The violin concert given by William
wallace Graham, assisted by Mrs.
Albert G. Sheldon, at the opera house
last evening, was the musical treat of
the season, and was thoroughly an.
preciated by those who were fortu.
nate enough to attend.
Mr.. Graham displayed wonderful
talent, and his numbers, though of
the most difficult arrangement. were
executed in manner worthy of a mas
ter. Every rendition brought forth a
storm of applause, and each time the
bow wizard was forced to reappear
and make due Acknowledgement. Soft.
crashing, wierd, enchanting, yet ever
melodious, the tones filled the large
auditorium with their sweetness and
purity. Mrs. Sheldon has a strong
soprano voice capable of reaching a
very high register, and preserving it's
volume. She was heard in seven
numbers, all captivating and pleasing
Her rendition of "You and |" ami
ave Marie" were especially beauti.
full
Mrs. Warren E. Thomas, the ac-
companiest, executed the difficult
compositions with ease and grace.
The musicloving people of Salem
will be pleased to be favored with a
return concert of these talented mu
sicians, and until that time will look
back to last evening as a new stand
ard for musical entertainments.

Good Spirits.


Good spirits don't all come from
Kentucky. Their main source is the
liver-and all the fine spirits ever
made in the Blue Grass state could
not remedy a bad liver or the hundred

can't have good spirits and a bad
liver at the same time. Your liver
must be in fine condition If you would
feel buoyant, happy and hopeful,
bright of eye, light OF step, vigorous
and successful in your pursuits. You
can put your liver in fine condition by
using Green's August Flower-the
greatest of all medicines for the liver
and stomach and a certain cure for
dyspepsia or indigestion. 1t has been
a favorite household remedy for over
thirty-fve years August Flower will

INDIANA
DEMOCRATS
DUBIOUS
About Whom TO Give Their
Support for the PreSi-
dency

indianapolis, Ind, May 12.-The
eyes of Democats throughout the
land are turned toward indianapolis
today and ears are kept close to the
ground to learn what action Indiana,
the pivotal state" will take in re-
gard to the Democratic standard bear
er to be named at st. Louis in July.
The Republicans of this state held
but one convention this year but the
Democrats thought it wiser to hold
two. The convention in session in
Tomlinson hall today will confine it's
work to the selection of delegates to
the national convention. A second
convention will be held for the nomi-
nation of state officers in July.
A few weeks ago it looked as II
the Parker men would have a walk
over in Indiana, but later develop
ments have materially changed the
aspect of things. Thomas Taggart,
national committeeman and leader of
the movement in Indiana for Judge
Parker as nominee of the Democratic
party for president. was firm in the
belief month ago that Indiana would
send a delegation to st. Louis in
structed to vote for Parker. State
Chairman OBrien, John w. Kern and
other leaders of the conservative ele-
ment shared this belief. Now it looks
as though they will be satisfied If
they succeed in defeating Hearts in
struction.
There was an understanding among
the Parker men that either instruct
ions or the unit rule would be adopted
in order to insure a solid vote for
Parker, but the utterances of Bryan
against the New York platform and
the fight thta Hearst has put up
throughout the state have caused
many to think that the national con.
vention should look outside of both
Hearst and Parker for a nominee
The opinion is expressed that per-
haps Indiana had better be in a posi-
tion to lead off for another candidate
than to have her hands tied with in
structions for any candidate.
The Hearts lieutenants are working
with might and main for an instruct
ed delegation. It is believed, how
ever, that they will be perfectly salts
fled if they can succeed in preventing
tho adoption of the unit rule, as such
action on the part of the convention
would be regarded as a Hearst victory.

IT'S YET HANDS OFF.

