COVERS NORTH CAROLINA LIKE A BLANKET Id
m
The new Norfolk Southern System, with over nine hundred miles
of main and branch line trackage, now gives the Old North State a
service unequalled in its history.
The productions from the East, from the truck fields, the Sounds
and the Ocean, will now be in quick touch with the enterprising
country of the West, the sand hill section, the lands of fruit, grain
and minerals.
QUICK TRANSPORTATION and the possibility for the exchange |I|
of products will work greatly to the advantage of both the East
and the West portions of the country, now so closely linked together iji
by the Norfolk Southern System. =1=
IN CORN PRODUCTION North Carolina has records that lead the =*=
world. Within the State there are over 3,000,000 acres of undeveloped
lands, typical corn growing soils, awaiting the experienced corn grow- 5jl
ers of the West, to change idle acres into rich producing farms. ||f
CORN AND COTTON JOIN HANDS IN NORTH CAROLINA.
The Soil, Climate and Rainfall conditions of the State combine for ^\a
the favorable growing of both Corn and Cotton, a condition elsewhere |t=
unknown. "4=
SUMMER AND WINTER RESORTS: The Norfolk Southern System |t|
serves four splendid seaside resorts — Virginia Beach, Va., Cape Henry, ■{■
Va., Beaufort, N. C, and Morehead City, N. C. =i=

1 FOR THE SOUTH I
The Southern Railway is a part of and is vitally
interested in the development and the continued pros-
perity of the South. Its policy is to cooperate just as
fully as possible with the people of the South in the
proper development of the country ; not merely in the
way of giving traffic facilities, but in active, direct
work in the location of industries, the utilization of the
South's natural resources, the bringing in of farmers
and other homseekers, the improvement in farming,
the conservation and building up of the soil, the intro-
duction of dairying, the extension of the live stock in-
dustry, the encouragement of fruit and truck raising,
the marketing of farm products and in the building of
good roads, making more attractive and prosperous
cities and towns and the securing of the best character
of home life.
For the cooperation with the people in all these
directions development and educational agencies have
been established. The service of the Industrial and
Agricultural Department, with its industrial, immigra-
tion, agricultural, live stock and dairy agents, working
for the common interests of the people of the South and
the railroad company, is freely given to all who desire
its cooperation.
The South affords a wide field for its own people
and for great numbers from beyond its borders, its op-
portunities in every line are unsurpassed. The Southern
Railway will assist in making a greater and more pros-
perous South.
Correspondence relative to development and pro-
gress is welcomed.

DEMOCRATIC STATE PLATFORM— 1914
"We the representatives of the Democratic
Party assembled in convention under conditions
of Democratic responsibility in State and Na-
tion, rejoice in the large measure of success
with which Democratic promises have been
enacted into law, and with which Democratic
principles have been applied in restoring equal
opportunities to all sections and all classes.
We reaffirm our allegiance to the cardinal
principles of Democratic government, and we
again present our cause to the people in the
full confidence that a continuation of Demo-
cratic control will result in a complete restora-
tion of the high ideals of constitutional gov-
ernment as established by the fathers of the
Republic, and interpreted to meet the needs of
the progress of the times.
Indorsement of President Wilson's Administra-
tion.
We indorse the administration of Woodrow
Wilson, and the broad statesmanship, high
ideals, earnestness and application with which
he is administering his high office. The Dem-
ocratic Party under brave and wise leadership
has merited the confidence and the support of
the American people. It has restored the Gov-
ernment to the people and wrested the Gov-
ernment from the hands of the favored classes,
in which the Republicans had placed it. The
tariff has been revised downward, and the
power to tax the people wrested from the
favored few. It has destroyed monopoly of
credit and enacted a system which will insure
equal banking facilities for all of the people
without regard to section or class.
Foreign Policy Indorsed.
We especially commend the just and patriotic
foreign policy of the President of the United
States. In dealing with other nations, our
country, under the guidance of President Wil-
son's great intelligence and sincere love of jus-
tice, has acknowledged no standard of con-
duct beneath that demanded by Christian na-
tions.
Indorsement of Senators and Representatives in
Congress.
