, BR. C00LEY FALLS INTO TEMPTATION.
* All good men will sincerely regret
that Mr. R. A. P. Cooley, of Nashville,
has in a moment of weaknessl
fallen into temptation. He has
many friends in this county and toi
a man they mourn hie fall. It la <
simply a case of a good man gone [
wrong. A good friend ot Mr. Cool- I
ey a man who has always supported |
binj, was asked what he thought of !
Mr. Cooley's action in running for j
Congress against the very Democrat j
whose nomination he had called for j
l>v a rising vote, said:, "I feel just
like I would if I had read that in a
tit of despondency Mr. Cooley had 1
attempted to take his own life." We
think this is the way his friends all
feel. His real friends mourn over
him. His enemies rejoice that lie
has plated himself in such an impos- |
sible position. We are profoundly j
convince J that ;t lie Cooler we all ,
know did not write a line of his caul. I
An evil spirit took possession ot
him. Let alt good men pray that;
like tl\e ~ young man of old who I
wandered away and found himself!
among swine, Mr. Cooler may "come \
to himself" and return to the house j
of his fathers.
Let everybody get the habit, |
"Hospital-tor Louisburg."
The churches, secret orders and
town ant county commissioners
should all take tu active part in the
"hospital for Louisburg."
Ik you have any public spirit
about you at atl; let it show itself in
connection with the "hospital for
Louisburg." ' . '
We lo not like to hear profanity
but would like 'o bear Mr. Cannon
express himself on the treatment he !,
is receiving at the'hands of his own I
- -i ? a '(
party.
i
A Good many 'standpat congress- '
men are dropping out Of the tight
.'for a reuomination, which shows 1
that that the trend is strongly to- 1
war ls Democracy.
y ,1
Whe.x ? man runs for office and ''
is defeated and he tarns "Indepena-!1
eut" it looks as if he is not satisfied J
with the public telling him they do!1
not want him, only orce.
The Important question that mustj;
soon be decided by the Republicans ,
is whether the Insurgent lamh will I
lie down with the stand-pat lion, or 1
whether the iaiub will be iuaide the |
lion.
The price of crude rubber has de-!
clined 50 per cent, but the price ot j
automobile tiret^has been advanced |
25 per cent bv the Rubber Trust, j
How does Senator Aldrich explain I
'that? "
"Susxv Jut" and the President
x Rfinrpd tirat. blnml in t!i?ir tiohf with
the-Colonel,_?liieh shows that the
*?: administration'is hanging together.
The Colonel will have to take his
innings later?perhaps.
SesatoU Mmoot at the raeeting"oF
Governors at Salt Lake said "he did
? Dot believe that Eastern interests
were trying to control the weBt"
Then why does Senator Smoot always
vote with Senator Aldricb.
Cax the republicans afford not to
' . * renominate President Taft. To do
otherwlae would be to acknowledge
~ l that his administration and policies
have been a failure. That woald lie
_ ?? equal to defeat in advance, even
with the Colonel as a candidate. t/..
Tnl'Shelby Aurora, a strong re~
publkfn paper; in speakinv of tbe
locaP wf government plank in
the republican platform uses the
; following words: "Prohibition has
just as many trne friandt in the republican
party aa id^Rie democratic

