A SEA TRIP.
A Correspondent Gives Graphic Account
of a Trip on (he Ocean.
Logan, U S Army Transpoit Service.
Bonner 6. Marsh, A. M.
Tne governmet has four of these
transports that make regular trips
from San Francisco to Manilla These
steamers carry everything needed for
army and other employees of the
government. When we consider the
thousands of soldiers and civilians
who have been carried acrocs the seas,
sometimes in great storms, and not
one life has been lost, we wonder
and admire the wisdom and success
of our government and the skill and
faithful service of the officers and
men who manage and direct these
ships.
The Logan, is one of the best now
in the service. She was built in
Belfast, Ireland, in 1892 and re-biult
in New York in 1899. Her bottom
and sides are steel and her hull has
five different water tifjht comparts.
She is four hundred and fifty feet
long and fifty feet wide. She has
four steel boilers that consume aliout
seventy-tiyf tons of coal a duy. She
has two screws driven by six hip
pie expansion ententes that- give her
a speed of about three hundred miles
in twentv-four hours. There an-six
decks and all are well supplied with
lrculatiug air. The ship is entirely !
free from bad air and unhealthy
oders so usually found iu most ships.
Cleanliness and order are noticed
especially among the men and
officers. Every morning at six
o'clock the ship is given a shower
bath which keeps bc.r cool and fresh.
All her one huudred anl forty-five
staterooms are supplied with electric
lights and fans. She is limited to
about two thousand passengers. A
large, cold storage room keeps all her
fruits, meats and vegetables fresh
and healthy. There is a machine
shop where all toolj and machinery
may be repaired.
Every day at noon a reckoning is
made and a notice is put up iu the
luree smoking saloon giving the ex
act distance travelled during the last
twenty-four hours, the latitude,
longitude auu tne temperature or the
air and watar.
A neat comfortable hospital well
supplied with necessary appliances,
a regular physician and a trained
nurse are always ready to take care
of the sick. If any person should
die aboard the ship there are neat
caskets always ready to receive the
bodv and preserve and take it back
to the United States, the home of the
deceased.
The dinning room is large enough
for one huudred guests at one sitting.
The fare is excellent and all the
ofKcei s and waiters are kind, polite
and attentive. This bout has about
all the comforts and conveniences of
any of the main liners. Breakfast
is served at 8, coffee at 6 aud lunch
at noon and supper at G. Every
body has an appetite a Dove normal
till the high waves, and the l oiling
ship begin to dispute with the gas
tric repository its right to its unwel-
conied contents. Then the chairs at
the dinning table are vacant. No
body dies but several get near the
border land. When the storm is
over and the heavings have ceased,
you feel convalescent and more hope
ful. After this novel experience the
guests are seen to approach the table
more cautiously.
THE OCEAN.
Unless there is a storm there is
not much to be seen except the- sky
above and the "dark and deep blue
ocean" below. There may be a stray
whale or two or a few white gulls,
but away out on the wide set, these
are soon gone and seeu no more.
AH the passengers seem to "pair
off" naturally by social gravity.
There in one corner upon the upper
deck we find some straight backed
officer of the army, young and full
of ambition, telling some black
eyed stenographer his full experience
at West Poiat, or how he rushed up
San Juan Hill in Cuba or soaked in
mud and water in the trenches
around Manila. She too catches the
same disease while listening to his
sweet troubles and wants to know in
what part of Islands he will be
stationed and in what province the
people enjoy the best health. Pretty
soon yon hear in another part of the
ship the piano going at lightning
peed. J. here sits some limber-
tongued bookkeeper or surveyor
singing some well known air of his
home far away. Memory sits en
throned and bygone days spring np
like fountains in a desert land.
Tender rands applaud and another
song comes forth with more pathos
and sweetness than at first. There
at another corner of the deck sit two
meditative lawyers, onef"om Taloma,
the other from New York. They
are half smoking and half chewing
np their old cigar stubs, discussing
and sol nn cr every phase of capital
and labor and enthusiastically ex
plaining how the money kings have
stolen their millions. Over vonder
at the other aide yea see a half dozen
ladies talking in an under tone tell-
inir how miss "so and so" made her
dress and bow miss "some-body-else"
succeeded in winning the brilliant
little lieutenant of Cavite. Thus
you sit, you sing, you talk, yon
smoke, as you choose; and every
body else does the same.

