AYCOCk BY ACCLAMATION
Charlotte News.

Charlotte News.
Developments in the past few
days insure the nomination of
Mr.. Aycock by acclamation at the
April convention.
Mr.. Aycock is an ideal leader
in such a contest as we have be-
fore US this year. And not only
is he fine debater and an elo-
quent orator, but he will come
nearer commanding the enthusi :
astic support Of Democrats Of
every section than any other
man.
Even when there were other
candidates from the western part
of the STATE, Mr. Aycock had as
strong support in their districts
as they had themselves, and in
his own section there was no op-
posing vote.
We may as we'll nail this to the
masthead:
For Governor,
CHARLES B. AYCOCK,
of Wayne.

COL. CUNNINGHAM OUT.
WithdraWS IS Candidate For
Governor.
Governor.

Governor.
The following letter from Colonel
Cunningham, which was given to the
press Saturday, states his reason
for Withdrawing from the guberna.
torial contest:
Cunningham, N c., March Is, 1900.
To the People of North Carolina:
Mr. Editor: [ believe the success
of the Democratic party this year
is paramount to the ambition of any
man, and that each member of the
party ought to yield his own wishes
in the interest of unanimous action.
I think it is also important that
the candidate for Governor, who is
rightly regarded as the leader of the
party, should be selected, as far as
possible, without contest and with
practical unanimity.
Holding these views, and desiring
always to do what is best for the
party and the State, and believing
what is the welfare Of one is for the
welfare of the other, [ have decided
to with draw from the race for Gov
ernor.
I congratulate myself that in the
contest which I have made I have
done nothing to create any enmities,
and that the friends of other candi
dates have been considerate of me
and of my friends.
I have endeavored to conduct my
campaign upon high plane of po-
litical ethics, indulging in no un-
kind criticism or harsh statements
concerning any one.
Every patriotic citizen must adj
NIT that the success of the party in
the coming campaign is more i'm
portant than the triumph Of any Ia
dividual, and that party success at
this time should be placed high
above every other considera ton.
The constitutional amendment is
at issue, and it must be decided in
favor of white supremacy.
Ny friends throughout the State
have been loyal to me. and they
have labored in my behalf with effec-
tive earnestness and zeal. To them I
am truly grateful, and it is to them
that I turn with sincere pride, and
shall ever cherish their loyal sup
port as the brightest page in the his
tory of my life.
They have waged a vigorous con-
test, and the assurances of support
which I have received from many
sources have been warm and encour-
aging.
I deeply appreciate every kind
word they have spoken in my behalf,
and I feel they will understand my
action IN retiring from athe race at
and the good people of North Caro-
lima that am taking this step be-
cause believe that it is in the in
terest of party harmony for me to
do so, and because I think that my
retirement will in measure simplify
the situation and increase to some
extent our chances of party success.
Every one who knows me will un-
derstand that my best services from
now on, as they have, always been in
the past, will be at the command of
the Democratic party, and I have
never failed to enter into the thick
est of the fight whenever the princi-
pies of our party have been assailed
or white supremacy threatened.
Very respectfully,
JOHN S. CUNNINGHAM.

A NeWsy Letter From lhe State
Capi al ON he Trend Of
S.ata Politics.
Sats Politic
Especial Torrespondence.)

Raleigh, N, c., March 10,
19OO:-A Republican Of promi-
nence from the eastern part OF the
State said to-day that he violently
opposed bis party's having any
oreaniz ltlon in the East for the
August election, and assigned as
reason that to organize would
only make tbs whites more deter
mined 10 carry the election. This
was delicate way Of expressing
his belief lat the Democrats
would certainly win.
The fact is that the Republicans
so far have no plans and no cans
didates. 1t is always their Gus
tom to select their men before
hand, make up slate IN fact, but
this year they are at sea, and Of
fees appear to go begging. They
know Democra tic nominations are
equivalent t. elections. Not Q Be
publican can be found who has any
idea wao Will be his party's nomi-
nee for Governor. Out OF doz-
ems asked, rot one has answered
with any degree of positiveness.
Some say in vague way, Rich
mont Pearson, while others say
he doesn't want the nomination,
but does want to go to Congress
from the Ninth District,
Com pIete as was Republican
Chairman Ho.ton's downfall and
collapse two years ago, Republ-
cans are saying he will be re elect
ed Chairman.
Speakiugs are in progress in
many counties and wildly scatter
ed. Tue amendments is the sole
topic. The plan to make all else
subordinate to it is being carried
out by the Democrats. The Re-
publicans are putting some speak
ers in the field, but they DO most
of their work by wacking,
taking single voters or very small
groups. 1t will he costly cam~
paign for them, but Of course their
National Committee will help
them, as it did in 1896, when it
gave 100000 for North Carolina.
In few cases Populists are speak
ing, but very few. Senator But
Ter is practically the only Populist
to make any sign, barring the
nine members of the State Com-
mittee who met here in January
and Illuminated against the amend
ment.
A Populist, who in 1896 was
of State prominence, Gays Senator
Butler is dealing with the Repub-
licans as if he could command, or
commanded, 10000 Populists,
whereas he does not control 1O,-
600 and, that the esPopulists who
will vote against the amendment
would do so anyway, Butler or no
Butler.
Some of the Populists who in
1896 and 1898 were prominent in
politics, will this year retire. State
Auditor Aver, ex-Chairman, is
one. The Popullsts who are try
ing to drive their people against
the amendment have discovered
that they cannot carry out their
plans.' Enough hints have been
dropped to show them what the
Convention will do-that is, leave
the amendment to the individual
view of the Populists.

