There will also be special horse races, an automobile race, compet ing for cup. the double parachute leap balloon ascension, etc., etc. This is the closing day of the Sev enth Annual Fair of the North Caro lina Agricultural Society, and it has Wen already seen that the success attending the efforts of those that have the making of the Fair, has sur passed that of any previous year. The Races Yesterday. . The races yesterday were the best of the week and there was great en thusiasm and excitement when they were going on. Thousands witnessed the races, while there were othef thousands that could not see for the very immensity of the crowd. But while the races were going on thou sands who could not see them, thou sands that were not aware that the ra races were going on, were enjoying Other attractions.

Farm and Garden Products and ; Uve Stock. t The attention of many of the thous ands at the Fair yesterday was at tracted by the magnificent exhibit of Wake county farm products made by Mr. W. H. Bobbins, of Raleigh, who won first premium farm products worthy the admiration of all Fair vis ltors Interested in agriculture. There are other very creditable exhibits of agricultural products, and a most beautiful display of North Carolina orchard ''fruits, this being artiscally arranged in glass show cases. The exhibits of live stock are very creditable and evidence North Caro lina's great possibilities in the line of stock raising, especially of cattle and hogs. Agriculture In the Rural Schools.

Agt Bryan On Average Man Has Typical Audience. (Continued from Page One.) the parity. He should have said that the rati between the splendid au dience and himself was the sacred ratio of 1 to 1 in favor of the au dience. The audience was so splendid that he could not hope to reach It all with his voice and must therefore talk to that part of it that he could reach, and he would ask him to act as a convention and transmit anything that they might think worthy to repeat to those who could not hear what he had to say When he spoke of the "average man," Mr. Bryan wanted it under stood that he was not speaking of the ladles at all. "There is no average woman; so far as my experience goes, they are all above the averagre." In speaking of the average man, he wanted to show "how numerous he Is, how im portant, what his connection with government is. If. when you think of the average man you think of him as a Democrat, it is because If he knows what's best he can't be anything else. Sometimes, in other countries, he had had occasion to look for the average man and could not find him because he was nat there. In Mex ico the official class was refined and educated; they live is luxury. Outside of them the situation was very different; the peon had neither advantages or refinement. While the officials were doing what they could to lift up the level there was much to do. Because there was no middle class, Mexico was sending to the United States for men to manage her railroads. In Asia, the situation was worse, the ruler was at the ton and the peo ple at the bottom, with an Immense gulf between the two. In Europe, while the extremes are not so far apart, there is no middle class such as there Is here at least no such classes compares with that in this country. When in England he had visited several great estates, two of them that had come down in the same family for two hundred and six hundred years respectively. On one of them 200 families of tenants tended to 7,000 acres of land. "For seven cen turies, one family had held the right to collect the rents, and two hundred the right to pay the rent. Those who owned the soil could not get rid of it. and those who tilled it, could not get hold of it" He saw there the blight of landlordism, and he saw as he had never before the ervice that Jef ferson had rendered in the . law pre venting the entail of land. If that law had not have been passed, there would have followed a landed aris tocracy. "The more I saw of the old world," said Mr. Bryan, "the more I loved the new. One thought impressed me deeply: nowhere among the old coun tries was their average man as big as our average man. Nowhere are the common people like our people." For far lest some one should con sider the use of the word "common" a erproach, he would enumerate the men he included in the limits of the expression. How large and respect able a class it is! When he had started his "Com moner Republican editors had twit ted him with the name. He replied that, when it was understood who are embraced in the word, it would be seen to be such a commitment that everybody would be anxious for a ticket of admission. "I will put In all the farmers." he declared. "They belond there because it Is the only place where they would feel at home. They make enough to keep out of the poor house, but they never make enough to entice any broken down nobleman Into coming over and disgracing them by marry -flng in the family." Solomon had said "feed me with food convenient for me." No class better came with in that prescription than the farmer. With neither riches nor poverty he had "food convenient to him." The farmer, said he, was his ideal of the average man. He included in the classification all the farmers. He would Include, too. the merch ants and "the mechanics in the city and the toilers in the towns who do what the farmers do in the country. These two classes, he said, not only otmstituate a large portion of the population . but they are the ones who create the country's wealth In peace and fight Its battles in war. If the common people ar the foundation of the National prosperity and the "bulwark of the country's strength, are they not then respectable? He would Include, also, the merch ants a few of them became mer chant princes and tried to climb out; most of them are glad to be counted in. He would include, also, the doctora A few specialists in the city might not like the term, but most of the phy sicians arc a part of the common peo ple. They arise at all times of night to minister to suffering. Amid ap plause. Mr. Bryan stated that the phy sicians made up the class that did more work for nothing than any other. Sonic Ciood Lawyer Jokes. Another class, about which there would be more question, was that of the lawyers. There was no use, he said, to laugh abou It. There were people who made a habit of laughing when anything good was said about a lawyer That reminded him o"f a Joke. In Texas -i man was running for Con gress and he met an old farmer on the street and after asking about his crops and his family remarked: "You know that I'm running for Congress?" "Yes." replied the farmer, "I've beam the fellers laughing about it." Some people laugh when one starts out to praise a lawyer. The farmer laughs -until he gets In trouble and then he very seriously consults an at torney. Out In Nebraska in a convention made up of farmers, some man who was nominating a friend mentioned that he was a lawyer. When another friend went to second the nomination, he realized the mistake and corrected it. Th- gentleman had been a law yer, he said, but he had been dis barred. That restored him to favor! 