AND (News and Observer of the Cth.) i!he following editorial will appear in tiie Greensboro News today with reference to the action of the Repub lican State convention that is, it wil apear if the News continues to write? as it has been doing during the past t:-n days: T.ie Republican party in conven tion assembled in this city yesterday ..depted as its slogan for the cam paign cf 1010 BUTLER ECOZE, BOODLE, BONDS. i .:e party was put in the hands of Marion Butkr who is believed to b.' in tie employ of the whiskey trust. If the p.vrty shall win in the campai gn the patronage will be distributed by Butter. It is not yet known what shall' fall to the strenuous and Per sistent district attorney of the West ern district, or who will go to Set- tie He and Holton are not playing the game for their health. It is ate toe scon, to say wihat wild go to Col. David Henry Blair. David is always cm deck if the transportation is ar ranged and there are no extra charges. There will be abundance of money to manage the campaign. Exactly where it come from is not yet known, but there will be a plenty. Who made Mr. Butler a "man of means?" Whence comes the boodle for the expensive campaign he has been waging so "assiduously" since Januarv last? Are those irrepressiibile bondholders" behind him? Are they expec-t:Q legislation favorable to their convention in the event Mr. But ler's astltute campaign results in a Republican Legislature? Or can it be that the Whiskey Trust is backing Mr. Butler in the hope of a '"booze" plank in the pafclform. The atmosphere is at last clarified. No longer as there effort to put Mr. Butler behind the curtain. With both feet he is in the battle, bearing afore and aloft the colors. Develop ments have reached that point wihen no one is reckless enough to deny that Butler is the master hand in his camp. This, then, brings us face to face with the objection to Mr. More head for State chairman. Plainly, logically and unavoidably ihe ejection of Mr. Morehead means that the paramount issue which will ling from every platform, newspaper and stump in North Carolina tfrcta August 10 to November 8, 1910, will be Butlsrism, with all that the term expresses and implies. If there is a Republican reader who doubts let him file and preserve this pre diction for future reference. Whatever may be the strength of chaiacter of Mr. Morehead, however, laudible and unselfish may be his ambition, he has not the power to stay or prevent the inevitable issue Lcrii of his connection with Butler. It is fruitless for us to proclaim that there is nothing in such an issue We may think so. We may believe so. We may swear so. But the peo pie have long ago spoken upon that issue. It is idle to expect a reversal of the verdSct. But you say there is nothing in the issue or cry of Butlerism. No thouightiul student of affairs political in North Carolina well make such a contention seriously. We are not discussing the justice or injustice of such an issue. We have to do now only wit iii what may be its effect on the coming campaign. The unfurling of the Democratic banner with this issue emblazoned cm its folds will be a bugle call for a united front agains. us. It will drive from us the inde- I pendent element now anxious that we shall, wan. If there is anything worse in tne nau-ciosed eye or the average Democratic than 'rugger ' it is "bonds and booze" We are reluct ant to interpret all that there is in the issue which Mr. Morehead's elec tion under the circumstances t3rpifi es and signifies.

