In the recent campaign for the nomination for vorious county of fices. The Courier has done its best to prevent any interchange of bitterness and personalities. In this course we have reoeived the commendation of many .whose good opinion we prize Jhighly. We have tried to pursue the even tenor of our way and we are beyond the reach of any bitterness which any one may have directed toward us You saw the people rule on last Saturday. Attend the Convention on September 8th, and you will see the bosses perform. The unit rule prevails in the Republican party. A minority has no show in its coun cils or conventions. The death of Capt. E. B. C. Hambley, of Salisbury, removes from the State one of the foremost men in its .industrial development. He was the power behind the great deTelopmeat at WLitney on the Yadkin above the Narrows. He induced wealtkj men of Pittsburg to invest their money in this great enterprise. The large vote in the primary iu Randolph this year, uo doubt, is a forecast of what will follow in No vember. The motto of the Courier hae always beeu "Principles; not men." Every caudidate nominated stands on the democratic platform and is pledged to stand bvdemo cratic principles. Every voter who par ticipated in the primary then and there by his act pledged himself to support the ticket nominated. The democracy of the county is awake and alive and active and will give a great majority iu November. Many say it will be a thousand or more. One thing is certain, say the most conservative democrats, the entire democratic ticket will he elected by a handsome majority. The majori ty will be even larger than two years ago, is thecstimatcjt.f most conserva tive democrats in very p i: ! of t tie county.

These resolutions are strong audi we are glad they -vcre passed. It is j a healthy igu and they should bo j and must be lived up to, to the "let-! tr and the spirit." j The people by their ballots, the expression of a free man's consci ence, said ii. the primaries who they wanted for "the nominees of the Democratic party for the various offices. (i. S. Bradshaw's name still re-j mains at the head as editor of the j Tur Heel, yet to one who reads! that paper even casually it is appar-1 ent that Mr. Rradshaw has not j written a line several moons. in the paper for The latest political news from Rowan is that a full county and legislative ticket will be put out this year in no hope of electing any one but in the hope of weakening Mr. Hackett and Solicitor Hammer. In this campaign as well as in all other campaigns we do not want to stoop to bitterness or abuse; we are ready, however, to turn cur guns on the enemy. Some people like to exploit them selves to the end of their rope and to the limit of their talent; it some times turns out that it is not far to either. We have no wish to injuie any one. We desire the help all who believe in the upbuilding of the oountry and the education and ele vation of the people. We are not among those who are of the opinioo that a newspaper is the avenue in which to exploit ill feeling. Iu the recent primaries great crowds attended the meetings in every precinct in the county, and th nominations for every county oflice was practically settled there. The convention ratified the will of the people as expressed at the primaries. There were uo orders from higher up given, or,' if given, were uot heeded. No slate was carried out. There is ireiieral satisfaction at the action the primal ies and the couventio" The ticket may not suit every .-. but it is the ticket seieected by people auu is composed of good n and irood Democrats. The people have a wonderful: power in the primary. They can, and do smash Slates heii they want to do so. "The Democratic party if a law unto itself," said the Lot:i;ii:Ki several months ago in an editorial in which it was said that neither b"ss nor bessu could control it: that the people I'nlied ill its deliberations an J that no i.h or Set of men could eon tn; ; inle it.

He I1113 written at length in a poor grade of English a communication charging up the Anson and Rowan kuchings to the Democratic administration ot atTa'rs. The article has been published in the circuit of papers (in those hav ing type enough to set it) and more or less comment has been made on it. In passing we might as well keep matters straight by saying that no one distinguished or otherwise, asked the solicitor not to require him to tesSitfy iu the recent lynching inves tigations at Salisbury. There is no more truth in this than that Senator Overman introduced Hall to make a speech. It is true that seventeen of the twentv-one precincts in this county gave democratic majorities two years ago, yet those democratic candidates who sit around and do nothing need not expect to see the salvation of the Lord. It is said that Butler has given an order that ' there is to be no joint canvass this year in Guilford, says the Record; a still hunt is to be the programme there and everywhere. .
