Douglas, who was nominated for corporation commissioner by acclamation at the Republican State convention held at Greensboro July 10th, 1906, has written an open letter to the people of North Carolina which we take pleasure ing before our readers. compelled to print a supplement containing this address, together with other matter omitted from the regular issue for want of space. Every reader of the Bul letin should study this address carefully, as it contains much information of general interest to the public. As the joint canvass progress es, it becomes more and more evident that this time-honored institution should be cut out discontinue.! relegated to the rear. Several of the candidates have been unable to follow up the appointments on account of the sickness of themselves or families, others are put to a great deal of inconvenience and all who have weathered the storm and met their engage ments have done so at the peril of their health. It is doubtful whether the entire canvass will change a dozen votes. Cut it out. Did Republican commissioners ever pay interest on Randolph County orders? Never! Did Re publican commissioners ever have a judgment recorded against Randolph County; Never! ! Did the Democratic commissioners ever have judgments recorded acair.st them, if so, for how much? Yes, judgments to the amount of $4859.15 were record ed against democratic commiss iioners and 83862.62 of this ' amount was paid by Republican commissioners. The democrats are going be fore the people on their record. They are boasting on the stump and through their newspaper organ that county orders were always worth face democratic boards sioners.

(The interest in various sums had been paid before.) 1 -in ov r ihy 4th, It is a pleasure to note that so far, no personal bitterness has been engendered in the cam paign in Randolph. This is as it should be. Men who claim the right to think and act for them selves, should allow other people to do likewise. North Carolina is enjoying the greatest era of material prosper ity in her history not by reason of a democratic state administra tion, but in sympathy with, and by reason of 'the great wave of prosperity which followed im mediately after the republicans under McKinley took charge oi the national administration.

Last payment on above judgment was made November 14, 1900 And now they say that cotton sold at a iigher price under Cleveland's administration than under McKinley. The next boast of the democrats will be that soup under the last Cleveland administration become so thin in quality and high in price that none but Coxey army soldiers could afford that luxury on their tables the plutocrats and trust magnates had to be content with just plain, sherry or old Porte. They have tried to enthuse 'em, but they wont enthuse. First, they tried Simmons pud ding, then Page pumpkin seed pie, and then Sams salad, and still they woulc " - "-use, and now they are g .,... Over man barbecued i.eer, Pou (Pue) mutton, and repeat Page pump kin seed pie, and if that don't enthuse 'em, the next prescrip tion will be a hyperdermic in jection of nigger soup by Dr. Glenn, and last but not least, the never-failing remedy, a plaster of "long green" applied to the tender conscience of the "floater." value under of commis who believe turn to the 1896 and ex 2146, drawn nd order No. 2346, drawn July 6. The first is an order for $144.00 allowed for two years interest on county orders to the amount of $1200, and the second is an order for $138.30, balance of interest on county orders to the amount of $2700. This money was taken from the tax payer and paid by a demo cratic board of commissioners to one of its members. Did repub lican commissioners ever con duct county affairs in this way? "Make Marion Butler the issue," comes the order from Simmons to democratic speakers and newspapers, and accordingly thousands of sheets of abuse are turned out daily and weekly by the press and the spell-binders vie with each other in seeing who can coin the greatest num ber and most abusive epithets and hurl them against this man whom they have set out to de- troy. Meanwhile Butler is calm and serene and never misses an opportunity to deal the democrat ic party the hard blows which he alone is capable of administer ing. Butler has been so soundly abused by the Simmons gang that he is growing in favor every day. Why should any one vote for Burrow and English in prefer ence to Wood and Foushee? Both Burrow and English 'were formerly Democrats and said meaner things about the Repub licans than were ever said by either Wood or Foushee. Ash eboro Courier. The fact that Burrows and English were formerly demo crats and forsook that kaleido scopic party and joined the party of progress and fixed principles is one very great reason why the voters should support them at the polls. Pro gressive, intelliegent men change when they know they are in error. Men of deep seated prej udice, fools and dotes never change. Another great reason for sending Burrows and English to the legislature is the eminent fitness of the men for the office. In this case the office sought the men. Four Years of Republican Administra tion as Compared to Four Years of Democratic Administration UNDER REPUBLICAN COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. Who paid $282.30 interest on Randolph County orders to the amount of $3900? Democratic, commissioners. When did this occur? In May and July 1896. To whom was this interest paid? To a member of the same demo cratic board which paid the orders. The Autumn leaves and fall crop of candidates will ripen about the same time. If you are a republican, you have to run after the registrar before you can register your name. If you are a democrat, the registrar will run after you to get you to register. What has R. N. Page done during his four years in congress? He has drawn $20,000 and mile age from the United States gov ernment and, and words fail us to express the rest. Register today.

