le Randolph Bulletin. PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY. PRICE ONE DOLLAR A YEAR U. S. HAYES, Editor, E. A. WOODDELL, Publisher. Entered as second-class matter June 2nd, 1905, at the post office at Ashe boro, N. C, under the act of Congress of March 3rd 1879. THE BULLETIN. Twelve months ago The Ran dolph Bulletin existed only in the minds of its promoters. To day it is a living: entity, full of life and energy, a real power in the affairs and progress of the county. This issue closes the first year in its history and has been an eventful one rich in experience in many ways. Taken as a whole the Bulletin is a healthy one-year-old child and already has cut a few wisdom teeth and has many more to cut. When the first issue of the Bul letin visited the homes of the people of Randolph, it met a hearty welcome, which it has ever maintained. Beginning with a few hundred readers the first of last June, it now numbers them by thousands. That the Bulletin has made a few7 enemies, we have no doubt, but a newspaper which is too weak to make enemies is not strong enough to make friends. As to our policy in the county, we have advocated those things which we believe to be best for its material progress, financially, educationally, and morally. Polit ically we have upheld the prin ciples of the Republican party and will continue to do so, but without bitterness toward our opponents. We have tried to give every man a square deal and have avoided personalities. The Bulletin, in harmony with every good citizen, has endeav ored to place the progress and development of the county, and the common good of the whole people, above political prejudice : or preferment the progress -the progress of the county first, politics second, is our motto. inanKmg our many inenas for their kind words and finan cial assistance during the firtt year, we hope to make many new acquaintances the coming year, and we promise to keep the standard of excellence even higher in the future than during -selection of fion . - - i, r. Adams, oi ureensooro, as Adams, of Greensboro, chairman of the Republican State executive committee, to succeed Hon. Thos. S. Rollins, resigned, was a wise one and should meet the approval of every Republican in the State. Judge Adams is able, energetic and loyal, and we may expect him to serve the party in a conservative and dig nified manner. We bespeak for him the undivided and hearty support of the whole party. The story that comes from High Point of the killing of young McMillan, a white convict while attempting to escape from the Guilford county chain gang, is shocking indeed. A guard shot him through his vital parts, and he was carried to the hospital where he died in a few hours. Just before he expired he said to the chairman of the county com missioners: "Mr. Ragan, good bye. Treat those boys at camp better. It is hard there and I could not have stood it much longer anyway." This dying statement reveals the true con dition of convict camps. The superintendents and guards usually possess enough brutality to treat the poor unfortunate wretches under them worse than cattle. Convict camps are veri table hell-holes, minus the brim stone. Here is an inviting field for our Society for the preven tion of cruelty to animals. une oi tne encouraging signs of the times is to see scholarly and eucated men breaking the bonds of prejudice and stepping out from old party lines, free men with convictions of their own and the courage to express them. It is said that wise men sometimes change their views, but a fool never does. We have had many striking examples in this State recently of able, cour agious men changing their polit ical views and joining tne oppo site party. It is no longer con sidered a high crime to change ones politics when honestly con vinced that ones former attach ments were wrong. We are glad to see that men are think ing and that after they have ar rived at a conclusion are not afraid to express it!' " MEETING OF THE STATE COMMIT TEE. At a meeting of the Republi can State Executive Committee, at Greensboro last Saturday, Chairman Thomas S. Rollins re signed and ex-Judge Spencer B. Adams was elected to fill out the unexpired term. The committee issued its call for a State conven tion July 10 at Greensboro and unanimously passed these resolu tions: Whereas, The Republican state convention in and for the state of North Carolina has been duly and regularly called to meet in the city of Greensboro, N. C, on the 10th day of July, 1906. And whereas, the state execu- i tive committee of said party in i and for said state, are desirous land anxious to promote the welfare and interest of the Re publican party in North Carolina; Be it therefore resolved : First, that Secretary of War William H. Taft, and Postmaster General Geo. B. Cortelyou be, and they are hereby extended, a cordial invitation to be present at the convening of said state