We heartily indirse the record of achieve-
ment and leadership in the National Congress
of our United States Senators and Representa-
tives, and take pride in the opportunity that
came to our State to furnish their wise and
seasoned leadership in the successful working
out of the great problems of a National Demo-
cratic Administration.
Indorsement of State Administration.
We indorse the administration of Governor
Locke Craig, and the other State officials, and
especially commend the successful efforts of the
General Assembly, the Governor, and the Cor-
poration Commission for the readjustment of
our interstate freight rates; and we express
the confidence that their zeal in this cause will
be productive of further fruitful results until
discriminations in freight rates will be entirely
removed; and we pledge a continuation of our
efforts to remove all such discriminations.
Education.
We rejoice in the progress our State is mak-
ing in the cause of the education of all the
children under Democratic rule, and we pledge
to the people of the State the continued sup-
port of the party until a six months school
in every district throughout North Carolina
shall be a realization, and the resources of the
State under Democratic rule will be used to
promote ths end as rapidly as economic con-
ditions permit, and to this end we urge the
adoption of the amendment to the Constitution
providing for the establishment of a six months
school. We urge that the efforts of those men
and institutions engaged in the splendid work
of conserving the health of our people, in
eradicating disease and preventing infection,
be seconded with enthusiastic and unstinted
support, both by State and local government.
Enforcement of Prohibition Laws.
We stand for the strict upholding of the laws
prohibiting the sale and manufacture of in-
toxicating liquors, in the enforcement of which
great progress has been made. We are glad
by the evidence that both drinking and drunk-
enness and the crime that they bring are
rapidly decreasing.
Legalized State-Wide Primary.
We indorse the principles of a legalized
State-wide primary for all National, State and
Judicial officers, and we pledge the party to
the enactment of such laws as will make this
principle applicable to all politcal parties.
Revise Penal System.
We recommend that our penal system be re-
vised in light of the most modern methods.
Reduction of Freight Rate.
We congratulate all concerned upon the ad-
vances made by our Governor and the General
Assembly, and especially upon the epoch-
making victory recently won before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, in the matter of
relieving North Carolina points of the discrimi-
nation in freight tariffs in favor of points in
other States; and we urged that the struggle so
well begun shall be pressed until there shall
not remain a shadow of suspicion that the peo-
ple of this State labor under disadvantage so
far as the common carriers are concerned, both
interstate and intrastate.
Insurance Rates.
We likewise ask that the present investiga-
tion of insurance rates be pressed to a con-
clusion that will remove all question as to
discrimination adverse to our people on this
point.

Aid to Farmers — Rural Credits.
We bring before our party the especial de-
mands and the needs of the farmers of North
Carolina, in the conviction that all that serves
them serves all the people. We recommend
that the State foUow up its increasingly use-
ful work of inspection, education, and instruc-
tion, with aid to a system of rural credits,
designed to enable the producers of the wealth,
from which the State draws its life, to manage
their enterprises at the lowest possible rate of
interest and to market their products to the
best advantage. We urge our Representatives
in Congress to uphold the President in his
plans to aid our farmers in the matter of rural
credits. We recommend the encouragement of
studies in practical agriculture in our free
schools.
Conservation of Resources.
We recommend the enactment of effective
legislation to control our natural resources,
especially our forests and fisheries and our
wild game, and that such legislation be, so far
as possible, State-wide.
Good Roads.
We urge the building of good roads through-
out the State, and the encouragement of our
farmers in the splendid progress which they
are making in the improved condition of coun-
try life.
Public Health.
We demand every possible safeguard for the
health of the people of the State, and that the
government of the State shall be at all times
responsive to the needs, demands, and happi-
ness of our people.
REPUBLICAN STATE PLATFORM— 1914
The North Carolina Republican State Con-
vention, duly assembled in Raleigh on March
1st. 1916, congratulates its voters tha.t all in-
ternal dissentions are so happily ended and that
the calamity of a National Democratic admin-
istration, coupled with an extravagant and
inefficient Democratic State Administration, has
brought about a reunion, based upon mutual
respect and understanding, which reunion is
being strengthened daily by the addition of
voters who are casting aside prejudice and are
joining in the advancement of the common good.
