The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1908-10-08
In his speech at Louisburg Satu

In his speech at Louisburg Satur-
day Congressman Pou said:
Il would gladly give up my seat
in Congress to-day, If it were neces-
sary to preserve the supremacy of
the white man and our Anglo-Saxon
civilization"
That being the case, Mr.. Pou had
better resign his seat in Congress
at once and hustle up North and
work against Bryan who is bending
every effort to capture the negro
vote. If Mr.. Bryan is elected the
probability is that many white men
will be choked of of jobs in order
to make room for negro ofice-hold-
ers in payment for their support to
the Democratic ticket.

ballot privately. without interior
ence or dictation.
I'VE favor, as we have ever ia
vored, local self-government; and
demand the right TO elect by the peo-
pie all members of the County Board
of Education. County Superinten-
dent OF Public Instruction. County
Commissioners, Tax Collectors, and
Justices of the Peace.
I'VE favor an extension and I'M
provement of the public roads OF the
State land believe, that the employ
ment OF the States convicts on such
| work is the best use that can be
made OF criminals convicted OF
crimes; we further favor a law pro-
| hibiting the use of striped uniforms
upon all persons convicted OF mis-
demeanors in the courts OF North
| Carolina.
I'VE favor the establishment of
one or two reformatories for the cor
| rection of youthful criminals con-
victed of minor offenses, and we ia
vor a separate reformatory for fe-
males convicted of similar offenses.
We pledge ourselves to a liberal
appropriation for the care and sup
port of our charitable institutions.
I'VE favor the exemption from
taxation of two hundred dollars
worth of personal property owned by
each householder in the State of
North Carolina.
1--WE believe in the dignity Of la
Dor and the elevation Of the wage
Garner, and pledge our party to the
enactment of such laws as will best
promote this end; we believe that
labor and capital are coordinate
branches of our industrial life-each
necessary to the other-that neither
can prosper without the other, and
looking to this end we pledge our
party to the enactment of such laws
as will, SO far as possible, create the
kindliest feeling between labor and
capital, remove all causes for con-
f1ict between the two, and promote
the upbuilding of both classes In
North Carolina.
1--WE favor restricting immigration
rigidly, admitting none but the bet
ter class to our shores, and protect
: ing American labor against foreign
cheap labor of Europe and the ORR
, ent.
I'VE believe the South should NO
longer hold itself politically separate
and apart from the rest of the coun-
try. We believe the time has come
= when no interest or principle any
longer demand such isolation. We
ask the people of North Carolina to
give us their SURFACES, not merely
because the Democratic party under
it's present leadership, both in the
State and in the Nation, is unfit fol
, power; not merely because the can
didates were here nominate and the
policies we recommend, are worthy
of acceptance, but because every Re

BRYAN AND HASKELL.

Mr.. Bryan was apparently very
much surprised when he learned
that Governor Haskell, until recent
ly treasurer of the Democratic Ma
tional Executive Committee, had
been connected with the Standard
Oil Trust and had used questionable
means to prevent the Trust from be-
ing prosecuted. Yet prominent
Democratic editor in the State of
Oklahoma, says he furnished Mr..
Bryan with copy of charges against
Haskell and that Bryan threw them
out of the car window.
Now if those charges had been
handed to Bryan by some irrespon-
sible person, there might have been
some excuse for not having an in
vestigation of his man Haskell then
and there, but when the charges
were made by a prominent Demo
cratic editor. they should have been
Investigated. But Mr.. Bryan did not
ask for an investigation, but upheld
Haskell against the charges until
public sentiment became so strong
against the treasurer that the lead
ers were forced to take him down
Many believe that Haskell was
appointed treasurer of the Democrat
ic Committee with a view to getting
campaign contributions from the
Standard Oil and other trusts.

Republican Platform for Wake
County.

Adopted by the Wake County Re-
publican Convention at Raleigh, N.
c., August Is, 1908.
The Republican Party of Wake
County invites all electors dissatis-
fed with present conditions, to sup
port our nominees who stand pledged
to the following, to-wit:
1. Retrenchment and reform must
be inaugurated in both county and
city government. Stop wasteful ex-
penditures, abolish offices created
simply for party -henchmen, and
adopt reform in administration, else
bankruptcy will settle upon this
country.
2. The principle of local self-gov.
eminent should be maintained. The
management of highways and
schools, the selection of magistrates
and the direction Of local affairs
must rest directly with the people.
3. Pay the officers of Wake Coun
ty fair salaries and turn the fees
they now receive into the county
treasury. The Democratic party ha:
three times refused to give this re
form demanded by the people.
4. The present Highway Commits
sion, a piece of vicious Democratic
partisan legislation, must be abol
ished
5. We demand a fair election law
which will permit an elector to cas-
ballot privately without interior
ence or dictation.
For the accomplishment of these
righteous measures we appeal to al
good citizens to join us.

There is a marked tendency on
the part of gold Democrats and

wandering in the wilderness since

is especially true of men who were
active in politics. They see. as The

from the Herald simply to show the
Iabsurd position some Democrats are
taking this year. Some of the
cleveland Democrats who refused to
vote for Bryan last time say they
will vote for him this year because
the United States Senate will be

to come and therefore II Bryan is
elected it will be impossible for him
to have his radical ideas enacted
