SENATOR .SIMMONS POLITICALLY COXSIDEKED Fair and just criticism of Sena tor Simmons, public position on reciprocity at Washington, and his state position in the last poli tical campaign, o the question of lumber being on the free list, can only be had, by ignoring the matter of North Carolina politics n the state senatorial issue, as it ni;iv concern Senator Simmons, as candidate, Separate the actural Sriiator with his political record iitmi the possible Senatorial can didate of I ;1 'J, and there need be l.slt her confusion nor mix up, and 1 !u- senior Senator of North Caro- iiaa will only need the intelligent consideration of his home people, j lor them to thoughtfully follow his speeches defining his public vole on all questions, to find that his democratic toga is in no way a iiolitieal mislit. Senator Simmons is opposed to 1 lie reciprocity bill, because of its unfairness to certain farming in 1 1 -rests which will place their products on the free list, and place tliem under a tariff burden, as consumers. Just why the Senator should lie hounded to vot for this .Republican measure, regardless of all consideration, can only be an swered by those pursuing such a course. To post Senator Simmons as being the sole campaigner for "free lumber" in the last state campaign provokes a laugh down tin's way. On the stump and in private the following declaration Hsued by the Democratic state executive committee, was impress el on every interested lumber duller and the entire lumber in terests, regardless of party. "Thoy (lumbermen) may rest assur ed that the Democrats would not put lumber on the free list, it being Southern product, unless there should l.i- coupled with it the placing upon the free liat of all articles entering into competition with trust-controlled ar ticles as their platform demands, and which would tend to largely cheapen the expenses of the manufacturer of lumber." It was a promise sacredly made that involved not any one senator or Congressman, any particular fpeakcr,but every one concerned in furthering democratic interests in this Eastern North Carolina. There was political reason in this, and also the practical business reason, iu the refusal to place North Carolina lumber on the free list, at the same time making every thing entering into the manufac ture of lumber have a tariff pro tection to the loss of the lumber instcrrtts of this state. If.Senator Simmons stands guil ty of politically repudiating the platform adopted at Denver, then ' he has a large following, for the Journal with other democratic : newspapers, and a host of speak ers, not to mention the thousands of plaiu every day democratic voters, must also plead guilty in faithfully. following the decree is sued by the State - Democratic Executive Committee. .' - SI2LF MAD 13 PLAGUES, i Individuals suffer from plagues ' and communities are plagued, and there are exclamations of astonish ment over the afflictions, as being from the Evil One.

Ignorance of natural laws, indifference to divine laws, point the way to the source ot liuiivnm al and community plagues. The personal refusal to live rightly marks the beginning to wide spread trouble. That no one lives for him self or herself alone, is seen every day. The carelsssness of one means fire that destroys both the careless one and surrounding property. Kelusal to observe sanitary taws is a crime and outrage that well gov erned communities punish. " ith the close daily, even hourly coin munication between towns and cities, the plague of one can la made the plague of many, there fore the necessitv to enforce the " law upon the individual of right' and cleanly livitg, that through failure of such living there be opened no way to wide spread d is-1 aster.
