TO PARTY REORGANIZATION.
Senator Simmons Believes la the Mission
and Denlloy of the Deaiscratlc Party
Gives Credit to Governor Glenn for
Bit Majority la the Stats.
Washington Oar tuning rwt, Urd,
Reorganisation of the Demooratio
party, a them, that has been dis-
caused from many standpoints since
we election, received little anoour-
agenjent frow Senator Simmons, who
was a visitor in waBnmgtou today.
no uas nine patience witn me talk
01 making me uemocratio party a
distinctly soutnern party. Demo-
cracy it immortul in his opinion and
has a mission to fulfill in the future
in American politics. . Speaking of
the future of Democracy the senator
said:
"This is not the first defeat the
Democratic party has sustained.
The result will neither crash nor
demoralize it, a other defeats have
net. Its priuuiple of Domocraoy
ere'a eternal as the desire of mail
for self-government. It will renew
the fight for ratioual principles, and
when it quits chasing rainbows, as it
win, men it win oe m me aaueuuau-
CTa I
"As for the future, it is too early I
to speak, but the party will
uouui auuere 10 iuv uuea oi lis ir-
Uitioual p'lutiplej, buiuj sufiicienily
progreasive to meet issues growing
out of current events without ar.y
effort to catch the vote of oue sectioii
or another. With a policy, I be
lieve, the party will stand by it.''
Speaking of the attitude of Demo
crats at the approaching session of j
congress, theseiiator said:
"I presume the Democratic party
will pursue a diguiSed and oouser-
vative course during this cmgiesa. !
1'he fact is thoroughly recognized
that the Kepublicun party, having
carried the country, is eutitled to
govern duriiig the next four years.
Mr Roosevelt should be treated with
that respect which his uigb office en
titles him to receive. The Hues of
proper opposition will, however, b.'
maititaiued aud the principles of
Democracy asserted. If the presi
dent is kind to the south aud treats
that section with fairness, he will
only be doing his dty as president
of this country. If he seeks to be
harsh, exceeding the authority of law
iu his treatment of that great section
his action will be resented.' There
will be uo onngiug or fawning on
the part of tht people. They aw I
ad independent, brave aud patiioUc ,
people, aud ouly want tnat to which
they are eutitled."
Ia due time," continued Senator
Siwmoas, the hues of the next
tight will be formulated, but just
uow all talk of reorganization on
new hues is out of place, whether it
is given expression by members of
congress or prominent Democrats in
the nation."
Seuator Simmons was the recipient
of many congratulations on the Hue
showing nwle by the North Caroli
na Democracy, lie is one of the
few visitors to Washington since the
election whom Washingtouians have
be n able to congratulate. The
senator-chairman took his honors
modestly and was disposed to giva
most of the credit to Goveruor-vleot
Qlenn.
"Governor Glenn made a magnifi
cent campaign," observed the sena
tor, "add his speeches were wonder
fully effective. The result in the
state was certain from the first, and
consequently interest was not acute,
but Governor Glenn, more than all
of us, aroused the people to the im
portance of exercising the privilege
of the electorate. We are looking
forward to s groat administration on
progressiva lines from enr newly
chosen chief executive, who has the
good will and high regard of all the
people of the state."

courses are intended only for farm

nations. There is no tuition. Every
thing is free to the farmers of the
State, except hoard, room and fuel.
The total cost for these for the ten
weeks is bat thirty dollars. If you
wish to study your work; understand
thft soil and how to fertilize and im
prove it; how to breed and fend ani
mals; how to make bntter; how to
jndge farm animals and farm crops;
aud to study the various details for
practical work on the farm; you
ought to spend ten weeks at the
Farmers College. You can readily
get away from home during the
winter months and meeting with
other farmers and talking with them
about our farm problems, immense
good will come to you and to the
agriculture of the 8tate. You had
better arrange early for this course
Talk with a friend or two and see if
yon all can't come.

were praseut, many of them atadaoU
that bad been specially invited to be
present. Mr Rockefeller chose for
his text "The Parable of the Pearl.1
He regarded determination, per
s'stence and intelligence as the three
things essential in seeking the pearl
of life, and character, friendship,
health and success arc the bings
worth having, purposely placing snc
cess last, as he considered that lees
important than ths rest.
The point is," said Mr Rockefel
ler, "not to be satisfied with any
thing bnt the best I suppose every.
one of ns is seeking something,
"We should be fall of determina
tion in our search. How many men
fail because they lack courage and
determination? Then there must
be persistence.
"Th man who finally fonnd ths
pearl of greatest price was seeking
ntellieence. Jesus Christ (aid to
seek first the kingdom of heavsn and
that is what this pearl means. It
means the ending oi onaracter,
which is the greatest pearl. It is
the foundation upon which a sue
lessful life iu whatever line must be
built. Any position, any succe-s,

