The  policy  of  the  Atlantic  Coast  Line  is  to  foster  all  develop- 
ments along  its  line.  IT  IS  THE  GREATEST  TRUCKING  ROAD 
IN  AMERICA,  and  it  provides  every  facility  for  getting  farm, 
garden,  and  orchard  products  to  the  Northern  Markets  in  best 
possible  condition,   in  shortest  time,  and  at  lowest  rates. 

In  no  part  of  the  country  is  there  a  greater  abundance  of  game 
and  fish  than  in  the  eastern  counties  of  North  and  South  Caro- 
lina 

Southern  and  Western  farmers  are  invited  to  write  for  informa- 
tion in  detail  about  the  territory  of  the  Atlantic  Coast  Line  which

JXJDICIAIiJLY   DETERMINED. 

In  Guilford  Superior  Court,  December  19th,  1903,  in  an  impor- 
tant ease,  it  was  established  and  admitted  by  both  plaintiff  and  de- 
fendant, that  the  circulation  of  The  News  and  Observer  both  In 
1901  and  1903  was  and  is  larger  than  that  of  any  other  news- 
paper published  in  North  Carolina,  and  that  its  influence  was  also 
greater  than  that  of  any  other  newspaper. 


THE  NORTH  CAROLINA  YEAR  BOOK.  23 


HEALTH  SEEKERS! 
HOME  SEEKERS!!! 


Men  With  Capital 
Looking  for  investment!  ! 


There  is  no  section  of  the 
South  that  offers  so  many  advantages 
to   these   three  classes   as  the   section 

traversed  by  the 

Aberdeen  &   Rock  fish 

RAILROAD. 

It  penetrates  rich  lands  specially 
adapted  to  the  growth  of  truck,  fruit, 
cotton,  and  other  profitable  crops. 
This  is  a  new  section  recently  opened 
up  by  railroad  facilities  and  fertile 
land  can  be  bought  here  at  less  price 
than  similar  land  can  be  bought  in 
sections  long  having  transportation  fa- 
cilities. It  is  populated  by  excellent 
citizens  and  new  comers  find  the  best 
church  and  school  advantages. 

It  runs  through  the  famous  Long 
Leaf  Pine  Region,  of  Moore,  Robeson 
and  Cumberland,  the  healthiest  sec- 
tion in  America,  and  is  only  within  a 
few  miles  of  Pinehurst  and  Southern 
Pines,  noted  health  resorts.  The  cli- 
mate along  tha  Aberdeen  and  Rock- 
fish  is  as  health-giving  as  at  those 
famous  winter  health  resorts.  It  con- 
nects at  Hope  Mills  with  the  Atlantic 
Coast  Line  and  at  Aberdeen  with  the 
Seaboard  Air  Line  and  the  Aberdeen 
and  Asheboro  railroads,  thus  guaran- 
teeing best  railroad  facilities  in  all 
directions. 

Full  information  given  to  ALL 
HEALTH  SEEKERS,  HOME  SEEK- 
ERS, AND  INVESTMENT  SEEKERS, 
as  to  water  power,  farm  lands,  manu- 
facturing sites,  health  resort  sites 
furnished  upon  application  to  the  offi- 
cers.

Steps  in  English 

Book  One  40  cents 

Book  Two  60  cents 

These  books  present  a  new  method  of 
teaching  language  and  grammar  which 
is  in  marked  contrast  to  the  anti- 
quated system  in  vogue  a  generation 
ago.  They  meet  modern  conditions  in 
every  respect  and  teach  the  child  how 
to  express  his  thought  in  language 
rather  than  furnish  an  undue  amount 
of  grammar  and  rules.  From  the  start 
lessons  in  writing  language  are  em- 
ployed simultaneously  with  those  in 
conversation.      :::::::

Democratic  State  Platform —  1 904. 


Adopted  at  Greensboro,  June  24 
1904. 

