Maybe this will gain for Mr. Bryan some friends that he did not have and needed when he was three times de feated for President, but Mr. Simmons, who was always in the thick of the fight for Bryan and the whole Democratic ticket, will hardly suffer from the unkind knock by the Commoner. PARAGRAPHS. Woodrow Wilson wears smile that won't come off. the T.iat is a great struggle be tween Taft and Kooseveit tor second place. Now is the cackle of the oyster heard in the land. How changed are the times as shown by the fact that within recent years the term "conserva tive" hrs passed from a compli ment into a reproach. Disquieting thought of the day: Buy your Christmas pres ents early. Many a boy has acquired good habits by not following in his father's footsteps. Blessed is the man who would rather be right than president for he has a better chance to win out. Moaa Git t tl6,0G0 WitHolii llofr of Reward. J. Pierpont Morgan told the Stnate campaign contributions committee in Washington Thurs day that while he had contributed $180,000 to the last two Republi can presidential campaign funds, the gifts were mad a "without expectation of return." After saying he had contributed $150, 000 to the fund of 1904 and $30, 000 to the fund of 1908, Mr. Mor gan turned to the committee and exclaimed earnestly: "I want it distinctly under stood that J. P. Morgan & Com pany never made a single sub scription to any election, with any promise or expectation of anything, or return in any way, shape or rranner, and we never made it without we deemed it advantageous for the govern ment and the people. We never had a communication from any candidate. We never had an ap plication from any candidate for money, and anything that we did, or that was done under my suggestion and we were all in harmony was that it was neces sary for the good of the country and the business of the people. There was never a commitment of any expectation of any return, and we never got any return, either, from anybody." This statement followed a se ries of questions by Senator Pomerene as to whether the New York financiers had con ferred and ascertained the atti tude of various candidates to ward business before making contributions. Mr. Morgan re peatedly denied that there was any concerted action among New York business interests in support of the Republican candi date in 1904. WMM method of Labor great Novelist Evolved Plots as He Walked, Accordin9 to Testimony of Old Friend. Marcus Stone, the veteran painter whose old-fashioned young men and maidens meeting or parting in old fashioned gardens have for bo many years delighted the British puhllc, celebrated his 72nd birthday last week. He has been giving some of his reminiscences. Every Christmas and every summer for 20 years Marcus Stone used to visit Charles Dickens at his various homes, especially at Gad's Hill, near Rochester. "Dickens,' says Stone, "was one of the greatest and kindest men I ever met. He was imbued with the true Christian spirit. What particularly struck me at Gad's Hill was the at mosphere of calm and comfort one felt at once on entering the house. "At 3 o'clock every afternoon we used to have a 20-mile walk in the country round. Dickens spoke but lit tle while walking, and this after a time led me to discover the secret of his amazing industry. He sat only for a few hours at his desk, and I always wondered how he could be so prolific an author. "Well, owing to his taciturnity in our country walks I began to suspect that it was then he evolved most of the plots of his novels. His brain was active all the time and the task of reproducing on paper the things he imagined and thought about became more or less a mechanical process." There used to be in this coun try copper toed shoes that the small boy could not kick out in a month. Ah, those were happy days for the parents. COUNTY TICKET. For Representative, AB N. DALE.

