Evekv vote counts. Therefore be
sure to go to the polls and vote next
Tuesday and nat your neighbor
does ho too.
No Demotuat sliould scratch the
name of any man on the ticket. They
are all good men and worthy to lie
voted for by all good men.
Keoi.hthatio.v being over the next
thing is to go to the poll on Nov.
8th next Tuesday and vote the
straight Democratic ticket.
No need of looking after your
neighbor now about registering, but
be sure that every one who is regis
tered goes to the polls and votes on
election day.

after the election to feel that every

Of course North Carolina and
Vance county will go Democratic,
but every Democrat should work
anil vote just as though there was
actual danger ahead. Do not lft us

we can.

Pretty talk this, from one of the

merely limited the right of suffrage
to those who are qualified to exercise
it, a step which Massachusetts and

If the country ieople will only take

will be tremendous. All Democrats
should take this much interest in
their party. No man should refrain
from voting just because there will
be enough ballots to elect without

party to get as large a vote as pos

no other purpose, that it may secure
proper representation in the'district

be based on the vote cast for Mr.

OUTLOOK FOR DEMOCRATIC SUC
CESS ENCOURAGING.
County Chairman A.J. Harris is in
receipt of a letter from Hon. F. M.
Simmons, chairman of the State Dem
ocratic Executive Committee.in which
lie says the chances of Judge Parker's
election are very fine. The news
from New York is most encouraging.
'Certain it is,v says Chairman Sim
mons, "that for the first time in many
years we come to within a week of
the election with the Democratic
party making an aggressive fight,
and the Republican party on the- de
fensive, and trying in an hysterical
manner to explain its record and the
charges which have been preferred
against them."
Chairman Simmons also adds a
word about the situation in North
Carolina, emphasizing what was al
ready known. He says "the outlook
in this State is all right. I see no
reason to expect any falling off in
our majority in the Legislature, and
our percentage of the majority will
be, in my judgment, as large as it
was in the last election. There is
every reason, however, that a full
vote should lx polled. First, as a
protest against Rooseveltism, and
second, as an endorsement of the
splendid work the Democratic party
has been and is doing in the State."
A Word With Democrats.

Every man is responsible for his
influence, be it small or great. Everv
Democrat whovot.es for Parker votes
to defeat Roosevelt. Kverv Demo
crat who does not vote for Parker
contributes toward the election of
Roosevelt. On everv question upon
which Judge Parker's position is
open to criticism, President Roose
velt's position is worse; where thev
differ, as they do on many impor
tant questions, Parker is right and
Roosevelt is wrong.
Roosevelt favors a high tariff; Par
ker favors tariff reform. Roosevelt
favors a standing army of C(),()(M as
the minimum. Parker favors reduc
tion of the army.
Roosevelt has brought the race
issue into national politics. Parker
would remove the rac issue from

