Both sets of candidates claim that they are having good sized audiences. The bull moose candidates spoke yesterday at Flat creekj where, in spite of the rainy day, there were some 50 men present. The largest audience that the bull moose have had was at Barnardsville, where they opened the campaign Sat urday, when there were over 100 men present. County Chairman J. E. Swain of the democratic party was present and undertook to answer some ijuestlons concerning the Increased salaries of the county officials, Which were put to him by W. G. Fortune, bull moose candidate for the state senate. The bull mooso an: making this the main point In their fight. On the stump Mr. Fortune tells the people that he has served notice on his colleagues that if he is elected he will have the salaries put back to the old figures, and if they do not wish to work for the old salaries they had better combine to defeat him now. This has doubtless struck a popular chord. Mr. Fortune Insists that the register of deeds' salary should be put back from $2400 to $2100; the sheriff's from $2400 to $2U0; the dork's from $2700 to $2400; the treasurer's from $2000 $1750; the auditor's from $1800 to $1500. ; .. .'-' Mr. Fortune says that Deputy Clerk Witness Quotes the Governor as aying He Wasn't Afraid of C.

Ill DYNAMITE TRIAL Government Introduces Evi dence to Show Complicity of Defendants. i to establish school library. The campaign has so far been con ducted on a high plane and the candl dates have not descended to personali ties. The democrats are claiming that their records are clear and that they have properly administered the affairs of tlie county J. F. Barrett, bull moose candidate for auditor, Is making an attack on the republican candidate for governor, Thomas Settle. He charges that some years ago Mr. Settle voted part of the county democratic ticket, and pro duces a ticket, which Is scratched to a considerable extent, and which he says is the identical ticket voted at that time by Mr. Settle. Concerning Mr. Settle, there has been a great deal or inquiry as 10 whether he will speak at Ashevllie. In an advertisement of his list of ap pointments it Is seen that Mr. Settle has an appointment to speak nere on Washington, Oct. 15. Cleveland It. Dodge, who collected $85,000 for Gov- ernor Wilson's campaign, which In cluded $12,500 from Cyrus H. McCor mick of the International Harvester company told the Clapp committee to day that he realized "there might be some question about the McCormlck money." Dodge said he feared tho government's suit to dissolve the Har vesting company might arouse adverse criticism and asked McCormick to take the money back. The question vtas left to Wilson. "The governor said' he was willing to receive the rjioiiev and wasn't afraid to take it," suid Dodge. . "McCormlck gave the money just aS'he would have given It to Vilnceton university."' Vpwards of $400,000 was expended In the efforta of Uovernor Woodrow Wilson, Governor Judson Harmon and Representative Oscar Underwood to gain the democratic presidential nom ination this year, according to testi mony presented to tlie senate cam paign contributions ebmmlttee. i ' William F. McComba, who managed the Wilson campaign and his aide, ; William McAdoo, accounted for $208,- 193. Of this sum. $85,800 was con- , tributed, according to Mr. McCombs, : by "Cleveland H. Dodge and. Princeton : friends." . Questioning developed that the "friends" were Cyrus H. McCor mlck of the International Harvester company, David B. Jones, Thomas D. Jones and Edwurd W.. Sheldon, 11 it f whoi7 Mr. MeCohibs'said, had ' bf"en. trustees at Princeton when Mr. Wilson was president of the university, Of. the $150,945.45 expended In the ; Interest of Governor Harmon, Hugh U Nichols, lieutenant governor of the state, told the committee $77,000 was contributed by Thomas Fortune Ryan. Mr. Ryan also supplied 35,000 of a fund of $52,000 collected for the ad vancement of Representative Under wood's candidacy. Mr. McCombs, the first witness of the day, was particularly emphatlo in the declaration that none of the contributions to Governor Wilson's campaign fund reflected "any promise, expressed or implied." He said he be lieved his accounts represented practi cally all expenditures for Governor Wilson except $6,575, accounted for by Mr. McAdoo, who supplemented tho testimony of his chief.
