The chil- dren were playing in front of the house with companions when they became engaged in a childish dis- pute and Margaret struck Carrie a harmless blow with astick that she carried. Carrie burst into tears and ran into the house. Margaret, already penitent, called to her, but the child paid no atten- thon. She went to the second floor of the house, took the bottle of acid, held it in her outstretched hand and cried to her companions that she was going to drink it and die. She died in agony two hours later. ——- -_>--_— rhe Bell ofthe Alamo Found Charleston News and Courier, The bell of the Alamo, it is an- nounced, has been found, and is now in the possession of Miss Adina De Zavalia, of San Antonio, president of the Texas Daughters of the Re- public. “It was discovered three months agoat Goliad when offered for sale as old iron by Moses Oppen- heimer.

Some excavating had been done there to move the building back for the pur- pose of ‘widening the street to make room for a trolley road. The box was battered and showed that it had been in the earth for a long period. He put itaway in his safe and tried to find its owner, but was unsuccessful. He examined its contents the other day and found a batch of United States government bonds, which are said to be worth $75,000.

Horrible Death of 6 Young Man et Jugtowna. ———— Lincoln Journal, 31st. A most horrible accident occurred at Jugtown Thursday night of last week. Max Fulbright, a well known young man of that place, had been very ill with typnoid fever. On Thursday he became worse. In his delirium he cursed and raved, de clarivg th: he was going ‘‘straight tohell."’ He tried to choke him- self to deat with his hands. Fail- ing in this. he caught a paper from the floor and crammed it into his throat. 1: took several men to bold him in bed. one of them being his brother, $0} Fulbright. The dying man, raving likea maniac, caught his brother »y the arm and bit a piece out of it, which he chewed and swallowed. After hours of agony and frenzy. with horrible curses peuring from his lips, the young rman died. The most singular thing about the whole matter is the fact that young Fulbright was a steady,sober, moral and amiab’e man and was never known tocnrse. He was about 39 years of aye and leavesa wife, wao has our sympathy. The brother, who wag bitten by the dying man, is suffering greatly with bis wounded arm, which is greatly swotlen and inflamed. Seen el The Full Dinner Paii. New York Journal. Let us as-eme that the working- man who pu’s in eight or ten hours of exbausti:y Jabor a day is really able under itepublican “prosperity ” to put two or three sandwiches. @ wedge of pic and a pint of coffee in- to a tin bucket. Under those conditions, the con- tents of the ‘Full Dinner Pail’ may be worth fifteen cents. Mr. John D. Rockefeller bas an incom» of about $40,000,000 a year. Thai is over $130,000 per working day. Mr. Rockefeller’s daily income would fill the dinner pails of 900,000 workmen.

Mr. Harvey bas a pen about ten by twenty feet end a yard of the same size, enclosed by a tight board fence six feet higb, for his minks. The building azd the fence are set on an eighteen-inch-thick stone foundation, placed two feet below the surface to preveat the animals from burrowing out and escaping. He has captured six females and one male from the marsh at the south end of Rock Lake. He says: “The moment I put a rabbit in the yard that large male, even though he is in the pen, scents him and immediately gives chase. He usually succeeds in tiring the rabbit out in about fiye minutes. Then -he attacks him oa the neck, biting his jugular vein. When the rabbit ceases to kick, this old fellow stretches him out full length and sucks out the blood. When he has had his fill, he leaves his prey and the rest of the minks come and tear the carcass to pieces and eat the flesh. They almost invariably fol- low the method J have described. Chickens they treat in the same way. Theold male kills them, sucks out the blood and leaves the meat to the rest. “T began last October. J scaught most of the minks in regular steel traps. It breaks their legs, but as a rule, they limp but fora week or two. That little one’s leg was al- most off when 1 caught'her, the paw hanging by a piece of skin, but with- ina month she was able to run around as wellas any of them. “They are as nimble on their feet as mice, climbing up the corners of the pen, and under the eaves. have a board on top of the fence to prevent their getting out. These animals have great flattening pow- ers; a good sized mink can crawl through a horizontal crack an inch wide. They are very fond of fish and frogs. If I place a number of frogs in the tank you ought to see them come out and jump into the water. And the strangest thing is that they take out every frog and carry it into the pen before they eat one.” Mr. Harvey is contident that his minks will bring him good returns in the near future. ne Pope Expecting Death. Rome Correspondence of Philadelphia Record. The remarkabie admission that he considers the end of his long career at hand has been made by Pope Leo XISL. The Pope bas always been noted for his interest in the popular sup- erstitions of the people of Rome. One of them is that the death or disasters to the Kings of Piedmont portend similar happenings to the Popes of Rome. Policy players bave been playing heavily at the government lottery, staking large sums on the numbers that correspond to King, Pope and Death. It was bardly expecte that Leo XIII himself would ailude to the subject, but this he has done. The occasion was the reception for members of the noble guard. Among those present was the nephew of Cardinal Rampol, Marquis Perana, a young man who rejoices in friend ly intercourse with the Pope. “Your Holiness.’ he said, ‘will, we trust and pray, be spared to us for many recurrences of vour ono- mastic feast.” “Tucky if I see one of these re- currences; but there is no likelihood of it,’’ replied the Pope. ‘‘You know the strange fact of coincident @isaster that the populace of Rome allude to in their popular supersti- tions. Humbert is gone and my turn ought to be near.” Another evidence of forecast in 2ome is the renewed and exceeding- ly animated discussion regarding the persorality of the next Pope. The reconciliation party has a pew and powerful candidate in the person of Cardinal Sarto, patriarch of Venice, who is marked by his ex- treme independence and his pru- dence in not meddling with outside politics. ——-_--— AnAttempted Assault at Washing- ton. Washington, N. C., Special to Ralcigh News and Observer, 31st. One of the most dastardly deeds in the history of our town occurred early tonight. Mr. George Styron, one of our citizens left his home to make some purchases at a store near by. He left his wife and chil- dren at home, the former seated in the front room. Mr. Stryon had not been gone five minutes before some one entered by way of the front door and advanced towards Mrs. Stryon, who was sit- ting with back towards it. The man placed his hand on her shoulder. At first she thought it was ber bus- yand, but looking around discovered that it was another man, wearing amask. Mrs. Stryon commenced.to scream. The wretch caught her by the thruat and threw her violently to the floor. At this she screamed so loudly that the man became frightened, and as he heard neighbors coming to her rescue he fied. After his escape Mrs. Stryon found a mas« lying on the floor. She also discovered that her hands were smutty. Her assailant evi- dently must bave been a white man, although Mrs. Stryon says he was black. ‘As he left the house he was heard to say: “D— you! Vl get you some time.”’ There is no clue as to the guilty party. . ,all they took when feeling dull anc i bhad with headaches and other aches. | You only need a few doses of Gree2's | August Flower, in liquid form, imake you satistied there is nothin: \serious the matter with you.

He is very much opposed to Bryan and Stevenson. Richard Olney, the moss noted inember of Mr. Cleveland's cabinet, 2d Wilson Bissell. the former Post- master General, willsupport Bryan. The Cleveland Democrats seem to be coming back. E. B. Jones and Ex-Lieutenant Governor Doughton have retired ‘vom the race for the Congressional nomination in the Sth district. The chanees are that J. C. Buxton, of Winston, will be aominated. Gov. Beckham, of Ky., declared in speech at Frankfort, the other cay that the Republicans had made ihe killing of Goebel an issue and that the Democrats proposed to tight it out on that issue. “Six weeks ago,”’ says the Albany Argus, “the Republican campaign inanagers were claiming New York State as sure for McKinley. Today they are panie-stricken, and Mark Hlanna has announced that he will remain in New York throughout the campaign. Six weeks ago Hanna expected to remain in the east only until September 1. But the situa- tion has changed in the eyes of the trust campasen managers, and they realize that the vreat common wealth of New York is likely to repudiate the party of the trusts, imperialism and Plattism on November 6.”’ - - 2 - ee bryan Prevents Panic By Telling a Joke. Chicago Dispatch, 3d By a trite little joke sprung with cool but perfect deglamation, W. J.

A section of the worn floor gave way, women shriek- ed in terror and men tried to jump over the railing upon the heads of tie packed throng at the rear of the stand. “Hello,” continued Mr. Bryan turning a smiling face upon ‘the svared people. “That can’t be o lvemocratic platform. There are no bad planks in that. Come now stand suili won't you. If you stand to- gether xhere vou are you will beall “cht. If you stampede the thirg vill fall on you,” and he laughed as i it Was an every day occurrence. His self-assurance had a quieting elect upon the crowd.

Some of the friends of young Massey would have taken his wife from her father by force but he objected to such proceedure and this alone say- ed trouble. The statement has been made that the wife, whois but fif- teen years of age, had repented of her hasty marriage and was about ready toask the courts for a divorce. From the scene she created yester- day it seems that this statement is a little premature and that both of the young people are still devoted to each other.

Coggins came up and said, ‘‘what are you doing here?”’ Pink Sher- rill said to Coggins ‘‘hold on and I will tell you who she is.’’ Coggins began to swear he would kill Pink Sherrill and drew his pistol, Pink told him to let him alone as he was not madat him. T. B. Neill told them to stop their fuss and go home. Pink started for home, and Jay ask ed him which way he was going. Pink said, “Iam going down the road and don’t you follow me.’’ Jay said, ‘‘I will be d—— if you get Coggins and Coggins shot five times Now as to my placing the white man, Jay Coggins, in the custody of a big burly negro, or placing him in the hands of anyone, isfalse. As to the 25 white men, tnis is another lie out of the whole cloth. There were only 3 white men there at the time we left the house for our consulta- tion as referred to in your paper. Mr. Coggins says he did not consid- er himself in the custody of anyone while we were out consulting. He did not feel himself humiliated in the least, and further, to show you this is false, there is not a negro in Davidson township by the name of Dave Mills. Jay Cogyins says I did not put him in the custody of a ne- gro. I regret to have to make this statement, but nevertheless it is true.

The drought continues in our section.gThere has been scarcely no breaking of land for wheat except by those who have the disc plow. Of course the time has passed when rain could be of benefit to crops, ex- cept potatoes and turnips. It is hard to estimate the extent of dam- age to corn and cotton. Very late planted corn will not make the seed, and upland corn generally is so poor that most of it will be cut up and used as fodder, where it is not dried up. Cotton is injured worse than it looks to be. Many of the bolls as they open show blasted cotton. The crop is the smallest here for many years. nirs.

Jones Vote for Bryan. mA James Cr eclman’s Letter to New York Journa! from Soledo, Ohio August gist. A thorough tour of Ohio convinces me that Mr. Bryan will carry the State in November. The Republican cry of Prosperity ia answered by the spectacle of moititudes of idle workmen wander- ine through thisrich commonwealth va nly searching for employment while scores of factories and mills clcsed by the trusts stand as monu- ments to the brutal and disastrous sy~tem which McKinley ism has built up Thecost of living bas increased ari workingmen are feeling: the pinch of distress. 3 i : Onty an bour ago | talked with in- te ligent, skilled mechanics who w. re earning $2.50) aday a year ago, ar | who are now working in the hot sv2 with a pick and shovel on the nes Toledo Centennial for $1000 dpv. Here in Northern Ohio there ar: more men out of work than at anytime since 1893. The trusts have di charged thousands and thousands of trained men in order to limit pro- duction and keep prices Up. fet no one deceive himsell about the working men of Obio this year The “full dinner pail” argument bes little effect upou men who see their fellows obliged to abandon their trodes and beg for work on the pub- roads or starve. Organized and unorganized labor iy Ohio is united against Hanna and McKinley, but the change is not to be found only amorg industrial work- ers. The Gold Democrats have re- turned to the Democratic party throughout the State, and witha few exceptions are working earnest- ly forthe election of Mr. Bryan. ‘Thousands of former Republicans have joined the reform forces. DEMOCRATIC STRENGTH Is MARKED. The indications of increasing Democratic strength in Ohio are million votes in 1896. It is conced- ed by the leaders of both parties that the whole vote this year will be | less than $50,000. aad The old sentiment that once ID- spired the Ohio Republicans bas vanished. Nothing remuins but the cold, sordid argument of Hanna and the palpably false talk about the “full dinner pail.” In the decrease of the total vore McKinley will probably lose two votes for every vote lost for Bryan. The Democatic party is united and full] of enthusiasm this year. | It has peen'many years since the Ohio party was so harmonious as it is now. There is no sulking, no grumbling: all are for Bryan. c is There is another feature 1D Ohio politics which disheartens the Re- publican leaders. Mayor Jones !s to be nominated for Congress by peti- tion and then indorsed Sy the Demo- crats. His power‘ul iniluence will be felt when he takes the stump against imperialism. Mr. Jones will not take a Democratic pomina- tion because he does not believe in parties, but it is the intention of the Democrats, with the warm approval of Mr. Bryan and the Democratic National and State committees, to indocse his candidacy. = _>e> A Baptist Preaesher's Advice.

