IHE DEMOCRATS, THE STEEL
TRUST, AND THE SUGAR
TRUST.

In the last campaign the Demo
cratic politicians and their organs
denounced the Republican party as
being owned by the sugar trust and
pointed out the enormous tax i'm
posed upon all of the people on ac-
count of the increased price which
the sugar trust was enabled to ring
out OF the people on account of the
Republican tariff duty.
The Democratic House of Repre-
sentatiVes has brought forth what
they call a free list bill, and an
nounced with a great flourish of
trumpets that they had placed in this
bill the leading articles of prime
necessity used by everybody. It is
noticeable that sugar is not included
in this free list bill.
Is there single article of gen.
eral use in the United States that is
used by more people than sugar?
Then why is it that our Democra tic
friends have forgotten to include
this universal article of prime neces-

SENATOR SIMMONS AND SENATOR
LORIMER.

Since Senator Simmons voted to

started no little discussion in the
State as to the connection between
Senator Simmons and Senator Lori

Senator Simmons had Senator Lori

North Carolina with him in investi-
eating and investing in certain swamp
lands in which Senator Simmons was

The question is now frequently be-
Ing asked, on the railroad trains and
in the hotel Hobbies, as to the sx-
tent OF the financial connection be-
tween Senator Simmons and Senator
Lor1mer, and how much money Sen
ator Simmons may have made out of
these swamp land deals through the
investments which he is supposed to
have gotten Senator Lorimer to
make.

SUCCESSFUL CANNING FACTo-
RIEsS.

The Charlotte Observer. in a re
cent issue. gives two interesting items
of Industrial news as follows:
About two years ago a small
canning plant was established
near Kings Mountain. Its first
season was encouraging. Its sec
ond still more so. and IL 10 now
being put in readiness to do
rushing business during the ap-
preaching summer. A little while
ago a newcomer to CASTOR
County instituted a truck farm
near Gastonia. Succeeding we'll
In this venture, he has an
nounced that he will within the
next few months establish a can
ming factory, and the fruit and
vegetable growers in his vicinity
are evincing an interest in the
proposition which offers a most
gratifying guaranty of It's sue
cess"
What is being done by these two
canning factories at Kings Mountain
and at Gastonia can be done all over
the State. Especially, can canning
factories be operated with great sue
cess and profit in Eastern Carolina,
in what is known as the trucking
belt. Not only large quantities Of
fruit can be successfully canned, but
also the remnant Of the trucking
crop, including strawberries, beans,
corn, tomatoes, and every conceivable
thing that is raised and shipped to
the Northern markets from that rich
and diversified section.
At the time the Northern markets
stop taking the trucking crop along
the Atlantic Coast is the time the
fruits and vegetables of this section
reach their perfection. Therefore,
canning factories in that section
would not buy and can the fruits and
vegetables, but would necessarily can
the cream Of the crop, which is a
part If the crop that is now wasted,
but which, If canned, would result
in putting on the market the finest
class of canned goods in the world,
and therefore should be even more
profitable than the part of the crop
that is shipped to Northern markets.

has enacted in North Carolina in
twenty-five years.
He put through the Statewide pri-
mary bill that smashed political rings
and machines in both parties. Such a.
! bill was defeated in the North Caro-
lima Democratic legislature He put
through a wholesome and effective
antitrust law. Such a bill was de-
feated by the Democrats in the North
Carolina Legislature. He put through
a bill to establish local self-govern-
ment in New Jersey. Every such
measure was defeated by the Demo-
cratic Legislature in North Carolina.
Governor Wilson, in speech few
days ago in Norfolk, declared that
the first and greatest reform was to
restore the government to the peo-
pie. He said that before any reforms
that were wholesome and necessary
could be adopted and effectively exc
cuted, that 1t was necessary to smash
the political machines that stand be-
tween the people and their govern
ment, that muddy the waters and
prevent the people from expressing
their wishes effectively on the great
live economic issues. He said the
only hope to get any wholesome and
effective reform was by an appeal to
the people, and that therefore it was
necessary to re-establish local self
government and the rule of the peo-
pie generally as the first step, and
to do this it was first necessary to
smash the political rings.
This speech will no doubt cause
much uneasiness to Boss Simmons
and his political ring in North Caro-
lima. There was not word uttered
in this speech that would meet the
approval of that hide-bound Demo-
cratic ring, which makes it a BUSH
ness to muddy the waters and foel
the people into voting for represen-,
tatives who will serve the trusts in
stead of the people.

statement the Executive gave out a

nothing else particularly to do.
The Governor is reported to be

surprising if he should take the lat

The great steamship Olympic of the
White Star Line, which left Southamp-
ton shortly before noon today crowd
ed with returning American tourists,
lies tonight off Calshot Castle, at the
entrance to Southampton water, with
a gaping hole in her side as the result

Fortunately no lives were lost, and
of the 1000 or more passengers and
crews of the vessels none was in

The accident occurred few miles
from the spot where the American
liner, St. Paul, and the British cruiser
Gladiator collided nearly four years

Bates County's Seventh Annual
Fair was brought to a successful
close Saturday, after a three days
exhibition under the most favorable
weather conditions. Heavy rains the
first of the week gave the fair a most
discouraging outlook, and it was not
until Thursday dawned bright and
clear that even the most optimistic
hoped that the fair might be a sue
cess.
With the exception of the agricul-
tural departments, former exhibitions
were equalled or surpassed, and the
agricultural department made up in
quality what was lacking in quantity.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday the
attendance was record-breaking.
The speed events were particularly
good, and included excellent harness
and running races. Other amuse-
ment features were thoroughly en-
joyed. The concessions were clean,
and it is to the credit of the manage
ment to state that grafters and takers
were strictly taboo.

$50 on French Warship Lost by
Explosion.

Toulon, France, Sept. 25.-More
than $50, possibly 400, officers and
men of the French battleship Liberte
lost their lives to-day when the ship
was torn apart and destroyed in the
harbor here by an explosion of the
magazines.
The battleship Republique was bad
ly damaged and the battleships Dem
ocratic and Verite also suffered Sc
vcrely from the masses of twisted
iron and armor plate hurled upon
their decks.
This is the greatest disaster that
has ever fallen upon the French navy,
and in magnitude is almost without
precedent in the annals of the world S
fighting ships.
The grief which prostrates the fleet
and nation is made more intense by
the memory of the recent review
here, a notable display of frances
naval greatness, in which the doomed
ship was one of the finest figures.
The explosion, which wiped out
one of frances newest and most
powerful battleships, occurred at 5:53
a. m. 1t was preceded and was the
result of a fire. The flames spread
rapidly, in spite of all efforts to ex-
tinguish them, and reached the mag
azines before there was time to flood
them. The magazines exploded with
tremendous violence, sowing death
and destruction in every direction.
