W. K1TCHIN FOR UNITED
STATES SENATE.
Major Yancey, One of Persons Oldest
and Most Prominent Citizens wHtes
About Him.
Editors Courier:
Seldom have. I ever had "'any
thing to say, through the news
papers, but at this time when the
democrats of the State are to cast
their vote to choose, a U. S.
Senator and our beloved and
honored countvman Hon. W, W.
Kiichin is in the contest, and
from all indications will win, I
want to see every democratic vo
ter in Person County stand
squarely by him on election day.
It has been said that some in
fluences have been at work for
his opponents in the race and that
they will get some few votes in
Person. With a clean record
both in public and private life
which every citizer of the Coun
ty knows hs has, and with his
great record as a genuine and
straight Democrat standing
squarely on veryv democratic plat
form and fighting fearlessly and
honestly for democracy since he
was a mere boy, I cannot see
why any democrat in Person
County can fail to to support
him, or vote against him.
He has always been a plain
man whose heart is in sympathy
with the masses of the peopte
and their best interests, and men
who believe in democratic prin
ciples cannot say that Kitchin ever
cast a vote against their interest
Fellow democrats, let's go to
the polls and give our countyman
a s6lid vote. Person County
would be honored by having a
United States Senator and it is an
honor that any County in the
State would be very proud of.
J, T. Yancey.
Mr. Bradsher Will Move to Oxford.
We learn that Mr. J. S. Brad-
sher, one oF our most substantial
and best citizens has decided to
move Oxford, where he is in
terested in the organization of a
new bank. He was for long
years connected with the Peopled
Bank here, and doubtless no man
was more responsible for the
great success of this institution
than Mr. Bradsher, Of course
we regret to see him leave, but
we comrriend him to the good
people of Oxford, for they have
secured a prize in inducing him
to locafe in their midst. As a
bank man he is among the best.
THIS 1 THE
w.
PERSON UNANIMOUS FOR KITCHIN
To Person Comity Democrat:
The evesQf North Carolina are
looking more intently upon the
action of Person County next
Tuesday than upon any other
County in the State, It is looking
to see whether a man of the type
of fW. Kitchin shall be hearti
ly endorsed. The whole State
recognizes the splendid character
of Governor Kitchin. People of
Person County have known him
intimately since he came to man
hood and they know that his pri
vate life is without a blemish.
They know better than all the
world his integrity, his fairness
in dealing and his frankness of
manner, and they have long since
learned to love him as well as ad
mire himf for his splendid traits.
Politically, Governor Kitchin
has reflected as great honor upon
Person County as any man who
ever liyed in it and no Democrat
in Person County can have
grounds for complaining at any
political action of his and, to me
at least, it seems that he has al
ways stood for fairness and jus
tice io all the people, for the
greatest good to the greatest
number. Person County has pro
duced more than one Congress
man and many men prominent in
statesmanship and business but
nope except him has ever risen to
claim the office of Governor of the
great State of North Carolina and
in statesmanship he has been the
peer of any.
Apart from Dolitical conviction
there is every reason in the world
why every Democrat in Person
County should exert himself in
every way to see that Mr. Kitchin
is nominated for the United States
Senate. It will reflect further
honor upon the County and will
show that a man of upright char
acter, of great ability, is appreci
ated by his fellow ccuntymen. If
the Democrats of Person County
believe in progressive Democracy
if they believe in a lowering of the
tariff to the basis merely for the
revenue Of government, if they
do not believe in protection, they
could certainly not go wrong in
voting for Governor Kitchin. No
man who knows him doubts the
sincerity of his convictions as a
progressive Democrat and must
believe that he will exert himself
to the utmost of his great ability
to bring about a bettering of the
conditions for the average man.
As to his chief opponent, Mr.
sirrmons, mere nas Deen cast
about his standing as a Democrat
RANGE
ET
L
so much doubt that the Demo
crats who believe in the carrying
out of the principles of the Demo
cratic platform ought to hesitate to
vote for him. Mr, Simmons in
sists that he is a tariff reformer
but he has cast more votes for
tariff higher than the one reconv
mended by the majority of Demo
cratic Congressman and more oM
ten than any other Senator except
Senator Bailey of Texas, who has"
fallen into utter disrepute among
the Democrats of the nation. Mr.
Simmons was on the platform
committee at the Democratic con
vention at Denver and helped'
write the plank for free lumber;;
but a few months later he voted
for the tariff at 1 1 per cent on
lumber. Further doubt is past
about his disinterested position
as to lumber by his strange action
in respect to Senator Lorimer, a
convicted tool of the Lumber
Trust, whom he first declared to
be the peer of any United States
Senator and voted to retaim as a
Senator, and then later voted to
exclude him from the Senate as
having corruptly and by bribery
bought his election. Mr. Simmons
has been very hard put to it to
prove in the face of many of his
votes on lumber and other things
that he belieyes at heart in tariff
reform; and so great and splen
did a Democrat as Mr. Bryan
wonders why the Democrats of
(North Carolina have tolerated him
so ilong. Nobody blames the
men who believes in high tariff
for voting for Mr. Simmons and I
know many such who don't deny
that is why they are for him.
rThey ought to do so; but most
people, like Mr. Bryan, wonder,
how progressive Democrats who
belie vein destroying the evils of
tariff can, as between Mr. Kitchin
and Mr. Simmons vote for Mr.
Simmons.
As to Judge Clark, nobody
doubts that Judge Clark has gone
very far in accepting every mod
ern theory of government and
that he believes thoroughly in
low tariff; but Judge Clark has not
the remotest chance of being
nominated for the Senate and that
a vote cast for him, good man as1
he is, is a vote thrown away or it
maybe regarded as a half vote
against Mr. Kitchin. Under these
circumstances eyen those who
believe in all the far reaching and
often excessive reforms advocated
by Judge Clark should hesitate
before casting a vote that will not
count.
When I remember what Gov
erner Kitchin has "done for my
.j.).).i.)S:.)e).)).).).).)).)

he appointed Mr. H. A. Foushee,
a' soridJbne of. Person County's
oldest tizens, to hold the office
of. Judge in the Ninth Judicial
District of .North Carolina; and
whea l remember what-a superb
governor of our whole state h
has made and what good name
he has added to our County, and
most of all when J remember
what an example of uprightness
and excellence of character and
of industry and dilfigence it seems
to rrie that no Democrat admir
ing as all do purity of character
and -force and intelligence, who
believes in the great principles
which are adyocated by oui party
in this election, particularly every
Democrat who lives in Person
County, could think of doing any
thiug else than voting for W. W.
Kitchin for Senator. AH the
Persan County Democrats who
live in Durham County are look
ing with earnest expectation to
see all the Democrats of Person
stand with them in casting their
votes for this'great and good man
for the high position to-which he
aspires and of which he is so
worthy.
