Cliarle 'Ross Speaks to Larger Crowd In Asheboro- Las4 Saturday night Mr. Charles Ross, of Harnett county, spoke to a large crowd In the court house at Asheboro. Col. W. P. Wood. Stat Auditor, in bis usual pleading man ner, introduced the speaker. Mr Ros is a former Asheboro boy who has "made good," being now a prominent citizen and successful lawyer, of Lillington. His many friends here were glad of the oppor tunity to hear him- Mr- Ross,- a usual made an excelent peech He said'in part: In 1896 a binding contract was made between the Republican nar- ty and certain special interests- For -..v-TOn jcais e jinve ueen living nnaer he Influence of that contract By its terms these special interests were t0 furnish the campaign funds h Keep the Republican party in power; and the Republican party was to enact such laws and so ad minister the laws regulating com binations of capital as to enrich these favored interests- Ey virtue of this great contract more than forty million dollars have been contributed to the cam-D-.iprn funds of tbe Republican par- ouring this period of sixteen years. Put in return therefor the American people have been trjeed about ?25.00 per capita every year for the enrichment of the nntmna of tho party's campaign fund. Tbo Harvester Trust, the Sugar Trust and the Rtpei frust hove each enjoyed immunity from plr?ecution A nation's sense of outraf-ed justice demands eauallty bfeore the law.
