the tiiu -s could not grow bet

that the .hdvin!ey aetshould

did their beat to disturb such
fears and create such a belief.
ICvur since, their one a i m
seems to have been to pro
long the period ot depression
and prevent until the Xovem

taut r.r.bject, vi;:: wheth.er or

by forming an alliance with
them or any other p irty.the
Republican party could be
able to defeat the 'clansmen'
of Xorlh Carolina without
sacriiii iug any of its distinc
tive principles, then I, for one
would gladly- lend my mite
of strength in bringing about
this much desired result. But
I do not see how a true Re
publican consistently assist
,mv mail of set of men no the
political ladder of tame who
are in diametrical opposition
to him. The Republican par
ty have certain fundamental
principles which are so plain
ly sot, forth in the State and
National platform that it is
a bsolu tel v im possible lor a ny
sane man to bo deceived .as
to what we beiieve on the
economic questions that are
the tending issues that divide
us from allothei parties, and
especially the Third party.
The Republican party be
lieves in ii tariff for protec
tion, the Third p:irty does
not; in proof of this notice
the Third party members in
Congress, how they voted
with the Democrats for the
infamous Wilson bill. The
Republican party believes in
fair elections and an honest
count, but 1 am not ready to

restore Stale banks and
'strike oh money that will

Now. Mr. Editor, these are
plain, unpolished facts and if
we, in forming a coalition
with the Third patty, have
to surrender Jiny of our well
founded prine'ples 1, an one
humble voter, shall be forced
to perform the unpleasant
duty of protesting against,
the same. In my opinion
the most prudent thing for
the Republicans of North
Carolina to do is to put out
;i lull ticket m every country
m
1 1,
State for all offices to
be hilled, composed of our
verv best im-innd have thorn
instructed to ie
ike an ag-riogre-sivo
;esso a n d 1
ii -lit for tho right:
ph setting forth the position
of the republican party in it
plain and prael h a! wa v with
out any semblance (a- equivo
cation. By pursuing this
course we can at least com
mand the respect of all op
posing forces and be able to
arouse the masses ofour own
voters to such an extent
that we could confidentially
'.cunt on a full vote. It ap
pears that some Republican:
are of the opinion that by
coalition with tiie Third par
ty we could prevent Demo
em ts from .acting dishonest
ly at elections. 1 caunot see
the logic in this conclusion,
f-.n if the Democratic party is
guilty of as black and hellish
a crime as that, it oeitninly
does so in -lay light and if that
Republican, Third ,.nd Prohi
bition parties separately an
not. able to prevent it how in
the name of common sense
could they prevent it a unite?
One more thought and I
will dose this already too
iengthy letter. If by pursu
in o. course similiar to the
one I have mvkardly blocked
out the Republican party
cannot convince the people
of this State (now that they
have tasted of the Democrat
ic hard times) that it is to
their best interest to vote
for the Republican candi
dates, then they would not
believe, though onfi rose from
the dead.
