PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S LETTER
OF ACCEPTANCE.

President ROOsevelt's letter OF &C
ceptance was given to the public
through the newspapers Monday. 1t
is a lengthy document, and from the
Republican standpoint a strong one.
Following are some of the most
salient points:
A party which with facile ease
changes all its convictions before
election cannot be trusted to adhere
with Jeracity to any principle after
election.
Had not Panama been promptly
recognized and the transit across the
isthmus kept open, in accordance
with our treaty rights and obliga-
tiOns, there would have ensued end
less guerrilla warfare and probably
foreign complications, while all
chance of building the canal would
have been deferred for years, perhaps
for Il generation or more.
The decisive action which brought
about this benifcent result was the
exercise by the President of the pow
ers vested in him, and in him alone,
by the COnstitutiOn-the power to
recognize foreign governments by ell
tering into diplomatic relations with
them. The Presidents duty is to
serve the country in accordance with
the Constitution, and | should be
derelict in my duty il ] used IL false
construction of the Constitution as Il
shield for weakness and timidity or
as an excuse for governmental i'm
pOtence.
Being unable to agree among them
selves as to whether the gold stand
ard is q curse or blessing and as to
whether we ought or ought not to
have free and unlimited coinage of
silver, our opponents have appar-
emily thought it eXpedient to avoid
any cOmmittal on those subjects
and individually each to follow his
particular bent.
Ii q protective tariff is either ''un-
constitutional or robbery" then it
is just as unconstitutional, just as
much robbery, to revise it down,
still leaving it protective. as it would
be to enact it.
Our opponents promise independ-
ence to the Filipinos. Ian their plat
form they declare for independence,
apparently without qualification us
to time. But in later and equally
official utterances by our opponents
the term self-government was sub
stituted for independence, the words
used being so chosen that in their
natural construction they described
precisely the policy now being carried
out. But this caused trouble in their
own ranks, and in still later, though
less formal, utterance the self-govern-
ment promise was recanted and indie
pendence at some future time was
promised in it's place Which is the
promise they really intend to keep?

A Remedy That No One Is

DR.. TEACHERS Liver and Blood Syrup

ffty-two years with perfect confidence
and the most remarkable results.
The great success of this remedy is due

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness. and that is by con-
stitutioual remedies Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or imper
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness rs the result, and unless the inflam-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous services.

FATAL RAILROAD WRECK.
Four Persons Killed and T1any Injured
in Accident on the Seaboard Air
Line-Train Goes Through Bridge at
Catawba Junction, s. c., and IS Kun
Into by a Freight Train FoiiowIn &.

Into by a Freight Train Following.
Passenger train, No. II, South
bound, which passes Henderson at
2:1O d. m, was wrecked at CataWDa
river bridge, near Catawba Junction,
S. c., last Friday morning, four per
SONS being killed and many injured.
A special dated the 9th from Catawba
Junction to the Charlotte tHrOnIcIe,
gave the following account:
One of the most frightfuf railroad accl-
dents that has occurred in the South IN
many years took place two miles North
of this place this morning, shortly after
/ O'Clock. when the Seaboard passenger
train No II plunged to destruction. The
almost instant mortality was four per-
sons. Not single soul escaped injury
on No. Al To increase the horror OF the
occurrence an extra freight engine, No:
GA, with only a cab attached smashed
into the rear of the first train. The fatal
lty was caused by the collapse Of bridge
about 300 feet long. located 300 yards
South of the Catawba River, and span
ming meadow. The dead are: Edward
Barksdale, of Abbeville, 5. e., engineer on
the freight train: Edward Roberts, the
negro fireman OF the passenger train;
Mrs r. F. Black. formerly of Abbeville,
S. C., and Mrs. r. S. McManus, OF Will
mington, n C. The injured numbered
twenty eight.
The mass of wreckage of the two trains
is like huge heap of junk. Railroad
men told me today that they had never
seen such a complete establishment OF
engines and coaches. They are lying
heaped and crushed together. Looking
at the cOnglOmeratiOn, people wonder
that any one escaped.
Mr.. F. {. TOepleman, OF Henderson,
was passenger on the train and sus-
tanned slight I'M uries. Hewas among
the first to crawl out from the wreck
but beyond bruises he was not much
the worse Off for his experience. Mr..
Toepleman was on his wayto the st.
Louis and proceeded on his Journey
after communicating with his people
at home by telephone and assuring
them OF his safety.
The Raleigh Post in referring to
the matter says this of Mr.. TOeple-
man who was reported among the
injured:
From the. list of the injured given
above, it will be seen that the name OF
+. {. TOepleman appears. He is the well
known and popular general manager OF
| the Home Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany, headquarters at Henderson. He
passed through Raleigh Thursday after
! noon on his way TO atlanta, from where
he intended to go to st. Louis to attend
the session of the international electrical
congress, of which he is Il member. The
fact that Mr.. Toepelman appears in the
list of the injured caused alarm among
his friends lest his injuries were serious.
He is a frequent visitor to Raleigh and is
| recognized as one of the brightest and
| most successful of the younger telephone
men Of the country