The  Democratic  party  of  North  Carolina, 
in  convention  assembled,  declaring  anew  its ' 
allegiance  to  the  fundamental  principles  of 
government  as  expressed  in  former  platforms, 
congratulates  the  people  of  the  State  that  a 
Democratic  administration  has  again  estab- 
lished throughout  their  borders  the  reign 
of  law  and  liberty  and  the  reign  of  peace 
and  progress.  Radical  rule,  with  its  night- 
mare of  horrors,  has  passed  away.  Our  peo- 
ple are  no  longer  employed  in  guarding 
their  homes  and  protecting  their  liv?s,  lib- 
erty and  property  as  they  were  under  Re- 
publican rule;  but,  safe  in  the  protection 
of  law,  breathing  the  air  of  liberty,  and 
er.joying  the  freedom  which  conies  from 
security,  our  men  and  our  women  are  de- 
vcting  their  energies  to  the  peaceful  pur- 
suits of  honest  industry,  to  the  education 
of  their  children  and  to  the  care  of  the 
helpless  and  unfortunate.  Agriculture,  man- 
ufacturing and  commerce  are  bounding  for- 
ward in  helpful  rivalry,  neither  receiving 
nor  desiring  subsidies  or  protection  e>  cept 
that  afforded  by  a  stable  and  honest  gov- 
ernment. Nowhere  in  North  CaroMna  is 
there  riot  or  disorder;  nowhere  is  there 
suffering  or  destitution.  Such  are  the  fruits 
of  peace  and  order  of  honesty  and  efficiency. 
of  intelligence  and  patriotism,  of  Demo- 
cratic   adir-inistration    under    the    leadership 


of  the  peerless  orator,  statesmen  and  edu- 
cator, Charles  Brantley  Aycock,  and  the 
cfher  honest  and  efficient  public  officials 
associated  with  him  in  the  State  adminis- 
tration in  all  three  departments  of  govern- 
ment. 

North  Carolina  has  again  come  into  her 
own.  She  stands  in  the  forefront  of  South- 
ern States,  leading  all  in  educational  and 
industrial  progress.  Her  sons  are  looked  to 
at  home  and  abroad  for  educational,  incus- 
trial  and  commercial  leadership.  What  a 
contrast  to  conditions  existing  lecently 
when  the  degradation  of  our  educational, 
charitable  and  penal  institutions,  through 
the  vices,  incompetency,  extravagance  and 
corruption  of  Republican  boards  of  man- 
agement caused  the  State  to  hang  her  head 
in  shame  and  stand  an  object  of  pity  among 
her  sister  States. 

The  Democratic  party  points  with  pride 
to  its  settlement  of  the  race  problem  in 
North  Carolina — a  settlement  that  depends 
upon  Democratic  supremacy  for  its  perma- 
nence. The  Constitutional  Amendment  fur- 
nishes to  all  the  people  of  the  State  safe- 
guards of  peace  and  order,  of  life,  liberty 
and  happiness,  and  guarantees  educational, 
religious  and  social  progress  as  well  as  in- 
dustrial   prosperity    and    development. 

We  re-affirm  our  constitutional  declara 
tions  that  "religion,  moralit.v  a:id  knowl-

mpans  of  education  shall  forever  be  en- 
couraged," and  "that  +he  people  have  a 
right  to  the  privilege  of  education,  and 
that  it  is  the  duty  of  the  State  to  guard 
and  maintain  that  right,"  and  we  express 
our  hearty  approval  of  the  educational 
work  of  the  present  administration,  and  our 
giatification,     at    the      great      improvem.;.it 

made  in  our  educational  condit'ons  under 
the  present  Democratic  adminirtra..on,  and 
would  call  attention  to  the  fulfillment  of 
the  former  premise  of  the  party  to  provile 
at  least  .i  four  months'  school  term  for 
all  the  children  of  the  State.  And  we 
further  express  cur  cordial  commendation 
r.f  the  work  of  the  teaching  profession  fo: 
the  mental,  moral  and  material  advance- 
r  ent  of  the  people,  and  pledge  for  the  fu- 
ture our  best  endeavors  to  strengthen  and 
increase  the  usefulness  and  efficiency  of 
our   whole   public   educational   system. 

We  approve  the  general  principles  of  the 
Watts  law  regulating  the  manufacture  and 
sale  of  liquors,  and  limiting  the  same  to  lo- 
calities in  which  there  may  be  adequate 
police  protection.  The  principle  that  no 
saloon  or  still  shall  operate  except  under  po- 
lite protection  is  as  sound  as  that  whiskey 
shall  not  be  sold  to  minors,  to  drunkards, 
or  on  Sundays,  or  near  the  schools  and 
churches.  The  General  Assembly  has  the 
power,  and  when  controlled  by  the  D'cmo- 
c  in  tic  party  can  be  trusted  to  make  nil 
amendments  that  experiencce  and  conditions 
nay  demonstrate  to  be  wise  and  proper. 