extend to him the right of suf-
fraee in local issues, which would
mean the election of negro off,
cials to rule the less numerous
whites of many communities, with
consequent corruption and abuse
of power. The situation is SIM
pie. In political sense there is
no more "negro problem in
the South. 1t was long ago solved
by the shotgun and Winchester.
The negro should relinquish his
dream of dominion, fostered by
vicious demagogues, for he can

Baltimore and Ohio railroad below
the Boggs' rum crossing in

half-past five o'clock, resulting In the
death of Charles F. Bowman, of this
city, the aged and well known night
watchman at the Riverside mill. Mr..
Bowman left the plant at the usual hour
and started to walk along the
road toward his home in South
Wheeling. On reaching a point
near the crossing he failed to
observe the Cincinnati and Pitts
burg express train coming UP the road
at a lively rate of speed for the reason
that 1t was rather dark at that hour,
and as he stepped upon the track he was
struck by the engine and thrown vio-
lently to the ground. The train was
Immediately stopped and the unfortun~
ate man was cared for by the crew and
brought to the passenger STATION in his
city. Later he was removed in the am
bulance to the residence of his sOn-in-
law, James Crosby, No. 1928 Jacob
street, and a physicians was summoned.
On examination it was found that his
left leg was broken in two places above
the ankle and at the hip, and that his
right arm was fractured below the ell
bow. His head was also badly bruised
and he was hurt internally. Mr.. Bow
man suffered considerably from his in
juries, which were of a most serious ma
ture, and died shortly after reaching his
home and before the necessary medical
aid could be rendered.
Mr.. Bowman was siXty-seven years
old and was widely and popularity
known. He had been employed as a
might Waterman at the Riverside works
at Benwood for some time past, and
was generally considered as efficient in
his duties. His wife died about a year
ago, and since then he had been resid-
ing with his son-in-law ON South Jacob
street. He is survived by several chill
dren, among whom are Mrs. Samuel
McCarty and Mrs. James Crosby. His
death, which occurred under particular
ly sad circumstances, will be deeply re-
GREETED by his many friends. The ar
engagements for the funeral will be
made later.
Coroner Schultze held an inquest. and
rendered a verdict in accordance with
the facts.

Forme a. Catarrh.
The tablet Is the ideal form In
which to administer mediciie, but
until recently no successful catarrh
tablet has ever been attempted.
There is now, however, an excel
lent and palatable remedy for ca
tarrh in tablet form, known as
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and sold
by druggists, composed Of the
most recent discoveries IN medi-
cine for the cure of catarrh and re-
suits from their s. have been
highly gratifying.
The old time treatment of ca
tarrh was in the form of inhalers,
washes, douches, sprays, etc.
Later on internal remedies were
used with greater success, but be-
ing in liquid or powder form were
inconvenient- to use and like all
medicines in liquid Or powder
form, lose their. medical properties
when opened or exposed to the air.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain
highly concentrated ~antiseptics,
Hydrastin, Sanguinaria, Eucalyp-
toll and Guaiacol, which kill the
catarrh germs In the blood
and mucous membrane, and
in this /. respect are strict
~ scientific and modern, be
cause all authorities are now
agreed that catarrh is a consti-
tutional blood disease, and local
applications can have only a trans
itory effect.
The use of inhalers, douches
and sprays is a nuisance and in-
convenience and can in no wise
compare favorably with the same
~antiseptics given in tablet form
internally, where they can reach
the stomach and blood and kill ca
tarrh germs right where they are
produced.
A prominent lawyer and public
speaker of Pittsburg says: / have
been troubledr with catarrh of the
head and throat for twelve years,
In this climate it seem impossible
to get rid of it. The continual
dropping of mucus from the nose
into the throat caused irritation
and -hoarseness, seriously Interior
ing with my public speaking. 1t
took me an hour or more of cough
ing, gagging, expectorating and
sneezing every morning before |
could settle down to work and
this condition gradually brought
on catarrh of stomach, causing
loss of appetite, poor digestion
and a foul breath. which annoyed
me exceedingly. My physician adj
vised me to try Stuartis Catarrh
Tablets and I took them for two
months and was astonished to find
how quickly they cleared my head
throat and stomach and l have
no hesitation in recommending
them. They are not only pleasant
to take, but they seem to get at
the very root Of the trouble, be-
cause since using them | have had
no trace of catarrh.
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets at so cents for full sized
package.
They can be carried in the pocket
and used any time and as often
as desired since they contain no
cocaine, mercury or any other in
furious drug.
