" ; Isn't it a little singular that wh.le Senator Simmons is doing so much mag nificent work for his parly and his State the men who covet his seat in the Sen ate are beating the bushes atd bar ranguing the people, attacking Sim' mons' democracy T Do they think the people of North Carolina are ignorant or ungrateful? If so a day of rude awakening is coming. Why do these candidates not put their records alorgside that of Senator Simmons' and let the people make a rcompariton ? One of them at least, has been in'Congress for a long term 6f ytars. .;. :; '' , There is another fact in this connec tion that the people of N. Carolina will not fail to note. While his record is being assailed bythe men who want his place, he has not deserted bis post of duty but is leading the Democratic fight in the Senate with marked abili ty, no doubt believing- that the : people of his tate will show their apprecia tion oi bis work by repudiating his as sailants and by re-electing him to the Senate by an overwhelming majority.
