Senator T. M. Stannous hu ent
the following statement to Editor
Harris of the Charlotte Chronicle. It
eill be of Interest to reader of The
DUpatch:
May JOfe. Mil.
Mr, Wade H. Harris, .
Charlotte. N. C
My Dear Mr. Harria In an editor
ial In your issue of Friday, May 19th,
which was called to my attention to
day, you say that report are being
circulated that I am "interested with
Senator Lorimer In some big land
deals In Eastern North Carolina. Fur
ther that he (I) is Interested with Lo
rimer in some western land deals."
You Tery kindly add that "The Chron
icle takes no stock in such talk, but
it wants Senator Simmons to speak
tor himself and it believes he will do
eo."
I am glad you have given publicity
through the columns of your paper to
these unfounded statements, because
it gives me an opportunity to answer
them.
I wish to say to you, and through
you to the people of North Carolina
that it is not true that I am interest
ed with Senator Lorimer in any land
deal in eastern North Carolina, nor
am I interested with him in any wes
tern land deals. I have never had a
business transaction with him in my
life. I own no interest with him in
any property of any kind and never
have.
I presume these rumors or reports
have grown out of the fact that Sen
ator Lorimer and Mr. Lowden, a son-in-law
of George E. Pullman, togeth
er with certain other western gentle
men, as a result ol conversation vmn
me and investigations made by theml
through the agricultural department
as to swamp and overflowed lands in
Eastern North Carolina at different
times during the past winter, either in
person or through their representa
tives visited and caused to be exam
ined quite a number of tracts of
swamp and pocosin lands lying in the
eastern part of the state, including
several large tracts owned by the
John L. Roper Company and the lands
of Wilkinson brothers near Belhaven,
about which so much has been writ
ten in the North Carolina papers, also
a tract of pocosin swamp land lying
near New Bern in which Mr. Thomas
D. Warren and Mr. A. D. Ward own
an interest.
But these gentlemen as a result of
their investigations did not find any
land which was sufficiently attractive
to them as an investment, and there
the whole matter finally ended.
Mr. Lorimer and Mr. Lowden were
led to investigate these lands largely
as the result of my statements to them
as to their fertility, cheapness and
the feasibility of their reclamation to
advantage. Mr. Lowden is a man of
large fortune as I understand and
Mr. Lorimer is at the .head of one of
the largest construction and drain
age corporations in the west.
This matter first became a subject
of conversation and discussion be
tween Mr. Lorimer and myself in con
nection with our duties as members
of the National Waterways Commis
sion, which has to do with drainage
as well as navigation, and the fact
that I knew of his large interest in
the subject of drainage.
For some time I have been deeply
interested in the drainage of our Eas
tern North Carolina swamp lands,
having attended and addressed con
ventions called for the purpose of
considering that subject, which I be
lieve to be, outside of good roads, the
most important question now before
the people of my section of the state.
1 have not only done everything I
could to promote this drainage move
ment both by agitation and endeavor
ing to Induce capital to invest in these
swamp lands and reclaim them, but I
have been active In trying to secure
legislation providing government aid
for draining them. During the last
session of congress over $30,000 was
added to the appropriation for survey
ing, mapping, etc., these lands at my
instance.
In this connection it may be well
for me to answer another charge
which I understand Is being circula
ted throughout the state with a view
to discrediting me. It has come to
me by correspondence and otherwise
that it is being quietly but diligently
circulated in sections of the state
where my financial condition is not
known, as in the town and section in
which I live, that I am a millionaire
and that I have become such since I
entered the senate.
Now the fact is, as la well known
in the city where I live, that practi
cally everything I owi l la lands,
chiefly (arming las da. and I ana sorry
to aay that practically ail ot ueoe
lands, including even my home, is
mortgaged, or pledged by way of re
servation 0(1 title, for fully kali ot
their value taken altogether.
Outside of the farm which my fath
er, who died since 1 Dec am a mem
ber of the senate, left me I am worth
today less than 1 was when I was
elected to the senate.
1 regret exceedingly to have to refer
to my personal affairs, but when ru
mors of this character are circulated
with a view to reflecting upon my in
tegrity I feel that I owe it to myaelf
as well as the people of the state to
state the facts.
With assurance of high esteem, I
am.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) F. M. SIMMONS.