'corn-fed' lawyers." "I am not defending the lawyer be cause I am one myself," said Mr. Bry an. "It has been ten years since I tried a case and the statute of limita tions has run in my favor if it is a crime." He defended the lawyer be cause he had a place in society hardly appreciated by the lawyer himself. He is most important, not ln court, but ln society at large. In the New York Tribune an editorial writer had ridiculed the Oklahoma constitution as being the production of "corn-field" lawyers. VI want the newspaper men to get me right on this," said he, "for at one place where I used tho expression they made me say corn-fed lawyers. Praise for Oklahoma Constitution. Now h- had read the Oklahoma constitution, and It was not only bet ter than that of any other State, but It was far better than he Federal Con,-! stltutlon. It was written by "corn field lawyers" in a convention that was composed of nine-tenths Demo crats. "I suppose," said he, "it would 1vav been picer If they had all been Democrats. Butwve must be reason able and not demand too much. Even In gold and silver money, ten per cent is alloy and -90 per cent pure metal. Ninety per cent Is gojad enough either in money or In a convention, . j "I have read the constitution of Oklahoma carefully. ; he repeated, "and I was amused at the care with which these cornfield lawyers puttied up the holes that, the trusts have been shooting in all the other constitutions. For a quarter of a century the chief business of trusts has been to find something in the constitution that would prevent the people from pro tecting themselves against predatory wealth. This constitution, although written by cornfield lawyers, was writ ten from" the standpoint of the com mon people, and when It was submit ted to the people, after injunction had been attempted, it was carried by something like 100,000 majority, hav ing the support of alt the Democrats and of a large percentage of the Re publicans. A great many of their Re publicans are Democrats and don't know it and go on and vote the Re publican ticket merely by force of habit. This Is true notwithstanding the fact that Secretary Taft went all the way down there to tell them to vote against it This constitution can be easily amended either by a major ity vote of the people ' whenever the amendment is submitted to them by a majority Vote of their legislature and the Democrats who framed the consti tution were so generous that they put In another provision that whenever 15 per cent of the voters petitioned that a vote upon any amendment be had, this could be done without n vote of a majority of the legislature. The Republicans of Oklahoma are so confident that they expect at all times to be able to get 15 per cent of the people to petition for any amendment that they need, even after Secretary Tafe made a special visit down there. Newspapers and Newspapers. "Well, my friends, these corn field lawyers are the champion of every movement in this country. There is no question so small that It is beneath their notice and no problem so large that they do not grapple with it. These corn field lawyers have threshed out and settled all the great reforms be fore the commonwealth. Yes, I am going to put the lawyers in, for they belong there. And now I am going to put in another class. I : am going to put ln the newspaper men. Not all of them belong to this class, but near ly all. There are some that I can't put In for I can't tell who they are. There are some in the great cities who own newspapers and their names are never known to the people. We do know that some of the newspapers are not run as business enterprises, as newspaper enterprises. but as a scheme of the owners to deceive the people through the employment of brilliant editors. while the real owners .picked the pock ets of the people. That class of newspapers is one of the great curses of today. They are always against the interests of the common people where their rights are con cerned. I am glad this is not true of all the newspapers, even some of the metropolitan newspapers, for an editor who is true to the common people In a servant to all the people throughout our land The weekly newspaper, edited by a man of char acter and a conscience is orie of the strongholds of liberty or the common people. I am going to put the week ly newspaper and their editors in the number of the : dallies of class. I am going to put a great smaller cities In this class. There is one editor ln this State that I have watched carefully for a long time, and I am going to put him In this class, my friend Daniels. All Common Folks Together. "I am going to put the teachers In. They belong there. I am going to put the preachers in. for they belong there. There may be a- few. preach ers In the cities filling high priced pulpits who would not like to be there among the com mon people. And now I am going to open the door, and. let anybody else come In who wants to. I have had railroad men ask me If they might come In. Yes, they are a part of us and thev are so faithful In the dis charge of their duty that we go to sleep on the train with as much of the feeling of security as If we were at home. I had a hotel keeper come up one day and ask me If he might co ne ln. I said, 'Yes, you. are a part of the common people too. I have had some bankers ask permission to Join, and I told them they might come in. Not all of them have come In. Some of them think it is more Im portant to keep on the side of their New York correspondent than to keep on the side of the common people. I think some of them have learned a great deal since. 