McMURRAY, ADAMS AND BUTLER The Gore investigatoini recalls the litis-atinn Hot 1 libel cf Adams. This lawTer McMur ray has become rich representing In dans an has charged them outra geous fees. He is now in the lime light again, and it is shown that his firm was to get a three million dol lar fee if Senator Gore and others had not stepped iin, and protested. It was an $800,000 fee, if wemistiake not certainly it was a "whopper" that the court of which Adams was a member, awarded to McMurray. There was much, criticism of the action of the court in approving McMurray's fee, and Butler printed that Adams had been bribed a a judge in appro v ing the fee. Butler was indicted for libel and ionv!cted in the Supreme Court. Ir is said that Adams and Butler have agreed and tihe civil suit against Butler1 iWiH not be pressed. Tne exposure of the outrageous sum McMurray and others charge: the Indian) will do good. The criticiisms cf judge Adams and the other mem bers of the court for allowing the; big tee were deserved. It was not nec essary to charge that these, juidges were bribed to convince everybody that they were not qualified tjo act as judges. The ailowanceas they made wers out of a.l proportion to the ser v:?e Tendered. If the men on that court had been as courageous and wise as Gore the big allowances woul net nave been made. Tne live Beavers are gone. but you can get the liniment at Lyon's Drug store. BUTLER. (Greensboro Daily News.) j "Is the memory of the people collecj tivelv less HabJ to hold to important party event,than that of an individual and "if a man is not to be properly and correctly judged by his past re cord by what s.ial! he be judged? Cai. the people of any party place confi dence in a man who has been traitor to another party? When Marion Butler was a Demo cratic state senator from Sampson county, a brilfiiant, dashing young fellow, .he at once attracted atten tion. A group of Democrats were one day discussing him, having read what the newspapers were saying of him, and there wras expression of almost unanimous opinion he was the most promising of the younger; Democrats in the state. But one man present?-also a Democrat who ! had been silent, spoke up; and quot ing from memory, after the lapse of some -0 years, thisis about the lan guage he used: "I can't agree with you gentlemen in regard to Marion Butler. It is true that he as bright and daring and shrewd, I was in college- with him, I know him. He is as traitorous as he is bright, as treacherous as he is daring, and as contemptbly mean as he is shrewd. A man who is disloyal to a friend will be a traitor to his party of the public trust. Just watch hiim. It will not be many years before he will show histrue) character and those who are praising; him now will be cursing him. Prophetic words or words spoken frefcn a knowledge gained from inti mate realtionship and experience, no matter whnch. Refresh your memory as to the sequel. About two years later, when the Democratic party nominated an Alli ance man, Elias Carr dm 1892 for gov ernor, Butler wrote an editorial in his paper. The Caucasian, then publfisih ed at Clinton, urging the Alliance people to stand by the Democratic nominee and not the Tihird or peo ples party, then in progress formation urging course" on the ground that the; could not hope to succeed din the Third party movement except "through, the suffrance of the Republ ican party, and we would be at thie mercy of that party both now and hereafter." Listen, two weeks after the date of the paper containing that appeal writ tne by Marion Butler, same Marion Butler was chairman of the Populist convention in Raleigh that nominated Pat, Exum for governor against the farmer candidate, Ellas Carr. In your mind you can trace the events of the succeeding years and the part played by Butler in those events. After a few years bis political star went down, and he left this state ta king up his abode in Washington; city from whdoh place he has used ihis fox y and traitorous ingenenujty to knife his former associates and alli es back here in North Carolina, rstur ing every convention year to throw into the ranks of the Republican par ty all the bitterness and discord it was possible for hin to discharge. And this year he has bobbed up again. Where he is now ?and what is he doing? Down at Morehead City in the best apartment in the mammoth Atlantic ! Hotel, where the cool cceca berezes give him comfort and immunity from from the hot summer sun, with a stenographers, daily bombarding the Republicans of the state with advice and sticking his long keen knife in the direction cf the vitals of the men who have rema'ned true to themselves, their party and their home state. How do you like it? Think of the gentlemen of the fields, the mild, the shop and the business office. A gumshoe pol-ti-iaii frcm runaway home has "come back" and in ease and luxury sits coi placent stroking his pointed beard, and with cool breezes and cool drinks galore in a far-famed summer rescrt. PIE AND PROMISE OF THE WORK. PIE DID (News and Observer). By the use of money -according to fho Oppnshnrn pvc mul t hp nc the tivity of Federal officeholders, the Butler-Morehead