The time has come when the people should "speak)ut." The "hireling is worthy of his pay" is an injunc tion uttered by our Savior centu ries ago; but is just as applicable to-day as when spoken. It is too often! the case that those who have exerted themselves for the promo tion of a cause is left "out in the cold" while the aristocrat and po litical demagogue reap the "re ward." In this age money has a great power and when brought to bear with all its force, generally carries its designs. We hope this year in Moore county 6uch will not be the case. When the proper time comes, let's have a fair and free Convention; where the people can assert their rights. We have several offices this year to be filled and for them we want sound men men of firmness,, who have the vim and power, to have a "way of their own." Men who will dis countenance all "cliques" and "rings'' agd do justice to their con stituents. Let the people speak "out." This year Moore is enti tled til a Senator. Who does the people want? A member of the lower House; a Superior Court Clerk; a Sheriff and Register of Deeds. We are not in favor of agitating this matter too early but the people should remember that these cliques, formed for self-interest, are ; always laying their schemes.