All the supporters of our cause in the August election are invited to participate in the primary. For! many years the conviction ba< come | home to many of the best thinkers of our country, that the election of Uuited States Senators should be committed directly to the people— the source of all political power. In the absence of the necessary and needed constitutional change the primary alfords the nearest p. ssible approach to an election of Senators by the vote of the people. “{T hereby announce myself acan- didate for United States Senator and ask your support in the primary. My record as a citizen anda Demo- tion,one of the ablest and most pop- ular ministers of the Baptist Church in North Carolia sent the editor of the News and Observer this mes- sage by Mr. W. M.

Mr. McKin- ley carried Ohio by only 48,497. "The signs of a great Democratic yietory this year have alarmed Mr. Hianna, and there is evidence of a bold Republican plot to steal the electorat vote of Ohio for McKinley. Secretary of State Kinney has ig- nored the regular Democratic county committee in appointing the parti- san boards of election in Jefferson, Montgomery. Highland, Warren, Sandusky and Union counties. These county boards appoint the local elec- tion officers. Four years ago 4/r. ijanna used the election machinery of the State to appoint Gold Demo- coats who were supporting McKin- ley to guard the interests of Bryan, This year he insists upen putting Democrats in the county boards of election against the protests of the recular Democratic organizations. Phere can be only one purpose ia view, The Republicans realize the aiWiculty of carrying Ohio for Me- Kinley and are openly preparing for wholesale fraud. In every ceunty I have visited this week Democratic eains are reported, not by politic- inns alone, by the shopkeepers, work ingmen, lawyers, editors, and farmers. CINCINNATI GERMAN VOTE FOR BRYAN, In Cincinnati there has been a marked movement of the German votes to Bryan, Imperialism is bitterly opposed in all the German Gistricts. How great the change will be it is impossible to estimate, as the Cincinnati German is taci- turn, but I have myself talked with several intelligent German Republi- ens there, who assured me that they would vote for Mr. Bryan and that they know of many others who had left the Republican party this year. Prominent Gold Democrats like Judge Smith and Harland Cleveland, who are sow supporting Mr. Bryan, say that nearly allof the former Cold Democrats in Cincinnatti will yote against imperialism and trusts this year. Even ex-Judge Harmon, who was Attorney General in Presi- dent Cleveland’s Cabinet, is sup- porting the Democratic ticket. Every man I spoke to in Cincinnati mentioned Republicans who would vote for Mr, Bryan. It is practically certain that either Hamilton county will be carried by Bryan or that the Republican plur- ality will be less than 5,000. Changes to Bryan are reported in most of the factories. The Demo- cratic increase is not so noticeable in Southern Ohio as in the middle and northern counties. it must be remembered that last year Mayor Jones, of Toledo, stand- ing as an independent candidate for Governor, received 106,721 votes. The Jones vote will settle the elec- tion in Ohio this year, That is ad- mitted by everybody. Mr. Hanna declares that the Jones Democrats wiil vote for Bryan and that the Jones Republicans will vote for Mc- Kinley, in other words that the Jones movement will disappear this year. The truth is that a’ great majori- ty of the followers of Mayor Jones, like their leader will support Bryan, and are openly advocating his cause now. About 60 percentofthe 106,- 721 Jones voters are Democrats and Populists. This part of the Jones vote is undividable for Bryan. The other 40 per cent were Repbblicans. JONFS LEADERS ARE SURE OF IT. lL have been assured by leading members of the Jones movement that a great majority of the Jones Republicans will vete for Bryan. This information comes from men who have been heretofore Republi- cuns. The blind Hanna newspapers may jeer at this statement, but the facts are plain and easy of acertainment. Zemember that in 1892 Mr. Cleve- land came within 1,072 votes of car- rying Ohio. Four years later, with an unpartralied panic, with thous- auds of Gold Democrats supporting the Republican ticket, with millions of dollars in Hanna's hands, with the Cleveland Administration working tooth and nail against Bryan, witha disorganized Democratic party and a bankrupt Democratic campaign treasury, Mr. McKinley carried his own State by only 48,497 votes. fo accomplish this result a vote was cast, the like of which is with- out record. . Mr. McKinley received more than a hundred thousand more votes than were ever cast for a Presidential election and will try to use it to overwhelm the Democracy with a solid negro vote in November. Be on your guard and don't let them do ita) If we printed the uname of this preacher it would be recognized in every township in North Carolina, lfor he is known all over the State. widespread panic} Information coming from this source weknew to be reliable, and we warned the men of North Carolina | who, at great sacrifice and after | ctrenuous exertions, had won the yreat victory on the second day of August, to be on their guard and no- tify all the good people that the Re- | publicans expected to secure an en- |dorsement of McKinley's hostility to the South by the solidification of ithe negro vote of the State. Upon the suggestion of this man of God, we gave the warning, not in any spirit of race prejudice nor for the purpose of reviving race troubles, but to preyent them. Because we followed the advice of what we re- gard the first Baptist preacher in the State—advice that was approv- | ed by our judgment—certain McKia- jley supporters have charged that ithe News and Observer has been iguilty of a “breach of faith,’’ and are seeking to destroy the influence of this paper upon falseexparte statements, purposely misrepresent- ing the utterances of the News and Observer, The Democratic party in the State really owes more to the venerable Baptist divine for exposing the in- tention of the Federal oftice-holders than to the News and Observer. His message was an inspiration of anote of warning that, we believe, will prevent that solidification of the negro vote comtemplated. —_ oo The Senetorial Primary. Raleigh News and Observer, A subscriber asks us to print the plan under which the Senatorial primary is to be held in November. The resolution adopted by the State convention is as follows: “We hereby instruct the State Executive committee to make pro- vision for the holding of 4 primary on the first Tuesday of next Novem- ber for the selection of a United States Senator by the Democratic voters of the State, at which every elector who has voted the Demo- cratic ticket in the State election shall be entitled to cast one vote for one man for the United States Sea- ate, and the candidate who receives the majority of the votes so cast im the whole State shall receive the support of the Democratic members of the Legislature; and if ne candi- date shall receive a majority then the committee shall hold a second primary at which only the two high- est candidates shall be balloted for and the one receiving a majority of the votes cast shall receive the sup- port of the Democratic members of the Levislature. “Provided that ifany third can- didate shall receive at the first pri mary, so held, within 2,500 votes of the second hivhest candidate, then in that event the three candidates shall be balloted for at the second primary, and the one of the threv receiving the highest number of votes, shall receive the support of the Legislature for United States Senator.’ . The State Executive committee will meet on the Sth of September, “to make provision’’ for this pri- mary. It will doubtless perfect ar- rangements satisfactory to all par- ties. This paper sought to have 3 legalized primary for this and all like elections. That would have made it easier to hold this primary which is anew departure in North Carolina. — ee Fitzsimmons to Retire trom the Ring New York Dispatch, 31st.

In an article in the Forum on**The Negro Problem in the South,” Rep- resentative Grosvenor, of Obio, ex- presses the hope that no more States in that section will disfranchise black voters. Mr. Grosvenor adds the following significant warning: “The forthcoming census of the United States will disclose approxi- mately the situation in the South. We shall learn the number of voters, comparison will at once be made, and agitation will at once become manifest in American politics. It will be asad day for the country when there sball come a new politi- cal issue which shall take sides and be organized for political contests along geographical and sectional lines.”” This statement, coming from a Republican Congressman who is of- ten referred to as the spokesman of the administration in the House of Representatives, can have only one meaning. It is, in effect, a declara- tion of the purpose of the Republi- can party to reduce the South’s electoral voteand its representation in Congress in proportion to the number of negro voters disfranchis- ed by the amended Constitutions of Southern States.

It is expected that all returns from yesterday’s primary will be in by tomorrow night. Senator Tillman, with no opposition, returns to the United States Senate. Heis runniay con- siderably behind his ticket. State Treasurer Timmerman and J. H. Jennings, a one armed Confed- erate veteran, are running a neck- and-neck race. Jennings got major- ities in most of the counties, but Charleston gave Timmerman 3 lead of 3,000. The result will probably not be known till the official count. Col. Jim Tillman, a nephew of the Senator, doubles the next high- est man for Lieutenant Governor. There were five running and the vote was very much split up. Tillman and Col. John T. Sloan, of Columbia, will run over with the chances in favor of Tillman. W. D. Evans and J. L. Wharton will run over for railroad commis sioners. Joseph Johnson defeats Stanyarne Wilson for re-election to Congress by more than 3,000. In the sixth district, 4 new man also has a chance. Lieutenant Governor Scarborough, a young lawyer, is a few votes ahead of Con- gressman James Norton. As there isathird man in the field—J. E.

Richmond, Va., Dispatch, jist. William A. Raines, at present a citizen of Stokes county, N. C., has applied to Gov. Tyler for the remo- val of his political disabilities. His case is a peculiarly interesting one. Raines served with gallantry in a Confederate cavalry regiment dur- ing the war. In 18/1, while living in Prince George county, Va.. he was convicted of assaulting a Feder- al soldier and sent to the peniten- tiary for seven years. The attack was made upon the Union soldier, it was alleged, while the latter was :n the act of abduct- ing a pretty sister of Raines. The man started to run, and the ex-Con- federate shot at the Federal, but missedhim. He killed the man’s horse. Raines served his term in the Vir- ginia penitentiary, and subsequent- ly removed to Stokes county, N.C, where he is now a respected citizen. He appeals to Gov. Tyler to remove his political disabilities that he may die without this blight upon his name. The executive wili take the application under consideration. J.C.

As evidence of this fact it is only necessary to state that Nan- cy Hanks was his half sister. He was sired by Happy Medium the sire of Nancy Hanks, His dam was Sallie by Trix. Robert Medium was foaled at Cedar Park Stud, near Philadeiphia, in 1878. He and his mother, Sallie, were purchased by Dr. W. J. Haw- kins at Philadelphia in 1873. The mate aud the young colt started for Ridgeway, but the mother injured herself aboard her car while fright- ened and lock jaw set in. She was taken off at Baltimore and died The colt was shipped to Dr. Haw- kins at Ridgeway in 8 crate. It was necessary to raise him otf a bot- tle and Dr. McKee attributes bis docility to this fact. There never was a horse with a gentler disposi- tion than Robert Medium aad uone more kindly disposed to people, and especially to children. Robert Medium was the sire of more generally useful horses than any well bred animal in the State. A number of his colts have fast records. One of these beat 2:19 in New York several years ago. His best offsprings have been eracker- jack roadsters. Dr, McKee was very much at- tached to Robert and he laments:the loss of the fine animal. Though Robert ‘has virtually been a pen- sioner, for vears past he has receiv- ed the best of attention and treat- ment from his admiriyg owner. There has been a remarkable fatali- tyin Dr. Meckee’s fine stable of horses during the past year. Elec: tra. one of the tinest blooded horses in the State, who attained the fine old age of 30 years, died less than twelve months ago. Her demise was followed quickly by the death of St. Elmo, another splendid horse in Dr. Melee’s stables. SS — ——————— Delaware Will Gofor Bryan. Washington Dispatch, 3ist. Colone!

They have been seen siace on several occasions, but it was not till lately that any trouble was expect ed from the big birds. About a week ago John Van Tuyl, a farmer living a short distance from Pond Eddy, had two young lambs carried away by the eagles, and since then his hired man, Peter Smith, lost a valuable hound-pup in the same manner. Other farmers complain of losing young lambs, and parents have become alarmed, fearing their babies left playing in the dooryard may become the prey of the birds. The result is the young children are not allowed out of doors, unless ac- companied by a member of the fam- ily.

If Bryan is elected these taxes will be speedily repealed, for he will reduce the army and the necessity for the war tax will have Which one, far- mers of North Carolixa? ceased to exist. * ~ * The drift is towards Bryan. In Is06 every men.ber of President Cleveland’s cabinet opposed the Democratic nominee. This year they are all supporting him except Mr. Carlisle. who is still undecided as to bis political course. Throughout the North and West the gold Deimo- crats are supporting Bryan and The Germans and oth- er foreigners are rallying to the sup- port of the Democratic nominees on account of the imperialistic and military tendencies of the Republi- can administration. Every indica- tion points to Bryan's election, and he will be elected if Democrats do their duty. Stevenson, * * a Edward W. Pou, of Johnston coun- tv, the Democratic nominee for Con- gress in the Fourth district, is one of the ablest of the Stute’s younger Demoerats.