The  contrast  between  the  present  and  the 
preceding  administration  of  the  .State  Prison 


S] icaks  trompet-tongued  of  Democratic  elfi- 
ciency  and  Republican  rascality  and  imbecil- 
ity. In  all  the  history  of  the  State  the  low- 
est level  of  immorality,  venality,  and  in- 
humanity was  reached  in  the  vnanag  meat 
o'l  the  State  convicts  under  the  adminis- 
tration of  Daniel  L.  Bussell.  Today  the  in- 
stitution is  free  from  debt  and  has  on  hand 
a  surplus  large  enough  to  pay  the  bonds 
necessitated  by  Republican  peculation  i\nd 
inefficiency.  We  pledge  the  party  to  con- 
tinued business-like  and  humane  manage- 
ment  of  this  institution. 

We  call  attention  to  the  success  that  has 
attended  the  establishment  of  the  insurance 
department  which  has  increased  our  annual 
receipts  by  $90,000,  and  furthermore,  in  ad- 
dition to  this  increase,  that  fees  now  re- 
ceived by  the  State  in  this  department 
which  formerly  were  allowed  to  the  official 
collecting  them,  are  more  than  enough  to 
cover  all  increases  and  additions  in  sala- 
ries   of    executive   and   judicial   officers. 

We  pledge  the  party  to  a  fair  .and  just 
system  of  taxation  in  which  all  subjects  of 
taxation  shall  bear  their  just  and  equal 
proportions  of  the  burdens  of  government. 

After  long  and  careful  deliberation  an! 
conference  with  many  of  its  creditors,  the 
Stale  of  North  Carolina  adjusted  it?  debt 
upon  a  basis  so  fair  and  honorable  as  to 
win  the  approval  of  the  financial  world  and 
to  secure  ratification  by  nearly  every  credi- 
tor cf  the  State.  During  the  present  year 
attempts  have  been  made  to  re-open  the 
question  settled  at  that  time  bv  the  State's 
wisest  and  best  man.     The  Democratic  paity

to  MRS.  LUCY  H.  ROBERTSON,  President,  Greensboro,  N.  C. 


of  1904  approves  the  settlement  made  in 
1879  and  will  forever  oppose  any  and  all 
attempts  trom  any  quarter  to  set  aside  the 
settlement  then  made.  It  will  abide  the 
mandates  of  the  courts  but  it  will  not  con- 
sent to  re- open  the  settl  iment  i"hat  was 
alike  creditable  to  the  State  and  fair  to 
the   holders   of   it?   securities. 

The  Democratic  party  established  the  sys- 
tem of  pensioning  Confederate  toldiers  and 
opened  the  Soldiers'  Home  to  the  care  of 
the  veterans  who  responded  to  the  call  of 
the  State  in  the  War  Between  the  States. 
Every  dollar  given  them  was  appropriated 
or  forced  by  the  Democratic  Legislature  or 
Democratic  public  sentiment.  We  pledge 
the  party  to  a  fuller  discharge  of  a  debt 
that  can  never  be  fully  paid  to  these  aging 
heroes  who  offered  their  lives  as  a  sacrifice 
upon    the    altars    of    their    country. 

We  point  with  pride  to  (be  record  cf  the 
Democratic  party  in  its  care  of  the  unfor- 
tunate classes  of  our  State  and  promise  to 
continue  to  enlarge  our  charitable  institu- 
tions until  all  the  indigent  insane  are  cared 
for  at  the  expense  of  the   State. 

Corporations  being  creatures  of  the  law 
should  be  under  control  of  the  sovereign 
and  amenable  to  the  law.  But  being  useful 
and  necessary  incidents  of  business,  all 
their  rights  should  be  guarded  and  pro- 
tected by  the  law.  Like  other  citizens  they 
shculd  be  protected  from  wrong  and  oppres- 
sion. Especially  should  tht-y  be  protected 
from  suits  in  form  to  procure  receiverships 
cesigned  to  wreck  the  properties  and  i".vans- 
fer  them  from  tlreir  rightful  owners  to  the 
possession  and  control  of  financial  adven- 
turers. 

