tion as Elector at Large.
(Salisbury Truth-Index.) J


Hon. Lee S. Oyerman returned last night
from his campaign in the West and was
interviewed by the Truth-Index on an
article that appeared recently in Raj
eigh paper in which it was stated by Mr.
r. T. Gray that Mr.. Overman was one
among many prominent North Carolinians
who would support General J. S. Carr
for Senator.
"Have you read the article in Sundays
News and Observer in which you are
numbered as one among many of the
prominent men in the State who are for
Julian S. Carr for Senator?" Mr.. Overman
was asked.
81 have not" Mr.. Overman replied.
"Mr Gray had no authority from me for
that statement. He received that in
formation from some source, but it was
entirely unauthorized. When began this

be for Mr.. Bryan to express himself
upon that question and announce his

Claims General Carr Will be

Thinks He'll Garry Five OF The Nine Congress

Especial to News and Observer.

Especial to News and Observer
Durham, N. c., Oct. 27.-Your corre
spondent had an interview today with
Mr.. H. A. Foushee, who is in charge Of
General Julian S. Carr's headquarters
here. l asked him what do you think
of the situation? Who is ahead in the
contest?"
'rIf the election were held today" he
said, General Carr would carry five
Congressional districts and have safe
majority in the State. General Carr has
developed strength in Eastern North Car
olina that surprises his best friends. In
all the counties he has strong friends
who are working hard, and he is gaining
every day. We have ten days longer
in which to work, and the same gain with
give us handsome majority in the
State''
do you thing General Carr is losing
ground anywhere"
about thirty days ago, a systematic
effort was made to injure General Carr.
His character was bitterly assailed, and
men went about in counties where he
was not we'll known, whispering slander
against him. In some counties this stag
gered the people for a while, but they
have realized it was an effort to de-
stroy a great Democrat, who has served
his party we'll and faithfully. The re-
action is helping General Carr, Many
people who were lukewarm or Indifferent
are now actively at work. They seemed
determined to express with emphasis
their disapproval of such campaign meth
DDS. The rebound has helped General
Carr, and l do not believe there is a
single county in which he has lost ground.
On the other hand, he has made great
gains in some counties. Take the coun-
ty of Wake. Thirty days ago, we were
informed here that almost every man in
the county was for Mr. Simmons. ! have
reports from there today in which some
of General Carrs friends speak con-
fdently of carrying the county,
You seem to be in good spirits and
have confidence in the success of Gen
eral Carr"
"Yes, / am confident. 1 know that
great changes can take place in ten days,
but l do not believe the opposition can
stem the tide which is now running
strongly towards General Carr. repeat
it, General Carr will be elected. 1t
has been rumored at several places that
General Carr would withdraw from the
race and stand for the Senatorship two
years hence. that he and Mr.. Simmons
had made, or would make a deal to this
effect. These rumors are puerile and
utterly without foundation, and only in
tended to deceive the unwary. 1 want
to put his friends on guard now. General
Carr will be in the race to the finish. If
those who are now working for him

COWAN's RAD BLUFF"
Will Add Thousands of Votes For William j
Bryan.

Chicago, Oct. 26.-Editors The Sun,
Baltimore: With regard to Mr.. Governs
utterances at Music Hall Thursday night
1 would say:
Political coercion in any form is de-
structive of free government. Every bal
lot cast should express the free and
honest judgment of the voter. Any
attempt to prevent this, whether by the
offer of employment or the threat of
loss of employment, is just as Infamous
as an offer to do so by the direct corrupt
use of money. Nor is an offer to do this
one whit more respectable than ballot
box stuffing and fraudulent counting.
Every man who resorts to such methods
to prevent honest elections commits a
crime.
The country must be saved from the
party and the men who resort to these
criminal practices for controlling cleo
tions.
All honest men should unite to pre-
serve a free ballot. A more solemn duty
cannot devolve upon an American citi-
zen. JAMES K. JONES.