He is one of the leading members of the Winston bar, a partner of Hen. Cyrus B. Watson, and one of the party leaders in the State. In full sympatoy with the platforms of the party, personally popular and an able campaigner, he should be elected and he will be elected if the Democrats of the 8th district do their duty in November, The fight in the Sth. will be warm and we believe the Democratic nom- ince tobe the “right man in the right place.” There’s walking ahead of Spencer Blackburn in this year of grace. *.*™ National Committeeman Josephus Daniels went to New York and Washington last week on campaign business. He writes to his paper from Washington that Brysn will certainly earry Maryland, West Virginia, Delaware, Kentucky and tndiana; that his chances to carry New York are more than even; and that Connecticutt and New Jersey, in the East, and Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, in the Middle West, are doubtful States, with even chances for Bry- an’s carrying them. In a private note to the editor of this paper Mr. Daniels writes that the general opinion in Washington is that Bry- an will certainly be elected. * * + It’s a good thing for Chairman Simmons that only Democrats vote in the Senatorial primary, for the Republicans and Populists would do ailin their power against him. In fact, some of them are already try- ing to influence their Democratic neighbors against him and their pa- pers are filled with the most violent abuse of him. There is a good rea- son for this hatred of Mr. Simmons on the part of Republicans and Pop- ulists. Under his leadership their hold on the offices has been broken and the State has been given white rule. The opponents of De- mocracy abuse and curse him, but Democrats are the stonger for Chair- man Simmons on thataccount, “We love him for the enemies he has. made.”’ —_—_—_o oo A fire at Asheboro one day last week destroyed the Asheboro Wood aud Iron Works, two barns and two cars loaded with lumber.

Sareea Horrid Crime in Walnut Cove. 7th, Walnut Cove, Stokes county, today, says: “This town is yreatly stirred up over a horrid crime committed here Tuesday evening on the three- year old daughter of David Boyles, bv James Rierson, aged 17 years, son of Mayor Sanders Rierson. “It appers that Mrs. Boyles went to the home ofa neighbor that even- ing, leaving her two cbiidren—the little girl referred to above, and a six-year-old boy—at the Rierson home, just across the street. “Upon ceturning home, the moth- er heard the little daughter crying, aud went cver to Mrs. Rierson’s to see what was the troubie. She found that the boy, Jim Rierson, had lock- ed the girl up in his mother’s kitch- en and there committed a nameless crime upon her. As Mrs. Boyles went in the boy ran out. The little girl told her mother that Jim prom- ised to give her an apple if she would notcry. The girl’s brother said he heard his sister crying and tried to get in the kitchen, but the door was locked. Rierson made his escape, but several officers have been out looking for him. Telephone messages have been sent in various directions. “Drs. Jones and Fulp, who are at- tending the little girl, report her condition serious. The mother, it is feared, will lose her mind over the sad affair.” peer eth An Advertising Scheme Exposed Salisbury Correspondence, Charlotte Observer sth. Congressman Kluttz is being flood- ed with applications for Senate docu- ment No. 303. Fifty-sixth Congress, and thereby hangs atale. The de- mand for this particular document is caused by the following catchy postal card notice which is evidently being sent out by hundreds, to mer- chants and other citizens ail over the State: “Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 20, 1900, “Dear Sir: Write to your Represen- tative or Senator at Washington, asking him to send you Senate docu- ment No. 303, Fifty-sixth Congress. This document vitally concerns your business and is free. He will be pleased to send it to you without cost. Very truly, (Signed) “R.C. WIGHT.” Naturally the recipient writes at once for so important a document, and Mr. Kluttz’s mailis loaded down with such applications, and he has exhausted his available supply, with requests still pouring in. Senate document No. 303 is simply a memo- rial of the American Baking Powder Association, representing the manu- facturers of alum baking powers of the United States. It contains 52 pages, and isa defence of alum as an ingredient of such powers, an at- tack upon some of the provisions of the proposed cure food measures in- troduced by Senator Proctor and others, and a great roast of the Roy- al Baking Powder concern, and its methods. In other words, this seems to be a cleverly devised plan to advertise and defeud the business of the 50 or more concerns constitu- ting this baking powder association, at government expence, and to use Senators and Congressmen as dis- tributors of their literature. Sr Republican Plans Against Simmons. Scotland Neck Commonwealth, It has gone out that the Republi- cans are already at work trying to formulate some plan whereby they may fabricate charges against Hon. F. M. Simmons, which will prevent bim from serving in the United States Senate as Butler's successor, should he be elected. They will try to show, it is said that Mr. Simmons carried the August election in this State by fraud. They will never show it. It isonly atrumped-up affair to try to intimidate Mr.eSimmons; but it does seein that the Republican party in North Carolina has had ex- perience enough with Mr. Simmons to know by this time that he is not one of the kind to be intimidated. He isone of the bravest and most fearless men in the State, whether applying it politically or personally; ate. eee oe ee oe Among the directors of the bank are ;two Salisbury gentlemen and the y and|Cceshier will also be furnished by known as the Bank of Mooresville and the capital has Mr. ©.

La Fayette’s stay in Alexandria, Virginia, upon his return visit to America, was a succession of fetes, opening with a civic and military parade,’’ writes Mrs. Thaddeus Hor- ton, in the September Ladies Home Journal. ‘The event to which every one looked forward with delight— the grand ball. It was held in the double drawing-rooms of the resi- dence of Mr. and Mrs. Cazenore, which, after English fashion, eccu- pied the second floor. The apart- ments were richly decorated and were throvyved with the elite of Vir- ginia society and many notable guests from Washington City and elsewhere. La Fayette stood in the rear drawing-room and received with the mayor of Alexandia, who introduced the yuests to him. Dur- ing the presentations a youag lady from middle Virginia, a great bel‘e, came upand on being introduced asked La Fayette to kiss her, which he immediately cid. Everybody was shocked at such an exhibition of immodesty on her part and wond- ered how the general could be so un- dignified as to comply with her re- quest. Nothing else was talked of the entire evening but this remark- able occurrence. The ladies all thovght it quite shameful and a dis- vrace to the occasion and blamed both the girl and the marquis. The gentlemen, however, thought La Fayette excusable under the circum- stances,” —_——_—-_>. -——- Two Whiskey Sharps Philadelphia Record. “Folks down our way claim to know something about whis«ey,”’ said a man from Charlotte, N.C., as he gazed meditatively into the empty depths of a tall glass that had con tained a mint julep five minutes be- fore. “‘Among the best judges of red liquor in our part of the country is Colonel Brown. Sometime ago he laid ina barrel of very fine old Bourbon, and inyited Judge Wil- liams and Colonel! Wilberforce to sample it with him. After the first drink Colonel Brown asked _ his yuests what they thought of it. They both looked dubious: ‘Tastes to me as though it had iron in it,’ said Judge Williams. They took another drink. ‘Ido not quite agree with the judge,’ said Colonel Wilberforce; ‘if you will pardon the suggestion, it seems to me | can detect the flavor of leather.’ These remarks greatly worried Colonel Brown, for he felt that his reputation was at stake, in- asmuch as he had declared tbe whis- key to be first-class. He thought over it for two or three days, and then decided to make an investiga- tion. With the aid of 2 colored ser- vant he emptied the barrel. aud what do you suppose he found in tie bottom? A leather covered tack! Believe me, gentiewnan, that—An- other julep? Certainly. sis; cer- tainly.”’ -_- > A Negro Assaults a White Womaa in Rockingham County Winston Special to Raleigh News and Obser- ver. Mrs. Jarrett Patterson, wife of a prominent farmer residing near Price’s Store, Rockingham county, was brutally and criminally assault- ed at her home at 10 o’clock yester- day by an unknown negro. The brute drew a pistol on Mrs. Patter- son and drageved her out in the back yurd where he committed the name- less crime. The husband was in the tield at work at the time, and their son had gone to Price’s. The negro made his escape, but the news spread rap- idly and soon a large crowd gather- ed with Winchesters and went in search of him. Two negroes were arrested this morning, but both proved to be in- nocent and they were released. One was shot before he was captured. When called upon to surrender he ran, whereupon he was fired upon. His condition is not coasidered se- rious. The searching party were out all night, and they caught a ylimpse of the guilty party just before noon to- day, but he ran into the woods. He was being pursued this afternoon between Walnut Gove and Stokes- dale, and there was every reason to believe that he’ would be captured tonight. Mrs. Patterson said the negro was of ginger cake color; wore a white hat andcarrieda grip. Mrs. Pat- terson’s condition is reported to be critical. It is thought the negro i will be lynched or shot to death as soon as the men who are hunting | him are convinced that they have j the right man. It is uaderstood that ; they will have him identified by the ilady upon whom he made the as- | Sault. “After suffering from piles for ‘fifteen years Iwas cured by using two boxes of DeWitt’s Witch Hazel aud nothing the Republicans can do 'gaiye,”’ writes W.

J1e lived in the Santa Catalina | Moun'zins and returned home more | than}. aded down with gold dust. | He fel! passionately in love with his | brother's daughter, 2 handsome gir! ;of 17. She returned ker uncle’s \love and consented to marry him. The priest to whom they applied learning of their close blood rela- j tionship, refused to marry them. iCastro offered as high as $5,000 to ithe Church as an inducemect for |the priest to perform the marriage Then, +> the old widow's story goes, Castro asked what amount of wealth would induce him to marry them. The priest, with the intention and | with the hopelessness of his appeal replied: “The girl’s weight in gold.’ “Now the Mexican maiden, while not being over-buxom, was well to- do in fiyure for one of her age. but Castro did not even pause iong exough to ascertain what her weight might be. He exclaimed: “Good, holy father.’ “Then he ordered scales to be brovgh’, and, begging the wir! to stand ci one side of them, he poured glitterin-r vold dustinto the other side unti! the precious stuff balanced the weiztit of his inamorata. The priest was duinb with amazemect, and it w.:s a long time bofore he re- covered sulliciently to say the prom- ised words that made the twaip one. Castro had won his bride at the cost of 125 pounds of his hoarded gold. He hada snug lot left, however, and the stery is that he lived tong enough to see the time that he would hive taken a great deal less than her «eight in gold for the wile on which his youthful ardor placed sO great a value.’ Dee NES Tried to Kiil Himself to Keep Froin Being Hanged by x Populist. Raleigh Posi, 3th. Archie iXinsaul, the Sampson coun- ty murderer, who was sentenced to pay the death penalty for his crime at Clinto: yesterday. temporarily prolouged his life as the result of a self-inflicted wound, by which he hoped to defraud the gallows. Kinsaui made two eflorts yester- day to shutHe this mortal ceil in ad- vance of the scheduled event, which was toend his earthly career. He tirst tried the morphine route, and was unsuccessful in this attempt, he slashed his throat witha knife: This latter effort may prove successful. The wound was such that the execu- tion could not take place and the governor bas granteda reprieve to the unfor:unate man for another week. The first news of Kinsaul’s at- tempt on lis life came to the gev- ernor yesterday morning in the fol- lowing telegram: “Clinton, N. C., Sept. 7, 1900. “Gov. D. i. Russell. Raleigh, N. C.: *Kinsau! has cut bis throat seri- ousiy and doctors think fatally. Wire instructions. 3. M. Marsupurn, Sheriff.’ Governor Russell then wired to Sheriff Marshburn as follows: “Execution of Kinsaul postponed till Friday. September 14, 1900. Reprieve by mail.” The following special was receiv- its Wilmingtes correspondent. Wilmington, N. C., Sept. 7.—Spe- cial.—Archie Kinsaul attempted suicide twice last night. He took fifteen morphine tablets, but they did not have the desired effect. It is thought te bad atropia in them. Today one hour before time for the execution the condemned man asked ‘the death watch permission to re- tire to his evll, and sleep till the hour to die. He was granted per- mission. Jnan hour the watch went in and found him wallowing in blood with a pocket knife in his hand. He had cut two deep gashes, one on each side of his throat, aad had bled fuily three p'nis. Physicians were called at ouce. They are certain that Kinsaui will recover. Sheriff Marshburn wired the governor, who authorized a teprieve for one week. A letter received here today ad- dressed to Sheriff MacRae, Jailer Millsand other good Democrats. In it Kinsaui stated that he would never allow a Taird Party man to hang him. He claimed that the jail authorities refused to allow Democrats and members of his fam- ily to see him, but admitted Popu- lists who tok advantage of the op- portunity to scoff and jeer at him. It is reported here that feeling is intense at Clinton. The Ponulists are said to bs openly exulting over Kinsaul’s discomfiture, while Demo- crats are hoping that he will die from his wounds. “A Life and Death Fight. Mr. W. A. Hines, of Manchester la.. writing of his almost miracu- lous escape from death, says: “Ex- posure after measles induced seri- ous lung trouble, which ended in Consumption, I had frequent hem- orrhages and coughed night and day. All my doctors said I must soon die: Then Ibegan to use Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consump- tion, which completely cured me. I would not be without it even if it cost $3 a bottle. Hundreds have used it on my recommendation and all say it never fails to cure Throat, Chest and Lung troubles.”” Rezu- lar size 50 cents and $1. Trial bot- tles free at WF. Hall, Jr.’s, Drug Store.

