There are many more reasons that
could be given by Mr.. Butler and
every other patriotic Republican in
the State should support Mr.. More
head for State Chairman. but the
above are sufficient?
In conclusion. We want to submit
that Ii Is believed, and not without
some foundation, that the article
published by the Raleigh News and
Observer. and especially the COM
ments thereon. were put In shape by
certain Republicans in Raleigh who
are geared up with the ring bosses.
IRdeed the article was no doubt pre-
pared in the Federal Building The
Raleigh News and Observer can no
doubt get many other such articles
from the same source and prepared
by the same parties. and We take it
that the paper will be glad TO pub
lish them because the editor OF the
News and Observer and boss" Dun
can and ex-boss Adams are in per-
feet harmony in attempting to de-
feat Morehead for Chairman and to
curse the Republican party with the
continued rule of such ring bosses.

became more evident when. On last

Of the progressive and patriotic rank
and file Republicans Of the State. who
want TO throw of ring rule and head
the party toward victory. That at
tacks. among many other base and
false charges. also included the DEM
ocratic lie with reference TO the North
Carolina Second Mortgage Bonds.
When the News. on last Saturday
morning. refused 10 publish Mr. But

and also refused 10 publish Mr..
Morehead's reply TO the part OF 1t

Of which no high-class newspaper
will ever be guilty, and, to our mind.
to which no honest man would ever
be a party. There is not, in our
opinion. a single Democratic paper
in North Carolina, save and except
the Raleigh News and Observer, that
would permit such an attack to ap-
pear in its columns. and then refuse
TO permit the persons attacked to
have space for a proper reply. The
good people OF North Carolina, re-
CARELESS of their political and religi-
Gus views, always have been and al

man or newspaper can succeed in
North Carolina. and does not deserve
to succeed anywhere, that will stoop
to such low and cowardly methods.
If there had been, up to last Sat

they have be-fouled and BETRAYED for

doubt about what their verdict will

In this connection We submit that

true to the interests of our great
State, and also to the party that
stands for the progressive policies
that have made our whole country
so rich and prosperous.
The day of the rule of ring bosses
IN all political parties in North Caro-
lima has come. For this reason, the
next Republican State convention
will turn its back upon the present
raise and miserable leadership: it
will head the party toward victory.
and place its banner in the hands of
John Motley Morehead, which will
mean that our great State will line

Waste Of Oak Trees.

There is no more striking example
on the Pacific coast of the ruthless
destruction OF timber than that which
follows the gathering of oak tanbark.
In the counties of Humboldt and Men
docino in California the industry of
securing oak tanbark has attained con-
siderable proportions. Oak trees Is
inches to 31A feet in diameter, up to
40 feet 10 the lambs, are not uncom-
mon. To secure this bark the trees
are felled and the bark is stripped
The timber is left untouched on the
ground to rot. Until railroad trans
portation can be furnished this waste
will probably continue The bark in
many instances is secured from indi-
vidual claims, taken up by home
steaders, the timber growth being
practically all oak, which is sacrificed
in order to exc out a precarious live
lihood. From 400 TO COO cords of
bark can be obtained from a claim
Thousands of feet Of good oak timber
are sacrificed each year to the bark
gatherer.-The Timberman.

Alaska a Good Investment.

1t is just a little more than 40 years
since Gen. Grants administration
closed deal by which Russia coded
Alaska to the United States. The
price was 100000, and the Car took
about half the amount in old gun
boats, OF which we had n surplus left
over from the war Since then we
have taken out of the territory pro-
ducts amounting to about 1927, 10000
or $S.175,000 per year a good bit over
100 per cent per annum on the cost
As we got little profit during the
first 90 years, we are now taking out
something like 200 per cent of the
original cost But as Alaska contains
a timber supply to last for centur-
les, if properly taken care of, and
coal TO last for years to come, the
bargain was a good one. The fisher
les and other wealth producing re-
sources of Alaska may he made per
petual. Yet a great cry was raised
against the government for the pur-
chase. and the General bore most OF
it.-LOs Angeles Times.

South African Metecrlte.

A South African correspondent tells
the story OF a large meteorite, weigh
ing more than half a ton, which has
been sent by DR.. Rogers of the Geo
logical Survey from Prieska, in the
Kenhardt territory of Cape Colony,
to the South African Museum at Cape
Town. The meteorite was found at
Rateldraai, and it looks like a mass
of molten metal, with a number of
cavities or pockets in it, and where
not earth soiled is of a dark, blush
leaden color. In parts it has been
Clipped with a chisel, or pickax, and
in such cuts it shows small, shiny
specks. 1t is described as a dull.
warped mass of nickeliferous iron, and
DR.. Peringuey, the director OF the mu-
scum, ascribes its advent as due to
the disintegration of some cometary
body.-London Standard.