1896. Then we had quite a scattering among them and some of them had im pressed upon their minds that they belonged to this class. I knew one fellow in Nebraska, a banker who got an Idea that he did not belong to this class. He attempt ed to dictate to his depositors. One day a Swede came In and the banker tried to scare him by telling him that if he voted for Mr. Bryan his dollar would be worth only one-half. Then this depositor went out and thought over it and he came back and asked for all of his deposit in the bank. He went out and told another Swede what the banker had told him that if he voted for Mr. Bryan his dollars would only be worth half as much and this man came in and asked for all of his money, 11.400 at one time. Then there was a run on the bank. The banker told the Swede to go back and tell his friend that he did not mean what he said about Mr. Bryan being elected, that hei had lied to him. There is no reason why the bankers would not be with this class. It is not a question of fortune, but a question of sympathy. Thomas Jef ferson was a rich man for his time, but he was the first great Jeader of the common people. He was educated for. his time but his sympathies were with the common people and he strug gled with them for their rights. "Now, my friends, I think it safe to say that 95 per cent of our people belong to the common class. This Is a numerous class. Is It not a respec table class? Arn't you glad to be long to It? I am. I would not care to belong to anw other calsn of so ciety. I am afraid there are some classes that I could not get in even ir I tried. They have a particular class In New York that no one can get into, unless he can show at least three generations back to himself no ancestor of his did any honest work. My grand-father, was a Virginia farmer and my father was born there on the farm. Ills parents died when he was young and he had to work his way. He worked on the farm to make something to go to school a year, lie was twenty-seven when he graduated and twenty-nine when he began to practice law. - I am proud of every drip of pers piration that fell from his brpw and I would rather have his blood run ning through my veins than the blood of any nobleman in New York. He taught me to respect labor and to la bor. I have worked upon the farm, and when I was ln the law school I wanted to add something to Imy in come to relieve the family so far as I could and I made 2 a week cleaning up -an office, sweeping it out every night ana morning ana scouring tne floor every Saturday night, j and I never made a dollar that I was more proud of than J was those. I have tried to teach my children to respect labor and since I left home I have re ceived a letter from my wife telling me that my only son. .now in college, had spent Saturday afternoon after I left helping a man put the f alfalfa croo In the. barn. I want my children to be proud ? to belong to this class. My friends, this country will be what ; Continued on Page Six.i ' FOOT BALL GAME 1 " . . 1 - if...

There Is an alliteration between Fair week and football the one sug gests the other. There Is no reason why the State Fair bf North Carolina should not be made 4he time, place and occasion of some of the greatest athletic events of the South. There is no reason why tle educational in terests of the State; should not send their athletes to contest in the track athletics, in football, ; in basket ball, and In socker one with another, and with athletes representing Institutions from other States. There is no other Innovation that wbujld proye so pop ular with the public. There is nothing- else that would so add to the social prestige, pleasure and populari ty of our State Fair.t The Athletic Association of the A. and M. College is jaroing to do Its full part towards brlngfnjg about these an nual athletic events And as the crowning athletic eVent of this pres ent State Fair, they jvlll tomorrow af ternoon, at four o'clock, on. the athlet ic field of the college contest for grid iron supremacy and football honors with the strong and unbeaten team from Roanoke College. This will be the highest and mosi uncertain of the football jrames so far played this sea son by the A .and M. College team. Roanoke! College has beaten this sea son Washington and tee University and the V. M. I. Washington and Lee played the University of North Carolina a nothing-nothing game. These scores indicate that Roanoke College has a team, this year of excep tional strength and that the game to day will fully test the, ability of the A. and M. team to wjn. in this game It will be possible to get a fair estimate of the strength of the Carolina team that will contest with the University of Virginia in Norfofk on Thanksgiv ing day for the football championship of the South, With this game will be gin the actual hard Work and practice of preparing for th victory the A. and M. expects to win from the Uni versity of Virginia op that date. In this game some of the plays that will be used against Virginia, will be tried. The strength of the A. and M. line, which has heretofore been Impreg nable, the speed and certainty of its backs will be fully demonstrated. The fast open style play iwhlch the pres ent game permits will be taken ad vantage of to the fullest extent. The tricky forward passes, the quarter back runs, the fake passes and kicks will all be given a thorough try-out. In conversation I .with a rep resentative of the! 'A. and M., he said he feels ;! assured of a victorious season crowned with a decisive victory j over Virginia on Thanksgiving day.' "We've got the best coach we've evef had, we've gdt the hardest working team and one thoroughly Imbued with the idea that it has Just got to win. We've got the solid support of the student body, and that means a lot. You will find that they can root for this team as Well as drill . All of thesfe make for and indicate a winning team." Next year the A. apd ,M. will play the Carlisle Indians here during1 Fair week. Negotiations a.re ! well under way for this game. But for this present week, turn out this afternoon and see the Carolina team that will beat Virginia next Thanksgiving Day. i Address by Hon.J. 0.