Our candi- |dates represent the interests of the | average man—the farmer, the me- misunderstood. |} “One party favors large standing | jarmies,immense public expenditures | a goyerament of granduer and mag- nificence, high protective taritfs, a Gritish colonial policy, great com- binations of corporate wealth and a centralized zovernment. “The other party favors a contin- uance of the plain and simple gov- ernment of our fathers, public ex- penditures limited tothe actual ne- cessities of the government, tariff taxation for pubiic purposes only, an army for defence and not for con- quest, competition in business free from monopolistic combinations, “An appeal is made by our oppo- vents to our love of country. We heard the specious appeal in 1896, and wealways hear it when our opponents seek the Democratic votes to aid their cause. It isa partisan and not a sincere or patriotic appeal. 1t is based upon false pretenses. The country is not in danger, except from those who are now administering its yovern- ment. We will protect the flag wherever it goes, but we will see that the flag goes only where it be- longs. It shall not be hauled down in disgrace, neither shall it be raised anywhere in dishonor. “The people are opposed to this government acquiring territory which is net to be governed by our constitution. It has no more cona- stitutional right to set up a colonial system than it bas to create a King. The foreign policy of the preseat national administration has been weak, shifty, inconsistent and unpa- triotic, and the best thought of the country—the best students of history—the most iatelligent of Americans are ayaiast it. No right- minded man can defend a President who said in his annual message that it was our ‘plain duty to give free trade to Porto Rico with the United States,’ and then within a few mouths thereafter signed a measure which imposed a tariff duty of 15 per cent. “Tf wise counsels sbali prevail at the Saratoga convention, next week, and we proceed on right lines to pian for victory, instead of inviting defeat, and shall so shape our course and policies as to deserve the sup- port of the great independent and conservative force of this State, we can not only rescue theEmpire State from further Republican control, but can give our electoral vote for our gallant national standard-bear- er—William Jennings Bryan. “While disagreeing with Mr. Bryan in some matters. | need not reiterate that I earnestly desire his election. Our opponents are en- trenched in patronage and power, and tbe struggle to oust them must necessarily ve terrific. The tide, however, is with us. The skies are becoming brighter every day. Let us, then all work together enthusi- astically for the cause, for victery is within our reach.” Lee Ss oa Bryan on Sewall’s Death. Graiton, W. Va., Dispatch, ‘th. Mr. Bryan was visibly shocked upon being informed of the death of Hon. Artbur Sewall, his fellow- candidate on the Democratic na- tional ticket in 1896. He received the news through a message from Mr. Sewall’s son and immediately sent a message of condolence. Re- ferring to Mr. Sewall in conversa- tion today, Mr. Bryan expressed kimself as painecdat the news, and said that Wr. Sewall was a warm personal friend as well as political associate. “TI met him first at the Chicago convention,’ he said, ‘‘and during the campaign had opportunity to become well acquainted with him, and have seen him at intervals since —the last time in Georgia last i‘ebruary. He was a man of strong character, deep convictions and upright life, and he had the courage to stand for his opinions, no matter how great the opposition might be. When the silver,fight divided the par- ty he was one of the very first na- tional committeemen, if not the on- iy one in New England who voted with the silver element of the party. He was a banker, but believed in bimetallism. He had a considerable income, but was willing to pay in- come tax, and was an earnest sup- porter of Democratic principles in general. Could not Eat.

The real tight of the meeting was over the plan for holding the Sena- torial primary. The friends of Chairman Simmons prepared a plan, which was introduced by the writer, in which the conduct of the prima- ries was placed in the hands of two poll holders in each precinct, of dif- ferent views on the Senatorial ques- tion, to be appointed by the county committees on Monday, October Ist. These poll holders will decide all disputed points about the qualifica- tions of voters, receive and count the votes and make their returns to the county committee on jthe same day that the vote for Presidential electors and Congressmen is can- Tke county committee will oi that day, or as soon thereafter as possible, make out two abstracts of the returns for the county and send one of them to the chairman of fhe State committee and the other toa committee of the Stute commit- tee composed of James S. Manning, C. M. Busbee, H. A. London, E. L. Travis. A. D. Watts, James H. Pou and B. S. Royster. This sub-com- mittee will meet in Raleigh on No- vember 20th, canvass the vote and deciare the result. Ifno candidate receives a majority of the votes cast a second primary will be held, in which the two candidates receiying the highest votes at the first prima- ry will be voted for. Major H. A, London, of Chatham, offered as a substitute a plan which had been agreed upon by the friends of the candidates other than State Chairman Simmons.

He lay on his bed in his room in a private Car, and spoke with intense earnestness, eesticulating now and then, and at times leaning on his elbow or sit- ng up as he became deeply inter- sted. His attention was called to a re- ‘ont editorial in The Sun discussing » communication which spoke of his ‘ prosperity’ under the McKinley «ministration. My. “J never was a poor man,’’ he suid, “in the sense of not having enough to live ou. My father oscte Judge, and among the people of his community he was a well-to-do man. Mey share of his estate was about 2.000, which is now the average wealth of our people. I aw better of than I was four years ago. The residential campaign increaaed my ability to make money. I was offer- cdasalary of $25,000 a year as counse! for a mercantile firm, but declined it Imade a contract to deliver a series of lectures for #50,- 400, but found there were unpleas ant features about it, and cancelled the agreement. I wrote magazine articles and got $600 fora series” of Chautauqua lectures. Since 1896 I have given $500 to celleges_ and $1,700 to the Democratic committee | saved asum for my expenses 1n this campaign and paid taxes on that, and everything I own, which »mounts to between $2,500 and =4.000, none of which was earned in consequence of any policy of the MeKinley administration, SPEAKS OF POPULIST SCARE. o ce “One of the objections frequently urged against you. Mr. Bryan,’ Lhe correspondent suggested, is that it is feared that you will surround yourself with a cabinet of Populists Gr of unsafe people.” “J know that,’’ he replied. ‘“‘A tan who does not wish to vote the Democratic ticket, at once com- rrences to construct a cabinet for me and will always put in it the men whom he dislikes most. Mr. Tillman and Mr. Altgeld are favor- ites in this line. But those who in- tend to vote for Mr. Debs always assume that I will select a cabinet told Democrats. It is safe to assume one thing, If f am elected I will be elected for four years and no more, and L wilt select such a cabinet as will make my administra- tion a success. The Cabinet will not be selected with any view to a renomination or re election. I stat- ed four years ago, during the cam- paign, that | would not ask for a re- election. At the proper time I will make that announcement again.”’ NOT OPPOSING HONEST WEALTH. Speaking of his views and policies, Mr. Bryan said that there need be no alarm for them. He does not adhere toa political principle that is not a nundved yearsold. The charge that he is epposipg property interests, he says is folly. In this campaign, he declares, mercenary wealth is Liding behind honest wealth, and honest wealth had best get from the association. “What do you mean by honest, wealth and mercenary wealth?’’ the correspondent asked. ‘‘Honest wealth is honestly earn- 1,” replied Mr. Bryan. ‘“Mercen- ee ary wewlth, or perhaps I had best call it predatory wealth, is what is yvained without giving any return tor it. It is best for people of prop- erty to elect a conservative man. If the policy of legislating for the ad- vantage of the wealthy exclusively is continued indefinitely disturban- ces will finally occur. “The Debs movement is stronger far than it was four years ago. If the policy of injunctions is contin- ued it will continue to grow. My remedy for this is arbitration. Ifa man employs a half-dozen persons he knows each of them. He knows their affairs and when their families are sick and in want. This associa- tion brings sympathy, and there is 10 need to interfere between these employers and employes. But the corporation which employs a thous- end men has a superintendent to set all out of them that is possible. The men are not known as individ- vals. GOOD PROSPECT IN MIDDLE WEST. In reply toa question as to the outlook Mr. Bryan said that in the Middle West especially the pros- pects are good and growing better ull the time. He had been informed, he said, that a member of the Re- publican committee had said that if MeWinley should be defeated his de- ‘eat would likely beas crushing as that of Greely. He considered this 2n important admission. — + oe 4to 1 on Bryan. James Creelman, ina dispatch to The New York Journal from Chica- zo, comments as follows on the La- bor Day parade there: Viewed from a cold-blooded polit- ical standpoint, aside from its beau- t:ful and impressive symbolism, the great labor demonstration in Chica- so Monday was a startling revela- tionof Mr. Bryan’s political strength. Itwas not when Mr. Bryan and Governor Roosevelt spoke that the political inclination of the mdividu- als composing the great multitude could be judged, for an American c.owd is prone to cheer effective ut- terances of any orator regardless of party considerations. But I sat within fen feet of Mr. Bryan and Governor Roosevelt when they re- vieved the 25,000 men. Asthe procession swept past I carefully watched the men who c.eered for Mr. Bryan and those who hurrahed for Governor Roose- velt or Mr. McKinley. Iam speak- ing conservatively whenI say that four out of every five men in that magnificently representative pro- cession cheered for Mr. Bryan. It was a good test and a fair test. Glorious News Comes from Dr. D. B. Cargile, of Washita, I. T. He writes. ‘Four bottles of Electric Bitters has cured Mrs. Brewer of scrofula, which had caused her great suffering for years. Terrible sores would break out on ber head and face, and the best doc- tors could give no help; but her cure is complete and her health is excel- lent.”” This shows what thousands have proved—that Electric Bitters is tke best blood purifier known.

Sold’ by ' THE CAUCASIAN’S POSITION IN, THE NATIONALCAMPAIGN. | | Says Most ofthe Populists Will Sup- apord Bryan and Stevenson But Ad- | vises North Carolina Populists to, Stay at Home on Election Day. | | There has been some curiosity as | to what course Senator Marion But- ler will take in regard to the nation- al campaign this year. In his pa- per, The Caucasian, of last week is the following editorial, which we of course do not approve but publish for the information of our readers: “The Caucasian was very much pained and surprised to see the ac- tion of the National Committee of the People’s Party at Chicago last week. Nothing could be plainer than tbat loyalty to Bryan and loy- alty to the rank and file of the party everywhere demanded that the Na- tional committee in accepting Towne’s declination for the Vice Presidency, should have nominated a Populist to fill the vacancy. This was the only way of guaranteeing to Mr. Bryan the full Populist vote. But, in the face of this clear duty, the National Committee by a more than two-thirds majority, voted to endorse Stevenson, the Democratic Vice Presidential candidate, and Cleveland’s running mate in 1882. Surely every member of the Com mittee knew that he voted todo that which would not be endorsed by the masses of the party. Surely every one of them knew’ that they were voting to do what the Nation- al Convention would not have done, had it been in session. This is an- other illustration of the danger of entrusting great power into the hands of a few politicians, who for one cause or another are often in- duced toshut theireyes to the trust reposed in them by their constitu- ents. “In spite of this betrayal of the People’s Party organization and of this fearful blunder as far as Mr. Bryan’s interests are concerned; yet we believe that the rank and file of the party, wherever self respect will permit them to do so, will condone the great crime against the organi- zation for the time being, and will hold their nose and swallow Steven- son in order to try to elect Mr. Bry- ap tothe Presidency. The Caucas- ian trusts that the voters will take this course wherever their votes are needed and wherever they can con- sistently doit. But in North Caro- lina the Populists are in a position where they would have to swallow very much more in order to get an opportunity to vote for Mr. Bryan. In this State there is between them and that brilliant statesman. Sim- mons and his thieving political ma- chine. There are also a number of redshirt electors. These not many Populists will swallow under any conditions, and The Caucasian has too much respect for the patriotism, forbearance and unselfishness of the Populists of this State to ask them to vote for any man who has been a party to stuffing ballot boxes, deny- ing free speech, defying law and or- der and inaugurating a reign of red- shirt terror and anarchy. If Mr. Bryan were known to endorse these things and the men who are guilty of them there is not a Populist in the State or the nation who would support him. Under present condi- tions the Populists in North Caro- lina and elsewhere who cannot swal- low what is between them and Bry- an, and who may be in States where their votes are not necessary will probably stay at home on the day of election. Tothose who feel it their duty to take this course, The Caucasian wishes to say, do not be discouraged; do not leave the party; hold your peace until this miserable and detestable embarrass- ment is over, then let us proceed to re-organize the party, unite all of the elements that are opposed to bothof the old parties, and then let us hereafter run a straight Peo- ple’s Party ticket for President and Vice President until a majority of the voters are enlisted under the People’s Party banner, the govern- ment is restored to the rule of the people, and the nation redeemed.” Joked Over His Suicide. Chicago Dispatch, Sth. Jacob Kobler was a practical joker during his hfe and when he decided to end his life last night he did so in a way which fully sustained his rep utation. Kobler went to the lake front early in the evening and at the foot of Adams street drove a stake into the ground. Then he took thirty feet of wire and stretching it out tied one end to the stake and with the other he made a loop and passed around his body at the armpits After completing these preparations Kobler placed his broad-brimmed felt hat on top of the stake and in the hat band stuck a sheet of paper, on which was written: “At the end of this wire you will finda man.”’ Kobler waded as far out into the lake as the length of the wire would permit and drowned himself. At midnight James Murray, a night watchmar employed at the dumping grounds and living at No. 104 Elev- enth street saw the stake and hat. He investigoted and found the note and notified the police. Policemen Lehhey and Richards were sent to the lake front and when they saw the wire and read the note they said: “It’s a joke some one is trying to play on us. There is probably a log at the other end of the wire.”’ When they caught hold of the wire and drew it in they were surprised to see that it was attached to the body of a man. A letter disclosed his identity. Kobler lived at 818 West Twenty-tirst street and was 60 years old. He left home on last Monday, leaving a note saying he was going to commit suicide. — Oo Oo Killed Their Sister's Lover. Columbia, #, C., Dispatch, 7th. The body of H. Taber Earle, pro- prietor of a restaurant in Seneca, was found in Seneca river by the sheriff of the county. Mattie Gaines, & young woman, gave directions to the officers where to find her lover’s body. Earle ard the girl were sweet- hearts against the wishes of the young woman’s family. They for- bade Earle entering the house, so the young couple met in a nook by the river. Saturday her two broth ers anda brother-in-law met the young people at the river. The girl and Earle pleaded for his life, but the young men shot him to death and threw the body into the river. The young woman was arrested when Earle could not be found and after tryinz to shield her relatives for’a time she toldthe whole storv.

