Bryanlias at last thrown off a dis
guise. He appears 'in the unqualified
guise of a revolutionist. His speeches
in Indiana the past week find no ex
tenuation, even in political despera
tion. In a country where there is less
freedom of speech,, among a people less
tolerant than the American people,
Bryan's ' definant, reckless, riotous ut
terances would cost him ,toi personal
liberty. He, has violated every, sanctity
of political civilization. He has sought
to turn the west against the east. He
has brutally arrayed the debtor against
the creditor. He has defiantly and ex
ultingly invoked a.conflict between the
native and the unnaturalized citiaen.
He has boldly attempted to inflame
the civilian against the American sol
dier. He tells the suitor to re3ist the.
-Judge. He tells labor. re?ist capuai.
He preaches the un-American doctrine
of force, insubordination, discontent,
revolution. He would teach toe Amer
ican people to "love the Filipino and
hate their brother Americans." He is
a demagogue, a revolutionist, a , de-
sriictionist, a public enemy. Is such a
man fit to be president? That is the
paramount issue.

SOME OF MR. CRAWFORD'S
QUEER INCONSISTENCIES
His Tangled Argument on That Con-
te&feSlurs on the Soldiers.
Ednasvilh Henderson County, N. C.,
Oct. 9. The congressional candidates
spoke today from the porch of Mr. Ja
cob Lyda's residence. The crowd was
small, and on account of the distance
from most anywhere and of Mr.
Moody's desire to catch the train at
Hendersonville in order to return to
Asheville this evening, the speeches
were shorter than usual.
Crawford opened and returned to his
old statement: "The people who vote
are responsible for our laws and our
officials. If the laws and officials are
good, the people should be commended;
if bad, they ore to blame."
Beg pardon, Mr. Crawford! Don't
you mean the people who vote and get
their votes counted? Tou certainly
can't mean that the people whose
votes got into the wrong box, or were
simply counted the other way, or in the
eastern counties, are responsible for
any thing the democrats do In office.
Crawford insists that all his votes
were thrown away and made void and
of no1 effect when they destroyed his
majority of two hundred odd. He
thinks that is robbery, etc.
Doubtless the democratic machines
will steal enough votes in a few, per
haps in one, of the negro counties to
destroy McKinley's majority in the
eighth and ninth districts, thus stea
ing all his votes dn these districts
well as throughout the state.
What does Crawford have to say S
to the propriety of that?
He declines to express himself di
rectly, but he approves it indirectly by
indorsing the "Majesty" of the Sim
mons law and by supporting Simmons
and advocating placing him in the sen
ate instead of in the penitentiary.
He says still that there is n prosper
ity, that money is as tight as it ever
was and that we are face to face with
the hardest times we have ever known.
Comment won't improve that. If we
could only get Crawford to write that
statement over his signature: "Wm.
T. Crawford, Candidate for Congress,"
it would make a bully republican cam
paign document
Fancy sending to congress a man
who doesn't know any better than that.
If he does know better, v-hy then !
Moody replied again to Crawford's oft
repeated statement that the vote of
Asheville was thrown out "because a
negro thief swore a lie, three months
after election." He showed that the
vote was thrown out because the other
witnesses were intimidated and pre
vented from testifying by the illegal
arrest of that witness against the wish
and over the protest of the federal of
ficer in charge of the investigation on
a charge of perjury, a charge they
never dared to push. They never
tried to indict him for perjury.. He
was convicted later of stealing a pair of
shoes .
The "Elder of the Presbyterian
church," Mr. Murphy, probably knew
enough law to know that the state
courts have no jurisdiction in the case
of perjury alleged to have been com
mitted in United States courts. There
fore, there could have been no object
in arresting him through the state
courts, except the hope of intimidating
the remaining witnesses. iNor did Mr.
Crawford and Mr. Murphy show any
desire to have the negro's story investi
gated, serious as the charge against
him was. Oh, no! they never at
tempted to have him tried for per
jury! They are proud to state, how
ever, that he was convicted for "steal
ing a pair of shoes," which same has
as much to do with the case as "the
flowers that bloom in the spring."
He also forcibly contrasted the dem
ocratic program of liberty and equal
rights for the "cannabalistlc," "polyga
mous," "savage," "civilized," "patriot
ic," "little brown men" in the Philip
pines with the policy of disfranchising
the black men and illiterate whites of
North Carolina and governing them
without their consent.
Great Scott! What a howling farce
it would be, this sentimental tommyrot
about imperialism, in the mouth of a
Sim one democrat. What a farce It
would be.lf it were not despicable treas
on, that Is costing the lives of better

eered to defend pur flag in that far

told how and In what way politicians
of the Bryan and Crawforl stamp were,
in their selfish hunt for office, endang
ering the lives of our solliers there, her
eyes filled and ooverflowedand time and
again she was heard to sob':' "That
bo." That's true." "That's what my
eon says." She is one of those on
whom Bryan, Crawford et al. levy
campaign contributions ' of blood and
suffering by keeping alive the Insurrec
tion'that they may have a "'paramount
issue." They must have something to
take the minds of the pe- rle off the
other planks of their platform. And
they don't care what it costa when
some one else pays the bill .
Think of the brave lives snuffed out
in an insurrection that those on the
ground all agree would have collapsed
long ago without the aid of such Amer
ican (how it -hurts to have to
call them Americans) lieutenants of
Agulnaldo as Bryan and Atkmson.

SPEECH BY JUDGE tWART.
Discussed the Issue of the Day to a
Large Crowd at Franklin.
Franklin, N. C, Oct. 11. Ex-Judge
JI. G. Ewart spoke to a large crowd in
the court house yesterday, and al
though the assemblage was largely
democratic, they gave the judge the best
attention throughout his entire re
marks. Judge Ewart is greatly liked
by the citizens of Macon county, and
his speech of yesterday means many
votes for the republican ticket. The
judge offered to divide time with any
democrat that would present himself.
but as none offered to meet him, thougfi
many learned democrats were present
it being court week we are prone ta
think that they, like the child who was
once burnt, dread the fire, very wisely
kept still. As the Judge was in the best
of spirits, the reader can well Imagine
that he made a great speech, eloquent,
learned and logical.
