Greensboro, Aug. 25. Although
- there was no meeting last night, as
l ublished, of the Cannon Club at the
Assembly Hall of the Benbow Hotel, I
' and no trace of a meeting anywhere
else could be found, your correspon-
; dent was informed this morning by
Mr. Crouch, Congressman Blackburn's
- piivate secretary, and the apparent
"daddy" as wrell as wet nurse of the
"boomlet," that a very enthusiastic
meeting was held in the Tar Heel
: Club room. He said ' that at " least
fifty names had been sent in from the
: city and from sections in the country

only into Cannon clubs, but into or
ganization for the promotion of Re-
. publican interests in the coming
' campaign. He said that steps were
. taken to see that every county in
the State was organized in like man-
ner, the Central Headquarters being
in Greensboro. He would not vouch-
; safe the name of a solitary individual
who. was placed on the committees
or furnish the name of a single new
member who had been added to the
original number present Tuesday
night.
From the scope of the plan for an
that the anti-Adams, pro-Blackburn
. element here and elsewhere, not
trusting to the regular party ma-
chinery of the organization, are go-
ing ahead on their own hook, under
- the guise of "Cannon boomers" and
. ho thpm nn indfmendent Dartv or
ganization of their own, in defiance
. of their defeat at the Republican
. State convention. It is an ambitious
. scheme, possibly mutinous, but it is
.in keeping with other bold and dasn-
ing precedents - of the only Republi
can Congressman from the State. In
the meantime, it will be discreetly
observed, that the Congressman's
-lieutenants here, discreetly and dip
lomatically declare, that the "Hon.
. S pence" knows nothing about it, ana
.is, not a Cannon man.
The insurgents, however, make no
bones in declaring that the heads of
the organization, State and county,
ire doing nothing whatever to ad
vance the principles of Republican
ism, and after waiting patiently until
patience has ceased to be a virtue,
.to see what would be done, they have
come to the conclusion that unless
somebody loving Republican prin
ciples more than Federal pie, begins
.stirring, there will be no stirring
cone.

the grandfather clause in the suf

May . 1st to. September 1st. Not only
had they failed to do this, he said,
but not a single Republican paper in
the State had been furnished this as
a part of the platform, and it was be

60,000 STRIKE IN SPAIN.
Guard Fire on Crowd Who Attempt to
Stop Train, Killing Two.
Madrid, Aug. 25. The Labor Feder
ation has declared a general strike at
Bilbao, which means that 60,000 per
sons have quit work. The outgoing
trains are packed with fleeing inhabi
tants. The newspapers have been
forced to suspend publication.
Strikers from Bilbao are visiting
small surrounding aowns in order to
persuade workmen to join the genrral
strike.
Villagers at Castro-Urdiales,
'along the route of the railroad, at-
tempted to stop a train. They were
prevented from doing soby the guards
who fired on them, killing two and
wounding three others, one seriously.
The military governor of Bilboa has
made another effort to arbitrate the
dispute between the operators and
miners. The strikers reiusea to witn
draw their demands for. shorter hours
and no settlement is in sight.
King Alfonso and Queen Victoria ar
rived at Bilbao on the royal yacht
Giralda, from England. They have
gone to San Sebastian. This is a
mountain resort near the Spanish
French line, of which Bilbao is the port
town.

TO ALL COTTON FARMERS.
Association Not Hurt by Conduct of
Reeretarv Will Choose Another
Man and Go on to Victory.
To Editor The News.
The -public in general are greatly
interested as to what the Southern
Cotton Association will do in the case
of Secreatry Cheatham, that this mat
ter will be disposed of in a credetable
manner to the Association, may be
depended upon.
Pres. Jordan when he learned that
there was a suspicion that an official
of the Association ( had engaged in
"wire shop" speculation, appointed a
committee to investigate the matter.
Mr. Jno. P. Allison of Concord, was
one of the committee, he can, be trust-
ed by .any man in the state of North
Carolina, we know that he is a most
loval supporter of, and that he is an
earnest worker for- the .success of the
Cotton Association, if he tells the pub
lic that Mr. Cheatham has been specu
lating in "futures," we may rest asured
that it is so. and he will be among the
first men to call for the retirement of
the present, secretary and the appoint
ing of another man
Mr. Allison being a member of the
executive committee will attend the
meeting of this committee at Hot
Springs Ark. on Sept. 6th. There the
matter of Mr. Cheatham and his specu
lating will be disposed of to the satis
faction of every one. The other com
mitteemen are of the same high charac
tcr as is our Mr. Allison, they will do
what is right and proper.
The Southern Cotton Association al
ready has been of untold value to the
United States. The official.-? will not
allow any circumstances whatever to
bar its future influence for good. The
fight against the future gambling shops
will be waged with r. determination
to drive these abominable places out
of business. Thev are the greatest
curse of the South. They cause sui
cides, bankruptcies, defalcations, em
bezzlements, forgeries, lying and
stealing.
The whole of the United States is
effected by these villianous "wire
shops" and there is a growing senti
ment against them in every section of
the Union. Cotton oil men, cotton mill
men, bankers, merchants in fact all
classes clamor for their destruction.
The Cotton Association will go be
fore the legislatures of all the cotton
growing states and endeavor to do as
was done in Georgia, drive out the so
called legitimate "exchange" with the
little 2x4 bucket-shop. Both are im
pediments to honest business trans
actions and must go.
The manhood of the South must now
come to the front and sell the cotton
product of 1906 for a price that will
continue the prosperous times we have.
Let us all join with the farmer and
demand a square deal.

