Raleigh, Oct 30. It Is said by the
ertton growers that east of Goldsboro
. thore lg only about half a crop, but
that west of that place the crop Is
about 25 per cent off. 1 One farmer
said that In his experience the crop
Tvag 50 per cent off on poor lands and
25 per cent off on good lands.
Your correspondent had an' Inter
view today "with Senator Simmons,
v who was at Democratic headquarters
on his way to Lumberton. He makes
his final speech at Klnston Monday
evening;. He says things look just as
good to him as he could expect and
added that they never looked .as good
as he' wanted them to look even when '
the majority ran up to 50,000. He
sys; "We" will have ithe old-time
Democratic majorities all over the
state. In counties, in districts and th
state ticket too, and we are not going
to lose -any congressman either. The
Republicans are spending lots of mo
ney. The Democrat? have made a
very thorough canvass and have had
good audiences. I have been- to the
8th and 10th districts for a week and
have never known the Democrats as
united or more determined and I can
say that the' 'result of tnelr work ta
those districts will be very gratifying
As for myself Ihad a good audience
and genuine Enthusiasm and it waa
Inspiring."' -
Tho Republicans have had money
from their national "committee beyonQ
question, and whenever they do this
- they have t0 make a demonstration
to earn their, keep. , Postmasters and
revenue officers have been and are
running all over the state. The Re
publicans are not,, getting crowds
either. Their fight is more secretive
this time than ever before, and their
.manipulation ' Is worse than It wa
.under the Butler-Russell regime. I
'.honestly believe they have desended
to a lower plane than during that
regime. The legislature will be com.
iKsed substantially as the last one and
the Republicans will carry no more
counties than they did Id- 1906. i
think the votes'this year will be very
much fuller than our people gener
ally believe. Outside of the Interest
around In state matters, the antici
pation of Bryan's election will bring
out votes. Even where there le ap
parent lukewarmness, and where
there has been an idea that a lot of
our people would not turn out and
vote it will be found that they will
turn out I want to say that the
stand and the enthusiasm with which
the Charlotte Observer has supported
Mr. Bryan and the whole ticket ha
(nfuaed new life Into the party into
the western part of the state, and
I want to especially compliment that
great paper for what It has done this
year. I do not think that the Demo
crats have been more thoroughly uni
ted than they are this year. The lit
tie factional troubles Of the past have
disappeared.

POLHIGAL DEBATE
Candidates for Congress Express
Their Opinions ef the Campaign.
A large number of citizens sympa
thizers with both the Republican and
Democratic ticket gathered at ' the
court house last night to hear the
debate "between Hon. Charles R. Tho
Democratlc and Republican candidates
for congress respectively. Mr. Step
hen Lane 'presided ; '"
' Mr. Hill was introduced by Mr. Ro
bert Hancock wh0 said that he was
nominated because he was the best
of many who would have made good
candidates. !
Following is the - synopsis of jj.
Hill's remarks""'- . .--;
All voting citizens were his friends
because he knew he did not have
any enemies in the third district, ex
cept political enemies.
Hag had the nomination twice In
the district once for State Senate and
second for the congress, by- acclama
tion did not ask 'or any nomination.
Soon received challenge from, op
ponent was advised not to accept by
friends as he was young in the cause
but yet he felt that he was on the
right side and thereby accepted and
was here tonight to show the people
that he was here to champion the
rights of his party.
' Democrats are going back to 1868
and resurrecting the skeletons of the
civil war. He said his j people all
fought in the war, and did not think
it fair to him to bring up those old
fossils of those times to comfute him.
They say you talk nicely about the
confederate soldiers, but what have
your party done for the confederate
soldiers'. - The confederate soldiers
have always voted against us. Look
here at the Charlotte convention;
here were two confederate soldiers
isklng for office, Ashley Horne and a
gentleman from Salisbury, and did
they get It?
The' panic, Mr. Thomas charges It
to the Republican party but I deny
It. Senator Bailey of Texas said it
was due to over loans of the Bank of
New York. John Sharpe Williams In
bis speech at New Born said the ad
ministration had nothing to do with
the panic.
A Republican panic Is better than aa
ordinary Democratic administration,
If .wo compare the times .with 1892. to
the present panic. Republicans hold
out the 'postals savings bank system
in lieu of the bank guarantee, as a'
safer and more sensible financial
measure.
Mr. Thomas Speaks Greeted With
Great Applause.
He thanked the audience for thla
demonstration. I find in my canvass
that the people are yet loyal to me
and I expect to rematnn loyal to them.
Here in New Bern where I have lived
nearly all my life I find them espec
ially loyal.
The Republicans in their National
platform condemn all the constitu
tional amendment; the election law
of the aouth and the Jim Crow car
law.
Who raked up the past days oi
1868-69? It was Montgomery, in the
presence of Elwood Cox and Tom Set
tle, recently in Raleigh.
The panacea, the Republicans offer
is a currency law and there la not
enough money In all the national
banks of North Carolina to form such
a currency association as is suggest
ed by this law which la condemned
by all bankers.
Mr. Roosevelt was the first to en
dorse takingthe tariff off from lum
ber. Now as the forests of the north
are exhausted he wants lumber on
the free list
The Postal savings bank law would
affect the destruction of the national
banks and the small state banka.
: Mr. Taft never held any office In
the gift of the people. Bryan has
been nominated three times and will
be elected next Tuesday,
Panic and a divided Republican par
ty and his strength with the muses
will elect him.
In his rejolner Mr. Thomas quoted
from Mr. Aiken of South Carolina.
In regard to the effect of his Inter
state llquor bill, saying that It was
nothing new he had not denied the
Introduction as suggested In Mr. Han
cock's letter. It was a bill, no pro
hibitionist objected to. The publics'

him -with antl-prohlbltlonlsU. Mr.
Aiken Introduced a similar bill and
Democrats and Republicans Introduo -
