He charged gross mismanagement
and partiality in road matters; un-
becoming conduct on the part of the
solicitor and county chairman incit-
ing disgraceful conduct in the court
house and using oats and profanity
generally on that occasion.
The resolutions adopted were much
along the line of those adopted in i
the sidewalk meeting two weeks ago.
The alleged conduct of the machine
! heelers" and leaders on that day came
in for severest denunciation as an
attempt Of an irresponsible mob to
prevent an expression of will by a
free people. People all over Ameri
ca, the resolutions declare, are ar
rayed against 'bossism and ring rule
in the Republican party and this
mass meeting is determined that De
mocracy here shall be free from it.
Declaration is made for putting coun-
| ty officers on salaries and the ring
denounced for evading this in the
pat. More equal division of Offices be-
tween town and county members of
the party is insisted on, square deal
in county road work, and demanding
representation of the reform faction
as po1l-ho1ders.
He charged that the machine has
a subsidized paper in The State Demo
crat with a connection with the coun-
ty treasurer. He regretted to do so
but was ready to prove it in court if
necessary that the editor of that paper
Ct. G. CaddelD went back on his
friends betrayed his family and now
has become a puppet for the ruin of
his party. He did not wonder that
editor within the past forty eight
hours. 1t was disgraceful, he said
that the men Democracy had entrust-
, ed with office should hire such a
, man. The paper was born in iniquity,
raised in sin and would die when cut
loose from it's "ring subsidy Its
purpose is to deceive the people.
We want, he said, to put the coun
! ty in clean hands, with the officers
on salaries, saving fifteen or TWEEN
ty thousand dollars annually to the
: taxpayers. For proof that we will
: win out in the primaries and in the
November elections read The Daily
News of Greensboro, the Republican
: paper. Every Republican is fighting
this movement. Republicans take tc
: machines. They are all machine
They know in this county that if we
: put up a good ticket no Republican
opposition can stand twenty seconds
: Democracy and Wake county would
he said, be better for having passed
through this political storm. He said
he had worked for six weeks harder
tha never he worked before. He had
stomach for the fight and the next
: forty days would see him in the thick
est of restore the rule of the people
We know what manner of men We
are up against. We have heard and
| have contempt for their threats; theil
: lies cannot deceiveus and in an hon
; est primary they are beat to death
Dot oS ho ca;d
t is corrupting the ballot box and we
must, as in the city election, demand
fair ballot and count or a funeral
, We are going to see that every ballo
| | is honestly counted whether we ge
representation as poll-holders or not
On motion of Editor Daniels Faf

Police Justice Alex Stronach made

mittee of one from each township be
