ECHOES CT THE U D. C CONVENTION
What Daughter Has to say of the Boundless
Hospitality of the New Born People.

Every life has its bright days-days
that grow brighter and brighter as they
recede farther and farther into the past.
| can safely speak for all the delegates
| to the Daughters of the Confederacy
Convention at New Bern, apd say that
the days spent there have already been
strung upon memory's golden rosary.
From the moment that our feet touched
the friendly soil of the historic city by
the Trent till adens were waved us on
leaving, not only all doors but also all
hearts were open to us. Everything was
ours for the asking, yea, even for the
wishing. Nothing could be paid for-no
carriage. no sail boats. no steam launch,
no railroad excursion. Even the
baggage smashers, those terrors of
the heart feminine, grew not only care
full and kind but absolutely refused to
touch money.
Somehow our money had got to be OF
no account at all. Nobody wanted any
of it. We older daughters on this point
felt d little like we did Just as the
COnfedcracy was trembling on the brink
of ruin and people grew contemptous of
our currency, calling it JEFF Davis
Shucks."
Well, as to our bright and all too
brief soiourn in New Bern it was like
stepping backward a millennium or so
into the very heart of the Arabian
Nights. For to wish for, even to think
of a pleasant thing was, Presto! to
bring it and that, too, without money
and without price. The whole world, or
at least that most delightful corner of
it, seem to have nothing to do no
thought but to minister to our happi-
ness

A NEW DEPARTURE
A New and Unique Method Of
Campaign Management.
D. 'It' Fort viii Daily no Longer With Can
didates, Can't Play Game OF Political
''BIiad Mans Bluff"
Blind Mans Bluff. "

Mr. David ct" Fort, the great Il am"
of the Independent movement in Wake,
has at last decided upon plan of cam
paign 1t is a new and unique method
and will be closely watched by all cam
paign managers, State and national, for
il, by this method Mr. Fort wins, the
great question of successful campaign
management will have been solved and
simplified, to a most wonderful extent,
Mr.. Fort has tried half dozen times to
get out ticket that would stick ana
subject itself to the consideration Of the
voters of Wake county, but in each in
stane he has failed.
He now proposes to run a ticket IN
awares, so to speak, in other words
unbeknowenst to the voters or the can
didates. He has circulated a notice all
over the county reading about as fol-
lows:
This is to certify that there will be
an independent citizens ticket in Wake
county to vote for on election day.
(Signed) I'D. 1. FORT, Chm"
OF course the voters are to have moth
ing to do with naming the ticket and ii
would seem too that the men whose
names are to be on the ticket are to
have nothing to do with it. Mr.. Forts
past experience has doubtless convinced
him that it will not do to let the can
didates know anything about it, for they
would do like the others that has been
mentioned, decline 10 run, and it would
not do to let the voters have a finger in
the pie for they might decide on some
ole OF Of
Mr.. Fort. So he has decided to slil
up on the blind side OF both voters and
candidates and make the candidates run
and the voters vote for them whether
they wish to or not.
This is a new method of campaigning,
and if successful will very probably be
adopted by all parties in all national,
State and county elections. 1t is per-
fectly simple, and is so much more
economical than the old methods. The
candidates have no canvassing ito do: no
issue 30 discuss; no promiSes to make to
the people; no pie" to promise, indeed
they are not to know anything about it
until they wake up after the election and
are informed by Mr.. Fort that they have
been duly elected, and then the people,
they have nothing to do but to vote.
They have no thinking to do, as to
whether this man or that man is the pro-
per man for the position. They don't
have to consider how any candidate
stands on any proposition. They don't
even have to know anything about the
men they are voting for. All they have
to do is to vote the ticket that is pro-
vided by Mr.. Fort on election day. In
short, Mr.. Fort touches the button, they
do the rest.
This is an evolution that evolves some
thing; a resolution that resolves some
thing; declaration that declares some
thing; proclamation that proclaimg
something, and new departure that viii
depart somewhere after November the
4th.

Yesterday morning, upon the converting
Of the Superior court the jury in the
Smith case against, the Seaboard Air Line,
came into court and asked for part OF
the evidence in the case. The Judge
asked them if they thought they would
be able to come to an agreement, They
said they could tell after reading thia
additional evidence, and retired again TO
the jury room.
In a short time they came back and
told the judge they, could not agree. They
stood eleven to one in favor of givng
Eoung Smith damages.
Judge Timberlake thereupon discharged
he jury. The case went into their hands
Wednesday afternoon, and it is said the
first ballot, taken Immediately upon
withdrawing, was III. 1t was a suit
brought by George Smith through his
sather, J. Nj. Smith, for SEQ 0G0 damages.
Young Smith was in the employ of the

here last April that it was necessary to

against the Seaboard Air Line for $40