We are determied to bring back our nation to
Protection for American industry and labor
and to the prosperity which follows our time-
honored protective policies; we are determined
to rid our State of useless office holders and
official extravagance and scandals to the end
that the reckless spending of the people's money
shall not be permitted to increase taxes to
the point of confiscation.
We demand in State affairs:
(1) Fair Elections.
(2) Equitable Taxation upon a Basis of
Economy.
(3) Auditing of all our Financial Affairs.
(4) Improved School System and Agricul-
tural Education.
(5) Convict Employment in Public Works.
(6) General Progressive and Labor Legisla-
tion.
We demand in National affairs:
(a) Return to Protection.
(b) Preparedness for Peace.
(c) Honest Civil Service.
(d) Rural Credit System.
(e) Restriction of Immigration.
(f) Upholding Rights of Americans.
These demands in our State may be en-
larged upon as follows:
(1) Fair Elections: The safety of our State
and nation depends upon the free and un-
trammelled expression of the will of the people
at the ballot box; we demand an Australian
voting system that each citizen may vote his
choice and sentiments, free from exposure, mo-
lestation or dangerous influence; frauds at the
ballot box must cease.
(2) Equitable Taxation Upon a Basis of
Economy: We demand taxation reform in
which every citizen, individually or collectively,
and all property shall bear their just share
of the burden of governmental support, and no
more; such a system as will not place a pre-
mium upon dishonest avoidance of taxes nor
leave taxpayers at the mercy of unscrupulous
and scheming officials, who try to majte party
gains by discrimination against thoso who will
not make political contributions, and by favors
to those who do.
In addition to equitable taxation we demand
the strictest business economy compatible with
efficiency, and to the end that no bond issues
shall be made or debts incurred beyond the
constitutional limitation, except it be ordered or
approved by a majority of at least three-fifths
of the quauified voters who shall also name
those who shall control the expenditure of
moneys, and wo hereby pledge ourselves to a
reduction of the burdensome taxes now im-
posed upon our people.
We demand for our educational and other
institutions liberality to their utmost needs ; we
denounce the treatment by the Democratic party
of our old soldiers, who aro the most sacred
heritage of our generation and wo demand for
these patriots that care and comfort which is
theirs by right and ours by duty.
(3) Auditing of all our Financial Affairs:
Our financial affairs are in a most desperate
condition, as evidenced by reports of commit-
tees officially appointed, and we demand an
expert accounting of same from the accounts
of the State Treasurer, through all our public
institutions of education and charity, down to
II
POLITICAL ORG AN I XA TIONS — PROGRESSIVE PLATFORM— 1914
the smallest boards or individuals who use
the public fui
This is demanded that the people may know
tin- whole truth of their financial condition
about which they have been kept in ignorance
so long; such expert auditing of our affairs
would have prevented the scandals which have
become so common in our departments and in-
stitutions.
Improved School System and Agricul-
tural Education: We demand the selection of
lents of public instruction and
of our school boards l>.v the people in every
county ami thus place education in the hands
of parents in, trad of at the mercy ol political
demagogues; certainly more than fifty years of
ratic education ami good government
should have fitted our people to be able to
the education ot their own children;
we demand a school system based upon the
■ intents of our Constitution, which pro-
vides for "a general and uniform system"
which would give equal school advantages to all,
wherever located; such a Constitutional system
should be provided that will give a six months'
school term in every district, which can be
done with a great savins; of taxes now wasted
under the present scheme of politically governed
schools with the flagrant extravagance ; we de-
mand the extending of agricultural education
and the encouraging of a movement back to
the soil; we favor legislation that will assist
direct distribution of farm products; such
education and such legislation, as will encour-
age producers, will make our State great and
self-supporting.
(5) Convict Employment in Public Works:
We demand the employment of our convicts
on public works for the public good, such as
meat public highways, instead of in lines which
will bring them in competition with producers
and laborers; furthermore, we demand just and
humane treatment of convicts and punishment
of criminal guards and overseers who vent their
brutal spite upon these helpless unfortunates.
(6) General Progressive and Labor Legis-
lation : We demand of the General Assembly
such progressive legislation as this advanced age
has proven necessary, and we suggest among
such attention to the following: All precau-
tions of modern science for the preservation of
health and the protection of life and limb ;
workmen's compensation laws that damages for
accidents may be equitably adjusted without un-
necessary expense or delay ; laws for healthful
housing and for fire protection; an exemption
of moderate savings from taxation that our
savings institutions may be placed upon the
same' plane as the postal savings bank system;
some form of mutual or social insurance which
will protect the home against the hazards of
sickness, irregular employment and old age.
