A Mam cannot be a Democrat and
( run for political office on the Republican
ticket.
The world is fall of wonders, the
greatest of which we haye seen lately
is the man who says hexsatiafied
to follow Butler.
Democrats from principle are"
not to be had as catspaws to pull
chestnuts out of the fire for republican
monkeys.
The Times endorsee Mr. Coder's
motion to male the nomination of
Ed Pou unanimous?and the people
will make his election almost unanimous.
~ A True Democrat will never
leave the party, especially after tak
ing part in. conventions and
after running for nomination j
before one of them.
- An independent candidate is usual
ly a republican who is ashamed of
his crowd, and endeavors to retain
. _ some of the respectability of the party
that he has left. ~~ >
President Taft cannot say that
he was not warned of what would
happen if he accepted the counsel of
those reactionary and standpit
statesmen CanDon and Aldrich.
That I.iberian loan appears to
have encounted a kind of American
Monroe doctrine invented by the
French. Must we shoulder "the
white man's burden" in Africa as
well as here ?
W e understand Butler is sending
01 tiers to all the county Republican
orgamzotions in the State demanding
that - full tickets be put out in

Whit the Republicans need is
harmony, and they can't get it What
the Democrats need is cash, and
thev can't get enough to pay office
expenses, while the Republicans
bar. trust money to bnrn.
No thank you, Mr. Butler, we
don't need the money of the bond
syndicate and we have no rotes for
sale. We are not in the trading
business, and if we were, we'd be
afraid to trust you with the goods.
Thky must want office bad when
they run as independent candidates.
?Greenville Reflector.
Right you are, Bro. Whichard,
and especially when they have just
finished a campaign for nomination,
I.
A.nd still another big Republican
? made a speech in Jawnsburg the past
week in which he also failed to explain
to the farmer why the Republicans
had placed the extra tax of
two cents a pound on tobacco. It
looks as if it ib a question they don't
love to talk about.
....
There is** big scandal brewing in
k~ n S J A--J ?
UHHJUDUe bttrvev; the
charge being openly made that the
eoaat anrvev steamer Bacbe "bad
been lepeatedly converted into a
:private yacht by some of the officials"
Tbkt are going to tag lobbyists
in Georgia and compel them to register.
What a bnncb of tags it would
take to fit oat Indian laud and other
lobbyists at Washington. Bat there
is no fear of Congress following the
lead of Georgia.

Senator Heyhuin, of Idatg), objects
to "Dixie." "This i? a Republican
meeting," said he, "we want no
such tunes here." Senator Heyburr
must be a trifle crazy and will end
up at St. Elizabeth Asylu.n.
Sknxtob Ckxnk, or whom President
Taft now seems to learn, voted
with Senator Aldrich with a constancy
that proves that he belong!
to the old reactionary gang. The
Insurgents would give greater heed
to one that is less of a standpatter.
>Vith the Colonel giving out hie
"keynote" on the t3rd inst, and the
President sounding his slogan on
-^September 30th, the air will be
enkxged with politics, and just fancy
what the divided Republicans will
dio if the double keynotes should be
out of tune. x.
Thk Chicago granlljury is after
the meat paokers and has slready
indicted Thomas O. Lee of Armour
it Co., for perjury. The Preskxreport
saye: "more indictments are erv
pected." That grand jury should
have mercy on beef consumers for
the nearer they get to those "higher
np" the higher the price of meat will
be. '*
For a party that eo long professed
to believe in the prinoiple, the Democrats
are displaying an amazing degree
of ignorance as to the meaning
of local self-government.?Greensboro
News.
Oh no, you are mistaken. They
are not fooled or ahowing ignorance.
The Democratic pcrty has neyer
gitvn up the right and principles in
local self-governraent, and as State
proamnion is trie only thing along
this line that the party has received
the least criticism for, and every
man honestly knows the party is not
responsible for it, there is nothing
left for the Republicans under thife
part of their platform but to come
out openly tor whiskey. It is either
that or yon are getting oh the Democratic
platform.
EVEN IF GOD DID NOT HATE A
QUITTER.
It has been well said "God Almighty
bates a quitter." But if this
were not true, now is the best time
in the world kot to quit the Democratic
party.
It is the best time in the world:
1st Not to quit the party of
"Honest Joe Davis" for the party of
"Jeems I. Mcore."
2nd. Not to quit the party of
Judge Connor, who Taft said , was
fit, for the party of Hicks, Timberlake
and Skianer, who Taft said i
were not fit to be Judges.
3rd. Not to quit Kitchin, Glenn
and Aycocke, whose names stand
for aH tnat is high, for Butler, who
is denounced as a thaitok and
pilkirkb by the Republican Organ
in North Carolina, or for Adams,
who Butler says is a villian who
ought not to be allowed to run at
linn - 4th.
NoFto quit the party that
haa made such a fight for all the
people that in the very home ot
Republicanism tens ot thousands of
men are leaving it, and its triumphant
shout has changed to a dying
wail. .
Soldiers of Democracy! In the
hours of darkness and defeat you
put up a great fight. You kept the
sacrtd faith of the fathers. Now
when the day is at hand, when the
shouts of victory are heard all along
the line don't be a quitter. .
t Mr. Cooley's Mistake.
The friends of Mr. R. A. P. Cooley,
of Nashville, regretted yesterday
to read hie card in which he
stated that he would be an independent
candidate for Congress in
the Fourth district. They regretted
it on Mr. Cooley's account reoognia
ing that he had uiken a step that
would do bim no good but muoh
harm. Aside from hie error in taking
a course that can bare no effect
but to enooaraae the Radical nl?

that, in the Democratic Congressic

July 6th, Mr. U. A. P. Cooley,

I ter Mr. Pou had been placed

Mr. Cooley was recognised by t
i chairman and The News and Obse
ver of the next day said:
"Mr. R. A. P. Cooley, of \'aa
ville, moved that the nomination
Mr. Pou be made by h rising vol
The motion prevailed sfad the non
nation was so made."
With the above record Mr. Cool
cannot consistently isk the suppc
of any Democrat in the distri
against Mr. Pou, whose unanimo
re-nomination was made by aoclam
tion with a rising vote on the m
don of Mr. Cooley. Sinoe that da
Mr. Pou has done nothing to wi

SUGGESTED FOR WAKE.
Inasmuch as No Decent' Demi

Crowd is Ready to Fill tfc
Places.
Certain Republicans have bee
moving heaven and earth?(that
a figure of speech, for they have t
connection with heavenly things) since
the first of July two endui
two or three Democrats to run f<
office either as Independents to t
supported by Radicals or to run c
their ticket. None has been fount
That breed of Democrats do n<
I thrive in Wake county. Therefore
politician yesterday suggested tb
following ticket for the consider!
tion of the Rupublican conventio
that is shortly to assemble:
Senator?Claude M. Bernard.
House?James I Moore, W. 1
Barrow, J. C. L. Harris.
Sheriffa-Ham T. Jones.
Clerk?Hill E. King.
Register of Deeds?Alf Powell.
Commissioners?Everett Bank
Thad Ivey, James H. Young.
"That would be,'' said the part
talking, "a real Republican ticke
truly representative of the part;
embracing men of both the Dunca
and Morehead factions. And inai
much as the Republicans are wort
ing on the quiet this year to get or
the negro vote, that race is given
place on the board of commissioner!
