AS BRYAN IS UNDERSTOOD. : Mr. Bryan, while renting In Texas a hla way to Mexico, made more than one statement relating to the future. One, written by himself at Baa 'Alltonlo, in which he expressed tha hope that the necessity would not rise for him to run for President In 1111, but, etc., etc., vu printed In tbe Associated Press dispatches Wed nesday morning. Another, made at 6u Antonio or elsewhere, and of the aame purport, is given in theae words: "I would much prefer to retire to pri vate Ufa. and I hope that tour years bancs oiroumatancee will not be such as to force ma Into the campaign; but If circumstances should force me to battle, battle I will. I do not desire ever to be S candidate for office again; but It Is a difficult matter to make a rule (or tbe future. If tha Democratic party and con tingencies demanded it, I would again become a candidate. ' Tbe newspaper press of the coun try, so far as we have seen expres sions from It, and we have seen many, ays united in tha interpretation they put upon these utterances, and in deed there can be but one; that Mr. Bryan will hold himself in easy call for 1912. They vary likely mean mora than that; that ha expects to be called. While this is the case and It is likoly to continue so to be there is no need to speculate upon the future of the national Democratic party. It may survive; Indeed, it will, and will continue to win State victories; but there will be bo hope for Its success aa a national organization so Jong aa the Bryan shadow is over It, which I la to ssy the Bryan blight. He can never lead It to victory, but he will see carefully 'to It that under any other leadership than his own It con tinues to "go to defeat. He win re main strong enough for that. Re organization of the party is proposed and one suggestion Is as good as an other. Some propose a Southern party, as for Instance The Richmond News Leader: "The South ran stop this game by some bold assertion ol itself and alle giance to Its own gelf-respect. The leading newspapers and some leading men of the South can come forward now hi the be ginning of the Bryan boom and announce once for all that in no circumstances will they aupport Mr. Bryan for I he presi dency In 1918: that even It he Is nominated by the national Democratic convention the South will not vote tor hint. This Is an heroic and almost desperate method, but it la better than to permit the IH-mo-cratlc party to tie led to slaughter by the ambition and egotism of one man. The South seceded once before tor' the vindi cation of her principles and her rights on the protection of her own Interest a. She can announce now that If another at tempt ta made to tie her to a hopeless leadership, to Identify her with Mr Bryan's political heresies and phantasms, she will secede from the Democratic par ty and If necessary nominate candidates of her own. representing her real polit ical principles and purposes, and invite the help of all the real Democrats of the country." This is rather surprising, coming from a paper as well informed and as eoslble as our Richmond contempo rary, which knows that the South goes to every national convention olid for Bryan anj that but for the South there would be no breath in Sryaoiem. The South la responsible for him and ought to be brave enough to admit It Th Observer Is discussing theae things as a matter of duty to its read er not that It faels any Interest in them. It respectfully declines to be Interested for tha present in "The Future of ths Democratic Party," which la ths subject of so many edi torials just now, but is addressing its thought to the things that are cal culated to make Charlotte grow and is trying; to do something for North Carolina, which it loves better than It doe the national Democratic party or all ths rest of the world. Our NortSx Carolina people are curl ' oua. Professing to want light and knowledge upon subject which are obscure; dJseemJnatsng these our selves, especially through our medical pro f esaion, wfcksk is more advanced than any, other; soliciting, and alert for, information by mean of which v, can improve ouraelves. when an outsider suggests deficiency or lie rerf ootion we swell ,p about u and abuse t)m.' .", ; i.