Concerning the letter the Chronicle
says:
The Chronicle prints today a letter
over the signature of Senator F. M
Simmons, which not only clears him
self .from charges of partnership with
Senator Lorimer in certain alleged
laud deals, rumors of which bad been
diligently circulated over the state,
but of another charge to which pub
licity had not been given. Senator
Simooms' statement is clear and un-
equivocal.. It will satisfy his friends
and confuse his enemies. One of the
most valuable services he has render
ed the people of eastern North Caro
lina is in the Improvements he has
secured in canal and drainage work
and in the deepening of river chan
nels. His efforts to bring the advan
tages and possibilities of swamp lands
to the attention of development capi
talists were altogether commendable.
It would have been the better for the
state had he succeeded. We are in
c lined to think that Mr. SiromonB has
set matters straight so tar as any
dealings with Lorimer are concerned.
An unbiased, discriminative, unpreju
diced reader may be able to quite eas
ily see how. In view of Senator Sim
mons' official connection with other
members of the senate committee in
swamp land work, it was made easy
to tangle him with rumors of a dis
creditable character and for which
there was no foundation. His denial
is absolute and his recital of the cir
cumstances will strengthen his hands
and the hands of his friends. As we
look at it, those who hereafter persist
in voicing the Lorimer charges against
Simmons will be but sinking them
selves into the class of mud-slingers.
At the outset, the Chronicle call
for a campaign of decency. Having
seen the drift of thines, it thought
best to bring this matter to the front
at once, as a means of checking the
tendency toward character-tearing, all
too plainly evident. Senator Simmons
political enemies who would assail his
integrity, will find themselves defeat
ed at everv turn. If they want to defeat
him let them turn their attention to
producing reasons why be should not
be returned to the senate. It would
be better to give reasons, than to be
circulating rumors. This same fair
ness for Simmons, the unronicie
would invoke for Aycock. Kitchin
Clark, or any other man who might
aspire to the senatorshlp.

( Good Bonds ITlttMt Balsln;
- Taxes,
At the time the election was hell
for voting the good road bond a
great Bomber of our farmer could
not see wherein they would b bene
fitted and voted against the bond, but
the vote In Qreeneboro and High
Point, even thonga not dollar ot th
bond Issue was spent in either city,
was almost unanimous for the bonds
and the election waa carried by a
large majority. Today yon cannot find
an Intelligent farmer in Guilford coun
ty who 1b not an enthusiast tor good
road. Why this great change? Gull
ford county now ha 120 mile ot ma
cadam and gravel road and our. pro
gressive farmers have reaped ricn
benefit financially because of our
good road. They can now eome to
market any day, rain or shine, and
haul heavier load than they used to
and with less burden to their stock,
lea wear and tear to their vehicles.
The man who live ten mile from
town before we had good road now
in reality only live five mile from
the city. In other words, it take him
no longer now to travel the ten mile
on macadam roads than it toon mm
to travel five on the old bad road;
and now he can come, no matter it it
ha been raining for week, and can
travel in comfort to himaelt and with
ease to his stock.
Farm land have increased in value
because of our good roads and our
farmer are enjoying the greatest
prosperity in their history. They can
bring product to market with the
greatest ease and wltn so mucn less
loss of time. Have these benefits rais
ed taxes? Not a cent Our tax rate
was 79 cents when we had mud roads
and it is 79 cents today. We propose
to keep what roads we have in repair
and to build, more. Good roaa are
no longer an experiment but they are
an assured success from every vlew-
nolnt It la not a question with any
county if they can build the roads, the
question Is can they aoora not to
build them. C. C. McLean, Secretary

Nine Cows and a Horse Burned.
A cow barn on the plantation of Mr.
P. M. Brown, five miles southwest of
the city, was burned Saturday night,
and the blaze had gained such head
way before it was discovered that the
entire contents of tne building were
lost. The loss included nine milk
:ows, which were a part of the dairy
herd of the place, and a horse, a mule,
milk wagon and buggy besides a quan
tity of feed that was In the barn.
Mr. J. R. Black who lives on tne
place and has charge of it, stated af
ter the fire that a tramp had applied
to hhn early In the evening for per
mission to sleep in the barn and per
mission was refused. He believes that
the fire started by that tramp, either
Duruosely on account of malice be
cause of being turned down, or acci
dentally, after he returned to the barn
for the night regardiesa of tne reiua-
al.
The loss to Mr. Black, who owned
the cows, horse, mule and everything
excent the barn, was between 1800 and
J1.000. The barn, which, of coure be
longed to Mr. Brown, cost about $300