combination won out in the Republican State Conven tion, yesterdav. The only 5s sue was; Who wilH distribute the Federal pie the Duncan dynasty or the Butler Mcrehead combine? Federal office holders were divided a week ago,, but during the past week the bulk of them calme to the conclusion that the Butler-Morehead crowd would win jand made a rush to get on the Feder al' oince uistriDuton wrscn. it was whispered that Duncan had begged the President to appoint Adams as district attorney just on the eve of the Convention, and that, instead of doinlg so, there came a tip that Taft wanted the More-hc ad-Butler Com bination to win out. Whether that tip" was straight or not, many pie eaters and many who are in politics to get a piece of pie believed it, and the result of their belief is seen in the vote. No Republican State Convention ever failed to- go the way the Federal officeholders decreed. This was no exception. This 3rear the Butler-Morehead forces divided the pie eaters and there was a belief that Taft was with the. new combine. Tihe Iteading paper published by a Republican in Western North Caro lina, is the Asheville Gajzette-New-s. Its editor Hildebrand was the edi tor of the Greensboro News in 1908 and he know the sort of man, Lead Morehead, is. Here is his estimate: "After a main uses for a few months in the same atmosphere in which ma rian Butler1 moves and has nils being; he is If-ikely to become abnormally' cal loused, but we have an idea that John Motley Morehead 's complh'Cent self esteelm was appreciably diminisra ed by a persual of (interview given the State press by judge Adams. It is conceivable that the, personally, is able to face such discourses with composure, but it should damn him in the eyes of a normal human being. "We do not hiesitate to say that of the two, Morehead easily presents th( more contemptible figure. Butler has at least, been consistent in his fals ifications, and in his charge of treach ery against his party leaders. In short, in this matter of the ehairman;- ahip the principlie, Butler, would b's much more acceptable' than the crea ture, Mere-head, whose letter dis closes him as the ingiate we have al ways believed him to be. "In December Morehead wrote Judge Adams that the Butler char ges, which imputed disloyal! ty to his party leaders, were false. In July he is found buying space in the Demo cratic press to declare the truth of charges which, in an honest interval, he dedared were fake, and he is now proud to compromise the tail ot the ButDar knife. 'Morehead and Butler have be come arnaligated into one, with but a single thought Butler's thoagiu Morehead may protest that he is net dominated by Butler, and in th;se protestations he may have the assist ance of literary bureau friends, but ii the end with the physical evidence before them, most people will simply take the view that they are protest ing much over. "Mr. Duncan told the convention in his home county the other day that Morisbead had gone to the White House and told the President that the Republican National committeeman had begun life as a common boatman We have no doubt this is true, lor it is the Morehead kind of politics Morehead is easily the smallest man mentally, that has ever been sent to Congress from any district in the State. It is not merely his small back-biting that has shown this to be time; the man's meaure was taken when, of his own volition, as a matter of individual choice and taste, he began to fetch and carry; for Marion Butler." It is too bad. Charlie Wildes and WMfis Briggs offered to make the Republican party in Wake county, re spectable and hold the officers but Claude Bernard and Lester Butler and Ham Jones, and HiE King said, "Nay, Nay, Pauline." "JINE EARLY." (The News and Observer) The result at Greensboro seals Claude Bernard, Lester Butler, Hill E. King and Ham Jones as the lead ers of the RepubMcarX party in Wake county. Tihey will proceed at once to organize and control that "respect able Republican party" that has so long been advertised to appear. It wiiiil positively appear, under the personal direction of the above Big Four. All desiring to jine should apply earliy and "avoid the rush." m m The Greensboro News said of But ler, the Boss of the Radical party; "Peferer," Contemptible traducer; If there is a spark of manhood and decency about you that has not been smothered by the slime of comardice, be ashamed of yourself:' And what it said then will cause honest Repub licans to refuse to follow Butler's leadership. SHALL WE MAKE BUTLERISM THE ISSUE?"" ( Greensboro Daily News.) "The clock has struck. The hour is he-re when to mince words is to play the truant. Face to face with a great situation it is up to every Republican in North Carolina to give thought serious and earnest, to the facts before him. Republican of North Cs.ro r",m are confronted wit'i a condition of more far reaching im port than they have dreamed. The question en voiced by this condition is, whom shall we select for our state campaign for the chairmanship it Shall we elect Mr. Morehead simpl? because he is selected, groomed and chaperoned by Mr. Butifer and be cause Mr. Butler has assumed charge and