The retiring treasurer of the
democratic national executive
committee should change his
name from Haskell to Hasbeen.
A vote for Taft and Cox is a
vote for restored prosperity. A
vote for Bryan and Kitchin is a
vote to clog the wheels of pro
gress. The New York Herald fore
casts the election of Taft and
Sherman. The Herald's fore
casts have held good for the last
fifty years.
As the democratic candidates
are making such high claims for
the financial condition of the
county treasury, the people
would like to have a statement
from the county's finance com
mittee (if it has such a commit
tee)
.
Treasurer Newby. it is said
is telling the voters that hal
enough money is now in the
treasury to pay for the new
court house. Suppose that is
true (but we don't believe it is
where is the other half to come
from without extra tax or issu
ing bonds?
Last week marked the formal
opening of the campaign in Ran
dolph county. rom now unui
election day Nov. 3, the voters
will be appealed to from every
stump" in the county. , The
joint canvass custom has been
abandoned and each party will
prosecute the campaign as seems
hest to itself.
Every democrat dwelling at
the county seat and who is able
to work a hot air pump in accord
with the views of the Boss is be
ing pressed into service and gas
bags from Montgomery and sur
rounding counties will, be brought
in to tell the deed "pee-pil" how
to perpetuate the control of the
democratic machine in the coun
ty. In the mean time the Re
publican legislative and county
candidates are going about in
structing the people and leading
them into the light. When once
the people see clearly, the voting
will be easy. The campaign will
be red hot till the votes are
counted.
When the special act was pass
ed authorizing the commissioners
to work the chain gang on the
court house, what provision was
made for maintenance? The
special act is blank on that point
and the people would like to
know whether the road fund is
being used on the court house.
If so, how about the roads?
Not since the adoption of the
Amendment have the democratic
public spellbinders pitched their
argument on so low moral plane
as this year. From the least
speaker to the greatest in this
county an intelligent appeal has
not been made. Prejudice and
ignorance prevails in every
spee:h and the lowest passions
of men are appealed to. Recon
struction, vagabonds, carpet
baggers, nigger-these are the
things which are given first con
sideration. The voter is told the
ballot will be given to 75000 col
ored voters if the Republicans
gain control of the legislature.
Poor old Sambo has been ridden
many times by the democrats
to victory and they are loath to
give him up. One speaker, it-is
said, went so far at Farmer as
to say that no WHITE MAN
COULD VOTE THE REPUBLI
CAN TICKET and -that no Re
publican woman could bake bis
cuits fit to eat. When a public
speaker descends to such depths,
he is either very shaky himself
or his cause is very questionable.
Democratic leaders in Ran
dolph county have always as
sumed a somewhat "We are
holier than thou" attitude and
have surrounded themselves
with a halo of meekness calculat
ed to deceive the unsuspecting.
To a certain extent they have
succeeded in covering up their
questionable deeds and the peo- j
pie have observed them only as
sepulchers whitened on the out
side, but which, in reality are
within, full of dead men's bones
and all foulness. Llittle by little
the smell leaks out and were the
whole story know?, the good
people of the county would stand
horrified r.t tre political rotten- j
ness and corruption permeating
every drop of blood and every
fiber of the political acts of those
who rule in the democratic wig
wam, livery tricK Known in the
code of the Simmons and Kitch
ii election machines have been
esorted'to. Mousy and liquor
tave played a conspicuous part
m corrupting the electorate and
even the courts have been Tros-
tituted to satisfy the ambitious
u"Of. those who are in posi
tion to use"-ifl;2m to carry out
their own selfLsh ends.
Bearing directly upon the sub
ject what will th-3 conscientious
voter think when he beholds the
spectacle of a registrar being
promised money from campaign
funds for the good work done
and with assurances that it would
be paid more willingly than any
other campaign ' debt of that
year. Shades of Thomas Jeffer
son! Haven t your 1 followers
DISCENDED a long ways since
you founded the party?
Turn the rascals out.
TH AT EOSS-RIDDEN CONVENTION.
(Contributed)
To the Democrat convention,
Came several little her.chmen,
All there to do the Big Boss' will,
And shout for the Piatt's Windy Bill.
None dared opinions of his own,
To have expresseb or made known,
For fear of the Dictator's rage,
Before whom proudest of them swage.
For everything was cut and dried.
His Romulus '.vas to preside,
While little Subs did this and that,
And for his self-made slate "Stand
pat."
These little subs were so well drilled,
V
They knew just what their master
willed,
Arid did his will with as much care,
As if the Big Boss had been there.
Sam Coble was his spokesman loud,
And of Sam's deeds ail were so proud,
To do him homage was a just debt,
While a lemon they gave the old
"Vet".
They named his old commissioners
two,
While poor old Griff, they let fall
through,
Also Hay worth, Murdock and Spence,
While Long Tom tried straddling ih;
fence.
Then to make the grand farce seem
real,
Brother-in-law Will, made a spiel,
He feared lies would be told, he said,
But it was the plain truth he feared.
Brother-in-law Will now resigns,
For it is the Boss' will he finds,
The chairmanship to Miiler went,
Who would come when called
go when sent.
But the Boss, little subs and all,
Will get a chilling frost this fall,
On the fourth day of November,
They'll be making for tall timber.

