2X. A. LONDON. Editor.
Another Republican conven
tion has been called in the eighth
Congressional district to meet at
Taylovsville, on the 1st day of
June, for the purpose of nominat
ing another candidate for Con
gress in place of Spencer Black
burn. !
This convention is called by the
regular chairman of the district
executive committee, who says in
his call that Blackburn's nomina
tion was illegal, as there was not
a quorum of legally elected dele
gates present in the convention
that nominated him. This chair
man also declares in his publish
ed call, in denouncing Blackburn's
Eoaiination, that "injustice had
been too manifest and insult too
aggravated to admit of it."
Now, this is no "Democratic lie"
but is the deliberate declaration
of the Republican chairman, and
is a nice commentary on the way
in which Republicans obtain nom
inations and cheat each other. And
yet, this is the party that is call
ing on the honest white men of
North Carolina to join in order to
purify politics!
Before Congress adjourned :
the conference committee ofthej
Senate and House struck out Sen- j
ator Simmons' amendment which ;
allowed rural free delivery routes
to be established where the roads
are bad.
We had hoped that this timely '
and fair amendment would be
adopted, for it would have ena
bled our farmers to have many
more rural free delivery routes in
this State. If a mail carrier is
willing to carry the mail on bad
roads at the same price that is
paid on good roads, neither the
government nor any person ought
to object. We cannot understand
why a Republican Congress, that
pretends to be so great a friend to
the farmers, should have denied
them this privilege and convenience.
Washington Letter.
Before the adjournment of
Congress the House passed a bill
(which did not pass the Senate) to
make the Chinese exclusion law
more stringent than ever.
This bill as passed by the
House shows a wanton disregard
: i 1.15 l: ...1,1
not be submitted to by a goyern
ment of equal power. This bill
would not only exclude from our
country all Chinese laborers, but
even a Chinese artist, scientist or
Christian Minister. It would ex
clude a Chinaman who had been
converted to Christianity and
wished to come here as a duly or
dained minister of the Gospel to
try to convert the heathen Chi
nese now in our large cities.
Aad yet, our more powerful
Christian country complains be
cause the heathen Chinese object
to our missionaries coming to
China!
The Chinese problem is not so
serious or threatening to this
country as the negro problem, and
yet the people of the South have
never been guilty of such injus
tice to the negroes as the North
has perpetrated on the Chinese.
Ex-Senator Pritchard has been
appointed by President Roosevelt
the successor to Judge Simon ton.
This high judicial office pays $7,-
000 a year and is for life or rather '
"during good behavior."
This appointment has been very
pleasantly ccmmented on by the
press generally, and is as satisfac
tory to the Democrats as the ap
pointment of any Republican could
be. Judge Pritchard'd brief judi
cial career at Washington has been
highly creditable to him. If only
Republicans are to hold Federal
offices we would always prefer that
they be held by men who are honest
in their politics and are Republi
cans from principle, instead of men
who have no political principles
but have become Republicans for
the sake of office.
In the last issue of the Sauford
Express is a three column "write
up" of a day at Carthage court,
signed "D. L. S.," which are the
initials of a younger brother of
the editor of The Express, Mr.
Donnie St. Clair. In literary style
and finish and realistic descrip
tive writing this is one of the best
articles we have ever read in any
North Carolina paper, and marks
its author as destined to become
one of the best writers in the
State. He should at once seek a
wider sphere of usefulness.
Republican speakers and papers
have much to say about the ex
penditures made by our State
government and accuse the
Democrats of extravagance, but
you never hear them allude to the
extravagant and immense expendi
tures of the Federal government.
And yet the former compare with
the latter about as a minnow com
pares with a whale!
The expenditures under Roose
velt's administration are over
two hundred million dollars more
than the four years of McKinley's
administration, and are nearly a
billion dollars more than the four
years of Cleveland's last adminis
tration. The exact figures are
$2,640,000,000 expended by
Roosevelt, which is $211,000,000
more than the expenditures under
McKinley and $883,000,000 more
than under Cleveland. What do un
prejudiced taxpayers think of this
vast Republican increase? Is it
any wonder that Republican
speakers and papers never men

The Snbmarine Torpedo Boat.
One of the newest types of tor
pedo boat is the submarine. This
style of vessel runs on the surface
until within a mile or two of the
enemy, then becomes partially or
entirely submerged, and complete
ly disnp pears from sight just be
fore discharging a projectile. So
long as its smokestack can be al
lowed to stick out of the
water, the boat is propelled by
gasolene engines. When she dives
thescrews are driven by storage
batteries and an electric motor
Even on surface, these boats run
slowly, none yet built making
more tbau ten or eleven knots or
traveling faster than six or eight
when fully immersed. They are also
much smaller thau the average
destroyer. Boats of this kind are
provided with additional mechan
ism to maintain a level course un
der the surface, to take in and
eject water rapidly, and for mak
ing observations when the hull is
completely out of sight. For this
last purpose, an optical instru
ment of peculiar construction,
known as the periscope, is mount
ed at the very top of a tube which
stands up like a tiny smokestack,
and in which mirrors, or prisms,
transmit the picture to an obser
ver inside the boat. The method
of discharging a torpedo is the
same ;vith a submarine as with
any other torpedo boat. From

American Monthly Review of Re
views for May.

