Commenting upon the election in the United States, the Morning Post says that president Mc Kinley may boast that ho is the elect of the whole people in a larger sense than any President since the war. The reduction of the Republican vote in the older centres of the country will, it may be hoped, warn the ad ministration to resume the best tra ditions of the party and assume a decided attitude in the conduct of public affairs. Not the least advan tage of the election is that the con trol of the Senate is likely to be in the hands of the more intellectual and soberer portion of the American poli ticians, and the enlightened spirit shown by Mr. Hay in the management of the State department will be further exhibited. The Post fears that little wisdom is to be expected from the victors in re ducing taxation and says that their obviously proper course would be to lower import duties, but this is im probable. The Graphic thinks the fact that Mr. Bryan polled as heavily as he did despite his disadvantages is an ugly omen for the future of the country. It says it is clear that in the United States, as in (Jermany, France, Aus tria and Italy, the tendencies of what used to be liberalism are toward socialistic extremes. From the Eng lish standpoint, it adds, there is every reason to welcome the result. The Daily Times says the elections mark the end of Bryanism and record the electoral approval of the policy of expansion. Mr. Bryan was impos sible. Some of his principles are ex cellent, and he is straightforward and sincere, but he is the victim of a hopeless infatuation and has acquired the fatal reputation of being a crank. The Standard, in its comments on the result, makes the same recom mendations that it made on the eve of the elections, and continues: "We congratulate President Mc Kinley upon obtaining a second term because we believe that on the whole he represents the causes and princi ples which make for the prosperity and advancement of his country." The Telegraph draws a parallel with the English elections and says: "Upon both sides of the ocean the Anglo-Saxon spirit was confronted with an epoch-making choice between advance or retreat. It responded with the same instinct to the same issue. America once for all has chosen to go forward, and there can not be a doubt in the minds of sane observers in any country, whether the fact itself is welcomed or dis liked, that when America, above all other nations, chooses to go forward she must go far." President McKinley has issued the following proclamation setting apart Thursday, November 29th, as a day of general thanksgiving: By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation: From Charles Vance's letters it ap pears that the late Senator Vance confided more to his son than the father knew himself. -Tarboro Souther ner. fc'c::i I. . 1': u :!! :-.t ' tuino not a curious present truiu a sea captain.

THE ANNIE LEE MONUMENT. A Splendid Picture of It Made by Mis Jessica Smith. Miss Jpssica Smith, of Henderson, who is one of North Carolina's most talented artists, boa painted a pictureof the Annie Lee monument near Warrenton, N C. The picture is pronounced by critics a ery fine one, and it will be hung in the norm Carolina room nt "White House," Richmond, Va. Thia monument was erected by the ladies of Warren county over the ashes of Miss Annie Carter Lee, who was the daughter of General Robert E. Lee, and MarV llllltia l,w hnrn nl i-linrrt rn Vn June 18,183'J,and died at White Sulphur Sorinirs. Warren enimtv V P fW 20, 18G2. The monument was unveiled Q'l August th, 188(5, in the presence of a great concourse of people, and with Major Generals G. W. ('. Lee and W. H. Lee in attendance as representatives of their family. On that occasion an elegiuc ode, writ ten by Capt. James Barron Hope, of Norfolk, Va., wus read by the author, Hud the following is an extract from it: AN ELEGIAC ODE. Lie chastens us as nations and as men. He smites us sore until our pride doth yield, And hence our heroes, each with hearts for ten, Were vanquished in the field; And stand today beneath our Southern sun O'erthrown in battle and despoiled of i.ope. Their drums all silent and their cause un-, done. I And they all left t i grope In daikness till God's own appointment tiaie In His own manner passeth fuily by. Our Penance this. His Parable sublim i Means we must learn to die. Not as our soldiers die I ben-ath their flags, Not as in tumult and in blood they fell, When from their columns, clad in homely rags, Rose the Confederate yell. Not as they died, though never mortal men Sinort Tabal Cain first forged his cruel blade Fought as they fought, nor ever shall aain Such Leader be obeyed ! No, not as died our kniuhtly, sol iier dead, Though tht-y, I trust, have found above success For all life's troubles, but on Christian bed Should we depait in peace, Falling asleep like those whose gentle deeds Are governed through time's passions and its strife, So Justly that we might erect uew creeds From each well ordered life, Whose saintly lessons are so framed that we May learn that pain is but a text sub lime, Teaching us how to learn at Sorrow's knee To value things of time. Thus thinking o'er life's promise-breaking dreams, Its lights and shadows made of hopes and fears, I say that Death is kinder than he seems, And not the King of tears. The complete poem is found in "Vance's Sketches of North Carolina," a book now out of print, and therefore very rare nud valuable. Miss Smith, uiter completing her pic ture, tried in vain to secure a copy of the book, and Mrs. Vance, hearing that she wanted the poem, made u copy of it with her own hand and sent it to her. This cpy the artist naturally prizes very highly. There are comparitively few people in the State now who know that one of General Tree's daughters is buried in North Carolina soil, and Miss Smith has done a noble work in calling attention to it by perpetuating the design of the monument the good people of Warren have erected to her memory. News and Observer. PRINCIPLES DO NOT DIE. Benton McMillin on the Defeat of the Democratic Party. Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 8. Gov. Benton McMillin, former President of the National Association of Demo cratic Clubs, has this to say as to the result and sequel of the recent elec tion. "The result of the National election is disappointing and unsatisfactory to me. The result in the State is grati fying. I believe that, notwithstand ing the clouds that hang over our horizon today, the future will be brighter for the party and the prin ciples of Jefferson. The principles of Democracy were not born for a day, but forever, for the party did not change principles when Jefferson, Jackson and Cleveland were defeated, and will not change new because Bryan was defeated. "Its principles of 'equal rights to all and special privileges to none,' peace, commerce and honest friend ship with all, entangling alliances with none, and the other principles laid down in Jefferson's first inaugu ral address, are eternal principles and will not change. Temporary issues may chauge, but the principles of the party are immutable, and whatever may be the vicissitudes and temporary conflicts the principles of free government will not be abandon ed by the masses of the great Demo cratic party. "If the Republic is to survive the principles of Jefferson and Jackson will not perish. Put out a strong ticket in four years and we will win." A soft answer may turn away wrath, but sometimes it comes hard. Florida's Democratie Plurality. Jacksonville, Fla.. Nov. 8. The of ficial returns from 338 precincts out of 667 in the state show the Democratic presidential electors received 17.930 votes to the Republican electors' 6,200. This will give Bryan a majority of 23. 000 in the state. Democratic candi dates for state house offices have approximately- 25.000 majority. Marion Butler's Senatoriit 1 Sae-raor. Raleigh, N. C Nov.

