The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1912-04-25

1t is noticeable that Senator Sim
mons and Editor Daniels OF the Ra-
leigh News and Observer are doing
everything in their power 10 help the
old Republican referee ring to again
control the party in this State. Why
is this? 1t is because they fear
Morehead and a progressive party
leadership They know they have
nothing to fear from the Republican
party when it is led and dominated by
the patronage referee ring. Besides,
they know also that the Republican
NJ members of the Legislature, If under
control of the referee ring. will never
try to make a strong party record for
reforms against the Democratic ma
chine. They know that the Repub-
lican referee ring will try to line up
the Republican members of the Leg
islature for any deal which the Dem
ocratic rig may make with monop
olies and trusts.

Mr.. Editor:-I have seen n great
deal in the press OF the State about
the conditions in other counties under
Democratic good government" and
| want to ask for space 10 make a
short statement about conditions In
this county OF Camden
Our county in the past ten years. or
since IL has been under Democratic
rule. has had its taxes doubled, its ex-
pense as TO the county fund has been
trebled. and the actual county ex-
pense of maintenance has been moth
ing in advance OF what il was ten
years ago. Why have our people
been burdened with all these increas-
ed taxes? There is no necessity for
1t, and We can't see any results TO
justify it.
Two inmates of the County Home
speak as to its charity. while the roll
of charitable beneficiaries that exist
ed under the Republican administra-
ton has been eliminated by the DEM
ocratic commissioners.
The Superintendent OF Public In
struction, a man who could not get
the support of twenty-five voters of
the county. is appointed by the DEM
ocratic ring. He has been serving
for the past three years, and will no
doubt continue to serve as long as the
Democrats remain in power in the
State. Our County Board of Educa-
ton is not elected by the people, but
appointed by the Democratic ring at
Raleigh.
Heretofore, the cost of listing the
taxable property of the county has
not exceeded the amount of $50,
but this cost has also been increasing
Last year (1911) it cost not less than
$1,000 to list taxable property in the
county.
This increase in the tax paid by
the citizens of the county has not in
creased any term of school in the
county, nor have there been any i'm
provements in the county in the past
ten years, or since it has been in the
hands of the Democrats, with the ex-
ception that new jail building has
been erected in the place of one
burned down, for which a special levy
has been assessed. Bonds were is
sued and special tax levied each
and every year, in addition to the
other taxes paid, to pay the jail
bonds.
The commissioners of our county
have allowed items Of large expense
to the county physician in order that
he might suppress whooping cough"
and also to pay his way to the medi-
cal convention that met in Charlotte.
That matter alone cost the voters of
Camden County at least $50. Never
before in the history of the county
has such thing been known.
What Is known as a board of
health, composed Of the politicians
of the county, who are in charge of |
the other Offices of the county, hold |
their meetings on the same days. |
holding two and three Offices each
and at times drawing a salary of
from $500 to $1,000 for a davis
work, or what they claim to be a |
days work.
This is a sample of what they call |
Democratic good government" and
the people are getting mighty tired |
OF it. If it is as bad in other coun-
ties, the people ought to vote for a
change this fall. We can't see anv
nope for relief until we get a Legis-
iature that will give the people local

 "well, captain" he thought, 'syou are in truth about as puerile, insipid a scoundrel as ever escaped the law. I'll save you your drugged Dutch courage for evidence" But it was not drugged. as he learned later. It was good whis- ky-a leader-to warm his stomach while the captain was studying.
 An incident occurred that morning which drew Rowland's thoughts far from the happenings of the night. A few hours of bright sunshine had brought the passengers on deck like bees from a hive, and the two broad promenades resembled in color and life the streets of a city. The watch was busy at the inevitable scrubbing, and Rowland, with a swab and bucket was cleaning the white paint on the starboard taffrail, screened from view by the after deck house, which shut of a narrow space at the stern. A lit tie girl ran into the inclOsure, laugh ing and screaming, and clung to his legs while she jumped up and down in an overflow ofspirits.

by bright star specked sky, was so chilly that the last talkative passenger had fled to the light and life within.
 When three bells-9:30-had sounded and Rowland had given in his turn the required call, "An's well!' the first of ficer left his post and approached him.
 Rowland" he said as he drew near, "I lear you've walked the quarter dekk."
 q cannot imagine how you learned it, sir," replied Rowland. ''I am not in the habit of referring to it."
 ''You told the captsin. I suppose the curriculum is as complete at Annapolis as at the Royal Naval college. What do you think of Maury's theories of currents?"
 'They seem plausible" said Row land. unconsciously dropping the "sir." 'skut I think that in most particulars he has been proved wrong"
 "Yes, I think so myself. Did you ever follow up another idea of his that of locating the position of ice in fog by the rate of decrease in tenn perature as apprOacneQ:

 The officer stood moment Cooking ahead and humming tune to himself then, saying, "Yes; that's so," returned to his place.

 Rowland glanced after the retreating officer with a cynical smile. 'T won der," he said to himself, "why he comes down here talking navigation to fore mast hand. Why am I up here-out of my turn? Is this something in line short pacing back and forth on the end of the bridge, and the rather gloomy train of thought which the officer had interrupted.
 "How long," he unused, would bis ambition and love of profession last him after he had met and won and lost the only woman on earth to him Why is it that failure to hold the af- fections of one among the millions of women who live and love can outweigh every blessing in life and turn a mans 1 nature into a hell to consume him Who did she marry? Some one. prob ably a stranger, long after my banish- ment, who came to her possessed of a few qualities of mind or physique that pleased her, who did not need to love her-his chances were better without that-and he steps coolly and easily into my heaven. And they tell us that God doeth all things we'll and that there is a heaven where all our unsatisfied wants are attended to-pro- vided we have the necessary faith In I it.

"Shall I drop you over to the fishes, baby?" kc asked, while his features softened to an unwonted smile. The child. gave a little scream of fright, and at that instant a young woman ap- peared around the corner. She sprang toward Rowland like tigress, snatch ed the child, stared~at him fer a mo- ment with dilate eyes and then dis appeared. leaving him limp and nerve less, breathing hard.
 "Tt is her child," he groaned. ''That was the mother look. She is married, married" He resumed his work with a face as near the color of the paint he was scrubbing as the tanned skin of sailor may become.
 Ten minutes later the captain in his office was listening to a complaint from very excited man and woman.