We  call  upon  Cor.press  to  enact  laws  clisr- 
ly  defining  liie  powers  of  Federal  judges  in 
the  appointment  of  receivers  and  to  protect 
corporations  against  improper  and  illegal 
appointments. 

We  favor  the  establishment  of  the  Appa- 
lachian Forest  Reserve,  and  urge  our  Sena- 
tors and  Representatives  to  continue  their 
efforts  to  secure  the  establishment  of  the 
same. 

At  no  period  in  Ibe  history  of  the  repub- 
lic has  the  Democratic  party  been  so  nee  s- 
sary  to  the  welfare  of  the  people  and  the 
cause  of  free  government,  as  it  is  tcday.  A 
great  conservative  force,  it  stands  a  barrier 
between  the  recklessness  of  organized  greed 
and  the  desperation  of  oppressed  humanity. 
Its  mission  is  to  give  liberty  and  justice  to 


all,  monopoly  and  tyranny  to  none;  to  re- 
strict the  Federal  government  within  the 
constitutional  limits  of  its  authority,  to  re- 
sist its  every  aggression  beyond  the  scope 
of  its  delegated  power;  to  limit  its  power 
of  taxation  to  the  needs  of  tliL-  government 
economically  administered;  to  distribute 
impartially  the  Durdens  of  government;  to 
preserve  unimpaired  the  reserved  rights  of 
the  States  and  of  the  people;  to  maintain 
the  right  of  lo:al  self-government;  these  .ire 
and  have  always  been  among  the  funda- 
mental   principles  of   the  Democratic   part) 

It  is  especially  necessary  to  restrict  the 
executive  head  of  the  Federal  government 
within  the  constitutional  limits  of  his  au- 
thority, and  no  argument  of  temporary  ex- 
pedi  ncy  can  justify  the  assumption  by  him 
of  powers  conferred  exclusively  upon  the 
legislative  department  of  the  government  or 
the  violation  by  him  of  plain  provisions  of 
constitutional,  statute  and  treaty  law. 

For  the  last  eight  years  the  Republican 
party  has  been  in  complete  control  of  the 
Federal  government  in  all  its  branches.  Dur- 
ing that  time  trusts  and  monopolies  have 
multiplied.  They  have  increased  their  ex- 
tortions from  the  people.  They  dominate 
tie'  Republican  party  and  compel  it  to  ad- 
minister the  affairs  of  the  republic  in  Ineir 
selfish  interest.  We  condemn  the  President 
for  his  surrender  to  trust  influences  and  for 
his  failure  to  enforce  the  law  against  monop- 
olies and  monopolists.  Congress  appropriated 
$500,000.00  to  employ  special  counsel  to  en- 
force the  laws  against  trusts.  In  twelve 
months  he  expended  for  sueli  purpose  only 
one-twentieth  of  that  sum.  In  the  midst  o; 
crime  and  havoc  committed  by  these  wrong- 
doers, he  will  not  stop  (lie  violation  of 
statutes  enacted  for  the  protection  of  the 
people,  nor  punish  the  criminals  who  plun- 
der them,  although  his  attention  was  called 
to  the  manner  in  which  the  perpetrators 
might,  h.'  punished  by  recent  decisions  of  the 
Supreme    Court. 

We  denounce  the  present  iniquitous,  un- 
just and  trust-creating  protective  tariff  im- 
posed upon  the  people  o.\  the  Republican 
party  and  demand  its  immediate  revision, 
to  the  end  that  all  unjust  burdens  'hail  be 
removed,  and  especially  those  apon  the  nec- 
essaries of  life  and  those  that  enable  the 
trust  to  extort  from  the  people  unreason- 
able profits  and  to  sell  their  products  to 
consumers   at    home   at   greater   prices   than

