SIMMONS AND TIE PLATFORM

Some claim of Senator Simmons,
Hade during his speech in the SEN
1te on Monday against the reciproc-
ty bill. to the effect that on the ques-
ton of free lumber he was relieved
from the obligation of the national
platform OF account of a letter is
sued and circulated by Chairman Ell
Ter, of the State Democratic Execu-
i've Committee are objected to by
II. ElIer, who has issued a state
ment to the press of North Carolina
le7ying tat the letter in question Il
-orded any ground for the Senator's
position in voting for a duty on lum-
Ter. On the ether hand, tne Chair
a AYERS that the letter issued by
me committee was a strong argument
n favor of the party's platform de-
olaration for free lumber.
Senator Simmons explained to the
Senate on Monday that he, and other
members of the North Carolina dele
cation in congress last winter, were
relieved from obligation to vote for
free lumber because that circular let
ter had qualified the lumber plank in
the national platform and pledged
democratic representatives from this
state to disregard it. Chairman FL
Ter takes issue with the Senator, de-
0ufnO fho+ tho IotTor icC1Tn1 hu TIN
committee was any qualification of
the national platform, and declaring
that this suggestion of Senator Sim
mons is the first he has heard of
danger to the party, or that the ma
tionaI platform had been departed
from to appease the wrath of North
Carolina lumbermen. The State
Chairman says:
'This is the first time; that Senator
Simmons. Mr.. Maxwell, or any other
person eve suggested such danger
. me and it is the first time that
such although rel entered my mind.
/ deny that this article referred to,
"AASA oppOd1OU III >6upp1OAASAL OA
October 20, 1908, was intended by me
to qualify the declaration of the par
ty in it's national platform. This
document has been referred to by
Senator Simmons once or twice be-
fore, but 1 had deemed it unnecessary
to refer to this s~ubject-in North Caro-
lima as I have had no reason to be-
lieve that the chairman of the State
Democratic executive committee is
thought to be untrue to the platform
of his party, or tainted with the Re-
publican doctrine of protection. Since,
however, a partial extract of this ar

The fact that many Americans r
active-minded and interested in many
things perhaps explains why they are
especially intolerant of bores. 1t ray
be said, indeed, that this intolerance
charcterizes that oft-mentioned, but
never clearly deLcriped person known
as the average American. He is moi
necessarily uncivil to bores; he NAV
be polite and courteous to them while
in their society, and the affecting
creatures may guess that they
are bores, but he is not patient witt
them. He escapes from their presence
at the first opportunity; he evades aud
avoids them: he is busy when he sees
them coming, and he has urgent ems
gagements when they seek to detain
him. Possibly the intolerant, impa-
tent one is needlessly scornful of his
tiresome friends, for they are not will

Governor. Hoke Smith had easy
sailing before the Georgia legisla-
ture and succeeds the late Senator
Clay in the United States Senate. The
political career of Hoke Smith has
been a most remarkable one. He was
President Cleyeland's Secretary of
the Interior and afterwards elected
Governor of his own state he at once
became a man of affairs. However,
every sweet has its bitter" and Gov
ernor Smith received a severe drub-
bing three years ago when Little Joe
Brown" whom he had removed as
railroad commissioner, defeated him
for reelection. But Hoke Smith did
not abandon hope and had a second
inning with Brown two years later,
Result: A sweeping, victory for SmiIl
Governor of Georgia a second time
and better still a United States Sena-
tor. How is that for success?

In appointing former State Sena-
tor Edward L. Travis, of Halifax, tc
succeed the late Henry G. Brown On
the North Carolina Corporation Com
mission Governor Kitchin selected a
man of acknowledged ability, distinct
political sagacity and a wide &C
quaintance in the State. He will
make a capable Commissioner and
the c~oncensus of opinion warrants
the suggestion that the Governor
made no mistake in naming Senator
Travis for this important post. He
has done fine work for the Democra-
tic party as chairman of his county
executive committee and served the
State several terms in the Senate
from Halifax county.

citizen, is sueing his wife for divorce

his complaint, we somewhat logically
draw the conclusion that the real
cause of this latest Pittsburg sensa-

Senator Simmons got on the firing
line in the Senate last Monday all
right, when a number of Senators at
tackled his position on reciprocity.
But he stood his ground and the pub
lie is left to judge for itself whether
the Senator came out with flying
colors." The Congressional Record
tells the story exactly as it occurred.

Returns From East.

Roy Marsh, manager of the Lewis.
town Furniture company, returned
last Thursday from three weeks
visit to the eastern furniture centers.
where he purchased for his store the
fall stock OF furniture. Mr.. Marsh
says they were showing many novel
ties in his line this season, as we'll as
new and attractive offerings along
standard lines. He says that he pur.
chased heavily in anticipation of an
immense trade this fall and the class
of goods bought are the very latest
designs. While absent, he visited
Minneapolis, Chicago, Grand Rapids
and other eastern centers. On his re-
turn trip, Mr.. Marsh came through
Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota and
says that the crop conditions in these
states are not as bad as reported.
Some good rains visited these states
during the past two weeks, which
greatly improved the outlook In Sec
tions where crops were not beyond
help. Nowhere on his trip, however,
did he see anything that would begin
to compare with Judith Basin crops.

BURKE GETTING BUSY
ON LINE TO H|LGER
OUTFIT ON GROUND AND WORK
OF COMPLETING LINE TO
BE RUSHED.

The grading outfit of d. J. Burke,
who has the contract for completing
the grading on the Lewistown-Hilger
line, arrived in the city from Flatwil-
low last week and is now strung out
and at work Burke will first do
some work near town, after which
the larger portion of his outfit will
be taken out to the other end and get
busy on the six miles of new grading
yet to be completed. Another por-
ton of the force will be busy driving
piling and putting in bridges. The
steel gang will follow up rapidly, SO
that by the time the grading at the
Hilger end is completed, the steel will
not be far behind.
An encouraging feature of the
operations is the announcement that
definite surveys will be made to Roy
and a point north of Christina for
further extension. This clearly indl-
Gates the intention of the company
to extend the Hilger line for another
twenty miles into the northern part
of the county. which will open up a
