REBELLING AGAINST THE BOS
ORGAN.

Democrats Have Been Dictated to,
Tied, Gagged and Delivered by One
Man.
New Bern Journal.
The arbitrary stand OF the State
organ, the News and Observer, has
aroused Democrats to the situation
that they were not to be even con-
suited, much less be given voice in
naming a candidate. This same po-
litical prescription has been carried
on before, but the Democratic voters
have had no special choice of candi-
date, so have let the News and OBJ
server name the man without opposl-
ton.
This year the scene has changed
from it's old time political placidity.
The organs dictation in being the
sole one to name North Carolina's S
Presidential choice, is strongly re-
sented and thousands of Democrats
demand in the name of Democracy
that that they be not smothered. tied,
gagged and delivered, but that instead
they be heard, and that equity pre-
vail. 1t is this demand for party priv
ileges for every Democrat in the mat
ter of naming a Presidential nomi-
nee, that is the most important and
vital issue before the Democratic
Convention at Raleigh. Is one man
to continue to name the nominees,
presidential, gubernatoriaI, senator
ial, / North Carolina?

THE SCHEME OF SELF-SEEKING
MEN.
The Honest Roosevelt Delegates Fool
ed by a Dishonest Patronage Ma
chine Combination.


Lincoln Times1
The Duncan-Taft delegates who
were seated at the State Convention
instead of the regular Roosevelt dele
gates, have held rump conventions in
the Third and Fourth Districts and
elected uninstructed delegates to Chi
cago to contest the regularly elected
Roosevelt delegates. And it was the
Roosevelt State leaders" who
treught about the seating of these
Duncan-Taft delegates.
The only Taft delegates from
North Carolina are Wheeler Martin.
from Duncan's and Ike Meekins' dis
trict. And yet the so-called leaders
of the Roosevelt forces combined
with Meekins and Duncan in the
State Convention and unseated a
number of Roosevelt delegates with
no other purpose in view than to
capture the State organization re-
gardless of the interest of Col. Roose-
velt The real Roosevelt folks were
fooled into a support of this combi-
nation. We had done our best to
warn them beforehand that such a
scheme was on foot. They can now
repent their mistake at leisure.
Be it said to his credit, Hon. z. V.
Walser had no part in the betrayal of
Roosevelt at the State Convention in
the unholy attempt to lift few self
seeking politicians into power under
cover of Roosevelt's popularity. 1t
was a clever scheme and came near
maturing before the honest Roose-
velt supporters became aware of their
folly.

Col. Roosevelt and the Tariff.
Union Republican,

Union Republican,
Much has been said regarding the
silence of Colonel Roosevelt on the
tariff question. Possibly no one took
the trouble to ask him, or most as
suredly an answer would have been
given. However, Col Roosevelt has
saved those anxious about his tariff
views any further worry. In his
speech at Patterson, New Jersey, a
few days ago. he said:
Il believe in a protective tariff but
wish to see the benefit get into the
pay envelope of the working man as
well as appeal in the dividends For
this reason / advocate creating a ma
tional bureau to investigate the prob
lens of industry and see that the
problem does really benefit the work
ing man"

