Just before the mecting of the committee this writer was standing Chairman Simmons entwoof his came up witha copy of Major Hale’s resolu- One of these friends of Chair- inan Simmons, calling attention to utions, said “if this passes, there are Populists throuvhout the State who will vote for Bryan and the Democratic can- didate for Congress in order to vote ugainst you, for the Populists hate you more bitterly than they do any other Democrat in the State.

Justat this time when the Republican party is threateaing the South with reduced representation in Coneress and the enactment of another force bill, when a Republi- can President and.Congress can do Li so much to nullify our constitution- lamendment, it is of the utmost iportance that a Democratic Pres- ident and Congress be elected. By extending the qualifications for vot- ing in the primary as suggested in this resolution we may secure votes for Bryan and our nominees for Con- eress.

Now we understand there are ma- ny Populists throughout the State who openly boast that they will vote the Democratic ticket ‘tin order to wet a chance at Simmons.”’ We hear of some of them in Iredell county. Itis hopedthat Democrats will see toit that Chairman Sim- mons’ patriotic devotion to the Democratic party when he knew it would be burtful to his individual in- terests will not go unrewarded. F. M.

State Chairman Simmons will speak here on Thursday, October Idth, at 2 o'clock, p m., and at Mooresville on Friday.October 19th, at 2 o'clock, p. tn. He will not discuss his personal sandidacy for the Senate but will speak onthe issues of the campaiga for Brydfand Kluttz. He is one of the State’s very strongest speakers and our people should all hear him He was advertised to speak here just before the August election, but was compelled to send Hon. F. 8. Spruill as his substitute on account of the pressing duties which requir- ed him to remain at headquarters in Raleigh. He will certainly be here on the 18th and at Mooresville on the 19th. There is great curiosity among our peopie to see and hear our State chairman, of whom they have have heard so much, and there will doubtless be great crowds here and at Mooresville to hear him up- hold the candidates and principles of Democracy. Democrats should turn out en masse to hear the man who has successfully led the fights for the redemption of the State from fusion misrule and for permanent white supremacy. The Demand Greater that the Supply. It has been called to our attention that there is areport abroad that no leaf tobacco will be bought on this market this year and that the ware- houses have closed. Of course this report is entirely false. Both warehouses are open and the demand for leaf tobacco is far greater than the supply. Our manufacturers are anxious ,to buy their tobacco here and the very highest prices will be paid for it. All our factories will be operated pext year as usual, and farmers will | find this one of the best markets in the State on which to sell their to bacco. ——— Death of Mr. Mise. Mr. John W.

The attendance at the show was not so good, as a cold drizzling rain had set in before the parade closed. The parade was very fair for shows of its kind, a large aumber of Indians, cowboys and cavalrymen being in line. The exhibition was fully up to the average, some of the features being especially good. The best work wes done by the riders of the bucking broncos and by tne cowboy trick riders, A feature of special interest was the exhibition by the South American ‘“‘wauchos,’’ or cow voys from the Pampas, and the cavalry drill rep- resenting all branches of Uncle Sam’s cavalry from the regulars to the Cubans and the Indian scouts.

Three Prominent Citizens of Newbern Write Concerning Chairman Sim- mons: Chairman Simmons lived in New- bern until three years ago for many ~ears aud practiced law there. The Following letter. from three proml- nent citizensiof that city shows in what esteem heis held among his own neighbors: To the Editor of The Observer: Tne position of Senator from North Carolina in the United States Senate is indeed a great and honor- ible one, and should be filled by our best equipped citizen. The in- ‘erests of North Carolina are great and important. Our State has rade, and is making, phenomenal st s in advancement along all the ines—agricultural, manufacturing and political. By the adoption of ‘he suffrage amendment to our con- -titution, by a unprecedental major- ‘ty our people are filled with en- thusiasm, and their bosoms swell with great hopes of peace, prosperl- ty and happiness. “Weare about toenter anational campaign of great importance, and our party never was in better order or more fully aroused: The great <sues involved are well defined and will be held before the people so that they can make no mistakes. Our convention, in its wisdom, has -een fit to make a departure from iid rules and practices in regard to the selection of a Senator to succeed Senator Butler. This isa very im- portant matter, and the party has Jeemed it best to submit the selec- tion of our candidate, who will of cource be elected, to the Democrats of the State; and every Democrat wili have an opportunity to express his choice for Senator, Among the «entlemen mentioned for this high :nd honorable position is the Hon, furnifold M. Simmons of Raleigh, formerly of Jones and Cravea coun- Mr. Simmons is well known ‘rom one end of the State toanother. lis advancement from early man- ood to his present ripe middle age, in his profession, in his high and honorable standing with his people, nd in the councils and management of the party as member as chairman of the executive committee, is too well known for comment. Mr. Simmons is now 46 years of ave. When he first came to man- hood he began the practice of law, his chosen profession, and soon forg- ed to the front, being employed in nearly all the important trials that vere had in the courts in his section the State, and he had and has the confidence of his clients. In 1886 he was clected to Congress from the second district, and his recore shows Lim to have been a most active and ‘tlicient member he was prudent, wise, intelligentand successful toa most wonderful degree. In fact, while Mr. Simmons was a member for only one term, he was more suc- cessful in passing bills of great im- sortance to his constituents—many of them carrying large appropria- than any of his predecssors xe successors. The splendid public building at Newbern, the shell-rock ‘oad to the Federal cemetery near Newbern, and the beautiful cutter Winona are monuments to his ener- ev and success. Hisseat was near that of that great Democrat, Sam J. Randall. Weare informed Mr. Ran- dall said of Mr. Simmons, that he had passed more bills of importance to his district during his two years’ term than any member has _ passed uring his tirst term in his recollec- tion and predicted a great career for him in Congress if continued there. Mr. Simmons, we are informed, soon became highly respected by the other members of the House of Representatives, and won many iriends in the Senate, because of his knowledge of public matters, his energy and activity and great abili- ty. Mr. Simmons isan able debater and profound thinker and never en- ters a contest unprepared. It is of creat importance that we shall have such amanas Mr. Simmons in the Senate to defend the suffrage amend- ment from any attacks that may be made upon it by our political ene- mies. Heisentirely familiar with this question, He has made the le- vality of the amendment a question of much thought and deep concern, and in our opinion is aswell qualitied to discuss the constitutionality of the amendment as any man _ in the State. Those who heard his master- iul arguments upon this question upon the stump, and his severe ar- raignment of the Republicans and their allies, were convinced of bis eminent fitness todefend the cause of white supremacy. His courage, energy and faithful devotion to the best interests of the State inspired those who served under him witha determination to overcome the ene- mies of good government in our state. We hope a grateful people in rec- ognition of his distinguished ability as a lawyer and statesman, and of his eminent and faithful public ser- vice will reward him by electing him United States Senator. We feel sure if he is elected the re- putation of the State will be in able aod safe hands, and North Carolina will again take her stand in the front ranks in the national Senate. M.D. W. STEVENSON, D. L. Warp, L. J, Moore. Newbern, Sept., 28, 1900, ~~ ——2> © <a — Must Defeat Whoever He Be. Concord Standard. There are some whisperings that the real opponent of Mr. Kluttz in the seventh congressiona! district may not be Mr. J. Q. Holton. The temptation of the party to get rid of him and run a stronger man is very great, of courSe, but the man for the occasion is not so easily found. It is said that Mr. A.C. Shuford is being looked upon. He has the ree- ommendation of having beaten two men for Congress and of being very ill-suited for the place. But he or anyone else will be a dangerous com- petitor if the Democrats are too in- different or over-contident to come out-to the polls and vote. Mr. Kluttz should have all the enthusiasm of sood men, irrespective of party and every patriotic vote in the seventh district. Weneed from this on to take ona quickened interest in the campaign. Itis very apparent that the backing of Mr. Holton or Mr. Shuford either asks no questions about the ability or the fitness of theman. It -belongs to the better citizens in the seventh district to show that a majority isnot of that stripe. The easiest and most effective method of purifying the blood and invigorating the system is to take DeWitt’s Little Early Risers the “amous little pills for cleansing the liyer and bowels. W.F. Hall,Jr Ties, trons STEVENSON TO THE POPULISTS. The Letter of the Popslists Notify- ing Mr. Stevenson of His Nomina- tion for Vice President and His Reply. Lincoln Neb., Dispatch, 28th. In a letter received today at the Populist party national headquar- ters, Hon. Adlai E. Stevenson ac cepts the nomination for the vice presidency tendered him by that party early this month. The letter notifying Mr. Stevenson of his nomi- nation follows: Colfax, Iowa, Sept. 5. 1900. ‘“‘To Hon. A. E. Stevenson, Bloom- ington, Il: “DearSir: In behalf of the na- tional committee of the People’s party, the undersigned take pleasure in notifying you that you were, on the 27th ultimo, selected as the can- didate of said party for the office of Vice President of the United States, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the declination of the Hon. Chas. A. Towne, who was nominated at Sioux Falls. “The members of the People’s party in all sections realize that we have reached a crisis in which the very life of free institutions is in- volved—a crisis in which mere par- ty considerations are of secondary importance and should be laid aside until the peril is averted. ‘Acting upon this overshadowing conviction, our national convertion, which met at Sioux Falls, in proof of the unselfish character of the par- ty which it represented, and in ord- er to open the way of harmony among all classes of patriotic peo- ple, went outside of its own organi- zation for both of its nominees. This action met with hearty approv- al among our constituency every- where. ““And now, a vacancy having oc- curred in our ticket, we have in the same unselfish spirit selected you to fill that vacancy and ask that you accept the same. We know that you are nota Populist, but we are familiar with your career and the patriotic character of your unflinch- ins devotion to the principles of free government as taught by the fath- ers of the republic. Conscious that nothing but good to the public can result from your elevation to this high oftice, with sincere regard we have the honor to be. “Wery truly yours, “J. B. WEAVER, “J. H. Epson, “J. A. EpGErtor, “Committee of Notification.” Following is Mr. Stevenson’s re- sponse: ‘Bloomington, IIll., Sept. 25, 1900. “To Hon. J. B. Weaver, Hon. J. A. Edgerton and Hon. J. H. Edmiston, Committee of Notification: “Gentlemen: By your communi- cation of September 5, I am official- ly advised of my selection as the candidate of the Pecple’s party for the office of Vice President of the United States, to fill the vacancy upon your ticket occasioned by the the resignation of Hon. Chas. A. Towne. ‘I cannot too earnestly express my appreciation of this manifesta- tion of the confidence reposed in me by your committee and the great constituency you represent. Nor can I withhold the expression of my admiration for the generous action of Mr. Towne in his endeavors to secure the harmonious co-operation of all the supporters of Mr. Bryan in the pending presidential contest. “The action of the People’s party in selecting candidates out- side of its own organization is al- most without precedent in our po- litical history. The explanation is found in your own candid declara- tion: ‘‘The members of the People’s party in all sections realize that we have reached a crisis in which the very life of free institutions is involved—a crisis in which party considerations are of secondary im- portance aad should be laid.aside un- til the peril is averted.’ “Upon the important questions of finance, of domestic administration, and of reform in our methods of tax- ation, the platfurm of the People’s party gives no uncertainsoand. It is no lessemphatic inits demand for areturn tothe policy of honest and economical expenditures of,the pub- lic money, ofthe further demand for wise and efficient legislation looking to the suppression of trusts and cannot fail to challenge the at- tention of all thoughtful men. “In common, however, with the Silver Republican and the Demo- cratie parties, you recognize the important fact that all these are but questions of the hour. In the pres- ence of the overshadowing issue of imperialism, others are but as dust in the balance. It is not strange then, that there should now be con- cert of action between those who sincerely believe ‘that a crisis bas been reached in which mere party considerations are of secondary im portance.’ “Involved in the settlement of this great question are concequences of deep import to the American peo- ple. The supreme gravity of the is sue cannot be measured by words. As wastruly said by an eminent Republican Senator: “The ques- tion is greater than parties, greater than the prosperity and happiness of a single generation.’ “Tt is well even now to recall some of the recent events of our history. Before ‘breaking the peace of the world’ Congress, referring to Cuba, supplemented its declaration of war against Spain with the words: ‘The United States hereby disclaim any disposition to exercise sovereignity, jurisdiction or control over said is- land, except for the pacification thereof and asserts its determina- tion when that is accomplished to leave the government and control of the island to its people.’ “It was thissolemn declaration by the American Congress that justifi- ed the war at the bar of our own conscience and of that of the world. The pretense now that this disclaim- er upon our part applied only to Cuba and not to other Spanish de- peadencies is to palter with words in a double sense. Existing condi- tions abroad now challenge our seri- ous thought whether we will or no Spain has been conquered and the ‘pacification of Cuba’—the declared purpose of the war—secured. And yet we find ourselves still engaged in war; & war, too, against our form er ailies in our conflict. with Spain. It is & War against a people 38,000 miles distant and of whom, until re cent years, we had scarcely heard. It is anexpensive war, having al ready cost nearly 200,000,000 in money and thousands of valuable lives. The question to be answered by each American voter now andin November is: ‘‘Why this war? What is to be our justitication at the bar of history?” “All meré wordsand glorification ' of the tlag aside, the sad fact remaias | ‘that it is purely a war of conquest; | |g war of subjugation against a peo-, | ple who as has been eloquently said, | \‘in their struggle for independence | have interposed the declaration of| Jefferson as a shield against the at- tacks of his own countrymen.’ ‘Sixty thousand soldiers are now in the Philippine Islands. How much greater will be the sacrifice of treasure and human life before the conquest is completed no man cap know. And when completed, what next ? How are these islands to be held and governed ? Does any sane man doubt that it can only be by force and by the power of the army and of the navy? And this not for a day or a year, but for all time. All this implies the exercise of power unknown to the constitution. It is in very truth viven outside the con- stitution. It means the adoption by the American republic of the colon- ial methods of European monarchies. It means the right to hold alien peo- ples assubjects. It enthrones force as the controlling agency in goyern- ment. Ina word, it foreshadows the empire. More than this, follow- ing close in the wake of imperialism, as the night the day, comes the im- mense standing army. The dread arm of militarism is to be laid bare in the new world, as it is in the old. The strong arm of power is to be sustituted for the peaceful agencies, which for more than a century have brought contentment and happiness to allour people. Existing condi- tions in continental Europe—entail- ing taxation and misery to the verge of human endurance, illustrate by a sad objectlesson the inevitable re- sult of large standing armies in time of peace. “Conditions now existing in the Philippine Islands, for waich we are, in a2 measure, responsible, im- pose new duties upon us. Those people are entitled to our protection against the cupidity and aggressive spirit of other nations. And this not to the end of subjugation upon our part, but to that of the full en- joyment by them of liberty and the ultimate establishment of stable government fashioned by their own hands. ‘Imperialism, ‘the republic or the empire,’ is indeed the overshadow- ing issue with which we are con- fronted in the pending struggle for political supremacy. Its determi- nation 1s to be by the American peo- ple through the peaceful instrumen- tality of the ballot. Meanwhile its discussion will continue at the fire- sideand on the hustings with an earnestness rarely equalled in our history. It was Burke who said: ‘I love clamor when there is an abuse. The alarm bell disturbs the inhabi- tants, but it saves them from being burned in their beds.’ ‘‘Again thanking the committee and those they represent, I accept the nomination so generously ten- dered me. Should your action be ratified by the people at the polls, it will be my earnest endeavor to dis- charge with fidelity the duties of the great office. ‘“‘T have the bonor to remain, ‘Yours very truly, “ADLIE E. STEVENSON.” a a Beverage Lets The Cat Out of The Bag. Raleigh News and Observer. A synopsis of the speech of Sena- tor Beveridge before the Marquette club of Chicago last night is printed in another column. It is remarkable for its candor and lack of diplomacy. McKinley and Hanna, and _ their heelers, have been declaring that there is no such thing as imperial- ism; that the imperialistic policy with which they are credited isa bogie, at which no sensible man will take fright. Senator Beveridge, however, throws aside all subterfuge. He takes for his text the cry, ‘‘West- ward the Starof Empire Takes its Way,’ and cutlines for his party a policy more imperialistic that even the mighty Cwsar dared dream. The speech is brutally frank. Uu- like his more discreet masters, Mr. Beveridge says what he thinks and tells what he knows: Scoring Tal- leyrand’s dictum that the proper use of language is to conceal thought, he boldly declares that his party policy is one of conquest and colonization. In so many words he defends the im- perialistic policy. The Indiana Senator believes the acquisitiou of the Philippines a good business speculation and he says so. He considers the ‘‘mercantile ad- vantages’’ to be obtained by holding them the chief if not the only reason why they should be held. Because it wil! pay American la- bor and capital to develop Philip- pine resources under American con- trol, heisopposed to withdrawing the American army from Philip- pine soil. To accomplish this he declares his willingness to see the army and navy increased to European proportions. In fact, he declares that a failure to pursue tthis policy would be to oppose Destiny and the evident will of the Almighty. Senator Beveridge goes further. He dreams bright dreams and sees glorious visions. He would hold all we now have and hustle for more. He would plant colonies where colo- nies will thrive; and where the Cau- easian cannot live he mustrule. He sees the oceans wedded by an Isth- mian canal and our dominions ex- tended until they girdle the earth. He argues that it will pay. This is all very fine, from an ora- torical standpoint, but it will carry woe to Republican hearts. and Sena- tor Beveridge will very likely not do much more speaking in this cam- paign. To suit Hannaand Republi- can campaign policies Senator Bev- eridge should have declared that there was no thought of profit in acquiring the Philippines, no chance of profit in their retention and that the sole object of the country in se- curing them was to make the Filipi- nos rich and happy. If he had done this his speech would have won Re- publican approval and applause. Wander no circumstances should he have used so unfortunate and sug- gestive a quotation as ‘‘Westward the Star of Empire Takes its Way.”’ It is all most unfortunate—for the Republicans—a blunder that cannot easily be forgiven and one that should never have been made. In his recent declaration that there are no trusts in this country, Mr. Hanna indicates very plainly the fatal defect in such speeches as that made last night by Senator Beveridge. ‘After suffering from piles for fifteen years Iwas cured by using ; two boxes of DeWitt’s Witch Hazel |Salye,”’ writes W.