We  review  with  alarm  the  growing  ten- 
dency of  the  government  under  Republican 
administration  toward  despotic  centraliza- 
tion at  home,  as  well  as  despotic  imperial- 
ism abroad.  vV<?  denounce  the  policy  of  the 
Republican  party  in  building  up  a  strong 
centralized  government  at  Washington  at  the 
expense  of  the  sacred  rights  of  the  sovereign 
States;  that  which  in  its  policy  and  con- 
duct has  reversed  the  clause  of  the  constitu- 
tion, reserving  to  the  States  all  rights  not 
specifically  conferred  upon  the  Federal  gov- 
ernment, and  has  ass-umed  for  the  central 
government  at  Washington  the  vast  residium 
of  power  solemnly  guaranteed  to  the  peo- 
ple by  the  constitution.     The  inevitable  con- 


sequence of  this  policy  and  practice  will  be 
the  destruction  of  popular  government  and 
the  establishment  of  a  military  empire.  Con- 
fidently relying  upon  these  fundamental 
principles  of  government  and  appealing  to 
the  record  of  our  party  in  the  past,  we  in- 
vite all  who  believe  in  popular  liberty,  pop- 
ular education,  popular  government  and 
white  supremacy,  in  freedom,  both  at  home 
and  abroad,  in  honesty,  efficiency,  simplicity 
and  economy  of  administration,  in  the  re- 
moval of  monopolies  and  oupwrssion,  under 
whatever  guise  and  by  whomsoever  prac- 
ticed,   to   unite   with   us   in   maintaining   in 

North  Carolina  Democratic  rule  and  in  de- 
stroying Republican  misrule  in  the  United 
States. 


Republican  State  Platform—  1 904. 


1.  The  Republican  Party  of  North  Caro- 
lina, in  convention  assembled,  at  Greens- 
boro, North  Carolina,  on  this  the  18th  day 
of  May,  1904,  hereby  endorses  and  ratifies 
the  principles  and  policies  enumerated  in 
the  platforms  of  the  National  Republican 
Party,  adopted  in  1896  and  1900.  In  spite 
of  Democratic  opposition  the  policies  and 
principles  of  our  party  have  been  written 
into  law,  and  we  point  with  pride  to  its 
achievements.  It  has  blessed  our  country 
with  unparalleled  prosperity.  It  has  car- 
ried happiness  to  every  home.  It  has  ex- 
panded our  commerce.  It  has  broadened  our 
territory..  It  has  made  supreme  our  influ- 
ence at  home  and  abioad.     It  has  raised  our 


credit,  until  today  it  is  the  highest  in  the 
world.  It  has  ever  stood  for  universal  free- 
dom, and  has  carried  the  blessings  of  liberty 
into  the  islands  of  the  sea.  It  has  held  our 
honor  unsullied,  and  our  flag  untarnished, 
until  we  have  taken  cur  place  as  the  arbiter 
of  the  nations  of  the  world.  Throughout  its 
long  lease  of  power,  its  Presidents  and  lead- 
ers have  always  leen  equal  to  the  great- 
est demands;  and  row  the  country,  with  all 
its  vast  and  varied  interests,  has  a  Republi- 
can President  in  the  person  of  Theodore 
Roosevelt  who  has  shown  himself  no  less 
equal  to  every  emergency,  who  has  devel- 
oped a  statesmanship  that  entitles  him  to

reasons  we  hereby  endorse  his  administration 
and  pledge  our  earnest  support  for  his  nom- 
ination and  election. 

2.  We  endorse  the  Republican  adminis- 
tration in  protecting  the  rights  of  the  peo- 
ple against  monopolies,  trusts  and  other  un- 
lawful combinations. 

3.  We  endorse  the  Rspubhcan  party  for 
its  action  in  constructing  the  Pan.ima  Canal, 
and  the  people  of  1he  United  States  from 
all  sectiors,  especially  from  the  South,  are 
to  be  congratulated  upon  the  prospects  of 
so  soon  securing  the  great  interoceanic 
waterway  which  will  give  new  impetus  to 
the  nation's  commerce,  and  prove  a  blessing 
to  the  country  at  krge,  and  especially  to 
the   South. 

4.  We  endorse  the  foreign  policy  of  ex- 
parsion  ;jf  the  ReDublican  party  by  which 
Porto  Rico,  Hawaii"  and  the  Philippines  have 
I  pen  annexed  to  the  United  States,  thus 
opening  up  a  ne\v  market  to  the  manufac- 
turers of  this  country. 

5.  We  endorse  the  Republican  party  for 
liberating  the  Cubans  from  Spanish  tyranny 
and  oppression,  and  point  with  pride  to 
their  success  and  progress  since  the  estat- 
lishment  of  the  Republican  form  of  govern- 
ment. 