THE MAIN ISSUE.
No special pleas and no side
issues, no verbal dexterity and
no rhetorical appeal from Mr.
Bryan can alter the main issue
of the campaign, whether he
and his party have done more or
less than Judge Taft and his
party in the control, regulation
and reform of corporation and
combination.
It is no answer to say that
Mr. Bryan is out of power. His
party was in control of the Fed
eral Administration for four
years after the Sherman act was

Democratic party absolutely con
trols thirteen States and has
done nothing there. Its rail
road legislation has been uncon
stitutional, its anti-trust legisla
tion ineffective. Not even in
texas has it accomplished any
thing. Mr. Bryan himself has gone
from vagary to vagary. On tins
vast problem he has never ad
vanced a coherent solution and
most of the time he has been
vociferously barking up the
wrong tree. Up to this cam-1
paign everything has had his
attention but trusts, and even
now he has for trusts an unwork
able remedy.
The Republican party began
enforcing the anti-trust act un

Legislation has gone on with

day has his rights. Rebates
have disappeared. Railroad com
binations have broken up. The
enforcement of equal, impartial
rates has been before the courts
as never before.
These things are known of the
people. Every day makes them
plainer. For a season the noise
of Bryan and his shouting fills
the air, but the vast, sober,, hard
headed, silent vote, which in the
end settles every Presidential
campaign, hears his pleas arid

Two Pertinent Questions.
Editor Bulletin: I see it
stated in a newspaper print
ed in Ashboro that a certain
hardware store and a bank
in the corner of it, is financ
ing the Republican campaign.
Is it not more likely that an
other bank standing at the
east end of Depot St. is
financing the democratic
campaign, since trie cashier
end of it is hitched on to the
democratic ticket? And I
might ask also,, is it not
quite probable that this bank
er was nominated -with a
view of securing a man who
would finance the court
bouse proposition and pull
the board of commissioners
out of the hole?

Campaign News Accurate and Fair.
The coming month in the po
litical world is going to be inter
eating. The great national part'
iesare working hard for supra
macy and both are confident of
victory at the polls in November.
The two candidates of their re
spective parties are touring the
country making speeches and
discussing their policies. Eveiy
citizen and voter should know
what is going on and this you
can easily do by reading "The
Philadelphia Press," which is
printing all the political news
fairly and accurately. If you
cannot secure a copy of "The

