Mr. Bryan, vrho is closest to Governor Wilson . and who, when Governor Wilson is made Pres ident, will be his ally In the adminis tration "of the affairs of this country, has identified Mr. Simmons with the Republican' party and it Is significant that-four days after Governor Wilson and Mr. Bryan held a. conference in the West, The Commoner, Mr. Bry an's paper had this to say about the situation in this State: . . "Senator Simmons aske the people of North Carolina for re-election. He ought - to be defeated. North Caro lina is really a progressive State.- It is entitled to representation . in the United States Senate' by a man whose heart is known to be in sympathy with the hearts of the people. Mr. Simmons is not such a man. He would do very well as a representa tive of the stand-pat Republican party. He will not do as a repre sentative of the Democratic party "if that party is to be true to its prin ciples. "That," said Governor Kitchin, "is the estimate which the leading, pro-. gressive ' Democrat of the 'United States . thinks of Mr. Simmons. It must ; be what Mr. Wilson thinks of him. for these two outstanding-, fig ures of Democracy are heart to heart in -working out now the program of a progressive Government, in rid ding the country of the disastrous evils of tariff legislation and distribut ing the benefits of a free Govern ment to all the people alike." . " .Mr. Simmons' Votes. .Governor- Kntchin entered at this stage of his address into an elaborate discussion - of Mr. .. Simmons' votes, dwelling. with emphasis upon the Lor- imer affair and the attitude taken by the Senator .toward .the lumber In terests. "Mr. Simmons tried to ex plain his vote on lumber in his Char lotte speech, saying that he voted for a. tariff on. lumber not for protection but for -revenue, not- for bad - purposes but for a good purpose If I should subscribe 1100 , to the building of a church in your community and then break into a store and steal the-$100 with which, to pay it, I, could say that I applied the stolen m'oney to a good cause, but I would still have violated the commandment and when Senator Simmons voted for a tariff on lumber, as he said for a good cause, he, never theless, violated the platform pledges of the party that' sent him to Wash ington to. defend it instead of com promising it. He voted for a tariff on cotton seed oil because, he said, cot ton seed, oil mills In .Germany were springing up and entering into com petition with American mills. He did not tell you that this tariff on cotton seed oil was protective to the few cot ton seed oil mills in the State and not for the interest of the individual cot ton grower of the State who Is not profited a cent by this duty. ' I suppose the cotton seed oil men , : of . the State . are support ing him, they are not Supporting me. They ought to be supporting him : . he helped them. -. I expect the ! Southern, . Cotton Oil Company of Charlotte along with ' the Southern Power Company- is supporting Mr. Simmons Every special interest should be: None of- them - are for ; me, The . hjgh officials of - the American , Tobacco Company are against me as they were four years ago. They know the stamp of my Democracy, - but ; they -. are ' . - better, pleased with the brand which . Mr. Simmons is using. And unlike the prodigal . son., that : he is. having strayed, far from the home of his Democratic fathers, having feasted in foreign , markets, he comes back; not on , his ' knees to ask for. forgiveness of -the old man. and the boys at home, but to demand that they - take him back' and'hot'only-feel" proud that he has returned; but to allow, him - to tender, the reception to them. ; VThen Mr. Simmons' friends. answer these attacks by saying that he voted with .the better element of the Re publicans .in the Senate. That is a fine defense, unanswerable! Yes, he voted with Heyburn, the greatest South-hater in the Senate; He voted with Smoot, the Mormon from Utah. He voted with th, better class of Re publican Senators! They hold this up in his defense and have circulated against me pamphlets to the effect tbatI have done nothing, that I did nothing at all when I was Congress man as against what Mr. Simmons has been able to do along with Republi cans. Those who sent those circulars showing how many times I missed roll-call and was down here in North Carolina making speeches In behalf of my candidacy for Governor might also have told you that I had the as surance before I entered the race for Governor from Mr. Simmons that he was going i;o play , hands off of that contest and was not going to have a thing to, do with It. : The contest had been on but a little while when Sen ator Simmons, did get in It and against aiiSt-meaye4hlS Perfai machine against vine., , That is why I left Washington I left to come down here and fight the ringsters under thp guiding genius of the Senatdr'whS were trying to defeame .in that rice "They are; claiming, some of Mr. StTrni nnd8 that tl People of ? 0i!?h aro"na are everlastingly in debted to him; that his service in R8i8RSrVthhIen ,n,the dayof the Red Shirt, his service was so signal that he is entitled to the election. I made a speech at Ellerbe Springs the other day and claimed that Sen ator SimmOhs was not only not identl it. As I . made this-allusion one of the leading citizens of that county, Co?. W. L. Steele, asked me to allow him to interrupt and he : arose and said, . 'Governor i Kitchin; 3 1 want . to take this opportunity of : corroborat ing every word you say, and remind these people:that after our wives and daughters had sewed, our red shirts all night and' day and we had started on parade, six miles out from Rock ingham,. Cam Morrison v and Mr. Whitlock came dashing up. on steeds foaming with heat, bearing a , tele gram from Senator Simmons, then State chairman, advising that we give up the, movement and go back home and. expressing fear that we were act ing without discretion. - We promptly replied that' we were attending to our own business in that county and pro ceeded. And yet he saved the State in those stirring times!" : - Mr. Bailey's Speech. " "I have repeatedly asked Mr. Sim mons to meet me in joint debate and let us have an understanding between us about these things and let the people have ' the -opportunity of judg ing -who . is right and wrong, but he has not consented to come out for such a discussion. He Is depending upon the Republican newspapers in North Carolina, the astute political machine of the State, the shrewd cor respondents at Washington, ; to blind you to the . facts, to pull the wool over your eyes and keep you from finding out what is precisely the truth about these matters. Mr. Simmons has . chosen an official orator, it is true, Mr. J. W. Bailey was the man selected. ' I presume- in . fact I am almost sure, that . Mr. Bailey's speeches were scrutinized by the Sen ator before they were delivered and in these speeches Mr. Bailey says that it would have been folly- for . Mr.. Simmons4 to apply the Democratic platform to Republican tariff legisla tion. On the same principle, a mis sionary we send to China might send back word that being In the minority, it is useless to preach the Gospel and apply the principles of Christianity to the people of that country, and. therefore, it is better to accept their own religion Instead." . your v.vV ' Poultry Is Lousy .

Mass. . who Is In Charlotte represent ing the American Unitarian Associa tion for the purpose of - establishing here if it is found feasible a Unita rian congregation declares that he is much pleased with the prospects in Charlotte for a congregation of his faith. Once established, he declares that a church would grow rapidly be cause of ' its liberal creed, the Unita rian Church not seeking to have all its members conform to strict ortho doxy.' " Mr.. Seaton remarks upon'thc fact that President Taft is a Unitarian as also was President Thomas Jefferson and the two Adamses. . while J ohn Marshall, the first and probably the greatest Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court and Daniel Webster were- also of the same faith. Henry W. Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Dr. Holmes were all Unitarians. The late Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the United States Senate, was a Unitarian, and his suc cessor, Rev. Dr. U .G. B. Pierce, is a member of the; same denomination having been pastor of All ( Souls Church at Washington. The faith Is not a new one. r as wli be seen., but, according to Mr. Seaton, is as old f.s Christianity. . ; ' . .
