HARMONY, FOR WHOM AND FOR
WHAT?

The Caucasian has received a num-
Der of letters recently asking IL it
was not best for the success of the
party to try to stop all factional
fights and to have harmony?
In reply, we want to ask our
friends who have written these let
tiers, to stop for moment and in
Quire from what source comes this
cry for HARMONY" We know where
it comes from. and frankly and with
out hesitation We say to our friends,
who apparently have thus been mis-
led by the enemy Of Republican
growth and success, that it comes
from the ring bosses who want to
maintain their domination of the
party in order that they may prevent
the election Of Republican Congress-
men and be able to distribute all of
the Federal patronage and with it
ooAu up q pei LOT their
selfish purposes.
The Caucasian can and will have
harmony, and will have harmony
with every man who honestly wants
to build up the Republican party
and make North Carolina a Republi-
can State Rut We cannot and will
not, attempt to have harmony with
those who are going in an opposite
direction.
Every enemy Of civil and religious
liberty in the worlds history has
cried out for harmony" to prevent
reform and progress. The question
is, Harmony" for whom and what?

one knows that the pie counter ring
bosses who are trying 10 run the old
rotten referee system have never ap-
proved the Presidents speech. aud
on the other hand the President does
not approve OF such methods any
more now than when he made his
Greensboro speech. in which he said !:
When all hope OF choice by
the people is abandoned and
everything is given over TO in
fiuencing a distant appointing
power to choose particular men
to perform official functions in
community politically hostile
TO those men, the result is not
good to the men or the commu-
nifty. AS long, however, as the
Republican party in the South
ern States shall represent little
save factional chase for Federal
offces in which business men
and men Of substance in the
community have no desire to en-
ter and in the result Of which
they have no interest, we may
expect the present political con-
ditions of the South TO con-
tinue."

TWO IMPORTANT HISTORICAL
EVENTS.

Two important historical events
will be duly celebrated in our State
one to-day and the other next
week. On to-day the annual cele-
bration of the Moore's Creek Battle,
the first victory of American arms
during the War of the Revolution,
will be celebrated on the field of that
battle.
1t is an interesting and important
historical fact that the Scottish High
landers. who. under the lead of Flora
MasDonald, stood with the Tories
IN that battle against the American
patriots, has been honored by the
American patriots in connection with
their own heroic and magnificent vic
tory. This is the first case that we
know Of In history where a patriotic
and successful people have given
tribute to the leader of the enemy.
The reason for this is a long story.
which We will not take time to re-
count. but 1t is one of the most in
ferestins events in the history of the
world.
On July 25th, the 2O0th anniyer-
sary OF the founding of New Bern,
the Oldest city in our State. will also
De celebrated, in a manner and style
hitting to the historical facts and as
sosiations.

The Washington Post in It's A.
count of the last days proceeding
of the Senate before adjournmett
had the following item:
while the Senate was walt
ing Tor final conference reports

North Carolina. made a cam
paign speech In which he al
tributed the high cost of living
to the new tariff law. Once
during the speech OF the North

Senate, a situation which the

never witnessed before"

Simmons speech but it was no'
there.

We suppose the speech was be-
back for several weeks TO be cor

is such a conglomeration OF conuT
dictory arguments trying TO prove
