As to Congressional Race. In an interview this morning with Mr. H. L. Cook, he was asked the ques tion If be was a candidate for the Congressional-nomination next year. He stated in reply "that It was well known throughout the Sixth District and es peclally among his friends, that he has an ambition to represent his people in Congress, and that last year im mediately after the convention In Fay etteville, he announced in a letter to his friends that as soon as the Held was 'open' again, that he would be a candidate and make a fight to the finish. He says that many of his friends are urging and Insisting that he make announcement of his candida cy now, but that he has refrained from doing so, as he wanted to ascertain the sentiment of the district, as he does not want to ask his friends to support him without some reason to believe that there will be a change and that he will announce his position in ample time and requests that his friends hold themselves in readiness to give him their support should he decide that conditions Justify his be coming a candidate." '' ' Mr. J. C. Drewry Makes A Statement. 8tate Senator John C. Drewry as president, of the Evening Times Com pany published a statement in Sat urday's Issue of his paper In explana tion of his relation with the Times and with the $6,000 vouchers unearth ed In the Investigation of the books of the Southern Railway in Washing ton last week.. There is also a lead ing editorial under the head: "A Word Personal" In which 8. L. Rotter says without comment: "This afternoon I tendered my res ignation as editor of the Raleigh Even ing Times to take effect at once. (Signed "S. L. ROTTER." In his statement Drewry says his ambition has been to publish an Ideal afternoon paper In Raleigh conserva tive and Independent. With this in view he approached Col. A. B. An drews, vice-president of the Southern Railway Company, and asked him how he would like to see such a paper with full Associated Press dispatches and asked what he would contribute to ward the enterprise. He said that Col. Andrews replied he would take no stock but would give advertising to the extent of a few thousand dollars upon the Times publishing schedules, special notices and such clippings from other papers as he might desig nate, the editorial column to be left entirely wl the editpr; that all the arrangements were then made for en larging the Times before he had any Idea of being a candidate for the State. Senate. " He says the' two vouchers from the Southern for $2,000 each In April and August,1906, were received by him from Col. Andrews and turned over to Geo. B. Crater,-business man ager: - --- Continuing Mr. Drewry says the lat ter part of January last. Colonel An drews gave him another check for $2, 000 payable to the Times for adver tising, but that after thinking over the matter several hours he concluded that being then State Senator, he had best return the check and that he handed it back to Henry Miller, of the Southern, who returned It to the treasury of the company at Washing ton as an Investigation of the books will show. This he says he did lest there be criticism even though this payment was In fulfillment of a con tract the Times Company entered into before he was a candidate for the State Senate. Drewry declares that his record" In the Senate shows he was controlled by no corporation or by the Southernj citing the fact that he voted for a reduction of passenger fares to 2 1-2 cents" and then when the conference report agreed on 2 1-4 cents he voted for that. He says In , conclusion he has served the Times Company as president and part of the time as gen eral manager without one cent of con pensatlon and has allowed the plant to remain in his own building more than two years without paying rent besides paying $10,000 cash into the paper. Further, that he has had no desire or thought that the Times would prove a profitable Investment from a pecu niary standpoint but has labored to build up this paper, believing ultimate ly It would prove a power for good in. the State.

NORTH CAROLINA BANK8. A Splendid Showing. The following telegram forwarded Friday evening, by Mr. Chas. N. Evans, vice-president of the American Bank ers' . Association for North Carolina, Is self explanatory: . ; Mr. James R. Branch, Secretary, American Bankers' Association, At lantic City, N. J. Sickness detaining me, I desire you announce for North Carolina three new banks per month for past, year, with no failures. Abundant crops and large accession of new capital and new citizenship. Mills and manufac turing working over time, but handi capped by insufficient capital, which condition extendsjas well to banking institutions in agricultural sections.