Woa!d Smile oil

Ga toe Associated Press J

Washington, June 90.-While the
officials heire are satisfied from their
private advices that the recent visit
of King Edward to his nephew, En-
peror William. was not brought about
by a pltfpose to initiate a movement
toward lthe restoration of peace be-
tween Russia and Japan, there is rea-
son to believe that some very careful
and discreet inquiries as to the OPP
portunitieS of some such oVertureS at
this time have emanated from Wash
ington. III may be stated that the re-
suit has been to disclose the fact that
neither of the belligerent powers is
yet in q humor to sue for peace nor
even to entertain overtures from any
third power on that subject.
1t cannot be said that the situation
is changed from what it was a month
ago, saving the fact that there is a
more optimistic feeling in official
Quarters that there will soon be an
opening for diplomacy to exercise its
peaceful. methods in the Far Eastern
truggle.

Leads all NORTH Carolina Daies i'm News and Circulation

The real object of the Republicans is
to weaken the Democratic vote in
Congress and in the electoral college,
and therefore they seek to cut down
Southern representation in these two
bodies without reducing that of Mass
achusetts Connecticut, Oregon and
other States which disfranchise their
citizens upon exactly the same reasons
as adopted in the South The Repub-
licans would make it appear a great
CRIME to refuse an illiterate and ig-
norant negro in the South the right of
suffrage, yet New England and other
Northern States think it a part of
their civilization to have upon the
statute books laws forbidding suffrage
TO the ignorant white man. Oregon
and other Pacific Coast States are
permitted to protect their civilization
against the peril of the yellow invader.
but the Republicans of the North
threaten the South with reduction of
representation in Congress because we
see fit to protect our homes and in
stitutions against the enthronement of
the negro.
Il would like to utter q word of
warning to the business men in the
Republican party. This plank in their
platform will will result in direct in
jury to their business interest. In the
words of our able floor leader, John
Sharpe Williams, let me warn them
to prepare for another period of un-
certainty, unrest, business disturbances
and race war in the Southern States.
instead of that peace and prosperity
which both races now enjoy, and
which has been rendered possible only
by home rule and white supremacy. l
do not agree with some people who
say that this plank is a mere bait to
catch the negro vote and that it will
have no effect whatever. If the peo-
pie of this country adopt the Re-
publican platform this fall, the negro
of the South will feel that he has the
backing of the Republican party, and
will become more insolent and disre-
snectful.
There can be but one result lead
ing from the adoption of the Repub-
lican platform. The white people will
not be effected. Always and eternally,
with the spirit of the Anglo-SaXon
race, which has never bent to an in
ferior race, they will uphold them
selves.
1.-The people most injured will be
the negro himself, and business, agri-
culture manufacturing, commerce in
general, will be injured to such an ex-
tent that it will take years to rebuild
it,

oueer stories by Men of the Destroyer
(By the Associated Press.)


New Chwang. June 30.-The Rus
sian torpedo boat destroyer Lieuten-
ant Burukoff. arrived here from Port
Arthur yesterday evening and is
berthed alongside the gunboat
Sivouch. The river bank was soon
crowded with excited natives. who
were told by the Russians that the
Japanese fleet had been completely
destroyed.
The officers of the Lieutenant Buru-
koff tell several stories. One is that
Admiral Togo's report of the fighting
was exaggerated, and that the Rus
! slams have sunk two cruisers in the
AIlf of Pe-Chi-Li in five days.
Another story is that the Port Ar
fleet has joined the Vladivostock
lron.
y correspondent of the Asso-
Rted Press sent a messenger who
speaks Russian. to the side OF the
destroyer. but the Russian sailors
would not talk, except to say that they
left Port Arthur Tuesday night.
Every inch of the boat was crowded
with men, She had the appearance OF
having been in a general engagement,
her bow gun having been shot away,
and il looked as if she had rescued
MANY men. The Lieutenant Burukoff
is one of the torpedo boat destroyers
taken from the Chinese at Taku IN
1900. The general belief here is that
she ran Admiral Togo's blockade anu
came here with dispatches for the army
and for St. Petersburg. This is quite
natural. as two Cossack officers were
on board.