Such laws must be so formed as not to offer
public aid as a substitute for industry and
frugality. We demand protection and promo-
tion of the fish and oyster industry of the
State and relief from unjust and burdensome
laws passed by the last legislature in regard
thereto. These demands in our nation may be
enlarged upon as follows:
(a) Return to Protection: Protection for
America industry and labor is the cornerstone
of Republican principles. This faith has been
by the present disastrous near-
free-tradi tariff which had brought this country
to the verge of distress and ruin before the
European war. Spasmodic and scattered war
contracts, bringing gains from the misfortunes
and miseries ol others, are a poor substitute for
steady markets and universal prosperity under
Protection Desertion of Protection has brought
all kinds of direct taxation including a so-called
war tax in time ol peace; has depleted our
treasury just when Democratic expenditures
were the greatest in our history; has crippled
our greatest industries, and has thrown mil-
lions out of regular employment.
Protection must be re-established as a right
to all and not sold, under some other name,
iavor to a few.
(h) Preparedness for Peace: We demand a
preparedness for this country against any ag-
gression from any foreign power.
The present war has demonstrated that no
unprepared nation is safe and we cannot per-
mit a noble love for peace to leave us help-
less.
While we will not prepare for war, we must
be in a state of preparedness for peace.
(c) Honest Civil Service: We stand for
honest civil service reform, which has been so
dishonestly outraged by the present Democratic
administration; we denounce the backward step
taken in the assaults upon the merit system in
order to place so-called "deserving Democrats"
in offices held by those who have stood the
test, and we denounce the further misuse of
power by trying now to "cover under civil ser-
vice" those who have received reward under
the spoils system, because they see "the hand-
writing on the wall" foretelling the downfall
of their unfaithful party.
(d) Rural Credit System: We demand a
Rural Credit System such as was promised in
the last national Republican platform and such
as is now being formulated and perfected by the
farmers' organizations over the State and Na-
tion.
(e) Restriction of Immigration: It would be
but an act of folly to protect our products
against unfair competition of cheap, foreign
labor and yet permit the pauper, and often
criminal, foreign laborer himself to enter out
country and lower the plane of living of our
own people.
We demand such laws as will forever keep
the ignorant, the diseased, and the criminal
from our shores.
if) Upholding Rights of Americans: We de-
mand the protection of the lives and propeny
of American citizens wherever such citizens may
be lawfully abiding or traveling. The national
Policy toward Mexico and European countries
has been weak and vacillating, by turns un-
duly timid and unwisely pugnacious.
Americans have been robbed, violated, and
slaughtered without redress and American pres-
tige lowered in every country on the globe; we
demand a return to a strictly American policy.
Upon the principles here enunciated we ap-
peal to the patriotic voters to join us in re-
deeming the I Ud North State and in making
her better, greater, and grander.
PROGRESSIVE STATE PLATFORM— 1914
PLATFORM OF PROGRESSIVE PARTY,
ADOPTED AT GREENSBORO, SEPT. 3,
1912.
We, the representatives of the Progressive
Party in North Carolina, in our first State
convention assembled, conscious of our respon-
sibilities as citizens and convinced of the
righteousness of the cause we espouse, confess
our faith in the national Progressive platform.
pledge our efforts to promote their enactment
into law, and declare our allegiance to Roose-
velt and Johnson, the distinguished candidates
of the party for president and vice-president of
the United States.
Confronted for years in this State by unfor-
tunate political conditions, which excluded in-
telligent political discussion of State affairs,
embittered public discussion, and produced poli-
tical intolerance, we may now congratulate our-
selves as a people that the baneful era is passed,
and, in this nation-wide progressive movement
toward higher ideals of statesmanship in deal-
ing with economic, social and industrial ques-
tions, which press upon us as for solution,
there is no place for the antiquated issues of
a dead past. Every man. we believe, whose
conscience is awake to the obligations of citi-
zenship should intelligently and resolutely, at

whatever sacrifice, align himself with that
political party which represents his views as to
State and national issues. This is freedom.
