To the Editor of The Journal: lour retereuce to me as a "bitter op loneiit to the Mecklenburg mau" and to tne Jiarshville Home's "deuuueia tion of Mr. Morrison and his support ers, ' is very much overdrawn. 1 have tried to Inject enough humor Into my editorial paragraphs relative m Mr. Morrison to make them free from the charge of bitterness." Personally, mere exists between myself aud M Morrison a. spirit or friendshlu us less Mr. Morrison's friendship is af leered by my opposition to his politi cal views and policies. And I pre sume mat .Mr. Morrison knows that, as an independent Democratic voter who has been voting against moss oacK partisan stand-patters for twen ty years, 1 oppose him more for what he hasn't stood for and for what he doesn t stand for than for any person al reasons. There are two factions of Demo crats in North Carolina and iu the na tion. They differ as widely on fun damental ideas of government as If they belonged to separate political parties. Personally. I have made study of the men iu public life In this State and I think I have a fairly cor rect Idea as to as to which school of politics the leaders belong. One fac tion is non-progressive. That is, the ieaders never advance any new ideas or theories or government and never come out iu favor of any advanced theories until the leaders in the pro gressive faction have created enough public sentiment in their favor make them popular. The uou-progres- sives are always extreme partisans who never go any deeper into the study of political questions than their party precedents aud all their study or the science or government -Is cir cumscribed under partisan bias that makes them reject all theories of gov eminent that have not been prevl ously approved by their party "in con volition assembled.' They seem to have great difficulty in keeping up with standards of the ages In which they live and their minds dwell so much on antiquated standards that I hey do not appear to have any pro gressive visions or either (he present or future. The antiquated reward-for-party service, party-spoils, office-creating methods of governmental admlnlstra tion have cost the tax-payers of State and nation billions of dollars for which there have been no returns. The man who can rise to a high degree or statesmanship and apply such practl cal business methods In governments administration as will give the voters and tax payers "one hundred cents for every dollar expended will be a ben efuctor whose name will deserve to live in political history. At least one of the candidates for governor has this Ideal and it is refreshing to see a candidate stand for something new t!tat Is worth while. Antiquated political theories and mei hods are as Inadequate to meet ex istln : conditions and deal with the in- e-icapnble problems of our new clvlli- July for conslihration. I yield to no man my loyalty to th good women of North Carolina. I lt-ok upon them bs having been created for a higher and nobler purpose than to be mixed up In politics. I have been, and am now, unalterably opposed to woman suf frage. I may be m'-itaken. as I some times am, but I do not believe that a majority of the people of this county are in favor of It. If a majority of the Democratic voters of the county are in favor of it I should deem It my duty as their representative to vote for this amendment or resign as" a representative for this county, and 1 should act accordingly. lL-hatavar nmv he mV own illdl- tiarnson owns mrce nsuiauqua cir-.T,d , ODMoa ln this or In any otn cults.

Fifty-six thou sand dollars was spent in new equip ment by Mr. Harrison this year. Juet back from the north, Mr. W. H.Gordon is relating about the efforts of John Wannamaker, the merchant prince of Philadelphia and New York, to bring about a reduction In the high price of clothing. Despite, .the fact that his goods are priced to. yield a net return of less than 5 percent, Mr. Wannamaker is offering his $20,000,- 000 Hock of merchandise at a reduc tion of 20 per cent. He Is doing this solely to aid the movement to cause a readjustment In prices; thus, accord ing to Mr. Gordon, performing a great service to mankind. His efforts are meeting with success, too. Other large merchants in Philadelphia and New York, says Mr. Gordon, are mak ing similar reductions. ' Some manu facturers, becoming alarmed, others desiring to aid In the price-breaking movement, are offering their goods to Mr. Wannamaker at prices consider ably under the market. In a sjgned statement, the Philadelphia merchant says: "The statement that there is 20 per cent reduction from the prices , already marked on the merchandise i means an actual taking off of one- iorltv ln acting as their representa tlve so long as I hold a representative position. ' "In order that I may be fully ad vised In this matter I most earnestly request that your committee prepare b oax to be used at each precinct st the primary in June so that there may be an expression or the Demo cratic voters on this subject. J-et those who ravor the amendment cast a ballot "For Woman Suffrage," and ihma who are ODoosed to it cast a ballot, "Against Woman Suffrage." "I shall thank you Jo make this or der at an early date and give full no tice of vour action so that there may be a fair test of the wishes of the peo ple or this county on tnis mucn uis cussed subject.

After two sensational trials here he was acquitted. Judge Flnley denounced the action of the Juries In a public statement which caused Intense feeling here at the time. One vote In the primary will Insure Cathey's nomination ror sheriff on the Independent ticket and carry him Into the November election.