I shall publish this letter in my home pa- per and I respectfully and earnest- ly request all Democratic papers to give it to their readers. I am so confident they will do me this favor. no matter whom they prefer, that I beg to thank them in advance. On the 4th of March, 1901, some Democrat will take his seat as the Senator from North Carolina, in the greatest deliberative body on earth. Who that man shall be is for you to say. It is the first time in the his- tory of our party, in this State, when you have had the opportunity of determining such a question by a direct vote, at a primary election, held for that purpose. For one I believe in this method of indicating our party’s choice for Senator; and I trust this primary,in all its phases from start to finish, will be conduct- ed in a manner so fair and honora. bleas to be free from complaint and above criticism; and that the system will commend itself to all fair-minded Democrats who believe in the rule of the people. I feel a special interest in the success of this system because I believe I was the first in the State to publicly ad- vocate it. Since then it has grown in popular fayor, till at the last State convention of our party, it was adopted and ordered to be held. I therefore beg modestly to say that I would be glad to be the first Sena- tor chosen by this method and I hereby announce myself a candidate for that high honor. In making this announcement | am aware thatI am aspiring to a high and responsible position. A Senator is not only charged with the duty of taking part in the dis- cussions and determination of great questions of national importance, but he is a part of the treaty making power, and upon his action may de- pend important events in our for- eign relations. There are but few fields which open up so great op- portunities for labor, usefulness and honor as the Senate of the United States. I trust I properly appre- viate the digaity and the importance of the position I am seeking. Iam alsoaware that it has been the policy of our State to choose her most experienced and best equipped men for this high position and these grave duties. The fact that these men had already held high offices was not a hindrance but a help to their selection. From this classof her distinguished citizens our State has chosen men who be- came vreat Senators and whose names we love to revere, and whose services are a part of our country’s history. While I cannot hope to reach the eminence held by them I shall constantly endeavor, if chosen, to attain a position creditable to myself and honorable to my State. And may I not point to my brief service in the Senate as an earnest of my constant effort to serve my Stateand her people faithfully and well. I sometimes hear it said that I havealready had the party’s sup- port, and the people’s honors to a remarkable degree. and that I ought to retire to private life. I acknowl- edve with feelings of the profound- est gratitude, that I have been yreatly honored, but I affirm that I have tried to be true and faithful to the public interests in every trust that has been confided tome. While the fact that I have held these po- sitions is being urged as a reason why I have bad all I deserve, may it not be said in my behalf that the training and experience I gained in them have only the better qualified me to discharge the yrave duties which devolve upon a Senator. I also hear it said that this is the day of the young Democracy. I do not uncerstand by this that the day bas come, in the history of our par- ty, when the door of honorable re- ward is to be closed to those who have been faithful and true in storm and in sunshine and who have fought its battles in the days of its adversi- ty and defeat as wellas in the days ofits prosperity and victory. While the Democratic party always has and always will fittingly reward its young men, it never has and never will, in my judgment, closeits doors to its faithful veterans. The young worker of today will be the veteran of tomorrow and the party will, in the plentitude of its opportunities. do justice to both and fittingly re- ward each. If, therefore. I have ceased to belong to the young {Dem- ocracy and have become one of the party's veterans, I co not believe that a generous and just people will allow me to be cast aside on that ac- count. If this coveted prize is to be the reward of party service then I may, I believe, ask to be allowed to enter the race. For more than a third of a century I have been in the thick- est of our party’s battles, and the several campaigns from 185 to 1900 will testify to the fact that I have worked as hard for party success when I was not a candidate as when Iwas. IndeedI have only twice been the nominee of the party in the State at large for office, once in ‘76 when I was a candidate for Lieu- tenant Governor and in ’80 I was a candidate for Govxerner, but there has not been a campaign since ‘65 in which I did not take an active part, and do my full share of the work, except the campaigns of 'S0 and ’S8, when I was out of the coun- try. But, if the consideration of party service is to be limited to the last two campaigns then I believe I can make a xespectable showing without detracting from the services of others. In these two campaigns all did their duty, as it was giveu to them, from our humble and faith- ful chairman down to the township worker—from the great dailies to the teeming weeklies—and no one man has a monopoly of the victory, our party won in its heroic and de- termined effort to establish and maintain good government in North Carolina. I have not and shall not have one word tosay against the worthy gen- tlemen who are contesting for this high honor. . They -have wrought well for their party and their State; and they deserve well of both. They have a right to be candidates if they ask the use of its columns fora word | tatives. While I would be glad to be chosen Senator, it is not the only thing that gives me concern. I be lieve that the triumph of our party in November is essential tu welfare of our country; and that the election of Bryan and Stevenson will mean the breaking of the tight- setting free industries and individ- uals now endangered by them; and the bringiag back the administra- tion of our government to the safe moorings pointed out by Washing- ton and Jefferson. I have no organization and I sha!! not try to affect one. I shall send printed tickets to our county chair- men and request them to cause these tickets to be placed, through their various committees, as other tickets are at the various precincts conven- ient to the voters on the day of the primary. This Iam sure our coun ty chairmen and county and town- ship committees will cheerfully do, without any regard to their person- al preferences; and I beg to tender them my thanks for this service. Having done this the matter so far as I am concerned is with the Dem- ocratic voters. It is for them to sav who shall be Senator. While I shall hold in grateful remembrance those who may say a kind word for me or take any interest,in any way, in my candidacy, I shail cherish no ill will toward those who may pre- fer another. I am sincerely your obedient ser vant. Tuos. J. Jarvis. are - a ee - - Lo Intimidate Salesmen. Chicago Dispatch, 27th. Mark Hanna, with the aid of the teusts, is using an ingenious method of securing the votes of the commer- cial travelers. Through the trusts the word is being passed out that only the re-election of McKinley will mean ‘“‘jobs."’ Salesmen in every section of the United States are re- ceiving letters bearing the names of the trusts controlling their re spective fields of trade. They are asked to accept positions ‘subject to the election of McKinley.” Here is a part of one of the letters sent out by the Montclair Rubber Company, of New York City, a branch of the Rubber Trust, to a Chicavo traveling man: ‘Dear Sir: We would like to have you consider the following condi- tional proposition, subject to the election of McKinley and other trade conditions. ‘‘We wish to secure a number of ood salesmen to sell our goods ex- clusively during November, Decem- ber, January, February and March. or as. much of that time as possible. and also during the entire year of 1901, if mutually satisfactory. “The idea is if McKinley is electcd to start our salesmen the following Monday, November 12, and push hard for trade as long as any can be found to pay for the expense and effort. Wedo not know if you are situated so that you can travel ex- clusively with our goods during the months mentioned, but should like to hear from you.”’ The letters are being sent broad- cast by the trusts. We know, said Secretary Nelson, of the Democratic Executive Com- mittee, ‘‘that a number of local bus- iness houses have placed large or- ders with manufactucing companies to be filled‘if McKinley is elected.’ ”’ The head of one of these houses was recently asked why the order was made conditional, as goods would be needed no matter what the outcome of the election may be. “Oh,’"* he admitted, ‘‘that’s for the manufacturer to show to his em- ployes.’”’ _ > ope or Democrats Gaining and Republicans Losing Contidence in New York. Wn. E. Curtis’ New York Correspondence in Chicago Record, Both political parties are waking up, but the Democrats thus far are showing more activity than the Re- publicans. Mr. Hanna is expected to arrive to-morrow morning at 10, and perhaps he may be able to puta little more ginger into the Republi- can end of the campaign, as he is understood to have done in Chicago and other parts of the West. The Democrats are gaining confidence in Bryan's election. I do not mean the gentlemen at headquarters, who furnish “hot air’? without cost or limit and assure you in whispers that they have received reliable con- fidential reports from everywhere that everybody is going to support Bryan and that he will have more votes than he wants, but I refer to the outside man who doesn’t know muchabout it, but has opinions bas- edupon what he hears from his friends in different parts of the country. The Republicans are los- ing confidenze, too. They are no loager taking it for granted that McKinley is invincible and scofting at those who intimate that heis not. The betting is running toward Bry- an also, and that is the best barom- eter ofa public sentiment. Two months ago the McKinley rooters were offering odds of 4 and5 tol. When Brydn abandoned the silver issue the betting was 3 to 1 and ther 5 to 2, 2} to l,and the odds have kept getting smaller with eve- ry large bet until now the McKin- ley men will give no better than 2 tol.

In the Senatorial contest, Mr. Simmons says that if the election were held today, he would receive 50,000 majority. General Carr is confident of his election. Col, A. M. Waddell states that he is in the fight to the finish. The Hon. Thos. J. Jarvis made a clean, clear-cut an- nouncement. asking his friends to support him. But Mr. Simmons is in the lead, and the sentiment in this, Coddle Creek township,is near- ly a unit for him. All others have many admirers, but Mr. Simmons will poll the vote. i Census of Arkonsas Washington Dispatch, sth. The Census Bureau today publish- ed the returns for the State of Ar- kansas. The population of the State of Arkansas in 1900 is 1,311,564, as against 1,128,179 in 1890, represent- ing an increase since 1890 of 183,385, or 16.25 per cent. The rate of increase is only about two-fifths of that for the decade from ISSv to 1890, when it was 40.58 per cent. and less than one-fourth of that of the decade from ISTU0_ to 1880 when it was 65.63 per cent. From 1860 to 1870 there wes an increase of only 11.26 per cent., but prior to 1860 the population more than doub- led itself during each decade, and forthe decade from 1830 to 1840 showed an increase of 22109 per cent. eo The Tide for Simmons, Fayetteville Observer, In the senatorial contest, the tide seems turning now overwhelming to Mr.Simmons. People are realizing more and more that votes for other than Simmons or Carr are throw away. With the field thus narrow- ed, there can be no question, it seems tous, that the Democratic duty points to the Democratic leader and to him as the one of the candidates who has most completely aligned himself with the Bryavites. = The Truth—Every Word True.

