President Barrett of the Firm en'
Union of America, la a level-headed
Individual. He baa contributed to the
column of the newspapers of the
country during the paat two rears
soma very effective literature on a
vide range of subjects. His latest
Sort la a letter to the members of
the arrest organization that he beads
condemning vote selling and vote
buying. As the practice Is very mucn
in vogue In Davidson ' county, the
letter Is here offered with the hope
that It will do good. Vote-buying and
vote-selling Is open and notorious In
many counties. The practice Is con
doned even by those who refuse to
engage In it themselves. Read what
Mr. Barrett has to say about u:
During the past few months papers
in America have teemed with ac
counts of vote buying and selling in
Adams county, Ohio. The country
affects to have been scandalized as
it has not been in years.
Traffic in the franchise is not pe
culiar to Adams county, or to Ohio,
or to any other American state. At
the risk of being termed a sensation
alist, I assert deliberately that It is
prevalent in a great many counties in
the majority, perhaps all, of the
American states.
I choose this particular time for
drawing the attention of the farm
ers' union to this evil, because it is
an off year In politics. If I waited
for an elction year, with politics and
partisanship raging, I would be ac
cused of unduly dabbling in politics.
As it is, that charge cannot be sus
tained. The farmers' union is assumed to
be a great moral force. That is why
Its members should concern them
selves with scourging bribery from
American politics.
Our organization is also a great
educational movement. We shall not
fulfill the first qualification of that
mission until we purify the ballot As
long as our men and boys see vote
buying and selling going on, all the
education we preach into one ear will
go out of the other.
I make these statements regarding
barter and sale of votes with the
greatest deliberation. I know where
of I speak. My citizenship has been
held, mainly, in three counties of
Georgia. In the county in which I
was born, a small multitude of white
men were kuown to be willing to sell
their votes. In the county where
1 spent fifteen years of my life a sim
ilar percentage of white voters were
furchasable. In the county in which
have now resided for about three
years, in the neighborhood of two
.hundred voters are regularly on the
market.
Conditions are no worse in these
than In other Georgia counties. They
are no worse than in ' many counties
throughout the country. Human na
ture does not vary with geography,
nor is It altered by partisanship.
Around a large number of court
houses in this country you will find
one man, or one or two men, who
know just about how many white vo
ters in the county will sell their votes.
You will also find in a large num
ber of counties In America men you
must "fix" before they will help you
in an election. I do not mean to say
that these men will brazenly accept
money for their Influence.
That would be too crude. You go
to such Individuals and say, for in
stance: "Tom, I know you'd knock
me down if I offered to buy your in
fluence, and I know you're for me
anyway. But you've got to get away
from your business to work tor me.
That means I ought to pay you for
your time, with a little more for ex
penses, and a little more to treat the
boys, etc."
Get many politicians in a really
tandld mood and they will tell you
they owe their election to this type of
men. They may deplore the system,
but they want office, and the most di
rect way of getting It is to bow to the
god-of-things-as-they-are.
This condition cuts two ways.
It debauches the voter and the electorate-
and it secures, frequently, an
Indifferent public servant
The man indebted to such a meth
od for his election has a contempt
for the constituents he. bought and
an indifference to those who let such
things exist
Naturally he has not Incentive to
exert himself to any extent ana the
public service is the sufferer.
I need not dwell on the viciousness
of dealing in votes as In merchan
dise. It pollutes popular government
at its source.
Day by day we get government
closer to the people, soon we will
elect all officials by popular vote-
United States senators, judges, all ol
them from the highest to the lowest
We want to purge the electorate in
advance of that day, that we , shall
have the ablest officials, and the clean
est most incorruptible government
' It can be done too. Twelve . men
In any community infested with traf
fic in the suffrage can put a period to
the practice, with the proper courage
and proper vigiience.
Members of the fanners' union can
engage In no more patriotic or ser
viceable labor. They are false to their
obligation- to the order unless they do
so, in the first place. And, in the
second place, we can no more enec
tually apologise for the farmer who
trades his vote for money than for
the veriest city "repeater" or "bum,'
marshaled to the polls at the com
mand of the "boss," or his henchmen,
May lit it Mothers Day. .