history is philosophy teaching by

is calculated to elevate the thinking

The Largest Political Gathering That
Mas Been Held litre in Hany Years
"Standing Room Only," in Coor
Opera House Many Ladies in the
Audience Strong Speecii of Intro
duction by Hr. A. C. ZolMcoffrr.
Gov. Aycock spoke to a large aud
ience at Cooper Opera House Satur
day afternoon. It was the greatest
gathering at a political speaking
that has been seen here in years.
The Governor was in good form and
perfect voice and his speech was one
of the best that has been heard here
or elsewhere. No speaker in North
Carolina can surpass Charles It. Ay
cock and none can charm and thrill
the people as he can. His speech Sat
urday was pitched upon a high plane
and during the one hour and a quar
ter of its delivery he commanded the
closest attention of his hearers. At
times he would rise to flights of ora
tory, as in ringing words he appealed
for' the children of North Carolina,
the insane, the deaf, dumb and blind,
the old soldiers, good government
and the peace, happiness and pros
perity of all the people.
Mi A. J. Harris, chairman of the
County Executive Committee, pre
sided over the meeting and called it
to order. In pleasing phrase he wel
comed the audience and congratulat
ed them on the treat in store. Seated
on the stage with the Governor were
a number of prominent gentlemen,
from town and country, amongthem
ministers, merchants, farmers, law
yers, doctors, educators, manufac
turers and representatives of other
businesses and professions. Many
ladies were in the audience, and they
seemed to enjoy the speaking and en
tered into the spirit of applause with
as much zest as any one.
(iov. Avcock was introduced by
Mr. A. CZollieoffer, of the Hender
son bar, and candidate for the State
Senate from this district (Warren
and Vance). He spoke eloquently
and forcibly and his remarks elicited
heartiest applause. Mr. Zollicoffer's
speech was a gem of its kind. It was
earnest and able and a forceful pre
sentation ot the issues of the day.
Mr. ZolIicolTer's Introduction
Mr. Zollicoffer spoke as follows:
'Fellow Citizens, Ladies and (lentle-
men: in the performance of this most
pleasant duty which has been assigned
to me by the grace and courtesy of the
chairman of the Democratic Executive
Committee, 1 might well content my
self, and please you, by simply saying,
my fellow citizens, here is the Great Gov
ernor of ii (ireat State. The time, the
occasion and tins presence, however, in
spires me to venture lurtner. 1 come
not, however, to introduce the distin
guished gentleman, who is with us to
day, for to any North Carolina audience
that would be as a thrice told tale; but
in behalf of the people of a county whose
name is immortal, and shall never die, I
come rather to greetandto welcomeyou,
sir. with a heart full of love and grati
tilde, not only as our Chief Magistrate
but as a brother, friend, and member of
a common household. I come to greet
you, sir, in behalf of the heroes of 'Hi to
'.". See you here these venerable men:
these veterans of a noble band? They
are the remnant of many a well fought
held. See them on crutches with dis
niembered limbs with disfigured faces.
They bring with them the scars and
marks of honor from Gettysburg, Man
nassas, Kull Run and Appomattox.
See them with enfeebled bodies, with
stooping shoulders, with hoary hairs,
bowed in humble submission, they are
waiting the Master s call to a higher and
better land, where they may rest from
their labors. Soon little mounds in
yonder cemetery shall mark the last
resting place of some of the world's
greatest soldiery. Their bodies buried
in peace but their names live evermore.'
"In vears gone by they hazarded every
thing in their country's cause. They
bade farewell to home to mothers to
wives to children to sweethearts, and
with eyes only to the front 'they dared
to do or die.
"They have come here today to nay
homage to you, sir, who, as leader of
the great Democratic party, have done
so much to lighten their burdens, and to
give them a few comforts in their declin
ing years. I come to greet you. sir, in
behalf of the hundreds of widows in
North Carolina, some of whom reside
here whose lives have been saddened
whose homes are dark and vacant and
the bones of whose loved ones have
long since mingled with the dust and
sou on the battle helds of lrginia. The
stipend given them is small but the heart
that receives it is large and grateful.
come again to greet you in behalf of
(iod s amicted children the deaf, the
dumb, the blind and the insane. Those
shut out from the beautiful light of this
world the songs of the birds, the gift of

The Lord is my shepherd. 1 shall not

"lie luaketh nie to lie down in green pas

"Again you have heard and heeded the
cry of the poor unfortunate insane as
they have called aloud from dark and
dismal dungeons and prisons cells, where
for no crime or violation of the laws.but
because of affliction, the most terrible of
all. they have been confined with thieves
and felons. Under your guidi.tg hand
the Democratic party, true to its prin
ciples, true to its people, has now made
it possible to say to the world that never

