The Joint Commission finds that

tnon.
90 There was no evidence that
Mr.. A. J. Barwick had any knowi-
edge Of the propositions made by
Mr.. Warfield TO Messrs. Gooch and
Perry, or that Warfield. ever agreed
10 pay Mr.. Barwick any part Of the
pay TO be received by him. The EVIL
dence shows that Mr. Barwick had
for a number OF years been a warm
personal friend OF Mr.. Warfieid's:
that at one time before he was con-
nected with the Department OF Pub
lie Instruction. he had worked for
a book company under Mr.. Warfield:
that in casual conversations with Mr..
Barwick, Mr.. Warfield had spoken
about trying TO help out some OF the
other agents, and trying to connect
up with some other book company or
companies, and has asked Mr. Bar
wick IL he could not say a good word
for him, in which Mr.. Barwick re-
piled that he would be glad TO help
him on any book that had merit, in
any legitimate way, consistent with
his office. At one time Mr. Warfield
intimated that Mr.. Barwick ought to
get some pay for such assistance as
he might render, but Barwick at once
replied that such a consideration was
impossible and he would not enter
tain or discuss such a proposition.
CD The Joint Commission fur
Their finds that Mr.. Barwick at no
time made any effort to influence any
member of the Commission or the
Sub-Commission in respect to the
adoption of any book: that he did not
suspect that his name was being i'm
properly used, and was guilty of no
wrongful intent or corrupt action ="

KITCHIN JOINED HANDS WITH
THE ENEMIES.

Truth crushed to earth Will rise
again"
Evidence IL accommodating every
dav substantiating the charge made
by The Caucasian during the last
campaign against Governor kitchins
record. The Caucasian charged then
and with abundant proof, that ki'fh-
in had not made good his promises
TO the people. but on the other mana
had endorsed and defended law
that did not contain single tooth,
but a gubterfuge which was pleasing
10 the trusts. Senator Lockhart,
Representatives Weaver and Nimocks
and Messrs. Glidewell and Professor
Bruce Craven, and a number or otn-
or Democrats who were supporters OF
the Governor, say that Kitchin has
zone back Oh his promises to the peo-
pie and that the antitrust law,
which has been endorsed and defend
ed by the Governor is not worth the
paper on which It is written. Sen
ator Lockhart says that the charge
that he favored compromise bill Is
absurd, and falsely absurd Mr..
Lockhart says that when he and Mr..
Nimocks went to see the Governor to
get his advice about framing a bill
for a stringent antitrust law that
the Governor would wander off on
subjects and was not interested IN
the subject like he seemed TO be while
he was a candidate. That he didn't
think an effective bill could be pass
ed and didn't think the people were
interest in the matter anyway.
That Governor Kitchin joined hands
with those who opposed antitrust
legislation and secured the enact
ment of a bill which he afterwards
endorsed. If Governor Kitchin did
not LQlnk the dHLi-IIuSl Jill lhdI was
passed was an effective bill, why did
he allow Democratic Senators to ad-
vocate it in his name? If it was an
effective antitrust bill, as he after
wards stated 1t was, why hasn't the
Governor shown the people Of the
State some of it's effectiveness. AS
Mr.. Lockhart says: What trust has
been prosecuted and what outlaw Of
commerce brought to justice?" Again
Senator Lockhart says that when he
and his friends tried to make one of
the Ten Commandments applicable
to large industrial combinations, the
commandment, Thou shalt not
STEAL" that the Governor of the State
fought against them, and with his al
lies succeeded in preventing the pas
sage of an effective bill.
What a terrible indictment against
the head of the Democratic party in
this State!
And remember, dear readers, that
this is no Republican lie.''

The Durham Sun, commenting OF
he Senatorial situation in this State
;ays:
In spite of the hopes of many
that this would be an off year in
politics in North Carolina, the
campaign for the Senatorship is
in full blast. Each of the candi-
dates is pushing himself to the
front in his own way. The diff
ferent factions are lining up and
the lines are becoming more and
more distinctly drawn. Cover
nor Kitchin is not turning down
any invitations to deliver adj
dresses. Senator Simmons is
taking particular pains to explain
his attitude towards certain
measures in Congress which he
has been severely criticised for
opposing. The friends of Judge
Clark, and even the judge him
self. have been extremely active
in all parts Of the State for q
number of months. The Honor
able Charles B. Aycock is pro-
noting his candidacy by quietly

The Senatorial fight is bringing
out the weak points of a lot of the
Democratic leaders in this State. Ev-
cry one who has written on the sit
uation finds out that the other writ

expression mean that their mind is
out OF order, or is 1t a more polite
way of saying you are another? In
either event the Democratic politi-
clans seem to be getting in bad shane.

says:
IF Mr.. kitchin as Governor
has done anything to make any
one connected with the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company, or any
other trust be 'agin' him, the
Weekly does not know what it
is. 1t may be some of the lesser
lights have not heard that the
Tobacco trust took a million dol
lars Of State bonds from Cover
nor kitchin's hands last year
and saved the State"
The Weekly intimates that the
American Tobacco Company did not
buy those bonds without a purpose
in the view. If the Tobacco Trust
or any other trust is against Cover
nor Kitchin they are not saying any
thing about it. Would they support
him II they thought him an enemy
to the trusts?

line with the good roads movement
which is almost epidemic in Texas
the business men of this city have or

the link in the great Texas auto way
from this city to the Gulf coast,
distance of $50 miles. At a meeting,
a committee of fifteen was named to
push the work and cooperate with
like committee in the other counties
Some of the counties have already
finished their part of the work and
only a part of the road remains to
be built. 1t is purposed to make this
highway so perfect in its surface
that automobiles may maintain a
speed of thirty miles an hour in per-
feet safety. Near Corpus Christi 1t
will connect with the great Gulf
coast auto road now building which,
when completed, will extend north
from Brownsville into the Red River
country and will be the longest auto
road in the United States, The inter-
est now taken in this effort indicates
that every link in the road will be
completed within two years To do
this work, many of the counties have
organized highway districts and vot-
ed bonds, some of them in the sum
