/ the Greensboro Record, in a column
editorial on the 18th, reviewing the
situation, said that the rank and file
OF the Republican party was aroused
as never before and was backing
Morehead for Chairman in order to
overthrow the patronage machine
bosses, and that the Democratic par

because they have nothing to fear
from the continued supremacy of
the patronage machine, but would
have much to fear from the leader
ship of Morehead. In conclusion,
that paper, in this editorial, which
we publish on the first page of this
issue of The Caucasian, says:
so we repeat that if More
head has his way it will be a
rather cool day for the Demo-
cratic party; should Duncan re-
main in control, things will go
on as usual"
'The convention to be held
here in August promises to be
lively one, but it will not be
fight between the same elements
as heretofore-more's the pity
for the good of the Democratic
party"
The truth is that there is such a
magnificent opportunity for the cleo
ton of more Republican Congress
men and for carrying the whole
State into the column of the great
National party of progress and pros
perity, that every Democratic news
paper and every Democratic politi-
clan is alarmed at the situation and
is ready and anxious to do any and
everything within their power to
help the pie-counter bosses to con-
tinue their accursed domination of
the Republican party so as to pre-
vent it from growing and succeed

THE SLAVERY OF THE FEDERAL
OFFTCE-HOLDER AND HIS LIB
ERTY.

A subscriber who writes us and
marks his letter confidential" says
that the postmaster at his town is
his neighbor and a good friend, and
that this neighbor and friend confid-
ed to him a few days ago that he
would like to see North Carolina go
Republican, and that he believed that
if Morehead, Holton or Butler was
elected State Chairman, that it
would surely happen, but that he fur
Their said his hands were tied, for it
would cost him his job if he said he
was in favor of Morehead and vic
tory. This subscriber then proceed
ed to say that this neighbor of his
was good citizen and a Christian
gentleman, and that he knew that he
was man who was willing and ready
to do his duty, not only to his family
and his community but to his State
and country. He further said that
he believed that a majority of the
Federal ofice-holders in the State
were the same kind of men, and that
they would all, if they dared to do
so, like to work to build up the par
ty and see the State made Republi-
can.
This writer then asked why Presi-
dent Taft does not do what he prom
ised in his Greensboro speech to do
that is, abolish the "old referee sys-
tenn in the South" and liberate these
Federal office4holders from the servi-
tude Of the 'pie-counter bosses and
let them understand that it will be to
their credit instead of their discredit
If they showed allegiance to the prin-
ciples of the party instead of to the
pie-counter bosses.
In answer to this inquiry. we have
to say that We have great sympathy
with the embarrassment that Presi-
dent Taft has been under since his
election. He knows the evils of the
"old rotten referee system" as well as
anybody. and he is anxious to get rid
or them. Indeed, in every case in
our State where fhc noorTo bavo -
en- up and protested against the ap-
pointment of an improper person in
community recommended by the
referees, the President has turned
down such an appointment and re-
rected the wishes of the intelligence
and manhood of each community.

THE COW FLY.

When pastures begin TO fail and
the COW fly begins to trouble, then
1t will pay to feed a small ration Of
grain. The COW must maintain the
normal full milk flow through this
season If she is to be a profitable COW
during the entire tactical period The
amount Of grain must depend on the
pasture and upon other conditions,
such as the heat of the season and
the opportunity for seeking shade in
the heat of the day. Certainly, IL not
fed grain, the COW should be fed
supplementary ration during this try
ing time, alfalfa or sorghum or fod-
der corn, something that will give
her plenty of the raw material from
which we are asking her to manu-
facture milk.-Farmers' Home Jour-

PROFIT SHARING.
A Boston Store Said to Have Carried
II Furthest.


Profit sharing, which in America is
virtually an experiment, has been in
practical application for a quarter Of
a century in England. The number Of
labor copartnership societies there
rose from 10 in 1883 to 112 last year,
with an increase IN business from
100000 to above S20000,O00.
The South Metropolitan company
last year divided $4,000 among its
employees, the equivelant Of a Z l-2
percent dividend on their wages. and
in IS years it has distributed S2,1OO,.
coo TO workmen as their share Of the
profits. Six English gas companies
adopted the profit sharing plan during
the year.
According to Moody's Magazine Mr.
Carnegie says that Boston store has
gone furthest of all in the direction
of making its employees shareholders. -
This establishment, he says, employs
700 to 800 men, the capital stock is
held only by employees and is re-
turned to the corporation at its val.
ne should the employees leave the ser.
vice. Every share of stock belongs to
some one working in the store.

splash Of his oars as he rowed.
Together the man and the girl went

Suddenly the music seemed TO VI

The girl sang on, unheeding, until 1t
deepened to a roar. She stopped then
in fright. Louder, angrier grew the
noise, like the roar of mightey wa
tiers or the casting of heavy thunder,
until the musician brought his hands
down on the keys in an awful dis
cord In the hush that followed the
audience could see the desolation and
the ruin of the places they knew and

BEEF COWS AND DAIRY COWS.


The controversy between dual pur-
pose COW men and those who believe
IN Keeping only strictly dairy breed
goes on year after year just about
the same.
The fact is, both kinds are profit
able. Probably the man and his sys-
tenn of farming has more to do with
the question than the intrinsic quail
ties OF the cattle. A man living near
a large city, who has a special high
priced trade for milk or butter, or
both, will probably do better with a
strictly dairy breed, because he can
soon make the beef price of cows
weight by feeding in such a way as
to get large return in milk.
On the other hand, a farmer liv-
Ing some distance from a large town,
with plenty Of pasture and beef pro-
ducing feeds, will make more money
by raising calves from COWS that will
make large quantities of beef and
not give quite so much milk; that is,
he will make more money from the
amount of milk that he does get,
supplemented by the amount of beef
ne can make from the growing stock,
imam he would by keeping small
dairy breed and depending entirely
upon the amount of money received
tor the milk products alone. Thsre
Is plenty of room for the smaller
dairy breeds, aad there is a contin-
ually growing demand for large cows