New York, Sept., 8th.—A Wash- ington dispatch to the Herald is as follows. eo There are approximately 75,578,- 000 persons in the United States, according to the count of the Feder- al census. Sufficient progress bas been made to enable the total popu- lation of the country to be estimated with reasonable accuracy. { The clerks engaged in punching population cards, each one of which represents a person, up to Saturday night, had punched 33,351,122 The schedules from which these cards are punched represented the field work of 23,379 enumerators. This gives an average of 1,426 persons to each enumerator’s district. There were 53,000 of these districts in the entire country. THE TOTAL INCREAsH The population in 1890, according to the census of that year, was 72,- 622,250. This shows an _ increase during the decade of 12,655,750, or about 20 percent. The official figures which will be given out at the con- clusion of the count, will not differ widely from these. Up to the present time the census office force has deen working almost exclusively on returns from cities of 25,000 population and over. The figures thus far available seem to show that the greatest increase has been in the northern states, from Illinois eastward. Four cities in New England show increases at the rate of 27.65 per cent; 5 cities in New York, 35.15 per cent; four in New Jersey, 30.77 per cent.; four in Pennsylvania, 24.67 per cent.; five in Ohio, 32.59 per cent; two in In- diana 46.08 per cent.; two in Illi- nois. 51.99 per cent. The middle Atlantic states do not show such large increases. Onecity in Delaware shows 1454 per cent., one in Maryland 17.15 per cent; and in District of Columbia, 20.98 per cent. In the northwestern states one in Michigan shows an increase of 38.77 per cent.; two in Minnesota, 20.30 per cent; and one in Wisconsin, 39.54 per cent. ACTUAL LOSS SHOWN. The poorest showing is made by lowa and Nebraska. Two cities in the former state show a gain of only > 70 per cent aad one in Nebraska— Omaha—shows an actual loss of 26.98 per cert. Kansas and Missouri do better, one city in Kansas showing a gain of 34.19 per cerft., and two in’ Mis- souri 26.43 per cent. One in Col- orado sbows a gain of 25.44 per cent. In the northern states, two cities in Keatucky show a gain of 24.26 per cent., and one in Louisiana 18.62 percent. San Francisco, the only city counted yet on the Pacific coast, shows a gain of 1464 per cent. It is expected that the increase in population in the rural districts has been rather greater ia the west than in the east, but it is not believed it will be sufficient to offset the high rates of increase in the «reat cites from Chicago eastward. It is too early yet to make an accurate estimate as to where the center of population will be located by this census. The first census, ip 1790, located the center of popula- tion 23 miles east of Baltimore. It has since moved westward at the rate of about 50 miles each decade, almost on the 39th parallel of lati- tude, until the census of 1890 locat- ed it 2 miles east of Columbus, In- diana. Unless there is a larger increase in rural population in the far west than is now expected, it is not prob able that the present census will tocate the center of population any further west than that of 1890, though it is not improbable that it will be shifted to the north. Pre- sent indications are that it will be to the east of Indianapolis, and near that city. BAR a Sit SN Gen, Wheeler Ketires. Washington Special. Brigadier General Joseph Wheeler was placed on the retired list of the regular army today by the ave lim- it. Heis one of the few men who have served under their country’s flag, then fought against it only to again take service under it usd @e- fend it gallantly. “Fighting Joe’? Wheeler was known by his men as “‘A Steam En- sine in Pantaloons.’’ He was such a man that General Sherman referr- ed tohimasone of the “batch of Confederate devils.”’ In civil life General Wheeler was a2 member of Congress from Alabama for seven terms. He kept five secretaries busy all the time. When war with Spain was declar- ed, General Wheeler volunteered un der the old flag. and was made a brigadier general of volunteers. He was sick in his tent when Shafter gave the forward order at Santiago, and was carried toward the firing line on a litter. ‘This he lefe when met by wounded men, and went for- ward on a horse. General Wheeler was the oldest officer on active dutyin the army, yet he climbed a tree to reconnoitre the Spanish lines, to the amazement of his staffand men. After his re- turn from Cuba he was in command of Camp Wykoff. In 1899 he went to the Philippines. A correspondent writing from Luzon, said: ‘General Wheeler is as active at 63 as ke was at the head of the cavalry forees of the Confed- eracy. Hespendsa part of each day in the saddle, and has been in active service since he came here. At Perac last September he charg- ed over the enemy’s breastworks and took the town. He was in the thick of the fights at angeles in Oc- tober, and at Bamban his troops were under fire directly in fropt of the enemy’s trenches. He has marched for days with his clothes wet to the skin and slept on the ground and undergone all sorts of hardships. ”’ General Wheeler was vraduated from West Point in 1859. In the civil war he was under fire in 800 minor engagements, and command- ed troops ia 200 battles. in the Spanish war he was under tire at Las Guasimas, San Juan and El Caney. His retirement is against his own will, but he says he’ll volunteer if the United States should suddenly find itself at war. “‘A man is as old as he feels,’’ he says, in deprecating his retirement, ae I’m no older than I was in Ghe Fight on Mr. Simmons Asheville Citizen.

He worked early and late for) a Democratic victory, and by accom- | plishing this he incurred the hatred | of the bosses of the Republican | party—a hatred sointense that the mention of his name is sufticient to| cause them to gnash their teeth and | cry aloud. i One of the latest manifestations! of this feeling is detailed in a story | sent out from Goldsboro, in which the public are informed that ‘‘the} Republicans of this State, having | come to the conclusion that State | Democratic Chairman Simmons will | be elected to succeed Marion But- ler in the United States Senate, are collecting affidavits in an endeavor to prove that Simmons carried the! recent State election for the consti- tutional amendment and the Demo- cratic ticket by fraud, hoping there- by to keep Simmons from taking his seat if named by the levislature which meets in January next.”’ We imagine that Mr Simmons {s quaking inhis shoes after readiag this terrible threat. Who knows how near he is to giving up the race for the Senate on account of it! Al- ready, no dcubt, he is packing his grip preparatory to moving into private life, realising that when a Republican boss camps on one’s trailit is time to move—maybe. Seriously, however, we feel sure that Mr. Simmons, having heard the talk of these tellows in the past, will pay about as much attention to this outbreak as he did to tkeir howls in the recent campaign. One thing Mr. Simmons may con- gratulate himself upon, and that is the effect of his castigation of those Federal office holders who during the campaign almost deserted their posts for the stump and such other political work as their hands found todo. That he stirred the animals is shown by District Attorney Hol- ton’s resignation of the chairman- ship of the State Executive Com- mittee. The district attorney’s ex- cuse is probably ‘‘pressure of official duties,’’ but back of all this there is no doubt adesire to refrain from laying himself liable again to cen- sure for offensive partisanship of the most offensive kind. He remem- bers the roast Mr. Simmons gave the revenue campaigners, and he has no desire to take another dose. Altogether Mr. Simmons has cause for further congratulations. The fact that he is cordially hated by the Republicans is a strong rec- ommendation. _— ee oe Can't Remember His Name. New York Sun, 7th, In the White Plains Hospital isa man who does not know what his rame is, although he argues lucidly on the currency question; who does not know where his home is, al- though he <an name nearly all of the prominent cities of the United States; who is absolutely ignorant of nearly all of the eveats of his life, although he writes romances with consecutive plots; who can count up toone hundred, but cannot add, multiply, subtract or divide; who cannot conceive that twenty-five ob- jects are more that five objects, al- though he remembers that in his trade as a marble-cutter he had one hundred chisels and can describe their dimensions in inches. Surgeons who have examined him say that in all their reading they have not encountered as strange a case. They say thatthere is some injury to his brain, causing the most remarkable results in twist- ing his memory. He is supposed to be the victim of a stroke of liyht- ning. The man was found lying uncon- scious, with his feet in a poolof wa- ter, during a terrific thunderst orm on August 6. Nosign of a bruise was found on him, save a slight abrasion of the right cheek, caused doubtless by a fall. He is a powerful, handsome man, seemingly about 30 years old. He is five feet 11 inches in height, weighs 220 pounds, and is superbly proportioned. His hair is dark brown, with just a suspicion of curl; he has a heavy brown mustache, his eyes are blue and his features regu- lar. His teeth are perfect. Wken the stranger was asked his name a puzzled look came ta his eyes. a “My name,’’ he said, ‘is William That was as far as he got for weeks. A few days ago, he decided that his name was William P. Car- ter, but yesterday be concluded that Carter was wrong. He said that it did not sound like his name, nor did it look like it written. By dint of careful, patient ques- tioning, the stranger was made to say that he was born in Chicago. He remembers that he wasa worker in marble and repaired some of the statuary at the World’s Fair. He writes romancesin which his characters are natural, but do odd, things. Those who have read his stories say that in figuring out un- ex pected denouements he is nothing short of a genius. He is familiar with the works of most of the standard authors, and quotes passages from them for hours to the surprised men who occupy his ward. -——— ooo A Prowling Panther Terrorizes a Town. Sharon, Pa , Special, te Philadelphia Times. The citizens of Big Bend, Mercer county, are in 3 state of terror over the deprecations of a wild beast sup- posed to be a panther. Last night Jesse Fisher, a farmer, had an en- counter with the beast. He was re- turning home from choppiag wood and carried a double-bitted axe, The animal crouchedin the path in front of him, but hid not attack him, as he yelled and threw his axe around wildly, frightening it away. Ten sheep belonging to Simeon Smith were killed by the animal and partly devoured. Smith also got a glimpse of it. <A party has been or ganized to hunt down the animal as soon as the moon is full. “After sufferiug from severe dys- pepsia over twelve years and using many remedies without permanent good finally took Kodol Dyspesia Cure.

