offered a f1imsy, straddling substi-
tute providing that more should not
be charged for short haul than a
long haul unless the Interstate Com
merce Commission should find it was
reasonable to do so.
Everybody with a thimbleful of
brains knows that whenever more is
charged for a short haul than a long
haul such charge is unreasonable. 1t
is unreasonable on it's face, and does
not need to be considered or inter-
preted by any one.
The Democratic party had dec1ar-
ed in it's platform that such rates
were unreasonable, and when the
Democratic Senators had an oppor-
tunity to put that platform into eff
feet such promises and pledges went
the way of all Democratic promises
and pledges.
This is simply one of the striking
instances of Democratic incompetence
and broken promises.

in his criticisms, made, no doubt,
for the good of his party. But will
this criticism be effective in causing
a reformation? ItShas not proved
such during the present campaign,
even though, since the quoted warn
ing was given, the Democratic party
has had sufficient chance to become
wise in it's own behalf.
The editor Of Webster's Weekly is
surely gifted with prophetic vision.
Another round of Democratic insin-
cerity and the State will be in the
hands of the RAIDS" That round has
been in evidence for all the time of
this campaign and the knockout blow
will be given by the Republicans Oh

TAAIMANY TACTICS IN NORTH
CAROLINA.

It is a maxim among members of
the bar that when a lawyer INDUCES
in abuse of his legal opponent or of
the latter's client, he practically ad-
mits the weakness of his own cause.
This maxim has it's application to the
abuse and villifcation now being
dished out by Democratic spell-bind-
ers in this State.
Personal abuse is not argument,
neither is villification of an opponent
to be considered in any other light
than that of indicating weakness and
a lack of resourcefulness on the
part of the speaker. More than this
when the truth in opposition has beer
proved, it is rank moral and physica
cowardice to continue tactics tina

who works for Tammany Hall il

OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.

Elsewhere in this issue is a care
full review of the records of the two
parties on the great question of edu-
cation. Facts and figures are pre-
sented in exact outline and these
make the strongest argument pos
sible in behalf of the claim that the
Republican party has accomplished
great results in providing the ways
and means by which this education
may be obtained by the children of
the State.
Elaborate argument is not needed
in question, a very vital question,
Of this character. 1t should be add
ed, however. that the Democratic
party has invariably claimed the sole
credit for advancing the cause of ed
ucation in the State, a claim now
shown to be untrue and in itself H.

jury of the people actual facts speak
much more effectively than unproven