They would rejoice over his defeat. Whatever pleases them politically makes us mad, therefore we are dis- posed todo all we can to bring about the election of the man they hate—the peerless Simmons, who will make the ideal Senator. se More Truth. two men boarded the train at the Union Pacific transfer and climbed over the tender just as the train was crossing Vosquito creek bridge. Engineer Donnelly and Frank Holman, fireman, who werein charge of the engine, were ordered to slow up @8 soon as the train had crossed the Dridge One of the robbers, the man that was killed, kept the engine crew under control at the point of bis revoiver while bis companion, disconnected the baggage and mail cars, leaving the remainder of the train comprised of day coach and sleepers, standing on the main line. The engineer, under orders from the robbers, pulled the baggayve and mail car some distance from the detached cars and then he was order- ed tostop. The robbers here ap- proached the express car and order- ed Messenger Baxter to open tbe door. Herefused. The engineer was ordered to dismount, and at the peint ot a pistol compelled to at- tach a stick ofdynamite to the door of the express car and blow it open. Baxter escaped from a door onthe Opposite sideof the car, carrying his gun with him. As soon as the door was opened, one of the robbers entered the car whiie his companion marched the engineer and fireman back to the engine. Baxter crept aroundin front of the engine and seeing the robber keeping guard ov er the enyine crew, tired one shot and kilied him instantly. As soon as the sbet was heard the robber in the car jumped to the ground and fled through acorn field. The dead manwas pieked up, placed or board and thw train was backed, but nothing was found on the body by which it could be identified. The highwayman was dressed in a neat suit of black clothes, over which overalls and jumpers had _ been drawn. In his pockets were found about $25 and a watch and chain. Conductor William McGrew, who was in charge of the train, thinks the dead man is one George, of St. Joseph. Both men were masked and both wore overalls and jumpers. The door of the express car was badly shattered by the explosion of dynamite. The robber inside the car was pre- paring to blow open the safe at the ‘ime his companion was killed. He ceased operations at once and no dainage was done to the car, nor was anything taken. After putting on a new express car and transfering tbe freight, the train proceeded to Nansas City. erand taller man than the dead man, height, se teen RU Alaska's Gold Ficlds. Wastington Dispatch, sth, Cable Whitehead, Assayer of the Mint, and .t present acting as ex pert agent of the Mint Bureau at Nome City, Alaska, in a report dat- ed September 3, to Geo. E. Roberts, Directer of the Mint, says that Nome beach kas been worsed gut practical ly ap bkatw some of &bq sluices have not paid expenses. The entire beach product for the year is esti- mated at from $250,000 to $300,000. Much of the gold dust in circulation in Nome, Mr. Whitehead says, comes from Dawson. Anvil Creek, which has been the greatest producer up to this time, and which gives promise of yielding good returns for some time to come, has produced this year North Carolina. There are eviden- ces that the action of the State com- mittee in giving a Bryan turn to the canvass of the senatorial aspir- ants, by setting up a balance to the McKinley twist designed for it by the anti-Bryan interpreter of the State platform, is bearing fruit. Th. effect of this new alignment will be felt more and more as the campalgn progresses, and will de- velop the paramountcy of national! issues. The result will be to help Bryan and at the same time to sim plify the senatorial question in the mirds of these who have been look- ing at it through a glass darkly. Outside of this State the whole country is ablaze with enthusiasm on the part of the Democrats. The Republican managers are making great exertions to whip the apathet- ic masses of their party into activi- ty, but, s> far, with indifferent suc- cess. Ibe Democrats are united as they have not been in many years; they are aggressive in the highest degree, and their managers are con ducting a campaign of unexampled skill, thoroughness and determina- tion in New York, New Jersey, Con necticnt, Maryland, West Virginia, Illinois, Ohio and Indiana, while Mr. Bryan’s tours in the further West have developed a spirit of enthusi asm in the masses unknown since the war of 1561-65. Presently be will come to the East, and the effect will no doubt be phenomenal, Back of all this exertion by the Democratic leaders in the field and at the lucal headquarters is Chaur- man Jones’ national organization at Chicago. This is said by persons conversant with such matters to surpass anything of the kind hither- to known. <A sergeant-at-arms and eight assistants are required to act as dulfers between the outside pub- lic and the chairman and his chiefs of staif and their more than two hundred clerks. Promptly at half past seven the strong man from Ar- kansas, the ablest chairman the par- ty has ever known, takes his seat at his desk, and he is said to work for twelve and fourteen hours each day. His conduct of the campaign of 1896 was a marvei of skill and fit looks as if he would surpass himself in this. The true Democrat will now understand, by the way, why the McKinleyites in the Democratic party were so anxiaus to replace him with a less resourceful Jeader. Taking a view of the whoie field, and bearing in mind the narrow margin by which McKinley was elected in 1896—out of a vote of six hundred thousand plurality, and votes distributed in the close States would have defeated him in the electoral college—we are inclined to think that a “‘landslide”’ for Bry- an is not improbable. Both Mr. Bryan and Chairman Jones are con- fident of success. ee The Too! of Politicians. Wilmington Stax Mr. Andrew €arnegie who, like Senator Hoar, ex-Senator Edmunds, and other noted Republicans, agrees with Wm J. Bryan in his opposi- tion to imperialism, will vote for McKinley, for probably the same reascn that Hoar and Edmunds will, because he doesn’t want to see the Republican party laid out. He is under too many obligations to it, and doubtless looks to it for contin- ued favors.

It will be well for Demo- crats to watch these Republicans Charlotte, Observer, 4th. A Charlotte Republican politician met a Democratic friend on the street yesterday and between the two the following conversation rel- ative to the senatorial contest took place: The Republicas—‘‘Yes, I havea preference in this senatorial busi- ness, but I can’t vote. If I could vote your man would get my ballot, but of course we Republicans are not “in it’’ when it comes to voting for aman for United States Sena- or. The Democrat—“‘If you will sup- port So and-So I'll fix it so that you can vote. You voted against the amendment in August and do not intend to vote for Bryan in Novem- ber. Now instead of doing that, you vote for Bryan in November, which season,’’ says Mr. Whitehead, ‘‘Top- kuk, located on the beach, 60 miles east of here, easily takes the lead.

Some of these deposits are fabulous- ly rich, nothing richer having been found in the Klondike, I am _ told, than one of the claims along the Nick Kala gluch. The extent of these deposits. however, has not een proven and another season will be necessary to Gemonstrate their value. “My estimate of the production uptothis time is $1,500,000, with an article discussing Bryan and McKinley, in which he makes the following reference to the latter: “Had he followed his individual judgment the result would bave been happy, Since he has shown a remark- able insight and faculty for eras» ed by his instructions to the Peace Commissioners; he was right in re- gard to Porto Rica, but he allowed himself to be overborne by the par- pered or constrained he has shown the highest statesmanship.’”’ This 1s praise that condemns. It Kinley’s intentions are good, and right, but that he has not the moral courage nor the independence to do right when party associates urge him to go against his own judgment and sense of right.

W. c ba pposing ee aes offer the best terms. sively that there is danger of unfair- sess. fraud and stealing in the elec- tion, and to prevent it he calls pub- lic attention to the reat crime. The utterances of General Carr meets the approvai of Butler and are evidently read by him with pleasure. They also endanger the chances of every candidate for Con- gress, as in the event of a contest after their election the statement by a2 candidate for the United States Senate that he fears fraud at the hands of men of his own party, will be a strong argument to be used by the opponents of Democracy against the integrity of those who will hold the elections, The statement that he bas no*ma- chine’ and that if he can have a “free ballot and a fair count’ he will be elected suggests that be be- lieves that there is a ‘‘machine’’ and that it will defraud him. Ifso who constitute the machine against whom this charge is made? It must be the members of the State Executive Committee, the members of the different County Executive Committees, the members of the different precinct Executive Com- mittees in the State, members of the different County Board of Election and the registrars and poll holders and other Democratic workers. These men have served their par- ty and State without reward and frequently at great personal sacri- fice. They do not care for the charges of their political enemies, but they will resent them coming froma Democrat who aspires to leadership in the party. A Preetner COMMITTEEMAN. Oct. Ist, 1900. : —_ The “Paramount” Issue. Wilmington Star, Hon. Mark Hanna says imperial- ism isatrumped up issue, sprung by the Democrats for campaign pur- poses only. The Cleveland Leader, the leading Republican paper in tianna’s home city, echoes Mr. Hanna in this and says: “Ifthe people will stop to think that but forthe persistence of the Uryanites there would have been no war, and but for the urgent appeals of Brvan to Democratic Senators the treaty ceding the Philippiues to the United States would not have been ratified, they will not find it difficult to fix the responsibility for ‘imperialism’ if it 1s pessible to con- jure up anything of the sort out of the present foreign policy of the covernment.”” Commenting upon this the Wash- ington Post, an independent paper and an advocate of expansion, says: “It was not Bryan or the Demo- crats who created that issue, But for the Republicans Mr. Bryan and his supporters would be simply an- ti-expansionists, so far as relates to the Philippines. But for that sud- den, inexplicable and totaily uacall- ed far reversal of Republican policy, that turning down of ‘our plain duty,’ Mr. Bryan and his adherents could not have substituted ‘anti-im- perialism’ for ‘anti-expansion.’ Had the policy which the President,after eighteen months of investigation, assisted by commissions and expert agents, recommended to Congress been adopted, Mr. Bryan could not have hada shadow of justification for acrusade against an expansion which he had advocated and which it is reasonable to assume he might have prevented. For all that there is in and all that may result from the issue of ‘Imperialism,’ the lead- ers of the Republican party are re- sponsible. They had plain sailing over a clear course until they began a bitter contlictin their own party, and, as a result,endowed the Democ- racy with ‘the paramount issue’ and simultaneously with seores of Re- publican speeches and interviews and thousands of Republican edito- rials sustaining the Democratic side of that issue. “Such being the case, it seems to us that it would be better policy for Republican organs and spell- binders to face the issue squarely than to misrepresent the facts relat- ing toits origin. Since we are in the Philippines to stay, no matter what may be the outcome of the campaign, it ought to be an agree- able task for those organs and ora- tors to defend their party's policy as to the future of those islands.’ ~ The Republican supporters of the policy of forcible expansion have neither the courage of their convic- tions nor the honesty to avow them. As far as we can recall, there are but two representative grabbers who have-freely and frankly express- ed their sentiments. One is Sena- tor Carter, of Montana, who con- fessed toa mercenary motive and declared that if they found that holding the islands would Day they would hold them: if not, they vould let them go; and Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, who boldly adyocated holding the islands by force as colonies, takine Great Brit- ian as our model. ‘lhe Republican leaders liked this speech so much when it was delivered that they had about aquarter of a million copies printed for circulation in the cam- paign, but when they saw the popu- lar drift against imperialism they had that pile of speeches destroyed. Now they,like the cowards they are, are asserting that the Democrats in- vented and are responsible for this issue. ee nT “After suffering from piles for fifteen vears I was cured by using two boxes of DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Sealye,”’ writes W. J. Baxter, North Brook, N.C. It heals everything. Beware of counterfeits. W. Hall,Jr. Bryan and Steveason and Crawford were the men for whom he urged his audience to work and vote. And the audience present was a large and thoroughly representa- tiveone. It was ample proof that the people of Asheville honor Mr. Simmons for his great service to the State, and indeed love him for the enemies he has made. a The Millionaire Committee.

Carlisle who wrote the scandalous sugar trust schedules for the tariff bill, for which the Democratic party was beld respon- sible, and aided in forcing them through, thereby making his party seem to stultify itself? Is this the same John G.

The man or com- mittee who can secure the bigvest contributionsis the most popular and the most influential. Two-thirds of the work done by Chairman Hanna, it has serted and not denied, consists in wringing moncy from corporations. The men who are managing the campaign are immensely rich. All of the rich Republicans have much the same interests. What threatens the millions of one threat- ens the millions of all. They flock together for mutual protection; they are always found in close touch with each other. The National Republican Execu- tive Committee consists of eleven men, ofeight of the eleven. The total personal wealth of these cight men is #41,000,000, - —_ --e- - The Plain Truth Henderson Gold Leaf. One of the things said of Mr. Sim mons, for the purpose of discredit- ing him in his candidacy for the United States Senatorship, is that he is more of a politician than a statesman. Then his record as State chairman is pointed to and while he is given credit for success three times achieved in that posi- tion, according to their logic if this should not be aryrued against him it should not count in his jfavor. The Windsor Ledger thus pays its re- spects to this class: he men who carried this elec- tion, the men who wore red shirts, the mea who construed tke election law stringently, the mon who heid the polls, the men who planned the Oampaign, all these Democrats, are the peers of any man who complains and good enough to be given the best that the party which they put in power has to give. “If there is anything the peop‘e shun and suspect it is the political purist—too good to help carry the election but just good erough to vet oftice after the election is carried.” > P<. —— Cost of Imperialism. Atlanta Constitution. When against the benefits of im- perialism there is placed the cost, it is doubtful if, under the most favor- able circumstances, it has ever paid. Professor Goldwin Smith, the British economist, warns the Amer- ican people against the dangers of imperialism and plutocracy, and es- pecially against partnership with England in the lust of empire and in the vreed of gain which is Supposed tocome through an imperialistic policy. Personally he does not be lieve that England has ever gor back the cost of her colonies, not even in the case of India, if we count all the expense she has incurred ard stillincurs on its account. None the less is she deceived by the gla mour of foreign conquest and pos- session, and now she would like to have the United States fora mora! backer, imitator and ally in that kind of work. The professor's views are thus epitomized: Professor Smith finds an element in American society willing to join the tories of England in the poliey of external aggression. It consists of the multi-millionaires ‘*whose so- cial center is shifting more and mor from the United States to monarch- ical and aristocratic Engiand, where they can take hold of the mantle ef high society, vet more homage and subserviency for their wealth,”’ ete. In other words, a social influence lures an influential section of our public life to the policy of foreign empire and conquest, partly in imi - tation of England, partly in emula- tion of her supposed gains in foreign adventure, and partly in the way of gratitude for her diplomatic sup port in our war with Spain. The glamour of Conquest has guilded many a people to destruc- tion, and it willbe fortunate if the United States can be saved from the pitfall ahead. J. Q. Hood, Justice of the Peace.

They have {discerned in Mr. McKinley the tig- |urehead of a degraded and degrad- ing political system nurtured by ac- cumulated wealth and lawless power, haltiag at nothing to secure tbe fruits of insatiable greed; imperiling the high ideals of a free government and subjecting Republican institu- tions to the taint of imperialism. They have seen in Mr. Bryan the man of inflexible convictions of right thinking, of unapproachable integ- rity, of luminous apprebension of the real interests of the people, of firm purpose to insist that those in- terests shall be foremost in the ad- ministration of government. There is the picture. There are the men: The Democratic candidate for President of the United States is William Jennings Bryan, the strong man of the people, the supporter of the Constitution. The Republican candidate is William McKin‘ey. the weak and vagillating creature of the money power, the servant of over- mastering trusts, the n:mbitious seeker after an imperial power, sternly forbidden by the organic law which he has flagrantly violated. —————a +e <a —- Mr. Bryan Stamps Out a Lie Portage, Wis,. Dispatch, sth. W. J. Bryan's attention was to- day called tothe statement alleged to have been made by Mr. Kingman, that he received $150,000 for tnsist- ing upon the silver plank of the Kansas City platform, and he said: “It is hardly worth while to deny the charge of a man who hides be- hind a woman whose name he will not vive, but in order thar the most unscrupulous Republicans may have no reason for repeating the charge, T will say that it is absolutely false in every particular. “No one ever offered, promised or gave me that sum or any other sum for urging that plank or any other plank in the Kansas City platform. orany other platform. I knew noth- ing of Mr. Kingman, but it is said that he is a cousin of Senator Cul- lom and I knowsomething of Sena- tor Cullom. The Senator ought to know whetherhis cousin is trust- worthy or not, and if the Senator will state over his own signature that he believes what his cousin says and is willing to represent him in an investigation of the cvarge, I will make him a propositien which will give him an opportunity to produce his evidence. ”’ - _—> ¢ <> o <a - What is Militarism? New York World. The Republicans are very anxious to kuow what is militarism with which McKinleyism has threatened the country. They are amused by what they consider the bogy raised by the Democratic and anti-impe- rialistic imagination. Militarism is this: In 1898 the regular army consisted of 25,000 men. It now consists of 65,000, and there are 35,000 volunteers vesides, making 100,000 in ali. McKinleyism is responsible for this increase in the numbers of the army. The ar- my used to cost about $23.000,000 2 year. It is now costing $135 900,000, Bismark’s Iron Nerve. Was the result of his splendid health.

