TIIJE . JtyLE JGH DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, HY vr1 912. THAT"INSULT TO TEACHERS JJ Colonel Varoer Replies to Charges Made Against the Underwood Bureau To the Editor of The Times: I have issued the following letter, which 1 would be glad to have you print: To the Editor of The News and Ob server: On the first page of your issue of Saturday, May 11, 1912, there is a headline reading "Circulars Insult Honest Teacher" over an article re ferring to campaign literature sent out in advocacy of Hon. Oscar W. Underwood for president; the article was inspired by a letter written to me by a teacher whom you do not name, but whom 1 have no hesita tion in identifying as Dr. M. C. S. Noble, of Chapel Hill. By the way, it may be interesting to note that the copy of the letter sent me was marked "confidential, " but as he has seen lit to give out the text to you, 1 presume that he has no objection to my stating who wrote It. Dr. Noble was irritated because every time .Mr. Wilson's name was called in the letter, it appeared "Professor Wilson," and from this you argue that I have insulted the teachers of the state. ! confess, I stand amazed, tor while 1 am not a worshipper of the ex-president of Princeton by any means. ;till 1 consider him a very able man and I had no idea that it would insult the teachers of the state to class him among them. In tact, 1 am still of the opinion that you are mistaken; the evidence of your headline to the contrary not withstanding, 1 do not believe that there is a teacher in North Caro lina who would be aggrieved at the comparison. Throughout the body of the article you consistently endeavor to give the impression that the Underwood bureau has been sending out circu lars abusive of the teaching profes sion; you never say so straight out, tor you know very well that no such circulars have been sent out, but by- repeated innuendo and insinuation you strive to give that false impres sion. For instance, how would the average reader construe this sen tence: "Sneers at 'poverty-stricken professors' and like utterances are not relished either by the teaching professional or the general public. Nine men out of ten would infer that the Underwood bureau had been sneering at some teacher on account of his poverty, yet you have not said so and you will not say so, for you know that it is not true. The sole time that the expression "poverty stricken" has been used in Under wood compaign literature is in the following sentence in reference to -Mr. Wilson's hundred-thousand-dollar campaign in Wisconsin: "The poverty-stricken pedagogue has been carrying on a campaign that would have bankrupted all the rest of them in two months." I will not insult the intelligence of the editor of The News and Observer suggesting that he is so dull of mind that he has not understood that the sneer is not at Mr. Wilson's poverty, but at his pose Lest you may think that you have not received all the evidence in the case, I am enclosing in this letter a copy of every piece of literature that lias been issued from the Under Knees Became Stiff Five Years of Severe Rheumatism The cure of Henry J. Goldstein, 14 Barton Street, Boston, Mass., Is anoth er victory by Hood's Sarsaparilla. This great medicine has succeeded in many cases where others have utterly failed. Mr. Goldstein says: "I suf fered from rheumatism Ave years, It kept me from business and caused ex cruciating pain. My knees would be come as stiff as steel. I tried many medicines without relief, then took Hood's Sarsaparilla, soon felt much better, and now consider myself en tirely cured. I recommend Hood's." Get It today In usual liquid form or chocolated tablets called Sarsatabs. mittee. They would have made fine progress if they had attempted to carry on their campaign through the columns of The News and Observer, which will not even allow them space to reply to direct at tacks! You are strong for the rule of the people as long as the people are with you, but when the Underwood men attempt to get an expression from the people on their candidate, you are shocked be yond expression, and all but charge them with having attempted to bribe the primary officials. I would not be understood as accus ing the editor of The News and Ob server of dishonesty personally, for such a charge would be ridiculous on its face; but I do accusehimof hav ing allowed this enthusiasm fr one candidate to carry him . far beyond the bounds which a fair-minded man should never allow himself to cross. And I further more charge him with using perhaps unconsci ously the candidacy of Woodrow Wilson as a mask behind which lurks The News and Observer's real candidate, William Jennings Hryail. I shall be very much surprised if this ever sees the light in The News and Observer; it would be contrary to the settled policy of that journal to publish a reply to any attack it chooses to make. But I shall take care to see that it is published in pa pers whose eyes are tut so blinded by the dazzling glory of the Nebras kan that they are unable to distin guish between good and evil. H. B.

You know very well that if all the facts were laid before them the people of ."Nortn Carolina would be for Under wood by an overwhelming majority, and you know that your only chance of making any impression upon the voters is by means of a campaign of misrepresentation and garbled news reports such as the one under con sideration. You know that .Mr. Wil son has been absolutely out of, the running for six weeks; you know mat his friends are even now ad mitting that he has no chance; but you also Know that a certain candi date from the west Is looming up larger every day, and if, after the second or third ballot the North Car olina delegation should be handed over to him, you know whose would be the glory and the spoils! You are national committeeman from North Carolina, and supposed to be disinterested, and yet you are send ing out letter marked "personal" making discreditable Insinuations about, one of the candidates, and at the same time you hold up your hands of holy horror when the supporters of Mr. Underwood, by means of the malls, appeal directly to the people, right over the heads of the national committee as well as the state com- ( Special to The Times.) Statesville, May 14. Never be fore have the democratic voters of Iredell county seemed to vitally con cerned iii a local political issue and never has there been so much "politicing" as just now. The stir is on account of the movement to put county officers On salaries. A mass meeting favoring this reform nominated ex-Lieutenant Governor Turner for the senate and Messrs. S. Frontis and T. M.
