REJOICING AT RALEIGH.
Emancipation of Vance County
Coming Democratic Jubilee.

RALEIGH, n. c., November 10-(Spe-
cial.)-So far not white Republican or
a Populist has been found here who does
not rejoice at the expulsion of the negro
editor, Manly, from Wilmington Some
say they would have aided in it. and that
they wonder at the forbearance Of the
white people there.
A Vance county Populist to-day said
he rejoiced at the defeat of the negro
Register of Deeds, Eaton, In his county;
that Eaton's insolence passed belief, and
that he made speeches during the cam
paign which were as bad. or worse, than
Manly's printed articles 'defaming white
women. Eaton is the negro who pulled
Thomas p. Devereux a white man, off
the platform during the campaign, and
said he could not speak; that he himself
was going to speak. Vance county has
eliminated the negro as holder of county
offices for the first time in many a long
year.
Not a few white Republicans express
unbounded regret that George II. White,
the negro congressman In the Second Dis
trict is reelected, and that Isaac H.
Smith, of Craven, a notorious negro, is
elected to the State Senate. They say
these are, of all men, the ones they want
ed defeated, as both of them are regular
vote-makers for the Democrats. One de-
clared that Smith alone would. in the
Legislature. furnish the Democrats with
capital enough for two more years.
The rejoicing among white men here Is
delightful to see. Country people who
come into the city fairly beam with joy
Each tells about what good work was
done in his township.
One OF the happest Of men is Congress
man-ekct John w. Atwater. OF this dis
trict. He was here yesterday. and was
congratulated on all hands. Major w. A.
Guthrie was also here. His grand work
for Democracy is applauded. He is talk
ed about for a Supreme Court iudgeship
and would certainly fill the position with
dignity and ability.
The general sentiment among Demo-
Gratis appears TO be in favor of Charles
b. Aycock as the next Democratic nomi-
nee for Governor. His campaign was
notable one. and he is called 'the Young
Zeb Vance"
Congratulations are pouring In upon
Chairman simmons for the most success
full campaign since that OF 1876.

night is 10 be on great scale. with
many speakers. transparencies. illumi-
nations, fireworks, and a mile-long pro-
cession. Old and young are full of en-
thusiasm about IL.

SUICIDE OR ACCIDENT.
Mrs. Mary Brennan Taken from
the Canal in an Uncon-
scious Condition.

Mary Brennan, a married woman about
forty years old, nearly lost her life early
his morning by falling or jumping into
the canal near the Henderson street
bridge. III was unconscious when res
cued. AT the City Hospital, to which she
was taken, it is said that she will re-
cover.
1t was seven-thirty o'clock when some
men who were on their way to work
heard a woman scream and saw Mrs.
Brennan struggling in he water. BY the
time they fished her out she was I'M
conscious. The patrol wagon was sent
from the Gregory street station. On the
way to the hospital she partially regain
ed consciousness and gave Patrolman
Breune, who was in charge of the wagon,
her name. She said she fell in while
trying to fish clothes pins out of the ca
nal. She said she had been hanging out
her washing and had run short of clothes
pins. A number of them had fallen into
the water. near which her clothes line
was strung. She was leaning far over
to pull them out when h lost her bal
ance and went head first into the canal
Her story seems plausible but the po-
lice are inclined to believe that she at.
tempted suicide while temporarily out OF
her minds Their theory is borne out BY
the fact that she was but scantily clad,
fully laid her husbands hat and coat
on the bank of the canal near the spot
where she was rescued. She has a small
baby at home.
