Miss KerIing was stopped from landing

good reason that, he has neither the
moral courage or mental stamina to
enable him to do so. Ten thousand
Democrats have left their party be-
cause of the acts Of such men as
Furnifold Simmons and Josephus
Daniels and just as many more will
leave it before. this campaign is
closed They appeal to passion and
prejudice, refer to the ''nigger" is
sue and indulge in abuse without
argument. while we appeal to the
reason and intelligence of the people
and shall win out in the fight for this
very reason When the campaign
was opened the Democrats held a
caucus in Raleigh. They must have
paramount issue, new one, too,
for their old paramounts had always
failed. So after a great powwow
they decided that the only single
thing they had among their assets
was the slogan of Butler, bonds,
Doodle and the niger They made
me an issue and I accepted it. But
they will not meet me In joint dis
cussion of this or any other issue and
their sole reason is that they are not
manly enough to come to the front
and try to prove their own asser-
tons. They can't do this and they
know 1t. Let me ask If it is manly
to make charges against man or
party and then not accept his or their
challenge to prove them or acknowl-
edge that they are in the wrong:

have exposed their tricks and they
don't want any more exposure. Still
am sorry for them and; after this
campaign is over ! propose that we
hold a revival meeting and try to
bring these sinners TO the mourner's
bench. They need such course of
political sanctifcation or I miss my
guess
But as it is now, and IL they

fund of the State"
The cheers that greeted this an
nouncement indicated the strong be-
lief held by the audience in the SEN
ator's sincerity of purpose. In fact.
from the very beginning it was evil
dent that the audience was with Sen
ator Butler and was prepared to &C
cept him as an "issue," to quote the
regular Democratic jargon. His
reference to the school fund was a
particularly happy one. He brought
out the needs of the schools in all
terday said in effect that the Repub-
licans would willingly surrender the
other county offices il they could
only obtain an honest and effective
administration of the funds belong
ing to the children of the State and
that should not be administered
upon by the Democratic ring at Ra-
leigh. This sentiment was also ex-
pressed in his speech last night.
Captures the Crowd.
When Senator Butler appeared on
the stage last night before the larg-
est audience ever gathered there he
was greeted with loud and continued
cheers, repeated when he arose to
address the voters and in acknowl-
edgement of an introduction by Col.
John C. Angler. who spoke in his
happiest vein and ELECTED great ap-
plause, especially when he announc-
ed that he was a Republican in all
senses of the term and proposed TO
work and vote for each and every
candidate on the Republican ticket.
Senator Buffers first words caught
the crowd: "I have challenged my
Democratic critics to meet me on the
stump but they refused on the
ground that I am not respectable.
You stand before me tonight great
body of intelligent and respected cit
liens of Durham, and you appear to
endorse me by your. presence and
greetings. Does this mean that

to take up. their own issue, which is
merely Mary Ann as they are pleas
ed to call me. They have raked my
record with fine-tooth comb and
have found nothing on which they
can hang a single word of truth
against myself and they know it.
But in their lying organ in Raleigh
and from their stumps two hundred
miles away they continue to narrate
their ill-conceived lies and then re-
fuse to give me chance to answer
them save in this way. / say to these
high priests of Democracy, that il l
am their only ISSUE" why don't
they present themselves before me in
person instead of saying these mean,
dirty and contemplate things, lies in
substance and fact, at convenient
and comfortable distance in place of
saying them as man to man and face

point. mo. it never did" And no
one in the audience could remember
to the contrary
Comparing Platforms.
The speaker compared the plat
forms of the two parties and showed
that the Democrats have nothing to
say that means anything, while the
Republicans come out boldly with
plain announcement OF principles
that are for the good OF all the
people but not for the Democratic
ringsters at Raleigh. IT am prond."