The TfckUik Sttsatle m Ue BeHer.
Mexico has practically reached a
condition of anarchy. And the raw
material out of which to build a real
democratic republic is lacking.
Desiring to tost the political intel
ligence of the people, a recent tour
ist asked a hotel waiter of the city of
Mexico, to tell him who was mayor of
that municipality.
"Pornrio Wax," was the prompt re
ply.
"O, no, he's the president," said the
traveller. He s not the mayor.
"O, lsnt he." asked the waiter? Til
go ask."
Soon bs brought back the informa
tion that a certain man waa mayor.
It afterward turned out that this m
was not mayor at all, but governor of
the federal province, a political divi
sion like one of our states. Similar
inquiry in other restaurants showed
like misinformation.
When President Taft and President
Diax met at El Paso last year, it was
reported and widely believed among
the common people, that Diaz had lit
erally sold Mexico to the Americans.
Terms and details of this deal were
given.
What can you do with such a people
but to send them back to their cafes
and cigarets and bull fights in peace?
President Dial falls to give satis
factory assurance of a neutral sone
along the border, so that our peace
ful citizens shall not receive bullets
intended by the Mexican factionists
for each other.
And to secure the consent of the
other party, Uncle Samuel would have
to hunt up each individual lnsurrecto
in his personal headquarters In some
mountain cave. This might be awk
ward. As far as the money interests go, it
might be the cheapest way out of it
to let the Mexicans blow up a little of
the railroad and public service con
struction our citizens have hazarded
down there outside the control of their
own government The Mexicans do
not like to walk well enough so that
trains and cars would stop long. And
they are too afraid to go home in the
dark to do anything very bad to the
electric light systems built with Amer
ican capital.
But our people will not long see
American citizens in the border towns
slain while attending peaceably to
their own business. Greenfield Ga
zette. Old Nick's Liquor Not Sold.
The Winston-Salem Journal Friday
had the following story:
It was a disappointed crowa that
went to Williams yesterady in quest
of the famous Yadkin county corn
liquor, 30.000 gallons of which Uncle
Sam had announced by an official or
der from the pen of the United States
commissioner of Internal revenue
that he would put on sale to the high
est bidder.
The booze was there all right, stor
ed snugly away in the big warehouse.
l he buyers were there they came
from the hills of Yadkin and the
woods "of Wilkes, from the cities far
away and from Winston-Salem near
by. They were there on foot, a horse
back, In buggies and some came siz
zling through the fields in big touring
cars. By different routes they came,
by dltlerent modes they journeyed to
the mecca of their desires. Different
people they were men with the grind
ing cares of the business load stamp
ed on every feature care-free swains
with the ruddy complexion of the
zephyr-kissed hills and sun-lit fields
but all were united on the booze-
bent way. One man Is said to have
had $100,000 In his Jeans. That would
have bought It all.
The sale did not come off, however,
and it is related that Mr. N. Glenn
Williams, the duke of the Yadkin and
master of ceremonies for all that sec
tion, gave some of the gentlemen a
pretty warm reception. Tbey did not
tarry long on the big plantation,
which Is enough to say.
Collector Brown of Statesville sent
a deputy, who declared the sale off
until May 6. Then it is said It will be
sold nnless Judge Boyd stops the
proceedings. The matter has been
before Judge Boyd for the past month,
Mr. Foster, In whose name the whis
key is stored, having made an appli
cation for an Inlunction against the
distraint sale. Owing to the fact that
the federal Judge had not rendered a
decision In the case, the sale was
postponed. Yesterday District Attor
ney Hoi ton, for the government and
Mr. L. M. Swink of this city and Judge
Bynum of Greensboro, attorneys for
Mr. Foster, appeared before the
Judge in Greensboro, and Mr. Holton
stated last night that Judge Boyd
would render a decision in the mat
ter today.
The contention of the revenue de
partment of the government is that
the whiskey, which has been in the
warehouse for the past five years, is
not sufficiently bonded, and the sale is
for the taxes. The owners of the
whiskey claim that the bond is Just as
good as it ever was, and demand the
right to keep the whiskey there In the
warehouse Just as it haa remained for
half a decade.
A big black negro covered up in bed
was the discovery made by Mrs. H.
W. Holt a well-known lady in Spen
cer as she entered one of the rooms
In her home one day last week. Mrs.
Holt found a door locked and could
not account for It Securing a key to
another door to the same room she
entered alone to find the negro ap
parently asleep. Mrs. Holt fled to the
home of a neighbor to give the alarm
and when she returned the negro had
fled, leaving his pants In the room. A
colored servant in the home was sus
pected of being connected with the af
fair and she also fled.

