A TARHEBL TRIUMPH.

Carolina BY Big Majority.

The Democrats VIII Garry North
Carolina BY Big Majority.
WILMINGTON, N. O., Nov. THE cam
paign has closed in this state with the demo-
orass enthusiastic and confident There
seems to be no doubs whatever that the
democrats will carry the state for both the
national and state tickets by good
round majorities. OF the nine congress-
men there is doubt as TO one or two districts.
There are eight democats and one repub-
Hcan in the present congress. Tomorrow
the democrats may lose two or they may
gain one, which would give them solid
delegation. The democratic estimate claims
all the way from 10000 TO $4,000 majority
for the state and presidential tickets.
THE DEMOCRATS CONFIDENT.
RALEIGH, N. c., Nov. 7.-The eve of
the election finds everything quiet In North
Carolina. The sensational features Of the
closing days were the publicity given the
oath OF the Gideon band, a secret orReniza~
tion whose chief in North Carolina is s. Otho
Wilson, chairman of the Peoples party, and
the arrest Of the state registrar by Chief
Supervisor Shaffer, followed by the arrest
of Shaffer in turn, which seem to have
checked further proceedings under the
federal process. There is rain Tonight with
prospect Of bad weather tomorrow.
In an interview tonight Chairman Sim
mona of the democratic committee claimed
the state by $4,000; expected the election Of
seven congressman out OF nine, with hopes
OF all. and claimed the legislature.
Chairman Eaves declined to express him
SELF saying tomorrow would tell its own
tale. He appeared despondent. Two days
since he claimed the state by 1900 ma
jority.
There is chance for the election OF Set
tie, Clarke. Wilcox and Pritchard, repub-
licans to congress. 1t Is understood that
Weaver will poll 80, 900 votes and that they
will elect Calling in the First, Koonce in the
Third and Stroud in the Fourth congress
sional districts. They hope, in connection
with the republicans, to control the legis-
lature

Cleveland Recognized as Represent
ing a More Liberal Tariff Policy.
LONDON, Nov. 7.-Most Of the morning
papers contain long reviews Of the American
political situation. the Standard says
Great Britain can look with complete indif-
ference upon the success OF either party.
There is no doubt, it adds, that Mr.. Cleve-
land exhibits leaning toward liberal CONS
mercial policy, but dominent influences
would prove too strong If be desired, which
we do not fancy he does, to take decided
step In the direction of free trade.
The Daily NetDs says the issue is between
out and out protection and policy leaning
toward free trade. The American people
will now vote al men knowing the McKin-
ley bill by its fruits and enlightened by the
frightful riots at Homestead and elsewhere
in the United States.
The Telegraph declares that the terrible
exigencies OF party make both sides equally
unfriendly TO Great Britain. The Irish
vote is strong and must be propitiated.
