Although coarleted by you fa la- <

For the peat two yeara a majority <

My statement In Issue of July ? i
or wbfcb you "ooarlct'' me was I
his: "Now Mr. Mayo, I ant one of

Mow lu substance that law ctsea i
all eoet of their maintenance. It j
Ono gives county commissioners the t
privilege to disband the-force. t
Whether I was inconsistent let the j
leaders decide. I admitted that I <
favored the chain gang because of i
oed benefit. I was willing to dla- .
continue them on account of expense. 1
Vhen the means for maintaining
hem Irhn provided other than the i
general county fund I thought the
xmditlons were satisfied. If the i
people are unwilling to bear the cost
>t their maintenance it would prob- ;
ibly be a good idea to demand their ;
withdrawal through the coming county
convention. The' change in the
lyatem of maintaining the roads was
lue to a resolution of the couny conrentlon
two yean ago.
I am willing to abide by the county
convention and am also mindtul
>f tbe advice of those interested In ,
the better government of Beaufort ,

Mlltor made me concerning any query ,
is to how the county home was to

[ think be took it the wrong way. I ,
certainly did not ask him to point
out to me my duty but merely ask?d
him for information beneficial to
the county. 8uch Information I am
slways willing to seek and apply. As
to my presuming to answer in the
name of the whole board for the
conditions ' of affairs I would not
think of assuming such a burden.
I loin with Mr. Fred Latham in
asking the "co-operation of all good
Democrats in the coming convention
irrespective of feuds or factions, to
assist in devising plans to correct
these evils."
Yours truly.

r:people
to succeed himself la tha ?nite.
They figure that no matter how
ible any comvetltor of Senator Simmons
may be that It would be a ridiculous
policy, ruinous In lta effects
Lo supplant him when he has matters
of such rltdl Importance so well in
hand and so near complete accomplishment.
One prominent man ?id
to me that If all the? developments
were not half as Important as they
are he would still vole for Simmons
He declared that to turn Senator
Blmmons out now would be equivalent
to ?ylng tb the rest of the country
that North Carolina didn't care
for such great development as has
been begun; that other states might
take our money and develop them
elves and profit by our taxes and
maybe Induce ?me more of our
bright young men to leave North Carolina
and help to build up other states
on our money and our own blood.
It was suggested to him that some
other man In the senate might keep
the good work ist&rted by Senator
Simmons going. "8how me the record
of the man who Is regarded as his
leading opponent. What has he ever
done to warrant the belief that he
would do anything in the direction
needed? The governor Is not making
this campaign on his own record. It
is the same old cry. that Simmons is
not a good Democrat. That makes
the people in the eastern part of the
state ought. Folks down here remember
that Mr. Kitchen said the same
sort of Mr Craig four years ago; but
is not saying It now. You fellows up
the country may be fooled by that
sort of argument but the people of
the east know that Simmons Is a Dem
ocrat for whom they do not have to
Explain nor apologize. They want hiro
to stay in the senate because he is
doing things that count now and will
count greater in the future.'* And so
it goes down here. Simmons stock- is
high and going up. Enthusiasm is
already bubbling sad a Simmons tidal
wave ia as certain to sweep this
section as that the election will arrive
With inch men as 8jmmons in the
ienate and Small/in the honse we do
not have to beg/for that which belongs
to us. The^s men and their colleagues,
in promoting the inland waterway
and tha harbor of refuge are
merely giving pa, the right to inveat
a part of our funds in improvements
that will help very largely in making
the qtnt* greater.

