THE LUTHERAN CHURCH. CeMmUon or the Anniversary of -' Anther Penance of the Roman ' CathoUe Church. To the Editor of The Observer: A gathering or unusual Interest was the one witnessed In 6t. Mark's Luth eran church here Sunday. A very memorable day for the whole Pro testant church Is October list. Three hundred and ninety-one years ago. In lllf. Martin Luther nailed to the -sstV church door in Wittenberg. Germany. his ninety-five theses against the errors of the Roman Catholic Church. That was the birth day or Protestantism. Thomas Car lylo says when Luther stood before the Imperial Council at Worms, the voice or the world to him was, "Do not desert us," and he did not. Eng land and her parliament was there, America and her freedom. In commemoration of these events, the Lutherans of Rowan county In vited Dr. John E. Whitteker, of Lan caster, Pa., to deliver two addresses, one In China Grove and the other In Salisbury. He paid an eloquent trib ute to Luther, and taking as a theme Pa. 44:1, he showed by historical IMU IOC ritffil UIBl IUC AuiiiViau 'Church has to be called the" mother church or Protestantism. More than one-half of the 1S2.000.000 Protest ants In the world are members of the Lutheran Church, speaking nearly all : .the languages of the world. The .growth In the United States Is more rapid than any denomination. Of the snore than LOSS Lutheran nreachers la America, not one has been found ruilty of heresy. The whole world wide Lutheran Church confesses its faith In the Aurabura- Confession. In this day of tearing down of - creeds It holds firmly to the Word of Ood as a rule of practice and life. Of the . 080. 000 Lutherans In the United States more than 4,000,000 are Slot gathered into congregations. This , shows the great mission problem be ' fore her. One-half the people in the arrest -Mississippi basin are Lutherans. ;The Lutheran Church has a distinc tive church life, sober and conserva tive: her work goes on in a quiet, unobtrusive way! appealing to the .-. sober Judgment and hearts of men. ? Only two other protestant Undies in 'the United States are larger to-day than the Lutheran Church. I W. B. AULL. I China Grove, Nov. 3d. 101. MAKR1AGES. , Swift -Boone, Near Whltwtt.

William Jennings Bryan. : Republican and Democrat. These, are the'capdldates 'that ' count in North Carolina the Prohibition ists, the SociaUsU . and others have not made any headway hate, s Taft or Bryant that Is the -cry. ' Judge Taft paid a visit to the Old North Bute but be never made any votes by bis trip. The people like him but they are Democratic It is said and believed by leading Democrats that he will run 10 ahead' of his local ticket In this county, but his recent visit did not change a vote. North Carolina is Democratic to the core. The farmers are grounded in Democ racy and It will take some great up heaval to bring about any marked chance. Many men vote the Demo cratic ticket unwillingly but an un willing- vote counts Just as mucn a any other kind. Three- months ago hundreds of good Tar Heels swore that they would not support the Dem ocratic nominees, whoever they hap pened to be, but to-day they will go up and do as they have done for forty years. Reconstruction and fu sion days cannot be forgotten, Prov idence township boasts that no white man has voted the Ripubttcan ticket there since 187S. The country peo ple have good memories. They can not bring themselves to the place rhAr, thv fan auoDort Republicans. Therefore, when the vote Is counted to-night. North Carolina will stand as It has formerly stood for the Democ racy. THE DOUBTFUL SECTIONS. The Republicans are making a dee Derate nht lor the Legislature this year for a Republican General Assem bly will mean a Republican United States Senator to succeed Senator Lee S. Overman. A few changes here and there would do the trick. There Is more danger of Republican gains on the legislative tickets throughout the State than one would Imagine. Many Democrats are Indifferent as to party affairs on account of the antl llquor legislation. Some are Indig nant. All of these would like to hit back but they see no way to do 11 effectively save by electing Republi cans to the Legislature. While the Republicans were in convention in Charlotte hosts of wrath y Democrats looked on with a peculiar interest, Drsvina- for a friendly hand. But the hand was not extended; Instead of declaring for local self government the Republicans adopted a platform which restricted even more thandoes the one adopted by the Democrats, and, 10 ' make matters worse for the wavering Democrats, nominated the strictest sort of prohibitionist. After a Mecklenburg rebel had heard what the Republicans aia ne saia, - wen, I shall remain a Democrat for the Republicans handed us a hook with out any bait There is no Interest in the Repub lican State ticket. It is even said in certain Republican circles that the State leaders do not want their tick et to win. Mr. J. El wood Cox, the candidate for Governor, is a good man, but the same, can be said of Mr. Kitchtn. The "business inter ests." whatever that be. Is credited with being ,tlred or the Democrats but they always vote the same way. Mr. Kltchin will get the vote or the "business Interests" this year. THREE CONGRESSIONAL DIS TRICTS. There Is considerable speculation as to three of the ten congressional districts in the State. J. G. Grant. Republican, and W. T. Crawford. Democrat. In the tenth the Aahe vilte district are having a hot fight. The Democratic leaders believe that Mr. Crawford will be elected but- no one can say positively what Grant will be able to do. Mr. Crawford, who la a very popular rough-and-tumble debator, could not get Grant, who Is a quiet, industrious, man-toman canvasser, to meet him on the stump. While Mr. Crawford has made his usual aggressive campaign he has not been able to arouse his supporters as he has done in former campaigns. Grant has made a house-to-house canvass and spoken In every community in the district. Hence, It will take a count 01 tne vote 10 en what the vote will be. The contest Is very close. It was aald last week that tha ReDubllcatts had the advan tage as far as registration counts. The vote In 1104 stood: crawioro, n,i, and J. J. Brltt, 12.110. Buncombe, Cherokee. Clay, Graham, Hayweod, Henderson, Jackson. McDowell. Ma con, Polk, Rutherford, - Bwaln and Transylvania counties make the dis trict. In the eighth the Salisbury-States-vllle district Mr. Richard N. Hacaett and Mr. Charles H. Cowles are run ning neck and neck. The Demo crat Is the favorite la the betting, but Cowles has made a winning cam paign. He has been at work day and night. The last electlonf when Mr. Hacketthad for his opponent Mr. E. Spencer Blackburn, resulted as follows: Hackett. 14.10T. arid Black burn. 11.841. Surry, wit 100. Re publican majority, has been transfer' mi to the fifth district.' leaving the followlna-named counties: Alexander, Allegheny, Ashe, Cabarrus, Caldwell, Iredell, Rowan, staniy, waiauga ana Wilkes. -'-; s - s THE FIFTH IS SAFE. , There has been much talk about the situation in tne fifth district, where Mr. A- t Brooke ia opposea ny six. John Motley Morehead. The normal Democratic majority there la about 4.000, but a faction of his own party made a bard fight against Mr. Brooks before he got the nomination - and there la more r less trouble la the camp yet. . However, It is safe te say that the Republicans will be -defeated by a large majority. Mr. Brooks has made a very vigorous campaign and feels certain 'that he Will have a good lead. His district la compos ed of Alamance,- Caswell, - Durham, Forsyth. Granville. Guilford, Orange, Person. Rockingham, Stokes . and Barry. . ' "---"!". TROUBLE IN THE EAST.