Hall,Jr. Watterson Scores Cleveland Louisville Ky., Dispatch, 7th. In this morning’s Courier-Journal Mr. Watterson editoriaily answers a letter writtea by former President Cleveland cn August 30, 1900, in an- swer toa question by the editor of The Nashville American. The letter Was written because of astatement attributed to Mr. Watterson in The Washington Post that Mr. Cleveland | was scared into writing a repudia- | tion of his famous free trade mes- ! sage of 1897. Mr. Cleveland's an- swer to the Nashville letter was as follows: **Buzzard’s Buy, Mass., Aug. 23 “Tam astonished at the lengrtiis that are reached by Republican | mendacity and so-called Democratic | abuse. Of course, there is nor a) shade of truth in the statements re | ' ' jferred to in your letter of the 20th ! inst. Yours truly. “GROVER CLEVELAND.” Mr. Watterson says his first ro-| tice of the present controversy was the publication of Mr. Cleveland's letterin The Nashville American, Touching the assertion that Mr. Cleveland did prepare a repudiation of his message, Mr. Waterson con- tinues, ufter saying that Cleveland’s first message was practically a straddle on the tariff: “Two years later, however. he thought he knew more than he did know, and he wrote his famous free trade messave of 1887. [fit was not that it was nothing, but it is cer- tainly true that within a fortnicht of its official promulgation, stung by the comments aroused, Mr. Cleveland caused to be prepared for publication inone of tke leading journals of New York a qualifying interview, an interview undertak- ing to see what he did and did not mean, and that upon consultation this interview was finally witbheid. Assuredly Mr Cleveland will not deny this. ‘‘Whether the interview in ques- tion’ was a ‘repudiation’ isa matter both of interpretation and terms. But in view of what followed that rests on no possible controversy, all that is immateriai. “Mr. Cleveland sent Mr. Gorman, of Maryland, and Mr. Scott, of Pennsylvania, to the St. Louis con- vention of 1888, with a cutand dried platform, ignoring bis message of the previous December, ignoring the Mills bill before Congress and re- peating the straddle forced upon us Lat Chicago in Iss4. After an all- day-and-night fight in the platform committee he was put back upon bis message and the Mill's bill, and be- ing defeated he and his friends claim- ed that vhis did it. With that im- pression upon their minds, they ap- peared in the national convention of 1892 with another cut and dried platform. ‘This is the record; it is the his- toric record. It resis not on hear- say. It is referable to no man’s au- thority.’ Nor is it here written down in malace, forwe have nota particle of personal ill will against the ex-President. He has bis weak- nessand his strength. He wasa man of good intentions. He wasa dominant, short-sighted, self-willed man. He came, be conquered, and he destroyed the Democratic party of his day. —_> ee > Platform of the Fourth District Dem- ocrats, Raleigh News and Observer, 7th. The Democratic Convention of the Fourth Congressional District in session in Raleigh yesterday unani- mously adopted the following resolu- tions: “The Democrats of the Fourth Congressional District in conven- tion assembled congratulate the peo- pie of North Carolina upon the splendid + ictory won for permanent good government on the second day of August and invite all white elec- tors in the State to vote in Novem- ber to secure the same good srovern- ment in the Federal Administration under Bryan as is guaranteed in North Carolina under Aycock. “We declare our heart; approval andendorsement of the Democratic State and National platforms, “We call the attention of the eiec- tors of the State to the danger of losing by Federal legislation the fruits of the victory forthe Consti- tutional Amendment, as evidenced by the declaration in the Republi cag National platform denouncing as ‘revolutionary’ the frauchise amendments recently adopted in this and other Southern States, and by the threats of Republican leaders to diminish the influence of the South in the House of Representatives and in the electoral college if they are unable tosecure the abrogation of the suffrage amendments. “We denounce Mr. McKinley, the Rrepublican President, for appoint- ing negroes to offices of trust in North Carolina, and we hereby ap- peal to all white men in North Caro- lina tovote against a party which con- demns our Constitutiomal Amend- ment, “We warmly approve the call of the leaders of our party, State and Federal, fora meeting of the Demo- cratic voters in every voting pre- cinct in the State to be held on the night of September 14th, in the towns and cities and on Septem- ber 15th. in the country pre: cincts, toorganize Bryan and Ste- venson cluts. We urge upon all vo- ters whe believe in the declarations of the Kansas City Convention, who wish to garner the blessings that will follow in the wake of the Con- stitutional Amendment which goes into effect in 1902, and all who op- pose negro office holding, in State or Federal positions in the South, to unite with us to perfect a thor- ough organization in very voting precinct in the Fourth Congression- al District to the end that in Novem- ber this district shall register its verdict‘For theRepublic and against the Empire.’ ”’ -—_—_—— Oe Buxton on the Race Issue. neon Specialto Raleigh Newsand Observer, Hon.

Mr. Buxton said the question has been raised wheth- er the race issue has bean settled in this State. It can never be settled, he said, as long as the Republican party puts upaman for Congress who voted for anegro, and against @ one armed Confederate soldier. It can’t be settled when the Republi- can nominee of this district voted to put Eastern cities and towns of this State under negro rule.

While the business of the fish dealer is not the :nost pleasant, it is very important, and pays fairly well. “The person who gives us the most troubie is the voung housewife,” said a dealer in Lexington market yesterday. ‘‘She comes here, picks up a fish, and, after ordering some, will remember that her husband said to be sure and get them fresh. Then is when the trouble begins. No matter how fresh they are, she will have her doubts about the n.atter, and it is the hardest matter in the world to convince her that they are just out of the water. The preper way to distinguish fresh fish is to look at their gills. If the gills have lood upon them, and the eyes of the fish are not sunken, they are all right. Some dealers have a way of making their stock look fresh. I haveeven known some men to color the gills of the fish in order to sell them.” Are you compietely exhausted? atx you suffer every month? : roy answer “yes”, to oO these'qiestions, you havevifls which Wine of i cures.

A reporter has telegraphed from Laporte the story of the robbery and routilation of the dead in Galveston, and the death of the offenders. The chouls were holding av orgie over the dead. The majority of these inen were negroes, but there were uso whites who took part in the lesecration. Some of them were natives and some had been allowed to go over from the mainland undes the wuise of ‘relief workers.”” Not ouly did they rob the dead but they mutilated bodies inorder to secure efforts, 85 passengers were blown away or drowned. The train was entirely wrecked. Doubtless some of the killed were from new Orleans, as the train madedirect connections with the Southern Pacific train which left here Fmday night, and there was a number of New Orleans passengers aboard. It. is known that at least some of these were pound for Galveston. Those who were saved had to| spend over 50 hours in the dismal! lighthouse on almost no rations. THE DEAD FLOAT BACK. The ery still comes from Galves- ton for disinfectants. It is the one hope of saving what is left of the population. Telegrams are pouripy into Dallas and other Texas cities asking for lime, carbolic acid and anything else that will operate to purify the stifling conditions. The supply of disinfectants here is al- most exhausted. If the outside world can hasten relief of this kind it will be an act of charity cf tbe first magnitude. A new horror 15 confronting Galveston—that is a second disposition of many of the dead. Bodies thrown into the sea are floating back to the city. They must now be disposed of by burning. Disinfectants become more needful as a Consequence of this new feat ure in the situation. The State troops that have been on duty at Galyeston are breaking down from their exertions and the unsanitary» condition. Adjutant General Scurry today called out the Dallas Rough Riders, of the First Texas Cavalry, to relieve the ex- bausted Houston Light Guards. The 2ough Riders, under command of Captain Haget, will at once start for Galveston. Relief work for Galveston is down now toa systematic basis. Dallas is the principal point of concentra- tion and distribution for more than one-half of the State and much of the country outside of Texas. By actual count 396 communities have remitted their contributions of mon- ey, clothing, food, drugs, etc., %0 Dallas. Counting what has been received by Governor Sayers and their ghoulish booty. A party of ten negroes Were returning from a jootiny expedition, They badstrip- Led corpses of allavaluables and the wkets of some of the looters were vairly bulging out with fingers of the dead which had been cut off be- cause they were so swollen the rings could not be removed, Incensed at ecration avd mutilation of ‘he dead the people shot down the looters aud it bas been determined bat all found in the act of robbing the dead shall be summarily shot. During the robbing of the dead, uot ouly were fingers cut off. but ears were stripped from heads in order to secure jewels of value. A lew government troops who have carvived are assistivg in patrolling the city. Private citizens have also +ndeavored to prevent the robbing vis cle of the dead and on several occasions | ‘ave killed tLe offenders. Singly sod two and three the offenders were hus shot down until the total of those thus executed exceeds fully ifty. NEGRO VANDALS SHOT. W. H. McGrath, manager of the} Sallas Electric Company, reached Dallas today, direet from Galveston last night. He said: “Vandalism at Galveston has been borrible. The most rigid enforce- ment of martial law has not been able to suppress it entirely. Adju- cant General Scurry’s men have ar- vested 100 or more negroes, +5. of whom were foued with effects taken ‘yom dead bocies. These were or- cered tried by court martial. They were convicted and ordered shot. One negro had 23 tingers with rings ou them in his pocket. these nevroes were found to have their pockets full of human fingers and jewelry of which the dead were stripped. VUE DEAD BEING DUMPED INTOTHE SEA. The citizens of Galveston are straining every nerve to clear the eround and secure from beneath the cebris the bodies of human beings und animals, and to get rid of them. it is a task of sreat magnitude and is attended with untold ditticulties. i here is a shortage of horses to haul the dead and there is a shortage of willing hands to perform the grue- some work. Yesterday morning it became apparent that it would be impossible to bury the dead even in rrenches ana arrangements were made to take them to sea. Barges aud tugs were quickly made ready for the purpose, but it was difficult to get men to do the work. The city’s tiremen worked hard in bring- ive the bodies to the wharf, but out- side of them there were few who helped. Soldiers and policemen sere accordingly sent out and every able-bodied man they found was rarched to the wharf front. The inen were worked in relays and were supplied with stimulants to nerve them for their task. At nightfall three barge loads, containing about 700 human bodies, bad been sent to sea, where they were sunk with weights. Darkness compelled suspension of the work until moruing. Toward night great difficulty was experienced in hand- ing the dead bodies of nevroes, which are badly decomposed. No ort was made after 9 o'clock yes- terday morning to place the bodies in morgues for identification, for it was imperative that the dead should be gouton to sea as soon as possible. biany of the-bodies taken out are unidentified. They are placed on the barges as quickly as possible ond lists are made while the barges are being towed to sea. A TRAIN LN THE STORM. The State today received a tele- gram from Hon. Johan Poe, member cf the State board of education and residieg at Lake Charles, stating that Sd lives were lost on the Gulf and inter-State train. which left Ueaumont early Saturday morning from Bolivar Point, after having lelt this city Friday night. Mr. Poe was one of the passengers on this train and together with a few others, he sought safety in the hght- house at Belivar Point, and was saved. The train reached Bolivar about noou, avd all preparations were made torun the train on the fsery boat, preparatory to crossing tue bay, but the wind blew so swift- ly that the ferryman could not make au landing and the conductor of the train, after allowing it to stand on the tracks for a few minutes, start ed to back it back towards - Beau- mont. The wind increased so rap- «ly, it coming from the open sea, at soon the water had reached a vel with the bottom of the seats 4 the cars. It was then that some of the pas- mt et oe Songers sought safety in the nearby ? r a ~ li zhthouse, but Mr. Poe states in — bis telegram that in spite of all Some of} the relief committees at Galveston and Houston, approximately $300,- | 000 worth of relief has been obtain- ed, and thestream is increasing in volume. Ten times asmuch, howev- er, as has been donated will be need- ed before the distress is safely re lieved. Drugs, disinfectants and clothing are the most urgent needs. TYPHOID FEVER BREAKS OUT. Galveston,Sept 14th.—Three huo- (dred vases of typhoid fever are re- ported today. The chairman of the State Board of health bas taken jchar,<e of the sanitary situation in | the stricken city. General MclKib- | ben, commander of the department in Texas, has ordered that the two miles of wreckage, along the beach, | which is honeycombed with rotting | corpses, be fired, despite the danger which may result to the city from } such a conflagration. | DEAD MORE TIAN 3,000 | Houston, Texas, Sept. 14.— The ‘Post today prints a list of 2,701 jnames ofthe Galveston dead, com- i piled frem various sources, but be- iieved to be authentic. There were {hundreds of bodies burned, buried at sea and in the sand, of which no dentitication was possible; there ;were other hundreds who were bu- jried on the beach of the mainland, few of whom have been identified. | There are many bodies still in the ‘ruins of Galveston and scattered ‘along the beach of the mainland and ;in the marshes, where they were jthrown by the water. Some of | these bodies have been sent twenty jmiles inland, along small water | courses by the rush of high waters. | Taking all things into consideration {there seems nu longer any doubt jthat the number of dead _ will reach | beyond the estimates of 5,000, which | has been made by Mayor Jones, Ma- jor R. G. Lowe and other reliable citizens of Galveston, = _—— 4b oe Dollars Above White Supremacy. Wilmington Star. We take it for granted that ths men in this State now called ‘“Mc- Kinley Democrats,’’ who voted for white supremacy at the Augustelec- tion, were sincere and really desired white supremacy. Nota single ove of them, we take it, would admit that he isin favorof negroes holding office in North Carolina, and yet, because the Democratic platform does not meet his approbation in every particular, he rejects that, op- poses its candidates, accepts the tepublican platform and supports its candidates. That party believes ia putting negroes in office (in the South, but not in the North), and candidate McKinley, for whom they say they will voreand for whom they ask the white voters of North Caro lina to vote, has appointed scores of negroes to office ia this and other Southern States, and sometimes in the face of the protests of nearly every white person in the commu nity. These. too, were mainly offices ip which the negroes came into direct contact with the white people. With what show of consistency, then, ca: a man who professes to believe iu white supremacy, and votes for it, support a party which declares that poutically the negro is the equal of the white man, vote to perpetuate it in power and to elect to cftice the wan who has appointed scores of negroes to office in spite of the pro tests of white people? The only possible excuse for such self-contra- diction would be a pledge by the candidate voted for that he would cease to appoint negroes to office, a viedge. it is needless to say, that Mr. McKinley would vot make if he were asked to doso, and which he could aot make without virtually re pudiating the declarations of the party to which he belongs. When a so-called ‘*McKinley Dem- ocrat’’ casts his vote for McKinley he substantially says so the Repub- lican party: “Give us legislation that will put money in my pocket and you can put all the negroes you want to in office in North Carolina When it comes to deciding between the profit I make and white suprem acy, I vote for the profits and let white supremacy go by the board. As between dollars in my pocket and negroes in otfice, I'll take the dol- lars, and let the negroes go in, bow ever repugnant that may be to oth er white people.”’ J. Q.

