DEMOCflATS AT UE WOODIin.SON SENATOR SIMMONS POINTS DEM OCRATIC STATE CONVENTION TO MATCHLESS RECORD OF NAftONAL PARTY. SIMMONS, OVERMAN, CRAIG, AND CARR ARE DELEGATES Youth, Vigor and Enthusiasm in Great Gathering.—Delegates and Electors Are Elected and State Platform Is Adopted. Raleigh.—Youth, vigor and enthusi asm stood out prominently in the State Democratic Convention which met here, for it was essentially a con vention of young men although it was seasoned with a springling of the vet erans who have fought the battles of Democracy. It was good to look upon this body of youthful militant Democracy rep resenting the best manhood and the best interests of North Carolina. The magnificent personnel must have im pressed itself upon all. It was live, enthusiastic and harmonious. It rep resented ideals. That It was here for continuing the Commonwealth's gov ernment on its present high plane in stead of personal aggrandizement or selfish aims was apparent. The spirit of optimism radiated throughout the immense auditorium. Endorsement of the Administration of President Wilson, the preparedness program, proposed National rural credits legislation and the declaration that more important National legis lation had taken place in the last three years than in any decade of American history were the outstand ing features of the platform adopted here by the State Democratic Conven tion. The mention of President Wilson's name always brought applause show ing the keen hold that the chief ex ecutive of the nation has upon the hearts and minds of the people of North Carolina. Because the new primary law took from the convention the privilege of nominating candidates for state offi ces the delegates had before them only the adoption of a platform, the election of delegates*at-large to the National Convention, nomination of presidential electors and considera tion of a successor to Secretary Dan iels as National Committeeman. State officers will be nominated in a pri mary to be held on June 3 and in the primary the electorate also will ex press its preference for a presidential candidate. Senators Simmons and Overman, Governor Craig and Gen. Julian S. Carr of Durham, were elected dele- gates-at-large to the National 0[on- vention by acclamation and Camdron Morrison of Charlotte and J. O. Carr of Wilmington, were nominated as presidential electors-at-large. Dele gates to the National Convention from the 10 Congressional districts were elected and presidential electors nomi nated at district conventions held earl ier in the day. Several of the district conventions departing from the usual custom of electiong two delegates and two alter nates elected four delegates, each with half a vote, and dispensed with alternates. A. W. McLean of Lumberton, was elected National Committeeman, the first time in the history of the party in his state, that a convention had so acted. Secretary Daniels after serv ing 20 years as committeeman, de clined to seek re-election. As regards state affairs, the platform declared that so long as the Demo cratic party remained in control the suffrage amendment to the constitu tion would be maintained, assuring a stat6 government “conducted by j white men.” A continued policy of economy in handling the financial af- ^ f HV YOU ARE NERVOUS The nervous system is the alarm system r f tlie human fcody. in perfect health we hardly realize that we have a network of nerves, but when health is ebbing, when strength is declin ing, the same nen -- - rystem gives the alarm in headachc. redness, dreamful sle»-p, irritability a*. i unless corrected, le: .ds straight to a breakdown. To correct nervousness, Scott’s Emul sion is exactly what you should take; its rich nutriment gets into the blood and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while the whole system responds to its refresh ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol. Scott & Bowne, Bloomfield, N. J. faTra of the state was pledgedl ani the widest publicity as regards state and county financial transactions and fre quent audits were urged. The plat form also pledged the party to con servation of the public health, en couragement of highway construction, development of rural ccmmunities and recomthend^d the construction of state warehouses for the storage of farm products. Senator Simmons, temporary chair man of the convention in the keynote address declared the Democratic par ty in seeking the re-election of the Administration was making the cam paign solely on the record of the par ty. Since the election of President Wilson, he said, the party had done nothing It