Let us cant an eye upon Virginia. Where Senator Daniel has been stren uously attacked : "The time Bas parsed now for Senator Daniel to have opposition for renomlna tlon In the.

Besides, manufacture more or less dit iricti vcly Southern nrj entitled to treatment on the same bas is, whatever that may be. as manu factures chiefly found elsewhere; the Souths Industrial development has epread benefits broadcast among the entire population, farmers especially. nd In all rc-sards merits a fostering care Southern people know that at present nearly four hundred million dollars a year must come from the tar iff and that substantial protection on American products is unavoidable! when imports bear such tax They want a rational and common- use tariff which shall distribute Its bur dens and Its blessings as equitably S possible without regard either to anybody's strained the-ot'. s or to con ditions no longer found. The people holding these views arc th. very peo ple who detest graft in the tariff most and fight it hardest. Many of them favor a tariff commission, to the end i that the trusts and other great spe cial interests may not longer exert undue influence. In no Southern State, o far as we can see. does the doubly ulcidal policy preachf-d by Senator Bimmons' opponents meet with favor from a majority of the people to-day And which way the tide runs even a blind man may know Recognizing this situation, or m-'St Of it, the entire North Carolina dele gation in House and Senate, w ith one ' exception, voted against free lumber We feel safe in assuming that these eleven representatives out of twelve! voted for what the people both want- ' ed and should have. And. as pointed 0Ut by Senator Simmons, the State j Democratic campaign management In "1808 recognized what the people; thought of the free-raw-material prop- oeition and Its tendency to destroy jtha them economically Chairman Eller's - office sent out tw-o hundred thousand ' fopies of a circular assuring the peo ple substantially: Thit Democrats would not put lumber on the free list, j' tt being a Southern product, unless i to largely cheapen the expenses of lumber manufacture. This was the promise given then, and It wag In the I nature of an intentional offset to the linnfr free-lumber plank written by a prairie statesman whose record 'shows that he never let anything pre vent h;m from getting all he could for his own home people. On Nebras- kg barley Colonel Bryan voted, with !the Republican high-protr tion wing. I fc,r over three times the highest duty for North Carolina lumber. The propos ed duty on lumber is hf nrarly a pure revenue duty as any found under the American tariff syftern. Any inciden tal protection which it may ield would hardly equal the Increase in Numbering ut brought alnut by the tariff at large Without some lum i ber duty the timber owner or lum berman Is placed under a most tin fair disadvantage as against his out side competitor, who receives indirect protection at h.s expense yet for voting Rf) per rent, reduced duty on lumber Senator Simmons also voted 39 per rent, reduced duty on Iron ore. I a related proposition -North Carolina Senators and Representatives must he 'strenuously denounced. I Probable intention apart, let us iconsider the probable consequences of attac ks now c entring against Senator Simmons We believe that these at tacks will do Senator Simmons as a party leader positive good, but how hbout the Democratic party? Ist fall Hryan received 136.9:'$ votes and Taft received 114.8S7 votes, the Republi cans electing three Congressmen. Cer tainly any attempt, whether through ambitious motives or not, to upheave the tate Democracy from its founda tions ih dangerous for both attacker a'nd attacked in fuce of o strong a foe And If the attackers won the nominations through pheer political strategy Hiey would almost Infallibly lone the election. North Carolina, far from favoring free trade in general, (till lrss favors free trade on impor tant North Carolina products coupled with protection on nearly everything North Carolina purchases Any gen tlemen desiring Senate or House seats would better work along some other line unlfws they are content with buzz saw cuts North Carolina voters, and especially North Carolina farmers, will not permit any pollry so strong ly against the State's Interests to tri umph pnnpFTtiiY rRiovKr bigamy.