This is liberty. It is patriotic duty.
National Platform.
The national platform of the Progressive
Party in its stand for only "honest protection"
which shall "equalize conditions of competition
between the United States and foreign countries
both for the farmer and the manufacturer, and
which shall maintain for labor an adequate
standard of living;" for the conservation of our
natural resources; the drainage of our swamp
lands and the building of resources to supply
water to our arid wastes; for governmental effi-
ciency in all departments of our government,
executive, legislative and judicial, with the re-
call of judicial decisions on constitutional ques-
tions; for the restoration of this government
from the rule of the bosses, who are the sub-
servient tools of the special interests, to the
rule of the people as expressed in primaries and
elections; for the betterment of the conditions
of farm life, protection to working men, and
minimum scale of wages for working women ;
for control and regulation of railroads and
corporations, but for social and industrial jus-
tice applied to all classes and conditions of
society; and in outlining a program of prac-
tical legislation of needed reforms, constitutes
in itself a call of righteousness to Hit- patriotic
citizens of this land.
Appeal to Electors.
We, therefore, appeal to the electors of this
State, whatever their past political afflliat s,
to read and digest our platform with impartial
consideration and, if in accord with its riew .
to unite with us in this progressive movement
to attain for the people the much needed legis
lation.
In the spirit of progress, looking forward and
not backward, we believe the time lias e in
this State for its citizens, "ho would lay
broadly and deeply the basis of our future
civilization on practical achievements and firm
moral standards, to unite their efforts in bring-
ing about social, industrial, legislative and
judicial reforms in the State, as well as the
national government.
We need the spirit of a broader statesman-
ship in this State, the vision of things to be
done in the service of the people, and the
devotion of men to the substantial welfare of
the State, apart from personal ambition, and the
concentration of the public mind upon our
agricultural, industrial, educational and moral I
advancement.
We. therefore, applying the progressive spirit
of the affairs of State, advocate;
Primaries and Elections.
1. Honesty in the conduct of primaries and
elections. There is no difference between poli-
tical and personal honesty in any standard
nt morals. The corrupt use of money in party
primaries and public elections is a growing evil
in this State. The sacredness of the ballot boi
is essential to the preservation of our liberties
We favor the passage of a corrupt practice act,
applicable alike to all primaries and elections.

superintendents ol education should be elected
by the people We condemn as unjust the
practice of making school districts so as to lay
tin special tax schooling on corporate or other
ipecial property owners Education in the pub-
lic schools should be directed to equipping the
boy for some practical occupation, and the girl
in a knowledge of domestic science and econo-
my. Our lady teachers, now underpaid, not
averaging salaries greater than paid to un-
ted colored day laborers, should bo ade-
quately compensated for their services that they
maj be able the better to equip themselves for
their work, and others to be encouraged to
enter the profession. Chivalry to them de-
mands it. This is social justice.
:<. The public institutions of this State,
alike educational and charitable, should be
liberally sustained, but in the interest of effl-
and wise economy, all supplies to these
and other departments should be purchased and
supervised by a non-partisan commission to be
appointed by the governor. Estimates of ma-
terials required should be made at the be-
ginning of each year and contracts awarded.
alter advertisements, to the lowest bidder, the
materials to be delivered as required in the
current year; thus enabling the State to pur-
chase in quantities at the lowest price. It has
been said by a leading business man, once a
member of the board of one of our public in-
stitutions, that three intelligent business men,
supervising the expenditures of all of our public
institutions, could save the State $75,000 an-
nually.
Board of Health.
1 The Legislature in concurrence with the
medical societies of the State, should liberally
sustain and extend the work of the State board
of health by appropriating ample means for its
efficiency maintenance in disseminating a knowl-
edge of sanitary laws and the eradication of pre-
ventable diseases. Statistics show that the
death rate from typhoid fever in North Carolina
is four times the average in Switzerland. No
people can be a great people who are not
strong, virile and healthy. The State should
take every possible means known to modern
science to preserve the health of its people. Our
climate naturally is healthy and invigorating
and we should maintain a high standard of
public health by the strict enforcement of all
sanitary laws.
Penal Institutions.