The Republicans, in addition to re electing President McKinley, have swept the country in the congressional elections, and will have, during the next two years, a working majority in both houses of the national legisla ture. The latest returns show that Mc Kinley will have 292 electoral votes. The figures give Bryan 155 electoral votes. McKinley carried all the states he did in 1S9C except Kentucky, and the PRESIDENT M'KINLEY. following states wnicn were then in the Democratic column: Kansas, South Dakota, Nebraska, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. The New England States are solid for McKinley. The Middle states all vote for him. The south is probably unchanged from the vote of 1896. It is in the far west, therefore, that Presi dent McKinley has made his greatest gains. New York Republicans rolled up a tremendous majority up the state. Be- VICE PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, sides giving McKinley a majority of 143.G22 in the state, they elected Odell and the full Republican state ticket. Pennsylvania cast its usual tremen dous vote for the national Republican nominees. The plurality for McKin ley and Roosevelt is 290.2G7.

Since early Tuesday afternoon, when it became apparent to those who were watching the progress of the election that Mr. Simmons was elected, telegrams and letters of con gratulation have been pouring in from all parts of the State, and from people of all classes and callings. In ad- lition to this, Mr. Simmons' ollice has been constantly crowded with ad mirers, anxious to shake the hand of the new Senator and congratulate him on his victory. In the election returns, it is very gratifying to Mr. Simmons to note that in Jones county, where he was born and lived for twenty-two years, only two votes were cast against him.

Annual Proclamation of the President Setting Forth Thursday, Nov. 29th, as a Day of National Thanksgiving. It has pleased Almighty (Jod to bring our nation in eafety and honor through another year. The works of religion and charity have everywhere been manifest. Our country, through all its extent, has been blessed with abunil tnt harvests. Labor and the great industries of the people have prospered beyond all precedent. Our commerce has spread over the world. Our power and influence in the cause of enlightenment have extended over distant countries and lands. The lives of our official representatives and many of our people in China have been marvelously preserved. We have been generally exempt from pestilence and other great calamities; and even the tragic visitation which overwhelmed the city of Galveston made evident the sentiments of sym pathy and Christian charity by virtue of which we are one united people. Now, therefore, I, V ulianiMcKinley, President of the United States, do here by appoint and set apart Thursday, the 29th of November next, to be observed by all the people of the United States at home, or abroad, as a day or Thanksgiving and praise to Him who holds the nations 111 the hollow of His hand. I recommend that they gather in their several places of wor ship and devoutly give Him thanks for the prosperity wherewith He has endowed us, for seed time and harvest; for the valor, devotion and humanity of our armies and nayies, and for all His benefits to us as individuals and as .a nation; and that they humbly pray for the continuance of His divine favor, for concord and amitv with other nations, and for righteous ness and peace in all our ways. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be atlixed. Done at the city of Washington, this TJia day 01 uctober, in ttie year of our Lord one thousand nine bun dred, and of the Independence of the Lnited States the 12oth. (Signed) WILLIAM M K1NLEY.

