IN THE SOUTH.

Listen to what Mr.. McBee, a demo-
cratic editor, has to say:
Il am a North Carolinian by birth,
and a lifelong Democrat. l shall vote
for Mr.. Taft because he has in his
heart to bring my people of the South
back into absolute union with the ma
tional life and to their historic place
as a controlling force in the Nation,
and to do which would immortalize
him as a statesman. l shall vote for
him because he more nearly repre-
sents my ideals of government, of So
cial order and economic policy than
an living Democrat, or my man be-
fore the public today save alone Mr..
Roosevelt, who is the only Republican
President | ever have voted for. Mr..
Taft has administered every trust
committed to him by h Nation with
a single eye to the Nations good and
for the highest interest of the people.
Every permanent interest, industrial,
commercial or economic has found and
will find under his administration a
sure protection, a judicial and judi.
cious friend and guide"
This is nothing more nor less than
the expression of a growing feeling in
the south Of confidence in Taft and
distrust of Bryan, The action of the
southern newspapers starting with the
Baltimore Sun" and extending
through Richmond and Charleston is
significant. 1t is a further proof of
the views of the old line democrats
that there is no longer anything but a
Bryan party.
This was the view Of Cleveland. 1t
is the view Of all the real democrats.
The South which furnishes the back.
bone and the votes for Bryan under
the plea of democracy, is wearying of
the dissolving view issues which oc-
cur to Mr.. Bryan every twenty-five
hours and are re%pudiated as mo con
tanned in the platform" the next min
ute. The southern democrats have
watched the dissolution of their par.
ty with feelings not unmingled with
scorn. Local issues have kept them
to the party which bears the name,
but not the principles of Thomas JEFF
ferson. 1t is certain that Bryan's vote
in the south will fall off n~oticeably
Democracy has lost it's head to the
Salomeic wiles of Mr.. Bryan, but the
Southerners are getting tired Of the

NO COMPROMISE.

The action of Ratliff in stating his
position to the governor has relieved
the pressure of the atmosphere-the
clouds and fog have opened and ev-
eryone knows where Ratliff stands.
None the less until the actual vote
is cast for county local option the
fight is not over. Nor will any sub
stitute be accepted in the place Of the
real thing-no mingling of ward and
township will do.
The republican party must fight out
the issue of county local option. 1t
is the only logical, fair and sane bill
and a compromise will in effect be as
weakening to the position of the party
as the actual defeat

FREE SILVER YET.

Let no one be deceived by the clev-
err evasion of Mr.. Bryan that a plat
form is as binding in what it omits
as what 1t contains" Bryan wants
free silver still. In the last twenty
four hours there is complete evidence
to prove it.
Last Monday Mr.. Taft said of Bry-
an. "He does not now say whether
he is still in favor of free silver. He
does not now answer the question
whether If he were president and an
exigency should arise in which he
would be called upon to exercise his
discretion affirmitively to maintaining
the parity between silver and gold,
he would exercise that discretion"
But now we have the answer. In
March. 1908, Captain J.. B. Ross of Co
lumbus, Ohio. wrote to him on this
subject. concluding with the question:
Were you right then, and if the con.
uiIlOuS were the same now as Ihen
would you favor free coinage of gold
inc silver at the ratio of 16 to II"
On May 12 Mr.. Bryan answered that
he had been right in 1896 and il the
conditions should ever again become
the same as they were at that time,
the demand for the restoration of bi
metallism would be the same.
This letter was marked personal
but was made public.
Then Mr.. Bryan got cold feet or
the publicity OF it anu Jumped Ross
for making the matter public. He
didn't want it known. He then tool
refuge behind the platform gag.
IF 1t is not covered by our platform
| could not discuss it or authorize the
publication Of a former letter withou,
violating q rule which l think neces
sary for a candidate to observe
namely not to bring into the campaign
issues which are not included in the
platform.

Will Maintain Law.
Another reason advanced is that
he has enforced the laws of the state.
He has enforced the laws because it
was law, he says. He is deserving
of credit if he has done so. Whether
he has or not is not for me to say, in
the republican platform adopted by the
state committee there IS a plank, not
only favoring the enforcement of all
laws, prohibition law as well, but fav-
oring the maintenance of the prohibit
ton law. I believe it is the duty of a
candidate for governor to tell you how:
he stands on this prohibition issue,
and I want to say that shall use my
utmost efforts to enforce the law Of
prohibition, and all others. Not only
will I do my best to enforce the pro-
hibition law, but will do everything
possible to keep it on the statute
books of this state. This is more than
/ John Burke will say.

ing and had a general good time in
connection with the discussion of the
political issues of the day. Both the
leading parties were represented and.
the railway men had chance to listen
to the arguments of both sides. +
" NH. Brennan talked for some little
time on the question OF organized Ia
Dor and the advancement and good
that it done for the 1aboring man and
tried to instruct them in the matter of
voting this fall. His address was was
somewhat non-partisan and was well
received. He also informed the gath
ering that he was a. candidate for dis
trict judge and asked the. support or
the railway men. Judge ]. F. Henry
was introduced BY J. B. Cushman who
acted as chairman Of the gathering
and in accordance with the statement

Of good and clean men to state Offices.
II come before you tonight as the
republican nominee for governor of
North Dakota. l will not say any
thing against the other candidate per-
sonally. His intentions, believe, have
been good. The question Is what has
he done to receive the support of the
people? l have asked that question
OF thirty audiences during the past
week and never yet have I received an
answer.
Hot Shots.
There are several reasons advan-
eed by our democratic friends why
John Burke should be reelected. The
first Of these is that he has resided at
Bismarck. While they tell you this
they do not tell you that the state has
erected mansion, luxuriously equip
ped, for the governor to reside in.
They do not tell you that the last leg
islature passed a law which added $500
, year to the salary of the governor,
and that he, is now getting $1,000 more
in salary than any other governor of
N. D. has ever received. believe
that all officials elected by the people
to state positions should reside at; Bis
marck in accordance to the provisions
of the law. II elected, I shall reside
at Bismarck and not claim credit fol
having done 50. j.
eurke's Railway Assessment.
Another reason advanced Is tina
he has raised the railway assessments
Two years ago John Burke travelled
over this state making the broad an,
liberal statement that the railroad
IWere not assessed high enough nor !.
proportion to the assessment Of othe
lpGoperties, and that If elected he Wotll,
!5see that it was made right. What al,
| he do at the meeting Of the board q
Equalization in 1907? When the boar

s. You say that you have advocated
more radical measures against private
monopolies than either or my party
associates have been willing to under
take. You have, indeed, advocated
measures that sound more radical, but
they have the prime defect that in
practice they would not work. should
not in this letter TO you discuss your
attitude on this question II you did not
yourself bring it up, but as you have
brought It up. I answer YOU that in my
Judgment the measures you advocate
would be wholly ineffective in curing q
single evil. and 80 far as they had
any effect at all, would merely throw

so showed that his connection with
the cancelling of the permits of the
druggists of the city was acted upon
wisely and that the states attorney
used very unnecessary and undue ef--
forts to show up the druggists and was
making nothing more than great
grand stand play for political purposes
The judges address met with rounds
of applause and it showed that "Siver-
the Great" is dead issue and that.

ask that you be judged both by the
words you wish remembered, and by
the words that seemingly you and your
party now desire to have forgotten.
