With her geographical position, An insult to tne voters on , North Carolina?It is to Your! . J Interest to Read it. We take the following article from the editorial columns of the Raleigh Evening Times of Saturday, September 17th, which will explain itself: For months people over the State ot North Carolina have been led to wonder why the great activity .ot certain persons in the return of the republican party to power. They" have wondered why the pld time fusion stench, Marion jtdAsiY was taking such a hand in North Carolina politics and through nis nmch-, *** men was trying to place men in power whom hg could control when the time came.?The announcement that it would be "Butler, Bonds and Ruin" caused the people to ask wlilk the meaning of all this suddeninterest in the North Carolina eitua tion. As the days go by it becomes plainer eaoh day. that it all means a fight for the return to power ot the remiblican pjjrty in North Carolina andjjitti that 'power that Marion Butler will be in supreme control behind the throne of Morehead and that the "Bondholders" will ther. come into their claims against this State for ten millims and its int-rest of seventeen millions end ibm after that has been mulcted from the people of North Carohnn and any other that can be gotten, th t the State and its people can go to perdition for all they oare. On September the 14th, onlyj - three days ago, there "was issued! from their New York offioes by tllr . , Bondholders (?) an address tu tli'e people of North Caiolina and signed by one Edward L. Andrews as nminsel toy the o rmmittee. This address K'Pn thfl fhtifcfinft nf "North f'arnlina" it purport* to be,, is being selt out broadcast over the Stale and- after reading it carefully it i* very plain jvhat the'ttnusual activity of the old time fusion leader At at ion Butler means. Tliat the bonds repudiated bv North Carolina are _.'oing to be an issue is as plain as can be and if the republicans c mid gel into power / they would find, that Marion Butler was in the saddle an I bad them by the throat and that t'u- ten ^millions and the interns! w is the prize for the ''Uocdh Md-r*" and himaelt. Listen to the rig anient set ,forth by dm ouunitl i_.r in. bondholders to % the pi uple of No'tu Carolina. "To the Citizens of North Carolina: i ' It is so parent to 'the genuine friends f N ii to Carolina that she uiiw possesses an historic opportunity to recover her position among the a 'esnc'd and prosperous com * .

TlmtShe does not occup this position is dfR^Stp Igreat part t the mistaken attitude that she at sunied some veers ago, at ff*m!rio ; of political passion, in r^ferencoH her public,<debt. Dot even the cit: zeus of North Carolina will conced that all the world may not.be in th wrong, and North Carolina alone 1 the right concerning the equities c her bondholders. Therefore we wi: endeavoi to bring North Carolinian and these creditors face to face -t discuss theii respective positions. That is the opening of this "at dress" to the people of North Care Una. In plain language it is th vilest insult ever hurled in the fac effevery citizen of the State. 1 days in veiled language that th time has come for North Carolina t elect republicans to office and the pav these old bonds. . The return < Butler and his henchmen to powl in North Carolina will give the r< suit couched in the last sentenr above. - These holders of these mi lions of fradulent bonds and th ! hyenas with them will face the pei ; pie of the siate and take their lil : blood or ruin the state. After devoting some Bpac* to tl honor of people and of states and n I tions tile committee by its attorne i and Marion Butler says: I , "But there is an inexorable coi dition attached to these benefits.

IIow can a self-respecting r< publican (and believe there at many honorable and honest republ cans from principle) swallow that ir suit to his mauhnojl and his Stat that ho loves. ?It is worse than ol faring a bribe to the men of Nort 'Carolina to vote.

More an more ot such argument is hande oi.f tn the . ili/.fns of North Carotin carrying the insinuation that the must 'Vote for the men who wil handle things so that these bond wilt be paid out of t)ie toil and worl of the people of this State.

This committee lias alwa\^ favored the Oonoifltatlnn of all g e the overdue coupons on these bonda ? j ?amounting to seventeen millions f, of dollars (tlT^OO.OOO.f This ptoposition should afford at least i basis g ^ for negotiation of settlement. Upon ( Wie failure of such negotiation, that j amount would be transferred to the absofiit^kwnership of a government I "Uiwhoee hands the entire sum would ' be cMteciible.

Moreover, even after thatcollection the .bondholders would 8 , still remain in possession of the full ^ amount of the principal debt. Ten c millions of dollars ($10,000,000.) In Ihon by adopting a hostile course, North' Carolina would be nearly treblinjj'lier liability. 8 North Carolina may now elect for 8 ' the alternative course. By assessing j her equality with any of her sister Slates in sensitiveness to right and wrong she will at once receive the benefits of her course. Her credits I tors stand ready upon their reinstatement to furnish the funds need10 ed by the State tor any proper pur* pose, for the benefit of her enterprises or her citizens." There, gentlemen ?>f North Caroa lina, citizens of a sovereign state; is the insult hurled ioto your homes' and at your feel.' That is by ^ anp <S>f tbe_clas8 of men with whom |e President Taft is going to reform ^ the south, and with which he hopes to carry this slate republican in Noveraber. That is a specimen of the man he offers to thespeople' of North Carolina as a reformation in the way of politics.

Yet that is a sample of the politics that is going to dominate the republican party in North Carolina if it 8 should "oome back." That is what ;e [j "Butlerism" has to offer to the white Q manhood of North Carolina That Jt it is going to be repudiated and burj ied forever by the people of this state is an assured facu Honorable men 0 are not going to stand fojsuoh melh- * |0 ods.