Along with a great many peo ple of the county, regardless of political faith, we admire the pluck of the old line Republicans in deciding to hold a county convention to nominate a Repub lican county ticket. They repre sent the only Republican county organization and they don't pro pose to be disorganized by the Roosevelt mixture. In this they are dead right. As Uncle Boney Mangum says, "if you are a Re publican be a Republican, if a Democrat be a Democrat none of this running off after jack-o'-lanterns. Mr. Roosevelt was not nomi nated by the Republican party and is now trying to disorganize that party. These Burke Repub licans will show their colors in trying to keep him and his fol lowers from doing it, and we glory in their spunk, even if the Democrats arc going to beat the whole layout. A POST CARD CAMPAIGN. A vost card with a picture of Brvan cn the front and on the back a picture of Governor Kitchin and what Bryan said in his paper against Senator Sim mons is being distributed broad cast ever the State. These cards are being circulated in Burke this week. The News-Herld has already had its say as to what it thinks about Mr. Bryan meddling in our , senatorial contest and the small- ness of his utterance aga'nst Mr. Slmrr.or.s. We don't bel'eve it will xake any votes away from th Senator. It is also sa:d on the card that Being investigated has become second nature to some Standard Oil people. Soon there will be more avi ators under ground than in the air. Son:e of the votes depended on by the Bull Moose party are understood to be loaned for a limited engagement only. Men will joke about the high cost of living even when it is im possible to pay their bills. There is no silent partner in the firm of Roosevelt and John son. Before a western audience the other day, Colonel Roosevelt in- digantly refuted the charge that he desired to be king, convincing even the few skeptics present, by pointing out that kings don't have much power. Col. Roosevelt expects to break the solid south, but it is difficult to see how he will even bend it. Maryland figures that the Colonel will be third in the race, which would seem- quite appro priate for a man who is running for a third term at the head of a third party. Taft predicts ca'amity if the Democrats win in November. A calamity to the trusts and the protected interests, no doubt.

Simmons Will Sweep Field. Concord Times. Major Samuel Telfair, of Ral eigh, was a business visitor here yesterday. Major Telfair was private secretary to Governor Fowle and Governor Holt and has always manifested a deep in terest in things political. When asked about the outcome of the senatorial race Major Tel fair said that he thought there was little doubt but that Sim mons woud sweep tne neia in the first primary. Major Telfair siid that in the various sections where he had been and judging by reports from the other sec tions there was an overwhelming sentiment for Simmons. "As I look at the situation I hardly see a chance for the other candidates and think that Simmons will win 'hands down' in the first pri mary." The poll of the New York Her ald for the past week shows that Governor Wilson is still leading his two opponents in the presi dential fight, but that Taft shows growing strength. The betting in Wall Street last week favored Sulzer, Demo crat, for Governor of New York, the odds being 2 1-2 to 1 in his favor. The betting in favor of Wilson is 3 to 1. Nine young men joy riding in an automobile in Philadelphia were killed early Sunday morn ing when the machine crashed through a railing and fell a dis tance of 75 feet. Thos. J. Ryan, for many years a Democratic leader in Philadel phia and prominent as an amuse ment promoter, committed sui cide Sunday by shooting himself. Forerunner of Revolution. Furious driving was one of the charges brought against the French aristocracy at the revolutpion. Said Mercer: "In Paris the people are weak, pallid, stunted, a class apart from other classes in the state. The rich and the great who possess equi pages enjoy the privilege of crushing them or of mutilating them in the streets. Hundreds of vietims die an nually under the carriage wheels." "I saw," wrote another observer. Ar thur Young, "a poor child run over and probably killed, and have myself many times been blackened with mud. If young noblemen in London were to drive their chaises in the streets as their brethren do at Paris they would speedily and justly get very well thrashed or rolled in the kennel." Church Bars Telephone User. Henry Yoder, who is a member of the Mepnonite religious clan here, has been requested by a committee of the Beet to have the telephone removed from his home, otherwise be will be excommunicated. The church people contend a tele phone is of the world and should be discarded. Yoder contends the tele phone 13 a necessity, but will report his decision to the church committee In a few days. Centralia correspon dence St. Louis Globe-Democrat. In Customary Parlance.

Raleigh Dispatch, 4th. Indications are that there will be a modification of the recent ruling of the State Democratic Executive Committee as to what shall constitute "Democratic ticket" in qualifying to vote in the senatorial contest. It is reported that representa tives of all three of the candi dates for the Senate have agreed that there can be a modification on the basis that the national, congressional and legislative Democratic tickets must be voted and the elector must also vote not less than two-thirds of the State and county tickets, and yote for no candidate opposing those Democratic candidates on the State and the county tickets scratched. It is probable that the State Democratic Executive Committee will be called together soon by State Chairman Webb to act on this matter. bresii Lei Mackerel and Roe Herrfog. Bristol's Grocery Store.

