THE LET- KITCHIN CLUB'S TER. In a communication which ap- ripflrs elsewhere in this paper from the Kitchin Club you will observe that this club, at its f.rst meeting, passed a resolution in which it censures The Robe soniun for publishing articles against Mr. Kitchin and none in Vim tnvf.r. I)ok you, now, neighbor, you who love fair play we will spread all the cards on ihfl table, face up, and you shall be the judge: Many of the ..:i,o wo Vmvp nublished in 11 lit ' ' - ' favor of Mr. Craig were publish ed at the request of Mr. Craig's f..;0Aa Whv did not the friends f Mr. Kitchin come to The Rob psonian with a request to publish sinv article they wanted publish Pif The only time any Kitchin supporter has come to the editor of this paper with such a request the article was published freely and willingly. It is simply and solely their own fault. Thatclu is composed of intelligent men who usually ask for what they want. One of them asked that a certain article in Mr. Kithin favor be published and his re quest was granted as a matter of course; and that was betore tnis club meeting, too, and they might have found that out before pass im tVit.ii- resolution some of them, at least did know it even then. They slept on their rights, did not write anything or, ex cept in this instance cited, ask The Robesonian to publish any thing, and yet they disapprove of the method adopted by this paper, which has made no bones at all over letting everybody know it thought Mr. Craig should re ceive the nomination; and they think the editor should have nosed around and hunted up and published articles in favor of Mr. Kitchin when they, mind you, were not asking him to do it. The Robesonian has been asked "to publish more special articles in regard to Mr. Craig than it has been able to find room for, and some of them it has been compell ed to refuse to publish, and yet the KitchinClub thinks we should have published articles that his supporters did not ask us to pub lish! It is a funny world, my masters. Did they expect the editor of The Robesonian to go to them and ask them to write something for Mr. Kitchin or to pick out something they would like for him to publish? They are mad with themselves, it seems, for laying down on their rights, and now they want to take it out on The Robesonian with a resolution! Honestly, now, don't you think that well, what do you think of it, anyway? They ask if Mr. Craig is not tired of explaining he was once a Republican, and they ask you to "think of a man wanting to be Governor who voted the Dr, Norment ticket inl884 against the Col. Alfred Rowland ticket. That is very misleading. They know Mr. Craig voted for only one Republican, Mr. Blaine, and that he supported all of the bal ance of the Democratic ticket, and so they know he was never a Republican. Mr. Craig has gone into Mr. Kitchin's district every election year these past twelve years and helped to send Mr. Kitchin to Congress, and it does not look very well for Mr. Kitchin and his supporters to be harping on the one and only vote Mr. Craig ever cast for a Republican, especially since nearly a quarter of century of faithful party service has wiped the memory of that single error 0'it of the mind of every man who loves fair play: it does not weigh as heavy as a hair in the estimation of the majority of the members of this club. They passed a reslution, too, disapproving the action of Sena tor Simmons in advocating the nomination of Mr. Craig. In 189 1, when he was a member of C .ngress, Mr. Kitchin came out A matter which escaped at tention because it did not appear in the regular minutes of the commissioners is the fact that at he regular monthly meeting of tie county commissioners in May Sheriff E. C. McNeill notified the commissioners that all his re bates, errors, insolvent taxes and and sales having been allowed, he was ready to make a complete settlement of allState and county property and poll taxes, and ask ed the commissioners to go over his vouchers and other papers and make settlement with him. We are advised that the records will show that no other sheriff has ever made a settlement as early as this, no settlement hav ing been made heretofore before the first Monday in September. This is another indication of the fact that in Sheriff McNeill Robeson county has an officer who is alive to the responsibili ties of his position and is looking out for the best interests of the people. Candidate Kitchin and his friends are strange people. In 1898 he, then a member of Con gress, felt it pertectly allowable for him to come out in open op position to the election of Mr. Simmons to the Senate, and it was. Now, however, when Mr. Simmons avails himself of the same right of a citizen and de clares against him for Governor, he and his mends think it out rageous and split the air with lamentations and protests. Charlotte Observer. Another bunch of hot air of Mr. Kitchin and his friends punctured. Every time Mr. Kitchin lifts up his voice to moan about something somebody gently points out that Mr. Kitchin did the same, or worse, and then Mr. Kitchin switches around and tries to make it appear that he is being persecuted for doing the same thing somebody else did. Ain't it a sight? From the accounts given in The Messenger and The Sun of Mr. Kitchin's recent speeches at Fairmont and Rowland it appears that Mr. Kitchin spent a good deal of his time in denouncing Mr. Craig and others. The Sun asks its readers to remember that Mr. Kitchin is not a martyr at all, but simply a politician seeking office ;and The Messenger says that if when you vote you have the best interests of your State in your mind's eye Locke Craig will be the next Governor. Mr. Kitchin's strictures of those who oppose him did not seem to win people to him at Fairmont and Rowland. Resignation of Supt.