C.  We  deplore  the  death  of  the  lat,^  Sena- 
tor Marcus  A.  Hanna,  and  recognize  in  his 
exalted  life  and  character  the  highest  type 
of  the  patriotic  citizen,  the  Christian  gen- 
tleman and  the  wise  statesman,  and  cherish 
his  life  history  as  one  of  the  most  oreeicus 
heritages  of  the  Republican  party. 

7.  We  most  heartily  endorse  the  able, 
fearless  and  aggressive  course  of  Hon.  Thos. 
S.  Rollins,  our  State  Chairman,  and  com- 
mend his  efforts  for  the  success  of  the  party 
in  the   State. 

8.  The  Republican  party  favors  the  Appa- 
lachian Park,  and  we  promise  to  use  all 
honorable  means  to  bring  about  legislation 
establishing  the  same. 

9.  We  favor  the  education  of  the  masses, 
but  denounce  the  practice  of  the  present 
Democratic  State  administration  in  its  ef- 
forts to  maka  the  common  schools  a  part 
of  the  Democratic  machine,  to  be  ran  for 
partisan  purposes,  until  their  usefulness  has 
been  greatly  impaired  and  those  most  in 
need  of  education  largely  deprived  of  its  ad- 
vantages. We  pledge  ourselves  to  the  cor- 
rection of  these  abuses,  and  to  so  amend  the 
law  as  to  remove  our  free  schools  as  far  as 
possible  from  the  realm  of  politics,  and 
thus  prevent  their  being  diverted  to  parti- 
san advantages,  an  1  to  give  to  the  system 
an  elasticity  that  will  inure  to  I  he  oest  in- 
terests  of    those   most   in   need   of   its   help. 

10.  The  Republican  party  favors  generous 
public  aid  to  all  charitable  institutions  in 
the  State,  and  the  enactment  of  pension 
laws  more  liberal  and  just  to  the  old  Con- 
federate soldiers. 

31.  We  denounce  the  policy  of  the  Demo- 
cratic party  in  its  effort  to  destroy  those 
they  cannot  use  for  partisan  ends,  which  has 
resulted  in  driving  both  labor  and  capital 
from  our  State,  rheieby  decreasing  the 
sources  of  taxation  at  the  very  time  their 
administration  has  bankrupted  our  treasury. 


12.  We  denounce  the  management  of  the 
Atlantic  and  North  Carolina  Railroad  and 
Hotel  by  the  Democratic  party  as  incompe- 
tent, corrupt  and  extravagant,  and  declare 
that  we  favor  the  leasing  of  that  property, 
and  promise  the  pec  pie  of  North  Carolina 
that  if  elected  to  power  we  will  forever  put 
an  end  to  such  scandals  as  have  :ecently 
been  brought  to  light  in  connection  with 
its  management.  We  denounce  the  Gover- 
nor's star  chamber  investigation  of  that 
road  and  declare  that  the  secret  and  clande- 
stine investigation  into  its  aflairs  was  an  out- 
rage and  a  disgrace,  and  one  which  the  citi- 
zens of  ths  State  should  not  tolerate. 

13.  We  denounce  the  hypoe.sy  of  the  Dem- 
ocratic party  in  its  effort  to  deceive  tha 
people  by  saying  they  had  not  raised  the 
rate  of  taxation,  while  they  have  forced  an 
increased  valuation  on  all  property  by  leg- 
islation, have  created  a  commission  tor  this 
express  purpose,  and  have  '.hereby  largely 
increased  the  burden  of  taxation  upon  our 
people.  As  an  evidence  of  this,  we  ask 
every  taxpayer  to  compare  his  receipt  for 
the  taxes  of  1903  with  those  of  former 
years. 

14.  We  denounce  that  policy  of  the  Dem- 
cratic  party  that  ce-nti'iuously  and  insid- 
lemsly  attacks  local  self-government  by  leg- 
islative appointment  of  Justices  of  the 
Peace,  County  Commissioners  and  other  offi- 
cers all  over  the  State,  and  elemand  that  all 
matters  pertaining  to  local  affairs  and 
county  government  be  left  entirely  with 
the  voters  of  the  communities  and  counties 
concerned. 

15.  We  denounce  frauds,  robberies,  intimi- 
dation in  elections,  and  we  appeal  to  the 
honest  citizens  of  North  Carolina  to  use 
their  best  efforts  in  seeing  that  the  coming 
election  is  free  from  corruption,  and  is  con- 
ducted honestly  in  all  respects. 