Actor Willing to Guarantee Ho Would Make Decent Corpse as the Dead Julius Caesar. Speculation is rlf along the New York Rlalto as to whether or not In "William Faversham's production of "Julius Caesar" Fuller Melllsh, who has been cast for the part of Caesar, will actually appear in the oration ecene. This is because of a quippant retort of Sir Herbert Tree, which has Just found, its way across the Atlan tic. Tree is quite a stickler for detail, and although it is generally custo mary for the dead Caesar to be rep resented in the oration scene by a dummy. Tree, in his recent revival of the Roman drama, insisted that the actor cast for Caesar should actually appear upon the bier. The Caesar of the play demurred, averring that he was subject to colds and that the drafts upon the stage might cause him to sneeze, thus spoil ing the effect of the scene, to which Tree quickly and dryly retorted, "Nev er mind; in that case you'd be playing Julius Cnaesar.' " To Mr. Faversham's solicitous in quiries Mr. Mellish haa hastened to reply that he rarely sneezes, so the stage director can feel assured of 8 free rein. Earning College Expenses. Miss Florence McArdle, a senior a1 Boston university, is in charge of the girls' department of the students' employment bureau. This year about one hundred women students have been supplied with work. Boston uni versity was one of the first colleges tc realize the value of an employment bureau for its students. Miss McArdle says that one of the best ways for girls to work their way through college is to get into a fam ily where in return for performing certain household duties they get room, board, laundry and car fares. Never before have so many girls been working their way by this method aa this year, and the supply was not equal to the demand. Miss McArdle Is working her way through college and in return for a specified number of hours at the bureau gets her tul tion free. Before taking up this work she had tutored, done office work and many other things to support herselj while getting education. Vermonter's Failure. "The inefficient are necessarily the disobliging," said A. Munsey, apropoa of a political leader who had failed, "A middle-aged failure got a sum mer job in a Vermont general store last month. A boy came in one morn ing and asked him for half a pound of melted maple sugar, the famous Ver mont dainty, at the same time laying a pot on the counter. "The inefficient failure, without weighing the pot first, ladled a lot of the sticky syrup into it, then, of course, when he set the pot on the scales, It went down with a bang. Finally he ladled out all he could but, again, bang went the scales. Then the man returned the boy the pot and said: uo DacK uome ana tell your ma, sonny, v.e can't make a half-pound of maple 6ugar." Gift of Danes to Native Land. Americans of Danish descent have purchased a tract of 300 acres of typi cal and virgin Danish heather ' land scape in the province of Jutland and have presented it to the Danish na tion as a memorial of their love and good will. The park is to be known as "the Danish-American Park," and the only proviso in the deed is that on each Fourth of July the stars and stripes are to be hoisted over the park and the park turned over to Americans. The late king Frederick VIII .had signified his intention of personally accepting the park on be? half of hi3 people, but that duty will now devolve upon some representative of the royal government. Col. Roosevelt Testifies About Cam paign Funds. , Washington Dispatch. 4th. Theodore Roosevelt, for seven years President of the United States and candidate for re-election on the national Progressive ticket, occupied a witness chair for three and a half hours to day before a Senate investigating committee, defending his admin istration, himself and his cam paign associates against what he termed "infamous charges" and "hearsay evidence." He appeared before the com mittee at his own request, to answer the statements made in August by John D. Archbold that the Standard Oil Company had given $100,000 to the Repub lican campaign fund in 1904, under the impression that Presi dent Roosevelt knew of and ap proved acceptance of the contribution. Not only did Colonel Roosevelt deny this, but he put into the formal records of the committee sweeping denial that he had ever solicited lunas irom any one while President; that any money had been received by the 1904 campaign committee with an express or implied promise or favors from the administration; that excessive funds had been used in his 1904 or 1908 cam paign; or that money had ever been improperly used in his be half, so far as he knew. In reference to the Harriman fund of $240,000, raised in 1904, Colonel Roosevelt declared the statements of J. P. Morgan, George R. Sheldon and ethers had fully corroborated his earlier statements that this fund was raised expressly for the New York State campaign and had not been solicited by him for his cwn support in the fight for the Republican pomination that year. "There was not one word spoken by Mr. Harriman or by me having any reference to any collection of funds for the na tional campaign," he said, re ferring to his interview with Mr. Harriman in October 1904. "On the contrary, the request was from Mr. Harriman that, inas much as we had ample funds for the national campaign and as the national was safe, we could help him out in the State campaign."
