THEY HAD A PRECEDENT.

The charges against Alderman
King OF Greensboro. has been the
topic of conversation among the pol
iticians of Guilford for the past
week. Mr.. King has been given q
hearing, in which he admitted that
he had sold material to the city at q
large profit. while serving as an Of
fetal of the city. but no disposition
has yet been made OF the case
The officials at New Bern who were
indicted about ten days ago for trad
ing with themselves. In violation OF
the law, have rot yet stood trial.
These officials should not be excused
for violating the law. yet they have
a precedent
The committee that investigated
| the accounts of the various officials
of the State about fifteen months ago
found that the State Fish Commits
sioner had been buying supplies for
the State from a firm in which he
was interested. that he had paid
high rental for a boat. that he had
| rented from himself, and that he also
rented an office from himself. A
legislative committee then investigat-
ed the matter and, as we understand
found the charges to be true, yet the
officer is holding down the same job

Houtson. Texas.
Dear Sir:-A friend ssnds me
what purportS TO ts an editorial
clipping from your paper. which con
tains the following:
There Is Marion Butler or
North Carolina. at present en-
gagged in a conspiracy TO bleed
North Carolina for the bonds
fraudulently issued by the car
peL-Daggers.
There Is not a word OF truth In
this statement; yet you make the
charge as fact and on your own
responsibility.
| have no connection with any ef-
fort to collect any OF the fraudulent
carpet-Dag bonds. / was employed
several years ago by the holders OF
the North Carolina Second Mortgage
Bonds 10 establish their validity and
enforce their collection. The 1udg-
United States established the validity
OF these bonds and they have been
paid. They were not carpet-Dag
ponds, and there never was any faint
or fraud connected with them. They
| were issued by Democratic Legs
Iature. and signed and sold by
| Democratic Governor jonathan
| WORTH and a Democratic State
| treasure (Dr. Kemp p. Battle). The
| bonds were sold at par and the State
received every dollar OF the proceeds.
| Unquestioned evidence to this effect
was before the Supreme Court at the
| trial Of that cause.
Since the judgment OF the SUI
preme Court in that case. l have
Deen approached by the holders OF
several classes of carpet-bag bonds
to represent them as counsel.
have advised these parties that
was not in favor Of any attempt &c
collect any fraudulent carpet-bag
bonds and. besides. that l was salts
lied that the Supreme Court woulo
never uphold their validity.
| You have probably been misled By
certain newspaper in North Caro-
| lima. the Raleigh News and Obser
ver." That paper first published thu
did SO. probably through Ignorance
and malicious recklessness. The edi
tor of that paper knows now, how
: ever, that the charge is false; We
he has never had the honesty o
manhood to make the correction. In
: deed, that paper has just copied you
editorial, without correction and witt
t apparent approval, knowing that
is basely false. Besides. that paper
= in a recent editorial. says:
: THE recent attempt OF the
bond syndicate, which formerly
operated through the Republi-
can Governor and Fusion Sena-
y tor from North Carolina. to in
q Guce Rhode Island to sue North
4 Carolina, has served to call at
tention to the venal acts of the
carpet-bag legislation that ours
ed the South"
e This clearly Is an effort to charg
t by indirection that I am connecte
b with the New York syndicate, whic
recently presented some carpet-ba
bonds to the state of Rhode Islam
a for collection. In order that 20
e may not be further misled. l tax
this means to brand that editoria
so far as it seeks to connect n

or any effort to collect fraudulel
carpet-bag bonds. as willfully mel

We clip the following from the
editorial columns of the Charlotte
Observer of the 18th:
"Ten years ago, says The
Wadesboro Messenger and In
telligencer, there was only one
bank in the county of Arson.
Today there are six-three at
Wadesboro and one at Morven,
one at Lilesville and one at
Polkton-and a seventh Is being
organized at Ansonville. The
savings bank at Wadesboro has
branch at McFarlan and an
other at Peachland. The state
ment of all the banks of the
county, as to condition at the
close of business January 81,
1910, was as follows: Capital
stock and surplus. $272,242.17;
money on deposit, $650.6S1:
total resources, $991,1S3.35.
Such figures show wonderful in
crease in wealth among the
people of that section"
This is simply sample Of tn
great prosperity of North Carolina
and over the whole South during tn
last ten years.
Compare this with the condition
under the last Democratic Nationa
administration, when probably not
farmer in Arson County had singl
dollar deposited in the banks of tina
county, yet the Democratic pol
ticians are trying to get the peopl
of that county and the State to vot
to elect another Democatic Presider
and Congress. and the strange thin
about it Is that they will fool man
into voting for just what they don
want.

New Brunswick, July 1.-The
committee appointed by common
council to investigate the charges of
graft made by Alderman Peter Kin
ney submitted its report TO common
council last night generating the
city 1icials AID oLa.rs connected
with the reports and declaring that
the gentlemen mentioned, especially
the mayor, had been grossly injured.
AS to the denial Of r. w. Turner,
president of the Standard Bitullthic
Company, that he had paid ony graft
the report declared that 1t was a
question of veracjty between Mr..
Turner and Mr.. Kinney, and the
committee feels that the word of
one of the leading citizens Of the city
is worth more than that Of q stran-
ger. The report is signed by Alder
man Joseph H, Ridgeway, William
Goodwin and F. w. Miller, Jr.
in connection with the presenta-
ton of the report the committee also
hal the testimony OF President Fred
| erick Weigel read. This was given
at q meeting of the committee We'd
nesday night of this week, he being
unable to attend the public hearing.
Mr.. Weigel testified that he had
told Mr.. Turner his dealings with
the city was an outrage upon the
taxpayers and that the place for such
people was in some other place, as
1t was quite evident that he did not
want to deal with honest people.
Mr.. Weigel testified that he had
written Mr.. Turner last March to
have ONE one call at his office pre-
pared to talk upon street paving,
and Mr.. Turner called. He was told
there was q strong sentiment In ia
yor of his paving material here, the
people on Easton avenue demanding
1t.
II he (Turner) could come here
and submit a fair and honest bid
open and above board, free from a
suspicion, Mr.. Weigel advised him
that he would vote for it and felt
other members would also, but he
was lot to see any one, as it would
not cost a cent for graft, not even
a cigar or a drink, and he was to cut
out all such business If he was In
the habit OF doing 30 in other places,
and let the tax payers have the ben
eft of every cent.
MT. WeiBSl Also calleQ his htteU-
ton to a former bid of his company
for $2.12 per yard and told him he
could make a bid for 50 IL he paid
nothing for getting consents or for
any other reason. Mr.. Turner
thought this too low and said he did
not get a square deal here before,
1t having cost him a per centage to
get signers to petitions for the pave
ment, and afterwards make a dona-
ton to the republican campaign
fund.
1T certainly did not look right
said Mr.. Weigel, land the proper
place for such people was In some
other place. as it is quite evident
that that you did not want to do
right and apparently did not want to
deal with honest people. l further
told him that he had left me with the
impression that he would bid $2.12
or under and / considered that the
bid which he had submitted Of $2.44
was an outrage upon the tax payers
and that / would never vote for an
other yard of his material for the
city while l remained in the board,
unless he treated the tax payers In
an honest manner"
