DIFFERENCE AMONG PoLrricAL DocroRs.--
The Raleigh On. C.) Standard states that the
Democracy saved the South in the late Pres.
idential contest, but the Charleston S. c. }
Mercury dissents emphaticallv, and says: =
ssWe are surprised that that journal, in the
ntoxcation of success, should shut its eyes
to the Pyrrhic character OF this victory
one more sach and we are lost. 1t is the
South that has saved the Democratic party,
and not the Democratic part that has thrown
its shield over the South" Latitude appears
TO make considerable difference in the opin-
ions of doctors.

The whole number Of votes cast at this
election was S9,Sl2. The number cast st
the August election was 1850. Increase
over the August vote, 1912. There was
IN average majority for the Republican state
ticket in August Of 1918. There is Re-
publican majority on the Presidential vote Of
1886. Republican gain over Angus: election,
1l3. But these figures do not show the ac-
tHal Republican gain. In August the Fill
noreitss voted our ticket. They cast now
s,444 votes. Allowing that our majority in
August was enhanced BY their vote to the
mount Of 5000, (which 10 probably a safe
calculation,) the Republican gain over the
Aaguss vote in the aggregate amounts to
6,7i3. A result with which we are entirely
satisfied.
Compared with the vote Of 1862. we find
the following fact:
Pisroe's majority in 1852, 1907
Fremons's majority in 1856, 1856
Black Dem. loss in four years, 9,793
This is comparing the vote OF the two high
o., cAni,iatos,--Scost and Pierce, and Ere
m,nt and Buchanan. Comparing the Black
De nocratic votes Of 1852 and 1856 with the
aggregate opposition vote Of the two years,
We obtain the following results:
Pierce, 1862
Scott, 1885
Halo, 1906

s-rTfIE MARKETS..

tmay wellbea matter Of speculation to de-
termine what is hsneef0rth to be the tendency
of the price of the staple products Of our coun-
try. whether up or down. The fact IS patent
that a large amount of grain is still unsold by
the producers, they having held on for even
higher prices than the unprecedented prices of
last fan. We refer to wheat, the export article,
and we have had occasion to do 80 before. Our
country readers in particular will recollect that
last fan. when wheat was worth here 81, 40 to
81 .sOper bushel, We labored to show them that
tkea was the time to sell, and that by holding
on they would witness the reiux tide, with their
product in their own hands. The result has
been as VIC anticipated and instead of breaking
up spectators, as We advised, by selling to them
At the high prices and letting the decline catch
them, largo portion of our farmers yet hold
their wheat, for which they could last fall have
realized SI,75 per bushel. But ct there is no
use in CRYING after split milk is an adagc APP
plicablc here, and tho question now is, what is
noe best d, be dones Should farmers hold their
wheat or sell at present rates? This is the true
question and upon it we submit few plain sug-
eestions We think there is no prospect of
rise in the market, and whys The war, that
great prop and foundation, in imagination partly,
of the late high prices, has passed away and in
its place comes peace with its calm and stagna-
ton Of active excitement across the waters.
The ports Of Europe are again thrown open and
the great grain region of Europe along the south
crn and eastern shores of the Baltic, that region
which has for centuries fed the continent and
supplied England's deficit in home product, is
now once more in the market. Her long locked
Rrainaries are now thrown open to the hungry,
and American -four will now be met at every
European, and even at other ports, by their ac-
eumulated product of two years past This is
not all The immense Importation of foreign
product into the Union this spring, caused by
that wild extravaganza, which too often accom-
panies high prices oven into the home of the
farmer, must have its influence, and when pay
day comes it easy to see what will be the effect
upon the flour product of America.
We may be mistaken in our conclusion, but
we give our reasons, and our readers must judge
and act for themselves. Add to these the fact
that we have so large an amount of cereals
in the country, and our conclusions become
strengthened. We say, then, to our farmers,
think Of these things as we advised last fall,
and then act and let not your products depreci-
ate still more in value ere you sell. The true
interest of our community is to let the farmers
realise the best prices for their products. When
they mako money, the country makes money,
for by them aud through them arc upheld all
the important interests of our community,
whether mechanical, manufacturing, or mercan-
tile.

her. A younger sister, captured at the same
time, died six months ago
