CHAIRMAN KLE1NoGE1 of the
fusion state committee and Messrs.
Creel, Holmes, Schaeffer, Camp
bell and Lieber, candidates on
the fusion state ticket, were in
Lisbon attending the pop conven-
ton the other day and'now comes
the Ransom County Gazette with
the following: "A. L. Whipple,
our resident candidate on. the
dlemo-pop state ticket for commits
sioner of agriculture, manifests
much better Judgment than did
his associates on the ticket at the
convention here last Saturday.
MI. Whipple doesn't attempt to
make a speech, or even a few
brief remarks, and fiat completely
out, as they did. Mr.. Whipple
is, equipped with at least common
sense"

Fancher, candidate for governor,
thinks it may be as high as 49,
600, although admitting, that he
is lighter than any of the other
candidates. M. H. JEWELL. secre-
.tary> of the state committee, looks
for. a majority as large as that of
two years ago. Major Edwards
of the Forum, thinks 3, 800 a very
conservative estimate. There are
probably 5000 more voters in the
state than in;1896, and for various
good, reasons it is believed that
the larger portion of them are re-
publicans. They will be looked
to to overcome in part the lack of
interest usually displayed in. the
off year, and keep the republican
vote in the proximity of the high
mark set in 1896. The .fusionists
have no heart in: the. work before
them, and in county after county
to the north and west have openly
abandoned the field. In some in
stances, they have not nominated
local tickets, and in others have
nominated, them merely for the
purpose of holding the party or
ganization intact. Cavalier is
almost the only county which is
reasonably certain to give a fusion
majority this year. Six other
counties, close in 1896, Walsh,
Pembina, Nelson, Barnes, Sar-
gent and Dickey, are almost sure
this time to give comfortable re-
publican majorities. In all the
other counties, and in the state as
a whole, it is simply a question as
to what the size of the republican
maiorities will be-. Two years
ago, when the republicans won by
5000, there was a hard contest in
every voting precinct in the state.
Silver was at flood tide, hard times
we're still in evidence, the people
wcre dissatisfied, and the dismal
croakings of populist orators were
listened to eagerly. There was an
agitator on every street corner in
the towns, and in every township
and the country districts, This
year brings a wonderful change.
Prices have gone up. Wool has
doubled in value as compared with
1896, beef and pork are selling on
a distinctively up grade, wheat
has been at top notch price with
out the advice and consent of sill
yer, everything the farmer raises
has been given a ready market at
living prices or better. The call
amity bowler has disappeared.
His dismal prophecies of 1896
have proved false. He is in dis
repute. The people no longer
trust him. They do not care to
listen to him again. The wave
of patriotism rolled high in North
Dakota, under the influence of the
Spanish war, and the glorious
conclusion of that war has REIN
forced the republican party in the
good graces of the people. What
they did in 1896 they stand ready
to do now. It will only be a ques-
ton of getting them to the polls.
If there is a full vote, the 5000
majority of 1896 will be exceeded,
and Mr. Fancher's estimate will
not be so far from the fact.

health are like the carpenter who neg

or "half sick have you ever thought
that your kidneys may be the cause OF

It is easy to tell by setting aside your
urine for twenty-fOur hours; a sediment
or settling indicates an unhealthy con-
dition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney

that the kidneys and bladder are out

purcasing power Of money, with
the ever decreasing value of

the hour.
OF the affairs in our beloved
State no words should be needed
to awaken the patriotism of her
sons. A political campaign is
just ahead of US, in which the
wager of the contest is the good
name and prosperity of North
Carolina. We should begin work
at once; prescribing no test oath
to our fellowship to all who want
to join US in securing just laws
and good government. An early
convention is fixed, where differ
ences. if any exist, will be adj
justed. the plan of fight mapped
out and then a united Democracy
will triumph.
l respectfully suggest that the
county conventions should be
held as soon as convenient for
the election of delegates. The
nomination of county officers and
members of the General Assem-
bly, may be postponed until later
as each county convention may
think advisable.