Cured His Mother of Rheumatism.
"My mother has been a suffei-er
for many years with rheumatism,"
says W. H. Howard, of Husband,
Pa. "At times she was unable to
move at all, while at times walk
ing was painful, I presented her
with a bottle of Pain Balm and
after a few applications she de
cided it was the most wonderful
pain reliever she had ever tried,
in fact, she is uever without it
now and is alwavs able to walk.
An occasional application of Pa n
Balm keeps away the pain that
she was 'o.merly troubled with."

Washington, April 28, 1904.
A good deal of latent political
heat made itself manifest in the
House of Representatives during
the closing days of Congress. It
took the form of a bitter contro
versy between Mr. Dalzell, Rep.,
of Penn., and Bourke Cockran,
Dem., of New York. The climax
was reached on Tuesday, when
Mr. Cockran demanded an inves
tigation of the charges which had
been made against him of taking
pay from Mr. Hanna, claiming
that either he, or Mr. Dalzell; was
unfit to hold a seat in the House.
The crowded galleries listened
with hushed attention to the
storm of words provoking loud
cheers or deep silence, according
to the way the wind blew. At bot
tom the controversy was political
and had reference to the coming
campaign. Mr. Dalzell declared
that there is no more interest in
the money question; that the cry
of imperialism has ceased to alarm;
and that the charge of. extrava
gance does not trouble the-American
people. He maintained that
in reality Hon. Champ Clarke,
Hon. John Sharpe Williams and
Mr. Cockran are fiee traders.
However true this may be, there
is likely to be no change of poli
cy. Mr. Cockran's eloquence, as
he said, has for its basis absolute
sincerity, and when that is cou
pled with a gigantic physique, a
rich voice, an Irishman's ready
flow of speech, sparkling with wit,
it is easy for him to take his au
dience off its feet. In any other
place than the House of Repre
sentatives he might have stam
peded his hearers, but he was
held in check by the cool head
and practical wisdom of Speaker
Cannon. Mr. Dalzell is much older
than Mr. Cockran, less pleasing
in his manuer of speaking, but
he has a sharp and bitter tougue.
As to the folly of the Democratic
party advocating frea trade dur
ing the coming campaign, there is
but one opinion among the Re
publicans. Mr. Cockran, through
a ruling of the Speaker on Wed
nesday, failed to have his resolu
tion for an investigation adopted.
The last oratoiical exhibition
in Congress was a good natnred
contest between Mr. Littlefield,
Rep., of Maine, and John SI arpe
Williams, Democratic leader,
Miss., centering about the speech
of Bourke Cockran and the issues
of the campaign. Mr. Littlefield
is one of the strongest men in the
House, a scholar, and a polished
orator and he was greeted with
immense enthusiasm and even ac
clamation. Mr. Williams belongs
to the machine-gun variety, of
moderate calibre, but capable of
very rapid lire. An immense au
dience tilling every nook and cor
ner of the gallaries, witnessed the
combat. Mr. Littlefield practical
ly gave notice that in the corninsr
campaign the Democrats would
be held to the line of Cockran's
free-trade utterance and would
not be allowed to dodge it. Mr.
Williams refused to commit him
self; indeed, he tried to avoid the
position into which the Yankee
persistently cornered bun. It was
a splendid exhibition of intellec
tual adroitness and finesse.
Usually in a so-called Presiden
tial year Congress does not ad
journ until July or August. Thp
present session has been a short
one. oometmng nue i,uu runs
have been passed, less than 150 of
these being public. The great
measures, as the ratification with
Cuba and the decision to build the
Panama canal,; are well known.
During this session of Congress
one Senator and seven members
have died.
With considerable state, assist
ed by officers of the army and na
vy, the President received on
Tuesday, the Chinese Prince.
x lowerv speeches were made and
the Prince was much gratified. He
made a tour of Washington in a
"buzz carr," (as he called the au
tomile), and went to the top
of the Washington monument
where he was enchanted with the
wide prospect. He keeps a jour
nal of his American tour and will
publish it on his return. He is
unusually intelligent and has a
keen eye for Western improve
ments.
As usual the last hours of Con
gress witness a" hurried attempt
to put through various unimpor
tant bills. Many things of inter
est to the public went over until
next December. All action on the
eight hour bill was postponed;
the question of unseating Senator
Smoot could not be decided and
the committee will leave to sit all
summer and visit Utah for papers
aud witnesses. The case of Dr.
