"A PATRIOTIC LETTER.
Mir. deGraffenried Withdraws From the Senatorial Race to Insure
 Democratic Success.

Editor Greensboro Beacon:
 AS is now generally known, there are now before the people of the Thirty second district, as candidates for the senate, two democrats, each claiming to be the nominee of the party. The cause of this situation is too we'll known for me now to refer to it. In fact, 1 think that it is best for the democratic party for me to make no reference to it. Suffice it to say that feel confident of the position as- stunned by my friends that am the regular nominee of the party.
 Since the convention met at Akron the populists have met and nominated Judge James NJ. Hobson for the senate from this district. Fears are entertained that this triangular fight may result in the election of Judge Hobson and in damage to the state and county tickets.
 While am confident that am the regu- lar nominee of the party, we all, without division, know that Judgs James M. Hob son Is not a democrat, Gnd that if he is elected he will net-act with the democrats.
 asked Dr. Browder to meet me on the stump, there to discuss with me the merits of our respective claims to the nomination 1; this he declined to do. 1 also wrote him an open letter, suggesting that the entire matter be referred to the state executive committee for adjustment; this he also de- clned to do.
 While noticed in an editorial in he Montgomery Advertiser that any number of democrats in the district may have the right to petition to obtain the opinion of the state executive committee on the suD- ject, believe that such course, when op- posed by other democrats, would result in further bitterness and party division.
 It is therefore left to me, and 10 me alone, to determine whether the ticket shall be further endangered. have decided that it shall not.
 In thus formally withdrawing from the race desire to thank my friends, both in Hale and Greene counties, for the indorse- ment which they gave me in the late pri mary. If should, for mere personal in- terest, in any way ieopardze the democratic ticket, 1 would forfeit that regard which they so generously bestowed upon me.

NOT A RETALIAToRY ACT.
The Embargo on American Cattle will
Soon Be Raised.

Washington, November 2.-The German
embassy here repeats the statement given
out in Berlin that the prohibition of Ameri-
can cattle by the German government is
not an act of retaliation, but sanitary
measure. information WAS telegrapned to
this country. it is said, from high officials of
the German foreign Office that some cattle
recently arriving from America were
diseased and under these circumstances 1t
was deemed advisable to shut out all i'm
portations until the German officials were
satisfied of their healthfulness.
This action, it is asserted, would have
been taken, even If this country had not
imposed a discriminating duty on German
beet sugar. The German foreign Office is
constrained to believe the administration
will make every effort to have the dscrimi-
mating duty abolished. and meanwhile, it is
said that the embargo ON American cattle
will be raised ut the first practicable
moment, without reference to what Con-
gress may do with the sugar question,