m conducting, controling and do minating his campaign? If there lin gered in the public mind any doufbt as to the truth of Mr. Butler's abso lute domination of the Morehead caampaign for the chairmanship it was refaioved by the three columns of hot air in the Charlotte Observer of yesterday fresh from the Butler press bureau at Morehead City. This "MAN OF MEANS," says the Charlotte Observer, began his cam paign for Mr. Morehead in January last and "HAS BEEN WORKING AS SIDUOUSLY EVER SINCE HE.BUT LER, IS DICTATING LETTERS BY THOUSANDS AND RECEIVEING RE PUBLICAN LEADERS AND DELE GATIONS FROM ALL OVER TPIE STATE." The atmosphere is at last clari fied. No longer is their effort to put Mr. Butler behind the curtain. With both feet he is in the battle bearing afore and aloft the colors of hi fac tion. Development has reached the point wihen no one is reckless enough to deny that ButV-r is the master hand in li "s camp. Th's, then, brings us face to face with cur objection to Mr. Morehead for state chairmaan. Plainly, logically and unavoidably, the election cf Mr. Morehead means that the paramount issue which will ring from every platform, newspaper and stump In North Carolina from August 10 to November 8, 1910, will be BUTLERISM, with all that the term expresses! and implies. If there is a Republican reader who doubts let him file and preserve this pre dictioni for future reference. Who made Mr. Butler a "man of means?" Whence comes the boodle for the expensive campacgn he has been waging so "assiduously" since January last? Are those irrepressible "bond holders" behind him? Are they expecting legislation favorable to their contention, in the event Mr. Butler's astute campaign results in the hope of a "booze' plank in the platform next Wednesday? These are the questions in the public imind by the money which is public word. These are the inquires being expended in North Carolina un der direction of Mr. Butler to con trol the convention next Wednesday, Whatever may be the strength of character of Mr. Morehead, however, laudible may be his purpose, however patriotic and unselfish may be his ambition, the has not the power to stay or prevent the inevitable issue born of his connection with Butler, j - It is fruitless for us to proclaim jthat there is nothing in such an tis sue. We- may think so. We may be i lieve so. We may swear so. But the ! people have long ago spoken upon that issue. It is idle to expect a revival of the ve-rdict. The practi cal question is this: Can we afford to ni-uie or force- &ach an isiu-e when : it is i.et nt-ceary, and when it can; be so easily avoided by the election) of some other good man for c-hairmani aivl the re-election of Mr. More-ieau to Congress? Mr. Butler, a "man of means," who is in the campaign "because he lbves the game," neither des-res nor needs an offi.ee. Mr. More head, summering in his handsome seaside villa, a m-lliouaiie, accord ing to Secretary Grissom, and acc ording to t.h- latest authorized an. nouiicement from Lis bureau, "would n't Hit his filler lor the chairman hhiiv"' and drawing at present a s-al'ary of sewn thousand and five hu dred dollars a year, "does not give a tinker's dream if he don't get it." This being true, why should the hU--CC-.-S of the Republican party of North Carolina be jeopardized or imperi led by this issue? Shall we be greet ed by the -ambition of the.se two men who accciding to the Charlotte) Observer correspondent, are in the game for the mere love of i, cr shall we be guided by a consideration for the good of the party. Three days more remain for an answer to this proposition. But you say there is nothing in the issue or cry of Butlerism. No thou ghtful student of affairs political in North Carolina will make such a contention seriously. We are not discussing the justice or the injustice of such an issue. Wre have to do now) only with whatmay be its effect in the coming campaign. The unfurling of the Democratic banner with this issue emblazoned on its folds will be a bugK call for a united front against us. It will drive from us the inde pendent element now anxious that we shall win. If there is anything worse in the half closed eye of the average Democrat than "nigger" it is "bonds and booze." We are re luctant to interpret all that there is in the issue which Mr. Morehead's election under the circumstances ty pifies and signifies. Without min cng matters and without going fur ther than the situaion demands we have felt impelled to sound this uote of warning. Less than three months wil! disclose the strength or the weal ness of our position. The campaign is upon us. In every crisis of this character demanding a man he can be found. It is tip to us to pick a man wbose election will not make, an issue which spells defeat and dis aster. Shall we do it and save the party from, division and wreck? The Thoughtless, the blind and the reck less may try to divide and cry do'wjn, the danger of sucih an issue, but the Republican who reads, and thinks tor himself will take it home for reflection and remembrance. W are not writing in a spirit of personal hostility. We have none. We are soberly and earnestlri uttering a warning before it is