EMOGRATS SURE
OF A HEM
MAJORITY
(BY MAX ABERNETHY)
Raleigh' Nov. 2. While no political
sagacity is necessary to predict that
today the Democratic party in the
state will be victorious a review of
tho campaign from an indepedent
standpoint may show why the Re
publicans will lose.
Unlike the national campaign in
some scc'ions of the country the
Democrats in North Carolina have
managed to make the leacue of
nations the outstanding issue beforp
the voters. This fact coupled with tha
well known prejudice of the masses
of Tar Heel Democrats acainst the
Republican party which dates back
over a period of years to tho Russell
administration leaves no doubt in the
mind of the 'average North Carolin
ian that today's election viil not un
cover anythinp- unusual. The state
having gone Democratic for over 20
years it would be foolish to predict
a Republican victory today because
the facts do not justify it.
Claims made by the Democratic
leaders outweigh those from the op
position camp because past political
events are decidedly cne-sided. Back
of the Democratic claims there is a
iong list of Victories, and North
Carolina is a part of the "solid
south."
Under the leadership of John J.
rarkcr as nominee for governor the
Republicans have conducted a radi
cally different campaign and with
much better effect than at any time
in the state's history. This is admit
ted by Democrats and Republicans.
His declaration when accepting the
nomination at the Greensboro con
vention that he had no desire to re
vive the race question in North
Carolina politics undoubtedly stren
thencd his party.
There has been, however, no indi
cation at any stage of the campaign
that a break was imminent in the
Democratic ranks. . Mr. Parker's
speech making tour has revived in
terest in the Republican strongholds
an has also had the effect of cement
ing virtually all factions of the mi
nority party. Bat even if he has done
this the Republicans still face defeat
because Democracy united cannot be
nterpreted otherwise. There ccrtaiRf
lv is nothing on the surface to indi
cate that there is a rift in the Demo
cratic cloud.
Where the Republicans blundered
in the state, admitting: that they had
an opportunity of reducing the Dem
ocratic majority, was in attacking
revaluation after the measure was
passed by both houses of the general
assembly without a dissenting vot-
from Republicans or Democrats. It
has been known that some af the
leading Republicans obiected to their
candidate making his campaign
against revaluation because they
favored the law. For a time it was
feared that the new taxation sysfcm
was going to cost the party votes
particularly among the farmers. This
was early in the year but at the
special session of the legislature the
objectionable features were elimina
ted. . ,
This having been done the Re
publicans found themselves at sea
and were forced to change their tac
tics somewhat, substituting the
oiriginal opposition charge to "The
plan is all right but the law is be
ing administered unwisely." That the
act is not perfect is freely admitted
but there is not argument enough to
convince the voter that the system
of listing property at its true value
is not a forward step. -
With the league of nations held out
tc them as the only possible means
of nreventing future wars, the cove
nant having been accepted by 40 free
nations of the earth and only Tur
key. Kussia ana uermany oi ine Dig
countries on the outside, the women
of North Carolina are anxious to go
in. Revaluation also appeals to them
because they think it is "honest, just
and fair." It is not believed that re
valuation will lise any woman's vote
for the Democrats: it may gain
some.
Although the Republicans believe
that they will win three western dis
tricts, the seventh, ninth and tenth,
there is olny one that has given the
Democrats worry. That is the tenth,
and thev are predicting that the wo
men's vote will save it for the
Democi-atic nominee. Democratic
strength in the legislature . will not
be materially changed, the Demo
crats think and while they admit tht v
may lose some counties they claim
victory in others which will not re
duce their representation.

Dayton, Ohio, Nov. 1. Governor
Cox, the Democratic presidential
candidate, was an early voter today,
but on arriving at . the polls found
more than 200 of his neighbors had
cast their ballots ahead ot him.
Accompanied by Mrs Cox, the gov
ernor reached the poling place at 10
o clock, but the line of waiting vol
ers delayed the deposit of their bal
lets to 10:17.
The vote of Mrs. Cox was not her
first, she having lived in Illinois and
voted at a state election a' few years
ago. v
In the voting booth she showed her
knowledge of the old Australian, bal
lot, marking up four different forms
composing it and beating her hus
band by 30 seconds.
This afternoon the governor went
to his fathers near Jacksonburg, the
place of his birth, planning to return
here early in the evening to receive
the election returns.
As a parting shot to his campaign,
th governor said :
"I am confident that the cause for
which I have stopd during the entire
campaign will be victorious today.
The campaign has heen based en
tirely on a great moral issue and in
all the history of the world where a
great moral issue has beenp resent

It will not fail today."

home at a crossroads store to cast
his ballot. Mrs. Cox also expected
to vote with him.
The last words cf the Democratic

last night at Toledo were:
"Peace on earth; good wil ltowards

These words sung by the angels of

'THE CITY BEAUTIFUL"
Springfield Republican.
Savannah is taking up afresh the
"city beautiful" plans which, as ir
many other places, were interfered
vMth by the war, and means to take
advantage of its climate by making
all the parks, roadsides and private
grounds bloom with roses. Just
no it finds difficulty, like a good
many other cities, ni keeping tho
streets and public squares , neat, the
working force at the disposal of the
park commission having besn re
duced nearly a quarter because of en
forced economy and the labor short
age.
The civic bureau of the city night
ly concludes that the only remedy
is to be touna in a iresn campaign
for educating the public.' Consider
able progress had been anade m this
direction nn many American cities
when the .great upheaval diverted at
tention to other things: it is time to
begin reminding people that their co
operation is needed in keeping the
home tovn neat and attractive.
To dispose decently of a discard
ed newspaper or paper wrapping is
a small matter which involves no
trouble of consequence; if everybody
does it the most serious part of the
problem is solved If, on the contrary
everybod is careless the public au
thorities are wholly unable to cope
with the endless flood of refuse which
soon makes the most attractive spot
look unkempt and disreputable. To
be thoughtful in such small things