"The Reciprocity Agreement'' From a
Canadian Standpoint
You desire to make Canada for trade
purposes like unto a state of the un
ion, except that you do not propose to
employ your capital within her bor
ders. You will .draw her raw resourc
es to your very own country and work
them up by your very own people and
of course reap the profits. Canadians
may find employment in the rough
work, cutting timber and loading it,
mining ores and shipping them, rais
ing stock and putting it on board Mr.
Hill's cars, producing grain and draw
ing it to .the trains headed southward.
Well, all that you wish to do to ben
efit your country we wish to do to
build up our country.
If raw materials form the basis of
Industrial development we are In no
hurry to invite their wholesale ex
ploitation by 90,000,000 of people who
have squandered their, own. if the
working up of such material is a sure
way to population, wealth, and nation
al prosperity, why should we not pur
sue that path, the very path by which
you have arrived at your present won
derful development? Why should we
rest content with simply digging out
ore, cutting Umber, raising stock and'
grain? Why should we not proceed to
manufacture and finish it and then to
distribute it by our own lines of trans
port for our own home wants and
then to export the surplus through our
own seaports and by our own mer
chant marine?
We have at great cost opened our
vast prairies and established an In
dustrial system for the purpose of at
tracting population and capital and
developing our rich natural resources.
For thirty years we have been ex
pending money lavishly In perfecting
our east and west transport, to devel
op our Interprovlnclal trade, and facili
tate exchanges with the mother coun
try. The reciprocity pact cuts straight
across this ' deviopment and
this Ideal, disconnects our provinces,
attacks our industries, taps our east
and west connections by north and
south lines, and menaces our nation
al solidarity. Hon. G. E. Foster, M.
P., In the May number of the North
American Review. ,
The Hangar.
About two miles from the city, on
the Castle HaynaS road, there has
been ercted a large building of some
what unusual design, and it has at
tracted much attention. The build
ing is the property of the American
Aeroplane Company, and is to be used
as a machine shop and hangar for
this company's first aeroplane now
m course of construction.
The building, or "hangar" as It Is
called In aeronautical language. Is
said to be much larger than la usual
ly the case, this being necessary on
account of the large type of the ma
chine. It will be twice as large as
the Curtiss machine used In the exhi
bitions here some time since. The
height of the flyer will be about 17
feet with a wing spread of 36 feet
and a fore and aft measure of U
feet Two' 60-horse power revolving
engines will furnish power for the
two paragon propellers of seven and
a bait feet diameter, giving a combin
ed pull of between 800 and 1,000
pounds at 1,200 revolutions per min
ute. The frame work will be exclu
sively of steel tubing and castings of
macadamlte. The weight will be ap
proximately 650 pounds and the areas
of supporting surface over 600 square
reet Much of the material lor tne
machine has already arrived and an
order has been placed for tbe re

A riae Unitary Example.
Raleigh has had Ue pleasure this
weak of having in it a cumber of the
national guardsmen of the state, the
companies of the Third. Regiment and
the Coast Artillery Company, of
Greensboro, having been represented
here by teams of tea men each.
These teams were on, the Raleigh
Rifle Range to engage In a competitive
rifle contest, and the records made
show that there are expert riflemen in
the guard, and that those in the Third
Regiment have such skill that the
contestants in the efjier two regiments
will have to be oa the alert to attain
the position of leaders for the trophy
to be contested for by teams from all
the companies from the brigade.
The visit of the one hundred and
thirty marksmen to Raleigh has been
marked by the best of military con
duct on their part Their deport
ment and general behavior has been
such as to elicit only the highest ap
proval, and tbe visit of these young
men of the Third Regiment to Ral
eigh haa been altogether a most cred
itable event for the North Carolina
national guard.
And this impression of the state
guard is one to be prised far above
any success as contestants in the
competitive shooting. Time has been
and it la a time not so far in the
misty past that no body of military
could traverse the state without there
being registered protests against the
conduct of some of the BOldiers, while
in some instances there were casual
ties to be reported. In late years,
however there has been a splendid
esprit de corps In the military of the
state, and this has had a large in
fluence in the state in bringing in
creased favorable attention to the
military and to Its needs.
The competitive shooting contest In
Raleigh haa been marked by this high
spirit of soldierly conduct and there
has not been raised one word of pro
test against the men who took part in
the meet. There was perfect order
In the camp, on the rifle range, and
on the streets, and on the railroad
trip. With the conduct of the teams
of the Third Regiment and of the
Greensboro Company of Coast Artil
lery as an example of the military of
the state, the people generally have
reason to be proud of the North Caro
lina national guard. News and Ob

Mexico Almost Owned by Americans.
If the newspaper men have their
facts correct, Americans come pretty
near owning Mexico railroads, mines
plantations and all. The Baltimore
Sun enumerates a number of these
corporate activities and says: "These
are only a few of the points of con
tact between prominent Americans
and Mexicans in the corporate con
trol of big enterprises in Mexico. It
is estimated that something like $900,
000,000 of American money has been
invested in Mexico. During twenty
years following 1886, $336,000,000 of
American money was invested in the
mining and industrial enterprises of
Mexico, to say nothing of the bank
ing and railroad investments." It re
quired the litle border brouble to
show how Americans have been get
ting rich In Mexico. We had no idea
that the Investments there were on
suoh a large scale, but as the Sun
says, this Is only a partial list- It
seems that nearly all the railroads In
Mexico are owned by Americans, and
If we desired the annexation of Mex
ico there would not be much trouble
in bringing about that end. But an
nexation of Mexico Is about the last
thing the United States should desire.

An Interesting habeas corpus pro
ceeding was heard before Judge Webb

day afternoon in which a four-year-old
child was involved. The father of
the child, Hugh Alderman, of Jackson
ville, Fla., sought the courts aid to
gain the privilege of seeing his boy.
It seems that a decree entered some
time ago by the Florida courts, al
lowed Mrs. Alderman custody of the
child, but also allowed the father the
custody of the child two weeks in ev
ery certain number of months. Mrs.
Alderman and the child are now at
