The true test of progress made for humiliation of

The is not over
Tuesdays elections show to the local option
forces but the result Of the date shows determined
advance towards the goal of saloon extinction.
1t cannot be expected and not this advance will
be one continual uninterrupted forward march, Victory
doesn't come that In this saloon every inch of
ground is hoty contested and come but the
advance will be forward in spite of them Interior of
last week puts it this way:
1T is very commonplace lesson to learn from
the experience of all reforms that they advance by
ups and DOWNS and a down is no sign of dis
couragement, if only it is not as far down as the
down that went before. When it isn't, it is just
the prediction OF higher crest ahead.'
We are long way from being far down as we were
when first began to slaughter Illinois saloons with this
local option weapon. Not city lost to the saloon

A DARK LANTERN MIDNIGHT RE-
PORT THAT HAS DISAPPEARED.

Where is the secret report of the
dark lantern committee appointed to
investigate the management of the
A. & N. G. r. R.? 1t is said to have
disappeared at one time.
That committee found the manage
ment of that State railroad so dis
graceful and rotten that they closed
the doors and not only shut out the
newspaper reporters, but also shut
out the light of day They used bar
rels of Democratic whitewash, but the
thing was SO black and rotten that
they were at last forced to make a
secret midnight report; but that re-
port, though secret, is known to have
been so full of dynamite and to have
smelled so bad, even in the dark cor
ners Of the archives of the Capitol in
Raleigh, that it was permitted to un-
officially disappeared, no doubt at the
/ dark hour of midnight.
/ The people of the State who have
been denied the privilege of knowing
what is in that report would at least
like to know why it was ever allowed
to leave the Governors office. While
Governor Kitchin is trying to explain
his broken antitrust promises, he
might also explain, if he knows.

and why that public" document was

PRESIDENT TAFT'S STRONG AND
FORCEFUL LETTER.

We publish in this issue of The
Caucasian President Taft's letter to
Congressman Mckinley reviewing the
work of the administration. 1t is
clear, comprehensive statement of the
great achievements of the Republican
administration, which shows that this
administration has accomplished
more during it's first year than any
other administration in the history of
the country
Every voter in North Carolina, and
especially every Democratic voter,
should read every word of this
strong, forceful and fascinating docu-
ment. 1t is fa4 mating for the great
truths which it states, about the
progress of our wonderful country.
In short, this strong and forceful
statement from the President is a
conclusive argument as to why a pa
triotic American citizen should sup
port the Republican ticket.
The Charlotte Observer, in COM
menting upon this letter, says that
it is the strongest paper that has yet
emanated from President Taft.
