Answered Little Giant Ira seems to have been in the mood to try to usk eome questions last week which we take pleasure in answering and if he has any moie -of the same kind let them come He asks if Bob McCall, Jim, Furgerson or Jim Gudger ever told The Record that they ever agreed to let one detendant off easy to get other cases. We will say that we heard R. S. McCall state in the presence of seyoral attorneys that he often did that and further stated that be thought it was the best way to break up crime. He asks that if The Reccrd did not state that be "Little Ira" did not belong to the ''Ring." We have no knowledge of such a state ment ever being made to any one Of course Little Giant Ira. in his Imagination det not belong to the Ring but he thinks the Kinp be longs to him. lie .asked us something about the school money in Hot Springs district.. All we have to say about that in that we printed all the rec ords that we could get in reference to the matter and that was all the information we had. If Little Giane Ira knows anything else that tbe public ought to know and , does not know, be u a officer, and let him tell it. public He also asked the following question. "Did ever a member of Ihe Reooid appro, b any of the county commisnoners and ask tnem to pay a cerain part for pub lishing in The Record the acts ol that bjardr , Section 752 of the first volume ot the Code reads as follows. The board shall cauaa to. be posted at fh court house, within five days after each December meet ing aud for at 1-ast four successive week, the name of every individ ual a hose acoount has been audi ted, the amount claimed and the amount allowed; and also at the asms tme a full statement of county reveuue and charges, show ing by items the income from every source and the disbursement on every account for tbs past year, together with. the perminent debt ol tbe county, it any, wnen con- ricied, and .the interest paid, or remaitiing unpaid thereon. fThe board shall also publish the said statement in some newspaper in the county, . provided, the cost of such publication shall not exceed one halt of a cent a word.") We plead guilty to the fact that we went to the board ot commis eioners and offered to print the statement as provided for in the foregoing section of the law at one half what the law allowed. And we must conless ihint tbe board of commissioners refused t" allow us that amount, and further they never required the statement to be made in compliance with that sec tion to we could give t6 (he people free that which we'1 would have done if they had made 'it possible for vis to nave dona, so. cut they preferred to refuse to" obey the plain mandates of the' law after it had been called to their attention, notwithstanding the fact that they iad solemnly sworn that they would execute the' duties of their office to the best of their skill nud ability and according to law. Now, Little Giant will you please tell how you get around that oath when you refused to accent ihe proposition of the, Record ? Please don't fail to answer this question. He also asks if the editor of the Record did Dut-state in the year ISy? in his race for representative, tuat he wiiR not a democrat. Any insinuation of' the kiiid ii abso lutely false. He stated On every stump in the county that he was a democrat and always had been. He albO wants to know ifGud gei vas running in this district if The Record would support him. We ;vill say yes we would support him, unless it appeared that he belonged to the Cquxt House Ring and it' be did we would not sup port hi in as we would not support any man belonging to that crowd ifweknewit, no matter to what political party they might belong. Now, Little'Giant, as you re so fond of asking questions will you please just answer ono ? It wont tike you long. Will you please tell us why it is that the board of commissioners require men who only have a poll, to pay th1-ir taxes and at the. same time not requirr tbe eherLio pay the 2 percent for Boldirig mopey that t tbe law pays he shall pay? That Is the only one that we will require you lo answer ibis tiro. v" And as to whether Little Giant wrote that other article, we will soy that it any oae wno knows any thing in the world about the Eng lish language will read both artic lea and say that the same man wrote them both, we will either give it up that they are lying or don t know what they are talk ing about. Cowardly Assault. That was a very cowardly bluff that Blackburn put up in sur rounding himself with Pritchard, Cowles and a few of their pie- rooters to assault Editor Merritt of The Citizen at the Battery Park Hotel in Asheville recently. Just why this gang wanted to take out their spite on Mr . Merritt after the same article had gone the rounds of the press we don't know. A thorn in the flesh, though, we pre sume. Such cowardice and bully ing as this is very unbecoming in United States senators and con gressmen and it's very gratifying to know that we will soon dispense with both of them. Tbe "trade and professional edi tor" of the Eagle wants to know where the Court House Ring is at and who composes it. The citi zens and tax payers'' of the county are pretty well posted as to the location and personel .of the Ring, and so far as the editor of the Eagle is concerned we don't deem it necessary to try- to convince him, gather's "none so blind as those that wont see" and this man is not a citizen nor a tax payer of this conntv'and his local residence here will be transferred aboutNovemberJ?0 iKni bthe j0"1 .v w " n tir h ioPJtion f the public editor of the Eagle is real anxious about this matter he might locate it in the neighborhood of where he draws his pay for his "trade and -profession.'