In your letter you ask for a joint debate upon the amendment, thereby disclosing a purpose on th? part of the organza-tion of your party to commit your partv which it has expressly refused to take in its State Convention. This attemp to raise an issue not made by your convention is manifestly the result of a secret under standing with the Republican party and in line with the action of your party organization since 1894, which has been employed to foster schemes of co-operation with the Republican party and to prevent the individual voter of the People's Party from participating in the naming of candidates or dictating its policy.

It is a matter of common knowledge in North Carolina that there is a perfect understanding between the leaders of the Federal office-holding element of the People's Party and the Republican Party, and in pursuance of this understanding they have secured the nomination of a State ticket and asked for a joint debate in order to divide and divert the attention of the white people while their Republican allies are engaged in their scheme of attempting to again fasten negro rule on the State. Later on by these same tactics, the People's Party will undoubtedly be led into fusion with the Republican Party upon the legislative, county and congressional tickets in all counties and districts here it is thought that fusion will do any good towards the defeat of the amendment and the perpetuation of negro suffrage in North Carolina. Under these circumstances it is impossible to consider the organization ofthe Ptople's Party, as now constituted antl controlled in North Carolina, as having any existence separate and independent from that ot the Republican Party. Uuntil tie organization of the People's Party in this State proves its right inheres his own past II. F.

Concerning the suggestion contained in your letter as to a joint debate between you and the Democratic candidates for the Senate, you are informed that the Democratic Party has no candidate for the Senate and that it does not propose to discuss or consider the Senatorial question until after the question of whether North Carolina is to be governed by the white man or by the negro has been settled in the August election.

From that paramount and all-absorbing question the Democratic Party does not propose to be diverted, eithei by Senatorial contest, sham tickets, or cunningly devised schemes to "play politics."