16.  We  denounce  that  spirit  of  anarchy  in 
the  Democratic  party  -"hat  prompted  our 
Governor  to  say  he  would  have  emptied  the 
State  Treasury' in  ete-fense  of  these  indicted 
for  -election  frauds  before  one  of  them 
shculd  be  convicted,  and  we  condemn  the 
Democratic  machine  for  defending  crimi- 
nals  at   the   expense  of   the   taxpayers. 

17.  We  condemn  the  Democratic  party 
machine  for  its  unwarranted  efforts  to  im- 
peach our  Supreme  Court  Judges  for  parti- 
san pui  poses. 

18.  We  favor,  "3  we  have  ever  favored, 
just  and  equal  laws  for  the  promotion  of 
temperance,  but  in  pursuance  of  our  time- 
honored  policy  of  Local  Self-Govemment  we 
favor  a  law  which  submits  to  the  qualified 
voters  of  the  several  counties  and  incorpora- 
ted towns  of  the  State,  at  their  request, 
the  question  of  whether  they  shall  or  ;0iall 
not  be  permitted  to  make  .-nd  sell  intoxi- 
cating liquors,  and  the  faithful  execution  of 
their  will   as  expressed  at  the  ballot   box. 

19.  We  denounce  the  present  State  admin 
istration  as  being  the  most  extravagant  in 
the  history  of  North  Carolina.  The  year

Legislature  meets  biennially  in  odd  yeara  on  the  Wednesday  after  the  first  Monday

longer  than  60  days  members  "shall  serve  without   compensation." 

STATE  DEBT. — The  old  debt,  excepting  such  as  is  not  recognized,  has  mostly  been 
funded  under  the  funding  laws  of  1879,  the  time  prescribed  for  the  exchange  having 
been  extended  to  January  1,  1905.  These  laws  provided  for  the  issue  of  (1)  consolidat- 
ed 4  p.  c.  bonds  due  in  1910  to  fund  old  ante-war  bonds  at  40  per  cent  of  face  value, 
"New"  railroad  bonds  recognized  as  valid  at  25  per  cent,  and  bonds  of  1866  and 
1868  at  15  per  cent,  nothing  being  given  for  overdue  coupons;  and  (2)  for  new  con- 
solidated 6  per  cent  bonds  due  in  1919,  for  which  the  North  Carolina  RR.  construction 
bonds  were  made  exchangeable  at  par,  holders  of  construction  bonds  abating  $240  of 
overdue  interest  on  each  $1,000  bond.  The  new  bonds,  both  4s  and  6s,  carry  tax-re- 
ceivable coupons,  and  are  exempt  from  "all  State,  county  or  corporate  taxation  or  as- 
sessment, direct  or  indirect,  general  or  special."  The  4s  of  1903  are  also  exempt  from 
taxation. 

In  compliance  with  a  decision  of  the  United  States  Supreme  Court  handed  down 
Feb.  1,  1904,  North  Carolina  on  April  1,  1905,  paid  to  the  State  of  South  Dakota 
$27,400  representing  the  judgment  obtained  by  the  latter  State  on  $10,000  bonds  (do- 
nated to  the  State  of  South  Dakota  for  the  express  purpose  of  bringing  suit,  an  indi- 
vidual not  being  able  to  sue  a  State)  issued  by  North  Carolina  and  secured  by  100 
shares  of  stock  of  the  North  Carolina  Railroad  Co.  and  the  holders  of  which  had 
refused  to  accept  the  provisions  of  the  funding  law  of  1879.  See  V.  78,  p.  594;  V. 
79,  p.  172S;  V.  80,  p.  1382;  and  also  editorials  on  the  subject,  V.  78,  p.  1248;  V.  80, 
p.  1332.  The  State  also  settled  with  the  remaining  holders  of  this  particular  class 
of  unfunded  bonds,  issuing  the'  $250,000  bonds  of  1905  mentioned  below  to  provide 
means  of  payment. 

