THREE CIASSES PARTI COiA RL Y. ' The reat preponderance of North Carolina Democrats will next month vote the national and State tickets and there is no danger that both will not nave handeome majorities. Hence The Observer haa addressed Itself primarily to the congressional, legis lative and county tickets, some of which may be lost In districts and counties where there are really Demo cratic majorities, through party de tection or mere indifference. We beg to reiterate what haa previously been aid as to these. The Democratic tide throughout the country Is rising and whatever else may happen the Demo cratic representation In the next House la certain to be larger than It Wis la the last. While the Demo crat of other Sta es, where there is room for improvement, will do bet ter, It would never do for North Caro lina to do worse. It cannot do more but it should not be content to do Jen than maintain Its aolld represen tation unbroken. This Is said with special -reference to the eighth , and tenth districts and we avail ourselves of, the privilege which belongs to a near neighbor to say it. So much for the Congressmen. The" JDemocrats xjf ; every county in which, iheir legislative ticket 4 'con tested should reflect upon the possi bilities) of a Republican Legislature. The State needs no more of them. It 1s ah important that the law-making bower should continue with the Democratic party and that both houses of the General Assembly should be harmonious politically; that there should not be a Republican House to balk a Democratic Senate nor a Republican Senate to balk a Democratic House. Apart from gen eral considerations the next Legisla ture is to elect a United States Sen ator. The term of Senator Overman expires the 3d of next March. Stick a pin here. " Closer to the people, however, than Congressmen or legislators are the county officers, the commissioners and Others. They have to do with the money of the county and the people are' In personal contact with thorn every day. They should be men of approved character and ability and by, the county offices, moreover, the party rewards Its local workers and maintains its organization and effi ciency. To vote for the county officers should be a chief incentive to draw a Democrat to the polls, next month. submitted for the deliberate consid eration Of the people. - It eeems that the most powerful campaigner the Kepubllcans have on the atump In Governor Hughes, , of 3CW Tork, who has quit his own 8Ut and haa been 'canvassing the West. Undoubtedly he has done a good deal of -havoc with Democratic prospects in that section. Reproved by one of M fellow party men for giving him self t Other States, to the neglect of hilt own. he said, the other day, that it Is more important that Taft should be elected than that he should. It was nigh speech. But his mentor was right. It looks as If Governor Hughes is nimseir to iau outsiae ine breastworks. Representatives of the law at Spar tanburg.' Including militia, deserve great credit for the manly firmness with which' they did their duty aod averted a threatened lynching. The mot '.'was. not , ions; In understanding that here -were law officers ,who had no- Idea of letting themselves . be "overpowered.

CALDWHX , I. A. TOHPJKXNS v OCR U3SS iOTOCS POUTIC , J Political -campaigns are not In all respects as they wera some' two deW cades or more ago. Per one think, they are much less picturesque. ' Ob eervlng with pleasure that a Repub lican club of Wyandotte, Kan., will appearin .full Indian costume, war paint and all, when Mr. Taft speaks at Topeka next week, The Boston Transcript falls Into a vein of re gretful reminiscence. "Our political demonstrations" muse this venera ble contemporary, "have lost much of the scenic and spectacular since people became business-like enough to attend demonstrations in their 'everyday clothes.' Parades and pro cessions are not what they were. A business men's procession In New York may be impressive from its representation of the opinion Of trade, commerce, and finance, and It exerts a moral Influence that Is pow erful, if not decisive; tout, neverthe less, It does not delight the eye nor tickle the fancy as did the torchlight paradea. These have hereabouts all but fallen Into desuetude, as the 'still hunt' haa supplanted display, and there are no indications of young enthusiasts panting to be organized into 'batallion8' either at its own ex pense or on funds contributed by statesmen. Perhaps the older way yielded to the process of changing oplaion and cannot be recalled, but If It were possible of revival the nights would be filled with music and the darkness almost dispelled by the glare of thousands of torches. Those of us who recall the great torchlight parades of the past recall them through the medium of golden, rosy memories of youth. Looking back, we see the 'Wide-Awakes' marching under the Lincoln banner, the 'rail splitters' carrying stage exes; the Bell and Everett paradors, who Jangled as they marched, so many and so varied the bells they wore, bore or guarded; various Douglas organiza tions. Hereabouts the torchlight pa rade was a feature until compara tively recent campalgna, but the last occasion on which the Idea was util ized to the extent of spectacular pos sibilities was in 1884, when 'the Plumed Knights' revived