Prolonged applause followed the
conclusion of Mr. Zollicoffer's speech.
Gov. Avcock was warmly greeted.
His appearance was the signal for
renewed and enthusiastic demonstra
tion amounting to an ovation.
He had coine to give a-n account
of his stewardship and the people
were anxious to hear him. The
audience that greeted the Governor
did credit to Henderson and Vance
countv. Thev gave him respectful
hearing and the applause and enthu
siasm was liberal and spontaneous.
He told the people of the pledges he'd
made in the campaign of 1900, and
"I have kept the faith," he said. The
ringing applause brought forth by
this declaration showed that the
crowd was with him.
Governor Aycock Speaks.
After expressing his appreciation
of the very kind and complimentary
manner in which Mr. Zollicoffer had
spoken of him Gov. Aycock assured
the audience that it was a pleasure
to him to meet with the good people
of Vance county. This was one of
few counties in which he did not
speak during the campaign when he
was running for governor. It was
not because he did not want to do
so or felt any the less interest in our
people but because he thought they
did not need to have the gospel of
pure Democracy preached to them
as some others did. The people of
Vance countv were all right then and
in line politically and the result of
next luesday s election will show
that they have not backslided or for
gotten past political history in North
Carolina.
Gov. Avcock said that he proposed
to speak as one representing the
Democratic party and the adminis
tration of which he had been the
head. What he had clone was what
the Democratic party had done be
cause the gceat mass of the people
of North Carolina the manhood
and womanhood and childhood of
the State was back of him and the
Democratic partv. Certain issues
had been raised and certain questions
had been asked, lie was prepared
to meet these issues and answer these
questions. There was nothing to
conceal. The Democratic party is
willing to stand by the record. A
great deal has been said about taxes
and expenses of the government.
Taxes have not been higher but lower
under Democratic rule. The Demo
crats have spent rnonev a great
deal of it but they have spent it
honestly and it did not come out of
the pockets of the people. More
revenue has been derived from the
railroads, which have not heretofore
paid their just proportion of the
taxes, and the insurance companies
doing business in the State, while the
penitentiary is not only self-sustain
ing lmt has become a source of great
revenue to the State under Demo
cratic administration.
Speaking for the cause of education
Gov. Aycock said the reason North
Carolina has not progressed and de
veloped more rapidly is because our
people are not better educated. Not
better educated in books alone but
in the science of agriculture and
manufactures, in the arts and artifices
of money making as the people of the
Northern and New England States
are. We are not primarily a lazy
people but we do not know so much
about making money and less about
saving it. There was one thing, how
ever, that .North Carolinians knew
how to do. Thev were the finest
fighters the world has ever known.
Hut the men who gave immortality
to the armies of Lee and Jackson
were not nan me neroes tnat were
the brave women of the South who
lived at home, in patient poverty,
throughout four Ions: years from the
breaking of the storm until the close
of that sad drama
He referrred eloquently to the con
servative character of the State
which, the first to declare for liberty,
had stayed out of the Union until the
ten amendments guaranteeing the
rights of States had been inserted in
the Constitution; which, afterwards,
had stayed in the Union until the
call for troops by Lincoln had forced
her to be for or against her neigh
bors, when she had gone into the
war as tempestuously as she had
first stood for the rights of man,
touching elbows with her neighbors,
to tne nutter ot the battle nag.
The lack of progress of the State
in the past cannot be traced to a
want of patriotism, to a deficiency
in natural advantages, but it must
be laid to the cause of ignorance and
illiteracy. North Carolina, Gover
nor Aycock declared, was awakening.
In ten years he looked to see her
rival Maine, a State from which he
had recently returned, in wealth and
all progress. hat wns needed was
peace and education, so we may
go forward to the great destiny that
is deserved ol
people.