Crum, collector of the port of
Charleston, S. C, went over, al
though the Senate held an execu
tive session late Wednesday night
and discussed it. It was' found
that the opposition was too strong.
The House adopted a resolution
asking the Attorney General what
criminal prosecutions have been
instituted against the individuals
found guilty of violatiug the anti
trust law in conuectidn with the
merger decision.
The last day of Congress, al
ways dramatic and sometimes
comic, came near bordering on the
tragic. Congressman Fitzpatrick
had two violent attacks of epilep
sy and was removed from the
i floor of the House to the hospital.
St. Louis Exposition Opened.
St. Louis; April 30. After six
years of preparation and the esti
mated expenditure of $50,000,000
. the exposition by which St. Louis
commemorates- the centennial of
the purchase of the vast
Louisiana territory by Presi
dent Thomas Jefferson was for
mally opened to the public today.
There were exercises during the
morning on the grounds in the
presence of a vast throng, at the
conclusion of which, at 12:15 p. m.
President Roosevelt, at the White
House in Washington, pressed a
key of gold which, by telegraph
communication, started the ma
chinery .of the fair in operation.
This was greeted by the tolling of
Jbells, the crash of bands, a cho
rus of the "Star Spangled Ban
ner," sung by a thousand voices,
and cheers of the throng. The ex
positon was then formally declar
ed open to welcome visitors.
The official hour for the com
mencement of the exercises was
9 o'clock at which time the offi
cials of the exposition, members
of the national commission and
the board of lady managers met
. at the administration building.
Long before this time tho grounds
were filled with nearly half the
population of St. Louis, and the
remainder, apparently,was throng,
ing to the exposition grounds.
To the thousands of the local pop
ulation were added many more
who came in last night and this
morning on excursion trains.
Japs Defeat Russians.
Tokio, May 1. 7 p. ra. After
five days of fightinr, largely with
artillery, the first Japanese army
under General Kuroki, has forced
a crossing of the Yaln river and
today with a gallant infantry
charge covering a frontage of four
miles, it drove the Russians from
Chiu Tien Cheng and the heights
on the right bank of the Iho or
Aide river, which enters the Yalu
from the north almost opposite
Wijn. . The Japanese turned and
left the flank of the Russian posi
tion, and in the battle of today
they swept the new front inter
posed by the Russians to check
their onward movement. The
present position of the Japanese
is a dominating one and they may
force the abandonment of the de
fenses erected by the Russians at
Antung and other poiuts lower
down the river.
Tokio, May 2. (7 a. m.) A
supplemental report from Gen.
Kuroki, covering Sunday's fight
ing says:
"The Russians made two stands.
The enemy's strength included
all of the Third Division, Two
regiments of the Sixth Division,
one cavalry brigade, about forty
quick -firing guns and eight ma
chine. gnus. We have taken twenty-eight
quick-firing gnus, many
rifles,, .much n mmunition, more
thau twenty ' officers, and many
non-commissioned officers aud
men as prisoners. Our casualties
number about 700, and the Rus
sian loss is more than 800 men."
Terrible Railroad Wreck,
Kimswick, Mo., April 30. A
misunderstanding of orders by
the euginoer of train No. 18 on
t he St. Louis, Iron Mountain and
Southern railroad, resulted in a
serious wreck today at Wickes
siding, about a mile and a half
north of here, in which eight men
were killed aud seventeen injur
ed. The engine struck au open
switch, and with the exception of
the last sleeper all the coaches
were derailed. The wreck occurr
ed while the train was going at an
excessive rate of speed.
Last night there was trouble
with a freight car on one of the
fast trains, and it was necessary to
abandon it on the main line, near
Wickes siding. Orders were is
sued for all north and southbound
trains to use the switch at that
point instead of the main line.
Five trains passed the siding dur
ing the interval between the
break down of the freight car and
the arrival of No. 18.
It is stated by Conductor Aus
tin that he lead the order to the
engineer and handed a copy to
him. The officials of the road
cannot account for the fact that
the train approached the siding at
the high rate of speed it must
have done to cause the damage it
did.
The engine turned completely
over, pinioning Engineer Bailey
beneath ton? of steel. Master
Mechanic Tarbor, who was riding
in the engine was also instantly
killed.
Whooping Cough.
"In the spring of 1901 my chil
dren had whopping cough," says
Mrs. D. W. Capps, of Capps, Ala.
'T used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy with the most satisfacto
ry results. I think this is the
best remedy I have ever seen for
whooping cough." This remedy
keeps the cough loose, lessens the
severity and. frequency of the
coughing spells and counteracts
any tendency toward pneumonia.