5. Our penal institutions should be cor-
rective and reformatory in their purpose. Pris-
oners should be treated humanely. Murder is
murder, whether committed by prison guard
or other person and discipline is not dependent
upon severity. The parole system should be
introduced and liberally granted to prisoners.
Convicts should be employed only on public
works and roads. Society derives no economic
benefit when it imprisons the citizen, what-
ever his crime, and deprives those dependent
upon him of support and pockets the proceeds
of his labor. The profit derived by the county
or State from the labor of convicts falls on
the innocent, wife, child or others whom the
convict may have supported. We. therefore,
advocate the passage of a law requiring the
State or county to pay to the family of the
convict all income derived from his labor at a
lair compensation over and above his necessan
support while confined, and laws which will
put into practice such training as will better
fit the convict for citizenship when discharged.
This is enlightened social justice.
Registration Laws — Torrens System.
6. Our registration system is antiquated. We
favor the adoption of the Torreon system. The
State should undertake a State survey of its
territory on lines by which all titles may be
ultimately conveyed. The Torrens system
means that the owner of the land, at his op-
tion, submits his title to examination, the State
corrects all defects, if any guarantees the title
and possession and issues to the owner a cer-
tificate which certifies his title. A duplicate
of the certificate is retained at the register's
office, and on the transfer of the property the
certificate is surrendered to the register, can-
celled, and a new certificate issued to the
purchaser. The land cannot be conveyed after-
wards except by a surrender of the certifl-
cate. Temporary loans can be made by at-
taching this certificate to a note, since, without
the possession of the certificate, the owner could
not part with the property, in the same manner
as stock certificates of corporations are used as
collateral. The State in the first instance col-
lects a small percentage on the tax valuation,
which is paid into a fund to protect its guar-
anty. This system would bring land into an
active market as collateral, facilitate transfers,
add to land values, and enable small loans to
be made without the expense of legal examin-
ation and the drawing of deeds. If necessary,
we favor a constitutional amendment to make
this system permanent and effective in this
State.
Tax Laws.
7. Our tax laws should be moderated. Hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars on personal prop-
erty escape taxation. Local tax assessors un-
dervalue land to avoid the payment of taxes to
the State on a proper valuation. Laws should
be passed to equalize tax assessments, so that
all property should bear pro rata the burden of
taxes.
The Courts..
8. The Legislature, in concurrence with the
bench and bar of this State, should remodel
our court procedure. "The law's delay" is
proverbial, but its very life is in the prompt
enforcement of criminal law and in the re-
dress of private grievances without delay. The
non- enforcement of the law in many sec-
tions of our State has become a public scandal.
There is no use of passing statutes without en-
forcing them and you cannot enforce them
without the means to do so. The attorney gen-
eral's department should be given greater power
and should be allowed legal assistance to man-
age all litigation in which the State is in-
volved and supervise the proper enforcement of
criminal statutes. There should be a contin-
gent fund placed at his disposal to be used
by htm when the emergency arises for the de-
tection and punishment of criminals. Our
system of criminal law and detection should
be adjusted to meet the conditions of a more
complex population.
Freight Discrimination.
9. The discrimination of freight rates against
the cities and towns of this State is a matter
of serious import and continuous loss to our
people. In the short-sighted policy of the
lease of the North Carolina railroad, at mid-
night and secretly, several years in advance of
the termination of the old lease and for a period
of ninety-nine years, at the rate of seven per
cent, on the stock held by the State, and the
parting with the control of that property, is
partly the occasion of the discrimination, and
when it appeared the State could have leased it
at 10 per cent., if competition had been open,
the direct loss to the State is the difference be-
tween 7 and 10 per cent., or the loss of
$90,000 each year for the period of ninety-nine
years, and the inexcusable action of the State
Legislature of 1899 in permitting the dismem-
berment of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley
railroad, when a former Legislature had pro-
hibited its dismemberment and the Federal
courts held it could not be legally done, with-
out legislative permission, whereby the road was
divided, the western half passing to the South-
cut ami the eastern half to the Coast Line, is
another cause of freight discrimination.
