STEWART Ed- a JPttl SaxisbubN: C M AR7t h , 1907 Published Brir: Wednesday at 120 ' Wst inalis street- vV Subscription Price $1 per rear tdet&' cash la ad ranee -jr"5" --rVw . Entered as second-class matter Jaa. lflth. 1905, at th port ofiee at Salia- bnrr. N. C under tb act ot Congv&n of March 8rd. lift. : ? ; T. H Vanderfbrd has been get ting in some telling blows lately. His last circular lelter was a warm number. Are there any matters pertain ing to the city's welfare which could not be, managed by any honest man of good business abil ity? . The lust for office is a queer thing when it gets hold of a man's system, and when it gets such a strong hold that the man believes ha owns the office, it may be termed a disease. From the talk one some times hears, he would f eel constrained to wonder what would become of Salisbury if our present mayor should be gathered to the bosom .of his fathers, provided he did not know him. No one is iu a position to assert that this or that particular can didate will win at the primaries. But it is certain that Mr. Vander f ord and his friends are becoming more confident as .to the result, and there is reason for this feeling- v Only recently we were reading large scare heads about the great and now one of them is $68,000 short owing to an embezzling cashier by the name of Jones. If this is taken into consideration in making the next reports the surplus and dividends we fear will be somewhat reduced. Mr. Jones should have had more cwic pride. Some one says that we will have a second primary in order to se lect a candidate for mayor, be cause at the first primary neither cadidate will be lucky enough to secure a majority of all tha votes cast. This may be a correct viev? but we question it. There is a strong Vanderford sentiment ex isting in every ward of the city, and this -sentiment is growing everyday, When this sentiment fiuds expression at the primaries in votes, there may lea surprise for some of the candidates. Those who have read the com munications of Mr. Vanderford, with reference to sundry irregu larities in the management of our municipal afiairs. will remember that he has stated time and again that he stood ready to prove every statement he made. He has uotj been called upon for proof, nor have any of"his charges been de nied. He has made some charges which should be disproved if they are not true, but not a word has been heard from the other side. What does silence under the cir cumstances usually mean? During the past few days a num ber of campaign buttons have made their appearance, and nu merous citizens have ornamented the lapels of their coats with the :. These - buttons v bear the likeness of Mr. Vanderf3rd's prin cipaL opponent, with the words, " Everybody's Friend, A. H. Boy den." It is quite good for one to be known as the friend of every body, but there is something far better, and that is to be known as the friend of justiceand fair dealing; to be known as an advo cate of equal privileges to all men under the law, and the opK nent of any and all things which savor of oppression, iyranny and a studied iadifferenoe to the rights of others. thoroughly undsr.tand nd j-appreciate the factfctatr angfeat -many men w.ill support a -candi r ttatelqr an bffice notion ; account jbfrbJs fitness for the positiouY hut merely-because of a friendlyf eel iug or- rjereonaLlikJnjsf for thinsan d ideate. kvWhile" a. foal iugtf loyalty to Tone'sfriens .is-highly xjoui - m'eqda bl e, , yet - in - some cases - it may be carried beyoiid'reason able! limits'. So long as it is a personal flatter between a man and bis friend, this loyal spirit is all fight, but it should not be allowed t o be a controlling element : when it comes to a matter. in which the public has an interest. In " other words citizens ought not to en deayor to place - men in office merely because those men happen to be their friends. We all have warm personal friends .we would like toaid in anyc;way we could but we would hardly take the po sition that the fact that a man is our friend necessarily makes him a proper man to place in office: Private, personal feelings are all very well in their place, but that place is not in those matters which vitally affect the public good, - When we select a man to fill an office of responsibility and trust, , the selection should be made on grounds of ability, judg ment, honesty, capacity, and not from personal bias or prejudice. Often one hears a man say, sueh and such a candidate is a good fellow, he is my personal friend and I'll support him. One evi dently has a peculiar conception of the duties of citizenship who would support a candidate solely on such a ground as this. If we do our duty as citizens -we will not vote for any mah simply be cause hes our friend, nor will we oppose him just because we hap pen to have a feeling of personal dislike for him. - Whether he is our friend or not, if he possesses the qualifications a public official should possess, lie is the man for whom we ought to vote. It is certainly no discredit to a man that he possesses friends, neitbVr should it be taken as proof that he is the person in whom to repose public trust and confidence. Wfc ought to consider these things" carefully and conscientiously, and let our judgment rather than our feelings guide us when we cast our votes. We all desire the best for our city, and wnen we vote at the primaries let us place our love for the best interests of Salisbury above every other consideration. The Minister's Side of it. The Salisbury correspondent of the Charlotte Observer says, un der date ot the 26th: "Rev. W,.R. Hutchins, of New London, a well known young min ister of that place, was here this morning and gave his side to a sensational event in which be fig ured last week. Mr. Hutchins de clared he had no desire to see the matter in print, hut that if it came out, he wished a candid statement would be made. The matter having reached the public prints, his side is in order. Mr. Hutchins says he and Henry S Trott have not been on the best terms, their difference arising over matters of theology, in which they are far apart". Last" week Mr Hutchins was a witness in a case, testifying to a State of facts that the free-thinker dendunced as d u lies. Wnen they met Mr Hutchins told Mr, JTrott that he had a natural impulsj to resent such talk, but restrained himself . Latar Mr Hutchins declares that Mr. Trott called him a vile name, adding to it an oath and then he struck the" lumber dealer. The impact knocked hieTarm out of place and this, he says, is all there is to it. There was no ef fort on the part of Mr Trott to pursue him. Mr. Hutchins adr mits having knocked the layman down. The people of New Lon don have willingly offered to re fund the small fine of $2.95 im posed upon their minister and he has asked that the conference in vestigate the matter if it thinks he has done wrong. His church people do not expect any action to be taken, the young man stand ing high in the conference and being a preacher of fine ability," I 0U HONOH ROlLr And still the: Nanes Come ia.