are so many prisoners in the State
penitentiary suffering from impaired

diet, steady work and general good

Kitchin would take enough time from

What Roosevelt Says.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, June 4.-"Pure
political brigandge," said Colonel
Roosevelt tonight of the capture OF
Ohio's six delegates-at-large to the
Republican National Convention by
supporters of President Taft.
Colonel Roosevelt said:
THE plain people of the Republican
party of Ohio have just held State
wide primary in which they repudiat-
ed Mr.. Taft by over 10000 majority
The politicians, by adroit manipula-
ton, have succeeded in giving Mr..
Taft the six delegates-at-large, in
frank and cynical defiance of the en-
phatic action of the people them
selves. This Is Of course pure polit-
ical brigandage.
This action in Ohio is merely a
fresh and conclusive proof that Mr..
Taft and his advisers care nothing for
the will of the people and are eager
to get the nomination without any
reference to the methods by which
it is secured without any reference to
whether or not delegates represent
the people whom they are supposed
to represent. 1t is a crowning illus
tration of Mr. Taft's theory of gov
ernment of the people by a represen-
tative part of the people"
Colonel Roosevelt replied to to-
days statement of William Barnes,
Jr,, whom he attacked as a disciple of
bossism and commanded the atten-
tion OF his opponents including Mr..
Taft to the report of the legislative
committee which last spring investi-
gated conditions in Albany, "as to
the workings OF Mr.. Barnes theory
of government in his own city"
Colonel Roosevelt has not made up
his mind whether he will go to the
Chicago convention and he is making
preparations to bring the seat of war
as close as possible if he chooses to re-
main at Sycamore Hill. Workmen
began today the erection of telegraph
wires to the Colonel's home With
the aid of saunders, and a corps of
telegraphers manning direct wires
from Sycamore Hill to the Roosevelt
headquarters in Chicago, Colonel
Roosevelt will be able to follow the

Sioux Falls, S. D.. June Al
though returns had been received
from only 130 out of about 1900
precincts late tonight, they pointed to
a victory for Theodore Roosevelt m
the South Dakota primaries held to-
day. Newspapers computing the final
result on the basis of these returns
figure the plurality at from 5000 to
10000.
On the Democratic ticket Governor
Wilson appeared to have a small
lead, but the returns were too few to
indicate a decisive result. Two Clark
tickets were in the field and this ap-
parently worked to the advantage OF
the New Jersey Governor For
United States Senator. Thomas Sterl-
ing, Republican, was leading Senator
Gamble on the returns available and
Edward S. Johnson, Democrat, had a
good lead over P. F. Wickham.
Frank M. Bryan, of Faulkton, the Re-
publican candidate for governor, was
we'll in the lead over his opponent,
George w. Aagan, of Sioux Falls.
The ten delegates to the National
Convention were agreed on at State
Convention and the four which are
considered delegates-at-large were
chosen by agreement from different
parts of the State. The indications
are that Col. Roosevelt will have a
solid delegation from this State to
the Chicago Convention.
Wilson's manager claim victory
which is not conceded by the Clark
men.

POLITICS al WilIow Branch.

Editor Chieftain. Dear Sir: On the
18th evening, the voters of this yicin-
ity we're treated with set of speeches
by the republican candidates for the
offices of sheriff, treasurer. judge, rep
resentative, yes. and constable, led on
and highly recommended by U. S. Com
missioner Brown of Vinita Mr.. Brown
in opening his address emphatically
impressed on the minds of the audi
ence that he was bitterly opposed to
the attacking of any mans personal
character in political arguments and
il he had to show up deficiencies he
alleged it more to the party than to
the individual. Now in my humble
opinion Mr.. Brown In that respect IS
away ahead of the national leaders OF
both wings of his party. while there
were a great many misleading insinu-
ations in the various speeches made,
they were in the main clean. High
taxes aed unnecessary deputy officers
being mostly their subject matter. As
usual they made a strong plea for in
dependent democrats to vote for the
man regardless OF party and 1t would
have been easy for man, however
strange to our system to detect that
they were very hopeless minority
from their own speeches.
Monday night the rooster was crow
sing in the Willow Branch school house.
The following speakers coming close
on the heels of the republicans seemed
to wipe out all the arguments of Mr.
Brown and Newman and Butler as eff
fectiye as IL they had been chalk fig
ures on the black board. Hon. Pete
Coyne, Mr.. Hobby Mr.. kinnison and
Mr.. Smart seemed to be in good trim
to answer any and all of the argu-
ments put to them by the insinuations
Of the republicans. Their arguments
showed confidence, that they were able
and willing at all times to meet and
discuss and to uphold the work of the
democratic party in Oklahoma against
all republicans. They claim that no
state has been hampered by federal
law suits in its infancy as ours and
the constitution that Teddy reviled
and Taft came here to kill has be-
come the patron from which other
older states are remodeling and amend
inf theirs. In all, these men left a
good impression here.
