This is not the time to discuss the causes for what happened. It Is the time, however, to say that nothing nut narm is to come to what is lert of the Vi mocratlc party by accusations i .., ', told you so." There are those who , will think that if another than Mr. Bryan had been nominated the result would have been different; nobody , y knows thai; and nothing Is to be gain ed by talking about it The thing to ',' do is to gather up the pieces and this ' process will not be hastened by ln , ternal quarrel In trying to fix the ' fclame for yesterday. The State? The Democratic ma jority Is reduced and It Is to be fear :. ad that we have lost the eighth and tenth congressional districts, though this Is not certain. s:' As to the county of Mecklenburg, Its Democracy did nobly. SIR. BRVAX IX DEFEAT. The case of Hon. William Jennings V Bryan is one full of pathos. From ' Whatever motive, whether selfish am , fcltion as his enemies assert, or an un- Selfish desire as he claims, to be In a position to serve the interests of the people, there is no doubt that he was keenly anxious to be elected Presl- slent never so anxious a this year, - ttW SO confident as in the campaign Jost ended. His disappointment, therefore, in the result of yesterday's election must approach anguieh of . tnlnd, and be the keener by reason of ths fact which must be perfectly ap- '. parent to him that his last opportun ity to be President has passed. Men r have run for this offlce three times .but none four, and Mr. Bryan's name bow be dropped, no doubt at his r own instance, from the list of the . ; available candidates of the future. ;Crly In the last momenta of the ... cstmpaign he realized that his star was about to set; one reading his V.' Pedh at MarysviHe. Kan., Monday night, could detect b' tw een the lines ' . that he had seen the finder of fate. ' -Eyery nian with a heart in him must ...feel very sorry for thu man whose hope of twelve years has been dashed. . But he made a magnificent fight . Its spoke splendidly with fine abll fty, with Imperturbable r;ood temper, ani under such physical strain as no Other man could have endured. From East, to West he traveler! In whirl wind fashion, making speech after speech dally, his physical energy un abated, his superb nerve unshaken. He went down but went with his face to the foe and his flag flying. 80 then: "The harder yeu're thrown, why, the higher you bounce; He proud of your blackened eye! It isnt the fact that you're licked that . eonnts: . If s how did you light and why? . "And though you be dons to the death, what then? If yon tattled ths aest you could.

The death f prominent young a whose body had been ' placed . a a Seaboard Air Lin Bailway ck Is attributed by a Georgia . -oners jury to "parties unVnowa.,t : safe to say, however, that these . no i-s than the deceased sad n.trr.t.rs of the Jury, are all face inimical to dust, mud and other forms of wear and inconvenience might be employed with results more or less good. Make the roads water proof with substances much used for waterproof! ivg purposes; in brief, roof them. To this end crude oil, tar and oil or tar preparations have been ap plied. Oil, as an experience of Char lotte with it not long ago would in dicate, is simply a short-lived dust layer and, for the rest, more of a nuisance than anything else, Noth ing short of modern streets was Char lotte's need, but oil certainly did It self no credit In its trial here. Among the world's road-builders tar has a better reputation and more friends, and yet the use of tar is. likewise, attended by serious drawbacks. At a recent European road congress opin ion on this subject was very much divided. We set forth the various contentions as gathered from cable dispatches. Tar, lta strongest supporters agreed, i'an be successfully laid only under Ideal conditions. The road surface must be perfectly dry and as neurly even as possible. A damp or uneven surface means quick peeling. But many of the delegates declared that notwithstanding every precaution which might be taken in Its favor tar is a poor expedient, usually leaving the road after a short time In worse condition than before. "In a pro longed period of wst weather, says a summary of the anti-tar' people's views, "the tar mixtures dissolve Into a foul, corrosive mud that ruins every thing It touches. In dry weath er It turns the dust Into an irritating chemical powder that Inflames the eyes and the mucous membrane. A tarred road Is dangerous for auto mobiles, as It facilitates side slipping, and for horses, which slip about pitiably on tarred Inclines. Several road surveyors have called attention to this point in papers read before the Road Congress. The system has been given a long trial, ad has prov ed unsatisfactory In every respect. It Is high time that the spreading of tar poultices on the road should be forblddefa by the authorltiea People with tar for sale have exploited the public quite long, enough. Only a small part of this Indictment need be true to condemn "tar