(Special to Tfc Staft) - x Rstleigh May SI. The paasihg f th eoond week preceding the primary on Tun 5 failed to develop anything new In the political situation in tne state no far as candidates ror state u gresslonal offices are concerned. " . The only matters of special interest during the past week was the filing of the expense accounts of the various candidates and the appearance of re publican aspirants for the presidential nomination in the. state. The expense acaunts show that Mr. Morrison has spent a little more money than have the other two candidates in the very intensive campaign he has waged during the past five weeks. The Charlotte man passed the six thousand dollar mark. Mr. Page spent $5,000 and Mr. Gardner crssed the $4,000 mark in expenses, accrding t his - re- prts. . Neither of the candidates have a very wide margin left over to epend In the second primary. i No Material Change. . The standing of the thi;ee candidates reveals no perceptible change to the general public. Anything is likely to happen and about the only thing liat would prove surprising to the political observer would be for any one of the candidates to get the nomination in the first primary. It is possible, of course, but very improbable that ne of the candidate has a chance to win out in "the first primary. Even the most par tisan friends of candidates admit that this is improbable. Both Morrison and Gardner claim that they will lead in the first primary, while Mr. Page's manager says that the Bisce man will get -In the second primary, without inti mating which of the other two he will nose out of the second race, and watch the race Page makes in the secnd pri mary, is the admonition of Manager Charles Boss. It i generally admitted that Page will be a mighty hard man to beat in the second primary. That has been the general opinion all along, for he Is probably the second ehpice of larger number of voters than either' of the other two men. But the old timers in the plitical game believe that Page will run third and will not have a chance- to get the benefit f these vo ters "who prefer him as a second choice That, however, is not worrying the Page supporters, who claim that Page strength Is not the noisy variety, and that he will fool the old timers worse than they have ever been fooled in thei lives. ' . The opinion as to whether Morrison or Gardner will lead in the first .pri naary if dtvide. Friends of, both, men are now claiming the edge on the sit uation. It Is generally admitted both by more or less disinterested people and by some- of the friends of the- Shelby man that he is not as strong now as he was two months ago. That of course is emphatically denied by the managers and workers for Gardner, but there isn't any doubt about the general impression being that Gardner lost vote rather than gained them when he refused tp answer the questionnaire of the labor unions and the farmers. The "Lesser Lights. As to the candidates for the smaller offices in the state there is little talk or interest. It Is generally conceded that M. L. Shlirman will have little trouble In repeating his performance of the last election in defeating David P. Dillinger for the nomination for com misuioner of labor and printing. Ship, man has returned from the west on which trip he visited Gaston" county, home of his opponent. There he was assured that he would again defeat Dil Ilnger in his home county. likewise , the concensus of opinion is that Rtacey . VT. Wade will have little trouble in get ting: the- nomination for Insurance com missioner. Letters coming to Wade from every section of the state, assure him ef the nomination. There are so many candidates fo? the Jobs Col. Penn Wood is . giving np, as state auditor, that it Is practically im possible to tell who is in the lead There has been more talk of Baxter Durham, D. A. McDonald, Col. D. F. Boyd and J. P. Cook. . All of these men have made an active campaign, and possibly have a little the lead, although w. P. JEVoodley has done some good work and may nose some of these- can. didates out. ; That Associate, Justice W. A. Hoke will be nominated to succeed himself ' 6xi thk supreme court bench Is the gen eral opinion, "but if sentiment has crys tallbed as to the candidates , for the other place on the bench; news of the ryrtalljation has not seeped through to Raleigh.-- The race for the second llaee lies between Judge W. J. Adams, of Carthage, and B. F. Loner, of States vllle, and former Judges W. P. Stacey, of Wilmington; Owen H. Gulon, of New Bern: N. J. Rouse, of Klnston, and Prof. N. Y. Gully, dean of the law depart ment of Wake Forest college. All of these, men have been making an active campaign, but if any of them have se cured a very pronounced lead over the others It i Impossible to tall It now. The only other state of ficj for wbleh there I a contest is that of state treas urer. B. F. Renfrow, of West Raleigh, is seeking- to displace Benjamin R, Lacy, and ha been active in the cam paign to the extent of more than a thousand dollars. Mr. Lacy "has not been inactive, but he has not spent a great deal of 'mosey x on the primary, becalse, ' he says, lie ; did not have It It to spend. He believes that he'Will be an easy winner over his opponent. Should Henry B. Thompson, or Wilson county, defeat Commissioner W. A. x Graham for the headship of the de partment of agriculture it would be a big surprise to the folks hereabouts The Incumbent has a good many op ponents, but Mr. Thompson is not well enough known generally to take ad vantage of the opposition that mSeht develop.. i :; - ; : . Presidential Possibilities, v The democrats will have no oppor tunity to express their preference for a candidate for the presidency, for only SenatorSimmons entered his name aa a candidate, and he was certified as the nominee of the party. The delegates to the national convention will be In strucie"$o. vote for Senator Simmons as a favorite-son candidate on the first ballot and then they will b at liberty to switch, to any other candidate they desire. - The vote of this state, In all probability, , win, go to W;G. WTeAdoo after tbe first few ballots A r The republicans will have a riore in teresting: and a lttle Wt more compli cated time in thefr cfcotee f er the' pres ideaey. The atattt convention and some of the district conventions instructed for Judge Peter Cf Pritchard, as the fa. vortte soa candidate- of the republican party, , but the Ashevflle Jurtsth failed to qualify for the nom I nation. or for the raoe in the primary, while two of the other presidential candldatea did Quali fy, so the name of'Fritohard was -left off the official primary ballot and the names of General Leonard Wood and Senator Hiram:. Johnson. ..er-e. pu. on. Republicans will have the opportunity of casting their votes ; for either of these -two candidates. ' - The North . Carolina delegates to the republican convention' will have to leave either on the day of the primary or the Aa-r foUewiner in order to reach Chicago on the opening date of the convention. It will be impossible for them to secure certified results from the presidential primary in North Car olina, so that if they desire to" heed the result of the .primary they will have to fellow newspaper ana outer unptii cial reports of the results in thig state. To all intents and purposes they will in all nrobabilltv be uninstructed for they do not have Jo follow the primary results unless the vote is certified by the state board of elections.

They learned too, why "Swell," Grand," "Gee," and other op-tlaws are not allowed to live in respectable grammar row.- - SHE WILL LOVE YOU Take along a package of Florida- Fruit Gum and she can't resist you.