Frazier and the clerk: They find Randolph county's indebtedness Dec. 3, 1894 was $11,302.70. I, J. T. Winslow, Clerk of the Board of County Commission ers, certify that the above statement is true. This Oct. 15th, 1898. J. T. WINSLOW, Clerk. Seal of Randolph county commissioners. Mr. J. W. Bailey, another "good" Democrat seems to "feel sick at his "stumick.,, So much crow apparently hasn't agreed with his digestive organs. In his paper, the Biblical Recorder, he says: "The South that stood united on the money question will not so stand on the government own ership question. These seven years the Southern people have increased in political indepen dence. They will not suffer another paramount issue or divine ratio, for which they have no stomach, to be rammed down their throats in the name of party fealty or any other name, The leaders of the Democratic party in the nation who are they? Tom Taggart gambler! He is the national-chairman, and the fact is eloquent of the low estate of the party in the nation, and humble influence of the South m the party. Other leaders are Murphy, New York, barkeeper and tough: Hearst of New York, degenerate demagog; Bryan, the radical; Tom Johson, idealist; Ryan and Belmont, Wall street manipulators! It is time somebody was taking a hand! And what is the South made of that she should stand aside for such as these; should acquiesce while these lead her into all manner of absurd policies; should consent while these, impotent to command support in their own states, assume to direct the destinies of a great political party the historic instrument of popular crovernment in the New World? What is the South made of that she should become responsible for the follies of this aggregation, should suffer this galaxy of political curiosities, to offer in her name a series of political policies that bear all the marks of their mongrel origin? And we have to say, more over, that it is time some one were saying, "Yes, and you have to carry the South, too." The South has wandered in the wilderness forty years. She has followed Moses and she has followed Aaron; and in their absence she has worshipped golden calves and worse. But the South has reached a point where she cannot be counted upon to acquiesce to efface her self, to accept anything; to follow any leaders; to support any policy To accept Mr. Bryan's new propaganda of paternalism or Mr. Hearst's socialism) or to supinely accept whatever the Taggarts and Murphys prepare for us is to deserve ruin, is to welcome ruin, is to forfeit self respect, is to invite men with blood in their veins to walk out. And they will.-Graham Tribune. STOP! LOOK! LISTEN! ECONOMY ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE OF THE LEDGER. The Republicon party and the members composing it are in clined to a spirit of fairness to ward a political enemy never strike below the belt or thrust a man when he is down. This spirit of fairness was exemplified by Prof. N. C. English at Farm er last week when he would not consent to take part in the joint debate because his opponent, Col. Wood, was not present to defend himself. This spirit of magnanimity on the part of Prof. English is commendable indeed. But mark how his political foe returned evil for good. Last Monday Prof. English could not be present at the appointment in Union township, and it would have been an act of common courtesy for his opponent not to join in the discussions. Did he return the courtesy? Not a bit of it. The representative of Col. Wood, who was none other than J. M. Way, (Supt. of public in struction) went right on and made his speech, Way and Fou shee consuming 50 minutes and gave Burrow only 25 minutes. Was this fair treatment? rne ioiiowmg ngures snow tne canerence m tne cost oi run ning the State Goverment under a Republican Administration and under a Democratic Administration.

Appeal to the People of North Carolina to Erect Heroic Bronze Statue to Perpetuate His Memoay. To the People of North Carolina: Dr. Charles D. Mclver devoted his life to the services of his people. No man of our day has rendered greater and more last ing service. Moved by love of his people and consciousness of his mission and duty, at great financial sacrifice, he rejected tempting offers from time to time to leave the State and to enter the commercial world at home. His life stands out perhaps the highest ideal in this generation of North Carolinians of unselfish civic service. We believe that the people, whom he served in so many ways with so much fidelity ability and love, will deem it a privilege and an honor to con tribute to a fund for the erect ion of an heroic bronze statue to perpetuate his memory. The undersigned committee, there fore, appointed by the governor of the State, earnestly appeals to every citizen of North Caro lina, who loves his State, and honors unselfish service, to send at once a liberal contribution for this memorial. The statue should be worthy of the man and his people. It is hoped, therefore, that at least $15,000 may be contributed. Fifty men and women in North Caro lina could easily contribute $100 each; one hundred men and women $50 each; two hundred men and women $25 each; two hundred men and women $10 each, and a host of men and momen will, we believe, gladly contribute smaller amounts. Let all express their gratitude for unselfish service rendered by a contribution to this worthy cause. The committee will make every effort to raise the funds within the next thirty or sixty days. Let the responses be prompt. Send all contributions and pledges to J. Y. Joyner, Chair man, Raleigh, N. C. J. Y. Joyner Chairman; W. H. Osborne, Josephus Daniels, F. P. Venable, Miss Gertrude Menden hall, Mrs. J. Lindsay Patterson. All newspapers in North Caro lina are requested to copy the above appeal.

The Auditor's report shows that the expenses of the State last year were $2,563,018.80 and our receipts for the same year only $2,509,896.30, Showing that they spent $53,122.50 more than was received, Lawlessness Under Democratic Rule. The democratic papers and democratic speakers are contin ually congratulating the people" upon the "reign of law and order" in this State under their rule. They are saying this to keep the people from believing that crimes are on the increase under their rule. During the past ten days there have been eleven homicides in this State, and this does not include the number of shooting scrapes, robberies and various other crimes that have been committed dvring the past ten days. And the past ten days are not excep tional -for crimes under demo cratic rnle, for some weeks their crime record is even worse, There has never been as much lawlessness in tnis state since Reconstruction days as there is today under democratic "good i . i government witn tne excep tion of the lawlessness perpetra tea by democratic rettsnirts in 1898 and 1900 in the name of democracy. They sowed the seeds of lawlessness then and now they are reaping the whirl wina, notwithstanding they are trying to shift the wind to some one else. They are responsible and they must bear the blame The leaders of the democratic machine got their offices by means of lawlessness. Caucas ion. Danger From The Plague.
