DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

just exactly three weeks from this
morning and we will be voting in the
national election.
We are now in the midst of the cam
paign and the Democrats of the State
have great duty and great oppor-
tunity confronting them.
There must be Democratic unity
and Democratic earnestness to poll the
full strength of the party. North
Cardinals eleven electoral votes will
be given to- Bryan, but they must be
accompanied by such a majority as
will leave no doubt as to the over
whelming sentiment of her people
against Trusts, Imperialism and Han
naism.
Let it be remembered also that this
State is expected to send nine Demo-
cratic Representative to the next Con-
gress. This cannot be done unless the
party presents it's full strength on
election day.
Democrats of North Carolina, you
have only to be true to your cause and
earnest in your support of the princi-
pies for which your forefathers fought
to win a great victory.

MORE ABOUT KINsAULs-
There Are Many Persons Who Believe He's
Still Alive.
Wilmington Starr


The man who makes a visit up the
Wilmington and Weldon railroad these
days and doesn't bring fresh confederation
of the story of KinsauIs resuscitation
after the hanging at Clinton several weeks
ago, is Immediately put down as one re-
creant to his duty and altogether disap-
pointing.
One man who saw the execution at Gin
ton came down yesterday and said the
story of resuscitation was all "bosh; 4"
another said he saw the execution and as
soon as the murderer was cut down he
was hurried away and placed in an adj
joining room by physicians and friends, he
even went so far as to say that they took
the coffin and ran with it, Still another
man said that soon after the execution
Kinsauls' wife was seen by him in Rich
mond; he know it was she for he contrib
uted to the fund which she was raising
here for attorneys fees for her husband.
And thus the story goes.
A party of lawyers were discussing the
matter night before last of whether Kin
sauls could be hanged again in the event
he had really been snatched from death
after being pronounced dead by the physi-
clans called in by the county officially.
There was a difference of opinion. 1T
would be nice point at law one of them
said, "and l would advise Kinsauls to re-
main in Richmond, or go further, If he
is really on earth yet.

" And He Never Took Hold Again. I"

Some ten or twelve years ago lady in
this State was suffering from severe
hemorrhage of the womb. For years she
had been subject to almost continuous
flow, and at last she got into so low
condition that she was confined to the
bed. All efforts of the doctors failed to
check it, and finally two of the leading
physicians of her locality pronounced the
case cancerous. Her prostration was
great and nothing seemed to reach her
case One of her neighbors insisted on
her trying my Remedy and Wash. This
she would not do until she had consulted
her doctor. His reply was, when Mrs.
Person takes hold, we turn loose; when
she turns loose, we take hold" However,
she concluded to try it. Without letting
anyone into the secret, she used my
wash copiously. A great improvement
soon set in, and by it's continued use she
Scs soon we'll. She has been cured all
these years, and says she can never say
enough for Mrs. Joe Persons Wash.
The name of the lady will be given, if
desired, upon application to me.

THREE FLOORS FALL.
Third Accident to Roberts & Ficklen's Leaf
Factory. May HAYS to Rebuild.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and Observer
Greenville, N. c., Oct. 15.-Late Satur-
day afternoon three floors in the leaf to-
bacco factory of Roberts & Ficklen pell in.
It was caused by the floors not being able
to sustain the heavy weight OF the I'M
mense stock of tobacco they had on hand.
The lower floor was only about two feet
above the ground so that the floors could
not fall far and possibly this prevented
a total collapse of the building There
were about 200 hands at work in the
building at the time, but fortunately not
one of them was injured in any way, all
succeeding in getting out safely.
This is the third accident to the same
building. When it was being built and
the frame of five stories was up hard
wind raised it to the ground. few
years later it was badly damaged by
storm and came near being ruined. Now
three of the floors have fallen through
and the entire structure twisted out OF
shape. 1t is believed the house will have
to be torn down and rebuilt.

Just one more week-then the Fair.
Every inhabitant of the city should
bear this in mind and do all in his
power to make the event a success.
This annual State gathering draws
thousands of visitors to Raleigh who
otherwise, lacking special induce
ments, would stay at home. Those in
charge of the Fair are doing all in
their power to get up creditable ex-
position. The merchants will also do
their part by Frightening up their
places of business and joining in the

body should decorate and give a hos
pitable welcome to the stranger that

MUST HAVE CORK HELMETS.

Army officers were considerably sur
prised at reading dispatches of the suf-
ferings of the American troops in China,
from the heat on account Of their hats.
1t was the belief that the regiments
sent to China had been equipped with
cork helmets and that their campaign
hats had been discarded. The heat of the
sun is dangerous, but over-heating of the
digestive organs is even more so. To
overcome irritation and other stomach
troubles there is nothing to equal Hos

long you have. suffered from constipation,
indigestion, dyspepsia, liver and kidney

GOVERNMENT OF THE TRUSTS

In his speech at Greensboro last
night Governor Jarvis was most fortu-
nate in the use of terms, and he sized
up the situation exactly, when he said:
The first Republican President stood
for government of the people, for the
people and by the people. The last Re-
publican President is standing for a gov
eminent of the trusts, for the trusts
and by the trusts. The difference is the
difference between the blazing sun that
lights by day and the jack lantern
that deludes by night. What a mighty
gulf there is fixed between Lincoln and
Mckinley!

Let that Legislature be counted lost
that has not before it some new-county
scheme. For many years the Scotland
county bill occupied the attention of
each succeeding General Assembly
and the last one settled it. Now the
Mount Olive Advertiser speaks of a
new county which should be formed
from portions of Wayne, Duplin and
Sampson counties with Mount Olive as
the county seat. A good thing for
Mount Olive, but likely to arouse the
opposition of the counties that are to
be carved up.
