Very Much Enjoyed by a Fair
Sized Audience Col. Slocomb
Scholarly andSarcastic but Un
convincingThe Crowd With
Mr. Godwin, Who Was Hap
py in His Remarks.
Owing to lack of space in
Thursday's paper it was neces
sary to postpone an account of
the debate in the Lumberton
Opera House Wednesday evening
between Congressman H. L.
Godwin and his Republican op.
ponent, Col. A. H. Slocomb. The
crowd was only so-so, and its a
pity it was not larger, for the
debate was very interesting,
t i l i i .
Darnng a nttie teaiousness in
Mr. Slocomb's opening speech
However, the debate, on the
whole, was enjoyed very much
A joint discussion gets the
boys interested and enthused
more than anything else. If
you want to get the crowds the
way to do it every time is to
have two good speakers digging
at each other and tearing each
otner s arguments ail to pieces
right before you. But to the
speaking.
Mr. R. D. Caldwell, president
of the Bryan-Kitchin Democratic
Club, presided and he announced
in assuming the chair that the
candidates would speak an hour
each, Col. Slocomb speaking
first, and then there would be
few minutes allowed for rejoin
der. Dr. R. M. Norment, whose
appearance on the stump in the
days when he was a power in the
land was always a promise that
there would be something doing.
introduced Col. Slocomb. Dr
Norrent was full to the brim
and running over with argu
ments for and defense of it
needs so much defense the Re
publican party, and he enter
tained the audience for severa
minutes. Me said that he was
glad to hear a joint discussion
that he would be ashamed to
vote without considering and
posting himself on both sides of
any question. So he reads, he
said, both Democratic and Re
publican papers more Democrat
ic than Republican, in fact and
he was sorry to see the other
day in The Charlotte Observer,
good Democratic paper, an arti
cle copied from The Concord
Times charging that the Repub
licans stole the echool fund. He
said that the charge was not
true; that the Republicans never
stole any school funds but bor
rowed and paid interest. He
dwelt upon the record of the
party back in the days that few
Republicans like to refer to
claimed for his party many of
the blessings which we now en
joy, and urged that it was wor
thy of support. He declared that
bad as it was the Legislature of
1868 would compare favorably
with the last Democratic Legis
lature. He said that Governor
Glenn's action in accepting the
money to pay the court costs
when the special session of Leg
islature was assembled bore all
the marks of a conspiracy, and
that Gov. Glenn's advocacy of
prohibition was nothing more
than a political move to become
the leader of his party in the
State. And more along the
same line did Dr. Norment sub
mit and then in a few compli
mentary remarks he introduced
Col. Slocomb.
Col. Slocomb began with a few
complimentary remarks about
Lumberton, which he has visited
often, and Robeson county, com
plimented Lumberton's graded
school, which lead gracefully up
to saying that he had a right to
consider himself the father of
the graded school system of the
State, this title being his by rea
son of the tact that he drew up
a school system for Fayetteville
which has spread all over the
State. He said that he had not
devoted much time to discussion
of State issues, because he
thought that rightfully belonged
to the candidates for the State
Legislature and that he and his
opponent ought to discuss na
tional issues. But he could not
get Mr. Godwin, he said, to dis
cuss national issues. He declared
that Mr. Godwin was making the
same old speech he made back in
1900 and that he still thought he
was running for the Legislature.
It required courage, he said, to
face this Goliath, but he remem
bered howDavid of old smote his
giant adversary with stones from
the brook, and he hoped with a few
smooth stones of truth from the
sling of logic to bring down his
opponent.