This dismemberment cutl,500 square miles of
trading territory from the seaport of Wilming-
ton, subordinated the control of the western
seetinii of the road to Norfolk and northern
markets, and destroyed the benefit of lower
freight rates in competition with the water
rates through Wilmington and Southport. These
wrongs to the State serve to illustrate the
domination of public and legislation by the
special interests and, in the latter case, was
concurrent with large contributions of the rail-
roads to the campaign fund of the dominant
political party. The loss to the State directly
or indirectly has been incalculable. We favor

the proper action by the State Legislature
through the courts and by appeal to the State
and Interstate Corporation commissions to
ameliorate the unjust discrimination in freight
rates against this State.
Corporation.
10. Corporations, industrial and railroad, are
necessary agencies for our material develop-
ment, and they should be protected in their
just rights and accorded a "square deal," but
they should be required at all times to con-
duct their operations in fairness to others, and
the public interests. We oppose industrial cor-
porations known as trusts; favor the repeal of
the present State statute permitting one cor-
poration to own stock in another, and the pas-
sage of a law which will prohibit it and pre-
vent all combinations in restraint of trade
which are oppressive and unreasonable.
Water Powers.
11. The natural water powers of the State
should be owned and controlled by the State.
The development of these water powers, under
the State's supervision, would repay with in-
terest the cost and largely contribute in time
to the State's revenue. The concrete dam once
constructed the power could be leased to electric
companies for transmission under conditions
which would prevent the possihility of private
monopoly. The Legislature could make pro-
vision to acquire by condemnation for the public
use all undeveloped water power and the
credit of the State should be used for this
development as the power could be used. This
would be conservation of our natural resources.
State Canals.
12. The Federal government is now open-
ing up the Cape Fear river from Wilmington
to Fayetteville with a permanent eight-foot
channel. The State should supplement this
work of the government by extending an inland
canal system, which is feasible and was once
begun, but abandoned in the early history of
the State. The effect would be to give central
North Carolina a water rate to the ocean.
Employers' Liability Act.
13. We favor the passage by the State of
an employers' liability act, providing for com-
pensation of injured working men, similar to
such statutes adopted by the Federal govern-
ment and in other States; the abolition of the
doctrine of contributory negligence and as-
sumption of risk in all eases, and laws to
safeguard workmen in dangerous employments.
The fact that in industrial plants operating
machinery, and on railroads, over one-half
of a million injuries occur annually, as re-
ported to the accident insurance companies,
make such laws imperative as a duty to human-
ity.
14. We favor the creation of State loan
and land banks to In' operated under State
supervision and control loans to be made on
real estate only within a given radius of the
location of each bank, such banks not to be
allowed tn engage in commercial banking
Object: to utilize the capital of each com-
munity in facilitating loans, bring land into
the market as collateral, and to employ through
the medium of the bank the savings of the
people to the advance of their own community.
The commercial hank and the savings bank
each have distinct functions. The practice in
vogue in this State by which national banks,
doing a commercial business, operate so-called
savings banks subsidiary thereto, as an indirect
means of paying interest on deposits, which are
used in commercial transactions, should be pro-
hibited. The directors and officers of one bank
should not hold similar positions or exercise
control in another bank, as it tends to con-
centrate the control of banking facilities. The
savingsbanks should by law, be confined to
their proper sphere and their loans should be
made within the State on staple securities so as
to keep the people's deposits within the State
for its upbuilding and to prevent our capital
being sent to other States where the rates of
interest are higher. The custom of these so-
called savings banks paying four per cent,
interest on deposits and loaning their de-
posits on commercial paper in other States at
rates of interest higher than those provided
by statute in North Carolina should be pro-
hibited by law.
Agriculture.
15. The influence of our State agricultural
department, supplementing the work of the
Federal government, upon approved farm meth-
ods, has been potential for good. It should be
liberally maintained and its field of operation
extended as occasion demands. The farm is
the basis of our wealth. The farmers' prosperi-
ty is the nation's prosperity. Legislation, State
and Federal, should be directed toward better-
ing the condition of the fanner and in colabora-
tion- with his organized societies, devise ways
and means to promote the highest efficiency of
agriculture, in all its branches, and the wel-
fare of the tiller of the soil.
Public Roads.
16. The convenience, ecenomy and necessity
of public roads is now recognized. The State
should issue bunds ami build a system of State
highways from the seacoast to the mountains,
cross sectioned from the Virginia to the South
Carolina line, of permanent construction, and
as a basis of an interconnecting system of high-
ways all over the State, leaving the counties
free to connect their local roads to such main
highways.
