Goldsboro. N. c., November 1S.-Mrs.
John H. Winder, returning from the
convention of the Daughters of the
Confederacy at Charleston, S. c., was
the guest of the Hotel Kennon at din
ner yesterday. In an interview she said
that out of the many Presidents pres
ent at the convention eight were North
Carolinians or the wives of North Car
olinians. Among those principally men,
toned were Mrs. Alex. Hull, nee Miss
Cowan, Of Wilmington. representing
Georgia; Mrs. Annie Washington Rap
ley, nee Miss Washington, of New Bern.
President of the Missouri Division, and
President of the Chapter Of ST. Louis,
where the convention will be held next
year; Mrs. F. A. Olds, wife of Colonel
Olds. who most ably represented North
Carolina; Mrs. John II. Winder. nee
Miss Tucker, Of Raleigh, representing
Ohio. Her enthusiasm for the Old
North State has never abated. but
seems to have grown more fervent. if
possible since her residence IN Column
bus, Ohio. Fighting, as she says, under
but two banners-that of the Daughters
of the King n that of the Daughters
Of the COnfederacy, each banner near
ing a cross and each cross stained with
blood-the first will dominate her work
in the latter.
The grand ball and banquet of the
PythianS to be given in the army on
Friday night, which will bring to q
close the festivities in connection with
Pythian fair this week, was proceeded
by an ~imprOmptu dance in the audito-
rum of the new city hall tonight after
the fair had closed. The affair tonight
was given in honor Of the many young
lady visitors in the city, vino are here
to attend the fair and visit their friends.
II was q very enjoyable occasion and
furnished bliss unaIloyed for the num-
erOus participants. The music was fur
nished by the GOldsbOro orchestra and

THE SOCIALIST VOTE.
How the Representative Democratic

CFrom the Boston Post. Dem.)
The drop of some 5000 votes in lhc
poll for the Socialist candidate fer
governor this year looks pretty serious
when it is compared with the large
increase in the election of 1902. Tho
falling off is about % per cent. But
when we take into consideration the
variable character of his vote the fig

so significant.

if instead of comparing his vote this
year with the vote he received last

We shall see a gain of $50 per cent.

the game of politics.
The size of the Socialist vote. how

And the reasOn of his is plain. So

lists are practical,S they are held by
one or both of the great political
parties, and can be fixed in legisla-

one Of those parties. Those Social
