Politicians here say Massachusetts can' never again be counted in the Republican column after this tremendous Democratic increase. Kansas is fully re-claimed by the Republicans. All the Farmers' Alli ance talk in that State has' turned out to be the merest bosh. The farm ers stuck to their original Republican allegiance.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTElt. The Election in Difte.-ent Slates Much In to est Manifested The Result a FdVerast of What May be'Kxwled In 180U An otter Lawyer Salem '..Doesn't Want to DM,Quay is Mad -ffce Yi stCanc Sugar :! nt y. (SPECIAL COR. THE ADVANCE.) Washington, Nov. 1st, 1891. The Democrats have perfect ar rangements by which the latest news of the Tuesday s election can be ob rained here. A soecial wire is al ready in position and byTVVednesday night at the latest, return are expect ed to have been- received from every quarter. " Elections will be held in Colorado, Iowa, Maryland, Massa chusetts, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Tersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylva nia and Virginia. Maryland will yote for governor and other State officers and legislative. It will also vote upon six proposed amendments to the State constitution. Colorado will elect a Supreme Judge ; Iowa, gov ernor, &c, and legislature and Mas sachusetts, governor and other State officers and legislature and vote on two constitutional amendments ; Mis sissippi, legislature and three railroad commissioners ; Nebraska, an asso ciate Justice of the Supreme Court and two regents ol the btate univer sity ; New Jersey, a part of the two house oi the legislature ; INew York, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, controller, treasurer, attorney general, engineer and. surveyor; leg islature, ten Justices of the Supreme Court; Ohio, governor, other state officers and legislature and vote on a constitutional amendment providing for uniformity of taxation ; Pennsyl vania, treasurer, auditor general and vote whether a constitutional conven tion shall be held and elect delegates to the same ; Virginia, half of each house of the legislature. At the same time members of Con gress to suoolv vacancies will be T1 J chosen as follows : In the second, tenth, twelfth, and twenty-second New York districts ; in the fifth Mich iean : in the second South Dakota. The vacancy in the second Tennes see will be filled on the 21st of No vember, that in the eighth Virginia on the 1 8th of the same month. Seldom have State elections been looked forward to with as great in terest as those which will take place next Tuesday. The doctrine of the proctection of Amercan industry is on trial in a different manner from any of its previous trials before an American popular jury. It comes up with an amendment providing for a reciprocal trade with other countries, which may be tantamount to a par tial free trade. It is safe to say that if the States of Ohio, Iowa, and Mas sachusetts are saved to the Republi cans this year their salvation will be due largely to the reciprocity pro gram. The history of politics for the last six or eight years, at least, shows that the people are not infat uated with the doctrine of extreme or high protection unrelieved. But it also shows that the principle of mod erate protection, with an outlet for our products, is held by a majority with increasing belief in its efficacy as a means both of raising revenue and of private profit and general ad vantage. Of hardly secondary im portance is the closely related ques tion of the -currency.- There has been some effort ol the two old parties to settle within their respective organi zations the .internal differences that exist east and west, north and South on the free coinage of silver. Practi cally these parties are alike in princi pie in New York and Massachusetts In Iowa and Ohio the Democratic pianorm deliverances have been at variance with their party platform in the east, for while the latter have laid large stress on "honest" money the former have embraced the doctrine of free silver with great effusiveness Nevertheless, it is to be noticed that Gov. Campbell, the Democratic leader in the buckeye State, has not waged his campaign on the issue iaid down by- the convention of his party. Therefore, it ne oe successiui next Tuesday, the victory cannot be claimed with propriety by the free coinage men. But if he be elected by reason of a large country vote of the third or so-called people's party that political influence will have to be accorded a place in all political calculations. That organization fig ures appreciably nowhere else in the fall elections. The elections of Tues nav next are expected to indicate very much' of what the presidential election next year will more definitely settle. Mr. Chas. M. Yates