Col. Slocomb said that he came
to this Slate in 1868 to engage in
the distilling business, and then
he got down to his knitting. He
saw no use in discussing the ne
gro question. Democrats, he

charged, had had negros on
their tickets, had had negro
magistrats.and school commttee-
men, and he rejoiced in the con
stitutional amendment. Jeffer
son was a protectionist and ex
pansionist and believed in local
self government, which Demo
crats of the present day have
abandoned in fact, he said,
Jefferson would be ashamed of
the party if he could come to
earth again. Touching: upon the
tariff, he said that the Repub-
ican policy was to revise along
pretective lines, while Demo
crats want a tariff for revenue
only. He made the absurd and
often-exploded charge that-the
Wilson-Gorman bill brought on
the panic of 1893. because, while
it did not go into effect until
after the panic had been on for
more than a year, the committee
that framed it was working on
it for many months and the
country knew something was
going to drop. He said that the
tariff only equals the difference
in the cost of labor here and
abroad, which was misleading,
Decause every intelligent man
knows that it is four and five
times as much as that difference
and is levied without any re
gard to fairness or justice. He
said overproduction was the
cause of the panic. Mr. Bryan's
policies, declared the speaker,
are insane, but he failed to make
it very clear just how they are
insane. He charged Mr. Bryan
with condemning the President's
action in the Brownsville affair.
He compared Mr. Taft with Mr.
Bryan, declared that Mr. Taft is
a much greater man than Presi
dent Roosevelt, and said he
wanted to see North Carolina
add her electoral votes to the
280 votes he predicts Mr. Taft
will have.
When Mr. Kitchin spoke here
he referred intentionally to Mr.
Taft as T. R. Taft, but it was
quite by accident that Col. Slo
comb referred to "William H.
Roosevelt." Amid the laughter
the slip provoked Col. Slocomb
said that of course anybody was
liable to make a slip of the tongue.
To be sure. Maybe, though, in
that instance it was due to the
fact that Mr. Taft is so swallow
ed up in President Roosevelt and
the mention of Mr. Taft brings
Mr. Roosevelt so prominently to
mind that one cannot disassociate
the two.
Col. Slocomb is a highly-edu
cated and scholarly gentleman.
but, when all is said, there was
nothing at all in his speech to
convince a man that he is on the
right side. His sarcasm was de
lightful, though, and - on the
whole his speech was all right.
In introducing Congressman
Godwin Mr. R. D. Caldwell spoke
of his splendid work in Congress
and said that he had done more
ii it. .
ana naa oDtamea more than any
other man this district has sent
to Congress.
Mr. Godwin started out with
pleasant reference to his oppo
nent and said that he did not
knw whether he was called up
on to reply to both the speakers
who had preceded him or not,
Col. Slocomb he declared to be the
best there is of the Republican
party in this district, and that
having heard him one had heard
all there is to that party. Col
Slocomb repudiates the Republi
can record in the state and says
that he is the candidate of the
national Republican party for
Congress. Col. Slocomb had said
that the audience beheld in him
a man who had never sought of
fice, or had never been a candi
date for a nomination, and Mr.
Godwin told how the colonel had
been a candidate for Congress be
fore; had been a candidate for
collector of the port of customs
at Wilmington, and had been a
candidate tor commissioner in
Cumberland county, having met
defeat every time, as he is sure
to do this time. He had never
heard of negroes appointed to
office by Democrats, but Repub
licans never lost an opportunity
to appoint negroes.
Mr. Godwin showed that the
McKinley Republican tariff bill
was responsible for the panic of
1893, and not the Wilson-Gorman
bill, as Col. Slocomb had charged,
and he declared that the present
panic, which was the worst ever
known he cited lumber as a
special instance came upon the
country after the Republicans
had been in power 12 years. It
came on the 28th of October,
1907, and the Republicans prom
ised immediate relief, but they
did nothing for months, and then
finally passed a bill that is
against the best interest of the
South. If the Republicans were
in earnest about the revision of
the tariff they could have revised
it while Congress was m session.
Every Democrat in Congress
signed a petition to remove the
tanfr on wood pulp, but a Repub
lican Congress did nothing.