Also takes first rank among all the states engaged in the manufacture of smoking and chewing tobaccos. , C. N. EVANS, Cashier, Southern National Bank, Wilmington, N. C, and Vlce-Pres-dent for North Carolina. WHAT HA8 BEEN DONE IN SUMTER By Womens' Civic Association. The following is from the Charlotte Chronicle and will prove of interest to Fayetevllle people in view of the work being done here by the local as sociation: "The Chronicle has told of the or ganization of women In LIncolnton for the purpose of beautifying that town and keeping it clean, and of th general spirit of the civic Improvement that Is being awakened. The move ment Is quite general in South Carol! an. The women of Sumter have form ed a Municipal League. The work of the League includes the sanitary Im provement of Sumter, cleansing Its Jail, beautifying Its streets and public squares. Improving the school grounds, taking care of the new $100,000 court house, providing a resting room for women and fitting up the depot grounds. The Greenville News, from which we get these facts, says that other South Carolina towns are doing similar work. It instances that when Mr. Kelsey first visited Greenville, and was consulted for the Improvement of the Monaghan and Pelzer Hills grounds, he was on his way to Marlon for consultation with Municipal Lea gue of that place, composed entirely of women, and Marlon, through the efforts of Us women, was the first South Carolina town to have a report prepared for Its . Improvement by1 ex perts and they raised the funds. It was on that first trip that the ladies of Columbia engaged the firm of Kelsey & Guild, at a cost of $1,000 to prepare a report on beautifying and improving Columbia, which they themselves fi nanced, and which has since been en' dorsed and adopted by the city coun cil. The Ladies' Civic League of . An derson is also making a fine record of well-thought-out activities and large expenditures for the city's good. Among other things, Anderson has a handsome well-planned public square and a costly fountain and a most pop ular swimming pool. "It Is gratifying to read these evi dences of "the spirit of the times." When the women generally become in terested in Improving the towns, life Is going to be made much more attrac tive." CUMBERLAND OUTLAW Captured in South Carolina. Lewis West, outlawed in Cumber land about a year ago, has come to grief in South Carolina. He was re cently arrested by detective Scar borough,' of the A. C. L. near Dillon, charged with wholesale robberies of freight from that railroad, and was sentenced last week to a term in the penitentiary. West fled from a number of crave charges in this county, and was out lawed. He was known as a bad ne gro, and always went armed with a double-barreled shot gun. Both Bound Over. John Hardlson and his wife Caro line, were tried before 'Squire Overby yesterday on -charges of assault with deadly weapons and both were obund over, to court Hardlson was required to give a bond of $50, and his wife was released on her own rec-: ognlsance.'

MR. BRYAN'8 VI8IT TO FAYETTE ;, " - ": .. - VILLE. From Tuesday's Dally. ' An enthusiastic meeting of citizens was held to-day for the purpose of mapping out the preliminary woj-k re quired for the suitable reception, and entertainment of the Great Commoner upon the occasion of his visit to Fay ettevllle on Tuesday, October 15th two weeks from today. V f " Upon motion, Major E. J. Hale was asked to. act as chairman of the cen tral committee, and to name his as sociates thereon. He has named them as Mows;7 Messrs. 3. H. Anderson, H. L. Cook, C. J. Cooper, H. R.HoT, A. A. McKethan, JD, McNeill, Q. K. 'NimockS, J. A. Oates, C G. Rose and J. G. Shaw; and they are in session as we go to press. They will appoint the numerous committees required for so- great an occasion transportation, reception, entertainment horsemen, etc. , As indicated at tie outset, great en thusiasm was manifested at the morn ing's meeting, and It was confidently predicted that many thousands es timates aa high , as twenty-five thous and being made would take advant age of Fayettevllle's central location in South Eastern North Carolina to greet and to listen to the greatest liv ing American; or, as one distinguished gentleman put It, and truly in our opin ion, the greatest living man. The Mayor will be asked to call a public meeting on Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock,- to give expression to the feelings of gratification with which the community anticipates this event. Mr. Bryan has several times ex pressed the desire to come to this part of the Stats the great Cape Fear and Pee Dee section but his itinerary on his previous visits to North Caro lina lay along the trunk railway lines tn Central and Western North Caro lina, 'and none of these come very near to Fayettevllle. We doubt not that Mr. Bryan, also, will enjoy his visit; for, not only are our people proverbially hospitable, but he will, view here the spot upon which North Carolina acceded to the Union by adoption of the Federal Constitu tion, ';and,wlthsympatheticlntereBt,wlll recall that that act was postponed by our liberty loving people' until the adoption of the amendments guaran teeng State's Rights was assured. Mr. Bryan will be Fayettevllle's most distinguished visitor since General La fayette made his formal visit to the town In 1825, notable as the list has been since then. The catholicity of his welcome is attested by the pres ence at the meeting this morning of gentlemen of all shades of belief, our most prominent Republican be ing of the number.

The Committee on Streets of the Women's Civic Improvement Associa tion met yesterday. At the outset the ladles expressed their gratification over the fact that the city authorities were beginning to work on the streets. "Is It the voice of the people to have an artesian well at the Market House?" This was a question dis cussed, but not settled upon, though it was the sentiment of the committee that the well should be dug. A resolution was passed requesting merchants to sweep sidewalks In front of their stores every day, and to open goods boxes in rear of store, and when unavoidable to have boxes and rub bish removed as soon as possible. It was decided to ask the Board of Aldermen to furnish one dozen gal vanized covered receptlcles to be placed on the streets for papers and other trash. A resolution was also - passed re questing all residents to pay attention to their sidewalks, and to beautify their premises. To Correspondents. If the writer of the article signed "K. W.

It has been ru mored that Mr. Bryan will make a strong political address and very prob ably announce In pretty general terms the platform which he would like to see adopted by the National Demo cratic Convention.
