sufficient reason for every loyal
Democrat to pause before ho

GREENVILLE, PITT COUNTY. NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, JUNE 1903
MR. KITCHIN TO SEN. SIMMONS.
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR AN-
SENATOR'S LETTER.
Thinly Senator Should Hold Hands off
Since He Was Elected by Friends
of Candidates.
In the course of his speech in
last night in ref-
to the letter of Senator
Simmons, Mr. Kitchin
February of last year,
Senator Simmons assured me he
would be impartial and
in the gubernatorial
contest. I was guilty of the fol-
of believing it. Within three
weeks before the Legislature ad-
Mr. Craig
to run and told him he would
support him if he He did
not tell me of his change of mind
until the following December.
Heretofore our Senators elected
by friends of all candidates,
a position and
having a special and
influence, have not fit
throw the great weight of such
Influence and prestige in favor
of either candidate, and this i
Senator never did it before either
two, four six years ago,
behalf of any of the dozen
who been before
the people, and even now he
does not, in his open letter, give
his weight to any candidate
Corporation Commissioner, or
Lieutenant Governor, for Com-
missioner of Agriculture or other
position. It is remarkable also
that in this instance he throws
his weight against Colonel Home
and myself, from his section cf
the State, when by the custom
of a generation the nomination
should come east, and ho gives
no reason for seeking to
custom. He does not say
there is any political exigency of
a public character that justifies
it- He does not say that no mar.
in the East has the character,
experience and ability to fill the
office. Ho does not say that any
man in the West towers so fir
above all Eastern men as to
justify it- But the Senator
tries to make the public
think this a contest
himself and Governor Aycock.
He does this for the purpose of
arousing their friends against
Col- Home and He
knows that he and the beloved
ex-governor are involved in
this contest except in so far as
they aggressively sought to in-
themselves in it. He even
speaks of the right to
himself. Will Mr. Craig's deft at
be any upon him Has he
guaranteed Mr. Craig's
Will it be his defeat If
so, why did not the senator let
the public into the secret reasons
that support his position, instead
of in his letter, carefully leaving
the public to its guesses. The
public will think, as I think, his
reasons are personal rather than
patriotic hostile to me as well as
friends to Mr. Craig, for he
advances nothing in Mr- Craig's
favor that has not been claimed
by his friends all over the
for him. He merely adds the
public use of his name to conjure
with, when his favorite has had
the private us of it for fourteen
months.
I regret exceedingly the
of the Senator and the ex-
Governor. I heavy
burden they upon
shoulders in this campaign. It
is unfortunate other
date that they not their

office of Governor. When they
and tho Charlotte Observer line

it is more serious to me than the
opposition of the Southern Rail-
way and the American Tobacco
Company. It may be serious to
the people. If the Senator and

powerful machine in naming
candidates than the one I am
now up against The
tic party shall not, with my con-
sent, fall under such ring rule.
Never before in the history of
this State has such a
hold attempt been made
against the time-honored
custom of letting the people
choose their nominees free
from the undue and
hypnotic suggestions of the
mighty ones whom the friends
of ail candidates have raised on

have the consolation of
knowing that I made a bold and
fight with charity to and
