Below* Ave "give ? short synopsis'. | and - if you did not hear the speech j ' ft will repay you to read: f Outline Of Speech. - r. The vital principie^bl the Demo ' -cratic Party is to fight out our bat tles within the party, that is In the ... rrimary" or convention: and when the will of the majority is expressed to J.h the campaign and the elec tron. To scratch your ticket or witn hdld your slippptt of any portion "of the . ticket is a violation of this, prin t. hie. and invjtgs party demoraliza-. t ion. . My advice . to first voters and r.Il voters is to support ! the pemo c ratic' ticket from constable to presi clerit. ? 2. We must {ireserve the Demofcratr party as the great histrirical- insti - ution of the popular will and . the '" nronle's -rights. It is not a thine of a clay. We received it from the fath :ers". we ou*ht" to preserve it for our f fiVes and our children, we of the South ought to be . eeiallv ?'?In preserve the 3vmocratic party .It is the faithful kHarcii&h of the Southern civilization The Republican party is' a sectional ? arty, it was brought forth in sec tionalism.

Mr. Oftkley Returns Mr. CurMh Oakley. who has been leave it out. We trust this will not occur again soon. Duping Anti-Smiths Senator Simmons has been advising "disgruntled Democrats to vote against the ^Democratic nohrrinee. for Presi dent. Yet he says he is not going to* vote for Hoover. Wonder if the so called anti-Smith Democrats have given that particular phase of the political problem the attention it de serves? Simmons advises them to vote against Smith. He is encouraging in every way possible the movement to defeat the Democratic candidate. But he is not willing to. go that far in his own voting. Why? The answer came in the Senator's Raleigh speech. He announced that he expected to be a candidate to suc ceed himself in the 1930 election. It is the same old Simmons, always looking out for Simmons" personal in terests. He knows full well that to vote, the Republican ticket this year would raise the question of his Demo-. cracv. . arid would further endanger his. chances of re -ejection. So. he tells the anti-Smithites to defeat SVnith. even advising them .to' vote for Hoover, while" lie will try to preserve h little of party lovaity by merely not voting^ in tile presidential ballot box. That is as open a piece of attempt ine to pet somebody. else to pull phest piit.s out of the/fire as has been de monstrated in North Carolina poli tics in many a day-. . The anti-Smithites are being doubly duped. and . they are so blinded by their passions that they cannot see' it. ThoV will wake up to it some of these dnv?, and "will regret- it. But jt' may be too late. Thev .are being used by Simmpns to further his own selfish . ntyrpsts. They are being used by the Republicans to promote the cause Bv the "way .if Simmbns runs , in 1930. wonder With what party he will claim -affiliation? Will he have the n^rve to ask -.Democrats ) to,, support him after, he .'has deserted tfrem in ibfir hour of battle? Will lie ask thy Republicans to elect him? That par tV is now handing hinrl the most praise, and the natural conclusion would be that he would seek honors at the hands of his frionds. Or will he run as an anti-Smith candidate, mak ing ,a three cornered fight between himself, a Democrat and a Republi can? If the anti-Smith Democrats will but pause a few moments . in their course and consider the fact that they ai;e being used as tools for the per sonal benefit of Simmons and for the "dvnncf nvnt of the cause of Repub licanism in North Carolina, they will, m doubt ;*$ee the erroT Of their way. refuse to be the dupes of those designing forces.
