THE NEWS AND OBSERVERS Pc.
SITION IN SENATORIAL FIGHT

Recent developments in matters
political have caused considerable
Speculation concerning the effect OF
published criticisms. by the Raleigh
News and Observer. of Senator Sim
mons and Governor Kitchin. Partial
friends OF these gentlemen have been
sorely ~displeased and openly charge
that paper with all sorts of evil mo-
tiyes. They would have the people
believe that attacks" upon public Of
1 fcials, like Editor Daniels is making
upon Senator Kitchin. will ruin the
democratic party.-and in the same
breath, declare the criticisms are
making votes for them. t. A rather
curious kind of logic, isn't it? I
But the Raleigh paper goes right
along printing communications from
all parties to the controversy and
commenting upon them as if its posi-.
ton had occasioned nc surprise or
unfavorable comment. Anything akin
to intimidation does not seem to an
noy the News and Observer. This Is
the way the Raleigh correspondent OF
the Carolina Democrat puts his cp.n-
ion on that papers recent utterances:
"The News and Observer has al
ways been ambitious of the place OF
Democratic Party Organ. It has with
in the last two weeks abandoned that
ambition and now m forth as the
organ of Progressive Democracy. 1t
nc longer pleads for unity and harmo-
ny: 1t is instead doing battle for
the newer type of Democracy.
This is no slight matter. 1t marks
an era in Democratic history in North
Carolina: We have reached the stage
of warfare within the party-of divi-
SIGN deep and wide.
In attacking Simmons for voting
against Reciprocity the News and OBJ
server aligned itself with the progress
sive element in the United States
Senate; and in attacking Kitchin for
his failure to support State Senator
Lockhart in his brave fight for an an
thrust law with teeth. it aligned itcelf
with the progressive element in the
State on the trust question. From
being party organ, therefore, 1t has

within the party.
II / may be permitted to express a
personal opinion. This again: This
- thin c~oa~r are cut of date
whether the News and Observer Is
right or not, is not for me to say: But
that It deeerves praise for making a
Sight within the party for what it
~conoeives to be right, is beyond ques-
ton. No one doubts that, howsoever
the battle may go. when the camnaign
aFainst the Reprhlicans oDens pm, the
Old Reliable will sound the battle
cry, and spreading, her banners
above the battle line. carry the war
jrto Africa as m~ercilesslv as CT yore.
Meantime. since it must so serve in
the dav of battle. who will challenge
it's right to fight now to make enre that
TIE cause it must defend shall be a
carsn that it loves?
1t is plain that the News and 0hser~
yer is against Simmons and Kitchin.
But whether it is for Avcock CIR Clark
remains to be disclosed. So far it has
had kind words fer both of them-and
only kind words"

Figuring ON the Election.

Although the presidential election.
Is over a year of, newspapers r al
ready beginning to figure on the
probable outcome of the contest.
With New Mexico and Arizona ad-
mitted into the Union, there will be
with the additional members pro-
vided for in the Reapportionment bill,
five hundred and thirty-one votes in
the next Electoral College an in
crease of forty-eight. The majority
required to elect the President next
year will be two hundred and sixty
six, as compared with two hundred
and forty-two in the last election.
Mr.. Taft had an electoral vote c.
three hundred and twenty-one. With
the same States under the Reap
portionment the Republicans would
gain thirty-two, and those States that
voted for Mr.. Bryan would gain ten.
The Taft States by vote No..Ia pe:
CalifC' MIA 10; Connecticut, Z; Del
aware, 8; Idaho, 4; Illinois, 20; In
diana. Is: Iowa, 10; Kansas, &c;
Maine, 6; Maryland, q; Massachas-
etts, 18; Michigan, is; Minnesota, Il;
Missouri, IS; Montana, a; New Fam

40; North Dakota, {; Ohio, %: cTe-
COR, s; Pennsylvania, SO; Rhode Is
land, 5; South Dakc.a, 5; Utah, 4;
Vermont, (; West Virginia, 8; WasS-
ington, Z; Wisconsin, 10; Wyoming {:
8. Total, 353
The Bryan States would give the
following Democratic vote:
Alabama. IL; Arkansas, 9; CcIora-
do, s.; Florida, s.; Georgia, IA; Ken
lucky 10; louisiana, 10; Maryland, 6;
Mississippi, 10; Nebraska, 8; Nevada,
,; North Carolina, L.; Oklahoma, 10;
South 'Ekrolina, 9; Tennessee. II;
Texas, 20; Virginia, II, Total, 172
In the new Electoral College New
York with six additional Votes, d
total of forty-two, will continue to
hold the balance of power between
the leading parties in campaigns less
hopelessly one-sided than the last
With New York's vote either side
may easily figure out a majority:
Under the reapportionment the solid
South has one hundred and fifty
five votes.
To win the next Democratic candi-
date must have in addition to the
South one hundred and eleven votes.
If he carried New York, Ohio, New
Jersey, Indiana and Missouri he
would win with one vote to spare,
Illinois could be substited for Ohio.
In place of either of these States the
Democrats could elect with Califor-
MIA, Colorado and West Virginia or
California and Nebraska and Monta-
ma or either of the Dakotas. Count
ing New Mexico and Arizona Demo
| cratic, with three votes each, a sue
| cessful combination could be named
with New York, New Jersey, Indiana.
Missouri, Nebraska, West Virginia
and Colorado. Montana with n Cd
the Dakotas could take the place OF
any Of the three small States.
Which of the gentlemen named as
the probable Democratic candidate is
the most likely to successfully work
the combination and land in the
White House? The one that has the
best chance of doing this, is our
candidate. be he Wilson, Clark, Har-
mon, Marshall, Underwood or some
other good Democrat. 1t looks to us
as IL the Democrats can win II they
will push the tariff question to the
front. With the tariff as the maiE
issue President Taft, who ia sure q

would be at a disadvantage for han

to- give the people cheaper clothing
and other necessaries of life. IN U
Judgment the only thing that could
defeat the Democrats would pc 4

the Republicans. The Democrats
should guard against this danger.

Thus it will be seen that the report
of caucus proceedings on which Mr..
Bryan based his criticism of congress-
man Underwood was published in the
newspapers ten days before the Com
moner editorial appeared. If this re-
port of the caucus was incorrect why
in the world did Mr.. Underwood re-
main silent until his position was as
sailed by Mr.. Bryan. who has a per-
feet right to assume that the matter
had been truthfu1ly presented? How
ever, Just as soon as Mr.. Underwood
denied the charge 2Ir. Bryan with
drew it AMI gave lis authority for
having made it. Underwood should