Special to tbe Dally News.
WASHINGTON. D. C., July 30.Pace
to face with tbe realization the
a Democratic administration is con
ing into control of the governmen
and knowing that this will mean a
end to the tariff protection prlvileg
under which they have plundered th
people for nearly a score of year
the tariff trusts are going to rail
prices again tif.s fall. They are g<
ing to take one final gouge into th
pocketbooks of tbe people befor
they are pushed away from th
troughs of special privilege at whlc
they have grown fat.
The leather trust, which is ownet
for the most part by the beef baroni
baa announced that the price c
leather is to be increased 20 per cent
This increase is attributed to th
greater demand of tbe automobil
manufacturers for leather. This d<
mand is no greater now than it ha
been for the last three or four yeari
and those who are familiar wit!
trade conditions amy the trust's ex
cuae Is only a subterfuge. The 1b
crease will mean another boost in th
price of shoes, which in turn wil
mean that hundreds of thousands, et
pecially women and children who sr
unabld to pay more than they at
now paying, will have to use a cheat
IT fertrtrsrsBoes.
The cloth manufactures?whic!
means the woolen trust?also hav
announced an Increase in prices fo
fall and winter deliveries. The prlc
of wooien cloth, it is announced, i
to go up all the way from 5 to 11
cents a yard. This increase is mad
necessary, the trust managers say, b:
the increased cost of labor, and by ai
alleged shortage of wool, not only ii
this, but in other wool producini
countries as well.
It will be recalled that immediate
ly after the Lawrence, Mass., strik
last winter the wool trust boosted th
prices of its products to meet th
slight increase granted the workers
The mill men and women who hm
been working for $5, *6 and $7
week were given a five per cent in
cerase. which meant only a few ad
ditional cents :o them. And to mee
this increase the wool trust raise
ent to meet the labor Increase, an
to pay for all the losses brough
about by the strike. By sticking o:
this increase the trust's dividend
were not interefered with, and whe
the stockholders came to clip thei
coupons they found that as far as pr
fits were concerned there ^flight juf
as well have be?n no strike.

NEW LAW IS ]
i OK ORE 1
a First Assembly Under New
t Primary Law Meets In Denver
Tomorrow.
~~ '
IIS FEATURES TUT 1
S ARE ATTRACTIVE
r" It Tends to Eliminate Bitter
Struggles For the Nominations.
WW
Special to the Dally News.
DENVER, Colo., July 30.?The
1 first Republican State "Assembly," as
provided for in Colorado's new pri- ,1
' mary law, will meet in this city tomorrow.
The assembly, as constituted
under the primary law, is somee
thing new in American politics.
' While it corresponds in some respects 1
to the old state convention it poesess>_
es other features that are radically
different. The supporters of the new
e plan claim for it that it is in accordance
with the modern trend towards
direct nominations and at the same
time tends to eliminate the bitter
' struggles for the nominations that
frequent vrevailed under the old '
1 system.
The assemblies are formed in the
same way that State conventions
were formed. Each party holds caucuses,
primaries and county conven*
Hons and names delegates to the as*'
sembly. The chief difference between
the convention and the assembly
lies in the provision that the assembly
takes only one ballot on can
anyone receiving 10 per cent of the
total vote in the assembly is entitled
to have his or her name on the pri*
nsary ballot.
^ Allowing UM ftuue iwnblM amy - ^
h person who desires to be a candidate
before the-primaries and who did not
receive the nomination in the assembly
can become a candidate by filing
petitions with the secretary of state
5 requesting that bis name be placed
on the primary ballot of any party to
which he belongs. The names of 300
y resident voters of the state must sign
the petition.
The Colorado primaries this year
K will be held on September 10. Two
weeks later according to the new law
the State and legislative candidates
e will meet with the members of the
State central committees in Denver to
draft the party platforms.
^ Though this will bring the time up
to within six weeks of the date of the
election the law provides still anothJ
er chance for new candidates to get
on the November ballot. According
^ to the law. anyone not satisfied with
the result as obtained by the assem^
biles, the primaries and the sutset
quent platform meetings can got on
the regular ballot through petition
| by securing the same number of sigtantures
that would have been requirn|ed
to get on the September primary
ballot and can certify a platform of
0 his own and make the race independently.
Whichever faction in the Republi
can party is defeated S nthe assembly
tomorrow undoubtedly will take adI
vantages of the provisions of the law
n i above cited to get on the ballot at
}|the November election. The opinion
I prevails that the Taft regulars will be
*<able to control the assembly, sioee
d they have the support of the State
r' organization and won out in the State
n convention.
