Special to The Oberver. Greensboro, Feb. 5. The Washing ton special in "this morning's Observer concerning the reported fight between Ftate Chairman Adama and District Attorney Holton for the control of the Republican organization In North Car olina "was read here with a degree of Interest, though it created no special surprise, for a contest between these two leading members of the party has been predicted for some time, Mr, Holton refused to take any active part in the bitter contest waged in he Republican camp two years ago, because he had no particular choice as between Judge Adams and ex-Con-crressman Blackburn, and since that lme there have been many rumors that the district attorney.-who is an nstute politician, desired to again head the Republican organization in this State. Mr. Bryant's prediction that the next Republican State convention will be fully as lively; as the convention of 10 is given credence here. Should Mr. Holton enter the light for the chairmanship, or lend his Influence to some one else for the position, he will have the fleht of his life on his hands, for hla opponent .Chairman Adams, will have the united and en fhuslastic support of the forces con trolled by Mr. E. C. Duncan, national committeeman from tnis btate ana former collector of Internal revenue for the eastern district. By virtue of his position on the national com mittee. Mr. Duncan is. in many par - tlculars. the key to the situation In Republican politics In North Carolina. He does not love Mr. Holton and doubtless would take especial delight Jn fighting the district attorney. Judge Adams Is out of the city to day, and therefore no statement could be obtained from him. A gentleman who played an Im portant part Jn the light against Judge Adams two years ago says there will be a different alignment of the fac tions this year, the State chairman receiving the support of some of his former foes and losing the allegiance r.f some who stood by him In 190. Here In Guilford county, where Judgo Adams did not receive a single vote In bis fight for the chairmanship, his own precinct even fulling to permtt litm or any friend of his to attend the county convention as a delegate, tho hatchet apparently has been burled, Tmt those who claim to know say the v-eapon lies In a very shallow grave. In this connection It is of Interest to note that there are Indications that Oullford county Republicans will sup Trt "Uncle Joe" Cannon for the pres idential nomination. They desire to do this as a matter of sentiment, the antnrrat of the House of Representa tive havinr been born "within a few miles of Greensboro, JlCMOR OP CHANGE AS TO MAIL.

Cost Nothing to Try. Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier In - nature, but few realize its value when taken Into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal Is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; It Is not a drug at all. but simply absorbs the gases and Impurities always present in the stomach and Intestines . and carries them out of the system. . Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating pn lons and other odorous vegetables Charcoal effectually clears and Im- oroves the complexion. It whitens the teeth and 'furtUer acts a,a.Jiatural and eminently safe. cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gaies Which collect in the stomach and bowels; It Usinferts the mouth and throat from the poisons of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal In one the the Lo- form or another. ' but probably best charcoal and the most for -noney is In Stuart's Charcoal enes: they nre composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoat fend other harmless antiseptics In tablet form or rather In the form of large nieasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The dally use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condi tion of the general health, better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of It Is that no nossible harm can result from their continued use, but, on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician. In speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: "I ad vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all nstlents suffering from gas In stom ach and bgwela, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath. mouth and throat; I also believe the liver Is greatly benefited by the dally tine of them: they cost but twenty ive cents a box at drug stores, and although In some sense a patent prep aration, yet I believe I get more and better charcoal In Stuart's Charcoal Lozenge than In any of the ordinary charcoal tablets."
