GILES WANTS JENKINS DOWN
Thinks That He Could be Elected if the Hon
Jo-Jo Was Out ofthe Way.

Mr.. ]. A. Giles Republican candidate
for Congress in this district, was in the
city yesterday, on his way from Franklin
to Johnston county, where he speaks to-
day.
(Which will come down, you or Jen>
kins? he was asked.
Il don't know about Jenkins but I
know l shall not come down. If there
is any coming down done he'll have to
do it,"
DO you think you will be elected?"
Il think l would have a majority of the
votes if Mr.. Jenkins was out of the way
If he stays in he will get a great many
votes that otherwise would be cast for
me. take it that the Populists would
not vote for Mr.. Pou, but they would
vote for me if they had no candidate of
their own
do you think Jenkins will come
down."
"Of course hope so. but l have no
means of knowing. have not personally
talked with him on the subject"
Further discussing the campaign Mr..
Giles acknowledged that Bryan would
carry North Carolina, but thought it
would be by reduced majority

Mr. Watson's Position.

To the Editcr:- During the campaign
for Senator l have avoided all discussion
of the merits of Senatorial candidates
and have condemned personal attacks
upon any and all of them. l believe in
the primary. but at the same time think
that the people should be permitted to
declare their choice without interference
on the part of partizans of either of the
gentlemen named for the high position.
] saw a communication some days since
in the News and Observer from my
friend R. T. Gray, Esq, in which l am
grouped. with many other Democrats, as
favoring Mr.. Carr for Senator.
/ intended to take no notice of the
communication at the time, but / find
that the letter is being republished in
other papers, and being otherwise used
III favor of Mr. Carr. My name does not
belong in the list of Mr.. Carr's support
ers. not that l have serious objections to
him for Senator, but because l think it
better for the Democratic party and for
the State for Mr.. Simmons to be chosen
and as the campaign progresses the more
strongly am l convinced that the position
here taken is right
Yours truly,

Senatorial Question In Craven.
Especial to News and Observer

Especial to News and Observer
Newbern, N. c., Oct. 30.-Quite sensa-
tional move was made in this city today
with reference to the Senatorial contest.
1t is a well known fact that the Newbern
Journal is strong Carr paper and has
been during the entire contest. Today a
letter was addressed to the editors of the
Journal setting forth the facts that,
while the editors had perfect right to
their individual preference, as a large
majority of the Democrats of Newbern
and Craven county were strong Simmons
men, the Journal should be honest enough
to say so.
The letter was signed by one hundred
and thirty prominent citizens patrons of
the Journal. 1t is needless to state that
the said letter will appear in tomor-
rows edition of the Journal.
