The Democratic papers are con stantly crying out that we are now living under the worst tariff law ever passed and that the cost of living Is too high. Would the people of the State like to return to the Wilson Gorman Democratic tariff, under which cotton sold for four cents a pound? In this connection It Is no ticeable that Senator Simmons has resigned from the committee appoint ed by the United States Senate to in vestigate the causes of the high cost of living. The Democratic papers of the State give as an explanation for the Senator's action, that the Senator has been overworked and that his health is not very good. This is very Btrange in view of the howl which the Democratic press has been send ing up for months that the Republi can tariff was the infamous cause of the high cost of living and that the same should be investigated. Now, when the Democratic party has a chance to Investigate these evil causes and had the great Demo cratic leader, Mr. Simmons, on the committee to help bring out the truth and prevent the Republican press from hiding the truth, he sud denly throws up his hands and re signs from this most important com mittee. If the Democratic press is correct, how could Mr. Simmons or any Democrat render his party or the country a greater service than by serving on such a committee and reaching the true bottom facts? If Mr. Simmons' health is so poor that he can not perform this great overshadowing duty, then ought not he to resign as Senator? He certain ly has no other committee work or any other duties as Senator that are of one-tenth the importance that this committee' work will be to the peo ple, If the Democratic press is cor recL CONTEMPTIBLY DISHONEST. The Raleigh News and Observer continues to try to make its rpartprs believe that Marion Butler has been and Is still trying to collect fraudu- lent carpet-bag bonds from the State. To show how contemptibly dishon- est that paper is. we copy aeain a letter written by Senator Butler to the Houston Post giving the facts as they are. It is as follows: "Editor Houston Post, Houston, Tex. Dear Sir: A friend sends me what purports to be an editorial clip- t-b uvui. jum paper, wmcn contains the followine- the following: 'There is a Marion Butler, of North Carolina, at present en gaged in a conspiracy to bleed North Carolina for the bonds fraudulently issued by the car pet-baggers.' "There is not a word of truth in this statement, yet you make the charge as a fact and on your own re- sposibility. "I have no connection with anv cuux i io coiieci any or tne rraudulent o" , - naa xuyiuyea oc'ai years ago Dy tne noiaers or the North Carolina Second Mortgage Bonds to establish their validity and enforce their collection.

They were Issued by a Democratic Gover- nor (Jonathan Worth) and a Demo- cratic State Treasurer (Dr. Kemp P. J Battle). The bonds were sold at nar and the State received every dollar of the proceeds. Unquestioned evi- "7" lo 'ms enecl was DeIore tne Supreme Court at the trial of that cause.

Besides, that paper, in a re- cent editorial, says: The recent attempt of the uuuu eynaicaie, wnicn iormeriy operated through the Republi can Governor and Fusion Sen ator from North, to induce Rhode Island, to sue North Car olina, has served to call atten tion to the venal acts of the car- bag leglalation that curaed the I South.' I This clearly i. an effort to charge by indirection that I am connected with the New York syndicate, which recently presented some carpet-bag bonda to the State of Rhode Island for collection. In order that you may not be further misled, I take this means to brand that editorial, so far as It seeks to connect me with that New York syndicate or or any effort to collect fraudulent carpet bag bonds, as false and wilfully mendacious. "Yours very truly, "MARION BUTLER." This letter was published by the Houston Post on February 17th and has been copied by a large number of papers in this State. But the one paper, the Ralgh News and Observer, which has originated all these false charges, and which owes a duty to its readers to give them the truth, has viciously neglected to publish the letter. That paper has not only published these false charges, but it knows that they are false A STINGING REBUKE. Aroused by two murders occurring within a short time, and other crimes which have gone unpunished, the citizens of the lower part of Guilford County, irrespective of politics, have scathingly rebuked the Democratic county officials for their apparen lack of energy. The resolutions, in part, say: "We, the citizens of Julian and surrounding county, have become thoroughly disgusted and indignant beyond expression at the immoral influences and outrageous conduct of an ele ment existing near here, and which is very damaging to our community from a moral as well as from a religious standpoint. "Therefore be it "Resolved 1. That we greatly deplore the fact that two mur ders have occurred in this part of Guilford County in the past five months, also a number of fights, gambling, Sabbath-breaking and liquor-selling. "2. That we very much need the assistance and earnest ef forts of the county authorities to bring the guilty parties to justice and thus restore peace and quiet and make it seem oth er than a disgrace to live in this part of the county. "3. That we ask a more con centrated and earnest effort on the part of the officers of the law and those in authority to bring the guilty parties to justice and punishment."

