Totals 222 as I73 800 2t9 100

The first totals are taken from the
Rutland Herald, the second from the
Free Press. There is discrepancy be-
tween the two regarding the vote OF
Essex county. Commenting on this
the Free Press of the 10th inst says:
Conflicting reports have been received
from Essex county and the above fiugres
are not given by the papers supporting
other candidates but the most reliable H.
formation to be secured warrants the
above statement. A Proctor supporter
claims to this paper that of the five
towns reported for the first time to-day
Proctor should be credited with one
delegate in Bloomfield, one in East
Haven, two in Guildhall; that the Lem
ington delegate is unpledged. The two
delegates in Canaan are unpledged but
will 60 to Proctor; that Norton is for
Proctor and that Proctor has solid
delegation in Lunenburgh.
Reliable advices to this paper from
men who have kept an accurate record
of the delegates chosen and who say
they have letters substantiating their
claims show that Norton and Canaan
are for Mccullough and that w. G.
King of Lunenburgh is for Mccullough
Of the five towns reported for the first
time to-day these advices credit Proc,
tor with one delegate in Bloomfield
one in East Haven and two in Guild
hall; Mccullough one delegate IN
Brunswick and one in Lexington.
Advices to the HERALD from towns
in this county give Clement delegates
Victory and Brighton; Mccullough
Concord and Brunswick); Lexington
and Canaan unpledged, (the latter re
ported as for Proctor) and the othe
towns for Proctor. This is the exac
information sent to this office by mai
and by wire, and we have the origina
reports as our authority, but if the del
egates above named have written a

OurTrade With Canada.

Our townsman, Hon. q. N. Dale, who
represents the United States govern
ment as Consul at Coaticook, P. O.,
has written an interesting and suggestive
report to the state department concern
ing our trade in that part of Canada.
He says
This country has been slow in adopt
ing the finer qualities of machinery,
vehicles and especially farming imple-
ments, but it is making progress in this
direction, and the impression is general
that the United States makes the best ma
chinery. But dealers say that they are
prevented from ordering from the United
States by the high rate of duties here.
From my observation l believe that
there is decline in the sale of American
goods, though perhaps this is not true of
all parts of the Dominion. Dealers here
are buying in the interior and west of
Canada, wagons, carriages, ploughs and
many farming implements, as we'll as
pianos, etc. American sewing machines
maintain their position in Canadian
markets as do some Of the finer qualities
of silver plated wares. American brass
manufactures are sold here, because
they are superior to any that can be
manufactured in Canada. But one can
not fail to be impressed, in going through
the establishments here, with the scarcity
ofAmerican goods. Besides the tariff
another great hindrance to our trade is
the lack of energy in keeping it up
To do this, and to introduce anything
new, requires the persistent and intelli
gent efforts of American "drummers."

DATED BACK RECEIPT
The Sheriff of Sampson Plans
to get Illegal Votes.
A Man Who Paid his Poll Tax in July was Given
a Receipt Dated April so he Could Vote
for Pop-RadS.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Dunn, N. c., Oct. 25.-One of the stock
arguments of the Re-pop-l-cans, now
called Pub-nig-ins, is to denounce the
Democrats for fraud in elections. They
have no foundation for such charges ex-
cept that Democrats have never wanted
negroes to vote. 1t seems that in Samp-
son county it is a Pop-Rad sheriff who
is violating the law for partisan purposes
as the follwing affidavit shows
State of North Carolina,
County of Harnett.
G. H. Parker, being duly sworn, de-
poses and says:
On the 23rd day of July, 1902, Robert
Stone, of Sampson county, brought
postoffice money order to me payable
to Sheriff Amans. of Sampson county,
and asked me to write a letter to said
sheriff enclosing said order in payment
of his toxes This letter l wrote at
Stones dictation, and according to his
direction requested that receipt be mailed
to him in care of the firm with whom
| was associated. A few days later the
letter came enclosing tax receipt, which
letter and receipt said Stone requested
in April, and the letter. which was
signed by Sheriff Amans stated that he
had dated the tax receipt prior to the
first day May so that he (Stone} could
vote this fall. G.. H. PARKER.
Sworn to and subscribed before me
this the oath day of October, 1902.
j. c. CLIFFORD,
Notary Public.
How is this for Marion Buffers coun-
ty? Is this the purity and fair dealing
in politics he has taught his own county
officials? This is not the first instance in
which the sheriff of Sampson county has
done this thing.

There is more talk of Judge ]. NJ Griggs
for Speaker than of any one else of eth

or three things: The Democrats hold the

Georgia has been ably managed, and CD

skilful manager of the minority since Mr..
Bailey went to the Senate, is in i'll health

Representatives De Almond and Champ