BRYAN MAKES A STATEMENT.
The Former Nominee Says That Judge
Parker Bid as Well as he Could, but
Was the Victim of Party Advocacy of
Conservatism When Conditions De
manded Radical Remedies,
Lincoln, Neb., November 9. Wm
J Bryan gave out an extended state'
ment concerning yjstc-day's election
which is intended to serve as his com'
ment on the result, and as an answer
to reports connecting him with a
movement looking to the formation
of a new party. Mr Bryan said he
would not attemnt to denr all the
reports circulated as to his future
political action, but would let his
stuteniont serve to explain his posi
tion. He says:
"The defeat of Judge Parker
should not be considered a personal
oue. He did as well as he could
uuder the circumstances; he was the
victim of unfavorable conditions and
of a mistaken party policy. He
grew in popularity us the campaign
progressed aud expressed himself
more and more strongly upon the
trust question, but could not over
come the heavy odds again it him.
Su-eulk'd conservative Democrats
charged the defeats of 1890 and 1900
to the party's position on the money
question, and insisted that a victory
cmld lie won by dropping the coin-
ap- question entirely
l he iv-nriiiiizers were in com
plete control of the party, they plun
ned the cutiii,'iigu and curried it on
uccoiding to ilieir own views and
the verdict against their plan is u
tiimiiiiiioiis one. Surely silver can
nut be blamed for this defeat, for
the campaign was I'll:; on a gold
basis. Neither can the defeat be
charged to emphatic condemnation
of th trusts, for the trusts were not
assailed as vigorously this year us
they were four years ago. It is evi
dent that the campaign did not turn
upon the question of imperialism.
and it is not fair to consider the re
sult us a personal victory for ' the
President, although his administra
tion was the subject of criticism.
"The result was due to the fact
that the Democratic party attempt
ed to he conservative in the presence
of conditions which demand radical
remedies. The Democratic party
has nothing to gain by catering to
organized and predatory wealth. It
must not only do without such sup
port, but it can strengthen itself by
inviting the open and emphatic op
position of these elements. The
campaign just closed shows that it is
as inexpedient from the standpoint
of policy as it is wrong from . the
standpoint of principle to attempt
any conciliation of the industrial and
financial despots who are gradually
getting control of all the avenues of
wealth. The Democratic party, if it
hopes to win success, must take the
aide of the plain common people."
Mr Bryan says for two years he
has pointed ent the futility of any
attempt to compromise with wrong
or to patch up a peace with the great
corporations which are now exploit
ing the public but the Southern
Democrats were so alarmed by the
race issue that they listened, rather
reluctantly, be it said to their credit
to the promises of success held out
by those who had contributed to the
defeat of the party in the two pre
ceding campaigns. He continues:
"The experiment has been a costly
one and it is not likely to be repeated
during the present grneration. . The
eastern Democrats were also deceiv
ed. They were led to believe that
the magnates and monopolists who
coerced the voters in 1896 and sup
plied an enormous campaign fund in
both 1896 and 1900 would help the
Democratic party it our party would
be less radical. Te election has
opened the eyes of the hundreds of
thousands of honest and well mean
ing Democrats who a few mouths
a o favored the organization of the
party. These men now see that they
must either go into the Republican
organization or join with the Demo
crats of the West and Sooth in mak
ing the Democratic party a positive,
aggiessive aud progressive reform
organisation. There is no middle
ground.
While the Democratic majority in
North Carolina shows a decline of
some 12,000. compared with that of
four years ago, those Republicans
who talk of carrying the State two
or faur years from now talk foolish'
ly. A party with 45,000 to 50,000
majority in a State with the voting
strength ef North Carolina is not
easily dislodged. The reduced ma
jority this year signifies nothing ex
cept a sense of safety. If there had
been any necessity for it the Demo
cratic party could have developed
hundreds, thousands, more votes.
Charlotte Observer.
FRAUD IN EiaHTll.
I Eighty More Votes Cast than Were Re
gistered In Two Precincts In Stanley
Similar Efforts In Randolph.
