PULISTS ONLY STRENGTHEN THE HANDS THAT BIND THEM BY SUPPORTING HIM REPUB LICAN NATIONAL PLATFORM DENOUNCES THESE OUTRAGES. Marshall, N. C, Nov. i'ILsenator Prltchard turned to his home todaj. He speaks at Knoxville 'tomorrow oiighr. The .following letter has ibeetij received by -Wra senaitor: r, . Concord, N. C, Oct., 1900. Senator J. C. Pritchard, Marshall, N. C,;. Dear Sir: In reply to a Question I will say- that the populist party today is. a party of independents. So far as national politics are concerned there are no two who agree exactly as to what they want. Some will vote for Barker, some for Bryan, some for Mc Klnley, some "not at all; yet;they are all populists . in good--and ;iregular standing in their party. Thi augurs well as-patriots are all independents. I wish to say what I think is . the duty of populists in North Carolina today. Either Bryan or McKinley wilJ-be the next president of the United; States; who do you prefer? If Barker's middle-of-the-roaders had U joined me in my fight rn 1896 for Tom Watson and pure populism there would be today some hope of them revolutionizing our forces but the fates decreed otherwise and now it is the old story xf "too late," so far as our state is concerned. "New occasions teach new -duties." We live under a new dispensation, new era is now the heritage of North Carolinians. As all know the '. funda mental Issue in this state is: Shall we "have a free ballot and a faT count or shall a .democratic machine count ma jorities as ifVills? Until this question is settled it is folly to advocate or con demn other issues as they can count faster than we can vote. If a. major ity of the people should support any proposition at variance with the ma chine there is no certainty as to what result would be announced. Therefore, it is the duty of populists to support any party that will aid us in getting free suffrage, as our very existence is dependent on this. Mr. Bryan is in favor of the domination of the demo cratic machine in this state, as he was of the Goebel machine in Kentucky. He looks to it to roll him up a nice majority in November. Nowhere in all his countless speeches has he con demned the unholy tampering of bal lots in the south. We can expect no aid from him in case of election, but on the other hapd we only strengthen the hands that bind us by supporting him. We kiss the hands that smite us. On the other hand the republican national platform denounces these outrages on a free people and promises us relief, if possible. Mr. McKinley is in full sym pathy with this platform and will try to enforce it. Therefore it is the con- (Continued on fifth page.
