THOMPSON GIVhS REASONS Tells Senator Butler Why He Opposes Him For National Committeeman Unusual interest was manifested todav In a letter that Dr. Cyrus Thompson has written to Hon. Marion Butler with reference to his candidacy for national Jcoinmittee nian, and many delegates were en deavoring to read the letter, It follows: . "Jacksonville, X. C. May 11.1912. "Hon. Marlon Butler, Washington, D. C. "Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your letter o ft.lie Sth inat, which requires answer because of the uncertainty of mv attendance at the state con vention. ' If I go to the state convention I shall go instructed by ray own mo tion for Roosevelt and personally as a very particular friend and sincere admirer of Carl Duncan who in point of personal integrity and ca pacity and party service and devo tion is, I should say, over topped by no republican among his traducers in North Carolina. My estimate of Duncan is based upon intimate ac quaintance through long association and critical observation. I am not an officeholder. I have no political - aspirations and my interest in poli tics is no more than that which should belong ot any Intelligent citi zen. I note with despair of peace in the party that you are using the same phraseology in your letter that flowed in such rank luxuriance be lore and at the time of the Greens boro convention two years ago, which resulted then in victory over Duncan lor you and Morehead, rather, let nie say, for you, because I take it that you know as well as I know that, so long as Morehead is associated with you, he is no more than a locum tenes, a mere figure-head In politics. And that might not be objectionable If you could carry the republican party to success in North Carolina; but you cannot do this in this or . another campaign. The result In the last election must tell you that If it telis you anything. The substitution of our referee system for the old welfare system may Inure to your personal advantage, but not to" the advantage and growth of the repub lican party In the state. Xo Personal Keeling;. ' With no sort of personal feeling In the matter but to be iierfectly frank even at the risk of brutal can dor, looking at the party's condition and diagnosing Its ailments as I would a man's if I speak to you at I an or hip party's welfare, I must say that I i my judgment vour Inter ference and attempted leadership of u is tue most serious impediment ana oostruetion In the way of Its growth. In other words, I do not see now you can help the party In North Carolina, except by the exercise of a rigorous policy of hands off. if you would let it alone, it would grow; bnt you fondle it over much, and it loses caste by your desirous atten tions. In other words you and your record as stated by the democracy, whether true or untrue Is Immate rial, is and will i continue for years to be that party's most valuable, all sufficient, and easily convertible as set. If I were face to face with you uunamunK ior in success of repub licanism in North Carolina, while I know you too well to believe that you would be advised by me, I should say to you, 'take no more . hand in politics than ,1 do, , stick . seven days in the week to your pro fession as I do and the party will grow and the people, will come to their owa regardless of 'refer' system, new or old But Just as long as you persist in giving democratic press speakers the opportunity to yell 'Butler and -Bonds,- W-mn-mTai7ure "NT In-1 delibly written over the brow of re publicanism of North Carolina. When my efforts in my friend's behalf only route and strengthen his enemies Heave him alone; when my well meant ministrations only irritate and injure my patient, I safely retire and count the wisdon of nature more serviceable than the excellence cf my art. If thereby I lose my fee, I am content with the better com pensation which conies fromi the sense of having well served my pa tient at all events. "Assuring yon that there Is noth ing of personal feeling in the letter, but only a candid statement of what appears to me and seems not to have appeared to you, and with personal good wishes, 1 am yours sincerely, (Signed) "CYKl'S THOMPSON."

W'ashi lf-'toti. May . '1.1.--The river and harbor appropriaiton bill, re ported ' hv Senator Nelson irom the commerce committee of the . upper branch of congress is, in many ways, the ' most .important measure the committee has reconi mended in years, as it urges legislation that cannot nelp but prove of a far-reaching character. In extending the scope of the usual Investigations' on the part of the engineers which are required in order mat comprehensive reports may be made on the same, the com mittee emphasizes t ne position taken by the national rivers and harbors congress early in its history, that of fixing a time limit for the completion of some of the large projects in order that the public may be prepared to use the harbor or waterway this Im proved. The bill, however, goes farther thjin any similar 'measure ap propriating -money, for rivers and harbors as it calls upon the chief engineers of the .army and the board of engineers for rivers and harbors to report to congress, "in which shall be included a preliminary report not later than December 11 ." 1 912, upon the saving, as well as other advant ages, which can be. accomplished by the adoption of the continuing con tract system, the rapidity witli which projects should he completed, upon emthods of standardization by which the waterways of the country may lie improved uniformly in propor tion to their capacities." To enable the board of engineers to properly secure this Information an appro priation of JlOO.udil is- made. While this is a decided step forward the commerce committee is not content to stop there but requires that there shall be inquiries made into both private and public terminals, and transfer and . dock facilities con tiguous to the waterway to be im proved. ; . ; The question of terminals has been one of very great importance ever since the adoption of the present system of treating the waterways of the country, for one of the most seri ous handicaps to water transporta tion has been the lack of public doc k facilities at reasonable rates and within the reach of all desiring to use them. - "The tendency has ' been toward ownership and control of such fa cilities by railqoads,'-. the ''. report says, "or by thes and steamship lines acting in conjunction with them, a -practice not conducive to healthy, competition on the .cheap handling of freigh. While many communities, including several of the larger cities, are awakening to the importance-of freeing commerce from this handicap, by municipal or otlier public ownership or control of docks and terminal facilities, there is much remaining to be done." Senator Xelson, chairman of the commerce committee, who is looked upon as the father of the continuing A. J. CURES OLD SORES To every person suffering with an old sore or chronic ulcer, the very best news in this paper is contained in the present article. It is pood news hecaus iffis true; it tells of a way to get rid of these plague spots which so oS en sap the strength and vitality, and best of all. this Dermanent cure is an reach of every one. It is an absolutely true statement to say that every old sore or ch ronic ulcer exists solely because of bad blood. Outside contamina te ns or influences may increase the local inflammation, but such thi ngs have nothing to do with keeping the place open. It is the in fec ted blood discharging Its impurities through a weak spot on the fles h that does this, and the sore will continue, gradually growing wo rse. until the blood is purified of the exciting cause. See how nature points to the cause through the symptoms. The inF animation, discharge, discolored flesh, and the fact that external ap plications never have any curative effect on the sore, show that if r.p down in the circulation there is a morbid cause which prevents C place from healing. But more convincing proof that bad blood is r .sponsible for old sores, is furnished by the fact that even removing w ry visible trace or the ulcer by surgical operation does not cure; .re sore always returns. the exposition at the auditorium Wednesday morning at 9 Vclock.

When the blood has been purified there is no loneer anv in flammatory or infectious matter to irritate the place and nature causes a natural and certain healing of the ulcer. When S. S. S. has cleansed the circulation and the place is well, it is not a surface cure, not simply a smoothing over of the outward evidence, but it is a perfect and per manent cure, because every vestige of the old cause has been driven out. S. S. S. is made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, cleansing and invigorating in their nature, and of great tonic value. It is a medicine adapted to persons of any age, and is just as effective with the old as with the young or middle aged. Under the purifyirigand tonic effects of S. S. S. the system is greatly strengthened and benefited. To hear of S. S. S. has been good news to thousands, it is good news for you. If you wish any special advice about an old sore or ulcer write for our free book, and ask our medical department to give any instruc tions you may feel the need of. No charge for the book or advice.