It is charged thnt in two precincts
in Stauley county 80 more votes
were cast than the registration books
show. Chairman Henderson is in
vestigating the mutter.
After an investigation of the
fraud it is probable that Mr New
land will be declared elected over
Mr Blackburn by a majority of
fifty-eight.
Iu Randolph connty in three
fourths of the precincts,it is learned,
that republican voters attempted to
vote duplicate tickets for Mr Mend-
cnhall, Mr Page's opponent.
Whether this was a clear mistake or
whether it was a scheme cuicocked
to stuff the ballot boxes we will
leave f'r the people to judge. The
same thing occurred four years ago
when we voted on the Constitutional
Amendment.
Had this occurred in only one or
two precincts it would not have, iu
all probability, caused the general
belief that the republican nianageix
tried to stuff the ballot box yet
they cry fraud.
Interviewed on the Election.
Senator Simmon in a recent inter
view said: "Uuder the circumstances
e have won a great victory in North
Carolina. A light vote wits cast;
grea ly lighter than 1 expected.
However our majority holds up very
well. One interesting fact is that
on joint ballot we will have exactly
the saute majority iu the cumin
Legislature which we hud in the last
one. We lost one Senator aud we
gained one member of the House.
The tight by the Republicans on the
Watts law was untdu through the
legislative ticket. The result shows
that they absolutely lost while we
held our own. In fact this Watts
law question was the one thing iu
the campaign which gave vitality,
life and interest to it, and but for it
the vote would be lighter on both
sides. There is absolutely nothiag
in the election to give any comfoit
to the Republicans. Our people
could have polled 75,000 majority,
hud there been any real enemy to
contend with. Our majority will
probably be about 48,000. The Re
publicans have made claims that
they would make gains in the eastern
counties, but the election shows that
we carried every county except
Sampson. As to the eight distrtict,
which I do not concede to the Re
publicans, I am advised that Black
burn boasted before the election that
five Democratic election officers
would vote for him in Stanly. I am
advised thar there are irregularities
in that county which affect the sub
stance of the vote. You may be
sure thut these will be very thorough
ly investigated by the State election
board, which is soon to meet."
Governor Aycock in au interview
on the result of the North Carolina
election says: "The Republicans
seems to take som comfort from the
returns i" this State. There is
nothing in the returns which justi
fies this cheerful view. There is not
a Republicans iu the State, includ
ing the State chairman, who can
claim fifty men who have left the
Democratic party iu the last two
years. The Democarw oeing entire
ly satisfied over the result refrained
in large numbers from voting. The
Republicans having been led to be
lieve thut they had some hope, turn
ed out and voted. There were of
course local troubles in various sec
tions which kept many Democrats
from voting, without changing their
political condition." a
A Party to Win Must Stand tor Some
thlnf.
St Louis, Nov. 10. Joseph W
Folk, Democratic Governor-elect to
day gave out the following inter
view:
"It is too eurly for any maa's
opinion as to the future party poli
cy. I do not believe in harsh criti
cism but prefer to think every oue
did the best he could. There is no
occasion for ill natured comment.
Let the party be united in purpose,
not divided. It is not an unprece
dented thing for the Democracy to
be defeated as overwhelmingly as
this time and then in the next elec
tion turn the tub.es and win just as
decisively. When principles are
fought for any defeat must b tela
porary.
A party to win must stand for
souielhinr, not merely against some-
thine. Political contests should be
made for principles, not fur men,
When no principles are involved,
there is nothing to fight for."

la speaking if the general result
of the recent election in this stfrte
Governor Aycock said this afternoon:
Republicans seeji to take some
gratification out of the returns of the
election and yet not one of them, not
even the state chairman, can name
fifty men who have left the Demo
cratic party and gone over to the
Republican party within the past
two years in this whole state. On
the contrary, Republicans have join
ed the Democratic paity within that
time.
"There were local conditions
whijh iu the opinion of many Demo
crats justified thein in remaining
away from the polls. These still be
lieve in Democratic principles.
North Carolinians favor tariff tor
revenue oulv and are fr local self
government aud strongly opposed to
the centralization ot power, ana
hen it becomes necessary for them
' to assert their faith in these princi-
pies they will be found at the polls."

