The' weather waa tiot wholly favorable, a drlwllng rain having prevailed dur ing the forenoon. The sky began clcar fc'rtsT. however, -a short time before the ',fMunhlng. The big battleship was gaily decorat ed with flags' and ' bunting, as were also the yard 'buildings in honor of the occasion.

" 1 lie) 1) Chankctertsea ' the Republican Chalmian M KK-ker and Cite Some Allerd , Instances of , I1H , DiasatlitfacUon - Declares He I ' Blackbnrn'a vllgnre-Jlead. ,. v To the Editor of The Observer; I sincerely regret that I am so very reluctantly forced to beg space in your paper to briefly answer political and personal charges appearing over Chae. H. Cowles' algnature, of the sth in stant, dated Greeneboro, Oct. C 1904. Loth, S I am In this matter. I prom ise . the editor of The. Observer and its readers that I will not be drawn Into an extended personal controversy, by Mr. Cowles or any one eUe, to bore the edltor'and-readers.;.v Mr, 'Cowles, Blackburn's chairman, says, etmng other things; ; 'The peo ple of WUkeeboTo, are well acquftinted wttfv yourrTOrreaponden at that plc and, therefore,., his occasional letters to The Observer do not cause Repub licans there- any alarm whatever, but, as he is known by a few," etc. Peo ple who understand the political situ ation in this district, can easily read, between the -lines, the context of the entire card. When I am acting In public capacity it is always my desire to divest myself, for the time being. , of all personnl feeling and prejudice whatever; yet I am human and liable to err. "Your paper. Mr. Editor, is conduct ed upon too. high a plan to employ u man who misrepresents-facts as does this fellow U M. Lyon.'- X.1ke the fable of old, all depends on the fact, whether it was the bull or t he' ox gored, - If I am correctly Informed, Mr. Ed itor, this same kicker, Mr. Chas. H. Cowles, denounced the report of the Blackburn and Newland speaking at Taylorsvllre. signed, "J. C. M." and published, in The Observer of September-jib. ult.. about the tame in sub stance as his card dated October tth. A prominent young Republican of Wilkes county, who heard Mr. Cowles denounce "J. C "M.'S" Taylorsville replrt, told me that he took English at Wake Forest College under "J. C M.," and that Mr. Cowles failed to convince htm that "J. C. M." did not give a fair report. Mr. Cowles, In his card to The Ob server of April' '11th, answering "A Voter," read R. Don Laws, editor of The Tellowjacket out W"the -Republl can party. . - - .. , This same Blackburn crowd ore con tinually denouncing the reports given by your correspondents , a tareens horo. Salisbury, Statesville and othor points. Mr. Cowles says, (referring to Lyon he thinks himself a prominent Re publican, and imagines no doubt, that he "Aggers" extensively In the deliber ations of that party. Nothing contained In the last quotation bothers me in my dreams or otherwise, but Mr. Cowles has been Blackburn's "figure head" chairman long enough to build "air castles" touching the heavens, and no doubt, fancies his sublime greatness and magnetic power as hp reigns In the halls of revelry- Mr. Cowles states that I scratched every Republican name except one, on our county ticket two years ago. Thl statement is absolutely false. When Mr. Cowles was appointed in the recent Republican primary In Wllkesboro, he designated L. Bumgarner, ex-C. S. C, who was made permanent chairman of- tap primary; E. O. Maeteu, ex-D C.f Clarence Call, ex-Sheriff; B. S Call, ex-P. M. at this place and myself as Delng Democrats. See report if Re publican primary in The Wllkesboro Chronicle, September 21, 1904. According to Mr. Cowles' standard qualifications and tests for a good Re publican, vlx: That he must first be an office-holder, draw a few thousand dollars of public money, be a cam gaign sucker, managing the funds, l fall far short of being a Republican at al. But, if a man can possibly be a Republican from choice and honest convictions, without reward or the hope of reward, 1 belong to the G. O. P. I do not think Mr. Cowles' Republi canism will stand the test further than Spencer Blackburn's Interests extend. Since the Republican convention held here, March 81, Mr. Cowlea told me that he (OowleS) longed to see the day that Judge James E. Boyd would be Impeached, turned out of office and finished. I am not for Blackburn for Con gress, neither am I supporting Mr. Newland. I am a cltisen of Wilkes county and do not mean to be forced to support any man against my will. I willingly accord every man the priv ilege to support the man of his choice, in this campaign, and I shall never Intentionally offend any man. bv word or act, he be a Blackburn, Linney or a any other sort of a Republican, or Newland or any other sort of a Dein crat.
