CONVENIENT WANTS

Restoring lost articles of val ue is one of the important uses of the Wants. The lost and found items often convey mes sages of intense interest to many.
 The safe return of a treasur- ed heirloom, a keepsake that has both intrinsic value and q still great. value of endeared association-such conditions have often been brought about by Want Ads.
 The first thing that the loser thinks of when n loss is dis covered is a Want Ad-and likewise. the first thing that a finder of some article of value thinks of is the lost and found subdivision of the Wants.
 It's n great convenience to losers and finders to have an immediate means of communi- cation in the restoration of lost articles.
 The Wants are prompt and inexpensive.

THE CORRUPT USE OF MONEY.

The Raleigh News and Observer, in
an editorial, says:
AS soon as Lorimer is kicked
out, the Senate should send
Stephenson, of Winconsin, home.
Purchased seats in the Senate
should not be occupied"
In this connection, it is pertinent
to inquire: Are stolen seats any
more reprehensible and dangerous to
the existence of a Republic than pur-
chased seats?" And in connection
with the charge that money was used
TO secure the election of Senator Lori
mer, We would like to inquire why
the News and Observer never became
excited over, or even commented
upon, the various rumors that money
was used in helping the election of
one Of North Cardinals Senator'S?
1t may be that more money was
used in Illinois than is alleged to
have been used at Raleigh, but we
submit that if to secure the election
of Senator the use of money be-
came necessary. or was thought to be
necessary, then the difference in the
amount used does not make the ques-
ton Of morals in the two cases diff
ferent.

THIS STATE "GOT OUT OF THE
WOODS IN 1905"

The Charlotte Observer, comment,
ing upon the action of the courts in
declaring unconstitutional the Grand:
father Clause Of the Oklahoma Con-
stitution, says that North Carolina is
not interested, however, in this de-
cision, inasmuch as we have been
"out of the woods with our amend
ment since 1908" That was the
date when the Grandfather Clause In
this State ceased to be operative, and
what the Charlotte Observer means
Is that there is now no longer any
danger of the constitutional amend
ment being declared unconstitutional.
This is exactly true, yet it will be
remembered that one of the 1.-TWO
great issues" which Mr.. Simmons
howled over as his "paramounts' in
the last campaign was the danger of
the constitutional amendment being
State did not continue to go Demo-
cratic. We suppose Mr. Simmons
and his ballot-box stufing machine
will revive this negro ghost again in
every campaign, though he knows as
we'll as the Charlotte Observer knows
that there is no longer any chance of
the North Carolina amendment being
declared unconstitutional.
AS the Charlotte Observer says. we
have been "out of the woods on that
question since 1908. But truth cuts
no more figure with Simmons than it
does with Daniels.

DEMOCRATIC PROMISES VERSt =
PERFORMANCES.

In connection with the recent ac-
ton Of the Democratic House In re-
pudiating its platform pledges In IA
yor Of free raw materials on the
wool schedule, IL is interesting TO re-
member that Democratic Leader Tn
derwood. when the wool schedule
Of the last Republican tariff bill vas
under discussion, denounced that
schedule and also denounced the Re
publican party as being owned by the
Wooden Trust. Mr.. Underwood then
talked as if he was in favor Of stand
ing by the Democratic pledge for free
wool as we'll as for free lumber and
other free raw materials.
Mr.. Underwood is then reported 10
have said: There is nobody in this
country who does not know that the
American Wooden Company to-day
FIXES the price, that it is a monopoly,
that it is a trust, and that it dictated
TO Republican House, etc" If the
Wool Trust dictated to a Republican
House, then who was j. at dictated
to the Democratic House to put a
protective duty of 90 per cent on
wool?
Mr. Underwood now, as leader Of
the Democratic House, attempts TO
justify his position favOring a 20 per
cent protective tariff on wool by say
ing that it is simply done to raise
revenue, and that it can be done un-
der the Democratic doctrine Of "a
tariff for revenue" Whether this
position is sound or not, the Demo-
Gratis must fight out among them
selves, and the voters will finally de-
eide.
In this connection, however. it is
we'll to remember again what Mr..
Bryan, the continuous Democratic
candidate for President, said about
the action of Mr.. Underwood and
other Democrats who favored this 20
per cent duty on wool. We quote
from an editorial by Mr. Bryan in his
paper as follows:
Let no Democratic advocate
of tax on wool masquerade be-
hind the pretense that he is vot-
ing for a revenue tariff; let him
not add hypocrisy to the sin he
commits against his party"
1t should also be remembered that
the last Democratic National plat
form declared for free lumber. If
the Democrats are sincere in that de-
claratiOn, why do they not now offer
bill to take all of the duty off of
humber, and why do they not try to
defend thep resent Republican duty
on lumber as being "a tariff for reve-
nue." The Democratic party has
never been able when in power to live
up to it's campaign of platform prom

MIR. WEBB AND THE ELECTION
or SENATOR'S BY THE PEOPLE.

The Greens boro Daily News, in its
issue OF June 18th. quotes Congress
man Webb, in its special Washington
letter. as follows:
Representative Webb told the
correspondent OF The News that
in his opinion the BristOw
. amendment does not affect the
cOntro! OF elections by the Fed
eral Government. In the opinion
OF Mr.. Webb, the amendment
calls for just such supervision OF
election of Senators as is now
in vogue in the election of MEM
bers Of the lower branch of Con-
gress. AS is well known, Rep
resentative Webb is a brilliant
lawyer. and his opinion has lot
of weight here
We are a little surprised at Mr..
Webb in taking this position, but at
the same time We wish 10 cOngratu-
late him If he is correctly reported,
it shows that he has read the Consti-
tuition of the United States, and that
he is willing to stand up and tell the
truth, even though he stands alone
in the Democratic party.
The Democratic party has long
contended for the election of Sena-
tors by the people. Now when it
has a chance to secure that reform,
the leaders generally have taken the
position that they do not want the
election of Senators by the people
unless, at the same time, we can re-
peal that section of the Constitution
which provides for the supervision
of the election of Congressman and
Senators. The section referred to is
as follows:
Section 4. The times, places
and manner of holding elections
for Senators and Representatives
shall be prescribed in each State
the Congress may at any time
by law make or alter such regu-
lations, except as to the places
of choosing Senator's"
That has been the law ever since
the establishment of our Government
under the present Constitution, and
there is no reason for changing ii
now any more than there has been
for the last century and more. If
/ the proposition for the election OF
| Senators by the people shall fail, the
blame will fall ON the shoulders OF
those Democfats who refuse to sup
/ port this reform, unless at the same
time they can wipe out the above sec
! ton Of the Constitution.