Itis six square miles inarea. its present limits be- ing the limits of the original corpor- ation and the boundaries of the land purchased from the republic of Tex- as by Col. Menard in 1838, for the sumof $50.060. Col. Menard as- sociated with himself several others, who formed a town site company with 2 capital of $1,000,000. “The city of Galveston was plant- ed on Apri! 20, 1858, and seven days later the Jots were put on the mar- ket. The streets of Galveston are numbered from 1 to 57 across the island from north tosouth, and the avenues are known by the letters of the alphabet, extending east and west lenvthwise of the is!and. “The growth of the city in| popu- lation was slow until after the civil war, It isa remarkable fact for the population of Galveston does double the amount of business of any city 10 America. The population of 1590 was 30,000, showing an increase of 400 per cent, in 30 years. At pre- sent the population is estimated at 39,000. “Galveston has over two miles of completed wharves along the bay front and others under construction, all of which are equipped with mod- ern appliances, During the cotton season (September 1 to March 31, inclusive) often 30 or more steamers and as many iarge sailing vessels are accomodated at one time, besides the numerous smaller vessels and _sail- ing craft doing coast wise trade. Cotton isthe staple which goes to make up the immense bus ness of Galveston. “QManufacturing is one of the chief supports of the city. In this branch of industry Galveston leadsany city ia the State of Texas 50 per cent, in number and more than 100 percent. in captital employed and product turned out. Of factories the city has 306, employing a capital aggre- vating $10,886,900, with an output of $12,000,000 a year. “The three national banks, the savings bank, and four private banks have a combined capital of $12,600,- 000, In addition to these banks there are 12 to 15 cotton factors who doa banking business, lending to the cotton trade. “Bradstreet’s commercial report shows a total of 65 wholesale houses, with a capital of 37,996,000, and S36 retail establishments, with a capital of #8,110,650. The annual business of the whole- sale houses is estimated at £57,000,- WUU, while that of the retail esta- jishments foot up to $18,500,000. “The jetty coastruction forims one of the chief features of its commer- cial advantages. The construction began in 1885, progressing slowly for tive years, when the desired of the citizens for a first-class harbor led to the formation of a permanent com- mittee, which succeeded in getting a bill through Congress authorizing an expenditure of $6,200,000 on the harbor. The bill provided that there should be two parallel stone jetties extending nearly six miles out into the Gulf, one from the east point of Galveston Island, one from the west point of Bolivar Peninsular. The jetties are 50 feet wide at the bot- tom and slope gradually to five feet above mean low tide, and are 35 feet wide at the-top. The immediate effect of early construction of the jetties was to remove the inner bar, which formerly had 13 feet of water over it. and which now has over 21 feet of water. ‘Nature gave to Galveston some important advantages. Its inner harbor jis of inestimable value, ac- cording to the engineers, to the suc- cessful solution of the harbor prob- lem. Within the 30-foot curve there are pearly 500 acres, and there are more than 1,300 acres where the depth is 24 feet. “The inner bay is separated from the Gulf of Mexico oy a low sand is- iand 27 miles long and varying from one to two miles in width, on which Galveston city is situated. and by a spit 20 miles long called Bolivar Pe- ninsula. The main entrance to the bay is between the east end of Gal- veston Island and the west end of Bolivar Peninsula, and in its natur- al condition had a width «f 3,000 feet and a depth of not exce-dingy 11 feet at mean low water. Other great vdvantages of the harbor are its ac- cessibility to the region tributary to it, and its railroad facilities. “Galveston Island is separated from the mainland by a strip of wa- ter two miles across and is spanned by two railroad bridges and w steel wagon bridge constructed by the county vovernment. “In the centre of Galveston Is- land and nine miles south vest of the city, is located South Galveston. It has a beach frontage of abeut 3,750 feet on the Gulf of Mexico, extends entirely across the island, and has the same frontage on the bay shore. Its elevation is bigher than that of any other land on Galveston Island. “The bay frontage of South Gal- veston beitug accessible to water transportation, is well adapted to factory sites, and this portion of the town embraces the island extermi- nation of Coromkaway Reefs, ex- tending across the bay to the main- land, many portions of which are visible at low tide. This reef offers au opportunity for building a rail- road bridge between the is!und and mainland and the project has been under consideration, **On the south side of the city, be- ginning within 50 yards of the me- cium Gulf tide, the wealthy resident portion of the city is located. This was the tirst part of Galveston to be stricken by the full force of the stormand flood. Between Broid- way and 1 street some of the band- somest and most expensive residence establishments are located. Most of the residences are of frame, but there were many of stone and brick. In the extreme eastern end of the city there are many ‘raised cottages,’ Tbey are built on piling and stand from eight to ten feet from the ground as & precaution against tlocds, it being possible for the wa- ter to sweep under them. “The only protection that ever has been provided for the Gulf side of the city has been two stone break- waters, but many times with ordi nary storms coming in from the Gulf the high tide water kas been hurled over the low stone walls right io the doors of the residences. ”’ “DeWitt’s Little Early Risersare the finest pills I ever used.’’—D.

Sam Jones mavor of this city who} got more than 100,000 votes as ay candidate for governor, has come out for Beyan, He has declined a congressional | nomination at the hands of the Re- publicaps, and will give his best efforts to elect Bryan. This means the State of Ohio for the Democratic party, Democrats believe. Mr. Jones issued a statement as follows. “When I enter booth to adminis- ter the sacrament of my ballot, L shall use my best endeavor to record my conscience in favor of equality and against war, in favor of love and reason rather than war and revenge, and | shall yote for William J.

This is the announce inent here of the ‘divine right of kings’ in another form. “T believe the position of the ad- ministration with respect to the Philipino war is a denial of equality and a contradiction of the principles of human liberty set forth in the preamble of the declaration of inde- pendence, “T have turned the subject over in my mind for months; I have studied every phase of it to the extent of my ability, and with all due respect for the men who are doing the gov- erning and for many friends whoare in sympathy with them: caudor compels me to say that I can see nothing but danger and disaster that is certain to overwhelm the re- public if this policy is continued. 1 cannot see how we can be a republic of sovereign equals while holding colonial dependencies after subjuga- ting them by force of arms. “I can see no safe basis upon which we can hope to bnild up a govern- mestal structure other than con- sent of the goyerned.’ ‘I do not want to govern son simply becuusehe is weaker than I, and [I am sure that I can never consent to les another govern because be has supperior strength.

Few men are more conservative than ex-Governor Campbell, of Ohio. He has been classed asa gold-bug, but has always retained his party standing. He is here today and up- on being interviewed said: “The Democrats are making yvains every day. The man who to-day predicts the result of the election discounts the possibility of unex- pected things happening within the two months between now and the election. What we can talk about with certainty is the condition at this time. The Democrats are now making steady gains. They are gaining strength every day in New York, in Ohio, in Indiana, in fact, all over the country, If the election occurred today the Domocratic vote would be larger thau it would have been yesterday. Thus far, I think there have been no day when we were not stronger than the day be- fore. Sucha condition surely protn- ises well for success.”’ “To what extent,” he was asked, “are the gold Democrats going to support Bryan?” “A very large majority of them are going to support the ticket.”’ “How about the issues of the cam- paign?” “No matter what the platform may say, the paramount issue is what the people makeit. It is the present condition of affairs that gives them the most concern. This is the development of the trusts and the overgrown money power. The busi- ness people all over the country, of allelasses, are disturbed by this. The trusts and the overgrowo money po-rer are a menace to busi- ness interests. This fact is very generally realized by business men. It is not the working people and those of small means who are most concerned. Business men with one, or two, orthree hundred thousand do'lars are threatened more than any others. They arein danger of being destroyed by the trusts and the centralized money power which is eating them up. Zhe weaker business interests are being destroy- ed right along the line, and even the little millionaire sees his turn corn- ing soon. They know that the pow- er exists that can crush them aud they want to findsome escape from it.

They can’t buy this elec- tien, Lfeelit in my benes that it will be a sweep for Bryan. It wil not be close. Bryan willcarry New York, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana, Hii- uvis and other Western Siates. He will get more electoral votes than Cleveland got in 92. The working men are not fools. They know that these vigantic trusts will soon root them out of every g comfortable in life. Toeir only hope isin Bryan, and Il know that they are for him all over the Union: He is an honest man and a ereat man and the people believe in himand are as sure to elect him as the day of election comes. Other leading men have talked just like Mr. Croker, though perhaps not as enthusiastically. The news from all parts of the State is cheering for Brvan. The fight between Croker and Hill will help rather than hurt Bryan. It will put the two leaders on their mettle. Croker to give Bryan a great majority in Greater New York and Hill to reduce the Repubiican majority upin the State. ———— ee Chaiygmay Simmons Says a Solid Del- egation. Courier Journal's Washington Interview With Chairman Simons. “Stories about an exodus of ne- groes from North Carolina,’’ said State:Chairman Simmons, of that State, at the rooms of the Demo- eratic congressional commuttee. “are simply ridiculous. Why 1 know of a large number of negroes who voted for the amendment re- quiring an educational test for vo- ters, and there are at least 30,000 negroes uow in the State not affect- ed by it. “The only persons I know of who are dissatisfied with the law are the Republican politicians, whose occu- pations have been taken from them. In all my recollection I have never known the blacks to be more con- tented thar at present.” Speaking of the congressional sit- uation, Afr. Simmons continued: “T bave great hopes of being able to send a solid delevation to the next House. In the second district. now represented by George H. White, colored, the combined Democratic and Populist vote if polled for Claude Kitchin, the Democratic nominee, will elect him. This vote in 1898 amounted to 17,718, while White received 17.561, but this year being a presidential vear the vote will probably be somewhat greater. “Representative Linney has been defeated for renomination in the eighth district, acd I would not be surprised if some little soreness de- veloped among his friends. The district is a very close one, Judge Linney baying been elected by about 1,000 plurality, so you can see that a very little defection would be sufli- cient to bring about the defeat of Mr. Blackburn, the Republican nominee. “We have nominated ex-Repre- sentative Crawford again in the ninth, and I think he will undoubted- ly pull through. He was deprived of his seat in the present Congress by such a barefaced steal that even the Republicans of his district re- sent the treatment he received. He has carried the district three differ- ent times and bas a host of friends among his political opponents.” When asked abouts the reported defection of the business men of the State in favor of WcHinley, dir. Simmons stated that there was practically no truth in the reports. In the western portion of the State there are some prominent persons identified with the manufacturing interests who are for the Republican nominees, but these men have al- ways been Republicans on rational questions, while largely voting the Democratic ticket on State issues. “*} believe,’ he continued, ‘“‘that the elimination of the negro from the politics of the State will mean the wiping out of the Republican party, which means that the State will be Democratic beyond a doubt, as the Populist party bas almost cn- tirely disappeared, the members be- ing largely Democratic, and jthey are back again in our party.” When asked about the senater- ship Mr. Simmons refused to talk,as he is a candidate to succeed Senaior Butler. The selection has been left to a Democratic primary, to be held the same day as the national elec- tion. Ex-Representative Waddell and General Julian S. Carr are also candidates.