PLEA FOR REPUBLICANISM.
For the past quarter of a cent
ury the various democratic
"spellbinders" have been going
throughout this broad State of
ours and by hiding their mis
deeds under the Lions skin have
succeeded in fooling the people
into the belief that they repre
sent the interest of the working
man, and that they were the
proper persons to entrust in
power, but the braying of asses
(?) has disclosed their identity
and their misdeeds now stand as
an open book before the people.
It is a boast of the howling office
seekers that they stand on their
past records, when the cold
facts of the case is that they are
running away from those records.
After a brief rest of two short
years the calamity howler is
again in evidence, and his boast
of "good government" under
the present State Administra
tion is enough to turn a bright
June day into an ice, factory.
From every stump in the State
the howl of the office seeker is
plainly heard, his speech being
only an echo of the campaigns
for the past half Century, me
issues of the day are discarded
and the older and more familiar
ones of "negro domination" and
"carpet baggers" are the ones
that are brought before the peo
ple. Those who only read the
stagnant articles from the mouth
piece of Randolph County De
mocracy no doubt believe that
the democratic party is a party
of "deeds" rather than "words"
but a careful investigation will
prove this to be untrue.
Let us look into some of the
"good government" and "superi
or management" of this so-called
great party. Let us take a look
at the report of the grand jury
for the recent term of Lincoln
County Superior court. Do not
wince Mr. democrat at the cold
facts staring you in the face for
this is not "campaign boodle"
collected for the immediate use
of the pi-eserit campaign, but it
is an extract from the report of
democratic grand jury. Grip
your chair rounds and do not
"holler". Here goes!
"We visited the County borne
in a body, 16 members of the
jurji being present. We found
ized country can allow to con
tinue without being a disgrace
to itself. We found all the cab-
ins in a very bad state of repair,4tes to reading some of the many
the roofs being leaky, the foun
dations badly rotten, and alto
gether a very bad arrangement
for caring for the infirm."
Here Mr. voter is a fair sample
of democratic "good govern
ment. ' ' Here we see the aged
and infirm kept in a far worse
condition than the wearersof the
stripes, forced by absolute neces
sity to live, (or exist) there in a
civilized country in a dire state
of modern Barbarity. Here we
find old men and old women
forced to sleep under a leaky
roof in all kinds of weather. But
let us follow the jury and see
some more of the ' 'good govern
ment" we receive under the
reign of the ' 'representatives of
the people." . ' -
We found the beds nothing
better than bags partly filled
with straw, there not being a
decent piece of furniture in any
of the rooms."
It is absolutely unnesessary for
us to say anything in regard to
this, for facts speak for them
selves, and it is for only the lack
of spreading facts that the peo
ple of this grand old State are
forced to bow in submission to
the ring ridden party that has
run it to the very verge of de
struction. But as we said in the begining
the braying of asses (?) has dis
closed their identity and their
bad management of affairs now
lie open to a great and God fear
ing people the result of which
will be felt in November. Clinch
your chair rounds a little tighter
Mr. soaphead delusionest and let
us go a little farther in the cold
storage of facts, listen!
"We found men and women
kept in the same room-(unmarried.)"
Now Mr. delusionest we chal
lenge you to show where in a
single instance in the history of
Republicanism such low down
and degraded conditions were
allowed to exist under republican
rule, and yet the democratic par
ty a party of "decency" God
save the mark.
To go into the details of this
disgraceful affair would consume
volumes so we cannot go into
them at much lenghth. The
jury reported that the care of
the infirm was let to the lowest
bidder and that the presen
management received less than
$3.50 per month for each inmate.
The conditions, say the" jury,
have been previously called to
the atttention of the Commission
ers but they refuse to remedy
them. Now Mr. voter can you
go to the polls the third day of
November and with these cold
facts staring 3rou in the face
cast your vote for the continu
ance of this inhuman state of
affairs? Answer by the way
you cast your ballot in the com
ing election.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES AT
MILLBORO.
By far the largest political
gathering ever assembled in this
community greeted the Republi
can candidates, Messrs. Hughes,
Holton and Coltrane at this place
last Saturday night, Oct. 3d.
The speaking was held in the
school house, which was crowded
with enthusiastic Republicans
from all parts of Frankiinville
township.
Mr. J. F. Routh introduced the
first speaker of the evening, Mr.
John Hughes, who held the clote
attention of every person pres
ent throughout his address of
about an hour's duration. Mr.
Hughes discussed the issues of
the day in an able and forceful
manner, making point after
point and being frequently in
terupted by bursts of hearty-
applause, as he compared the
Republican party, with its steady
adherence to principles tested
and proven, to the chaotic as
semblage now posing as tho
Democratic party, 'whose politi
cal faith consists principally of
wild experiments and untried
theories, which are changed
with the seasons. Their or.lv
real, genuine principle is any-!
thing to hood wink and deceive j
ignorant voters. j
Mr. Holtoh then took the floor j
and proceeded to show un the j
misdeeds and stupid blunders of
the Democratic party in state j

the purpose of bringing for-: ign j

who are unable to pay their own
way to this country are not
wanted in North Carolina.
He then devoted a few minu-
charges and counter charges
heaped upon each cthe by the
numerous Democratic factions.
The number and the undoubted
truth of many of the charges
bring to mind the old adage
"When thieves fall out" etc.
