The Times ha& turtner expressed surprise that your League has not taken action in openly oppos ing both these political organizations. "You will remember that after this State had voted prohibition by a large majority, you and your fellow leaders told our people the fight had just begun, and that the next Btep was to carry the matter before the National Congress and fight for na tional legislation that would curtail the liquor traffic by preventing the shipment of liquor into this and other dry States. Such legislation is now pending in Congress. The question arises, 'How can we hope to succeed in passing national legislation that wil curtail the liquor traffic if we help elect, either by our votes, or by quietly failing to show our opposi tion, a President and a Vice-President, both of whom are avowed local optionists?' You are well aware of the fact that both Woodrow Wilson and Governor Marshall, the Demo cratic nominees for President and1 the powers have about given up hope of success in that direction. , ' A well developed case of yellow fever was taken from the British steamer Chaucer when the vessel ar rived at Quarantine station, at the mouth of the Mississippi River Tues day. The patient is a Greek, who boarded the steamer at Santos, Bra zil. Babe Yarborough, a negro railroad workman, who is alleged to have at tempted assault on a twelve-year-old white girl, at Americus, Ga., was taken from the sheriff late Friday af ternoon and hanged by a rope to a bridge near Oglethorpe. His body was then riddled with bullets. was sent East for the purpose of causing a similar explosion. He 23-j naHy dynamited a railroad bridge at Worchester, Mass.. on October 10th. McManigal is said to have received $200 for each job. j The opening statement charged: that $1,000 monthly was appropriat-J ed by the executive board of the iron J workers for dynamiting the work ofj non-union workmen. The district at torney asserted that Herbert S. Hock in, now acting as secretary and treas urer of the union, gave the govern ment information regarding the al leged conspiracy. Edward a ark Pleads Guilty. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 7. Ed ward Clark, of Cincinnati, pleaded guilty to the Government's charges in the dynamite conspiracy. As soon as court opened Prosecutor Miller, addressing Judge Anderson, told the court that defendant Clark declined to change his f ormer plea of not guilty.

Statesville Landmark. Mr. Waddy, a drummer from Nor folk, Va., shot himself Saturday in the leg while in the office of the Vance Hotel at Henderson. The wound was of a serious nature and it was found necessary to take him to the hospital. The shooting is said to have been accidental. The Statesville Landmark says that "O. R. Rand, of Smithfiled, the father of Billy Rand, who met his death at the University by hazers in the early part of September, has re tained Justice & Broadhurst, of Greensboro, to assist Solicitor Gattis in the prosecution of the young men who are alleged to be responsible for young Rand's death. The trial is to take place at the criminal term of court of Orange County, which be gins next Monday, 14th, Judge Whed bee presiding." ! to prohibition. You are also aware, doubtless, that the Anti - Saloon ' League of Maryland notified the 1 Democratic committee that if they ' sent Governor Marshall into that State the League would be forced to openly oppose the ticket." Thinks He Shot Himself in a Dream. Mr. Mack Carson, a young man from Hendersonville who is working with an extra bridge force at Second creek bridge, between Barber Junc tion and Salisbury, came to States ville yesterday to have a gun shot wound dressed by Railway Surgeon Anderson. The wound was received in a rather unusual manner. Car son was made watchman at the bridge Sunday night and about 5 o'clock yesterday morning he acci dentally went to sleep. He said he was sure he had been asleep only a few minutes when a passing train awoke him and when he was aroused! he found that he had received a bul-l let in his right leg. His own pistol was at his side with one cartridge discharged and it is believed that while dreaming he accidentally drew the weapon and pulled the trigger. The bullet entered the fleshy part of the leg just below the knee and was taken out by Dr. Anderson Statesville Landmark. Kitchin Charges Simmons Entered Into a Lumber Deal With Lorimer. In his speech in Goldsboro Satur day Governor Kitchin went into the skinning business with Senator Sim ,mons as his subject. A special from Goldsboro to Sunday's Greensboro News says: "He charged that Simmons had Lorimer to visit him at his New Bern home and had entered into a lumber deal with Lorimer; that Simmons in his talk about the Lorimer "jack pot" had shown his familiarity with the game, while he declared with hands raised In holy horror that he (the governor) had never seen a "jack pot" and did not know what one looked like. He charged that Simmons' state ment that he would resign if he was not elected chairman of the finance committee was a political bluff, a game that Senator Simmons was good at; that as a matter of fact Simmons would not resign. A Voice From Watauga County. Union Republican. Mr. Editor: Being a reader of your paper and not seeing anything from old Watauga for some time, I thought I would inform you that the people were not all dead up the mountains, and were not all supporting Mr. Taft, by a horn full. The Republicans of this county are for Theodore Roose velt, for President, ten to one. I note, Mr. Editor, that you are sup porting Mr. Taft and opposing Mr. Roosevelt, and I dont' know for what cause, unless it is through party loy alty, that is, that you believe Mr. Taft to be the choice of the Republican party. Now I want to ask you who compose the Republican party? Is it the great masses of voters who elect ed McKinley and Roosevelt, or is it Barnes, Penrose, Root, McKinley and a defunct national committee and the office-holders under Mr. Taft? If the latter, then, of course, you are repre senting the party's choice, but if the rank and file of Republican voters, then you are ignoring their expressed demands. Of course, you would say that Mr. Roosevelt is not a Republi can, anti not running on the Republi can platform. Now I want to say that if Mr. Roosevelt does not rep resent the Republican party by name, he does represent them by principle, because the progressive platform is the same document the Republicans demanded at Chicago, but whose pow er was crushed and rights denied. You know and every other informed man knows that in nearly every State wrhere the people had a voice they were overwhelmingly for Roosevelt, and more especially in those States that have a Republican majority. So if you are for party loyalty come out for Theodore Roosevelt, the champion of the people, who the ma jority of the Republicans are support ing, whose just claims will be proven on November 5th. I am, Yours for Roosevelt, J. M. YOUNCE. Yuma, N. C. National Park Bank officials of New York report that two hundred thousand dollars, consigned to the bank by the National Bank of Ha vana, Cuba, has disappeared. The money was forwarded to the frm by its Cuban correspondent in a regis tered mail package. All trace of the package was lost last week. Post office inspectors are probing the case. Maude Malone, a suffragette, was ejected from a meeting that Gover nor Johnson, Progressive Vice-Presidential nominee, was addressing in New York Friday night. She asked: "What about woman's suffrage?" The Governor said he would reply presently. She continued to stand. Cries were made, "Put her out," and several men seized her and did so. The Governor asked that she be al lowed to stay. Stories of privation and suffering without precedent in the history of Central American warfare are com ing to the State Department from its agents in Nicaragua. The pitiful feature is the terrible affliction of women and small children and the utter inability of all relief agencies to meet the demand for immediate food supplies for the starving people. A disastrous drouth has. completely blighted the Nicaraguan crops and dried up the native fruits, adding to the horrors of warfare. Statesville Landmark. GREAT STATE FAIR RALEIGH, N. C.