Mt.
Vernon Girl, Alone in House, Has
Exciting Experience.
New York, Aug. 25. Miss Bella Da
vis, fifteen years old, of No. 130 South
Fourth avenue, Mount Vernon, han an
exciting experience last evening. - She
was alone in the house,' her parents
having gone out for the evening. Go
ing Jo her room, she lay down on the
bed and began to read.
Hearing a noise, she got up, looked
under the bed and found a man there,
paralyzed with fright, she screamed.
Patrolman Streeser, across the street,
heard her and ran into the house. As
he entered her room the man emerg
ed from under the bed and made dash
for the door. He was arrested and
proved to be Walter Burrow, a negro.
He claimed to have mistaken the
room for his own.

was in Mr. Davis store, under the
living rooms, and patted the girl on
the shoulder, saying she was a nice
girl. This she resented.

Do Vou Want to Know
What You Swallow ?
There Is a growing sentiment' in this
Country in favor of medicines of known
composition. It- is but natural that one
should have some interest in the compo
sition .of that which he or she is. expected
to swallow, .whether it be food, drink, or,'
medicine. . . . xr j
Recognizing this growing disposition
on the part of the public,' and satisfied
mai xne lunest publicity can only add to
the well-earned reputation of his medi
cines, Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. YM
has "taken time by the fgrelock," as it
were, and is publishing broadcast a list
f all the ingredients entering into his
leading medicines, the "Golden Medical
Discovery " the popular liver invigorator,
stomach tonic, blood purifier and heart
regulator; also of his "Favorite Prescrip
tion" for weak, over -worked, broken
down, nervous and invalid women.
This bold and out-spoken movement on !
the part of Dr. Pierce, has, by "showing '
exactly what his well-known medicines '
are composed of, completely-disarmed all
harping critics who nave heretofore un- 1
Iustly attacked them. A little pamphlet
as been compiled, from the standard
medicaid authorities of all the several
schools of practice, showing the strongest
endorsements by leading medical writers
of the several ingredients which enter Into
Dr. Pierce's medicines. A copy of this
little book is mailed free to any one de
siring to learn more concerning the valu
able, native, medicinal plants which enter
into the composition of Dr. Pierce's med
icines. Address Dr. .fierce as above.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are tlnr, sugr-ar-coated
anti-bilious granules. They reg
ulate and invigorate Stomach, Liver and
Bowels. Do- not beget the " pill habit," but
cure constipation. One or two each day for
a laxative and regulator, three or four for an
active cathartic. Once tried always in favor.

Dr. Register's N?w Auto.
Dr. E. C. Register some time ago
ordered a very handsome and expen
sive automobile, gasoline propelled, for
use in his practice. The machine ar
rived a few" days ago, and when the
Doctor went down to examine it, he
discovered that he had received not a
new machine, he says, but a second
hand one which he has been compelled
to refuse. The manufacturers of the
machine have been notified and unless
they furnish Dr. Register" a,, machine !
which he considers .to be entirely new
and up-to-contract, he will not accept
it. Futhermore if the manufacturers
persist in trying to make Dr. Register
accept the machine now here, there
will probably be some interesting de
velopments. The machine that was
brdere:! by Dr. Register was one of the
finest made, and his disappointment
upon examining the auto shipped to
him, has been ouite keen. Dr. Register
does net think that there , is much re
semblance between ' the auto shipp"e
and the one that he ordered.
Mr. John Short was quite painfully
bruised this afternoon by a fall from
his bicycle while crossing a street car
track. : .'- .
