Washington, Aug. 2i. Senator F.
McL. Simmons, of North Carolina, who
is in Washington, says that the Presi
dent's recent disapproval of the atti
tude of the Republicans of the South
in the matter of factional fights and his
edict that the men of his party in that
scltion must strive for genuine success
at the polls is not being generally ap-
"My opinion," said Senator Simmons
to a Sun correspondent today, "is that
M'r. Roosevelt's policy with reference to
reorganizing the party in the South
will be exceedingly unpopular with the
present leaders of the organization
there. Their one idea for years has
been a division of Federal patronage.
And they have desired, and now desire,
that division to be participated in by
as few men as possible. Hence they
have not been as enthusiastic as might
hJWve been expected in the matter of
electing their party candidates to pow
er. 1 he Republican leaders of North
Carolina are now in rebellion against
i CI J Tj -r-v . t i --.
ioeiuuur jeter u. rritcnaru. rney charge
that he puts disaffected and purchas
able Democrats in Federal positions to
which they think they are entitled by
reason of their own services and loy
alty to the party.
REORGANIZATION IS OPPOSED.
"It may be stated in general terms,"
cuiiLinueu ivir. Simmons, that, t hp
leaders of the Republican party in the
South are satisfied with the minority
position which they now occupy, and
do not desire reorganization. The Re
1 , n .a
puuncans 01 out tew counties in our
State have thus far held their conven
3 tions. In one county which
1 J held its convention a few days
ago, nuwever, resolutions were passed
strongly condemning the policy of Sen
ator Pritchard, and it was declared
that no man should be supported for
tiie Legislature who should seek Mr.
Pritchard's re-election. This conven
tion was dominated by the negro ele
ment of the Republican party, and
based its opposition to Mr. Pritchard
on the ground that he had deserted and
Detrayea the negroes. The negroes
think this because he turned down sev
eral negro candidates for postmaster-
ships. There is also strong opposition
to him among the white Republicans of
the eastern part of the State, based
upon the charge that he has tried to
continue President McKinley's Federal
office policy by selecting ex-Democrats
for appointment to postoffices and
other Federal positions." ,
OUTLOOK FOR NEXT FALL.
Mr. Simmons was questioned con
cerning the prospect of a complete
Democratic victory in North Carolina
next fall. He said:
"We carried the State two years ago
by a majority of 50,000. Now the new
Constitution, which imposes qualifi
cations upon sultrage, has just gone
into effect, and will apply in the elec
tion.to come. By the operations of this
Constitution we expect the Republi
cans to lose about 60,000 votes, and if
the full vote of the State is polled next
fall, we will carry it by a very large
majority. I do not expect, however,
that the vote polled this year will be
as large as that of two years ago, but
to my mind thre is absolutely no ques
tion that the. Democrats will carry
the State, and there is no reason to
suppose that our majority in the Le.
islature will be less than it now is.
Two vears aero in the election of the
Legislature we chose about four Demo
crats to one Republican. That also will
be the ratio, I think, for the next Leg
islature.
'There are only three Congressional
districts in the State where the Re
publicans claim they have any show
for victory. They are the Eighth, Ninth
ml ' JS .1 n 1 ! ". ..
ana rentn. mere is nu luuuuauuu iu
their claims in any district except the
Tenth, in which, there is a possibility
of their success.
DEMOCRATS NOT DISAFFECTED.
'I deny the statement that there has
been any material disaffection among
the Democrats of the State, and that
many, since the adoption of the new
Constitution, have joined tne tepuo-
lican ranks. Democrats generally are
as staunch and loyal to the party as
they have ever been. In fact, I believe
Democratic sentiment, in North Caro
lina is stronger than I have known it
to be during any of the four campaigns
in which I have been chairman. The
only independent movement there j
arises irum iutai n uuuio owia
satisfaction with the stock laws and
the prohibition question. Such troubles
have always prevailed there. They arc
greater this year than ever.
"There appeared to be some opposi
tion to the regular Democratic candi
date for Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court. A fight was made in convention
upon his nomination, but out of 1,200
delegates only about 100 voted against
him. There will be no organized oppo
sition to his election on the part of men
claiming to be Democrats. The Demo
cratic opposition is growing less every
day; and his vote will not fall percep
tibly behind that of the regular ticket.
An independent . Democrat has an
nounced his candidacy for the post. He
will command the Republican vote, but
not enough Democratic votes to affect
the result.

What Uncle Sam Has Do ne in That

of good roads in Porto Rico as the
Spaniards constmrtpri rl
Senator Simmons Declares it is Favor- four centuries of their occupancy. This
statement is made by William H. El
liott, commissioner of the interior in
Porto Rico, who is now in this coun
try, and it shows what American rule
had done for that island, to promote
its interests and add to its prosperity.
When the Americans gained pos
session of Porto Rico there was al
most no good means of transportation
with the exception of the military
road from San Juan across to Ponce,
called the "central road," and a few
stretches of good road running out
from some of the towns. The total
length of the good road was not
much in excess of 100 miles, and the
only means of interior transportation
was by horseback and pack animals.
With $1,500,000 of the $2,500,000
from refunded duties which congress
appropriated to the improvement of
Porto Rico, the Americans entered
upon a road building campaign, and
today 1G0 miles of first-class macadam
road is either completed or under con
struction connecting the most im
portant towns. Porto Rico has an
abundance of good ston,3 for road
building purposes and the new roads
are of the same class as are being
constructed in the States.
In addition to the roads bnilt by the
insular government, a lav was passed
at the last session of the assembly
setting aside 25 per cent, of the tax
levy of municipalities to be used un
der the direction of a supervisor who,
in turn, is responsible to the interior
department, in constructing roads
from towns to the main trunk roads.
It is hoped that later a poll tax levy
may be made for the same purpose.
The people enter heartily into this
plan. They take kindly to the road
building idea and see in their greatly
increased prosperity tangible results
therefrom. Wages are increased,
freight charges are reduced, trans
portation and communication and
generally facilitated, and a revolution
has taken place in the styles of ve
hicles used. Under the Spaniards the
price of labor was IS cents a day.
gold; now the government pays 50
cents a day, gold, and private con
cerns are paying as nign as a nay.
It used to cost SO cents per 100 to
transport coffee by bull cart from
Utrado to the coast, and now the
charge is 10 cents a hundred-weight.
From Arccibo to a shipping point the
charge for carrying sugar was 15 cents
a hundred, and now it ranges from 3
to 5 ce"nts for the same weight. The

going affair, is rapidly disappearing,
and its place is being taken by
wagons and mules, and automobiles
are Doing mtroauceu.
This is one result of the American
occupation of Porto Rico, and it is a
result which works almost as much
for higher civilization as schools and
colleges. Similar results will in time
be seen in Cuba and the Philippines.