The man who spent his little estate free- lyin figbting the battles of the white people of his State? Sim- mons asa United States Senator would retlect great credit on North Carolina. ~He stands in ability the peer, certainly, of his competitors. He is being fought by Butler and Pritchard and their allies with all their might. They know a Demo- crat will be elected, and their cry is: O, Lord! any one but Simmons. This should tell every Democrat and every lover of his State how to vote Only a short time ago Butler and Pritchard and their followers were going around the State shouting: ‘*‘He who my boots displace Shall meet Bombastes face to face.” The white people of the State un der the leadership of Simmons met them ‘‘face to face’’ in August last, and sounded the tocsin of their po- litical funeral. White people of North Carolina, honor Simmons. He certainly bas honored you. He will honor you again, if you will give him a chance. B. B. WINBORNE, Nurfreesboro, N. C. — os No Postponement forthe Primary. Raleigh News and Observer. We published a few days azo a suggestion from Judge Avery. which is today seconded by Mr. J. B. Stokes that the Senatorial primary be postponed until after the Nuvem- ber election. These two gentlemen are Democrats of Democrats whose advice is worthy of serious consid- eration. It is with regret that we feel constrained to take any view not in harmony with the view they have presented with force. In our judgment the Senatorial primary should not be postponed for two reasons: 1. There is no authority for post- ponement. The State convention ordered it to be held on a day cer- tain-—the day of the National con- vention. There is no power in the party that can dispense with the primary, though some have advoca- ted that course, or postpone the time when it shall be held as sug- wested by Judge Avery. The State committee was given no power ex- cept to provide regulations for hold- ing the printary. It bas met and adopted rules and regulations, and the various county committees have appointed-poli holders in aeeord- ance with the action of the comiit- tee. 2, The primary cught to be held on the same day as the natioval election. It will prove a mighty factor in bringing out the full Dem- ocratic vote in November, It will possibly hurt alittle here or there, and the bitter conflict will arouse some antagonisms, but neither of these things will keep men from the polls, but on the other hand will in- sure active interest to secure a full vote. Nobody can vote in the pri- mary without coming to the polls. They will vote for Bryan and Steven- son and the Democratic candidate for Congress if they vote for Sena- tor. The primary puts every par- tisan of every Senatorial aspirant to work therefore for the Democrat- ic ticket, There is only one danger in North Carolina to the Democratic party this year, and that is that the vote will be very light. Upon a full vote Bryan will get from 30,- 000 to 50,000 majority. Ifthe vote should be light, he might lose the State. The great thing the Demo- crats have to do, therefore, is to bring out the votes. When there is such universal confidence that Bry- an will carry the State, there is some danger that many voters will stay at home on election day solely because they believe it unnecessary to vote. The Senatorial primary, with all its defects, steps in and sends out all the friends of all Senatorial aspirants to get the vot- ers to the polis. It will prove an etfective agency for getting out the vote, and if there isa full vote, the State is safe by a big majority. —S eS A Disgravete the Office. Raleigh Post. The indictment of the Winston, Morganton, and other registrars by the grand jury at Greensboro yes- terday is not conclusive by any means that these officers are guilty of violating the law.

Kight [talians employed on tke night shift of the Calvin Hardee & Company colliery, at Latimer, were attacked in the public road leading from that place to Hollywood, early this morning by twenty-five women who had marched from Milresville The women were mostly Hun sarians and Italians They ieft Milnesville at + o'clock. marched through Latti- mer, two miles distant, and waited to attack the men working in the Lattimer mine as they passed along the rozd which leads to their homes at Hollywood, A few of the women were armed with clubs, but most of them carried stones of all sizes in their aprons. The first non-striking mine-workers to leave the colliery were the little band of eight italians. They saw the woinen on the road ahead of them and suspecting an attack, crossed the field in an endeavor to avoid them. The women. however, were on the alert and they also crossed the field and, overtaking the men, hurled showers of stones at them. The workmen did not at- tempt to defend themselves. but ran away and were soon out of reach of the fury of the excited women, One man received a severe cut on the head, while several of the others were struck by pieces of rock but were not injured. The women re- turned to their homes satisfied with their demonstration. a ae A Sample McKinley Lie. ews and Observer. Raleigh > The Asheville Gazette keeps up its record for printing what is not true. In the State election it was the central lie factory for the Re- publican party. It keeps up the samme business in the national elee- tion atthe oid stand. A few days days ago it printed this so-called ““special”’ from Greensboro: “A big piano concern here is sell- ing -voods with the promise that they will not be delivered it McWNin- ley is elected. Insurance com- panies here are writing policies up- on the same condition.” The Greensboro Telegram says that this statement ‘‘would be very amusing were it not so palpably false.’ It sent a reporter to inter- view the insurance men and piano men, though it knew ‘the business concerns of this city are not so shaky as that,’’ and adds: “Not one of them knew anything of the dispatch to the Asheville pa- per until their attention was called to it, when it was promptly and _ ve- hemently denied. A piano dealer said: ‘So far as my business is con cerned, I donot know as it makes any difference who is elected. | shall continue to sell pianos and or- gans whether McNinley or Bryan may be President. Certainly I never4 thought of selling an instrument with the understanding that the trade should be null and void in the event of the election of McKinlay,’ An insurance man made practically the same statement and added that he was unable to understand how any newspaper correspondent could be guilty of so wilfula perversion cf the truth.” *Working The Negro Vote. Wilmington Star. It doesn’t require a very keen vis- ion to see through the game behind that negro meeting iu Cooper Insti- tute, New York, Wednesday nicht. It wasn'tso much a negro meeting asa meeting todothe work of the white bosses who use the negroes, a fact which is plainly shown by the resolutions adopted and by the large number of white men who were present. They have been playing the ne- groes so Jong that the old issues with them had become stale so they concluded totry a new one, and launched negro disfranchisement as the ‘‘paramount’’ issue This adds another paramount, to the assort- ment of paramounts that had _pre- viously been discovered or invented. In view of the fact that there was much defection reported among the negroes and indications that a good many of them would vote for Bryan the Republican bosses found it necessary to stir them up, and hence this *‘paramount’’ issue and these warm resolutions, which are simply intended to hold the negro voters in line for MecWinley. who will need their votes very much in New York and in other debatable States where the negro vote is a fac- tor. After the election the white bosses weo inspired these resclu- tions will forget all about them and the ‘‘paramount”’ issue, for if Me- Kinley is elected they will conclude that the negro vote isn't such a very about it, and if Bryan 1s elected the | “paramount’’ issue will interest them io more and these resolutions wil! never be heard of again.

Se The Statesyillo Tobacco Board of Trade and Tobacco Manufactur- ers Issue 2 Letter to Tobacco Gzovrers. fhe Tobacco Board of Trade and Tobacco Manufacturers of States ville have issued the following letter to tobacco growers which shows the demand here for leafand the conse- quent bigher prices that tobacco will bring on our market: Dear Str: The tobacco interests of Statesville have grown to such an extent that it is necessary to advise vou that the manufacturers and leaf dealers are ina position to handle all the tobacco that you can bring to our market. The manufacturers have had a good year, finding such demand for their product that they will increase their output this year. Consequently they are ready with sufficient buyers and ample ware- house facilities to purchase and take eare ofall the tobacco you can bring. Last season and heretofore all our manufacturers have been compelled to seek other markets for a large part of their leaf, thus incurring considerabie unnecessary expense for freight. The railroad company is therefore receiving a benefit from the error you make by not bringing all vour leaf to the Statesville mar- ket. and our buyers would much rather pay this amount to you, being certainly more liberal to you than to the railroads, If you have not already turned towards Statesville, we ask you to do so, being satisfied that you will find it to your interest.

A form of coereion in great favor with McKinleyites is the persistent threas of panic and industrial paral- sis in the event of Republican de- -at_ in the Presidential election his yes From what these pro- chets of evil say it might be inferred ‘our manufacturing and com- ercial enterprises would be wiped at of existence if the imperial -tatesman from Canton, Ohio, is not civenanother term in the White tiouse. Our banks and trust com- nanies, it is mysteriously intimated, right close their doors and go out ee co: business if William McKinley, toa guardian angel of American -vosperity, were retired to the ades of private life to meditate pon the follies and misdeeds of his scnoinistration. In brief. the Me- leyites sert tbat unless the rd financial institutions and ier favored interests are allowed tv elect what Mr. Olney calls an- other ‘“‘syndicated President”’ the country will suut up shopand go tc yreck and ruin. No man with one grain of intelli- cence ought to be deluded into sup- porting the policies and candidates ef the Republican party by such wretched nonsense as that which our »anic-breeders are promulgating. Mir. McKinley may be a very big man— ‘bigger than old Grant,”’ in- deced—but the country can manage to get along quite comfortably with- out bis presence in theWhite House, ‘he panic-breeders may profess to think otherwise, but none know bet- r than they that the prosperity of his country is not wholly depend- cnt upon the success of any politi- cal party or the election of any can- idate for the Presidency. Their oredictions of disaster are merely i rrot cries of politics, and un- r profits have been so great ier this administration that even their ca us maws have been fill- ed they will continue to do business st the old stand,it matters not what the election ray be the result of pext month. If, however, they have cried wolf sv long that they have become vic- ims of their own delusions and are actually afraid tocontinue in busi- ness their places will be filled with- veut difliculty and they will soon be turgotten. For this nation of 75,- 0,000 people will not stop mann- facturing and plowing and exchang- ing its products with the other na- icons of the world because of the changes in the nationalGovernment. ihe world will continue to buy our manufactures and agricultural pro- cucts regardless of the mar in the \yhlite House. There is no sentiment in trade. Men go into business pri- ruarily to make money, not to pro- mote the fortunes of a political par- iy. Bauks, manufactories aud farms will always be needed in this coun- try, and there will be enough of chem to supply the demand. There is an abundance of capital awaiting vestment upon the assurance of reasonable profits, and those hyster- ical persens who talk about retiring from business if the Republican par- »y is not given a new lease of power would tind their places filled with- out delay by men who have faith in the American people and appre- ciate the resources of this country. A nation of 75,000,000 people is not to be frightened into industrial and financial paralysis by the threat of . few persons and corporations to withdraw theic capital from com- :nerce and manufacture and tie up r purse strings. While the panic-breeders cannot arrest the development of this coun- ‘ey, it is unfortunately within their power, through their reckless and vnfounded assertions, to do some tuischief. They can terrify the tim- rous or those whoattach weight to their predictions of disaster and thus cause an alarm which may cul- ininate in distrust of our most mer- iiorious financial institutions. The inister effect of their methods was <ingly illustrated in Baltimore this week, when several hundred de- positors in a savings bank sought to withdraw the funds they had in- “custed to the keeping of the bank. Shere was not the slightest occasion ivr alarm on the part of these de- positors, and their apprehensions would not have been aroused but for the persistent ‘‘calamity talk’’ of those who think Mr. McKinley's cleetion can be promoted by playing upon the fears of timid people. This 's coercion of the most unjustitiable character and deserves tke strong- t condemnation. It is indefensible trom every pointof view and will react upon those who are responsi- ble for such cruel methods of vote- eetting, The American people ought to understand by this’ time that the predictions of panic emanate from iaterests which enjoy special privi- leves under Republican rule. These interests place their own prosperity Lbove the welfare of the country. they “havea good thing,”’ to use Lue vernacular, and they are deter- muned to hold onto the advantages which they possess by throwing dust into the eyes of the voters and making them blind to the actual sit- sation. They cry calamity and shout ausaster in the hope that they may cover up their own tracks. If these taterests could have their way there would never bea change in the Ad- ministration, however injurious the latter »aight be to the nation,as leng as they are able to prosper, They are willing, it appears, to produce a condition bordering upon panic in order that they may carry out tbeir selfish designs. The time has come for the American people to free ‘cemselves from such tyranny, and they can do this with the fuli assur- ance that the business of the coun- try will not be interrupted if those who prosper by special privilezes are forced to surrender advantages which are not enjoyed by the masses of the people. There is an abun- dance of capital in the United States io carry on its industries even if the panic-breeders retire from business. No political party has a mortgage oa the prosperity of the nation. > ape ae Bryan and Harrisora. Wilmington Star. The New York Sun quotes ex- President Harrison as saying he ‘-idn't approve of taking the Philip- miaes, butas we were there he would “erake the best of a bad matter,” and wants to know how that com- pares with the position of Mr. Bry- ana. It doesn’t compare with it at ail, for Bryan doesn’t believe that best can be made of a bad matter. IfGen. Harrison had said that he cidn't approve of the pirating of a ship, but after the piracy had been ‘oramitted he would make “the best of 2 bad matter” by standing by the uirates and aiding them to hold on to the loot, his position would be just a$ moral and just as iogical, ora The False Cry of *‘Fraud” Windsor Ledger. The introduction of the words | “‘rmachine politician,’’ and “a fair ‘count’ into the senatorial contest | will not prove a vote winner for the | candidate in whose interest they are ispoken. As applied to Democrats they are the language of radicalism land butlerism. We desire to be | plain in this matter. The man who jin connection with the Senatorial {primary denounces his opponent as la “machine politician’ and talks |about a ‘fair count’ is unworthy {to represent the white people of |this state inthe U.S. Senate. This paper is not in the employment of Hon. F. M. Simmons, or of any one else for that matter. Dut it would be untrue to itself and to the people to whom it speaks if it did not ée- nounce the aspirations of those who hope to build upon his downfall. by denouncing ‘the machine.’’ ‘The machine’’is simply the Democratic organization in this State,with Sim- mons atits head. It is composed of the State, district, county,towuship and precinct committees and the officers and members of the various clubs throughout the State. They represent the virtue, worth, intelli- gence and patriotism of the white race. They saved North Carolina in ber hour of peril. It is to them that the frightened womanhood of the State looks, when cowering with fear of negro brutes. It is to them the property omner looks when the glare of the midnight flame lights thesky. It is to them the lovers of peace and law and order look when riot and lawlessness and debauchery blacken the name of the State. To be denounced now and by one ask- ing office at their hands, is an affront they are likely to resent and to re- sent with vigor. The cry of ‘‘fraud’’ coming from one claimiag to bea Democrat ap- plied to those who will conduct the Senatorial primary can hardly be listened to with patience. When white men have wrested homes and firesides from black brutes, the rep- resentatives of nevroism have de- nounced them as committing “fraud.’’ Theman who makes the intimation that the men who will conduct the senatorial primary, will not countthe votes fair is un- worthy to represent the white peo- ple of this State in the United States Senate. If votes haye ever beep counted unfairly there was justifi- cation for it in the awful and horri- le conditions that surrounded them, and the wives of those, who did the counting. These two stock phrazes of Pritchard and Butler and Abe Middleton and Geo. White are out of their placein the mouth of a white man, seeking to represent the white people of Morth Carolina in the Senate, and the votes of the people, in the primary, will show that their use isan insult to the character and intelligence of the State’s very best citizenship. i | | | ms tl A Lie Out of the Whole Cloth.

