. Do people think they
can have good government from
party that practice such methods ?
Can party be better than the meth
DDS used to obtain power? IF man
will accept an Office obtained by
fraud, is he fit officer to enforce the
law? Voters, think of these things
when you cast your vote. JAx.

Hon. r. II. Station, Chairman Re-

Henderson County, Henderson :
vile, N. C.
Lear Sir :-Hsving made up my
mind that the Republican principles
are right and believing that the sal
walton of the working man depends
upon the success of the Republican
party, have decided to ally myself
with that party and cast my vote
with them in the coming election.
I was raised q Democrat and I have
never known anything but Democ-
racy. I heartily concur with the
views of the many Democrats who
have recently left that party in this
county and united themselves with
the Republican party. 1t looks to
me as if majority of the Demo-
Gratis in henderson County are going
to join the Republican party; and
for my part, I do not care to be one
of the stragglers, but one of the ad-
vance guard. Respectfully.

Judge Should Be Prompt Also.

At the opening session Of Meek.
lenburg Superior Court Monday
three grand jurors failed to answer
to their names and were fined $40
each by Judge Bryan. The law re-
quires the attendance of witnesses
and jurors, and when they fail to
respond it is the duty of the court
to punish them unless they can give
proper explanation of their con-
duct. But a judge can turn up at
court a day or half day late; he
can adjourn in the middle of q
term and incon venience hundreds of
people as we'll as impose burdens on
the taxpayers. He is not punished,
but he ought to be. There should
be some way to compel q judge
to perform his duties.-Statesville