too late-There are other honors to which they may umpire, but the chairmanship iis the favorite asset cf honor of the party to be bestowed without fear cr fa vor for the good of the party and not to gratify the vanity or ambition of any man. Let us confer tais honor then, upon some one who will bring us peace and honor and victory." ' The Distribution." (Daily News.) If Mr. Morehead should be elected state chairman we are a bit curious to know just how7 the spoils and lienors wll be distributed in the event the Republican's carry the state. If Mr. Butler is to succeed Senator Simmons and Mr Morehead is to have the scalp of Senator Over man, we -are anxious to know what shall fall to the strenuous and Per sistent district atorney of the west- em distric And then, there ite Mr. Settle, who is to be reckoned writh on the first f;cor cf any proposition for division of honors. Beth Mr. Holten and Mr. Settle were in the gamee for thei Sen ate in 1S95. when judge Pritchard ! won the prize. With their experien i ce in that memorable contest it is likely that Mr. Moreheadi and Mr But j ler will not be able to stack the cards so easily against these two doughty champions. iney are not playing the game for their health. And again there is that grim old veteran, Dr. J. J. Mott, the brain iest and the games knight in the ring, who will demand recognition or break up the gane. The Honorable Charles Alphonso Reynolds would accept the govenor ship of the state provided the post ctfice department, could be induced to release him for four years. And Col. David Hamilton Blair will take the best he can get in any department of the state or national' government, provided, always, there is lucrs filthy or otherwise, in the job. David is always on deck if th. transportation is arranged and there are no extra charges. But perhaps we are too previous. There is much, history yet to be writ ten. We shall not venture too far in t the field of speculation. Unwitt ingly we have been led into the realm of cogitation by the telegraph ic reports, which flash hour after hour from the headquarters at aMorehead City, assuring us .that all is over gave and except the motion to make it unanimous, and roar of thunder from lusty lungs. Ai great game this game of Butler, Morehead, Holton, Settle, ReynoMs, el al, from the cushioned chairs iin their richly carpeted dens of luxury and ease, against the lank, lean and horny handed sons of toil and trials, and taxation and tribulation."

Has it oecured to the disgruntled Democrat that the closing of so ma ny factories and cotton mills in Nortt Carolina was the result of Taft pros perity? One of the leading Reimblicans cf eastern Carolina was asked on the train a lew days ago how it was that Marion Butler captured! the State Republican convention at Greensboro. His reply was, "By old Booze and plenty of Boodle." Rather tough on the old line Rads. Butler, Bcoze and Eocdle again assuming control of the Radical for ces In the State bringsus back to the days when Messrs. Cozart, Coi ey Gill along with Bill Royeter were running icuh shod ever the white . people of GranvilleC ounty. They did their bt-st to humiliate our people by putting over them eighteen ne gro school committeemen and seven teen r:?gro magistrates, and at one term of ccurt nine negroes were on, the grand jury and seven nogrces on a petit jury to try a white man. White men: Good c:tizens: Can you ior ge.t that? Of course, they say that the negro question is settled and that it you will once again intrust them with power they will not put negroes in office. Maybe not, but if the leaders of a party will so far for get their obligations to their own race as to commit the infamies they did while rial power only a few short years ago, will they not do, if not the salme things, ethers equally as bad? Can you forget? Will you trusty again? Wake up ye Democrats of Granville County, and don your fighting cloth es, as "Mary Ann" Butler is again, in the saddle in the Republican par ty in this State. Once again le-t us defeat this traitcr to his Statiei aad people. Stop and think it over Mr. Sore head Democrat, and ask yourself, if you can afford to join hands with, renegade Butler in his attempt to again bring disgrace upon the Old. North State? Let every Democrat in Granville County go right to work to increase the Democratic majority in the Coun ty to 1500. We can do it if every singlie Democrat will get down to work and stay at it until sundown on. the 8th day of next N ovf ember. Qh No: Mr. Morehead dosen't want, to run for Congress again,. He knows that his election of two years ago was an accident an accident whidh. the united Esmiccracy of this Di.s trict will never permit again. Justbecause everything done by the Democrats in the .admins tratiom of county affairs does not meet with! your approval we ask in all serious ness, is that any reason why you should join hands with Butler in his effort to get possession of the af fairs of North Carolina again!? What he did ence he will do again. Remem ber that Mr. Voter. e Resolutinos of Respect. Whereas the hand cf death hzs again, forced itself into our community and removed from us Brother J. F.
