of Schools Opinions Of Wake
County Voter.
EDITOR CAUCASIAN We'll, the
good people of Raleigh have man
aged to find remedy at last for the
great disease they brought on them
selves. Only short while ago and
nothing would suffice except "dis-
pensary." Oh, it would be under
police control, and everything would
move on so smooth. They had good
church members and ex.bar tenders,
Notwithstanding all that booze must
go. Oh, now, what is going to
become of some of our big Office
holders who live tony on taxes, and
what is to be done when the wooden
horse blankets wear out that were
given to some of our good people by
certain politician. Our taxes have
been increased considerable to main
tain the politicians in Wake County
and operate our schools. However,
if some Of our dear school boys con.
tinLe to ''shoot up the town" and
dynamite the floors Of the Donna
tories, as they have been, and use
the professors premises as target
ground for pistol practice, don''
Iguess they will need very much
money. Don't say anything about
this, for we don't want the Demo-
cratic Bible to find it out. We feel
sure the recording angel has dropped
a tear on this ere now. We fee
proud of the great strides in educa-
tion that Wake County has made
During Radical rule school houses
we're so arranged that all could gel
the benefit of them. Now they
have consolidated aud only a few
can get to them. There are lots Of
schools that the attendance is not 81
per cent, and why? Simply be-
cause the scholars can't get there
And yet our taxes for public school,
are double what they were under
Republican rule. The County Su
perintendent of Public instruction
gets about five times the amour
that the Republicans paid. Ant
Iyet how much more do the people
lget? Why should some of thu
iCounty school teachers receive NOR,
pay than others wi no hold irst-grad'
certificates? Why should an assist
ant in County high school receive
more than principal in a public
lschool who had attended college? L
not this characteristic of the Demo
cratic party?
| Lots is being said about Bryan il
the Democratic newspapers, and
feel glad that they are, for if it wer'
not for them the people would no
know William Jenny was living
Ion, he is such popular man, an(
sure he ought to be, for, he has fa
vored enough different things in hi
life. He Is good runner, and i
ALWAYS there just in time to be left
People are by him as they are b!
the Roosevelt panic they woult
never have known of either had i
not been for the democratic news
papers. Cotton II cents and wage
Isl 90 per day for common labor is {
Isevere "panic.n Cotton has beer
higher during the fall of 1907 thar
1906 on an average. This is mat
ter worthy of consideration by thu
voting people. AS for myself,
haven't forgotten dear Grover an6
those "prosperous'' days ga wore
to the wise is sufficient" lam no
surprised at wealthy people advo
eating Bryan, for if he ia elected
they can buy as much with fifty
cents as they get now for $l.OO
They can get as much work done
for So 90 as they now get for SIG
Some will say how do you know
Well, sonny" if you can read JUS
look back at the markets and price;
Igenerally. Every time a Demo
cratic President has fallen through
the bunghole of the universe, what
happened? All, "Coxey armies.'
| Gentlemen, I hope you may put
this down in your minds and next
fall simply think Of the poor and
cast your vote accordingly if so, ]
know the result. A VOTER.
