North Carolina Democrats are ex - pected to contribute something like 450,000 for the Democratic campaign this year. At least National Com jnitteeman A. W. McLean of Lum herton, hopes to raise approximately that much and McLean generally does -what he attempts to do. The btate raised something over' $31,000 four -years "aeo. If that much could be raised then Democrats handling the national campaign believe that $50, 000 this year should be easy." National Committeeman McLean spent today in Washington conferring with Democratic leaders. For the past week he has been in New, York "and other eastern cities conferring -with the Democrats of the east. While in New York he conferred with Na tional Chairman McCormick, Vice Chairman Homer Cummings and Sec Tetary Carter Glass of Virginia,, The leaders told Mr. McLean that the na tional committee is counting on North Carolina to raise her part of the cam paign fund which must be had to xun the campaign this year. Mr. McLean completed arrange ments with - the national leaders whereby he believes a larger amount n be raised by popular subscription in the Tar Heel State. He has apian Tinder advisement which he thinks -will bring results. It is proposed to -appoint at least one man- and probably two, in each congressional district who will be authorized to olicit and receive funds. Mr. Mc Lean believes with 15 or 20 live men -working for the party he will have little trouble in getting the $50,000 desired. " , - It is pointed out that North Caro lina has fared better in the waypf getting federal jobs than any other taf in tW union. ? The state has one cabinet member and a number of other good positions paying all the way from $3,000 to $12,000 a ' year. ..-''.' 1 The State has one ambassador, a momhor nf the lame ducks roost, who gets $7,500 a year and a liberal ex-J . . 1-i.il -v An. pense account ana mue the secretary to the roost is aJTar Heel receiving a salary of $4,000 a year and expenses when traveling; Di rector of the Census Samuel Rogers, Rnnn PnmmisRioTier W.

I would not be opposed at the With all of these places combined with the Federal patronage distribut ed in the State including something like 100 deputies in the internal rev enue service and several hundred post masters, it is contended by the na tional committee that North Carolina should not be lagging but should come across with a real good contribution. While in NewYork Mr.McLean.talk d with many men of both big and lit tle business. He found a number of dyed in the wool Republicans who naid they wouia not voie ir im.i because' Hushes is a Renublican but some of them admitted that "Wi 'on ;houl(' be re-elected air!in, and tlm he hed a rood chance of turning the trick.

H, ?" n;n "V dined to minimi,, thi Wl1 which had been situation of the nieht riders' activ- ities. Rumors reaching a high of ficial here today indicated that a somewjjat similar condition may ex ist in another county south of here, The rumors were not definite enough to announce the locality of the new trouble zone. A letter received oy Judge Oliver li. Allen, of superior Court, here yesterday intimated that conditions in Duplin were increasingly bad. Judga Allen sajd the btate had not decided upon what course it would pursue. Troops, he thinks, are not needed yet.- ' - - The stock law, which is supposed to be in force in Duplin but is not in all sections of i and which is the cause of the trouble, will be repeal-i ed as the result of a popular elec? tion when the county has been fenc ed in as a protection to adjoining counties under the law. The Duplin people voted for free range in pref erence to the law which is in effect in Lenoir, its northern neighbor, and other counties of the section. But the -fence around the county has not yet been constructed for reasons not ing to abide by the law's provisions until the repealing act goes into force are Jbeing intimidated- and shot at and their property destroyed. Actual loss of life is "possible" unless there is quick action, but the authorities do not consider it prob able. Judge ' Allen understands that an even larger area is being overrun by the night riders than was first re ported here this week, "lwo or three towships lying to the south of Beulahville". a score of miles from here, have experienced outrages andi had glimoses of a small, slow riding band of masked men. beardless as well as bearded, in the dead hours of night. That the raiders would not hesitate to kill to enforce their will is indicated bv the fact that persons have been shot at a number of times. Arson has played no part in their activities so far as report ed. - ... Prominent men. se'eral in num ber, opposed to the enforcement of the stock law. are believed to be among - theiight -riders or encour aging them. It is not believed, that steps have been taken to gunrd against further outrages, other than the "organiza tion of bands of citizens to protect thnmselves and property. j Judge Allen, who has considerable influence with all classes in Duplin countv and is reitH to persons in the county, and Solicitor H. E. Shawl ! ejected to eo there as soon as Col. Shaw can get away from a lynching investigation he is partic ipating in here. Ship In Distress T if l . T a l. T 1 in .ew i or -impawn, , -my .

The Germans, follow ing up their success in the region of Damloup battery, have undertaken a strong offensive toward Ford Souville the , possession of which would strengthen their position for a fur ther advance on Verdun. Attacking in mass formation from the village of Fleury and the Chapitre and Vaux woods, the Germans gain ed ground at the intersection of the Fleury and Vaux roads. The gain, however, Paris asserts, was made at the lcost of "enormous losses" r , Violent bombardments continue in the,, region of Douville, Chenois and LaLaufee. There was relative calm on the left bank of the Meuse .r. The fierce fighting which has mark ed the Russian advance across the Stokhod river toward Kovel appears to have quieted down. Petrograd says fcnere has be&n fighting on this sec tion, but mentions only two minor attacks by the German which; it adds, were repulsed.