The Constitution which the people
of this State, the pioneers of liberty,
had first declared in Halifax in 177,
which contained the provision thntJ"1 remedies for four years. It's jut as
ior tne promotion of religion, mor
ality and knowledge and the good
government and happiness of men,
theeducatiou of the people is neces
sary and shall ever be encouraged,
had been followed until the children
of every section of the State had the
advantage of a school term of four
months. To carry out this provi
sion of the Constitution the Demo
cratic administration has spent
200,000 in the weak districts of the
State; it had cost that to obev its
mandates which had been fulfilled.
And for putting this rnonev into the
minds of the children of North Caro
linain laying the foundation of
character and usefulness in the future
manhood and womanhood of the
State the Democratic partv has no
apologies to offer. If there is any
man who would oppose that expendi
ture as wrong he is not fit to bo a
' Democrat, declared the Governor in
ringing phrase.
Gov. Aycock said that in the caru
paigh of 1900 lie made one hundred
and eight speeches, or rather he de- -livered
the same speech one hundred
and eight times, because the same
j audience did not have to hear it but ;
once, he humorously added, and in
every one he had spoken one sentence
which he was at this time willing to
have live. He said then that if he
was chosen as Governor, his every
endeavor and all the power which he
could bring to bear would be exerted
towards the education of the chil
dren of the State. That sentence he
had spoken from Hanging Dog to
Chicamicomico and, when bethought
of the fact that if the State six hun
dred miles in length were swung
around on Hanging Dog as an exis
it would reach to Chicago, bis pride
in the fact of the unprecedented
majority of 60,354 votes that was
given mm was intensified by the
magnitude of the people and the sec
tion which lie had been chosen to
serve.
Touching on State expenditures
for the Confederate veterans, the deaf
and blind, the schools of the State,
the Governor admitted that they
were large and challenged criticism.
L.e was specific as to amount and
declared that while much money had
been spent for these and other need
ed and necesary causes, the Demo
cratic party would spend much more
and asked if there was a man who
objected to or begrudged one dollar
so spent to hold up his hand.
He referred to the fact that it had
cost Russell's administration f 220,
000 to take care of the State's
prisoners in the penitentiary, while
under Democratic administration
the prisoners had proved a source of
profit of over f 100,000 to the State.
Each takes care of its own, said
the Governor; the Republican party
of the convicts, the Democrats of the
children.
Replying to the Republican plea
that the people were taxed to death,
he showed that the tax rate under
Russell was 21 cents, under the
present administration 21 cents flat.
For eight years, he said, the Re
publicans had been shouting McKin
ley and prospesity. If that cry was
true their charge that tax assess
ments were too high was false; if tax
assessments were too high their plea
of prosperity was untrue.
You hear much of McKinley and
prosperity; nothing of Roosevelt and
prosperity. Whenever Roosevelt's
name is mentioned, the temptation
is too great to shout "Roosevelt and
Booker Washington."
The Democratic party is proud of
what it has spent, but the Republi
cans fail to call attention to the in
creased revenue which had come from
the railroads under Democratic ad
ministration, an increase ot 00 per
cent, and the increased revenue of
more than 100 per cent from banks.
Since the election of 1900 no State
had progressed or blossomed as had
North Carolina. It had cost money.
Who regretted the cost? Barring
the money that had been put into
the minds of the children and spent
for the benefit of the widows and the
old soldiers, the present administra
tion had cost far less than the former
one.
The Governor touched briefly on
Roosevelt and the Washington inci
dent, saying that the danger lay in
the idea that the President was the
representative of the people; what
ever style of uress he adopted, any
body could wear, whatever-he did
anybody could do, whomever- he
dined anybody could dine. By the
Booker Washington incident the
President was plainly setting, by in
ference. an example, and teaching
the principle of social equality.
This is a Caucasian race, declared
the tiovernor, and it will never sub
mit to or approve of such a practice
or such an example. He had a right
to talk this way, because, following
his oath, he had gone over the State
and courted unpopularity, in the
determination to safe-guard the
rights of the negro, but we could not
be ruled bv him.
Gov. Avcock paid his respects to a
circular issued by the chairman of
the Republican executive committee
ol Vance county (Mr. T. T. Hicks)
In this certain questions had been
asked and certain answers demanded
the speaker answered them most
effectually and scored a telling point
at every turn. He said he had the
chairman in a corner and he would
put in a hole and make him pull the
hole in after him before he got
through with him. The applause