Wellington, November 10, Pre
liminary returns to the chief of the
Bureau of Statistics of the Depart
ment of Agriculture on the produc
tion of coin in 1904 indicates a total
yield of about 2,453,000,000 bushels,
or an average of 2C.7 bushels per
acre, as compared with an average
yield of 25.5 bushels per ucre as
finally estimated in 1903, 26.8
bushels in 1902, and ten year aver
age of 24.2 bushels.
The preliminary estimate of aver
age yield per acre of tobacco is 819
pounds as compared with the final
estimate of 730.3 pounds in 1903,
797.5 pounds in 1902, and a six year
overage of 730.7. The average as to
quality is 89.5 per cent as compared
with 85.9 per cent, one year ago.

Free Mulberry Trees for North Carolina
Fsrmers. -
The past several seasons' experi
ence in silk-growing iu North Caro
ina has demonstrated thut the wo
men aud children of this State may
by light and interesting work dnr
iug six weeks of early summer, and
without interfering seriously with
the ordinary duties, each earn from
$30.00 to $40.00. Those who can
devote more time to the work may
earn more, i-very pound oi sux co
coons grown in North Carolina in
1904 has been sold at 90 cents to
$1.00 per pound.
It is ueceesary to increase the
available supply of silk-worm food.
Every farm and village lot in North
Carolina, having dry soil, should
have at least 100 trees.
The fruit of seedling mulberries
is excellent for poultry and hogs.
The toots spread widely near the
surface of the soil and will preveut
even steep hillsides from washing.
We recommend that f aimers plaut
seedling mulberries 12x12 feet apart,
permitting the plants to braachlow.
Use the field as a run for poultry or
hogs and allow the children of the
family to have the leaves for feeding
silk-worms as a source of pocket
money.
In erder toencourage the planting
of the white mulberry, the North
Caiolina Department of Agriculture
will distribute during the full of
1904, among the farmers of the

MISS OSBORNE WRITES AGAIN.
By Request of Some of her Former Pu
plls She Publishes a l etter Written
in Rhode Island Recently.
My Dear Girls and boys:
It hus been so long since I wrote
you, that I know many of you will
be surprised uud to hear from me
now. As quite a number of the
pupils at Central Falls have asked
me recently to tell them about my
visit to the New England States, I
will send you a letter writLcn while
there, but foi some reason it was
lai'1 by and not mailed. I intended
to write us soon as I arrived at Luca-
ma, but began teaching right away
aud my time was so nearly til leu up
that I would "put off" writing to
the school children. Now you will
wonder where Lucunia is, just as
muny of my friends huve doue. It
does not appear on any map except
the large map of North Carolina.
Lucama is in Wilson, count', eight
miles east of Wilson. It is u small
town, but large enough to support a
graded school, with four teachers,
nine mouths in the year, I have
the 4th uud 5th grades and am de
lighted with my work. In fact 1
am much pleused with Lncauiu iu
every wuy. There are no hills to
climb here, uo red mud to stick to
your feet wheu it ruins and uo rocks
to skiu up shoes. A white Hint is
quite a curiosity to the natives.
The cotton fields here are beauti
ful to look at. Much of the cotton
is in the field yet and at a distance
reminds me of the Callie Lilly fields
of California. They are not so pret
ty now since the frost has come and
blackened the leaves.
I am sorry we could not have our
reunion I spoke of before, but 1 just
did not have time to go home before
I came here. My visit to tuy aunt,
Mrs Prestou, in Baltimore was cut
short to five days by having to hurry
on to the school.
Baltimore is quite a city, but can't
be compared with Chicago, Boston
and Providence. The ouly part of
theciitbut held much attraction
for me was the "burnt district." In
fact, by the time 1 reached Balti
more, nothing seeminl wonderful,
strange or curious. As many of the
Baltimore merchants' names were
familiar to me, it was quite interest
ing for me to visit their dry goods
aud millinery departments. O 'Noil's
was specially interesting. There is
the place where oue pays for "style."
I could only look there, but as I did
not have the dress fever on nie at
that time, I left satisgcd with "just
looking."
