The principles OF the old "Know-noth-
ing party, which hourished in North
Carolina some generations ago. with the
late Gov.-Senator Zeb Vance as its leader.
are stin subscribed TO by the majority
OF the Democratic party. with some pos
sible notifications.
But the average Tarheel Is not fond
OF foreigners, whatever the country OF
his nativity. To this Statewide trait is
largely due the fact that while the State
badly needs additional population OF the
working class. especially agricultural
laborers. practically no effort Is ever
made to Import foreigners into North
Carolina. especially those who would
come direct from their Old World homes.
If Bryan ever lands In the White House.
be will certainly be expected to do the
handsome thing by North Carolina In the
matter Of handing out the official loaves.
And some Of them are expected TO be
Of the largest size, including a Cabinet
portfolio. The man is already picked out
dt is said- by Bryan himselO for the
Cabinet position.

WHY HE WAS DEFEATED

The salt Lake Herald thought II ao-
visnlde on Wednesday, TO repeat the
story originally invented IN the lr'o-
me office, that President RooseN'it
blocked the same of Senator burro"s'
In his unreasonable fight against the
senior senator Of Utah. That story ~
of conrso not true. senator Burrows
and his supporting hosts lost That hsh'
haco,ise they had no case Whatever
and not because the FreS'ue"'
splocked" their game. They iorihu-
hated number of grave aecusatlohs'
they were lavish with insinuatlons' ana
they employed sophlstry with great
SKIN. but they had no proof that wouin
stand the scrutiny of n judicial mihd'
For that reason they lost. II theS
had had one valid reason for the en-
clusion of Senator smoot he wouin
have been excluded. Senator Hopkins
In his address Jan. IL, 1907, made TINS

senior Senator from Michigan Is upon
the floor OF the Senate, have utterly
failed to make good any case against
Reed Smoot.'
And this he did. He proved to the
satisfaction of the Senate that the
protestants had no case.
That the views of President Roose-
welt were in FUN harmony with the
conclusion arrived at by the Senate
Is no doubt true The President could
not fail to penetrate the flimsy preteNts
offered for the persecution, ana
perceive tho nature Of the mo-
tives. But there is no owl
dence that he attempted to in
f.uence the vote Of the Senate in any
direction. To accuse him of having
welded undue influence in order to OBJ
tain a vote contrary to the evidence, Is
to go beyond the right of a citizen to
criticize the official acts of public
official. II is not criticism; 1t Is an
unwarranted attack upon character