some of the glories of the past" It Is sad in deed. Mr. Roosevelt, with his picturesque personality and excessively pictur esque performances, might have been expected to Inspire a revival of the spectacular In political demonstra tions, but he has not done so. Where are those torchlight processions with bands which rang high among the vivid childhood recollections of per sons now aged thirty and upward? Where are the lofty flag poles which stood In the public square of nearly every town and whose slender tops. like the slender tops, of Hood's fir trees, ''seemed close against the sky?" The Red Shirts of South Caro lina and southeastern North Carolina were picturesque enough, after a fashion.' within recent years, but, hap pily, the period of their existence has gone by. Unless politics is to become greatly weakened In its not least im portant function of providing popu lar entertainment, it should be guard ed against degeneration Into a feature lessness rellevable Only by mud slinglng. The Republican club of Wyandotte county, Kan., sets a good example. We hope that its Initiative will not be without followers. WHERE THE TRUSTS ARE SORE. It Is safe to expect much talk from Mr. Taft's suggestion that the cor porations of the country should be divided into two classes one having a capitalization of six million dollars and over and the other a less capital ization, and that the former class should be subject to the supervisory power of a Federal bureau. This ap parently goes .beyond Mr. Bryan's plan for cataloguing trusts on a per centage basis, which would not touch any corporations at all except the really huge ones. There can never have been another Republican presidential nominee Mr. Roosevelt played double four years ago in whom the trusts felt so little Joy as they now feel in Mr. Taft. They are quite clear that the Republican party remains the party for them, and they are equally clear in wanting a Republican Senate and a Republican House. Mainly because Mr. Taft is a Republican, they prefer him In the White House to Mr. Bryan, but at this point their enthusiasm vanishes. Thy have a hard choice. The only consolations are that Mr. Taft, on one side, recognises "good" trusts and that Mr. Bryan, on the other, would be handicapped if elect ed because of a contlnulngly Repub lican Senate for at least two years. If the trusts were anybody else, we could almost feel sorry for them. For some time idle freight "cer( have been diminishing in number.) During the latter half of September' the aggregate waa reduced by 4 0,09 9. The total number not In use oa Sep tember 10th is stated to be 115,f 71. a compared with no fewer, than 411. 21 last April. Since October 1 there have unquestionably been many other idle cars re-commissloned. These are decreases of the right sort. Business conditions quite normal cannot bo expected for some time yet.- but, the progress back to them . la certainly encouraging .- ' . . - .- v---: ; Fowid CnTlty of Warder. " Opcllka, Ala, Oct li.

Close Attention la Sympathy WUU Labor. - - 'V'1 -. '. ' : . Akron, tO Oct It. eventeen Ohio towns heard and saw . .William -.M. Taft to-day. Ho talked fsom Cinclnv natl to Akron, through a portion of the State conceded .'to have been a Foraker stronghold, with a portion of the territory Democratic. While there was not the same vim and snap to the enthusiasm which the candi date got in ' some, ' portions of the West he was listened to by large crowds, numbering - thousands in many places, and what he said was well applauded. There were no shouts for Bryan heard. . The impor tant speeches of the day were at Zanesvllle, Cambridge and. Akron. In his Zanesvllle speech Mr. -Taft went after both Mr. Bryan and Mr. Gom- pern. "Mr. Bryan goes around the coun try saying I am the father of injunc tions," declared Mr. Taft. "It Is not true. I did not invent injunctions or injunctions In labor disputes. But it is quite natural that Mr. Bryan should make the mistake, because in a let ter he wrote to the district attorney Of Belmont, O., he says he has net read my decisions," said tho candi date. "I laid down the law and I laid down the principles," he said, "upon which the labor organizations In this country have since built up their prosperity and their usefulness, and instead of saying that I am an enemy, recognise that I am one of the great est benefactors labor has had. I de cided a case against the Brotherhood of Engineers and the brotherhood condemned me. In four years they got into court in St. Louis and they had to cite my case to induce the court to withdraw the Injunction there because I had laid down the principles upon which they could or ganise, could have their officers, could have their funds, could go on and conduct strikes under advice of the officers, and in that case they in duced, on the authority of my de cisions, the Judge to withdraw his In junction and they went ahead and won the strike. I have been some thing besides a Judge. I had 30,000 laborers under me on the Panama canal. We had the question of wages and I decided against the la borers. What did they do. I gave them the reasons for deciding the way I did. They elected me a mem ber of their union. Why? Because I am fair to labor." At Canal Dover, while making his labor speech the candidate was In terrupted by an exclamation