. Are he might just keep his ears open and when he hears a fellow "kussia' The Rec ord put hin down as a member or a stickler for the Ring. '. Will "some friend of "Little Giant" Ira please, go around and losen up his safety valve, else there will be an explosion about equal to "a five cent cocoanut. Prltctiard's Plan The policy of the Republican party in Norih Carolina just now is "anything to win". To do that the last office is to be traded off if necessary, and the or ganization of the party turned over to the ''independents''. That the fight Pritchard is ma king is notons for principle or con victions, the method he has adopkd proves conclusively. Six years ago he traded off bis par ty to Butler and the Populist in or dur to get into ihe Senate; this year he is trying to work the same game on his followers with a hand "full of independents" in order to gain re election. Will he succeed? Even his most ardent followers are compejle'l to admit that it it ts not possible. And yet there are iome couuties that will go Republican, and here and there offices will be lost to the Democracy. .Will Republicans get them? Not a bitofit! They will be filled by "Independents" Senator Pritchard has but one thought: Trade off anything every thing, for votes in the Legislature. What matters it to him what be comes ot Ins lollows so begets back to the Senate? , Ot course he wi.l find in the end that such a scheme will not work; tuat he will lose by it about as miiny Republican votes as he will gain "Independents People respect courage in politics they do in oUier thinus, and they have no usefor the petty tricksters who pose 118 leadeis nnd as champi ons of great principals, while adop ting pothouse methods and trading off their followers to acomplish their own Bullish purpose. Ashe villa Citizen. Who Is Sespocsiblt? The following Letter from Mr. Gudger appeared in the Eagle of last week; Editor Eagle. I have just read Mr. Hendricks' article in your paper in reference to the tax levey in Madison county, in which he says he saw a "bill in my hand writing in refrence to this special tax levey. This statement is an 1111 agniation of Mr. Hendricks own uiind, and made lor tbe purpose of shielding hi own friends from the responsibility of this high tax measure. I would like for Mr. Hen dricks to state who had the bill he refers to and if ho can give the name of any other persons who saw it? The true fact are that Mr. Hendricks himself drew a bill bonding the in debtedness of Madison county at $55,000 due and payable in twenty years, and provided for a tax levy of 60 cent on each poll and 60 cents on each three hundred dollars of property This bill was handed to me by 1 ft H-bbs on Ffrbuary lZtb, 1902, so it will be readily seen that if we had passed Mr Hen .'ricks' bill he would have nad the same tax (Excepting; the bridge tax) that we have now, which high tax would have been fastened on the county for twenty years and yet Mr Hen dricks has the tame; ity to say that he offered a better measure The preset' t high tax bill was pre pared by the advisers of the board of county commissioners and type written, and forwarded to Mr Ebbs and myself by Van Davis the clerk of the board, with the exception that Mr. Ebbs and I made some reductions: otherwise the tax would have been higher shah it now is This bill being prepared by the boaru of county commissioners and passed at their special written re quest, auy reasonable thinking man would say that .the republican par ty was responsible for this measure. and an effort, to place the respon sibility on roe or the democratic party is unmanly, and intentionally and purposly made to deceive tbe honest minds of the people ot Mad ison county I herewith tile with P A McElroy the orignal bill pre pared, by Mr Henuncks, and sJ- boml ior tbe Very truly J. M. Gudger, Jr. A BOY'S WILD RIDh. FOR LIFE With family around expecting him to die, and a son riding tor life, 18 miles to get Dr. Kings Sew Dis cover for Consumpdou.Conghs and Colds, W. H. Brown of Leesville, InL, endured death's agonies from asthama, bat this wonderful medi cine gave instant relief and soon cured him. He writes: "I now sleep soundly every night Like marvelous cures of Consumption, Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds and Grip prove its matchless merit for all Throat -and - Lung troubles Guaranteed bottles 50c and $1.00. Trial bottles Ires at Rtdrnou t Robert drug store.. We would like to ask our friend Ira if he did not take an oath to administer his office according to iavv? And if he didn't levy a tax that he knowed was unlawful when he levied it? (Mr. English admits that he knew it was unlaw ful when it wos levied). This being the case what did you do with your oath ? Wont Hiss hiss when he gets caught in Webb s web. John D. Barrier has sold the Concord Standard to J. B. Sherrill of the Times. Mr. Sherrill in turn sells the Daily Standard to the j Daily Tribune. Mr. Sherrill will I continue the weekly. Mr. Barrier ! made the Standard a first class paper and we don't understand why he should wish to retire unless it is to now enjoy the fortune (?) that he has made in the news paper business. Peace, to you brother. Mr. J. M. Lyon, recently of the Greenville, Teim., Democrat, has bought an interest in the Burns ville Eagle and will enlarge it to a seven column paper. Here's hop ing that you may grow larger aud richer each year and build a good democratic majority for good old Yancy. The "trade and professional" editor of the Eagle says that he is a "total abstainer" aud that we know it. So far as our personal knowledge goes we don't know, but all the information that we have is to the effect that not so very long ago this same editor of the Eagle was having a consider able tussle with "John Barley Corn.' .So we don't presume that he has "abstained" so very long. Mr I And Jumbo went and furnished bis garret again for the caucus ind lie also took right smart interest in the convention, too. So just quiet yourself. Mr. Engle, and see if Jumbo don't do a little missionary work along the line. We understand that Doc only liked two hundred and filty dol lars making a balance iu his annual report and tried to make the finance coinmittea believe that he was ertitlled to credit for thin amount, but they properly re- fus- d to allow it without proper vouchers and Doc fai'ed to pro duce them.
