-; (y a. mucic.s.)
V The candidates beforo the demo
cratic county primary, to bo held
July 21, appeared yesterday at Uoles
ville, 17 miles southeast of. here.
The dispensary in Haleigh was given
unusual prominence in the debate.
Mr. W. N. Jones appeared as advo
cate for the present board of county
'commissioners, since County Attor
ney II. IS. Norris was detained in Ra
leigh by legal business. Mr. Jones
extolod the accomplishments of the
dispensary for good roads and
schools and this brought Kev. S. J.
Iietts to the platform, .-.when - tlu
speaking was over, with a vehement
denunciation of the dispensary and
a fervent eulogy of Mr. V. C. Doug
lass as the great champion of tem
perance. The Old Stage Point.
KolesviMe is one of the oldest set
tlements in Wake county. The little
village is beautifully situated upon
a knoll, with undulating valleys
stretching to the naighboring hills
on 'cither side. Hero, where the
public roads fork, in the olden days
the stage between Loulsbu'rg and Ra
leigh would draw up with a flourish
of trumpets and after ,-a change of
horses resume the journey. The vil
lage ha3 preserved its picturesque
appearance.
Crowd Wants a Change.
About 200 people, most of them
citizens of Holesvillo precinct, as
sembled in the grove to hear the
candidates. On two questions the
attitude of these sturdy men was
perfectly apparent. No one can
'truthfully contradict the statement
that the Itolesvillo crowd was nl
niOBtunaiiimously in favor of a new
hoard of county commissioners and
they were practically a unit for John
C. Drewry for senator.
A year since two' well known citi
zens of the precinct, Stanley Jones
and ir. K. Duke, were tried for fail
ure to work the roads under the new
road law. County Attorney Norris
prosecuted them and when a jury in
Magistrate Joe Haywood's court ac
quitted the men such a crowd sur
rounded tho county attorney in
Mitchell's store that the floor fell in.
That trial hud its effect. County At
torney Norris did not appear upon
the scene 'yesterday.' -...When Mr. W.
N. Jones, with feeling and eloquence,
pleaded for tho present commission
ers ho was heard throughout his re
marks with ominous silence. On the
other hand the onslaught of Mr. W,
C. Brewer, who waded into the
hoard with gloves off, was received
with frequent applause. Mr. John
C. Drewry, when he arose to speak,
was applauded. Mr. Percy J. Olive
mounted the stand amid dead silence
except that one man cried "Go it
Olive." Investigation disclosed that
this.ono Olive supporter did not live
in Rolesvillo precinct, but resided
near Mitchell's mill.
The Candidates Announced.
Mr. James Mitchell presided at
the speaking. Clerk of the Court
Russ and County Treasurer William
son were detained at their offices and
sent regrets. " The four candidates
for sheriff, namely, Sheriff J. H.
Sears, H. D. Rand St. Mary's, J.
H. Rohbins of Raleigh, and F. H.
Whltaker of St. Mary's, briefly an
nounced their candidacy. Maj. J. J.
Bernard, register of deeds, did like
wise. Then Mr. Bart. M. Gatling made
his vigorous speech defending' the
Oreen board of county commission
ers and attacking the' stewardship of'
tho present board. He charged that
Mr. Norris while senator had passed
the bill chartering the Raleigh and
Pamlico' Sound Railroad and had
saddled upon the county, not on the
company, the expenses ($1,300) ..of
advertising the railroad bond elec
tions. : V.
Bad Time to Swap.
Mr. W. N. Jones of the Raleigh
bar spoke for the present board. He
devoted his time largely to explaln-
mpt to say that
the Green board had received just
treatment at the hands of the pub
lic, but he would say that tho Green
board 1iad been passed upon and was
not now before the people.
Dispensary Money a Rlesslng.
The question is simply will you
people turn out the present board?
You will never get good roads or
make real progress by constantly
changing boards. All this talk of
abolishing personal servica on the
roads arises from the fact that a big
share of the dispensary profits now
go to the road fund.
