THE NEXT ELECT
Tar Heel Republicans Already
Planning for the Campaign
of 1918
FOR
ION
Raleigh, Nov. 13. Within a week
after, their: crushing defeat Republi
cans are ' laying plans for another
campaign from which they hope bet
ter results and a return to their old
time vote.
In a short while those who would
create a new order or restore - the
old will give their names to the pub
lic. They are just feeling about now
and taking stock pf the party which
preciously near went into bankruptcy
last week. Three things they will
present, it is said. They will declare
unequivocally for the constitutional
amendment of 1900 and berate the
Democrats for voting the blacks; will
declare passionately , against the pay
ment of the carpetbag bonds and
fight the Democrats to bitter
death over any proposition to take
the tariff, the birthright of the Re
publicans, out of politics.
Even more positively, they do say,
they will refuse to assail the Dem
ocracy again for "extravagance," un
less the typical Democracy again
reigns and soup houses, bread lines
An rv that Mr. Duncan, after the
election of 1910, submitted a few re
marks to Mr. Taft and called a few
names which . correspond faithfully
with the . present-day disorganization
that ran upon the rocks last week.
Duncan Doetnt Depose. , '
Now, the Honorable Carl will not
depose. ... That was done for him in
March.,- He . won't deny that he wrote
a letter, he merely puts it up to Mr
Big Bill Taft, as th$y call him, and
what he said to; Mr. Taft, if he said
it, is yet in the capacious bosom of
that most capacious man. But some
"Radicals" have read that letter
They say Duncan told the fat person
that these blamed fellows down here
had pretty nigh ruined the party, but
Duncan doesn't say he said so. He
doesn't say he said at all. ,And Dun
can's enemies relate the Taft letter
and its supposed, "I told you so," to
show that Duncan "lays down" when
he is beaten and thereby brings to
grief the reformers who would re
lieve the party of this Duricanic body,
o! death.
This is all inside stuff which Dun
can's enemies are peddling. They
say that Duncan has always opposed
growth. Lester Butler and Bud Ma-
rion have written that a thousand
times and they have succeeded in
making a few believe it. They be
lieve it themselves, apparently. But
the figures are more interesting than
fervid attack upon Duncan.
The Republican party polled 126,- j
296 votes in the 1900 election and the
first application of the amendment
knocked out 65,000. In 1902 it reg
istered and voted 68,174 men. In

in a year like this," Thad Ivey, per- j modest, the Republicans voted 77,017.
fectly fearless, said a day or so ago, j In 190gj two years after the Duncan
and Thad had taken a "high dive into; Adams forces triunmhed. the ReDub-
the lake of truth" more than a month
ago. Mr. Ivey doesn't think it possi
ble to talk against 19.25 cotton, 90c
cottonseed and $1.75 wheat. Mr.
Ivey can produce iambi hexameters
in the presentation of Senator Butler,
but he can't chant roundelays on the
Democratic adversity that persists in
20c cotton and 35c tobacco here in
Wake.
But some State leaders ace seri
ously sounding their party upon the
incorporation of the amendment and
the bond repudiation in their next
platform. What could have been
more diabolically unfortunate than
the Cuban suit on the eve of an elec
tion can hardly be imagined. Some
Republicans think it a Democratic
plot, others think it the devils of 111-
1 licans ran their vote to -114,884. Their
State vote was less than 7,000 behind
that and they reduced the biggest
Democratic vote to a 37,000 majority.
In 1910 Duncan and Adams were
overthrown. Their four years had
brought their 77,000 vote to 114,000.
In 1910 John M. Morehead -beat the
alliance out on the Butler-Morehead-Settle
bigger combine. There were
three Republican congressman that
year, elected in the 1908 election. The
party was in a great majority but
that year it lost the house. The Re
publican vote slipped back to 94,017,
Morehead's district went Democratic
again by 3,000 and . the two Western
Republican congressmen retired for
Democrats. And unless the Republi
cans run their total to 94,000 this
Laid wig Ress, 17& pounds, of New
York, and Max Smith, 175 pounds, of
New Bern, will wrestle in Wolvern 1
Hall Friday night of this .week, and
mat fans are promised a great ex-
hibriion by Fritz Hanson, who is pro
moting the match. Mr. Hanson only
returned to the city Saturday afteri
noon and his activities wouia indi
cate that he intends giving Wilming
ton some .real wrestling this winter.
The bout will be- staged on the sec
ond floor of the Wolvin building and
not on the third, as in the past. The
absence of fire escapes caused the
change and should fire develop in
the building it would be possible for
the fans to move out on the roofs of
adjoining buildings.
Ress is a Belgian and comes here
with an enviable reputation. Hcj
vL'i-oct 1 or! loaf winter in ihp Manhat
tan Opera House during the National
tournament and is quite a figure in J-
the wrestling world. Smith, who will
meet him, is a resident of New Bern
and has been training with Draak.
He wires Mr. Hanson that he is in
excellent condition and confident of
downing his adversary. The festivi
ties will start at 8:30 o'clock.

that has a paper.
But while one set of the disconso
late would discuss points upon which
the party might agree, another ele
ment, stronger the past year than
the powers of union, accepts the' de
feat of the State ticket as the evi
dence of a laydown by the Duncan
forces and now opines that the one
hope is to take Senator Butler, make
him leader and whip to fearsome fin
ish everything that ever looked of i
Duncan. Down in Sampson, Wayne,
Cumberland and Duplin is a coterie
of Republicans who believe the solu
tion is just that. They are hope
lessly at odds. They cannot agree
upon fundamental facts.
Some ofthese men have knowledge
of a letter which they say E. Carl
Duncan wrote to a President of the
United States once upon a time, as
the storybooks say, and that gentle
man is known to fame as "Big Bill
Taft." These Republicans, like
Judge Clark's Yancey man, "have
hearn" of that letter whose contents
hey know not, in detail. But they
record made in an off year, the first
under the Morehcad-Settle-Butler
management, and will . fall 20,000
short of the best Duncan-Adams year.
1910 took place the un-typical Re
publican campaign. Eugene Holton
was railing at the factories and the
Democratic deviltry that allows them
and other corporations to run. the
Democracy; Jess A; Giles was lam
basting the business mon for not run
ning their factories on full time, the
while they made fabulous dividends;
Tom Settle was talking local self
government and, appealing to the
anti-prohibition sentiment; Butlei
was calling Josephus Drniels, Sim
mons and Overman "skunks and trait
ors," and urging the committees to
bill him over the State, while much
smaller fry cussed Duncan for being
a prohibitionist. And Elwood Cox,
their chief, had taken 13,000 more
votes than any former Republican,
and 16,000 more than Settle and
Meares combined.
Everywhere Mr. Butler did the
oratoricals that year the Republican
vote shrunk and the Democratic
party distended, itself. What Duncan
said to Mr. Taft is locked up in the
