Fair, Honest Elections.
1t is the. purpose of this administra-
ton to have fair, honest and orderly
conduct of elections, including every
thing to be submitted to the people
for their approval or rejection.
Square Deal to All.
The minority party has named its
representative on every county cleo
ton board, and the minority party has
representatives on every precinct
election board to have his watcher
and to have proper surveillance of the
election officials. This is not object
ed to.
Solved on Merit.
Questions of state should be solved
on their merit and not sought to be
obscured BY impugning wrong to the
other side. The fact is, have found
it almost to be truism that as a
rule, those who are always ascribing
both base and corrupt motives to the
other side, especially without any facts
to sustain same, will bear watching
themselves.
A Business Administration.
We have. sought to give the people
of this state a business government.
No man or woman has been permitted
to take office under this admlnistra-
ton, unless there was reasonable
ground to believe that his or her ser
vices would be at least commensurate
in value with the salary paid. We
have honestly sought to eliminate
waste and to bring about efficiency
and thrift and the faithful enforce
ment Of the law in the administration
Of this state government. We desire
the hearty cooperation of the honest
law-abiding and God-fearing people OF
this commonwealth, and that we earn

Should Remove Menace.

This amendment should be adopted.
These negro counties, where the ne
gro comes so near controlling, should
not be left to become a menace on ac-
count of the race question. Fix it so,
by adopting this amendment, that dur
ing all the years to come, we can elect
our state officers, regardless Of the in
fluence of the negro question. The
best men then control the government,
and the designing men could not use
the race question to ride into office.
"The fair minded men Of this state
have the opportunity to adopt this
amendment and eliminate the negro
from politics; with this done, may the
virtuous, intelligent honest and eff
cient ever win.

Wilson IS reply today to Colonel Roose-
welt s demand for Americanism.
He launched this phrase at the cele-
bration of the one hundred and forty
first anniversary of the signing OF the
Mecllenberg declaration of independ-
ence, before tremendous crowd,
ave re working full time, and the
dinner pail is full, - called the crowd
as Wilson spoke,
Eyes, and those pals will be filled

He urged the confirmation of Trade
Commissioner Rubles, whose nomina-
ton is facing defeat in the senate.
MANY Women attended the meeting,
lcllmoring to see Mrs. Wilson, but she
was not up yet.
At Greensboro the president spoke
again, saying:
ave are at the beginning of a new
age. We must be sure not to give
countenance to men who try to hold
us back. Some who now control the
Republican party have their heads over
their shoulders, looking backward, not
forward They do not know the prob
lens of the new day.
He referred frequently to his nomi-
nation Of Rublee: "When show sym
pathy for the forward looking men of
their party by nominating men of that
sort, they try to block the process. "
What kind of a fire are you 60
ing to keep under the melting pot Of
America, in order to turn out untaint-

''There were only three million people
in the United States when the Meek

are a hundred million now, but the
same elements are present. The Unit

cess of being mad. There are always