With characteristic tnconsis- wanted to get up against his congre tency and desire to conceal the real gatioa good and hard, And was look facts, it does not also say that the ing for a suitable tople upon which nn.ornfth.rnfouro.nLie. lt hi CaStigAtlon, one Of hi islature is just as great, just as arbi trary and just as liable to abuse as the former power of the National Speaker. The Speaker of the Lower House of the General Assembly appoints all committees. He also designates who shall be chairmen of those commit tees. He is also ex-officlo chairman of bis own rules committee, the great objection to Speaker Cannon, of which he is now deprived It Is therefore reasonable to pre sume, and it would not be natural were the case otherwise, that the Speaker appoints his friends to those Important committees whose ac tions have greater bearing on the conduct of public affairs. It is also to be presumed that he ig nores the minority in such advan tageous appointments. It Is also a notorious fact, that in the past Legis latures, Speakers have ignored the minority far more mercilessly than Speaker Cannon has even been ac cused of doing and no one is more fully aware of this fact than the editor of the News and Observer, who, in one legislature, at least, per sonally dominated that body and its speaker more than all. In criticising Speaker Cannon, it should be borne in mind that the same rules, the same alleged usurpa tion of authority, were practiced by the Democratic Speaker in the years that party controlled the Lower House. Here in our own State, "Cannon- ism," so-called, exists In full flower. But you hear no objection from the Democratic press. Would such be the case if the same rules, the same practices that now exists, be carried out in the Legislatures that should happen to be Republican? Such a shriek would go up that it would sound as if Gehenna were let loose. A BIG SWINDLING SCHEME. In another column we publish copy of a letter which has been received by a prominent North Carolina citi-, zen, from Madrid, Spain. We have information that similar letters are being sent to other American citi zens. The Caucasian has forwarded this correspondence to the Depart ment of State with a request that the swindlers be brought to justice, or that their scheme at least be ex posed. Inasmuch as the same letters have no doubt gone to a large number of North Carolinians, The Caucasian suggests that the papers of the State should copy this letter and warn their readers. THE BOOZE PARTY. The Greensboro Record maintains that Charlotte got the Democratic State Convention because it had the uuuze. mis is pretty nard on which? The convention or Charlotte. -Union Republican. Thus, the so-called prohibition party has become the booze, party - - V w ,J , which is the same as saying that the is. Another illustration' of this truth is the fact that the party that howls most against trusts has not prose- cuted a single trust It is reported from Washington that the patronage machine boss has I at last decided that it is not safe to have Hancock nominated for post- master at New Bern for fear that -...i - . . - uuuiu not do connrmea, and that the boss is now looking for some dark horse to name as postmaster who wil agree beforehand to make Hancock his assistant, and no doubt also with the understanding that Hancock is to run the post-ofilce and be the rea postmaster in fact. Such a schema is surely in keeping with the methods of the patronage machine In the past. We take it that if the machine sue ceeds in this move that they will next try. to have Hancock re-elected as Chairman of the Congressional Com mittee of the Third District, so as to make it so that no Republican Con gressman can be elected from that District. We received a letter yesterday from the Republican chairman of a Republican county in this State, in which he said that The Caucasian was the best paper published in North Carolina. He showed his faith by his work, as he enclosed one dollar for a new subscriber. Get your neigh bors to subscribe for The Caucasian and they will afterwards thank you ji ;our Kindness. T.

TELL IT TO JOSEPHUS. Democratic Politician After IMsj Franchising the Xegro Try to Us Uloi In Their Elections. DemocrmL deacons suggested that Judas Is cariot would be a good subject, as he had no friends in the church. The Republican party Is regarded In much the same light by many in the State. And so we frequently see it stated that one of the things which the party has in view Is the giving back to the negroes the ballot they have lost. Passing by any discussion on this point, when the truth Is told, it will be seen that most negroes who have been allowed to register and become voters since the passage of the amendment have done so through the efforts of Democrats and not Republicans. We dislike to say this, but it Is true, and It's now a matter of record. And this is the unfortunate part, that it Is a matter of record. The negroes who were put on the books for the sake of carrying some local matter are now on the books, and are there for all time, except some who may commit crime which shall disqualify them. The allowing of negroes to vote In prohibition elections in order to rec ord a local victory ha3 been the en tering wedge, which, if pursued far enough, will destroy the safeguards and the blessings which came as the result of the Constituional Amend ment. A negro can well afford to vote any way, once, in a local election, provided by this he becomes a voter in all subsequent elections. A ne gro who is qualified to vote ought to be allowed to do so, but to make an effort to have them come to the bal lot box will lead to voting them in discriminately, which simply means a return to former conditions. Another Sample of "Democratic Good Government.' Clinton News Dispatch. Oh Democracy, Democracy,, the party that has not ceased to brag of what it has done for the poor in sane people of the State, the party that has spuandered so many thous and dollars of the people's hard earned money and when you get right straight after them about it, they throw up their hands in holy horror and about the first word they speak they begin to tell you that they spent the money in order to take care of the insane of our State, and they brag about how nice they are doing it. But, alas, alas, we find from a report of a Wake County grand jury that they recommend that the Insane be taken away from coun ty homes and placed in the asylum. The report goes on to say that the State is collecting annually a tax for their care and maintenance and the State should be made to do its duty. This is just a sample of Democratic good government. Not Exactly Right. Yorkville Enquirer. The Charlotte Observer mentions the fact that Minority Leader Champ Clark is filling lecture dates, although an important session of Congress is on. And he is not the only one that has pursued such a course. This thing of Congressmen going around the country and making speeches when they are paid to be in Wash ents, may be all right, but it has never seemed exactly that way to us.

The business section of the town of Llles ville, five miles east of Wadesboro, was destroyed by fire Saturday night. Thirty-three business houses with their contents were consumed in two hours. The loss is estimated at $250, 000 and so far as known the total in surance is less than $15,000. The fire was discovered at 10 o'clock and a general alarm given, but the efforts of the citizens were of no avail and the flames spread until four solid blocks were burned.
