A PROUD DAY FOR THE WHITE MANHOOD
OF NORTH CAROLINA
The VnfA ThrOuohOuf the State

The election passed off quietly
without incident or excitement to
mark the day from any other save for
the suspension of business and the
unusual Sabbath like quietness which
prevailed.
This speaks well for our people,
white and colored, but nothing else
was expected. There was no occasion
for trouble and the people would have
none Of it.
Full returns are not at hand but
the entire Democratic ticket in the
county is elected by from $50 to 500.
Henderson gave majority of 5lS for
the Amendment.
For the first time since the forma-
ton of the county white man is
elected to the Legislature. That good
citizen and Christian gentleman Will
liam b. Daniel has this distinction.
Warren county gives Democratic
ma jority of 800 to 1000 and this helps
to elect }. f. Burroughs to represent
the Eleventh Vance and Warren)
Senatorial district.
Old Granville, on the other side of
us, comes up white with majority
for Aycock, the Amendment and the
county ticket of from 600 to l, 900.
And Franklin, true to herself and
the white manhood and womanhOod
of the State, gives 1000 majority.
The State goes Democratic by 80
600 to 10000 estimated majority.
The Legislature is overwhelmingly
Democratic in both branches. This
means the retirement of Butler and
his gang of conspirators to political
obscurity if not infamous degradation.
That is glory enough for one day.
Following is the vote as given by
counties as shown by latest returns
up to the hour of going to press this
morning:

enough votes to declare ii defeated
and then re-elect Marion Butler to
the Senate, which Of itself would be
such blow to the decency and virtue
and intelligence Of the people OF
North Carolina as to offset all the
glory of a $4,000 majority for our
State ticket.

such an infamy to be heaped upon us

NEWS NOTES.
The fusion" ticket did not be-
come definitely known until Saturday
five days before the election, only.
1t is said to have been materially
altered during the preceding week.
Now Adams is the candidate for gov
ernor. Cy. Thompson says he came
down and sacrificed himself to aid
Butler in his fight for reelection to
the Senate; that had he CThompson)
insisted on remaining as the head of
the ticket the Republicans in the leg
islature would not support Butler,
etc. But there was really little kick
ing, because of the hopelessness of
the race. The fusiOnistS are strain
ing every nerve to carry the legisla-
ture now. Better watch 'em, and
watch 'em closely. Be sure and vote
for the Democratic nominees for the
Senate and House. and don't ''trade."
Cv. Thompton says the fusionists can
lose the State ticket by 10000 and
still elect fusion legislature. Cy. is
again out for Secretary of State.

LONDON, July PA dispatch to
the Daily News from Berlin SAYS that
a japanese diplomatic attache to the
legation there has made the following
statement in reference to the com
mand Of the allies in China:
"A japanese General would not as
sumo chief command of the allies, be-
cause Japan is not a European power,
and it is essential to show the Chinese
government that the conflict which
has been forced on the powers by
China proceeds from Europe and not
from Japan. Moreover, quite apart
from the numerical superiority CT the
Europeans, it would not become us to
assume the leadership. since the be-
lief would thereby be awakened in
China that Europe was being taken in
tow by Japan and that Japan had in
stigated the whole conflict, whereas
she in reality is merely guided by an
endeavor to assist as a civilized ma
ton in bringing about a peaceful
solution of the Chinese question. \

The diplomatist added that the
japanese would not act under a
foreign commander.

military procedure as the co-opera-
ton OF Japan with the European and
American contingents, who. for their
part must appoint a commander,
whereas the japanese army would be

SHAMEFUL. ABUSE OF POWER.

The letters of Chairman Simmons
to the President and Civil Service
Commission calling attention to the
pernicious meddling of Federal office
holders with local politics in this
State and the tlagrant violation Of
the Civil Service law by said partisan
officials. have attracted no little at
tention elsewhere. The New York
Herald and other leading papers have
thought the matter Of sufficient I'M
portance to publish the letters in full.
The Philadelphia Record in an editor
ial on the subject says:
a Democratic appeal comes up
from North Carolina against fragrant
abuses Of the Civil Service law by
Federal officials in that State. Chair
man Simmons. of the Democratic
Executive Committee OF North Caro-
lima, writes that since the opening of
the campaign these officials have
grossly abused their power by at
tempting to control both the Republi-
can and the Populist nominations and
by exercising constraint upon voters.
1t is not likely that the chairman's
appeal to the Civil Service Commits
sion will have any effect. In this
Presidential campai en- the Civil Ser
vice law is silent. But we believe
that the Democrats of North Carolina
will be more than match for their
Republican and Populist opponents.
backed by the whole power Of the
Federal Administration
The Record is right. The whole
gang will he swept off the face of the
earth at the polls to-day. The COM
bined forces of Hanna's henchmen,

allies and the devil cannot avail

Ir is said that threats have been
made by some OF the negroes as to
what they will do if the amendment
is carried. We do not anticipate any
serious trouble. but we say TO the
negroes that if trouble does come
they will be the sufferers. The white
people are prepared to protect them
selves and will not be deferred by
threats of any kind. The negroes are
not going to be hurt by the amend
ment and they cannot afford to be
melted to deeds Of violence by low

who will skulk away when danger

If the farming public will con-
tinue to. cooperate with the
heartiness already displayed,
this effort will result IN a more
trustworthy census of farms than
has ever been taken. Farmers,
as a class, are less able to CO.

more for them than it can for