was ashamed of and it had no apologies to offer. His address dealt entirely with the history of Democracy In North Carolina and the achievements of the Wilson Adminis- Iratlon. By vote of the convention a com mittee waited on Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels and Governor Locke Craig with an invitation to de liver addresses. Secretary Daniels was the first to appear on the plat form. He was given a rousing ovation while the convention arose to its feet The work of the Administration was discussed in an Impromptu ad dress by Secretary Daniels. He stressed the fact that the United States was at peace and 4fold of some of the plans for preparedness against war. As regards preparedness, he said the War and Navy Departments had profited by the experiences of European Governments since the war ^egan and already had taken steps to put into practice plans which the belligerents did not cpnsider until af ter the conflict wak a year old. In a brief address. Governor Craig declared that after due consideration he had concluded Col. Theodore Roosevelt would secure the Republi can nomination for the presidency and that the election in November would be a declaration for or against war. That the United States now was at peace, was due to Woodrow Wilson, he ’said, and his re-election was neces sary. ^ The election of any candidate other than Mr. Wilson would mean the participation of the country in the general conflict, he asserted. The convention was called to or der at 12:15 by Chairman Warren. Dr. J. E. Underwood, presiding elder of the Raleigh district, led in prayer. No time was lost in preliminaries. Mayor Johnson made a brief address of welcome, followed by a short speech by Chairman Warren, in which he drew a picture of the ideals of Democracy and compared it with that of Republicanism, and reviewed party history for the past 20 years, paying high tribute to Senator Sim mons, whom he introduced as tempor ary chairman. Senator Simmons was received with much enthusiasm. Following the speech of Senator Simmons the temporary organization was made permanent on motion of W E. Brock, of Anson, and A. J. Maxwell, Stacy Wade and K. B. Council were made secretaries. Senator Simmons turned over the gavel to Judge J. D. Murphy of Bun combe, who presided during the re mainder of the session. The election of delegates to the St. Louis convention occupied but a few moments. Judge Biggs of Wake, placed in nomination Senator Sim mons, Senator Overman, Governor Craig and Gen. Julian S. Carr. They were nominated by acclamation. Mr. Brock put In nomination the fol lowing for alternates to the national convention: E. L. Travis, J. C. Biggs, Thomas D. Warren and J. D. Murphy. Mr. Cameron Morrison, of Charlotte, arose at this point and said that he wanted to see Wade Harris, one of the distinguished editors of the State in cluded among the alternates. Both Chairman Murphy and Mr. E L. Travis said it would give them great pleasure to withdraw in order to allow Mr. Harris to become one of the delegates. The following being nominated sing ly were elected; Wade Harris of Char lotte, J. Crawford B!ggs of Raleigh, J. D. Murphy of Asheville, T. D. Warren of New Bern. District delegates and electors hav ing been elected at the morning dis trict meetings, were announced as follows: First district—Col. W. G. Lamb, of Martin; A. T. Baker, of Chowan; P. G. James, of Pitt, and fi. F. Aydlett of Pasquotank. Elector, H. C. Car ter, of Beaufort- Second district—W. O. Howard, of Edgecombe; H. G. C|>nnor, Jr., of Wilson; J. A.

A case Hke this right her9 at home U the strongest kind of evidence. This Qurden Street woman tells about he experience for the benefit of Marion people; read what she says. The facta can be easily proven. Mrs. C. A. Dale, Garden St., Marion, says: “My system was full of uric acid and my feet and hands swelled to twice normal size. The skin was drawn as tight as a drum and was purple. I was helpleiM for two months and the paing in my back never let up. At times there was an almost complete retention of the kidney secretions. The doctor didn’t help me and I got Doan’s Kidney Pills at Streetman’s Dmg Store. They cured me.” (Statement given in Feb ruary, 1911 ) Over Three Years Later Mrs, Dalft said: “Except for a little soreness in mv back occasionaUy, I have had no sign of kidney trouble in years, thanks to Doan’s Kidney Pills.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t sim ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Dale has twice publicly recommended. Fos- ter-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N.
