“A SQUAHRDEAL.”
Wihwn Times
Mr, Editor; In view of the fad that
the Tarboro Southerner has reflecttrd
on the honor and integrity of the Dem
ocratic party hy prophesyin^c that Mr.
Cx)ley would Ik* “«*uchere(i" out of the
vote Recured for him in the township
primaries of Wilson coun»y, it appears
only just that this sort of reflection
should be answered. The best answer
that can be made to a slander is the
truth.

Ing the fact that there were in the con-1
vention a number of delegates who were
his partisans, he personally requested
the convention to take action with re
gard to the township, claiming that he
had friends at that township meeting
(but not in the meeting) who desired to
vote fon him. The, fact was shown that
in another township no delegates had
been-clected, but that the chairman of
the township committee had appointed
himself a delegate, instructed himself
for Mr. Cooley and sent his written re
turns to that effect to the county con
vention by a Republican.
When these facts appeared, I moved
to appoi lit a committee on credentials

Sfore Mr. Cooley left Wilson, he
^ed that he had been treated with
ct fairness and that he was satis-
{flire to say that the effort of the
lorner to nominate Mr. Cooley by
Rting on the good name of the peo-
Be of Wilson county is the sort of poH-
tics that good men do not endorse. I

It fa the hope of Mr. Daniels’ friends
that the editor Of tlie. Southerner will
exert his influence fo see that Mr. Dan
iels is treated in the'good county of
Edgecombe with the same fairness that
his candidate, Mr. Cooley, received in
Wilson. The good people of Mgecombe,
I feel surs, will do so, though the spirit
manifested by the editor of the South
erner leads me to doubt very much
whether he will lend his influence to a
“square deal.”
