U'aHhliiKton, which 1 but a feeble
reflection of the demand of tbi
manse of the people from all parts
of the country. The Caucasian has
alwayx felt that the InterehtH of the
Nation demanded that IloOiWvelt
should serve again, and that the
President should yield to the wishes
and Judgment of the people ex
pressed with such unanimity. But
when the President bo emphatically
declined and bo earnestly requested
his friends not to urge him to serve
again, we turned to Secretary Taft
as the next best man to carry for
ward tho great fight for a square
deal.
The Caucasian was the first papei
in the State to declare for the re
nomination of Roosevelt, and was
also the first paper to declare for
Taft as second choice. Today
Roosevelt Ib the country's first
choice. The reasons given by Gen.
Curtln. of West Virginia, a Taft del
egate, why he will vote for Roose
velt, as set out In our Washington
letter, expresses the overwhelming
sentiment of the voters of the coun
try. The reasons he gives are that
not only Republican success, but
also the interests of the whole
country demands it. His facts are
correct, his reasons are remarkable.
Then why should not every delegate
who is sincerely in favor of Roose
velt's policies join Gen. Curtln In
drafting Roosevelt?
Tere is an additional reason that
should appeal to North Carolinians;
it is that if Roosevelt is drafted,
then this State can be carried Re
publican this fall. But this reason
will most probably cause Adams
and delegates of his stripe to refuse
to join Gen. Curtin In drafting
Roosevelt. Adams has principles
or convictions, and if the issue Is
drawn and he gets a chance at Chi
cago he will betray Roosevelt and
his policies and the success of the
Republican party in this State.
Our Washington letter says that
the criminal rich are all very much
frightened by the interview of Gen.
Curtin. That Is natural, because
every lawbreaker and every evil
doer who opposes the enactment of
a law that will bring him to Justice,
fears Roosevelt more than any man
In America. And their fears, their
abuse and hatred are but a tribute
to the wisdom, courage and patriot-
Ism of Theodore Roosevelt.
If all law abiding and patriotic
citizens do not, in the face of such
grave conditions, come to the res-led
cue, it will be a striking proof of

DENUNCIATION AND CONTEMPT
FOR ADAMS.
The Caucasian has received a let
ter from a subscriber In Oklahoma
saying that reports have been pub
lished in a number of the Oklahoma
papers of the severe denunciation
which Mr. M. L. Mott eave Ex-Judee
.,7
Spencer B. Adams when recently in
Mott denounced him as a man In
whose integrity he had no confidence
and that he believed that he was
corrupt. The writer of the letter
also says that the reports in the
papers down, there say that Adams
did not resent the severe castiga-
tion.
This will not surprise the people
of North Carolina, because it Is well
known that a man who Is Insincere,
and ungrateful is always a cow-
ard. From what we have heard
about Adams in Oklahoma, it seems
that the general feeling toward him
is one of contempt.
Some of the Democratic politicians
feel very bitter toward Simmons

The Caucasian ha learned that

know that such action was to be
.Lt.r. :.a .r f.t.t .rf nnln ? toi
learn that the machine hat taken
nap Jiidgment on them in this way.
It 1h well known that the primaries
held to elect delegates to the last
State Convention were everywhere
thinly attended. In any community
where a postmaster or any other
Federal officeholder was talking
loud for Taft and saying that he
wanted to go as a delegate to the
State convention, the rank and file
of the people did not take the trou
ble to go to the primaries, but let
the few officeholders have their way
and elect themselves as delegates,
but It never occurred to them that
they, would dare to try to perpetu
ate themselves as delegates.
When the time comes to nominate
a Governor and other State officers,
then the people generally turn out
to the primaries and express their
wishes and select delegates to repre
sent them. That is what the people
would do this year if they had a
chance, and especially so In view of
the splendid opportunity that every
one sees for the Republicans to elect
their ticket and sweep the State.
The machine could have had but one
purpose In taking this action, and
that was to try to prevent the next
Republican State Convention from
being a progressive and representa
tive body. Their purpose was to try to
make it certain that the State should
not go Republican, and if they can
have their way they will succeed In
killing the bright prospects which
the party now has.
Let the people in every county
where such selfish, treasonable ac
tion was taken by the patronage ma
chine rise up in their might and
wrath and denounce such action and
demand that other primaries be call
ed and -that the people be given a
chance to atend and voice their
wishes.
This Is a fine specimen of the
contemptible work of the machine to
keep the party small, and to perpetu
ate the patronage machine.

