AsHEvILLE. N C., Aug 17.-Colonel Roosevelt

Wilson the party of this state and
of the whole south united determined and enthu-
siastic. Factions have disappeared is no dis

not known since 1892. Some who have heretofore
voted the Republican ticket will support him.
1t is freely admitted by intelligent Of all
parties that Democratic majority in North Caro-
lima this year win reach hgh-water mark There IS
pretense of any claim to the contrary. Demo-
cratic conditions and prospects could better

be worse.
The Republican party or what was once the Re
publican party, is hopelessy divided President Taft
has following, but the great majority of the old
between these two factions is fierce and relentless
Each will cerainly put electoral ticket They
will fight each other the finish
The claim by Colonel Roosevelts managers that
he will get support from the Democrats of the south
is ridiculous. No such claim is made by any IL
his supporters in this section. The nomination of
Governor Wilson eliminated him. In the present
situation there is place for him, certainly
not in the south.
Governor Wilson. with the platform Of the Balti-
convention is the logical representative and
ponent OF the real, earnest progressive thought of
the age.
The nominee of the Democratic party meets the
demand that we genuine reform without
revolution We believe that he is safe, wise and
courageous; that he will without fear favor per-
form his trust We know that he is under obligation
to no particular interest and to faction. and
have the faith that him the ideals Of Democracy
should the real controlling force of this govern
ment He will certainly carry North Carolina by a
very large majority and I believe that he will be
elected by the greatest majority that any president
has received since 1872. LOCKE CRAIG.

Taft and the Republican standpatters. adopts the
foolish scheme of making the tariff duties equal the
difference between American and foreign cost Of
production. This was one of the avowed principles
in his Confession of Faith" at Chicago 1t is OBJ
vious in the very outset that such difference can
not be determined. 1t varies between factory. and
factory and in the same factory from month to
month. Under such device, the benehciares of the
tariff would be melted to costly rather than economic
methods of production. They would demand, and
would get, protective duties to all possible diff
ferences in cost so in the end the people would
be better of than they are today. The truth is
Mr.. Roosevelts policies in this particular, which
precisely those of the regular Republicans,
too absurd be considered and put forward
merely to deceive the voters and to divert their at
tentiOn from the real evil to be dealt with
Such the past record and the present attitude
of the third-term candidate toward the great
issue of the day, issue in which the South is es
pecially concerned. With what grace or logic, then
can he appeal for support in this section? Even if
he did not champion the Capitalization of power in
the federal government the expense Of the rights
of the States. even if he not seeking to over
ride the thirdterm precedent and establish himself
virtually as a dictator even IL he had not insulted
Southern sentiment on the negro question-he would
still be barred from any political consideration on
the part of people by his anti-Southern and re-
dictionary stand the great question of tariff re-
form. No matter what else Mr. Roosevelt might
might not represent he is not eligible to the suf
frage of this section so long he stands for
tnuance of the abuses and injusces of the present
tariff system.
1t is to the Democratic party and the Democratic
party alone that may look for relief from this
one underlying source of public Ills. The South
stands today where it always stood this cardinal
principle of good government and in the present cam
paign its Democratic loyalty sweeps forth with
usual vigor to Woodrow Wilson who declares:
ut is Obvious that the tariff changes make
should be made only at such rate and in such
t0ay soiH least Interfere i0ith the normal
and heaIthful of commerce and nGnufac-
ture. But zoe shan not on that account act t0ith

THE RAILROAD COMMISSIONS
PLAIN DUTY TO THE PEOPLE

The travelling public and the business interests
of Georgia look to the State Railroad Commission
for relief from that unjust mileage rule which
the railroads with the aid Of Governor Brown have
fastened upon them. AS a body established to see
that the people given fair deal at the hands Of
public service corporations, the Commissions duty
is clear: It should repudiate the arbitrary action
of the Governor in vetoing the mileage bill. which
the Legislature had overwhelmingly passed, and
grant this demand to which the patrons of the roads
are legally and Justly entitled.
Within the past few months the Commission has
had unusual opportunities for studying the merits of
this cause 1t has been directly pettioned by great
body of commercial travellers to annul the foolish
rule under which the roads now require an exchange
Of mileage for special trip tickets before it be
used. There was submitted an abundance of testi-
mony showing how this exaction entails loss of
time and frequently loss Of money upon the travel
ing men and the important interests they represent
1t was shown, furthermore that the great railway
systems of the east voluntarily accept mileage aboard
trains and find it thoroughly in accord with their
interests to do so.
While this matter was pending before the Com
mission bill, seeking the same end the petition
was introduced in the General Assembly; whereupon
the Commission naturally suspended its pro-
cedure. After thorough consideration and with the
advice of able lawyers in both houses the Legisla
ture passed the mileage bill. That measure would
be law today, had it been the arbitrary and
indefensible action of Governor Brown. Regardless
Of the wishes and the rights of the public regardless
Of the carefully considered stand Of the peoples rep
resentatives, he vetoed the bill and offered as his
sole excuse, an empty bubble
In so doing, he not only denied the public COM
mon right but he also denied the courts an oppor-
tunity to pass upon the law. He assumed the pow
ers Of the judiciary well the executive. If the
bill had been unconstitutional, that would have been
for the courts to have said. The truth is Governor
Broom and the railroads both afraid to let the
Iaio reach the courts because they Eneo zen enough
it DouId be sustained.
In these circumstances, the petition to abolish the
tyrannca mileage rule is again before the Railroad
Commission. The course for that body to pursue
we repeat is Enthusiastically defined. In favor Of
abolishing this rule it has heard directly from the
merchants the shippers the manufacturers the COM
mercial travellers and the travelling public at large
while to the contrary, it has heard but two
voices, that of Governor Brown and that of the
railroads.
Let the Commission choose without hesitancy be-
tween the Governors bubble and the peoples rights
between the selfish and unreasonable plea of the
railroads and the common interests of the State.