conven tion aforesaid, and at said time 'and place, address the great gathering of Republicans of North Carolina. Second. That these resolutions be, and are hereby unani mously passed by the Repub lican state executive committee this day in session in the city of Greensboro, state of North Caro lina. Third. That the chairman of the Republican state executive committee is hereby requested and authorized to extend in per son the invitation of said com mittee, at which time he is to present to each of the distin guished citizens of the republic a copy of these resolutions. Every delegate to the next State convention should have one object in view and bend every effort to that end the best in terest of the Republican party. No man's personal ambition should cut any figure if it con flicts with the best interest of the party. The tide everywhere is drifting toward Republican- lsm- Let us do nothing to stem it. bneiDy Aurora. Let every republican in the I Stnta mulrA this spntimpnt Vns rule of action. The best inter ests of the party can only be reached by leaving out all selfish ness and self aggrandizment and by earnest, honest efforts help to carry out the great principles of the party as laid down by its f cwrtMers. These great principles si will live to bless manVitol ior "5ages" after the small individuals oring after preferment and posi tion, shall have crumbled into dust and are forgotten. Perfect harmony in the party and a strong pull altogether will even tually bring victory to the repub lican cause in North Carolina. A contemporary says, "Not withstanding the efforts of his enemies to destroy him, W. J. Bryan continues to grow in statesmanship." By what stan dard does our friend measure statesmanship? Wherein has ever Mr. Bryan proved himself a statesman? If pertinaciously holding on to a theory which has been practically demonstrated fallacious, is the right measure for a statesman, then W. J. Bryan meets the requirements. If a statesman is measured by his power to draw a curious, morbid crowd as Barnum's cir cus, then Mr. Bryan fills the bill. He may be "growing," but on two former occasions the voters of the country were content to give him the opportunity to grow larger before they elevated him to the presidency and no doubt they will keep him "growing" a long time before they change their minds. The resignation of Hon. Thos. S. Rollins as Republican State Chairman came as a surprise to many, although it was not un looked for by those who had watched the course of events closely. Mr. Rollins has met his critics squarely and has resigned from his exalted position to pro mote party harmony. Now let those who opposed him sacrifice as much and prove themselves as loyal. This is an opportune time for all differences to be amicably settled and join in a rational and well concerted charge on the ranks of the com mon enemy. The Tennessee Democratic State convention at Nashville Tuesday gave a fine exhibition of democratic harmony with a big H. Chaos and pandemonium reigned supreme and free-for-all fights were common. The police saved the day. The Republican State Conven tion will meet at Greensborn July 10th. PLAN OF ORGANIZATION. Of the Republican Party of North Caro lina. 1 County Organizations.

While in town last Thursday Mr. J. L- Cross, of Silver Hill, showed us a counterfeit $5 gold piece that was very cleverly exe cuted but was of anything else except gold. A small boy found it in a road in Silver Hill town ship. It bore the date of 1843 and the workmanship in every particular was such that had the metal been a little more like gold, it could have hardly been detect ed. As it was, it was but a poor makeshift, being too light and having too much copper about it. When found it was covered over with gilt which soon rubbed off. Lexington Dispatch.

Long before 10 o'clock a vast concourse of people had assembled on the grounds to wit- ness these exercises. Many of the citizens say that the crowd was the largest ever seen here on such an occasion. It was a charming day and the order was exceptionally good for such a large crowd of people, very little drinking or boisterous conduct. rr,, . . There were three contests for gold medals, given by the princi- pal. I he one given to the child - ren was won by little Miss Maggie Biggs; the one to the young ladi the declaimers' medal was won by Mr. D. F. Hulin. The students all did well in their recitations, declamations, songs, etc. , reflecting honor and credit on themselves and teach ers. Hon. John T. Brittain, of Ash- boro, delivered the literary ad - , TT. . dress. His subject was, Ldu - cation from a Financial Stand- tnomt." He showed that not forget to mention the social gathering at night. This was greatly enjoyed by the young people, and older ones, too. The Moffitt String Band furnished music for the com mencemet exercises and social, which added much to the pleas ures of the occasion.