-' -I-.e-AshevUle Ua4 tiger r who-" r it w.ts vh TOte Judge George ' r J a threatening letter, intend. , ; .UmiJat him t the discharge , duties la dealmr witb. the ill-. cf liquor there, does Dot know ru H Is one of the last tti- i lOrfri Carolina over whom ! successfully run. - .. A PARA1XEB BY eTOOnONA ; The Nw Tor, Kvenliis; I-ost passes soms agreeable compliments upon tha active Democratic leadership la New York Stat. TbVfcrutal and HUter ata Co on era," it begins, iths traaacher ous and gready Murphy -If these leaders had been successful, they would have remained abhorrent to honest men; defeated sad discredited. they should speedily be ousted from. party I control. In, their case, reor ganteation of the Democracy means something' like fumigation. Thou aads of Democrats would hall the expulsion of such vermin. Many of them, we understand, are already con ferring about the best wavy in which to tackle the Job. The lately and quietly formed 'Cleveland Democracy In this city seems to have been in tended not merely for the campaign. but for the lime of party purlfloatloa afterward. The work must be un dertaken by somebody. Just as Demo cratic success In the nation Is im possible with Bryan at the head of the party, so is K In New Tork until Conner and Murphy be made to walk the plank." It Is really not pleasant to reflect that the Democratic State chairman In New Tork fa simply a king-thug, and that most of his associates aa very little better. Men like "Flngy" Conner, of Buffalo, heavily weigh down the Northern and Eastern Democracy. Even In New Tork State, where this element most prevails, W usually has the sense to put up for high offices Parkers and McClellaaa rather than its own kind, but there la no getting away from the plain fact of its control. Party organization. with all the honors and spoils ob tainable, lie in the hollow of its hand. The repugnance inspired in the better sort of voters can be easily understood by Southerners, for whom the Republican party's greatest draw back has long been its Southern leadership. Men undesirable as as sociates Inevitably exercise a repel ling Influence upon would-be re cruits. The trouble from the Demo cratic standpoint about this situation In the two sections Is that South em Republicanism has made dis tinct progress toward respectability in some Startes, Immense progress while Northern Democracy has not Improved "and tn several great States has been distinctly on the retrograde It is a great pity that something cor responding to the South's elimination of the negro as a political factor can not be dorse for Democracy In States like New Tork. Anywhere and every where, two sound, strong parties are necessary to assure normal politics and permanent good government. JCrXiK T.VFT AND THE TARIFF. A dispatch In yesterday's paper from Hot Springs, Va., said: "That President-elect William H. Taft entertains a virorous determination tnat the forthcoming- revision ot the tariff shall b thorouarh. made in good faith. and In accordance with tho plodge of tha nartv. is daily evidenced In the earnestness with which he talka of thla subject with hla political callers.- In his Milwaukee address, Scptem ber 24th, Ju.lge Taft said: "Mr. Bryan says that there ha toeen no Indication that the revision may not be upward rather than downward. In answer, I can say that the party la pledged to A genuine revision, and aa the temporary head or tnat party, ana i-resi dent of the United States, if It be suc cessful In November, 1 expect to use all the Influence that 1 have by calling lm mediately a special session and by rec ommendation to Congress, to secure a genuine and honest revision of the tariff In accordance with the principle or pro taction lnid down In the platform, based upon the examination of appropriate evi dence and impartial as Between me con sumer and the manufacturer." Perhaps nobody doubts the abso lute good faith of the President-elect, delivered in the campaign and re iterated now. He Is an honest and truthful man and if he could have his way about It would have ths tariff revised in a spirit of faimeee and Im partiality "as between the consumer and the manufacturer,'' but unhap pily he eannot have his way about It The tariff will be "revised" es Can non and Aldrlch want it done. "And now," says The Durham Her ald, "some of them are already after Mr. Murehead's Job Just aa if they did not remember what happened to Mr. Brooks." The Observer happens to know that Mr. Morehead Is greatly bored on account of his election; not expecting It who-n he was nominated, and that he has no Idea now of run ning for Congress again, he being a business man and not a politician; but while It Is none of our business we take the liberty of saying that he Is likely to make so excellent a Rep resentative that if he should change his mind and run for re-election he will probably prove as troublesome In 1910 as ha has done this year. Apropos of the theory advanced by Captain Ashe In his new history, re garding the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence, it Is well to note that the January number of the North Carolina Booklet is to be given up entirely to a discussion of this question by Mr. A. 8. Sal ley, Jr., sec retary of the South Carolina Histori cal Commission, and Mr. Bruce Craven, now superintendent of the Lancaster, 6. C, public schools. Read ers of The Observer do not need to be bold that the cavuse of Mecklenburg" and the truth is In good hands. Tou remember tha story about the Irish eitisea of Waterbury, Conn., who, during the campaign applied for a job to the superintendent of streets. "Who are you gotaf to vote for to November V lie i wag asked.