THE PATRONAGE MACHINE THE
ONLY THING IN THE WAY OF
VICTORY.
When the rank and file of the
party will go to the primaries and
take charge of the conventions of
the party, then the patronage ma
chine will have to go, and then and
not till then, will there be a Repub
lican victory in North Carolina
There is a better opportunity now
to carry the State than there was In
1894, when we did carry It. The
only thing that stands in the way of
victory this fall is Adams and his
patronage machine.
That machine comprises but a I
very small part of the voters, thenlotaie ana was a candidate ror ires-
if tho nni0 tau rhurro nt their
party and head it toward victory.
If this Is not done, then we will
have to wait until there Is a Demo-1
pratto Kntinnni n minist rat ion flsls
there was In 1894, before we can
get rid of the machine and give the
party a chance to win. But we are
hopeful, for one we see signs that
the rank and file will take an inter
est in being represented at the next
State Convention, and besides we
are satisfied that a number of Fed
eral office holders wll help In fight
ing for party growth and victory.
A prominent officeholder has just
shown us a letter which he has got
ten from ex-Senator Butler, and
he says that he endorses every word
of it. The letter is in part as fol
lows:
"Your esteemed favor of May
21st, enclosing a list of names, re
ceived, for which please accept
thanks. I am delighted to know
that you are in full accord with the
views expressed in my letter, as I
felt sure you would. If we fail tolntT years, and he was the peer of
carry the State this fall or to get at
least a hundred thousand votes it
will be our own fault. The oppo
sition were never In worse shape,
and we have never had such a splen
did opportunity before.
It has been said a number of times I
in. the past that we would not have
carried the State in 1894 if there!
had been a Republican admlnlstra-
tlon, because the Republican organ-1
Ization would have opposed It. If
this wa3 true then, let us prove to
the people of the State that it is not
true this year. It would be a shame I
for us to have such an opportunity J
to carrv the State and throw it awav I

Governor and some Concressmen

This position Is alu sound, there
fore the business a well as the po

tion doe not respoud to this de
mand, it will fail to express the over

the country.
If Roosevelt is drafted he will get
the electoral vote of North Carolina.
This is another reason why the dele
gates from this State should Join the
delegates from West Virginia and
vote for him.
WHAT MAY HAPPEN' AT CHICAGO
Col. C. S. Wooten, of La Grange,
Writes Interestingly on Political
Matters.
In the summer of 1876 I was a
visitor at Saratoga Springs, in the
State of New York. During the time
that I was there the Democratic
convention assembled to nominate
a candidate for Governor and otner
State officers.

of the Democratic party of the State
He was a man without reproach,
pure in his private life and without
a stain upon nis public character.
For Integrity, patriotism and
statesmanship he will rank with
Phocion for the Greeks, Brutus for
the Romans, William of Orange of
the Netherlands of the sixteenth cen-1
tury, Lafayette for the French andjso honored at such an early age as
Hampden for the English.
His sister was the wife of Roscoe
Conkling. One day-she remarked
that her brother ' Horatio was the
best man living. Somebody asked,
is he better than your husband?
!he replied, "I repeat, he is the best
man living."
This shows in what estimation he
was held by his sister, who ought to
to know him better than anybody
else. I regret that I never saw this
man. I have seen most of the great
men of this country during the last
any of them.
Seymour had said that he would
not accept the nomination, because
he was old and feeble and was not
able to perform the duties of the
office. So when the convention as-
sembled the delegates determined
to respect the opinion of the old man
ano- not to mention his name for
Governor. The convention assem
bled at 8 p. m. The delegates were
on the first floor and the visitors
were in the gallery. I had a seat
on the front row and had a full
view of the convention below
As soon as the convention organ
ized the names of several gentlemen
were placed In nomination for Gov-

It now seems that Mr. Taft will be
the Republican candidate for Pres

are pledge to him. Suppose when
the different candidate are placed

should place Roosevelt's- name be

tion urging the Republican Conven
tion to nominate the President for a
second elective term and urging the
ieoDle to sign It. irrespective of
party. This Is significant and In
dlcates that the President has a
hold upon the popular heart that
no other man has. While the mon
ered classes and many politicians
are against him, yet the masses oi
the people are for him.
I doubt if Washington or General
Jackson or Lincoln were ever

EX-GOV. RUSSELL.
A Sympathetic Review of a Remark
able Career.
Danville Register.
In the death a day or two ago in
Brunswick county. N. C. of Ex-
Governor Daniel L Russell a re
markable career has closed. Few
men have had more honors con
lerred upon them by their fellow
citizens and perhaps none has been
this Carolinian. His fame is lim-
Ited only by the fact that he was
a member or tne minority party in
a State in which stormy politics
eclipses the career of many able
men. It Is difficult in times of po
litical strife and prejudice to ap
preciate the abilities and merits of
a political opponent, but when the
great leveler has silenced the crit
icisms of foes, truth begins to assert
itself and a man is often appreci
ated after he is dead. Daniel L.
Ttussel was but 6 years old, yet he
had been captain of a military com
mand in the Confederate service at
17 years old, at 19 pears of age he
was a member of the Legislature of
nis native State, and at 23 he was
made a Judge of the Superior Court
of the State, being the youngest
juirst ever on the bench in that
State. At the age of 29 he was
elected to Congress on the Green-
pacK ucKet ana served two years
in that body. His last and crown
ing honor was his election to the
governorship of North Carolina in
1894, but the fact that he was ele
vated to that high office by the com
binatlon of Populists and Republi
cans and that this fusion lost its
,,ower a few vears afterward caused
tne honor to be less appreciated by
his People. Colonel Russell was one
