The Asheboro Cornier PRICE ONE DOLLAR A YEAR Wm. C. HAMMER. Editor. THURSDAY. April 5, 1906. The Courier stands for no cli que or ring, has no slate and has no favorite for any place or position, bows to no will or boss, but the will of the sovereign people. There is no man nr set of men big enough or strong enough in the democratic party in the county, and never has been whojcan or will be able to con trol or dictate the plana, policies or name the policies or name the ticket in the approaching, or in any other campaign. The Col kiek does not now desire, nor has itever attempted or labored in the interest of any one for any position on the county or legislative ticket. This in accord ance with ideas long held and ad vocated by the editor and manage' ment of the paper a policy car rieu to tne extent tnat never lias a line or word or syllable been pub lished in th paper for nearly fifteen years since the present editor shaped and controlled the policy of the paper, in behalf or in advocacy of the political promotion or advance uietit of any one connected with the paper, either before or after a con vention. We have in the past per mitted the publication of communi cations in behalf of nominees before the conventions and in some in stances these articles were not sign ed. We have after careful considera tion armed at the opinion that in the future that all communica tions advocating any one for nomination must be sigued when published in this paper. We must therefore refuse to publish the anonymous correspondence received this week advocating a certain ticket or slate to 311 the various county offices this full. To one and idl we, say, if you desire your articles r.'commending any one for tbp nomi nation by the convention published, j sign vour name, before requesting publication. The populist party is dead and Marion Butler did more to kill it than anybody. Stranded high and dry, ambitious, politically and with no hope of a welcome in the demo cratic party, this man, despised and nateii bv the people of his cative state, has taken up his a'aode in Washington aud is doing everything possible to keep himself in the lime light. He recently organized an has been elected president of th North Carolina republican party ii Washington. He has at last come out in the open where has belonged for a good while. He, no doubt, dreams of future conquest and ex pects to become the leader of that partv in this state. We do not be lieve that a man so thoroughly re pudiated and abandoned as is Marion Butler by the people of North Caro lina will ever again become the leader of any party in this state. The old line republicans have some mighty sorry men as leaders, but it is not believed that they will ever tolerate his leadership and control of patronage. The people of this county are a plain, conservative folk, who, as a rule, believe in paying as they go or not go, but the time has come when it is necessary for the county to have a new modern court house and an up-to-date, safe jail. The county commissioners, we learn, decided at the January meeting of the board to build a new court house and jail, And pledge the faith and credit of the county in payment therefor, but there is one trouble and that is that three months' notice mast be given on the first Monday in December in the year before the erection of a court house is begun, if it is desired to remove it to a new site. In other words the court house cannot be moved from its present site without notice as aforesaid. It matters not whether the new court house is built up or down street, there is one thing all are agreeed on it should not be on the present site. Another important matter is that while the commissioners can . pledge crcil.'i of the county and incur j the indebtedness for the building of court houses and jails, it is, never theleBS, true, that there must be an a"t, of the legislature at least, au tuorizing the levying of taxes for the payment of the principal and interest on said bonds. The present board of commissioners have, as we learn, fully decided to build a court house and jail at the earliest possible time that they can under the law, and we hope that their successors in office will carry out the resolution and determination of the present board. During the last tew weeks many visitors have seen our new press and folder at work. Many are astonish ed at the 'size of our plant. The steady growth in circulation made a new and fast press and a modern folder with trimmer and paster at tachments necessary. These ma' chines are the best of their class made. Other improvements in the form of type and other equipments have been added. Other impiove ments will be added when it becomes necessary. In the job department there is greater improvnicnt. The mechanical department of the news paper out fit is fiirst class and jthe job department is still better. The County Republican Execu tive committee was called to meet in Asheboro on list Saturday March 31, but there was not a full attend ance, alleged to be due in part to the muddy roads. Those present were in session less than an hour. Ex- Sheriff Hendricks it is saii intended to resign the chairmanship, but did not do so. His resignation it is ex pected will be accepted and his sue enssor elected at a meeting to be called at a future date when it is expected that there will be a larger attendance. The matter of building a new court house was never considered until the democrats come into oflice, for during republican and fusion rule there was never a day that county orders were worth par in cash. You could get one huudred cents in trade but only ninety cents in cash then. No wonder we could not have a court house. It is to be hoped that the new school book committee to select books to be used in the public schools, will succeed in getting greatly reduced prices on the books to be used in the publi2 schools for the U.S. which prices now are enor mouslv high. The election of Gen. Julian S. Cm r as president at the conclusion of the recent reunion of the Blue and Gray in Atlanta was a fitting tribute to a princely gentleman, who is devoted to the memory of the Lost cause. Randolph county, under normal conditions is, we think, democratic, but with strife, dickerings, conten tions, prejudices and jealousies in the household, the result migLt be different. vv m j iM-yan in an article in the April Century Magazine dis cusses socialism and presents the strongest possible arguments against socialism as against indi vidualism. Guilford county is moving for good roads in the deadest earnest. Forty convicts and three hundred and sixty free laborers are employed ia building good roads in three dif ferent sections of the county.