I " "
iTUXz , , \
Nick "Eosowobth is backing up
father-in-law as well as he can by
going back on Untie Joe, but Ihe
Colonel should see that Nick renounces
Cannonism. i Uncle Joe
1
may soon enter on the Aatral plane,
hut aH the awful isms which he
stands for must be discarded if the
people are to gain.
The republicans ot this county
were unable to "seduce" a single
Democrat to run on their ticket.
The Democrats of Franklin county
are not for sale, Mr. Butler. Keep
[your filthy bond money for the purchase
of cattle Who are for sale.
Franklin County has no such cattle.
la "Local self-government means
"bug juiee" in "wet" territory, and
the eleotion of County Superintendents
of public instruction in dry
territory, would it not be well to I
have a joint discussion between i
Hicks and Tom Settle to settle th> j
question for the republicans?
The nomination of T. T. Ilicks ast
the head of the republican ticket is u j
very "Dry" interpretation of the'
"self government" plank in the
platform typewritten by Butler and
swallowed by the fellows at Greensboro,
whose transportation and grub
wa's paid f ir out of the "margin" I
put up bytlie bond syndicate.
HMMMnaanra
\Vuex it comes jto the control of'
committees the "Old Guard" is on ,
to the game, but how will U fare at
the election? Does any one believe i
that Jim Sherman, although he isj
Vice-President, could beat Roosevelt
fyr any position in the Kepub-!
lican rauks in New York or elsewhere?

kets,. anil several other things thai
savor ot a revolt in the democratic
ranks. And strange to say. t ie inde
pendent spirit that is breaking loosi
in Wake just now ie being felt in i
| lot of other seotiona and oouuties it
the State, and we see men coming oul
and announcing themselves for Congress
who had helped nominate th<
regular democratic, nominee. Whai
can be the meanjng of such thingi
when the republicans are on the agree
sive and threatening- to carry other
districts in the State? Can it be thai
the deiuoorates are diasatitied in the
party, or is it the management of the
party by the hoses?
We cannon understand how a man
can so lose sight of his hor.or and his
sacred obligations as to go into a
primary and then bolt and refuse to
stand bv the nominees. A man who
will do this is not tit to hold a democratic
office, and if be is going to run,
he should run ss a straight republican
and get under the right colors. We
have never believed that a true dein

primary and that is ottr bpinioh now.
If our friends had won ill tlie fight
in this county, we would have expeeled
tile minority or the other side
to have supported our ticket, and
now it is hut just, ami ~to-- say the
least of jtvptily democratic, that the'
defeated side help roil up a big democratic
majority.
We have no faith with this Ihdependontism
and we wish it understood
that this paper will pour ice
water on the heads of every one who
comes out under such a name to heat
the regular democratic ticket. You
may not like some of the nomineea
personally, but they are the nominees
of the majority and they are
the demoratio nominees and it is
your duty as democrats to support
them. Any other course is not democratic.
Independentism spells ruin.
?Kaleigh Evening Times.
We thoroughly agree with you in
the above and to ps it looks Hhat
a man who is not willing to give
way to the majority is really not a
democrat ant way.

the Insurgents are constantly <ie |
elating that th?v believe in the poli

Democratic. ISeal tariff reform and I
protection do not go hand in hand.i
These insurgents are also making1

In the strong Republican States l
ih-rads, ot Course, a strong incen- j
live for Democrats to join with the
Insurgents to beat the regular Re-!
publicans, who foil ows the fortunes |
of Cannon and Aldrich. But if the 1
Republican factions are about equal- i
ly divided there must be a first rate I
chance to elect an honest and cap- !

For want of a better name to call I
the spirit that is over this country and
several other counties in this State I
just now, we are going to say a few I
wprds on the above subject and incidentally
express our opinion of a certain
kind of democracy. When the
fight was on between the factions in j
this countv before th* rl dmnpfnti/i I
primary The Evening Times said j
what it thought and said it very |
plainly. We fought hard for the men'
whom we honestly believed should
be nominated and the only regret
along that line is that we did not fight
just a bit harder,'bat be thlt as it may,
we, or rather our friends, got the
worst of the fight and were beaten.
We took off our hats to the men who j
beat as and said that we would sup-1
port them like true democrats, and
that is just what we are going to do
and according- to oar oodeof democratic
doctrine that is what every
honest democrat should do who went
into tbst primary. Bat unfortunately,
that is not the case, as it aeems from
ferine rumors that are coming from
many sections of the oonnty. There
is talk of C'l't n? iicV-i-, i -le