The speaker said he invited go
ing back to the record of the Re
publican party in the State. The
Democrats promise a continuance
of good government, but Col.
Slocomb would not promise to
vote for the Republican nominee
for Governor if he knew Mr.
Cox would give the same kind of
government Russell gave. In
I860, when the State was pros
trate and needed something, the
Republicans increased the State
debt from $15, 000, 000 to $40, 000,
000 Increased it under the guise
of internal improvements, but
they built not a line of railroad.
They closed the doors of the
State University and collected
$169,000 for education but did
not spend dollar that year for
education. From '68 to '70 they
collected $370,000 for education
and spent only $38,000 for that
purpose; they disfranchised 30,
000 of the best people in the
State, carried the ballot boxes to
South Carolina to count the votes,
and brought humiliation and
shame upon the State. They
did nothing for the protection of
the insane. Now they profess
great love for the old Confeder
ate soldier, but when in power
they did nothing for him. He
declared that the Republican par
ty has always been the enemy of
the South and that it wanted to
reduce Southern representation
in Congress.
During his speech Mr. Godwin
told several jokes that were
apropos and that were thorough-
y enjoyed. He was altogether
happy in his remarks all the way
through.
In his rejoinder Col. Slocomb
said that he would not vote for
Mr. Cox if he knew he would re
peat Gov. Russell's record, which
statement was greeted with ap
plause; but he said Mr. Cox was
clean, able man who would
make a good Governor. He cor
rected Mr. Godwin about his
seeking office, saying that he had
never been a candidate for a
nomination. It would ruin the
South to remove th duty on lum
ber, Col. Slocomb said, andMr. God
win pointed out later that Presi
dent Roosevelt had sent too mes
sages to Congress asking Con
gress to remove the tariff on all
orest products. The Republican
party, declared Col. Slocomb, is
not an enemy to the South, and
there has been no legislation
against the South since 1876.
Mr. Godwin wound up his re
joinder by reading a bill of sale
which he declared the Republican
party will have in Washington
on the 4th of March next, when
it will go out of business and
sell an elephant, a big stick, and
other things belonging to the
party.
ihe joint discussion was very
much enjoyed. There was no
mud slinging. Col. Slocomb and
Mr. Godwin are having a good
time. They say they have been
treated with uniform courtesy
everywhere. Col. Slocomb says
he wants it told how much more
generous he is than Mr. God-
wm. He is willing to agree for
the winning candidate to bear
all the expense of a pleasure
trip for both after the election,
but Mr. Godwin will not agree.
Mr. Godwin says, however, that
he is going to take Col. Slocomb
with him to Washington next
March.

Another effort on the part of
the Republicans to use the ma
chinery of the government in
furthering their political activi
ties has come to light with the
admission by many old soldiers
drawing pensions for their ser
vices that they have received
along with their pension money,
in envelopes under the frank of
the Pension Bureau, Republican
literature urging them to vote
for Mr. Taft. This latest scheme
or the Kepubiicans ingenious as
it is, with its direct appeal to
the financial interests of the old
pensioners is taken to mean
here that the managers of the
Republican campaign are thor
oughly alarmed and that any
step that promises an additional
vote in the doubtful States will
be taken, regardless of the risk
involved. What that risk is in
the present case is easily esti
mated by one familiar with the
franking regulations of our
mails.
The penalty attached to the
private use of any government
frank is $300 and this fine in the
case of franked envelopes used
for campaign purposes is raised
to $500, while in particularly
aggravated cases imprisoment is
added. At the same time, the
very nature ol the ottense puts
the pension officials directly at
the mercy of the old soldiers to
whom they send the appeals.
In the present case the appeal j
was put to them strongly. Itj
wras alleged with subtle argu-1
ment that the pension is the na-!
tural child of the Republican
party and that a Democratic ad
ministration would probably
mean a reduction in the pensions
of every one on the rolls. Many
old soldiers have already told the
nature of the communications
they have received.