Time to Shelve Bryan Fats Clods Should be Repudiated for the Good of (the Party William C. Whitney Discusses Re-Organization in New York Journal Elliott Danforth Says Money Plank Drove Away Votes of Conservative Citizens. New York, Nov. 8. William C. Whitney, in the Journal today, talks about ve-organizati jn of the Demo cratic party as follows: "lour .telegram asking me what 1 think proper to be done for the re construction of the party, and what basis there is for the coming together of the factions, is at hand. There are no factions, except those that are made by separations arising from dif ference in principle. You, yourself. before the nomination argued against both the issues that Mr. Bryan forced upon the party. "Sixteen to one you repudiated as already condemned bv the American people, but Mr. Bryan, catering to the false sentiment in one certain locality, forced it on the party. It would be questioning his intelligence to credit him with believing in it. "Expansion, as exploited by Mr. Bryan and inserted in the platform, you, Mr. Hearst, argued against be fore the nomination. "It is my opinion that the Demo cratic pirty has had an old man of the seas on its hands. J he judgment of the American people has twice as serted itself on the question more emphatically than ever before in our history. " henever the Democracy of the nation surrenders to a man who twice loses New York, New Jersey, Con necticut and Indiana, our old battle grounds, by majorities unprecedented in the history of our country, it is evident that vigorous measures in the way of repudiating false gods and false principles are required. "It is not a matter of the coming together of factions; it is a matter of adopting principles that are for the good of the country that represent the old Democracy." The Duty of Beinjr Cheerful. We speak much of the duty of making others happy. No day should pass, we say, on wnicn we uo not put. a little cheer into some heart, make the path a little smoother for some one's tired feet, or help one robiu into its nest again. But we are not so accustomed to think of the duty of being happy ourselves. Yet the one duty is taught in the Bible as clearly as the other. Jesus said His disciples should have tribulation in the world. But He said in the same sentence: I3e of good cheer.1" That is the problem which is set before us as Christians. We are to live cheerful. The fact is, however, that not all Christians are cheerful Christians at all times. Some are scarcely ever cheerful are habitually uncheerful. Others are cheerful only at times, when the sun shines and all things .1 mm. a ti. ; go wen witn mem. iue uum is, there are in the ordinary life a thous and pleasant things to one which is unpleasant. It is a shame, therefore, to let the one roughness or pain spoil for us all the gladness of a thousand food things, the one discordant note mar for us all the music of the grand ym phony. WHAT BEAT BRYAN. He Might Have Been Elected Had Not Democrats Been Afraid to Trust Him. New York, Nov, 7. Col. William J. Bryan, it was made known today. believes in his heart that he would have been elected had the Democratic party stood solidly behind him. horn the "moment of his nomination at Kanas City it had been reported to him that anywhere from 10 to 3) per cent, of Democrat. in a great many communities would not vote for him for the reason they did not believe in the platform enunciated in Chicago in lX'.h. and re-affirmed at Kansas City in Julv. Neither did thee Demo crats believe in the bold utterances of Mr. Brvan, and they would have nothing to do with lii explanation of the issues of the eaoipaign. They would rather go over in a body to McKinley, they said, and lake their chances than lift their hands to elect Brvan and put him at th" head of the o-overnment, with the possibility that he would select all sorts f.f irrespon sible persons as members of hi cabi net. The fnet that thousands upon thu- !s cut Brvan on election day s.m uas cei- aroused an intemperate spirit 111 tain quarters. Col. Bryan's friends have been heard repeatedly to fay within the last twenty four hours that they understood fully the situa tion and" that they were prepared to get even in 1904, and in fact, they de clared that they would not forget the treatment accorded to Bryan in 195 and 1900 for many years to come. A Democrat, very clo--e to Col. Bryan, said: We understand the situation fully and we know all about the conduct of certain Democrats. We know that we have been fooled aud tricked by the attitude of certain (iold Democratic leaders. But we want to say that as long as Col. Bryan is alive this will romomhurpd" and that no Demo cratic candidate for President will be elected." Notwithstanding the ideas of the Bryanites, many able Democrats are to set to work to reorganize the party, so that by 1904 a moderate platform on all questions will dc aaopieu u the Democratic National convention, and' this will be done in the hope of recalling recalcitrant Democrats. No, Maade. dear, just because a man suffers from boils we shouldn't .call him a lobster. DELAWARE nEPIBLICAW. Tfce Legislature May TS'ott Elect Twt Republics Senators. Wilmington, Nov. 8. The Republi cans not only carried the state for Mc Kinley and Hunn for governor, out al so secured the legislature in both branches. This means the election of two Republican United States senators.

Ross. Republican, against Francis J. McNulty, Democrat, for senator. The Republicans elected two sena tors and nine of the 15 representatives in Newcastle county. In Kent county tho Democrats elected two senators, and each party elected five of the ten representatives. In Sussex county the Democrats elected one senator and the Republicans the other. The Democrats elected five and the Republicans five of the ten representatives. Tho ccnaral assembly is Republican, but it was of the same complexion in 1S!)5 an 1 again in 1899, and both times senatorial deadlocks continued to the end.

The county boards canvassed the returns in every county in the state yesterday, and 50 counties out of Hi) from which official returns have been received did not materiaiy change the majorities stated.