from the audtetnee declaring: "Labor un ions are gone." "They are not gone," replied Mr. Taft. "The labor organizations to day are more prosperous, have more money, have more Influence, have more lawful control than they ever had in their lives before. The Ameri can Federation of Labor has increas ed Its numbers one hundred per cent. The International Typographical Un ion in lts'nnual report showed an in crease from 88,000 to 45,000. They paia in ij.ouo.ouo. Ttiey had 1260, 000 in their treasury and they never had such prosperity or Influence in their lives and the basis upon which inose organizations have been con structed are- the legal lines which I laid down in my legal opinions." Reforms by Cotton Exchange. New Orleans, La.. Oct. 12. With in structions to make reforms In the cot ton futures' contract of the New Or leans cotton exchange, a committee was appointed to-day by member of the exchange. The, committee will confer with farmers, brokers and cdt ton spinners throughout the South, and will also investigate the action of directors of the exchange, eliminat ing all stained cotton, below middling as tenderable grades on future con tracts. Aged Man Killed In Railroad Shops. Meadville, pa., Oct 18. Samuel Hainen, 66 years old, was killed thlt evening in the lrle railroad shops, where he had heen a foreman to years. He was the father of Miss Anna Hainen, private secretary to Helen Gould and Joseph Hainen, of Greensboro, N. C, superintendent of motive power on the Southern Rail way. 'For The Observer. LOVE AND THE PHOTO. While Love was perusing an album all through A face there appeared his attention to glue; The more he would gase, The more his amuse At beauty displayed on that photographed page. Enchantment seemed thsrs in that beau tiful face Where, searching, no blemish or fault could he trace. The cheeks and the eyes Looked fresh from the skies, And caused admiration within him to rise. The brow was so penciled, the mouth was so bowed. The whole was chiseled with beauty that showed So perfect and rare. From her left to har hair. That naught it. he thought so adoringly fair.

SOUR WOOD HONET AT ITS BEST. tsourwood honey is considered the finest product of the bee. At the town of Jonesvllle, on the Tadkin side of the river from Elkln, lives Mrs. Em ma Bhugart, the most.lnterestlng far mer in the world, who, throughout the piedmont region of the South, is Known as "the sourwood honey queen." No man being smart enough to do It she capitalized the bee, and Instead of slaving eternally, made him work for her. t "How much sourwood honey did you snake last year?' I asked Mra Shugart. "Close to fi.000 worth." "That much in one season?" "Tea, indeed, and I will sell pi ore than that this year, aay about $1,100." I could not realise the meaning of this at first. The bees over which Mrs. Shugart keeps watch made something like 10,000 pounds of pure sourwood honey last season. That is worth more than SB bales of cotton this fall. "How long have you been In'the honey business?" 'Mra Shagart was asked. "We always bad a few hives of the black bee. keeping; them in the old fashioned 'box hive, but about IS years ago I went over to Iredell county and got from Mr. DeWltt Bharpe a colony of Italian bees, and Italianised all of mine. The next spring I had seven hives, and at the end of two years, fifteen. Ever since I have kept im proving the "blood, and Increasing my stock, until, now. I have 125 colonies. Last year I sold 14 hives, and this year I will sell 16 or 17." "Ia the Italian a better bee for sour wood honey than the black bee?" "The Italian bee is more indus trious, and does better work. In a bad year the black bee loafs." THE PRESIDENTIAL LINE-UP SUNDAY - New Tork Herald, 11th.

Those who visit the first-class gro cery stores bave, no doubt, seen large tin buckets, bearing the name of Mrs. Bhugart Che puts ber honey in buck ets, holding one-half gallon, a gallon. two gallons and so on. - Messrs. Alex Chatham., the father of the well known Chatham boys, and Rich. Chatham, accompanied me to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Shugart, where we tarried and learned about bees. An interesting feature of Mrs. Shu gart's business is that she scatters her workers about the country so that they will have more sourwood to gath er from. Several people keep colonies for her. While at Roaring Gap I asked old man A. M. Smith, the head of the Smith family, If bee trees were plen tiful, and his reply was: "The woods are full of them. A man not far from here found a dosen or more this year. "How much honey does a tree of wild bees make?" I inquired. Hpounds," was the reply. Some dear city-bred reader may not know what a bee tree is, therefore, I shall elaborate a little for bis edi fication. Bees swarm when left to do as they please. A queen and a brood leave the parental roof, when It be comes crowded, and take up house keeping on their own hook. Now anl then Instead of settling on a tree limb, or some country boy's head, they sail away te the woods, and locate in a hollow tree. None but those that have "the call of the wild" do thla In the mountains, where honey Is so valuable, such wayward bees are watched, and, at the proper time, robbed. "One fellow," said Mr. Richard Chatham to me," locate 15 trees on my mountain lands last year."