ompiir-hraeut of which yon are
handicapped by Christian character

ow a Doorkeeper Wo from Senator

There are exceptions to all rules,

sense of humor and sufficient intelli
gence to put him on a proper footing

Charles S Draper, woo has been on
the Senate pay-roll in various capa
cities for over forty years.
On one occaaioo several years ago
the Senate showed a disposition to
vote down proposition to give an
extra month's pay to th employees,
nd Senator Ingalls of Kansas made
a characteristically bitter speech in
opposition to the gift. The buiden
if bis speech was, "There is no pre
cedent" The employees held an in
dignation meeting, and Draper was
selected to plead with Mr Ingalls to
withdraw his batteries. The Sena
tor listened to the tale of hardships
endured by the clerks, doorkeepers,
messengers, laborers, etc., in being
compelled to work twelve months
oat of twenty-four without getting
thirteen months' pay each year, and
then asked abruptly, "Draper, if you
are so dissatisfied with your job, why
don't you lesiga and let some on
else get it'" The doorkeeper looked
the Kansas Senator a moment in the
eye, and then replied with uncon
scious imitation of Mr Ingalls's voice
aud manner in debate, "Why, there
is no piecedent for this, Mr Senator,
ther is no precedent." Ingalls's
astonishment gave way to loud
laughter, and when the extra pay
proposition came np again for final
action he was oat of his Hat, and it
passed. Pearson's for December.

For Harris. (Rep.) 78,853
Glenn' majority 50,841
The vote in all the counties pnb
lisbed below is sent The News and
Observer by officials in th several
counties. The vote of Carteret alone
is estimated, letters and telegram
failing to bring the official vote from
that connty. It is safe to say that
when th Canvassing Board meets
this month to canvass the returns,
the result will be about as stated
above,
Th vt far Glean show that h
received 6,148 less votes thaa Bed-
dingfield received a larger vote than
had been generally supposed th
Democrat would cast this year, ow-
ug to the fact that there were no
contests in half the State and tl
people everywhere regarded his elec
tion as a forgone cauclussion.
The rote for Harris was 78,853
voles, an increase of 10,644 ever Dr
Abbott's vote in 1902. The Repub
licans who are honest will be disap
pointed at this result, for they bsd
been confidently predicting that Har
ris would get 100,000 vote and that
Glenn would get ouly thirty thous
and more. Thev guessed Glenn's
vote better than they guessed the
vote of their own caadidate. The
Democrat expected the vote to be
fuller and figured that Glenn would
get 140,000 votes; Harris wonld get
85,000 or 90,000 votes giving Gleun
majority of ever 50,000. The offi
cial count shows that tbs estimator
were not accurate in their predictions
In view of the tremendous falling
ft iu the Democratic vote elsewhere
and the Republican landslide that
even took Missouri from its moorings,
the Democrat in North Carolina
have every oanse to be well satisfied
at th result in North Carolina as a
whole though disappointed at the
result in two or three oeuutie in the

THS 1902 TOTE.
In 1902 the vote that shows the
real strength of th two parties may
be said to have been the vote for
Corporation Commissioner. The
candidates of each paity received
thi party vote without scratching.
In that election the vote stood:
Beddiugfield, Democrat 135,840
Abbott, Republican, 68,209
Beddingfleld's majority... 67,631
THE 1900 TOTS.
In the election held in August
1900, before the amendment had
disfranchised so many negro voters,
Aycock had a majority of 60,354.
His vote was 186,650, while Adams
received 126,296.
In the November election of the
same year (also before th amend
ment went into effect) Bryan's vote
was:
Bryae 157,736
McKinley 132,997
24,739
And tbat vote was smaller than
tbs vote cast in 1896, fur in that
ar Bryan received 174,488 and Mc
Kinley received 155,222, leaving
Bryan a majority of 19,266. That
was the high water mark iu North
Carolina for Republicans.
THR BM1LLEK VOTS.
The smaller vote in North Chro
ma this year is, of course, chiefly
ue to the reduction of the vote by
th suffrage amendment bnt it was
argsly due to th fact that the real
eon tests wer settled in the Demo
cratic primaries, and many voters
felt tbat it was not necessary for
them to vote.
It is rather a matter for surprise
and congratulation that the vote was I
as large as it is, for the vote has 1
fallen to insiicnificeut proportions in
other State that have adopted
amendments limiting the enffratre.
The vote In North Carolina is re-
markably large when compared with
the vota of Louisiana or Missippi. It
is to be hoped that North Carolina
people will do better next year and
not fall into th non-voting habit.
