Your oor reapondent today found that sltrUng :iilzen and patriot, ex-Governor CbM. 3. Ay cock sitting under the grateful ihade otthe trees in the prettyiittle ark in frant of the Union Passenger Station here. The governor had obme jp from his home in Goldsboro on an iarly morning train to see Governor 3lenn 'about some matters,, which he mid was not of public moment and as returning on the noon train.. So waa reating there under the shel- ering shade and reading one of the ant magazines. No man ia better posted than he about North Carolina politics and we chatted about this sub It ct, the conversation taking quite a wide range. Ex-Governor Aycock said hat he felt very certain Mr. Bryan .v ou Id get a larger North Carolina vote than ever before. He said the people idmired him because he was a stick 3r and not a quitter; waa not soured or warped by defeats, but was ever full of spirit and pluck. He contrast d him sharply, as a man standing 'or hlihself, with Taft, his Republican opponent, who is the umbra of shadow- f President Roosevelt., American teople admins. Governor Aycock went n to say, the substance, but not the shadow. In the old days the lllus- rious Romans had imitators and to htse wss given the name umbra or ihadow. Things went so far In those Jecadent days that the shadow hlmaelt wmetlmes had a shadow also, truly :he shadow of shade, and so perhaps' Mr. Taft may have some imitator, in he third degree. Governor Aycock tald he felt much more than hopeful for success for Mr. Bryan this time ind he ridiculed the statement to which certain Republicans are giving urrency in Raleigh and perhapa else where in the State to effect that 8 lumber of ' Democrats will vote tor raft Speaking ot his own county ot ayne, Mr. Aycock said be did not mow a Democrat there who would take such a step as this, nor did he Mlieve there were more than a hand ful anywhere. He is well aware of the imount of exaggeration the Republi cans circulate. . . One ot the claims of the Republicans this year Is that while the Demo- rats aus carrying the State, yet their majority will be cut dowa tremendous ly. Mr. Aycock says that four years igo the Democratic majority was 49,- KM). and that be does not look for It to tall below 40.0UQ this year, ana It may be aa much aa It was at the aat election. . The Republicans have tot yet agreed upon the man they will put np at the head of their ticket, but Cyrus Thompson, certainly on of ihelr beat speakers, is being very free ly talked about in thls'i connection. fhe odds are that there will be no lolnt debate. Whenever .there has been one In past years the Demoerata nave been the gainers by It There have been three anoh joint dleeueelons that between Vance and Settle; that jetween Jarvls and Buxton, la wbioh however but tew apeecbes were made iy the two together and that betweea Scales and York. M. Aycock regard Mr. Kltchtn, th Democratle nominee for governor aa superior in debate tc iny man the "Republicans can possibly rodure In North Carolina, and is sure he win give a good account of blm- elt in the campaign. Then as. to the Congressional, dele atlon Mr. Aycock sees no resson tor be slightest belief that there' will not he again a . full Democratic delega 'ion in this State. He has been up In the 8th District and finds Congress man Hackett stronger than ever an regards that district as entirely safe there is also no question as to the Tenth, where Congresaman Crawford ias things bis own way.