A Chicago news special says of the occurrence. “The truth concerning that alleg- ed ‘dastardly attack’ made upon Governor Theodore Roosevelt, for which the Chicago American has been held responsible, and which it is alleged was made upon him as he was leaving the Trinity Dutch Re- formed church, on Sunday night, was told today by a newspaper re- porter fora Republican morning pa- per. ‘‘Reduced to short teyms and a few words, the story of the ‘attack’ upon the Vice-Presidential nominee was alie out of the whole cloth. It was hatched in the National Repub- lican headquarters shortly before 1Z0’clock on last Sunday night for purely political purposes from the fertile brain of Perry S. Heath. chairman of the National Republi- can Press committee. “At the hour mentioned Sunday night Perry S. Heath called up by telephone the city editors of the Tribune, Record, Inter-Ocean and Times-Herald and gave them the story about the alleged attack upoo Roosevelt. To these several papers he gave the same facts, the same list of witnesses, all of which were prepared by him after Gevernor Roosevelt returaed to the Auditori- um Annex. “The facts in this story were giv- en out by the reporter for the Pimes Herald, who was assigned to the Trinity Dutch Reformed ehurch on Sunday night, and who accompani ed Governor Roosevelt from the eburch to the hotel. In company with him were reporters for all the morniny papers. They thought so little of the ‘dastardly attack’ that they wrote nothing about it, deem- ingit sucha trivial incident, and not one worthy of mention. _ “It remained for Mr. Heath to work up the story for political tim- ber for effect and furnish it to the morning papers. The reporter who gave out the real facts said there was not a single incident to warrant the stories as printed.”’ —c——— OO The Defiant Democracy. Cleveland Star. The Democracy is only strong in proportion as it is defiant and ay- gressive. Whenever it becomes a suppliant it grows weakand helpless. Simmons is above alla defiant and aggressive leader and is the embod iment of the amendment fight. When he is elected it will show to the world that the North Caroliva Democracy intends to defend at all hazards the receatly adopted amend- tepublicans say There are no Trusts Wilmington Star. Senator Sewell, of New Jersey, is avuother of the Republican states- | men who doesn't believe there are | any trusts. He says he doesut) “know of such athing as @ trust. | Perhaps he wouldn't kaow a trust from a buzzard if he ran up against it in the big road, We jude from the little that Mr. Sewell knows that aman doesn’t have to know much to get into the U. S. Senate from New Jersey. Mr. Sewell does not know whata trust is, but like Han- na, Depew and other trust ayents he is dodging behind a technicality. How he dodges, and why ke should know something about trusts, 1s shown in the following editorial, which we clip from the New York World, a near neighbor of Senator Seveil and pretty well posted on New Jersey: ‘Last year two thousand corpo- rations were chartered in New Jer- sey, authorized t0 issue stock to the amount of $3,500,000,000, Six hun- dred of these were capitalized at $1,600,000 or more, and fully one hundred were absolute monopolies. The State derived a revenue of 21,000,000 from chartering those combinations under a law which practically licenses them todo any- thing they please—to buy, sell or lease real estate and to issue bonds without limit, and without giving publicity to their operations. “Senator Sewell says that the Standard Oil Company, one of the New Jersey corporations, ‘was per- haps at one time a trust, but it has been reoryanized under the new law and is now as legitimate as any oth- er business.’ “This is the Republican defence of the greatest and most arbitrary mo-| nopoly in the world—that because not technically a trust it is perfectly ‘levitimate.’ But this is not the view of the common law, nor of the act of Congress which declares that ‘every contract, combination in form of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy in restraint of trade, is hereby de- clared illegal.’ ‘There are hundreds of such com- binations chartered by New Jersey to prey upon the country, and yet Senator Sewell has the yall to say they are ‘legitimate and beneficial!” New Jersey finds that trusts‘*ben- efit’’and makes about #1,000,000 a year out of them. Little Delaware, concluded she would yet some of the benefit too, and opened a trust mak- ing shop on her own account. But New Jersey got the start and raked in the benefits. —— + The Man Above the Dollar. Mr. John J. Valentine, of San Francisco, the president of the Wells-Fargo Express Company and a former supporter of McKinley, has declared for Bryan. Mr. Valentine has sent out circulars to his em- ployes in which ke states his position as follows: “Mr. Bryan has ranged himself and the great party behind him on the right side of the debate. He throws the whole organized power of the Democracy into the fight against the imperialistic program. From the standpoint of all men who are opposed to the revolutionary departure of the present administra- tion, his course, on this issue at least, is removed from censure. De- mur as some may to the party’s at- titude on the financial question, its position on the crucial test of our Democracy is right, and Mr. Bryan deserves the suffrages of the Amer- ican people for having set it square- ly upon that footing. “Those who think the dollar is more important than the rights of man can vote for Mr. McKinley. I shall vote for Mr. Bryan.”’ ni © ——s Bryan and a Cour- tesies. A special from East St. Loufs to the Baltimore Sun says: Messrs Bryan and Rooseve!s sheok hands across the political chasm at Alton the other night. Their pri- vate cars came alongside in the yards. Each stepped upon the platform and recognized the other at once. “Hello,” said Roosevelt, thrust- ing forth his hand. “Hello,” quoth Bryan, grasping the extended hand. “How is your voice, “It’s rough as the Populist plat- form. How is yours, Col. Bryan?” laughed Roosevelt. ‘Mine is as broken as Republican promises,’’ retorted the Nebraskan, laughing, too. Then everybody laughed and cheer- ed, the Democrats with Bryan shouting ‘‘Hurrah’’ for him, and Roosevelt's followers yelling for McKinley. The meeting came whol- ly by chance and was as cheerful as if was picturesque. The Bryan special train srood on a sidetrack to let the Roosevelt spe- cial pass. As the trains canse wlong- side each other s stop of several minutes was made. SE a Homely Girls Preferred. Mew Orleans Timcs-Democrat. “You ask whether good looks are’ a disadvantage to a girl in busi- ness,’’said a comely young woman who now oceupiesan important po sition in a New Orieans mercactile | eatablishment. ‘“‘That is a question | that has been propounded before, | and in a general way I would answer | yes, decidedly. A few years ago, | however, when women began toen-{quiring turn of micd wanted to} ter business life in considerable numbers, the exact reverse was the ease. Jam still under 30, but I re- member distinctly when it was next | to impossible for a homely girl to| yet a situation. Good looks were insisted upon in typewriters and stenoyraphers, and merchants were then under the impression that pret-|the only patch of ty clerks brought trade. It took! some time to explode that idea. The pretty clerks certainly attracted crowds to their counters, but they were crowds of dudes and lcafers, wo would buy a 5-cent paper of pins and then flirt away three or four dollars’ worth of time, while the women, who constitute four- fifthsof the patrons of all retail houses, had a strong aversion to being waited upon by a professed beauty. Moreover, no dependence was to be’placed in the clerks them- selves. The handsomest girls were pretty sure to be vain and“‘touchy,”’ and wher one proved to be really valuable she was morally certain to getimarricd at the very time her services were most needed, So practical men began to see that pretty clerks did not pay, as a cold business proposition, and the same discovery was presently made at the offices. Typewriting belles made more trouble tnan they were worth. They demoralized their fel- low-employes and created no end of jealousy and bitterness and friction. In many cases, perhaps in most cases, the poor girl wasn’t in the least to blame. She couldr’t help being good to look at and was prob- ably trying her best to attend to her own affairs, but the idiotic men wouldn't let her. Howeyer. results are the only things that count in business nowadays, and a few years agoa big reaction against beauty set in. Since tnen f am sure that the feeling has been growing steadi- ly stronger and stronger against the pretty girl in business. But please don’t misunderstand me. I am referring altogether to the girl ‘who ‘travels on her prettiness,’ 2s the sayizg yoes, A pretty virl who doesn’t make her good looks obtru- sive and who shows by jher bearing that she expects to hold ber posi- tion by simple hard work bas just as good a chance as anybody; but, unfortunately, such girls are rare. At present most stores prefer clerss who are plain and ladylike in their appearance and who make no pre- tensions to beauty, There isa biy store in Chicago that employs about 250 girl clerks and used to boust openly that there wasn't one in the lot that wasn't an admitted beauty. I was in Chicago during my vaca- tion and yisited that establishment to make some purchases. Upon my word, [thought I was in an old ladies’ home. The woman who wait- ed on me was 50 if she was a day and she had a face like 2 pair of nut- crackers. Of course, that was go- ing to the other extreme, but I no- ticed that business was something tremendous. Herein New Orleans I think they have struck the happy mean. Our large stores contain lots of pretty girls, but the fact isn't ‘featured,’ as they say at the theatres. You can see at once that no importance is attached to it, and that brings me back, by the way, to the starting point. Ifa girl is *hor- oughly capable and has plenty of tact and discretion her good looks will be no especial handicap in earn- ing aliving, Otherwise she is now- adays at a decided disadvantage compared to tke girl who is homely and industrious.” —_—-—aer Lincoln a Frue Prophet. Wilmington Star. In writing to a friend about the close of the war between the States, Abrabam Lineoln drew the follow- ing gleomy picture of the future as {t appeared to him: “{ see in the noar future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. As aresult of the war, corporations have been en- throned and an era of corruption in high places will fcllow, aud the money power of the couutry wi!l en- deavor to prolong its reign by work- ing upon the prejudices of the peo- ple, until all wealth is aggregated in a few bands and the Republic is de- stroyed. 1 feel at this moment more anxious for the safety of the country thanever before, even in the midst of war.”’ This was prophetic, but it did not require the gift of prophecy to speak as Mr. Lincoln ther spoke. The things which he feared had already begun to happen. The feundations of great fortunes had been laid out Frying the Fat eut of “Revenue Deo- dlers.” Durham Sun. Boodler Bailey, of Advance, a postofiice in Davie county, is send- ing out letters to all of ths store- keepers, gaugers, and revenue men generally, to the effect that ihe elec- tion of McKinley depends largely upoa the interest they take in the matter, and that he confidently ex- pects a check from them for a nice round sum to help on the eauge. Many of these letters have been re- ceived in Durham county, aud some have come to men who have not been assigned toduty. How self-respect- ing Republicans can sanction such a corrupting of the ballot, it is hard fora patriot to understand. The man who holds office must pay for the privilege of so Going to corrupt others in order to keep in power the machine that gives him pie. This is political liberty for Republicans. The Peabody Fund. Fayetteville Observer. The trustees of the Peabody Ndu- cational Fund, from which the Col- ored Normal School of this city re- ceives aid, held their annual meet- ing in New York yesterday. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Mel- ville W. Fuller was elected first vice chairman and he presided. Bishop Whipple was elected second vice president. Dr. Curry reported that the distribution of theincom: of the Peabody fund since October 1st, 1899, was as follows: Alabama $5.950, Arkansas $1,800, ment and all that it implies. The defeat of Simmons would place us in | somewhat of an apologetic attitude | before the nation—in the position of | people “hoping” that our amend- jiana Florida $1,200,Georgia $3,600, Louis- a 34,200, “Mississippi $2,500, North Carolina $5,030, South Caro- lina $5,400, Tennessee $1,209, Texas 33,750, Virginia $5,300, West Vir- ginia $1,650, Peabody Norm.l Col- ment would not be interfered with.

