Our reasons for this choice are as fol- Carr has proven himself loyal to the best interests of North Carolina From tho time he began business to the present hour he has, with an unsparing hand, given his means to build up our industrial, educational and religious enterprises. General Carr's political record is clean. He has a persist and life long Democrat. He has contributed liberally of his and supported with his the candidates of his party in every State and National election, but he has never been intolerant in his spirit or accused of methods, or money corruptly In carrying party through. He has always stood with the people against Trusts and other forms of capital op- press labor or monopolize the bus- of the country. He is largely connected with the agricultural, manufacturing, commercial and banking interests of the State, understands the conditions of our people In every section. has had wide experience as a business men, has an extensive acquaintance with the industrial, educational and political leaders of the country, and has had a reputation for strict integrity and progressive methods among the leading men of the state For these Gen- Carr would worthily rt present the State of North Carolina in the United States Senate, we give him a hearty endorsement purely on the of merit Ex.

SMALL, of A Whits to a strange for- the part of a few Dem- voter as, to fully appreciate the tact that primary month, is a white man's contest. The talk of losing a few bullets in this precinct or that, or for- getting to count ballots for the op- candidate of that all the ballots are read when the count is made, and other little tricks which the man at the box may institute, this kind of talk is going to prove very dangerous if the talk is followed tip by the perpetration of such acts as rule out legitimate white votes. The rules this Sena- primary are laid by the Executive Committee of the Demo- party, and while the prim is not legalized, so that offense committed way be punished under the law, yet there will lie punish- by public exposure if the election is not conducted fair- The rules governing the Senator- primary ought to be to every poll holder. Who can vote and who cannot, is settled. As to the class, men and which makes it a white man's contest. Those who voted the State Dem- ticket in August, and those who will vote the National ticket in November, covers the two of voters. This Senatorial primary may pear to many a trifling affair, a matter to be joked about as lo how the ballots may be cast and count- ed. But let no one make such mis- take, for some thoughtless action some preconceived scheme, may lead to some after developments that will prove anything but a joke to the perpetrators. The candidates and the party's reputation are equally at stake in this Senatorial primary election. New Bern Journal.
