The news from Denver is not .surprising. i The greatest demonstration j ever accord to anay man ,was that recorded breaker at Denver on Wednesday, started by Bryan suDDorters when the name ot A t i their candidate was mentioned and lasting for one hour andi thirty minutes. If such enthusi asm as that could be transmitted to the democratic masses, directly TJiis base-ball craze is ; some- Ythmer fierce what's the matter -with the folks anyhow? If every democrat does his full . Sduty in this campaign, W. J. Bryan will be elected president in November. This is no year for lackers. Victory is the watch-"S7ard. Our .subscription list is grow ing. Fifteen new names added "before noon today. Not bad is it ? Now that the bond election and jsenatorial are out of the way, -we hope the people may be per anitted to enjoy a season of rest. The contest for State Senator is said to be "uncomfortably close." Mr. Ray appears to "have won by a safe, but small majority. And. it is not prob able that he will "jine the .radicals', and resign before his "term expires.

Presidential Candidate Taft ipps the scales at 297 1-2. Tha,ts getting pretty close around the 300 mark. Senator Simmons was chosen by the Tar Heelzdelegation at Denver as a member of the com mittee on resolutions and in ac cepting the honor stated he would support what Mr, Bryan wan ted. Good.

Let us hope the 'disease" is contagious and that the "lightning will strike" all 'round the country. BRYAN WILL Will. The nomination of William Jen nings Bryan for president by the National Democratic Convention was to have been expected. It was the work of the people, long before the convention met, that nominated the distinguished Nebraskan and the convention simply ratified their will. Mr. Bryan has been named because the masses jjsfere for him and be lieve he can be elected. Indica tions point that way and the people are going to see their will registered at the polls in November of this year, despite the efforts of special interests to the contrary. The , democratic party and its standard-bearer stand for the rights of the people and the latter are going to- be heard this year. No sort of question about that. 1908 is a democratic year and all "doubt ing Thomases" may as well get on the band wagon. BRYAN AND KERN. The Democratic National Con vention held in Denver last week named William Jennings Bryan, of Nebraska and John W. Kern, of Indiana, as the party's candi dates for President and Vice- President, respectively. " Mr. Bryan was distinctly the choice of the masses and their will was registered by a conven tion vote of 892 to 105, forty-six delegates supporting Governor Johnson, of Minnesota, and fifty- nine voting for Judge George Gray, of Delaware. The practi cal unaniminty of action, which resulted in Mr.. Bryan's nomina- tni. at Denver, -is a hopeful sign.

The party presents Mr. Bryan as its standard-bearer again more hopeful than ever before of his election. He has grown ir wis dom, with age, since his first nom ination twelve years ago, and the splendid platform, dictated by him and unanimously adopted by the convention, shows the Great Commoner in the highest rank of true statesmanship, rather than the unsafe and "insane' dreamer his enemies have pictur- i ea mm as Deing since ne was first nominated for president in 1896. Mr. Jonn w. Kern, who was named as Bryan's running mate, is said to be a man of strong foharacter, great ability and wide influence, having led his party in many hard fought battles in his county and State. It is uni versally admitted that his nom ination has brought strength to Uhe ticket in the North Central States and elsewhere. Mr. Kern has served his party in the Leg islature many times and became its leader in the State Senate. He was the democratic candidate for Governor of Indiana in 1900, but that was a republican year and he went down in the land slide. Let us hope that better "luck" awaits him this year. We are confident of such a contusion. -J ioiisly awaithg aft'rit"'ip Uaceept- " ' is - C Mr:- Crawford 4opde pvv AV ucw r -:J wfficlujwent to the convention ynstructed, vo$ed solidly for Bry&n - wjlo, al&, received the unanimous vote of Alabama, Ar kansas,"' California, Colorado, Florida, Idh0 Illinois, Indiana, JJousiana, Massaeksetts; Michi gan, Mississippi, Jftesottrj, Mon tana, Nebraska; Nevada, New Hampshire, Nortlj Carolina, North Dakota, Qfcio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, si : iuW th EepresktjV :3VffliamT.y&aw goings iriiles to witness..- -"-Mr. J Crawford is in. just the- rtg.fo unto the erstwhile "prosperity spieler" who v goes up against . ham.

Executive Committee. This sel ection was made unamniously by the North Carolina delegation in Denver on Wednesday and will be generally approved by the democracy of the State.

Mr. Bryan is unmistaka bly the people's friend, and of all classes. Recently in giving his estimate of the man, Governor Glenn said: "Mr. Bryan stands for the widest broadest, most progress ive andsoiindest principles of Jef ferson Democracy; so Democracy must be shallow, else Bryan is intensely profound. If to s be narrow is to stand for. a 'govern ment of the people, by the people BIGGEST NORTH CAROLINIAN Really thevbiggest man in the democratic convention at Char lotte was Charles B. Aycock. He was a most zealous and de voted supporter of Craig who was defeated for the nomination for governor. After his candi date had lost, and the cause for Which that candidate stood, Gov ernor AyPck moved to make the nomination of William W. Kitch in unanimous but in making this motion he said very frankly j t am too fresh from the conflict to,beable to share with the vic tors their great enthusiasm. I come with a heat that is sore for the defeat of as gallant a gentleman as ever led a brave army in' any conflict," and then foxetting the man in his loyalty to his- party he declared that while thd resentments and bitter ness created during the struggle "may rankle in our hearts for some time -we will take and trans fer them into a powerful argu ment and force against the com mon enemy,' therepublican parjy. t hat was wen mw, Jwgoqk never says any thing that fs ot well said.

Charles Brantley Aycock is the superior of any North Carolinian who is, or has been in public life since the palmy days of our be loved Zebulon "Baird Vance. The people love him' for his real worth and are only waiting for an opportunity to agin call him WELL SAID. This- in from the Asheville Gazette-News of yesterday after noon : According to our understand ing of the conditions, Hender sonville should and will have no difficulty in disposing of the re cently authorized issue of side walk bonds. The improvements for which these bonds are to pay add a great deal to that town, and will enhance the value of every foot of land in it Hen dersonville is one of the prettiest places in the world, and its gen eral appearance has easily been improved 50 per cent, by the ad dition of these fine, wide side walks. It is an investment that is bound to bring returns to a resort town. You have sized up the situation exactly, Brother Godby. The proposition for bonds was car- ried "fairly and squarely" andj there is no reason for experi-j encing any difficulty iq placing j them. Every requirement of! the law, as defined by the Su-: preme court, has been complied with and the work will now be j pushed to an early completion, i Public sentiment has changed rapidly since the walks were laid and a majority of those di- rectly interested is favorable to the improvement. Fact, is the progressive prop erty owners on Anderson Avenue isortn Main street ana some "further south," would not per mit the contractor to 'suspend r operations," when the issue was carried into the courts, but guaranteed the payment of all expenses incurred in laying the new walks by personal contri butions, in the event of an ad verse decision. All realize that this is one of the greatest , im provements ever started in Hen dersonville and a fine investment for the property owners and the city, as well. The visitors are delighted and this very move ment is going to prove to be of untold benefit to "one of the prettiest places in the world." We thank our Asheville neighbor for its kind words.