has resigned his position as photographer in the geological survey, to take effect November 30. He will leave next Tuesday to begin the practice of law at Winston, N. C. He is the second son of Ex-Congressman Jesse J. Yates, of Hertford county. This family will be valued acquisitions to the society of the progressive city in which he has chosen to locate. Col. Thomas B. Keogh, commis sioner of the World's Fair from North Carolina, accompanied by his wife and daughter, is at the Ebbitt There is great uncertainty here in the Post Office department as to the advisability ol consolidating the Win ston and Salem post offices. The department officials told me Friday the consolidation is favored because of its evident economy and convenience. The Salem people are opposed to this because it would eliminate the official name of Salem, from Winstan-Salem as the twin cities are now called. Salem has sent a strong protest against this here by Rev. John Clew ell, one of her most progressive and able citizens. It is manifestly unjust to drop the name of Salem. Her history ofthe past century entitles her the utmost consideration and her name should continue to be linked with that progressive younger sister. Mrs. Arthur Glennan, formerly Miss Susie Rayner, has returned to Washington for the winter with her two little boys, and is stopping at 918 McPherson Square. Senator Quay said yesterday after noon that suit would be brought against the Beaver Star, a new Dem ocratic paper of Beaver, Pa., which published a fac simile of the Bardsley certificates. The Senator sent the following telegram to Controller F. S. Lacey: "I beg to informed, at your earliest convenience, by whom and by whose authority or permission a certificate of desposit for $8,877, dated Novem ber 28, 1886, indorsed by John Bardsly and by me, which is among the papers of the Keystone Bank, an institution in the custody of the United States, was delivered to the Democratic State Committee to be photographed, lithographed and pub lished throughout the States by the Democratic press as is now being done r ' M. 5. Quay." Controller Lacey telegraphed last evening disclaiming any knowledge of the origin of the order for the delivery of the Quay-Bardsley check to the Demooratic State Committee. Mr. Lacey is endeavoring to ascertain how the Democratic State Commitee secured the famous check. The first payment of sorghum sugar bounty, under the lanfl act was made Saturday in the form of a treasury draft for $1,318.26, drawn 111 favor of J. W. Dougherty & Co., of New Orleans, and respresenting bounty on 65,963 pounds of cane sugar. STAID OLD STANTONSRLRG Ts Getting Oat ofthe Kinks and Getting a Move on 'Itself. (special gor. to the advance) Stantonsburg, Nov. 3, 1891. Dear Advance : In your last issue you made a call for a corre spondent form this place. 1 am not mucn ot a newspaper writer, but thought I would give you a few items. Perhaps it will en courage some one to write up the news ot our place and neighborhood I trus,t you will be able to secure some one that is able to give you a good letter rrtm this place weekly. borne one ought to do it so the other parts of the county could learn where we live, who we are, and what we are doing. 1 have thought the Stantonsburg section the garden spot ol our good county. I think so perhaps because it is my home. I am am very sorry to have to say that our crops of all kind will be right much behind last years crop. Our largest farmer, that good and generous J. H. Applewhite, thinks we will be able to gather two-thirds of a crop. Cotton is very backward in opening. 1 ne good people are making ar rangements to build a new Methodist church at this place. It is reported that Dr. John J. Peacock, of Saratoga, will move here this winter. Stantonsburg's gain is Saratoga's loss. That popular widow, Mrs. Annie Bagley, I understand will also move here this winter. We have a very quiet people, therefore my letter will be short. That whole-souled, clever Bill Ap plewhite, who was married the sec ond time last winter, is a happy man. It is a girl. Our tobacco crop through this neighborhood is almost a failure. I understand our wide-a-wake neigh bor, Dr. J. T. Graves, has some verv fine tobacco. We; have some fine tobacco land, and after learning how RHEUMATISM neuralgia, and sciatica can always be successfully treated with Ayer's Sarsaparilla A cure is sure to follow the persistent use of this medicine. Has Cured Others will cure you. to handle the weed we will get there you bet. The firm of Applewhite & Lane are doing a good business, with that popular, polite Henry Lane at tne head as manager. Judging from the crowd that was around Mr. Tacob Mercers store Saturday night he, too is doing a good business. Our market man, Mr. rS. fc.. Gard