An  amendment  to  the  State  Constitution  passed  by  the  Legislature  in  1879  and  rati- 
fied by  popular  vote  in  1880,  forbids  the  General  Assembly  to  pay  or  recognize  as 
valid  the  following  bonds:  Special  tax  bonds  $11,366,000;  bonds  to  Chatham  RR,, 
1868,  $1,030,000,  and  to  Williamston  &  Tarboro  RR.,  $150,000;  Penitentiary  bonds  of 
1868,  $44,000,  "unless  the  proposing  to  pay  the  same  shall  have  first  been  submitted 
to  the  people  and  by  them  ratified  by  a  vote  of  a  majority  of  all  the  qualified 
voters  of  the  State  at  a  regular  election  held  for  the  purpose."  The  special  tax  bonds 
are  in  3  classes,  class  1  bearing  the  coupon  of  April,  1869,  and  since;  class  2  bear- 
ing the  coupon  of  October,  1869;  class  3  bearing  the  coupon  of  April,  1870.  Holders 
of  the  special  tax  bonds  brought  suit  to  establish  the  validity  of  their  bonds  and  the 
case  was  decided  in  favor  of  the  State. 

The  recognized  debt  which  had  been  adjusted  up  to  May,  1905,  stood  as  fol- 
lows:

xlnterest  paid  from  earnings  of  State  Prison. 

PAR  VALUE  OF  BONDS.— The  consolidated  4s  are  $50,  $100,  $500  and  $1,000;  the  con- 
solidated 6s  $1,000  each.  The  prison  bondb  are  for  $500  and  $1,000  each.  The  bonds  of 
1903   are  for   $500  and   $1,000   each. 

INTEREST  on  the  consolidated  4s  and  6s  and  South  Dakota  and  Schafer  bonds  is 
payable   in   New  York   at   the  National    Park  Bank  and  in  Raleigh. 

TOTAL  DEBT  RECOGNIZED  AND  TOTAL  ADJUSTED.— The  recognized  fundable 
debt  which  has  been  funded  and  the  recognized  fundable  debt  which  has  not  been 
funded   are   as   follows: 

Funded.        Not  Funded. 

Consols  6  per  cent   $2,720,000  $22,000 

Consols  4  oer  cent   3,409,450  165,120 

To  the  foregoing  we  should  add  the  further  fact  that  the  State  does  not  have  to 
raise  money  for  the  interest  on  the  six  per  cent  bonds  for  the  reason  that  the  lease 
of  the  North  Carolina  Railroad  provides  a  fund  for  the  payment  of  the  interest  there- 
on, and  the  State  holds  three  millions  in  the  stock  of  the  road,  which  if  sold  would  much 
more  than  pay  the  principal.  In  addition  the  State  holds  other  stocks  and  bonds 
valued  at   $1,028,000. 

ASSESSED  VALUATION- -The  State's  assessed  valuation  prior  to  1903,  was  made  on  the 
basis  of  about  2-3  of  the  cash  value;  in  1903,    however,    the   attempt   was   to   assess   at 
tiue    value,    which    accounts    for    the    large  increases  in  that  year.

is  the  oldest  Business  College  in  Virginia,  and  first  to  erect  a  building  of  its  own — 
one  of  the  finest  in  Richmond.  By  refusing  to  resort  to  exaggerated  claims  and  im- 
proper promises  to  get  students,  it  has  forged  to  the  front  among  schools  of  its  kind. 
'Knowing  that  you  have  conducted  for  many  years  the  leading  Business  College  of 
the  South,  we  determined  to  write  to  you,  in  order  to  secure  yoiir  services."  — 
f.  A.  Buell,  Pres't  Bus.  Section,  Minnesota  Educational  Association.  "The  leading 
Business  College  south  of  the  Potomac  river." — Philadelphia  Stenographer.  "When 
I  reached  Richmond,  I  inquired  of  several  business  men  for  the  best  Business  College 
n  the  city,  and  without  exception  they  all  recommended  Smithdeal's  as  the  best."

RECOMMENDS  THE 

K  ELL  AM  CANCER 
HOSPITAL 

WHERE  CANCERS  ARE  CURED  WITHOUT  THE  USE  OF 

THE    KNIFE. 

Roanoke,  Va.,  August  30,  1904. 
While  in  Richmond  attending  to  the  duties  devolving  upon  me  as  a  member  of 
(he  house  of  delegates,  I  had  occasion  to  examine  into  and  know  the  workings  of 
the  Kellam  Cancer  Hospital.  I  believe  that  institution  is  doing  more  to  relieve 
those  suffering  from  cancer  than  any  other  one  institution  in  the  State,  and  is 
worthy    the    confidence    of    those    suffering  from  this  and  like  ailments.
