sentiment Of the State to Home
Corners IN Raleigh this week.
1t is the right Of one Who has gone
out from underneath the shade OF
the family tree TO hear what the
folks at home have been doing.
Above all, it is Your right to know
VIA we are. Whether we are sus-
tanning the ideals Of the past; what
sort of structure we are rearing upon
the foundation laid by your ancestors.

This is THE week of the year in
Raleigh. This is the week il every
year when the capital of North Caro-
lima is the Mecca for thousands and
tens OF thousands of people. For
half a century the occasion when the
North Carolina Agricultural Society
holds its annual State Fair the people
make this week the day of reunions
and homecoming and friends sepa-
rated during the year all come to Raj
eigh TO renew DID associations. The
exhibits and amusements of the Fair
draw many, and this year hey are so
attractive that the attendance bids
fair to be a record breaker, but quite
as many generally attend the State
Fair for the purpose of seeing their
friends. This makes the State Fair
occasion in Raleigh every year a re-
union OF North Carolinians.
But this week the State Agricul-
tural Society celebrates its fiftieth an
niversary, and in addition to a bigger
Fair in larger buildings, the Fair au-
thorities and the city of Raleigh a
united to make this week a great
Home Coming Week to the North
Carolinians scattered abroad, and to
have a Jubilee Reunion of North Car
olinians who have made their homes
in other States and those who are re-
naming in the home-nest. Special
invitations have been sent to thous-
ands Of the dispersed abroad to come
back home his week and a general
invitation has been extended to the
two million North C~arolinians here
at home to come to Raleigh this week
and meet all the dispersed abroad
who accept the invitation to Reunion
Week at the State Fair.
The hearts and homes Of Raleigh
are open. 4 cordial and h~ospitable
welcome awaits all who come. They
are promised an old fashioned North
Carolina welcome and an old fashion

Devine's Charges Declared False
by Heads Of N. P. and G. N.
Desperate Effort su Chairman Make Appear
ing the Swas Proves Boomerang Were Receiving Mileage
Both the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific

I understand had acted in charge of
republican campaign matters wrote me
advising that they would not make any
such requests and hoped we would not
furnish any transportation of this class.
We have this year as in years past fur
nished certain number Of annual
passes good in North Dakota, in favor
OF state and county officials, members
of the legislature (regardless of party,
and professors of agricultural college,
officers and speakers of farmers insti-
tutes, clergymen and newspaper edi-
tors. All Of tfese people we consider
are working more or less along the
same lines the railroad companies are
for the development of the country,
but none of this transportation as fur
nished by this company was intended
to serve political purposes.
Yours truly,

rotary Grand Forks, N. D., Dear Sir
Acknowledging receipt Of your letter
about free transportation in North Da-
kota, / am sorry that reply has been
delayed to your letter for a few days
I beg to advise you that we have not
issued any free mileage in North Da-
kota to any of the parties you refer to;
in fact, we have q letter from the
chairman Of the committee stating that
they did not desire to receive such
transportation.
I trust that this answer will satisfy
your inquiry. Yours truly,

D., Dear Sir: have your letter of
June IA enclosing a clipping from The
Grand Forks Herald" headed Mil
cage Books VS.. The People" I had not
seen the article before, because / have
been in Saint Paul very little Of the
time since May /; long trip to the
Pacific coast and back, and another to
New York having kept me from my
office.
On May 10, letter was received
from Mr.. Devine and his associates,
copy of which 1 enclose. Careful ex-
animation was made by my office of
what the company had done along the
line suggested by Mr.. Devine and on
May rs a letter was sent to Mr.. Hall,
the secretary, copy Of which is also
enclosed.
At the beginning Of the year 1910,
this company issued complimentary
transportation to a number of persons
in North Dakota, but not for the pur-
pose Of influencing politicians one way
or the other. l believe it is better
not to issue such transportation, but,
in all states where there is not an anti
pass law, it has been customary, and
still is customary, for the railroads to
join with the state along certain lines
Of development. We have issued passes
and free mileage to the following
classes of people in North Dakota: to
state officers, federal officers, members
of legislatures, all classes, whether
stalwarts, progressives or democrats;
to sheriffs and county officers, members
of agricultural colleges, members OF
farmers Institutes, travelling minist-

| ers of various denominations, and to
editors Of a good many newspapers
In many cases, we have had most earn
est requests from the people in ques-
| ton, that we do issue transportation.
All classes of these men are, like the
railroad, engaged in different directions
in work tending to protect and de-
velop the state of North Dakota, and
| that is the only rea son why the rail-
road has given free transportation,
either in the shape of passes, or mile
age
On receipt of your letter. I took the
trouble to examine personally, our en-
tire record, and find we have not issued
passes or mileage to stalwarts or pro.
gressives during 1909 or 1910. In fact.
the national committeeman, Mr.. Ken
nedy, wrote a letter in the autumn of
1908 saying he did not desire any
| transportation in any form, and none
has been issued since then for politi-
cal purposes.
On the general question of free
transportation, l quote from letter |
wrote Governor Burke on January II,
| 1910.
| legislation and l agree with you in the
main. ! think, on the whole, the coun-
| try and the railroads will be better
off in the long run if passes are elimi-
mated. There is. however, one feature
in your state that is of Importance,
and that is the question of agricultural
development through the work done by
| the state university and the farmers
institute. We are more than glad to
furnish transportation free to officers
Of the state university, and to lee
turers and others interested in this
| farm institute work, so that the agri-
cultural output Of the state can be i'm
proved and increased. We are also
glad, at times, to make special rates for
farmers for some large gathering
where this subject is discussed. II an
an anti-pass law was passed that pre-
vented the railroads absolutely from
doing this sort of thing, it would not
stop this desirable work. but it might
| have the tendency to check it and make
| it more difficult for the railroad to
| handle its part. We could, however,
arrange these features, and probably
the benefit to the state as a whole, by
any difficulty in handling the special
feature mention"
Our company and its officers have
tried to keep out of politics, only ap-
pearing as we have right to do, before
or against proposed laws, and appear
ing before the state board Of eduali-
cation, as we must to ex all parts OF
our property so that the taxing board
may have full information.
Speaking for myself, and for my
company, I should be very glad If the
! legislature of North Dakota would pass
law forbidding the giving of free
| passes and tickets.
trust this will give you the infor-
nation you desire, and 1 have sent a
| copy of this letter to Mr.. Devine, as
judge that the letter of May 25 ad-
dressed to Mr.. Hall, secretary of the
committee was overlooked.