Its bead was not selected without the indulgence of acrimonious per- sonalities anda sarcastic exchange of complimeats among the leaders. But when the wil’ of the convention was finally regis'ered, ex Senator David B. Hill was first to the unanimous nomination of “a friend of life-long standin John B. Stanchiield.”’ This attitude proved so spontaneously eilective that rep- resentatives of alisostevery county which had opposed Mr. Stanchticid were immediately upon their feet, and one by one th: v were ix comnized by Cuairman Raines to second the nemination, The ballet for Gover- nor was: Stanchticid 294; Coler 164; Atackey 1. The platform becins with pledg- ing the Democracy of New York anew to the principles and policies of Jeffersonian De.socracy and en- dorsing the platform adopted by the last Demoeratic national coa vention. It contiuues’ “We recowuize ite truth of the declaration of the conveation that the burning issve of imperialism crowing out of the Spaniso war in- volves the very existence of the re- pubdlic and the Gestruction of our fvee institutions, We regard it as the paramount issue of the cam- pairn. - “Upon this issue, therefore, we in- vite allcitizens of cur State to pro- mote the election of a Democratic President, however they may differ upon national issues which at this time are inferior iu rank.” Relative to trusts, the platform specifically eondeinns the corporate combination known as the “ice trust,’ and denouaces all combina- tions of capital ki.own as trusts, as inevitably and intoleravly unjust to both consumer wid preducer, one result of which is to destroy all in- dividual enterprize and to rob the young men of the country of the fair competition which iu Demo eratic times constituted the great glory of the nation aud permitted the advancement and independence of ovr youth, The platform cordially endorses the candidacy of Mr. Bryan. a Little Rock, Ark., has 33,307 psp- ulation against 25 874 in Iss¢—an increase of 12.433. or 40.05 per cent.

Srumons, of Wake “LEST WE FORGET.” in 1894 evil days fell upon North The Populists joined the Republicans and the combination carried the State. When their-Leg- repealed the laws which white rule to the Eastern negro counties and negroes avain held offices in North Carolina, ‘be same combination carried the S:ate in 1886 and the second fusion oi than the st. Conditions became unbeara- pie in North Carolina. White men and women were ar- rested by neyro constables, deputy sheriifs and policemen, and taken for trial before negro justices of the Carolina ijx'ature met it 1 secured tature was worse Eastern peace. Early in 1598S the Democrats of the State began to plan for victory, and all eyes were turned to a for- mer captain of the hosts to lead the fight. He was elected chairman of the State committee, and he plan- ned the campaign with unequalled wisdom amd with matchless courage exeemed bis plans. Notwithstand- ing fhe fustenists controlled the clection machinery in every precinct in the State and the State and Fed- eral governments, the fusion ma- jority of 40,000 in 1596 was turned intoa Democratic majority of 17,- O00 in 89S. The Legislature elect- more than three-fourths Democratic in each branch. When that Leyislature met an amendment to the State constitution disfran- chising of the negroes was submitted to the people of the State. Yo lead the tight for its adoption only one wan was thought of and he that leader of leaders who had re- State in 1898. The adoption of the amendment by over 93,000 and Aycock’s election as sovernor by more than 60,000 ma- jority is recent history in North Carolina. Now, Democrats of North Caroli- na, the man who led you out of the wilderness of fusion misrule and negro office-holding into the prom- ised land of good government and white supremacy is a candidate for your votes. He hopes to represent youir the Senate of the United States. In ability and character he is the peer of either of his opponents orofany man in North Carolina. Then, should not his great services to the party and the State be re- warded with this great office? When North Carolina Democrats are tempted to forsake Furnifola M. immons, let them remember con- ditions under fusion rule and re- peat to themselves Kipling’s famous lines: ed was most doemed the “Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget—lest we forget.’ -_———> << — - Sir.

Bryan and Adlai E. Stevenson, Dem- o¢ratic candidate for the Presidency and Vice Presidency; James K. Jones, chairman of tke Demoeratic National Committee, and William kt. Hearst, president of the National Association of Democratic Clubs. The call in full follows: Tothe Democratie clubs, societies, and citizens of the United States: The near approach of the national convention of Demecratic clubs, which will be held at Indianapolis on October 3, imposes upon Demo- crats everywhere the duty of in- creasing the work of club organiza- tion. This is a field of patriotic en- deavor in which every citizen of every State and Territory can be reasonably expected to take his place. Patriotism can accomplish little unless itis active, brave and practical. The far-reaching issues which confront the American peo- ple today—issues which involve our form of gevernment and the princi- ples upon which it has thus far se- curely rested—should impel every citizen to become a politician in his own right. The government be- longs to the people. and the people themselves must defend it when it is in di qwer. The Democratic party is opposed to the establishment of dependent colonies under the American flag, is pledged to increase warfare against trusts and every form of private monopoly. The Kansas City plat- form has arrayed against the De- mocracy the combined power of those who profit by iniquitous laws, government favoritism, and perver- sions of the Constitution of the United States. A vast corruption fund has been contributed to the Re- publican party by men whose per- sonal greed is greater than their in terest in free institutions, just legis- lation, and an impartial administra- tion of thelaws. Unless the con- trol of the government and its poli- cies are to be determined by the cor- rupt use of money, the people must be awakened toa realizing sense of deadly peril environing their most sacred democratic institutions. The Democratic party relies for yictory upon the justice of its cause and the hearty co-operation of its supporters. The work of defending the nation against imperialism, mili- tarism and trusts can be best ad- vanced by cluborganization. Itisa convenient and inexpensive method of raising a great volunteer army of liberty. A loyal citizen should be ready to serve hiscountry in times of peace as in times of war. Let every citizen who sympa- thizes with the Democratic cause take it upon himself todo something toward organization of a Demo- cratic club or society ia bis own neighborhoog. There should bea clyb in every peeeinetin tho goun- try. The power of organization is irresistible when the people are in earnest. All Demoeratic State and local committees are requestedto see to it that no precinct shall be without a Democraticclub. Time presses, an1 there should be no delay. The ene- my is powerful, vigilant and active. A club organized now will be more effective than a club organized next week. Itisimportant that every Democratic organization in the country should join the National As- sociation of Democratic Clubs (head- quarters No. 1370 Broadway, New York), and should send delegates to the convention of Democratic clubs. It is important that the number of clubs should be greatly increased be- fore the ccnvention meets. Wittiam J. Brras, ADLAI E. STEVENSON. James K. Jones, Ch'rm’n.

The water to- night lacks only six feet of reach- ing the 1890 mark and is still rising. Owing to the heavy rains last night and yesterday on Elm Fork, the West Fork and the Clear Fork, all of them emptyinginto the Trinity river above Dallas, the prospect is for the stream going past the 1890 mark some time tonight. No liyes have been lost in the immediate vi- cinity of Dallas, but cotton ané live stock, notably sheep and hogs, have suffered heavily. The county commissioners of Dal- las county met today. They esti- mated the loss of bridges at $25,000, independent of the numerous small bridges and the street damage in the county of Dallas, which will be nearly as much. The item of dam- age to roads and bridges alone in the dozen or more counties affected in northern Texas will be about $250,000. A bulletin received here this afternoon from Fowler, in Bos- que county, said: *‘Brazos riverout of its banks; higher than in 12 years and going higher. Big rise will reaeh Waco tonight,’” Fowler is 50 miles north of Waco. Bismarck’'s Iren Nerve Was the result of bis splendid health.

ES Te AAD Troops Refused in the Pennsylvania Surike. Philadelphia Dispatch, asth. The most interesting development in the coal strike situation today was the request of another county for troops to assist the authorities in maintaining order. On Friday last the sherit? of Schuylkill county asked the Governor for troops and the request was granted, three regi- ments of the National Guard being immediately sent into that county. Today Sheriff Harvey, of Luzerene county, notified the Governor that owing to the night marches of the strikers he could not guarantee the safety of persons and property and asked that State troops be sent to his county. The Governor, after de- liberation, concluded that the situa- tion at present in Luzerene county did not justify the sending of State troops there and he will not callout more troops until, in bis juiyment, thers ig suffieiont cause thorefor. He wil! vonfer tomerrow further with Sheriff Harvey on the subject. The marching _strikers in Luzerene county before daylight this morning were quite successful in vetting men to quit work and join the strike. No overt acts were committed by them, however, und when met by the sheriff and his deputies and or- dered to disperse, they obeved the order. They did so, thouyvh, in rather a sullen manner and some of them somewhat angrily disputed the sheriff’s authority to prevent their movirg along the hi hway. Four of their number were placed under arrest on the charge of breach of the peace. Rioting in previous miners strikes usually resulted from the acts of marching bodies of strikers and the sheriff being apprehensive, is en- deavoring to break up the style of strike campaigning. Beyond the in- cident of the sheritf’s disper-iug the marchers, tbe entire coal revion was free from disorder during the day and night. Few of the mines were worked to-day and the strikers’ ranks were increased. —————aE> bo ee “ Dismal Swamp's Big Fire. Kewport News, Va., Dispatch, 25th. Fifteen thousand acres of tiraber land were destroyed by the tire which has been raging in Dismal Swamp for the past month. An investigation by agents of the com- pany which recently bought the timber lands in the swamp, the Camp Manufacturing Company. of Franklin, Va., and Albin, #ia., ve- vealed the extent of the destruction. The fire is not yet out, but it is eon- fined principally to small areas, Valuable pine and juniper trees are burned and shriveled and scorched as high as 80 féet from the marsh. The soil, which is something simi- lar to peat, bas been burned in places toa depth of several feet. Everything in the path of the fire is fringed with black. An estimate of the loss suifered by the Camp Com- pany is out of the question. Bears, deer, wildcats and wolves have either sought safety by fleeing to the highlands or going further into theswamp. Within the past two weeks Southampton county, Va., and Hertford county, N. C., have been overrun with a peculiar kind of wolves, resembling coyotes, which bave carried off several hundred head of sheep and hogs. It is be- lieved now that these animals were driven from the swamp. S»me of them have been captured and sent to zoolegical parks.

This is the second week of the an- thracite coal miners’ strike, and there is little prospect of an end of | the struggle. There was violence last week, and 1t is not unlikely that before the end ‘of this week there may be much more bloodshed. An effort was made yesterday to |start the mines, but at most of them not aminer went to | the col-! jlieries. The mines that did start up | ‘did so under the protection of | soldiers. The miners show no sign of wiv ing up, and the prospects are that other lsbor organizations. especial ly those eugayed in operating the railroads running through the coo regions, may be trounle drawn into the The demands of the miners have been briefly sumined upas follow Wayes to be paid semi monthis in cash Anady ’ Wages les cent ib ‘e of 20 per than $1 50. Aun advance of 15 per cent. in jawayes of €1 50 and less than $1 75 Anadvance of 10) per cent. i wages of $1.75. Abolition of the sliding scale of wages. Abolition of the company doctor system. Abolition of the company store system. A ton of coal to be actually 2.240 pounds, and not as now, over 3,00U. Price of powder to be $1.50 a key, aad not as now, $250. The compa- ny gets it for 90 cents. There seems to be nothing unrea- sonable about these demands, but the trusts think there is, and rather than make any concessions they pro- pose to take all the dinner from the dinner pail, and if that is not sufi- cient they will have soldiers shoot submission into the rebellious mi- ner with Mauser rifles, There are about 165,000 men and boys employed in the anthracite in- dustry in the region of the strike, gettiag $52,000,000 a year im waves and producing coal worth fully twice that amount: The great anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania are divided generally into three veneral divisions, known as the Wyoming, Lehigh aad Schuylkill, from the rivers travers- ing or nearthem: Inthe northern field, known as the Wyoming and Lackawanna regions, the shutdown was practically complete on the first day of the strike. In the south- ern fields, or Schuylkill and Lehigh regions the miners struck with some reluctance, but since the be- winning of the strike pressure das been brought to bear upon them, and it is estimated that 60 per cent. or 90,000 men, are out. Roughly speaking, slightly more than one- half of the total production was sus- pended on the opening day of the strike. During the past week the strike extended until now an actual famine in anthracite coal supplies is threatened. e+ em et eg Senator Gorman Thinks the Chances Favor Bryan’‘s Election. Washington Dispatch, 2sth Kx-Senator Gorman appears to be- lieve that there is a very fair chance of Bryan’s election. “1 do not believe either party has made a canvass which would war- rant a conclusion as to the probable result of theelection,’’ he said toa reporter today. ‘‘It is several weeks before the election and the cam- paigns run more or less in waves. There is a drift—a very decided drift—in favor of the Democrats, which justifies the hope that Bryan will be elected. Political condirions seem much as they were 1892 " Is it your opinion that the sold Damocrats are generally supporting the ticket’ was asked. “The men who are politicians are naturally party men, and the mod- erate men—that is, those of moder- ate wealth—are back in the party supportiog the ticket. The smaller number of men of great wealth who are st the head of some great vor- poretions and moneyed institutions are g0t yenerally coming to the sup- port of Mr. Bryan. The men of moderate fortune, the middle class of business men and those who want to get back into their party are going to give the ticket their support.” **How about the situation ia New York ?” “I cannot speak from personal knowledge as to New York. The men who are managing politics for the Democrats in that State say they are going to carry it. They are sincerely confident. They be- lieve they are going to succeed. The Democratic managers generally feel confident in the general situa tion and believe that Mr. Bryan is’ going to be elected. The drift is strongly in that direction.” —-- | > <p A Tragedy in Williaaston. Goldsboro Dispatch, 2gth, Miss Moore, a daughter of the late Hon. J. &.
