ISSUE IN I'll STATE.

We have been saying all along,
since Congressman Morehead and
Marion Butler conspired together
In the determination to dominate
the Republican State convention
and the affairs of that party gen.
orally, that a new issue would be
created In the event they succeed
ed in their purpose. With the
aid of the whiskey trust the plans
of these 1.-TWO worthless was east
ly consumated and the flag of
Butlerism, Boodleism, Booze and
general cussedness is Haunted to
the breeze in every portion Of the
state.
The Republicans have a sweet
morsel set before them this year.
The situation is thus accurately
reviewed by the Salisbury Post:
"Fhe action ofthe State Repub-
lican convention leaves no room
for doubt as to what the issue Ia
the campaign this year is to be.
The election of Congressman
Morehead and the Incorporation
of the "local self-government"
plank so-called in the platform
can be credited to no other than
ex-senator Marion Butler, for so
late as last week Butler declared
that he had been organizing the
State for Morehead since January.
The record Of Butler since his ad-
vent into the political arena will
answer the question whether or
not he was actuated by an unself-
ish purpose. First a Democrat,
then a Populist, later a fusionist
and finally a Republican, he has
filed his sails with every passing
breeze, and when it suited his pur-
| pose has deserted friends and al
lies to further his own interests.

assurance to the late Senator
Vance, his violation of faith, after

Hampton School Board Rend-
erS Decision on Athletic
Requirements.

The Hampton school board has rem
dered a decision sustaining the facul-
ty Of the High school in requiring the
members of the classes in the West
End Academy TO make an average OF
IS per cent on AL studies in order TO
participate in the school athletics.
Several months ago the faculty, af-
ter going over the situation carefully,
decided that it would work to the ad-
vantage OF the classes to make 40
per cent average for all members TAX
ing part in athletics and this brought
about some dissensiOn among the
members of the classes.
II was said that some of the young
men in the graduating and other
classes were not keeping up their
studies and this was attributed to the
activity they took in athletics. Three
of the members OF the class have
since quit school.
When the matter was brought be-
fore the board, Superintendent John
NJ. Willis and the members of the
board. decided t. stand by the facul-
ty and there probably will be no
high school baseball nine for the
coming season. If a nine is organ
lied it will be confined among the
pupils making the necessary average
in their studies.
1t is said that the High school boys
have accepted the situation philoso-
phically, realizing that the board is
working for their best interest.