I left Baltimore Sept. 9th and ar
rived here at 3 p. m. Sept. 10th, and
soon realized thut hot weather was
here. The glaring white sand, most
blinded me. I lcoked iu vain for
hills iu the distance, but none huve
appeared as yet. Being here does
not stem like being iu North Caroli
na for this part of the country is so
very different froai the middle aud
western part.
Mrs Congdon asked to be remem
bered to yon, when I wrote. They
don't kdow thut 1 have been all this
time delivering their message.
The following letter is the one
written in R. I. aud I send it at
this late hour, simply because several
have recently requested it. Hope
you will enjoy it:
My Dear Boys and Girls:
My visit iu Rhode Island is most
out and 1 am so sorry. 0! how
time flics. Father Time says it is
August, but I can scarcely help
doubting his word. Why 1 have
not felt any hot weather yet, 1 keep
hoping the weather will turn warm
so I can enjoy my thin dresses with
out a wrap. The people here laugh
at me, beoiuse 1 get cold, I laugh at
them because they complain of heat.
They have uo idea what hot weather
is.
My stay here hus been a most
pleasant one. Mr aud Mrs Cong
don and their friciidi have put forth
every effort to give me a good time.
aud to show me Rhode Isloud.
Rhode Island is as you know the
smallest state in the unioa. It pos
sesses much wealth and many pretty
places, aud is noted for its historical
places.
Oue of the most interesting places
I eve- visited is the home of Gen
Greene, of Guilford fame. You
remember reading of this man I um
sure, if any of you have forgotten,
get your history and read up on the
b ttle fought between Gen Greeue
and Lord Cornwallas, at Guilford
Court House in Guilford county. It
is one you should remember well.
Gen Greene's old home, is one of
those old revolutionary houses, situ
ated on a beautiful bill, overlooking
a small stream, known as Gretid's
River. The place is now owned by
Mr Maxwell Greene, a decendant of
Geu Greene When Mr Greene
found I was a southerner he seemed
to take a great delight in showing
me through the home, and telling
the history of the Greene family and
the old furniture and silver ware,
It was the greatest treat I have had
in uiy rounds. They still use the
dinning room furniture, that was
used bv Gen Greene's paients. The
side-board is of real mahogany nd
was brought over from England in
the 16th century. It is the finest
piece of hand work I ovr-r aw. Mr
Greene possesses quite a numbur of
pieces of silver, which was made by
Paul Revere. I was shown into the
room whero the General was born
and sat on the old mounting block
to have my photo made, I would
write more about this historical old
place but I must branch off ou some
thing else.
Newport is a city full ef historic
al scenes and relics. Here I went to
the old Trinity church aud sat in
the pew, occupied by George Wash
ington when he had his headquar
ters ut that place. This is the ouly
church iu Rhode Island thut was
not used us u barn by the British,
and remains just as it was in that
day.
Newport is the summer resort of
some of the wealthiest people iu the
United States. Tho homes of these
people are out on the coast and are
as beautiful and inuguiticent as
money cnu muke.
Providence is quite a pretty city.
It was my pleasure to visit friends
here who, took a great delight in
showing mc the city uud the thing
I enjoyed most was going to the
theatres.
One afteruoou we took a t roily
ride up tho valley through the cot
ton and woollen mill villages. 1
think we went a distance of about
twelve miles, and passed through
eighteen vi llages. (They are cities
compared with Central Falls or
Worthville) 1 saw two or three
mills that were as large as all the

Oue of the days I've enjoyed most
here was with the Baptist Sunday
school, of East Greenwich, at Narra
gansett Pier. This is a summer re
sort on the coast of the Atlantic
ocean. We did not go in wagons
and carriages to the picnic, but on
the electric cars, chartered by the
Sunday school. The ride was per
fectly grand. We went over the
Sea View Railroad which affords
beautiful scenery all the way. After
spending several hours at the Pier,
the Sunday school came back to
Wickford, where a delicious clam
dinner was served us.
Will close my letter for this time,
hopiugyou are getting ready for
school uirivin.
Yours most respectfully, (

"When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. It often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them Scott's Emul
sion. It is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
Scott's Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the tasti
and the remedy takes just a
naturally to the children be
cause it is so perfectly adaptec
to their wants.
For all weak and pale am'
thin children Scott's Emulsior
is the most satisfactory treat