Unwittingly or Not, His Activities Am Directed Solely A gamer air. rj- A Coincidence Which May Be More Than Colnckieuce. . Macon Telegraph. Mr John Temnl Graves Is so truth- ful and high-minded a gentleman that none who know him would question the sincerity or any statement he; would make or attribute to him any other motive than be avowea. dui tne whole effect of his speech last nigni. If it had any effect was to the injury of Mr. Brvaa. whom he exhibited In exceedingly unfriendly, light, while net onoe mentioning the name 01 atr.

It to one of the epochs in' the history of America that comes every four years, . , - . The campaign in county, State and. nation has this year been marked by characteristic activity on every band. Various and sundry elements have been injected which make this elec tion in a manner- unusual. J For the third time'- Mr. William' J. Bryan is asking of the -voters of America lhat he be made the Chief Executive, and many there be who bold to the Idea that this ambition or his will be grati fied at the polls , to-day. It's the same -.old ' duty wtjlch. confronts the people, that of choosing between a Democratic and a Republican Presi dent Though other candidates for this great office have presented them selves on other platforms, one or the other or the two paramount parties Sill have the ' enjoyment of having elr candidate elected. ,' "" 1 THE LOCAL ELECTION, , While the people of this communi ty are mignuy interested in - the na tional outcome, they have a personal duty to perform to-day Just as' much as any people of any part of the country. They have a voice In the matter and are exhorted to open it to day at the polls. The promise Is that the vote In Mecklenburg will be large, but not up to the measure of other times. There is a registration of ap proximately 4,500 within- the confines of Mecklenburg and of this number It to estimated that 4,000 will -vote. The Democratic- and Republican lead era have stirred the voters by peals of eloquence which have been beard from the centre to the" remotest cor ner of the county. The Interest thus duly aroused to believed to be suffi cient to carry practically all those registered to the polls. " The fact, however, that this was an entirely new registration and many registered in order to get their names on the' permanent roll, may - militate In a measure against a full -turn-out to day. There to no particular local in terest In the election, 3 all the Demo cratic nominees for county offices-being sure -of election as- the sparks are to fly upward. As a mere matter of fact only a candidate for the Senate, two for the House and 'three for the board of county education' have been trimmed and sent into the lists by the O. O. P. organisation of Mecklenburg, and. cone of these has been heard to venture the prediction that he will be elected. '- - , k,. v "' WANT TO, INCREASE STRENGTH. Chairman James A. ' Bell, of the Democratic organisation, la his mes sages to the voters, which have 'been! barely exceeded in number by the - mes sages of President Roosevelt to the late Congress, has urged a full vote for the purpose of Increasing Mecklenburg's strength In the ' party "councils. The county only had 11 votes in the last Stats convention, this being based on the popular vote which was given Governor Glerin four years ago. If all the Democrats In the county will go. to the polls to-day and cast their ballots, in the next State convention this county's strength will be notably increased, probably to as many as 10 votes. Counties get -one convention vote for every 110 .popular votes and the Democrats claim" that out of the 4.100 registered,, at least, 4,404 votes should be -Democratic. :. x .