Great rail- road and other combinations had al- ready been formed and entered as dictators into lesgislativejhalls of States and nation. Money had al- ready begun to play its part in buy- ing and corrupting voters and law makers, so that when Lincoln gave expression to his fears he was peer- ing into the future, upon which the light of the past was shining. The money power then controlled the Republican party as it does now, but it was notas mighty then as it is now for it has been fostered and strengthened by the nursing and fa- vors shown it by the party which it controlled. There never has been an election since Lincoln’s time in whi-h the Republican party was not backed by the money power, and never an election in which it did not draw on that power for the money to carry elections. If Linceln were living today he might possibly be astonished at the almost literal fulfilment of his prophecy, a fulfilment true in every respect save as to the actual destruc- tion of the Republic, the undermin- ing of which has been progressing steadily. The Republic still exists in name and form; we vote, elect men tooffice, have our courts, &c., but money rules the man and money A Home Fhrust. Wilmiugtom Star, The Repnblicans always vet tbe! worst of it when they pop any ques- tionsat Wm. J. Bryan. He doesn't | lose his temper like Mountebank Roosevelt does, but answers good naturedly and always makes a home thrust when he does. At Anderson. Ind., a few days ago, while he was speaking some Republican of an in- constitutions! amendment. This made about the sixth or seventh time that question has oeen asked and from the fact that they all seem- ed to have North Carolina oo their minds the natural inference is that they think that North Carolina is ground in the United States where there is quali- fied negro suffrage. In this case Mr. Bryan enlighten ed tbe Anderson seeker for infor- } mation by calling his attention to ithe constitutional provision ia the State of Orevon, ayood Republican State, and the law passed by a Re- publican Conyress disfranchising ne- gro voters in the District of Colum- bia, to do which and vet rid of every negro vote, whether intelligent or not, they made 2 clean sweep and disfranchised every white voter. | And then he coneluded with the fol- lowing home thrust. | “There was never a more shaime- ful piece of hypocrisy than is that under which the Rapublicans bide when they talk about Southern amendments. It wasa Republican Congress that took the right to vote aw3ay from those in the District of Columbia and for thirty years the negro bas been electing Republican Presidents and getting janitorships in return, and you never hear a modern Republican say anything for him except during a campaign when his vote is needed.”’ Ove of the beat evidences of the negro's unfitness to vote is the fact that he has for so many years been permitting the white bosses to make a tool of him, and hasn't been able to see through the hypocrisy of this preteaded interest in him which is shown only in election times when, as Mr. Bryan says, ‘‘his vote is needed, ”’ —_— 2 a> - Our True Destiny. St. Louis Republic, There is not of necessity sn im practical Utopianism in Mr. Bryan’s earnestly expressed desire that this nation shall in the future stand as the arbiter and peace-maker among allthe nations, a great and just government, in whose integrity and honesty of purpose all other govern- ments shall repose a warranted con- fidence. Taking into consideration the principles upon which the American government was established, its system under which the _ people themselves govern themselyes, its legitimate and rightful control of one-half the world, its unquestioned ability to maintain its own rigkts acd those of the weaker nations so long under its protection in this hemisphere, it would indeed seem that God has ordained just such a mission foe the United States as a world power. That this is the real “manifest destiny”’’ of his beloved country no thougbtful American may well doubt. It is significant also that the only course necessary to the realization of Mr. Bryan's dream of true Amer- ican greatness is a faithful Ameri- can adherence to the American doc- trines férmulated by those of our x#reatest statesmen who saw our destiny aright. We are remote from the quarrels of Europe. Our abitrament between European na- tious would be that ofa government not swayed by selfish considerations of its own. Our refusal to abridge the liberties or despoil the territory of weaker peoples where the temp tation of conquest and wider domin- ion was offered to ourselves would testify to the sincerity cf our pro- fessions for the welfare of atl the world. Our creed of devotion to the rights of man would entitle us to the love and respect of all man- kicd and all the governments estab- lished by man. And, even selfishly speaking, there is no truer glory or greater power than comes from a universal regard thus created. — oe ee The Smatiest Paper. London Chronicle.

They willhaye the same yround of con- should be elected by that Legisla- ture. In the second place, the Uni- ted States Senate, in all its history ofene hundred and twelve years, has never undertaken to question the regularity of the election of members of a State Legislature. Any irregularities which occur dur- ing the election by the Legislature of a Senator, such as bribery, ete, will be inquired into by the Senate, but it never questions the vegular- ity of the certificate ofelection of a member of a State Legislature. That’s purely a State matter and the Senate has wiscly never meddled with it. Mr. Simmons will certain- ly ve seated if he is elected, and he will certainly be elected. * " *” Mr. Bryan bas been dealing some heavy blows to the trusts. Ina re- cent speech at Medina, N. Y., he said: ‘‘How can aman vote the Re- publican ticket, when he knows that ike Republicans neither denounce nor dare to denounce them.”’ And yet Republican orators try to de- ceive our people into believing that their party is opposed to trusts. As long as the Republicans can pull the trusts for campaign funds they'll let the trusts bleed the people.

Richardson, whose mutilated body wes found on the track of the South- era railroad si2 miles from Charles- ton several days ago. Ax inquest will be held on Sunday and in the meantime the authorities will en- deavor to get such evidence as will be sufticient to hold some of the ring leaders for murder. From the man «led condition of the man’s body it was impossible to tell whether he had been killed by robbers or sim- ply mutilated by a train. His scalp was gone, butit is thought that he was tirst sandbagged and then put on the track. Richardson was io ped repute with the robber band, andit was whispered around the black settiement at Ten Mile Hill that he would be murdered before he could give the leaders away. Thereis an unconfirmed story that Richardson had_promised to meeta mayistrate at noon Sunday when he was expected to divulge the plans of the thieves, but he never lived te make his statement. The magis- trate was waiting at neon for Rich ardsoo. but he was informed at that hour that the negro had been found dead. These matrers are being in vestivated and the truth will be sought. For tcu miles above Charleston the Southern railway passes through a most notorious negro section, which is considered the worst in the State. Around the junction a num- ber of stops have to be made to eross other tracks, and the law re- quircs trains to run ata low rate of speed. The negroes have found little dificulty in wrenching open the cars and throwing out goods, which are later picked up and car- “ied away by vther members of the wang. With the trains running slowly these negroes can steal val- uzble goods and then escape before the train begins to take on more speed. About $500 worthof provis ious were recovered this week. Lately one of the special detec- tives in the service of the Southern has been accompanying all the night he is aboard the negroes do not at- tempt to rob any of the cars.

Chief Smith immediately recover- ed himself and shot the negro through the thigh. While doing so his hand was caught by a negro woman and the revolver snatched from his hand by the man who did the stabbing, who, stepping back, opened fire on the chief. One ball passed throuzh his left breast and came out near the shoulder blade, and another broke the skin on his right side. This attracted the attention of the loungers about the depot, and after some delay the chief was taken to the hotel. where be is now receiving medical attention. A posse was at onceorganized and several of the negroesare being held in the city bastile. Deputy Sherit! Handley, with his two dogs, tracked Kid Henry two mijes in the country, where be was caught in an old uninhabited cot- taye. in his possession was found the revolver of Chief Smith.

L. -Wilson, president of Washington and Lee University, Postmaster-General under Cleve- land and for years the Democratic leader in the House of Representa- tives, died suddenly Wednesday morning of congestion of the lungs. Tke Raleigh News and Observer pays him this tribute: A few weeks ago, when Mr. Bryan spoke in West Virginia, aletter was read from Hon. William L. Wilson, expressing regret that ill health pre- vented his presence, and voicing bis earnest advocacy of the para mount issue of the campaign. It was ashort letter, and in 2 few short sentences the scholar-politi- cian put the Republic aboye the Empire. It was bislast public ut terance. He entered politics as an advocate of constituional yovera- went; he msde his reputation as an honest advocate of an bonest ‘‘no special privilege”’ tariff law; and in his last sickness closed his public career by an appeal to his old con- stituents to stand against the new and dangerous policy of imperialism. No man has served in Congress since the war who was better qual itied by learning, industry and devo- tion tothe welfare of the people. He had the courage of his convic- tions and presented his yiews with the ability of the scholar and the eloquence of the orator. Those who witnessed the scene in the House of Representatives in 1894 when he made the closing speech in support of the Wilson bill will never forge it. The great men of both parties had spoken to an audience composed of the foremost men of all callings in Washington. Mr. Wilson, paie and thin, even then showing traces of the disease that shortened his life, beyan his speech as if he had not the physical strenuzth to com plete it. but as be warmed up to his subject, the power of the mind ob- tained the mastery over tbe weak ness of the body, and he spoke with a burning eloquence that never comes except from the lips of one who is delivering a messaze from the heart. It deserves to rank with the few efforts that give immortah- ty to tae orator. He had hardly finished before his colleagues, led by Villiam J. Bryan and Henry St. George Tucker, had raised him on their shoulders and borne him to his seat in triumph. = In personal life he was a medel to his fellows, and in public life he was singularly devoted to the high ideai of the patriot. His influence was elevatiag asd ennobliog. in his death the South loses one of its first statesmen and one of its foremost educators. A fhe Duty to Vote Ex-Gov. Boutwell, in Harvard Democrat.

Vance, 2 son of the late Senator Vance, who now re- sides in Washington City, has writ- ten a letter, which was published in the Charlotte Observer, violently at- tacking Chairman Simmons: Mr. Vance says his father died distrust- ‘ng Mr. Simmons. Senator Vance cied in the spring of 1894. This was the fusionists carried the State and ayain turned the Eastern negro Counties over to the tender juercies of their negro majorities— before the second day of negro po- iicemen in Wilmington and negro Justices of the peace in Edgecombe. Our great Senator died before that xlorious campaign of 1898 when Simmons led the Democratic hosts to sucha glorious victory over such overwhelming odds, and vefore Au- gust, 1900, when the party under Simmons’ ieadership rolled up over 53,000 majority for perpetual free- dom from negro oftice-holding. Had ~ Vance lived we believe his opinion ef Simmons would have changed, as have those of Senator darvis, Major Wdwead J. Hale snd thowsands of ethers of the dead Senator’s closest before day and Friday. He’ did not once refer to to the Senatorship or his JoOwn candidacy, but spoke for Bryan, Kluttz and the Democratic .party. His speeches were among the ablest arguments eyer heard in Iredell county, and were delivered with tel- ling force. Mr. Simmons is a plain direct speaker, in no sense an orator but one of the strongest reasoners in the State. He isa plain manand our peeple were very much pleased with his speeches and with him as a man. It is eyident that he will car- ry the county by a very large ma- jority, and his election is absolutely certain. He will make a Senator of whorn the State wil! be proud. ~ i <p <a - The August election was purcly Ja State election and yet revistrars are indicted in the Federal Courts on thecomplaints of negroes who are put up to make their charges oy mean white men.

(Sagned) ALFRED MooRE WApDELL.”’ Child Causes a Wreck. dehovillg Qitizen, toth, The derailing of the engine on the Southernat Willet’s station was caused by a spike on the track, put there by a 6-vear-old girl, Bessie Crisp, who was walking along the track with her mother and little brother at the time. Mrs. Crisp was some distance in front of the two children. In walking along the boy found a spike and threw it, the spike landing in the middle of the track some distance ahead. When the children came to where it was the zirl picked it up and placed it on the track, in such a way as to cause the engine to leave the track and dash down @ 30-foot embankment. A coal car ran off the track but did not go down. All of the crew of the engine and baggage and mail cars jumped, with the exception of Engineer ‘‘Bud’’ Poindexter, who stood by his throttle, and came out of the wreck with only an injury to his shoulder. None of the other men were hurt by the jump. The damage to the engine is esti- mated to be not more than $100. tT te Ghastly Cargo trem Manila San Franciace dispatch, 20th The transport Sherman, which has arrived here from the Philippines, is practically a funeral ship. On board the vessel are 51 dead, 12 in- sane, 567 sick and 58 convalescent soldiers and civilians. The transport has been sent to quarantine. Most discouraging brought from the Par pen wrecks who have come me fm the Sherman. It is stated that the hospitals at Manila are political and personal friends. Ifjovercrowded with the victims of Vance were alive now, he would see that mightybost of Democrats whom be was wont to lead, with few ex- ceptions, now lined up for Simmons, and he would see those papers and igdividuals who fought him hardest while he lived bending every energy to defeat Simmons. In the line-up Simmons has the Vance side. if anything could increase our ad- miration for Chairman Simmons bis activity in favor of the Democrat- ic registrars and judges of election who have been indicted in the State and Federal courts would do it. Re- cently, when the eases of several] registrars were expected to be ta- xen up in the Federal Court at Greensboro, Chairman Simmons guit his campaign and went to Greensboro for their defense. He got their cases~gontinued, and he also arranged forte continuance of the cases against the Burke regis- trars inthe court here. When he was told Friday night that one of our Iredell registrars, Mr. R. L. Rine. was indicted, he said, ‘Tell Mr. Rine I will stand by him with all of the power of the Democratic State organization.’’ Sueh a man as Chairman Simmons can’t be beaten in the Democratic party, for Democrats love him and he is wor- thy of their regard. > a ae Col. Weddell has withdrawn from the race for Senator. His card, printed elsewhere, is what was to have been expected from him, great and patriotic Democrat that he is. Since his withdrawal the Senator- fal situation has cleared up, and it is now evident to all except those who will not see that [Mr. Simmons will cefeat Gen. Carr by an immense ma- jovity. Theentire East is for Sim- kons—Carr will not carry a single county east of Raleigh—while near- ly every county of the West is for Simmons also. We know that Mr. Simmons expects majorities in at least 85 of the 97 Counties in the State. When it comes to predicting political results in North Carolina, we will risk F. M. Sin * judg= nent before that of eee. man. He will bave at least 50,000 majori- t¥. Watch the prediction, eee ee -bullets and disease, Fully 2,000 sol- diers now lie on the cots in the hos- pitals and many of these will die be- fore they can be placed on board transports te be brought home. Added to this is the fact that the transport Meade is now on ji way to San Francisco with 300 iers. All of these are shattered id mind and body, many of them being vio- lently insane from the effects of hardship and the climate. Most of them will never recover their reason. The transport Logan left Manila last Tuesday. It carries 273 soldiers, all of whom are sick and man y of whom are bordering on insanity. Itis thus with every transport that leaves Manila. Hardly enough ships can be secured to carry ou the victims of tbe campaign against the Filipinos. Worn by severe trials is the fields, soldiers become demented day after day, and, reports say, are obliged to be confined and watched for fear they will do harm to them- selyes and their comrades.

He has dug more Republican graves and furnished everything for them ex- cept the Qowers, than any other ying Worth Carolinian. When he andertook and aecomplished the ar- duous task committed to him by the wise counsellors of the Democratic party in its hour of distress, he pre- pared himself, in the language of Roscoe Conkling, ‘forall the calum- ny and responsibilties which he must take who strikes at thieves, marauders and miscreants who have fattened upon the needs and _neces- sities of their country.’’ These have come, but when we consider the source and the motives they are more honorable than a crown. Ma- rion Butler’s abuse of him for the glorious services he has rendered his native State, the true sons and fair daughters that dwell within her borders, is, I know, a much hand- somer tribute to his manhood and fidelity, with you people assembled here, than any praise that I may offer. If your associations have ev- er been bad, if you have listened to the enemies of the white race and of honest government, you have heard thrusts at “Simmons and his ma- chine.’’ North Carolina, never an ingrate, once more in clean hands, ruled by patriotism and honor and blessed with peace,returns thanks to & gracious God for Simmons and that “machine.”” I look my countrymen {n the face and tell you that that machine consists of patriotic, non- salaried white men scattered over the precincts of the State, whose wisdom and efforts knocked out the other machines and caused some sorry white menand negroes to be dropped from their country’s pay- tolland the State forever rid of their services. When Mr. Simmons redeemed the State, he did it not under theso-called ‘bul!-pen”’ elec tion law to which all human evils are attributed, but under the law passed by the fusionists whieh they Say was absolutely fair, closed every avenue and precluded every possi- bility of fraud; and I swear to you that 1t was fair to them for under the provisions of that law written in cold blood, they had two “‘ballot- box thieves’? to our one and they were named througb the channels of the two most shameless political machines that ever lent aid to the prostitution of the State’s credit or trafiicked upon the rights of her cit- izens. Iam glad of the privilege of introducing to the people of Iredell county) Mr. F, M. Simmons, of North Carolina. Mr. Simmons after gracefully ac- knowledging these courtesies pro- ceeded to discuss the great issues before the people in a deliberate, calm and logical manner. He said the people of the State were to be congratulated on the freedom from great avils in the revo- lution they had just was a revolution , on sarciutons are asually attouded Yy mage er less éisturb- ance. Nothing else was to be ox- pected in liberating the people from the devitalizing forces that prevail- ed. He did not know whether the amendment would be attacked by the courts or not, but did know that already it had been assailed by the Republicans as illegal, unjust and unrighteous in their platfo:ms and before the people and it could be unwise to ignore this as a campaign issue. For his part he stood ready to defend it at all times, not only its legality, butits justice and right. Cousness, whenever and wherever attacked. There is nothing either in its provisions or manner of ratifi- cation that could not be defended in the courts of law or of conscience. Ifit is administered in the mght Spirit it will carry out the predic- tions ofits friends and satisfy all the people The white people saw it was best to eliminate the negro from polities and did so.

