As the leading Democrat tee Sen.

North Carolina, has distinctly

been resourceful, tactful, and sue
cessful. Those statesmen who

tariff legislation. discovered that
Senator Simmons had a few sur
prises in store for them, a n d
there was CONSERVATION in lnany
quarters inside and outside of
Congress, when in his capacity Of
Democratic leader he disclosed
the fact that lie had secured q
working arrangement with the
Republican progressives of the
Senate ON thrse measures.
The regular and progressive
Republicans cooperating h Il d
placed upon the House Bills IL
mendments which would h a v e
made it difficult to bring about
an agreement upon these meas
ures in conference, and the regu.
lars, taking advantage of this
sltuation, had arranged among
themselves to tie them up in con.
ference or toallow them, orsome
OF them. to be. presented to the
President in such shape. as would
insure his veto. Senator Sim
mons, in alliance with the pro-
gressive Republicans, provided
Tor the removal Of these Obstac.
lea 40 that these measures could
|go up to the President in q form
that would make q veto less
probable.
SenatorsSimmous' activity in
bringing about Joint action be.

form bills began in the special
session OF 1911, and his SUCCESS
has renewed and broa]ened the
scope oftheco.oprration between
there reform forces which had

Among the Democratic Sena-

opposition to the Canadian Re-
clprocity agreement, taking the
stand that the provisions OF that
measure were unfair to the far.

Charity and Children,
An audience uf men that filed

ladies, gathered on Tuesday even
ing last to hear Gov. Kitchin
speak.
1t was a cold crowd for cam
paign orator. The usual enthusi.
asm and spirit Of such an occa-
sion was painfully absent. twas
a melancholy meeting. The most
pronounced appla nee was given
when the Governor held up the
lumber journal aud showed the
picture of Senator Simmons on
the cover: and Il Simmons man
started the cheering and the 9th.

The G ,vernor realized at the
outset that he was facing an all.

they We're suffering with cold feet.
The speech was a strong deliv.
erance, and the boldness u n d
courage of the speaker as he hurl.
ed his anathemas at Simmons in
the face Of the friends of the Sen.
ator, was altogether admirable.
With the exception Of the first
ten minutes in which the speaker
euloRized Woodrow Wilson aud
Locke Craig, the whole speech
WAS u bitter and relentless TRADE
against a mau who Tor 27 years
has Leen II recognized leader in
the public life OF North Carolina,
and u fulsone and disgusting
tribute to the fidelity, abilItyand
honesty Of W. W. Kitchin.

of his bIameles1 life, II it ha d
come from another, would hnye
been l'eautifnl; but coming from
the lips OF the man himself it was
slightly out OF taste. One could
be but reminded of the Pharisee
who went up into the temple to
pray AMI who thanked the Lord
that lie was virtuous, honorable.
truthful, sanity and pure and
not like the poor publican hy hi-
side who would not 40 much as
lift his eyes to heaven.
The whole trend OF his spsech
WAS destructive. 1t was an at.
tempt to rise upon the ruin he
had wrought. While there was
nothing in what he said that
could le fairly construed as per
sonal abuse, the elimination and
conclusion 0f it all in the mind O
the nearer who did not stop to

/ The speech was not a vote-get'

site. Mr.. Kitchin, we dare say, is
not as strong in Thomasville as
he was before he delivered h s
speech. The policy he is pursuing
can not win out. If Gov. Kitchir
is nominated to the Senate il
will be in spite of the speech he ls
making IN this campaign.
The Governor boasted that hii
white banner had never trailed
in the dust, and al through the