Swamp Lands.
17. The drainage of Bwamp land would be
of inestimable advantage to the State. Tin
State should employ engineers to lav oil' areas
to be drained, [ssui I "ids for the p
and distribute the cost between the owner
of the drained lands, according to the benefit
each derives and collect bj pecial assessment
from the land owners, levied annually over
long periods of time, the money so e\
and advanced, which should be applied to the
payment and redemption of the bonds issued.

Conclusion.
We invite the co-operation of the men and
women of our state who are willing to strive
in unselfish purpose to develop the natural
resources, which Cod has given us to utilize,
and to advance our civilization on high ideals

"READ IT BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO"
'The News and Observer Is An Institution
Read By Something Like 75,000 People,
Two-Fifths of Whom Hate
It Like The Devil."
(From The News and Observer, November 19, 1911.)
In connection with its year's work on the newspaper situation, Collier's offered
sixty prizes of fifty dollars each in the cities and regions of the United States and
Canada for the best letters from readers concerning their newspapers. It prints the
prize-winning letters. In its issue of last week it prints' the prize North Carolina let-
ter — It was written by Dr. G. M. Cooper, of Clinton, and his subect was "The News
and Observer." Colliers' paid Dr. Cooper fifty dollars for the letter, as it paid fifty-
nine others who wrote the best criticism concerning newspapers in all the States.
These letters have been interesting and illuminating and helpful both to the public and
to the editors. It is a good thing for an editor to read the opinion of a subscriber,
particularly when a great newspaper, like Collier's' thinks enough of the opinion of
the writer to pay fifty dollars for it. If he is a wise editor he will be helped by
candid criticisms. Dr. Cooper's is most kind, but is the sort of criticism of which it
was said by the highest authority : "Faithful are the wounds of a friend." Here is
his article for which Collier's paid Dr. Cooper fifty dollars :
RALEIGH, N. C.
I read the daily "News and Observer" of Raleigh, N. C. That paper is an institu-
tion. It is read by something like seventy-five thousand people, two-fifths of whom
hate it like the Devil, but read it just the same. Why ? Because they have to. Its
policies make and unmake Governors, Senators, Judges and lights.' of lesser magni-
tude. Politically it is mightier than all the politicians and bosses in the State, for
the simple reason that it is backed by public opinion.
Ask any of the enemies why they read The News and Observer and the answer is
always the same : "It publishes the news." That is literally the truth ; nothing of
real interest is suppressed. By '"news" I do not mean the sickening stories of crime
and domestic infelicity that fill the columns of most daily papers. I mean news of
political importance or of significance to society in general. In other words, its news
matter is clean and healthy. In its editorials it reflects the best thought of the
soundest thinkers in the country and especially of the South.
Another good reason for the influence wielded by this paper is its direct personal
appeal. No one knows or cares who owns its stock, but every line it publishes is
universally regarded as the honest, sincere convictions of the editor. To illustrate this
point : It is Democratic in politics, and whenever a Republican speaker or paper al-
ludes' to an editorial in The News and Observer they always refer to "Josephus" (its
editor is Josephus Daniels). That is "personal journalism" which might make even a
Nelson or a Watterson take notice. No mortal man can measure the influence which
this one paper exerts. It has fought and won many battles for better conditions in
North Carolina. Its voice has been remarkably clear for the people against special
privilege in national affairs.
Much more might be said in commendation of this paper, which for many a year
to come bids fair to continue master of the newspaper field in this section of the
South. But what I have said is sufficient to illustrate its power for good.
On the other hand, what critic : sm have I to offer? Very little. First, and chief,
it is not at all times and in all things consistent. For instance, it carries no whiskey
advertisements, but thousands of its friends are frequently forced to blush with shame
at some of its glaring patent medicine announcements.
Second, and in conclusion; as a friend to the principles for which this paper
stands ; as one who loves the glorious history of this great country, and who hopes
for its future, I would beseech its editor to beware lest in its zeal for the cause he
brings to me, perhaps unconsciously, just a little more of the spirit of partizanship
than of the spirit of democracy.