"It was a groat day when the peo
ple of Raleigh established a dispen
sary and took $60,000 a year, which
was being thrown away, and put it
into funds for improving tho roads
and the schools; I say that was a
great day for the people," asserted
Mr. Jones.
"Then hadn't we better establish
several moro dispensaries in the
county?" inquired Mr. A. B. Marsh-burn.
. "No; let's get along with one and
after while wo will wipe that out,"
replied Mr. Jones..
"Thank heaven for that," exclaim
ed Rev. S. J. Betts from his scat in
a nearby buggy.
"But don't let's lot the bar-room
folks tell when to do it," Mr. Jones
ndd.nl..
"And don't let us tell them when

BLOWN TO PIECE
(By the Associated Press.) ;
Washington, July 13. An Investi
gation is to be made by the interstate
commerce commission by authority
of the .United States senate of the
elevator, grain buying and forward
ing business of the country, to de
termine to what extent special favors
have been granted to them by rail
road companies; the influence which
tho alleged monopolizing of this
branch of business has had upon the
market; tho injury it has worked to
grain producers; the extent to which
railroads, their officers, directors,-
stockholders and employes own or
control "tho grain buying and grain
forwarding companies; and the man
nor in which such holdings, if any,
were secured.
A few days prior to the adjourn
ment of congress the senate adopted
a resolution directing the iuterstatoj
commerce commission to make a
thorough inquiry alng the lines in
dicated. In the judgment of the
commission this Investigation in
volves securing immediately items of
information from common carriers
engaged in the transportation of
grain as interstato commerce. In
pursuance of the resolution, there
fore, the interstate commerce com
mission has sent a circular letter to
every railroad corporation in the
United States requesting its respon
sible officials to furnish to the com
mission as soon as practicable infor
mation which will enable it to report
to congress next December.
It is expscted by the commission
that it will require three or four
months to obtain the Information
asked for In its circular letter, but
no special difficulty is anticipated
ultimately in obtaining it. The in
vestigation instituted by tho com
msslon will bo thorough and sweep
ing and tho commission expects to
be able, at tho beginning of the next1
session of congress to lay before the;
senate such information as may be
of value to it in the formulation of

' New York, July 13. Mrs.. Harry
Thaw, after her visit to. her- husband
today, had great dillieulty In making
her way from the doorway of the
Tombs prison to hi r cab.: There was
a. large crowd at the doorway waiting
of hastening the parliamentary pro
cedure, and War Minister Etlnne Im
mediately presented two government
bills, one raising Captain Dreyfus to
the rank of major of artillery, and the
other promoting Colonel Plcquart to
that of brigadier general. M. Etienne
asked for speedy action, adding that it
was the government's intention to In
scribe, Dreyfus' name on the list of
candidates for tho cross of the legion
of honor. This announcement brought
out a storm of applause. The bills were
referred to the army committee, which
at once went into session, approved
them and drafted strong, favorable re
ports. -
Later, amid great excitement, the
chamber considered the bill reinstating
Dreyfus and passed it by a vote of
473 to 42.
M. Messiny, radical socialist, read
tho report amidst applause.
There weie two violent incidents as
the voting began. Mr. Durre shouted
ti taunt directed at the socialists,
Whereupon M. Lasies, anti-semite,
lushed at his colleague and attempted
to strike him, but several deputies in
tervened. At the same time M. Flandin, repub
lican, and Ghesquiere were separated
after efforts to exchange blows.
A tumultuous demonstration greeted
the announcement of the vote.
President Brisson, In announcing the
vote, said: i. 4
"It is with pride that I register this
vote, consecrating the triumph of vir
tue." The text of the law restoring Drey
fus to the army is as follows:
"Captain of Artillery Alfred Dreyfus,
according to the law of 1880, amended
in lSliu, is hereby promoted to be major,
taking that rank on the day of the
promulgation of the present law."
A scene of similar disorder marked
the reading of the report reinstating:
Colonel Picquart. The report severely
arraigned the officers who were he
sponsible for his condemnation, char
acterizing their acts as wicked vll
lianies. M. Genys Cochin, conservative, pro