Colonies like the Philip- pines means war, militarism and a large standing army for all time. When fcKin!ey came in power we had had no foreign war for 50 years. In three years we have had three foreign wars. The standing army has been increased from 25,000 to 60,000 and now 100,000 is required. He denounced the Republican pol- foy and legislation that put the dol- Jar above theman. The Democratic party is every time on the side of the man, while the Republican party for the past twenty-five years has been legislating special privileges and opportunities for the few and against the mass of the people. Such legislation made it possible for one man toamass £200.000,000 and gave toone man an income of thirty or forty millions. This class legis- lation had so enriched the few until a few thousand men own over one- half of all the property in the Uni- ted States. Such a condition of af- fairs was bad for the people and a menace to their liberties. He re- ferred to McKinley’s sudden change onthe Porto Ricaa tariff question and said no one could predict the ultimate policy of the Republican party even as to Guba. The plat- form is not clear. The Democratic platform on the other hand, rings clear and true, and if Democracy comes into powerCuba will be freed, Porto Rico will be brought under constitutional relations and the Fili- Pinos will be protected in their lib- erties. As totrusts the Republican plat form bas no remedy-and Republican leaders want none The Democratic platform proposes to take the tariff off trust articles. This will cut of about nine-tenths of them and the other tenth can then be dealt with under thelaws. He referred to the jute bagging trust that was grinding down the cotton farmersin ‘88 and said that be wasin Congress at the time and introduced the bill to re- move the protective tariff from jute bagging. This was done and the bottom fell out of the trust. This was the first bill in Congress that struck at the trusts by putting the goods on the free list. He charged the Republican party with spoliation at home and pillaye abroad and quoted this passage from Goldsmith: “Ill fares the land to hastening ills & prey. 2 Where wealth accumulates and men ecay. Yet he did not decry thrift-made wealth, nor underestimate it; it is a great blessing to the possessor and bis country. He was proudof the Democratic party and its achievements and es- pecially proud of our great leader. William Jennings Bryan is a “reat man and would beelected. He com- pared conditions with ‘92 and 96 and showed how the outlook was better than in ’92 and much better than in ‘96 when we did not know our leader and when we temporized and fused. Now we had learned bet- ter. He plead for a fuil vote of the par- go to work to return to Congress Mr. Eistts, for no district Siete was better represented. At the close of his speech be appealed with pathos that the Democratic banner that had waved triumphant- ly in the two last campaigns be not allowed to drag in the dustof defeat this, time and spoke as one wko plead for his heart’s dearest wish. Throughout the entire speech of an hour ana half he held the close earnest attention of all in the large crowd before him. That his words appealed strongly to them was man- ifest by their frequent applause and by the look of deep determination on every Democratic face at its close No speech ever made a Stronger and more lasting impres- sion or did more good for the party. - —_ TAYLORSVILLE NEWS. —— Mr. W.

Mr, Sherman was one of the great Republican leaders and one of the most noted men of this century. He had been a Representative to Con- gress for a number of years, Sena- tor foralong term and twice had held cabinet positions. The Chinese rebels recently, in South Honan, frightfully tortured Bishop Fontosati. covered two priests with coal oil and set them on tire and massacred 3,000 native con- verts who aided the French priests in defending the church. Hon. John Sherman, ex-Secretary Washington, Monday morning in the 78th year of his age, mediate cause of his death was brain exhaustion incident to old age. His death had been expected for some days. Seybold & Dickstod, of Sheffield, England, the largest crucible steel manufacturers in great Britain, are contemplating moving to Wheeling, W. Va., where they will erect a $3,000,000 plant, employing 3,500 men. Their object is to get into the American market. C. N. Alvard, note teller for the First National Bank at Broadway and Wall Streets, New York, has robbed the bank of over $700,000. He has been in the bank’s employ since ‘79 and his defaleations extend oyer 3 period of some vears. This is the biggest haul ever made by a bank employe. Jesse Sanders, colored,had his neck broken ina wrestling match at Lake City, Fla., last Sunday. He was wrestling with a comrade, each trying to put the other in a pit § feet deep. Both lost theic balance at the pit’sedye and Sanders fell headforemost, his neck being snapp- ed by the fall. A dispatch from Constantinople to Paris says that Mohammedans are again pillaging, outraging and killing Armenian Christians. It's about time for the Christian powers to plainly show the Sultan of Tur- key that he’s only ruling by suffer- id the] ance and that if he can’t control his subjects they can. Lord Curzon, viceroy of India, estimates that one quarter of India's tots] population was affected by the famine, that 2,000,000 famine strick- en people are still in need of aid. The loss in crops is put at $250,000,- 000, besides many millions from loss of -cattle. So far $27,328,000 has been spent in relief of the suffering, and the government will spend $4,800,000 more up to March next. The London Standard says, speak- ing of the present demand and sup- ply of cotton: ‘Unless the predic- tions of the small crop are falsified the supply will be materially short, which will mean the continuance of relatively high prices and another curtailment of production later. There is no getting beyond the solid fact that we must go to America or shut up the mills.”’ This shows that farmers who still have cotton on hand would do well to wait awhile on prices. Henry E. Youtsey was convicted by the jury Saturday as a principal in the murder of Governor Goebel and his punishment fixed at life im- prisonment. Only one ballot was taken on the question of guilt. The defense fileda motion in arrest of judgment on the ground of Youtsey’s condition and the hearing is set for February 2d, 1901, when sentence will be passed. Youtsey is the third man convicted, the others be- ing Caleb Powers, sentenced for life, and James Howard, sentenced to be huny. Thus one by one the slayers of the patriot Goebel are brought to punishment. ee Andrew Cahill, a New York po- liceman, is under arrest charged with being accessory to the robbery of Dr. Wylie S.

Bennett. who so efficiently managed Statesville’s baseball te2m the past season, was married on the 19th inst. to Miss Myrtle Holt, daughter of Professor and Mrs. M. H. Hoit, at the nome of the bride’s father in Oak Ridge. Af- ter the marriage Mr. and Mrs. Ben- nett left for Washington and other points to spend awhile before voing to Nebraska, the grooiu'’s home. Mr. Bennett was formerly a teach- er in Oak Ridge Institute. He has many warm friends bere whose wood wishes go with him to his western bome. = Wilbur Steele, a white man of some 21 years, was found dead in the woods near his home in the Wil- liamsbury neighborhood. in Eagle Mills towsship, 18 miles north of this town, at 10 o'clock Wednesday moruins. the lfth. Drs. H. F. Loug and 2. A. Campteli made a post mortem examination of the body and Coroner Geo. M. Foard summoned a jury and held an in- quest. Steele had been driaking beavily and his death was probably due to “‘takingon too much.”’ He left his home about # o'clock in the morning and aa howr later was found dead. There were no indica- tious of foul play. The deceased leaves a wife and child. Morehead Walker, colored, now languishes in jail pending trial at next term of court. Walker seemed determined to land in jxil and is no doubt satisfied. He was brought be- fore the mayor Monday, on a charge of attempting to shoot his wife. He gave bond for 350 and then went home and cleared his wife and sister- in Jaw out of the house witha pistol. He was ‘‘pulled”’ again and this time went to jail in default of 3100 bond. Dick Morse, the stree: exhorter, is here again and will use around these diggings for the next week or so. He hourly calls sinners to re- pentance. He is just back from Charlotte which he describes as a veritable modern Babylon for wick- edness, but then we expect Dick takes a ‘‘kinder’’ narrow view of things. Mr. W. E. Krider will move his family to Salisbury sometime be- tween now and November first, when he will cpen a grocery storein that city. Mr. Kreider has a number of friends here who are sorry to lose him from our midst.

Mr. W. A. Wright, of Shiloh township, was |W. L. Harvin, of Statesville, the officer. There were only two ceses from fredeli and Alexander counties on the criminal docket tried besides those mentioned last week. They were: United States vs. D. L. Icen- hour, of Alexander, distilling, ete., nol pros. Icenhour was sentenced in anotber case and ran away after hearing the verdict of the jury. He has been captured since and ‘put in jail. I. C and C.S. Holland, removing ard concealing, ete., guilty as to C, wes 000 fine and costs, judgment as to imprisonment tc be suspended on payment of fine and costs Fine and costs paid. This case excited much interest as Mr. C. S. Bolland is one of the leading citizens of North Iredell. The testimony as we heard it, in brief, is as follows: Revenue officers early one morning in last January found two barrels of unstamped whiskey on the lands of Mrs. Mary Walker, near the dfstil- ;lery of |. C. Holland, in Olin town- jship. While passing the barnyard of Mr. C. S. Holland, near there, they discovered, from the road 156 yards away, a nevro unhitching a team of mules. Further down the road they tracke@ a wagon to the still. The wagon in the Holland barnyard was not identified with the one that went to the still by a single witness. The vovernment contended that the whiskey was re- moved in G. S Holland’s wagon. I. C. Holland, the distiller, was cieared. After Mr. C. S. Holland’s coavie- tion Friday morning bail was offer- ed to any amount, but Judge Boyd would not accept and committed Mr. liolland to jai. unti! Saturday morning when sentence was passed. After the judgment of the court was given, the fine of $1,000 being paid at once, Mr. Holland was released. There was much feeiisg manifested in the case and considerable criti- cism of the court’saction. The con- census of opinion being that the case against Holland was by no means proven and that the judgment was extremely severe and the refusal of bail unnecessarily harsh. Wiiliam Honeycutt, was convicted of disti!ling and sentenced to four years imprisonment fined $500 andcosts. ‘Bill’ Honeycutt is the Mitchell county desperado, who kill- ed Deputy Marshall Grier some sad months aze when Grier was at- tempting to arrest him, Shortly afterwards Phillips, the only eye- witness ef the killing, was himself snot and killed while he was plow- ing. Many think Honeycutt, then at large, n.urdered Phillips to pre yent his testifying. Honeycutt served a term in the Tennessee pen itentiary for manslaughter. He was indicted at this term for the murder of Grier but after convic- tion in the other case the murder case was nol prossed. He will be taken from jail here on November Sth. and contined in tbe Nashville, Tenn., penitentiary. True bills were found against five Democratic registrars for alleged deprivation of rights guaranteed under the constitution: Jno. Mur- phy, Salisbury: C. M. McCorkle, Newton, John Powers, Buncombe; tl. M. Rine, Burke, and Robert Rhine, of Shilok township, Iredell. The powers case was removed to Asheville, the others were contin- ued, Se US The Hobbs-Yonan Scholarship. Mr. Avery Hobbs, of Davidson township, has given a thousand dol- lars to the North Carolina Medica! College to establish a scholarship to be kacwn as the Hobbs-Yonan scholarship. The scholarship is es- tablished in memory of young Fred Hovbs,only son of SEA err toboe and of A. D. Yonan, a young Per- sian student, who was preparing as a medical missionary. It will be re- membered that these two young men, fast friends, the one a student of the North Carolina Medical Col- lege, the other preparing to enter that institution, were drowned in the Catawba river near Davidson last summer, while Hobbs was try- ing to rescue his friend. The college will add $1,500 to the gift and useit for the education of medical missionaries. No more lovely and fitting memorial can be eonceived than this tribute of a loy- ing and heart broken father to the memory of his noble son, who lost his life in an effort tosave his friend and of that friend whose love could prompt such a sacrifice. — A Rarseleys Carriage in Statesyille. Quite an interesting sight on our streets the past few days has been the locomobile of Messrs. Clarence and Oscar Steele, members ef J. C, Steele & Sons. The locomobile is a ‘“horseless carriage’’ run by steam] wenerated by gasoline. The vehicle looks like alarge buggy minus the shafts. It is acomplete road loco- motive; having the engine under the seat, the throttle and reverse lever on the right side, the guide bar in front of driver and gong un- der his feet. It is guided from the hubs of fore-wheels instead of from the axle. It weighs 575:pounds and has a maximum speed of 40 miles an hour. Thetires are pneumatic and it runs as easy as the best buggy aud ‘‘pulls’”’ any sort of hill; The cost of such a machine is $750. Statesville may not lead the van guard of progress, as some of our sister cities claim, but she always getsin the push and you can’t lose her. See eS ay Deaths of Two Little children. Friday afternoon, Wr.and Mrs. J. D. Cochrane lost their little child, 21 months old. It had suffered much and death came as a relief from pain. Rev. J. H. Pressly conduct- ed the funeral services, the inter- ment being at Oakwood. On Friday afternoon the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Jno, W. Marshall died of scarlet fever. The remains were interred in Oakwood Saturday morning. These sorrowing parents have the sympathy ofall their friends in their bereavement. Mocksville Times, 19th: D.

