BRYANs MAJORITY 10000 TO 10000
The Democrats Will Show Big Gains in Man.
Counties.

At State Democratic headquarters
Bryan's majority is figured out as any
where from 10000 to 10000, it's size de-
pending on whether or not a full vote is
polled.
Speaking of the general result all over
the State, Mr.. Pearsall, secretary to
the State Democratic committee. last
night said he saw no sign of any
break in the party organization in any
section of the State, and that we would
carry in this election every county that
We carried in the last election, possibly
with the exception of three or four, and
that these would be counties that were
carried in the last election by majorities
of less than fifty. He added Quite
a number of counties we failed to carry
in August by small majorties we will
carry in this election. We will gain as
many counties in this election as we lost
in August. The vote, of course, will not
be so large as it was then
Commenting on the fact that there was
much more apparent interest in the SEN
atorial primary than in the Presidential
election, he said that it was not be-
cause the people felt less interest in the
election of President and vice presi-
dent and nine Congressman than in who
should be Senator, but that the Demo-
Gratis took it for granted that they would
elect these and therefore bent their en-
ergies to elect their favorite to the SEN
ate. He said that he did not think that
the Senatorial primary would have much
effect towards bringing the vote out, and
that if we did not have a primary much
Of the interest shown in it would be de-
voted to the National campaign.
II want to say most emphatically, he
added, that the charge that the ma
chinery of the party has been used for
the advancement of one of the Sena-
torial candidates is not true so far as
the State committee is concerned. Moth
ing has gone out from headquarters that
favored one or opposed another of the
gentlemen running. But l have no in
formation as to what was done in the
counties. l knew the fact that each of
the candidates had active supporters in
the persons of some of the county chair
men. But / do not know of a single
county chairman in the State doing an
improper thing in the interest of one of
the candidates, and furthermore | do
not believe that any of them would do
so. l know a great many of them perz
scnally and others by reputation, and
they are intelligent, heightened, honor
able and patriotic men, and their honest,
unselfish and devoted attention to duty
has done as much, perhaps more, than

THE VOTE TWO YEARS AGO
The Senatorial Contests Very
Hot and May be Close.
BOTH SIDES CLAIM A VICTORY
Secretary Pearsall Resen.s the Use Of the Term
Machine" and Denies That its Inhu-
ence Has Been Used in Any
bodys Interest.

1t is not difficult to predict what
the result of the voting in North
Carolina will be today, so far as the
national ticket is concerned. From
the first it has been a one-sided con-
test and it has all along been appar-
ent that Bryan would be an easy win
ner.
The only uncertainty in the regular
election is as to the congressman
from the Eighth and Ninth districts.
They are both close and doubtful,
with the chances, certainly in the
Eighth, favoring the Democrats.
As to the Senatorial contest, it is
hot and has too frequently been bit
ter. Both sides claim a victory and
only an actual count of the votes can
decide it.
Today the votes will be cast and
tonight the struggle will be at an end.

BRITISH VIEW OF PHILIPPINES.
Natives Would Yield, but Are Re
strained by Leaders.

The State Department has received from
United States Consul Halstead at Birming-
ham, England, an abstract of the annual
report Of the British consul at Manila con-
corning the trade and conditions in the
Philippine Islands The Britisher's report
is Of especial value in that 1t Is an entirely

THE collapse Of the insurrection last NO
vember," ne says, land the opening OF the
ports since January l, have restored conn-
dence. and great activity in commercial
quarters has ensued. Law and order are
being restored as rapidly as possible, but
the immense size of the country renders II
difficult task. The natives, l believe, ne
says, would willingly return TO their agrl-
cultural pursuits, but the influence OF their
leaders appears sufficiently strong to keep
them from Surrendering.
1.-The two well-known leading industries
of Manila-nemp and tobacco, the
consul, will. l fear, suffer very severely
for some time from the late insurrectlon
The natural Incidence Of the Filipino Will
make 1t almost impossible to do without the
one of great Importance in the islands
There Is a strong influence against the &C.
lestials,' he says, for by their industrious
ha bits they gradually obtain monopol1es In
all retail trades, but, on the other hand. the
Filipinos themselves have no energy and
no commercial instinct" II
Consul Halstead also transmits an extract
from a report of the British vice consul at
Iloilo, in which he says: 1.-THE United States
forces having now successfully occupied the
better part of the island the end of this
year augurs well for a. happier future, and
many important improvements will take
place." ii

Major Desborough. writing from Fresno. Cal.
says: Il found Grape-Nuts food 45 miles in the
mountains In an old oil camp where the whole
crowd. 10 men, eat 1t for breakfast every day and
every Sunday have 1t in pudding for dinner..''
General +. @. Machen. old Confederate SOL
dier, has just returned from an extended trip
through the Southwest and along the Mexican bor-
der, Investigating mining properties. He says:
mo matter where Travelled. I always found it
possible to get Grape Nuts and Postum Food Coffee
of which am very fond
The Grape-Nuts breakfast food is especially
valued by campers and frontier people, 1t Is
already cooked and ready for instant service, and
being concentrated furnishes unusual strength and
ncurishment, in a small quantity. II is believed
that man can travel farther and exercise more
continuously few teaspoons Of Grape Nuts

The reason for this is that there are selected
elements In Grape-Nuts that furnish direct to the

Nuts Is absolutely certain Of good condition of the

A Popular Mistake
REGARDING REMEDIES FOR DYSPEPSIA AND
INDIGESTION

INDIGESTION.
The national disease of Americans is indigestion,
or. in Its chronic FORM dyspepsia and for the very
reason that 1t is SO common many people neglect
taking proper treatment for what they consider
trilng stomach trouble, when. a matter of fact.
indigestion lays the foundation for many incurable
diseases. No person with vigorous. healthy
stomach will fall victim to consumption Many
kidney diseases and heart troubles date their begun
ming from poor digestion; thin. nervous people are
really so because their stomachs are out Of gear:
weary, languid faded out women owe their condi-
tion to imperfect digestion.
When nearly every person you meet is afflicted
with weak digestion 1t is not surprising that nearly
every secret patent medicine the market claims
to he cure for dyspepsia, well as n score of
other troubles when in fact. as DR.. Werthier says,
there is but one genuine dyspepsia which is
perfectly safe and reliable, and, moreover, this
remedy is not a patent medicine. but it is scien-
tifc combination Of pure pepsin Gree from animal
NATTER. vegetable essences. fruit salts and bis
muth. 1t is cold by druggists under name Of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets No extrnyagant claims
are made for them. but for Indigestion or any
stomach trouble. stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
far ahead of any remedy yet discovered. They act
on the food eaten. dieting is necessary. simply
eat all the wholesome food you want, and these
tablets will digest it. A cure results because all
the stomach needs is q rest. which Stuart's Dys-