ner, I hope is doing well. Messrs. Owens & Barnes are d.oing well in their mill and ginning business. Our popular Millinery store, kept by Mrs. O. L. Barnes and sister, has been closed for sometime on account of sickness. They were doing a thriving business. I hope to see it opened soon. Mr. W. M. Ward has newly nttea up his mill. We are glad to see Col. Stanton able to walk without a crutch again No deaths or marriages to report What is the matter, boys ? Yours for success, True. ELM CITY ITEMS. The News From Our Enterprising Neigh boring Town. (SPECIAL COR. THE ADVANCE) Nov. 3RD, 1 89 1. The Methodist ladies gave a fes tival here last Friday night for the benefit of the church. It was quite a success. Mrs. J. L. Baily and Mrs. J. B. Winstead, the managers, know exactly what to do to entertain the people, and our people know exactly how to appreciate such entertain ments. The young ladies of the town were nearly all present, and added much to the enjoyment of the occasion. We noticed among others present from a distance Messrs Wil lie Ricks and Charlie Tyson, of Wil son, and Misses Lula and Alice Norris, of Town Creek. We are reliabliy informed that somebody (guess who ?) will move to Elm City to live soon. That is right. George is a good fellow. We all like him, and we are more than glad to see him succeed matrimonial ly as well as financially. Mr. E. H. Vick, one of our level headed merchants says : "The cotton and corn crops of thts vicinity are at least one-fourth below the average. The tobacco crop is nearly an aver age in quantity but poor in quality. The peanut crop is good." Messrs J. L. Baily and W. H. Langley went to the Raleigh Expo sition last Thursday. They say it is a success. Miss Missie Barnes has, in con nection with the Elm City High School, a very interesting music class. Miss Missie is a teacher of considerable experience, and we learn her pupils are progressing finely. Several weeks ago Messrs W. B. Barnes & Bro. bought and moved into the large brick store in which the Racket had been run. They have a large and growing business. Two cleverer gentlemen would be hard to find, Success to them. J. T. Watson, Esq., and Missrs Cora Friar and Jennie Vaughn at tended church at Mt. Zion in the country Sunday. Miss lennie was enrolled at the Elm City High School Monday. Misses Louisa and Mollie Braswell of Town Creek and Bettie Mitchel, of Rocky Mount, have visited our town during the week. Come again, ladies, we are always glad to see you. there was a double runaway in town Tuesday evening which resulted . , f m in the smash up 01 a cart and a buggy, and serious damage to one ofthe animals. Capt. W. L. Grimmer is attending court at Wilson this week. The Capt. attends to a great deal of busi ness for a man of his size. He is one of our best citizens, and we are glad to know that he is succeeding well, both in his commercial transactions and on his farm. Elm City is in all probability on as firm a foundation financially as any town of its size in the State. Our people are slow to take risks where there are so many chances to lose. They seem to know their capacity to do business, and seldom ever over ieap it 1 he business of the town is not built on "booms ;" but on a firm and sure oasis. r aiiures here are very rare. Each merrchant is also a farmer. They know what it is to till the soil as well as buy and sell goods. Hence the conflict which seems to exist in some parts of the country between the merchant and the farmer is unknown here. They have long since learned that whatevei is for the general welfare of the one is for the good of the other. May such har mony forever prevail among us. Regular.

Hood's Sarsaparilla is a peculiar medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar combination, proportion, and preparation, curative power superior to any other article., A Boston lady who knew what she wanted,! and whose example is worthy imitation, tells her experience below: To Get " In one store where I went to buy Hood's Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to induce me buy their own instead of Hood's; hetoldmethelr's would last longer; that I might take It on ten days' trial; that If I did not like it I need not pay anything, etc But he could not prevail on me to chang". I told him I knew what Hood's Sarsaparilla was. I had taken It, was satisfied with it, and did not want any other. Hood's When I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla I was feeling real miserable, suffering a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak that at times I could hardly stand. X looked, and had for some time, like a person in con sumption. Hood's Sarsaparilla did me so much good that I wonder at myselfBometimes, and my friends frequenUy speak of it." Mns. Eixa. A.