poultices" very effectually. Tar In such forms Is at best an extremely doubtful proposition for road surfacing. It appears to have displayed unquestionable merit only when actually built Into a road, whether one layer deep or more. The' bltullthlc process, as Its name Indi cates, produces a kind of stone-tar. Regular bltullthlc pavement being too expensive for universal use on streets and for country roads, the question arises whether something not greatly unlike the bltullthlc top layer cannot be built into or onto macadam at a cost comparatively small. There are one or more pro cesses, we believe, which are said to meet this condition. If they can do what is claimed for them, the ap parently demonstrated failure of crudely applied tar will no longer In spire special regret In any enthusiast for the cause of good roads. WHERE sCAronxATJE TAPP XjOOT. We hereby call attention ; ta the froasv discrimination which presiden tial election requirements as laid down in the United States const! tu tion have worked against the glorious new Liberal party of Col. Sid C. Tapp. A full electoral ticket, cover ingr all the present glorious Union, would call for its names, divided among the several glorious States In proportion to their Representatives and Senators in Congress. Inasmuch as the party's known membership consists but of Colonel Tapp and one or two faithful followers, the Impos sibility of getting tickets in the field must have been realised Tuesday If not sooner. We therefore behold the spectacle of a party which leads all others In the high average standing of its membership debarred from the polls; ss if, forsooth, quality counted for nought. There Is also Involved the vital quesjipn whether In this free country men burning with desire for parties of -their own shall be sub jected to conditions precedent which few except multi-millionaires like Hearst can ever overcome. Evidently here are Injustices which the fathers did not foresee. If Colonel Tapn had won the presidency notwithstanding his tremendous handicap for exam pie. If the election had been thrown Into the House of Representatives, as once before a sixteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States would have taken next place on the political calendar. JOHN D.'S LARGE SUBSCRIPTION. Among the last of the Standard Oil letters read by Hearst was one to Mr. R H. Edmunds, editor of The Manu facturers' Record, of Baltimore, en closing his check for $3,000, Mr. Archbold's remittance for his sub scription. This check, as Hearst pointed out, paid Tor The Record for seven hundred and fifty years at Its published subscription price, so that the esteemed Mr. Archbold need not expect to find a dun In his dally mail. In relation to this matter a Baltimore dispatch of the 2d said: "When questioned about charge made en Saturday ntlit by William Randolph Hearst that John D Archbold had paid $3,000. for a year's subscription to The Manufacturers' Record. Mr. Edmonds said his paper hail for years been a bureau for distribution of pamphlets looking to the development of the South. He did not deny that he sot the money. As to the charge that tS.OjO was paid for s year's subscription to The Southern Farm Magaslne published by the same company, he said that he would have to ask the editor of that paper about it" This is an explanation which toesn't explain. Mr. Edmonds nra.it pick his Hint and try again. As for the editor of The Southern Farm Journal, strictly speaking- it is his move. The best thing about the altogether admirable speech of Mr. Bickett in Charlotte Monday .night, which was the town's talk yesterday, was the omission of a topic which has been worn threadbare. There was no abuse of the nigger; he was not exhibited as a scare-crow to frighten weak, preju diced and ignorant voters; In fact, he wasn't mentioned at all. This was entirely to Mr. Blckett's credit. We have disfranchised the niggers; they are not a negllble element In North Carolina politics; of the few who vote out of the many who could, half or more vote the Democratic ticket; they nswe lost interest In politics and are no longer a menace or even a factor to be reckoned with. In all the cir cumstances the continued "pecking" on them is unworthy of a brave and generous people. The Houston Post, of the 1st, in Its customary Sunday morning saluta tion, with the usual exordium: "On this radiant, sunklssed, aureoled autumnal Sabbath morning, when the Lord and all Hla Anirels are with us In Heavenly Houston the City of Anthems It Is a sweetly solemn thought that the Integrity of the ragged and rambunctious voters of New York, Ohio and Indiana may prove so firm on Tuesday that they will march to the polls and vote like men who are willing to see the postofflces and other places of emolument filled by the chastened and eager patriots who have been so long denied the luxuries and ecstasies of Federal office, and may the Lord touch tbe hearts of the voters and aid them to withstand the temptations of the Republican devil," But alas!