THE HOLLAND CASE, Mr. C.S Holland, Prominent Citizen of Olin Town- ship, Sent to Jail by Judge Bord and Fined $1,000. lrecess the jury in the case of Unit ‘ed States vs. I. C. and C. S: Holland, | who were indicted in the Federal Court for removing spirits, ed a verdict Holland and a conviction as to C. S. {Holland. Judze Boyd refused to jallow the defendant to vive bail for | his appearance from day to day un- |til the judgment of the court was ; rendered, although a $10,000 bond | was tendered, but temporarily or- dered him to jail. Mr. Holland was committed to jail and remained there until the next day at noon when he was taken to tke court room for judgment. Judge Boyd fined him $1,000 and the costs, which he promptly paid. The judge also sentenced him to jail for ten months but the imprisonment was suspend- ed on payment of the fine and costs. Mr. Holland is a man of character and property in the county and his friends (he has a great many} were very indignant because he was hu- miliared by being sert to jail before judgment in bis case, for there was not the slightest intimation that he would not be present when wanted, and bond inany sum was offered The fine. too, isa very heavy one, acd we have heard Judge Boyd se- verely criticised on account of it. The universal opinion is that the case against Mr Holland was a weak one and that but for the mistakes which Judge Boyd made in _ recapit- ulating: the testimony to the jury he would never have been convicted. The facts are briefly as follows: The three government witnesses, Messrs. Britt, Bradshaw and At- well testified that they visited the distillery of I. C. Hollandsome time last January. On their way they passed the house of C. S. Holland andin his barn yard they saw a wagon and team, which the driver was unhitching. They did not know tbe owner of the wagon or the team nor did they recoguize the dri ver and did net get closer toit than 150 yards. They discovered wagon tracks leading trom this place(i.e. — 150 yards from the wagon) in the direction of the distillery, and from the distillory toa point near where the illicit spirits were (ound, but they did not say or intimate that the wagon tracks seen by them were made by C.S. Holland’s wagon or by the wayon seen by them in his barn yard. This was all the eyi- dence ayainst C. S. Holland, and the same evidence might have been pro- duced against any other good citizen of Iredell county who owned a ' lowed a neighbor to unhiteh in bis Holland’s house on avother person’s land. The court in charging the jury quoted the evidence of the gov- ernment’s witnesses as though they nad sworn that they tracked Hol- land’s wagon from his harn yard to tbe place where the whiskey was found, but no witness swore any- thing of the kind. een REGISTRARS INDICTED. Mr. h. UL. Rine. of Shiloh Township, One of Them.—Counter Indict- ment of Mr. W. A. Wright. the Foreman of the Federal Court Grand Jury. The Federal Court grand jury last week indicted the following revis- trars for alleged deprivatior of citi- zens of their rights: Robert L. tine, of Shiloh township, Iredell county; John Powers, Buncombe; C. M. McCorkle, Newton; John Mur- phy, Salisbury; H. M. Rhine, Burke. The witnesses against Mr. Robert L. Rize are Dolph Lavrence, Chas. Little, Henderson Connorand Pink Harris, colored, and W. A. Wright, white, of Shiloh township. The case, if it ever comes to trial, will probably be tried at the next term of the Federal Court in April, 1901. Wedo not know how it is with the cases against the registrar. froin other counties, but the indict- ment against Mr. R. L. Rine is po- litical persecution, He obeyed the law aud thereby incurred the enmi- ty of Mr. Wrmght, a Republican worker of his township, who was the foreman of the Federal Court grand jury. ob Rine is one of the truest of Shiloh Democrats, and ‘‘the bays”’ from State Chairman Simmons and County Chairman Hartness down, will stand by him. All of the Dem- ocratic lawyers of the county have deen retained by Chairman Hart- ness to defend Mr. Rine. Of course our lawyers gladly give their ser- vices, for Democratic lawyers are among the party’s most patriotic members. Monday a warrant c.arging W. A. Wright with inte:'-ring with Mr. Rine in the performance of his duties as registrar prior to the Aug- ust election was issued by P. C. Carlton, Esq. It is charged that Wrigkt threatened Registrar Rine with prosecutions if he did not reg- ister negroes who had no right to vote and that he indulged in loud and boisterous language to Rine, while the latter was in the perform- ance of the duties of his office. Wright was arrested Tuesday by Deputy Sheriff R. P. Scroggs. Yes- terday was the day set for trial, but Squire Carlton continued it until Friday, November 2nd, at100’clock, for the defendant, so that he could get his witnesses. The Democratic lawyers of the county represent the prosecution and the defendant has retained Hon. R. Z. Linney and J. F. Gamble, Esq., for the defense. There are quite a number of wit- nesses for the prosecution and the defendant will also probably have several. Retreats at Last Weck’s Speeches. Senator Pritchard and Hon. R. Z. Linney spoke here Thursday night. Pritchard made a fair speech, with the usuai stock Republican argu- ments, mostly ‘‘prosperity,’’ ‘‘full dinner pail’’ and ‘‘grand war rec- ord.*’ Linney’s speech was in his own peculiar style, full of broad wit aad abuse. The colored breth- ren and the ‘‘revenuers’’ liberally applauded their champions. Messrs. J. R. Blairand J. L. Ren- dleman, Democratic and Republi- can nominees for presidential elec- tors from this district, held a joint discussion here Friday night. Blair’s speech was able, argumenta- tive and convincing. Rendleman’s was rather too sophomoric and flow- ery with too much tendency to fly- ing the track on main issues. Ren- dleman is entirely outclassed and is uvable to handle his opponent, The discussion was like a fight between a Well-known and The Landmark's Estimate of Mr.Sim mons in 1805 In its issue of November 11th. 1898, Tbe Landmark said: “Chairman Simmons, to Last Friday just before the noon /energy and wisdom the party is in- | debted for its success at the polls is entitled to the return- | thanks and lasting gratitude of the of acquittalas to I.

It was under his mas- terly generalship that the Demo- crats won a brilliant victory in 1892, and the Landmark is proud of the fact that, realizing then his eminent fitness for the position, it urged his election as State Chairman this year. He made no mistakes. His light was well directed and fiercely aggressive from the outset. He had the assistance of able lieuteaants— none of them abler and more clear- headed than Mr. Jas. H. Pou—but on Mr. Simmons, of course, fell the responsibility of directing the fight. “‘Let us hope that when the party has honors to bestow, it will not forget these men to whose leader- ship it owes so much.”’ eceeesanen New Advertisements.

The committee alsohas an under- standing with the party organiza- tions in the Southern States to see io it that their people do not deal with such men. The manufacturers in Indiana sell largely to Southern castomers, and the withdrawal of that trade would in many instances tmeke all the difference between great protit and great less. South- ern people, in fact, bave built up lenriched many men, not only -in indiana, but allover the North, who ‘ver have a good word to say of them. ‘Yhere is no reason whatever why Democrats outside of Indiana should not follow the example. The Me- Ninley corporations and employers und those who called a halt upon them meant business and were in o position to do what they said. A large manufaeturer who has many desirable customers who are Democrats had every room of every department of his establishment plastered with pictures of McKinley and placards of" Vote forMcKinley.”’ A Democratic customer came to town to buy and met al! this star- ing him in the face whichever way beturned. He was accompanied oy the proprietor himself, who was overwhelmed with amazement when ihe visitor turned to leave and said he guessed he would not buy any- hing.

Four years ago the Studebakers, .be vreat carriage and wagon mak- voted their whole force for MeNKinley.

A little hint came up from Texas that rot another wagon would be ordered from that State. The McWinley pictures disappeared auc the men have since been let aloue, every railroad in Iadiana receiv- ed warning tokeep out of politics; that if they had any money to give to campaignjfunds they would havo it to pay in taxes and at the first op- portunity their assessments would be raised.

J. Bryan seldom makes a speech that some one doesn’t ask him, ‘‘How about North Carolina?”’ These questioners sre much more interested in the negro’s vote than they arein the negro himself, but ly understand the negro question a it applies to the South. South through other than partisan yiasses do understand the question. the following from the Praetical Farmer, one of the leading agricul- tural papers of Pennsylvania: *‘Doubtless there is a class of in- telligent farm laborers in the North, but for the Southern conditions there is no farm labor that can com- pete with that of the negro. Treat- ed fairly and justly and paid his waves promptly in cash, he will be- come attached to your interests and serve youfaithfully. Wehave work- ed negroes as slaves and free men, and while there are certainly many vicious and worthless negroes in the South the raceas a class are the best farm laborers we know. The evilof the race has been largely brought out by the miserable white men who have tried to use the negro for their sellish ends, and they have wrought immense evil to the negro. Tke Southern people will never to!- erate the negro as a political power, but will care for him, educate him and make him the bappiest farm la- borer on earth, ifthe politicians will let him alone.” Every one who knows anything about the South and the relation: between the white and the black: man kuows how near the truth this Pennsylvania editor came when he wrote the lines we quote, and knows that as far as the negro’s material prosperity is concerned his greatest obstacle has been the folly he has shown in permitting himself to be used as a tool by scheming politi cians, thus coming into antagonism with the best element of the people among whom he lived and upon whom he was mainly dependent for work and favors when he needed favors.

This is the first time I have ever heard a Democrat contending that another Democrat sheuld not be elected to office because he is a lawyer.

If the Republicans carry it, the threat made by Mr. Pritchard may be carried into effect and a Force bill may be placed upon the people. All men who favor white rule in North Carolina, as all men whoare opposed to trusts, imperialism and the gold standard, ought to exert themselves to elect nine Democrats to Congress from this State iv order to prevent the wrong threatened. Senator Pritchard has mot ec cepted the amendment or acquiesced in it. He proposes to stick to the pegro and unless he can keep the 120,000 negroesin North Carolina voting he threatens to punish the plain proposition. Weare mistak- en in the spirit of the manhood of North Carolina if they do not resent the proposition to humiliate the State in the interest of demagoges who have no hope of office except by the negro vote. =_e=> Republican Fake Election Bets. New York Telegraph. Democrats willing to -back their political opinions with their money are beginning to tire of the chase after Republicans whose contidence, according to national committee press agents, is such they will lay enormous odds on the success of McKinley. They have searched for these liberal layers ut home and abroad, and the result has been uai- formly the same. Everywhere there appears to be a vocal willingness, but the money is not forthcoming. Comes a rumor from Wall Street that Blank, of Blank & Dash, is of- fering four to one and five to one that McKinley will carry tbe coun- try. ‘Just left’’ or ‘‘all taken’’ is the word when Democratic money ap- pears, but next day in Republican papers appears a record of a bet, coupled with a statement that ‘‘the amountof the bet could rot be as- certained, but it is supposed to run into thousands.” According to men who bet from judyment on the elections, two and a half to one on McKinley is the top betting, and very little big money is offered at these odds. Not more than £1,000 was actually wavered on Saturday, and that was ut the office of Bell & Co. ‘‘There are other bets,’’ said a bookmaker yesterday, ‘and the odds announced may reach as high as three to one, but those bets are not looked on seriously They are re- warded as in the nature of ‘compli- mentary bets’ for the purpose of in- tluencing opinion.

The Re- publicans have announced that the shortest price they give is two and a half to one, money in sight.” nt How The Strike Was Ended, News and Observer. When the strike in Pennsylvania first occurred, the Republican or- vaus published far and wide that it had beer instigated by tke Demo- cratic managers who had oeen in se- cret conference with Mr. ditchell. Now that the miners have won the strike, those Republican papers claim all the credit for Hanna and the Republicans. There is no trath that either party had anything to do with the strike. Mr, Hanna is in touch with the coal trust and he said to them: ‘‘Look here, boys, the Homestead strike defeated Har- rison. If youdon’t put an end to this strike, Bryan will be elected. Then where will you be? He will but at that we see uo in the Philippines. togo nofurther. A man jumped on a chair and cried out: *‘How did you get your money ?” ‘“T earned every dollar of it by honest labor,’’ said the Senator, ‘and Iam paying my employes the highest wages in their lire paid in the United States.” “No, sir,’’ said the man, ‘‘you did notearn it. You made it off iabor and through trusts you formed.” “How about the coal miners?’ yelled another. ‘The miners’ strike will be settled tomorrow,’’ came like @ flash. ‘‘And when President Mitchell comes back, ask him who secured the 10 per cent. advance for the miners.”’ To this a hundred voices answered that he had made the cperators’ grant the 10 per cent, raise for the purpose ofcoercing the miners to vote fer McKinley, and that they would be tired as soon as the elec- tion was over. Once again the Senator tried to speak, “‘every dollar I ever had I—,”’ ‘Stole!’ shouted 1,000 men in the crowd, “How about the seamen you threw out of jobs?’’ was shouted. “l pay my seamen the highest wages: they are all working too.” “You cut down the pay of your ‘lonyshoremen in Cleveland.” “That is a lie: my ‘longsboremen are making *5 a day. Ask Mr. Keefe, president of their union, if you don't believe me.”’ “You're a scab!"’ shouted the dis- turber. “You're another,” Senator. “How about Hay?” asked a man. “How about straw?’ answered the Senator, and the crowd laughed. “How about Webster Davis?” asked somebody. “He got $125,000 for what he did. He went to the Boersand represert- ed himselfas Secretary of State. He proved himself a traitor to his country as well as to his party.” The crowd jeered and shouted: “Get off the earth!’” “Throw Han- naout!’ ‘How about the full ¢ ner pail?’” “Bryan is our friend!” Fianna managed to say a few words at intervals. Al! accounts agree that Roosevelt is lacking in dignity and inakes a bad impression—in marked con- trast with the superb bearing of his Vice Presidential antayonist, Gen- eral Stevenson; while of Hanua our Washington correspondent writes: “The startivg of Boss Hanna upon astumping tourof the Northwest shows who is bossiag the Republi can campaign, as it is well known that Mr. McKinley did all he could to stop the speech making of Hanna, because of his knowledge that it was hurting him badly. — +t 6D ue = Banks Accumulating Gold. ’ answered the ‘i- Baltimnere Sun. The Bank of France now hoids $155,000,000 in gold, an increase of $75,000,000 over this date last year, and the largest quantity of void the bank has ever held. Much of this has been drawn from Russia. The bank's policy is to get all the gold it can and part with none. This may be said to be the policy of the other great national banks of Europe, but some of them can be tempted by high interest rates. Toe Bank of Env land, for example, parts with ygoid, losing nearly $7,000,000 in the past week. Berlin, on the other hand, has rone to spare, owing to the con- tinued financial stress. A well- known German banking bouse de- clares, says The Railway World, that “any attempt to draw gold fram Ber- lin vould result in practically dlack- listing the Berlin correspondent to the American importer attempiing the transaction. The relative con- dition of the several foreign banks and therecent distribution of oid reserve in Europe point to Paris as the quarter which must eventually bear the strain if the American drain of gold grows heavy.”’ oo — Teddy Roosevelt’s reception in Kentucky was rather lukewarm.

A man, however, may succeed in bus- iness and accumulate millions, but this is no part of statesmanship. A man, moved by his own gocd will towards mankind, may dispeuse mil- lions to the poor and needy, but this is not one of the constituent ele- ments of statesmanship. A man may be moved by love of couatry to support and defend its interest, but this does not constitute statesman- ship. Wealth, philanthropy and patriotism may all be incidents of the life of the statesman, but cannot be constituents. It seems, therefore, to follow that either Mr. Simmons or Col. Waddeli, who are both statesmen, should be elected Senator. *“DeWitt’s Little Early Risersare the finest pills I ever used.”"—D. J.
