1 i IS 4 11 n- 1 ) The Asneboro Courier PRICE ONE DOLLAR A YEAR Wm. C. HAMMER, Editor. Entered at t'le Post Oifice at Alirboro as Second (.'lass Matter TOM WATSON ON MARION BUTLER. In the course of an editorial in a recent issue of Jefferson Magazine, Thomas E. Watson delivers himself of stroug language with reference to Marion Butler. As Mr. Butler is now very much iu the lime light, we quote what Mr. Watson says: "Marion Butler, when a Pop ulist, uiad a deal with Repub licans in State politics, in North Carolina. Ready at all times to sell himself and betray any friend, he nevertheless did bus iness upon the idea of selling to the Democrats iu national affairs and to the Rpeublicans in local affairs. He played the game so well that he rose from the hon orable poverty of a country ed itor into the tainted wealth of a national political prostitute his riches being augmented oc casionally by impartially swind ling tne government and the In dians in lobbying mysterious clauses into appropriation bills. 'There isn't a Populist in the South who does not loathe the name of Marion Butler.'' A REPUBLICAN'S ESTIMATE OF EDITOR DANIELS. State Senator Guy Carter of Surry county, a real bright and in teresting writer takes a more charita ble view than mosc Republican leaders in writing of political events in this str.te. Mr. Carter in a recent article declares there are factious in the democratic party in this state. In this he is in a great measure mis taken. We quote his estimation of Senator McLean and Editor Jose phns Daniels of the News and Ob server. The leading conservative force in the last legislature was Senator McLean, of Roberson, a man of earnest convictions, un doubted honesty, undisputed integrity, wonderful ability, and the best all-found "scraper" I ever saw. He knew how to fight and delighted in it. He was ably seconded by Buxton; of Forsyth; Mason; of Gaston; Graham, of Orange; Dougton, of Alleghany, as well as a num ber cf others. There can be no doubt of one thing, that the conservative leadership was composed of the ablest and most experienced member of the leg islature, but it was sadly defi cient in votes. But the real leader, he un crowned king, the acknowledged head of that party, was Jose phus Daniels, editor of The News & Observer. He stood not within the shadow nor be hind the throne to do his fight ing, but boldy, and openly pro claimed his position and stood by it. It is not sufficient to say of him, that for ability, and power he was the peer of any, for he was the prince of all, For one I do not entertain the opinion of Mr. Daniels tht many do, especially those who oppose him. He is a rank and bitter partizan, too rank to be just and too bitter to be fair to tboee who see things differently from himself. Yet he is a man of Btrong convictions and fear lessly avows them. Personally he is a genial, clever man aud I am inclined to the opinion that it is his intense partizanship and not any orrupt purpose or impure motive that inspires his methods of warfare. He . has done more for the Democ racy than any other single indiv idual in the state, and doubtless feels that he has a right to be heard in its councils, i Yet he is stronger than any single man that opposes him and I am of the opinion that should it come to showdown he will be stronger than all of them combined. Others may and do represent the wealth aud intel ligence of thejDemocratic party, hut Josephus Daniels is the leader of the ma-ses. Some follow him through fear, others follow him for the hope of reward, but the masses of the - Democratic party believe in the man. He represents the dom inant sentiment of his party in North Carolina today, and is the most powerful factor in it. For my part, I believe that . Daniels is the star ascendant. I believe that, with the power of his paper, with the organization ' at his command, with the friend ships that are known to be his, with the interests which are in common with his interests, aud with his leadership of the rank and tile of his party, he will have an easy triumph at the next Democratic convention there cau be no final, no man who opposes his will and fights his policy will live, poli tically speaking to tell the story of how he fell. Mr. Carter mixes compliments with criticisms and there is not the sting that accompanies the criticisms made bv men of the coarse, brutal Spence Adams type. X I A X I ) I N J ! CA I 1 1 A T I-'.!.

The Seaboard Air Line and the Atlantic Coast Line are to be congrat ulated upon their decision to let the passenger rate of 2 1-4 cents a mile in North Carolina go into effect, at least for a while, under protest, and contest the matter later. Not only can a test be made of the new rate's actual workings but the public will recognize a conoilatory attitude in such action. That the Southern Railway company has not done like wise is matter for regret. We have never questioned that it is within its legal rights in enjoining the new rate on the constitutional ground that is confiscatory, but there is a more important consideration. As the Apostle I'aul tells us would that the Southern Uailwav could be brought lo accept this part of his teaching there are some things which are lawful which are not ex pedient. Charlotte Observer.