R U observed In a mora or )eea es teemed contemporary that Mr. J. B. Musee, a soebona weather prophet of Read tpf. Ptwuraylvanlav says that th4 breast-bone of tbe goose is mark ed very peculiarly this year; that 'there 1a a dark spot tiers and there making an accurate prediction diffi cult, svnd indicating that this winter will generally be an open one with a very cold epel now and then." The Charleston News and Courier, taking note of this statement, remarks: "The only goose, or rather the maecu line member of that tribe of national reputation, m now , comfortably do masticated In the city of Charleston, and careful search has failed to dis cover anything wrong wKh his breast bone. He present a martial front. It Is true, tout how could It be otherwise in view of the strenuous campaign through which ha has just passed without . turning a feather? The weather prophets in this neighbor hood who have examined him for pre dictions declare that all the sign he gives would appear to promise a very mild and altogether delightful winter-Naturally we entertain both respect and affection for the Oadsden Gander. It was his entrance upon the cam paign that caused the thitherto tin movable tight-wads of South Carolina to begin to looeeji up; but while his ability aa a collector of dollar sub scriptions has been demonstrated we have never exalted him as a weather prophet and protest against thtAVduty being imposed upon him, at least un til he has recuperated from the labors of the campaign. Ws call upon Col Gadsden to have a stop put to the exhibition of the Gander m this ca pacity anyhow unless he wants to see him put to an open shame. The gen tleman who has observed that every year Colonel Bryan runs for Presi dent is followed by a cold winter has put the public upon notice as to what It Is to expect of the winter of 1901 and the dander, with all his ability and other fine qualities, can't stand against this record. Sunday Observer readers will be pleased at the knowledge that Savoy ard, who discontinued his articles during the campaign, will return to lta columns soon. Sunday, December 6th, he will write on the personality of Ellhu Root, and this will be fol lowed by an article on the late Sena tor Carmack, whom Savoyard knew so well and so much admired. The second story In tho series of unpub lished Action by authors of note will appear Sunday. It Is by Harriet Prescott fipofford and is entitled "A Spinster's Thanksgiving."

THB COMMISSION'S REPORT. It Is evident that th disturbance in th congregation 1 by no means at an end. There lsa strong feel ing astir that th recommendation of the commission, which was espec ially designed merely to Investigate the situation. 1 not In keening with the facta ascertained. It I recall' by those acaualnted with the conai tlon of affairs that the commission reported that Mr- Duncan bad bee found xulltv of an Indiscretion and also of a laxity in msetlng his nnan clal obligations, both of which were charged bv the majority of the es- slon, and yet it recomnended that his resignation be not accepted, inert was a fair representation of the Pres bytery at the adjourned sssslon but when a motion was made to accept ths report ot the commission after some hesitation. It is claimed that only about half of ths delegates voted in the affirmative, the others not voting at all. The talk for a re-consldera tlon of the question is based upon the slight vote which the motion for ths acceptance of the report and reconv mendatlqn received. CONTRARY TO EXPECTATIONS. It Is said that the recommendation of the commission was contrary to the expectation ot many of th delegate who were aware of the facts in me case, and several committed them selves tp abide by its report under ths anticipation that It would certainly recommend the resignation of Mr, Duncan. Thl. not so much because of anv zrevlous wrong whloti ha had committed, but because the general opinion which seems to prevail in tn Presbytery that In view of the ois rupted condition of the congregation Mr. Duncan ought to resign. A num ber who have been heard to express opinions on the matter made no oh Jection to " these two clauses in the report: "We conclude, after our investlga. tlon of all the facts that thers was no Intentional wrong In Rev. William Duncan's writing the letters in ques tion, but there seems to have been mora or less indiscretion in the let ters. Judging from the impression made upon reliable parties who read them. "A to the debts of Brother Duncan, while there were strong mitigating circumstances for their existence, we think he has not used that strict care that becomes a minister of the-Gospel against becomtnr involved in debt, and we exhort him to use the utmost diligence to discharge these debts soon as possible." . But held strong opposition to th last section which recommended that Mr. Duncan re main as pastor and which Is literally as follows: "Believing, in vlsw of all the cir cumstancea, that greater injury would result from dissolving the pastoral re lations than otherwise, we therefor recommend that the pastoral relation be not dissolved. ARE LOOKING FOR LJGHT, ' In the meantime, ths offended mi nority of the congrsgatlon, which em braces the -majority of the session are looking for right as to their duty In the matter. It Is claimed that they will not make the appeal O the Presbytery, but look to regular members of the body to take this step, those who think Mr, Duncan ought to resign In order to preserve th strength of the congregation. It was first stated that thsse would ask for their certificates to-mornpw morning, but If Is not known whether any concert of action can be brought about in taking this step or not, Among the offended, and Indeed th chief or mem. ar tn men W"o nave established the First church and borne the burden of it financial obligation sine it Inclpienoy twenty yar ago and these d not feel like severing their relations with the con gregatton..