During the year 1902 there were
total OF 800 new schoolhouses erected.
In 1908 there were BAT new buildings
In 1904 there have been 1922 reported
to date with Others to hear from, which
will bring the number up to $50 or more.
The valne of these buildings of late
years has increased proportionately the
buildings being better and cOstlier than

In 1899, the total value of all the
school property in the State was ST.

In 1903 the total value had increased
to 81 500 1903. OO-an increase of $685.

DASH PLAN IN TROTS
PROVES UNPOPULAR
Horsemen Will Return to Best in 8
Under New Ruling

NEW YORK, Sept 29.-Light harness
followers in the racing end of the pastime.
are of the opinion that the dash system
tried so thoroughly at Empire and Brigh-
ton during the grand circuit meetings
will be abandoned.
James Butler, president of the two
big meetings, recently said of the plan:
I'VE have tried the plan. hanging up
the biggest purses ever offered for the
horses, and the idea does not seem to
please. 1t developed lot of flash horses
and wins We're scored by mounts that
never won before or since in many in
stances, as witness the triple victories of
Gordon Prince in the half mile dashes
at Empire and Brighton. I shall oppose
the giving of dash races in any meet
ing with which / am connected in the
future
No man has given more money, sup
ported the game better nor been the
financial man behind the works oftener
than Butler, and his opinion therefore
carries more weight with the horsemen
The plan evolved at Yon1erS and known
as the Empire is considered by horsemen
the remedy for the laying up of heats in
harness races. The plan consists of best
twe. IN three for the money in the final
neat, SO that man has to win first or
second to get in the money and cam
not LAY up see -f'tst..
1t is confidently predicted that this will
be the scheme on the grand circuit
courses or a majority of them by next
season all along the line, and it looks
like a successful idea well worth the
trying.

Annapolis Cadets Are Anxious to Regain
Former Prestige at Football

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Sept. 29.-The feel
ing is growing at the Naval academy
that this season will mark the return Of
the football team to the standing held in
former years. Already the larger part
of last years team men have cut their
vacation short and are on the field every
afternoon This break into the vacation
means something at the academy, for the
vacation only lasts a month
Capt. Farley, last years right tackle,
returned Wednesday,, and. old men who
are practically sure of a place and who
are here are Goss, center; Chambers, left
guard; Whiting and Howard, ends; Will
cox, quarter, and Root, half. In addition
to the old men who have returned there
are two men in the fourth class who will
undoubtedly make the first team. These
are Pearsol and Douglass.
The showing of Douglass; the new
back, during the preliminary practice has
been most satisfactory. He is back
of the line breaking type, weighing 1870
pounds and very strong.
A notable incident of the week has been
the fact that the navy has decided that
1T cannot rely entirely on amateur coach
ing. as is the rule at West Point and
which was wished here. Dr. Paul j.
Dashiell will act as head coach, but it
has been found impossible to have a suffi-
cient number of young naval officers
former stars of navy teams, to be de-
tailed at Annapolis to assist him. and
outside help had to be procured in the
person of Herman Oicutt the former Yale
guard and center, who is now in Annap-
oils.
