Editor of Cauca sion:-On Septem-

Is not only we'll qualified as far as
ability is concerned, but the man who
can command the most votes. That
man, in my opinion, is the Hon. JohI

body in the district knows John At
water. He has represented the dis
trict in Congress, has served Chat
ham County as member of the
Legislature, and the records show
that he was true to every pledge, ant
was at his post of duty at all times
John Atwater is right on every ques
ton. He was a member Of the Gen
eral Assembly that gave to the coun
ties the right to elect their Count!
Commissioners, and he stands to-day
as he has always stood, for the grea
fundamental principle of local self
government.

Moore County Republicans Hold Big
Convention.

Mr.. Editor: Moore County
Republican Convention met here to-
day to elect delegates to the State
Convention. Every precinct in the
County was fully represented, and a
strong delegation to Charlotte was
named. There were no instructions
for State candidates. but the talk
among the delegates seemed to place
DIR. Cyrus Thompson as the favorite
for Governor. w. G. Jennings Of
fered a resolution looking to an
amendment of the State plan OF or
|ganization, which provoked consid,
cradle discussion, but prevailed by
a rising vote of the Convention. The
Resolutions, while not directed al
anything in the immediate future
are expected to set right some causes
of friction in which have been pres
ent to annoy in the past. The full
text of the resolutions Is as follows
Resolved by the Republicans Of
Moore County in Convention assem-
bled: That it is the sense of this
Convention that the plan of organi
zation Of the party In the State
should be amended in, at least, thu
following particulars, viz:
/. The Chairman of the State Elk
ecutive Committee should, in the fu
ture, be elected by the Republican
State Convention called to nominal,
a State ticket.
2. The chairman and members o
the County Executive COMMITTEE
should be elected by the Count,
Convention called to nominate
county ticket.
3. The number of members a
large of the State Executive Com
mittee should be increased from ST.
to twelve.
And be it further resolved: Tha
the delegation from this county t
the State Convention, at Charlotte
be and they are hereby requested t
put into proper and legal form an,
urge upon the State Convention
these reforms in the plan of organi
zation."
Another convention in the count
will be held later for the purpose O
nominating county candidates.

THE FARMERS DO NOT WANT A
CHANGE,

In reply to Mr.. Bryan's appeal to
the farmers to contribute money to
his campaign, Mr.. D. w. Starnes, a
prominent and successful farmer of
Luxembourg, Tenn, writes him a
letter in which he says:
Our cattle, hogs, corn and wheat,
and most everything else we raise
are higher right now than ever, and
We get spot cash for the stuff. The
only sort Of farmers who are not
making money are the fellows who
do not raise anything to sell.
81 am one of the thousands who
could give your campaign fund a
hundred dollars and hardly miss 1t,
but 1 would rather give 1t to insure
conditions to remain as they are"
That is we'll said and the gospel
truth. Every farmer is now doing
better than ever before, and he is
able to, and should contribute money
to prevent change.

Aycock on the ticket. Some of the

feel sure that the majority of them
will resent the slap given their COM

WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH
THE DAILY INDUSTRIAL NEWS?

A prominent and active Republi-
can in a letter sending a club OF
subscribers for The Caucasian, asks
What is the matter with the Daily
Industrial News?" BY way of ex-
planning the reasons for the question
he said that when the paper was
started that every Republican In the
State. was proud of 1t and that
many Democrats openly admitted
that 1t was the best daily paper in
the State; but that now everybody
was complaining about how poor the
paper was, and that now not only
have the Democrats, who were TAX
ing 1T, but also many good Republi-
cans have quilt reading 1t and re-
fused to renew their subscriptions.
He says that he and several others
got up a club OF subscribers, number
Ing about thirty, but not more than
five or six are now taking the
paper and that they are complaining
and talking about stopping it.
In reply to the question we have
to say that all any one has to do to
see what is the matter with the paper
Is a look at 1t. 1t Is no longer a
newaOanar In tho trina oaDco oP +b.
term; 1t has degenerated into an
organ for the patronage machine and
chiefly a personal organ for Adams
and Duncan. 1t makes no effort to
advance the party or print the news
The business management seems
to be as poor as the management oil
the space where the news is suppos.
ed to be.
II the Charlotte Convention will
put up a State ticket that will com.
mand the respect of all the people
OF the State and a ticket that MOI
only wants to be elected but that will
also make vigorous fight for sue
cess, and then put the management
OF the campaign into worthy ant
competent hands, then the policy o
the paper will also change. A liv,
and growing party and a live ant
growing newspaper go hand-in-hand
But a patronage machine does no
need nor does it want a newspaper
And If machine policy is to be pur
sued then the paper will soon b,
stopped or die of dry-rot.
The party and the newspaper ar
at the dividing of the ways-one i
forward to the East and the othe
is backward to the West-and Their
Is no middle ground. The Charlott
Convention will decide, and the PEG

AT THE SUCCESS
TfoN OF PRTTCHARD FOR Gov
ERSoR-
The Wilmington Star. the Raleigh
News and Observer and q number OF
other Democratic papers are very
much exercised for fear that Judge
Pritchard may consent to be the
Republican nominee for Governor.
One says that Il Is a scheme of
Buffers TO use Pritchard for his

Another says that Pritchard holds
an honorable and lucrative life po-
sition and that he certainly will not
permit himself TO be fooled into let

Mr.. Editor:-This will be a hard

WILL THE SOUTH VOTE FOR
FREE LUMBER?

We have recently heard several
thoughtful Democrats express sur
prise and regret that Bryan insisted
on having the Democratic National
Convention to declare for free 1um-
Der in the platform. We must say
that we are not at all surprised at
Mr.. Bryan's course in this respect,
but, on the other hand, his object
and reasons are perfectly plain.
There are a number of Western
States that have no timber, they are
indeed prairie States. Mr.. Bryan
knows that these prairie States, hay
ing no timber to sell, want to buy it
very cheap and he knows further
that though these States have been
voting the Republican ticket. that
the voters are independent and in
telligent enough not to be controlled
by party label but to vote for what
they want; so he is making a bid
through this free lumber plank for
the electoral vote of these Western
prairie States. There are only four
States and their electoral votes are
not very large and Mr.. Bryan, of
course, would not attempt to secure
these States by advocating free lum-
Der il he thought he was going to
lose the Southern States thereby.
But he figures that the Southern
Democrats have not enough sense
and manhood to vote for what they
want. In short. his opinion of the
Southern Democrats is that he does
not have to do or promise to do any.
thing for them to get their votes
He feels that he can make a trade
by which he will rob the South In
order to help certain Western States
and that the South will be foo,
enough to vote for him any way. We
do not remember to have seen any
political action taken that shows
greater contempt for the manhood
and intelligence of the whole coun
try than Is shown in this instance.
