WILL Be BEATEN
Capt. Price Says Black :
burn is Doomed.
Believes a Majority of the Substantial
Republicans Will Scratch and
That Blackburn Will be
Defeated.
Salisbury SUM

Capt. Charles Price, of Salisbury, who
was during McKinley's administration
prominently mentioned for vacancy on
the United States Supreme Court bench,
expressed yesterday afternoon in an inter
view with a Sun reporter unqualified hos
tility to the candidacy of E. Spencer
Blackburn, who claims to have been regu-
larly nominated at Wilkesboro last week.
Capt. Price reviewed the causes leading
up to the candidacy of his son, A. H.
Price, ESQ. assistant district attorney or
Western North Carolina and said:
Mr.. Henry C. Cowles, Clerk of the
Federal Court, came to my house and told
me that Blackburn commanded no conf
dence and that he would not support him
under any circumstances. He further
said that the only solution was the nomi-
nation of A. Fl. Price. In two weeks he
had so much encouragement through let
ters received from all parts OF the dis
trict that he decided 20 announce his
candidacy. After he came out ! wrote
to Mr. Cowles to know what he would
DO. / wrote four different times but have
never heard from him yet. Gus saw him,
however and he was assured that lredelI
county was all right. You know what the
result was. At this time DR.. J. } Mott
told me that Cowles was doing all he
could AGAINST him
1.-THE so-called nomination at Wilkes
boro was forced by crowd, many OF
whom were revenue cut-throats. There
are enough men in this district who won t
stand for thing of this kind who will ac-
complish Blackburn $ defeat.
ff, oil
CATION made by Blackburn that Gus had
tndeavored to use the influence Of his of
fee to intimidate supporters of Blackburn,
Walter RurraGe, who is indicted IN the
Federal Court for retailing and removing
liquor, saw Blackburn and told him that
one Davis, a revenue officer, had advised
him Burragel Of the improperly OF
taking any hand in this contest. At
Wilkesboro Gus took Blackburn into a
room and demanded an apology, which
was granted. In4the convention all that
Blackburn said was that he accepted
Gus's denial Later Gus went to Greens
boro and notified Blackburn that if a
written apology was not made he would
castigate him. Then followed thu card
which appeared in the Sun, which both
Gus and myself regard as worse than the
original charge Another demand upon
Blackburn resulted in his writing the
apology which was published in the Sun
Thursday"
"WIll you actively oppose Blackburn
u certainly win Under no circum-
stances would I vote for him but shall
give what influence have to any oppon-
emit
"Wbat effect do Won think his conduct
will have On his yotc?'
"Hc viii get about twice as many
votes as he received in the primaries and
st few others hut he will no. receive half
as lnany votes as he did in 1902. Ten out
of every twelve of the substantial Re
pubisans will refuse to support him and
there is not the remotest possibility Of
his election"

He has been successful in the manage

Glenn For Governor.

To the Editor: A few words about R
B. Glenn, If you please. He is asking the
Democrats OF North Carolina to nominate
nim for Governor and his candidacy chal-
lcnges attention. Would he be a suit
able candidate for the party to name?
Has he served the party faithfully in the
Iast? Would he make an aggressive and
successful Governor? All OF those ques-
tons. I think, should be answered in the
Affirmative.
He Is now in the prime of a vigorous
manhood and has the strength to make a
complete and thorough canvass of the en-
tire State He is conversant with Ma
tonal and State politics and is a most
ready debater. He knows how to reach
the masses AS a stump speaker he has
no superior and, in a rough and tumble
fight, he has fewV equals. He would en-
thuse the voters and help to roll up
big majority for the Democratic nominee
for President
Has he served his party in the past?
He began in 1875 and has been in every
campaign since. AS elector at large in
iS92 we all remember his magnificent can.
vass of the State. In 1894 and 1896, when
Populism and Fusion were rampant and
when so many Democrats were leaving
their party, Glenn went against the popu-
lar current and everywhere proclaimed
with fervor and eloquence the gospel of
true Democracy. In those dark days the
Democratic party in North Carolina was
sorely in need of champion and de,
fender to meet the leaders of the opposi-
ton. A great many well-known Dep,c-
Gratis, men who had been conspicuous
Low
yers, doctors, even preachers-had gone
over to the combined forces of Fusion and
were waging a relentless war On their
former party Butler was marching
through the State unopposed, denouncing
the Democratic party and its leaders. To
abuse Democrats was the popular thing
to do at that time. Those who were true
to Democracy-those who could not be
led astray by popular wave OF error
were indeed blue" Then it was that
the clarion voice of r. B. Glenn put
courage in the weak, confidence IN the
wagering and rallied our scattered and de-
noralized forces. He was terror to
Butler and Pritchards pie crowd and
they will never forgive him. But many
of those who cheered and shouted for
Butler in the Glenn-Butler canvass are
row advocating Glenn for Governor.
They have lived to see his predictions
about Butler come true.
In 1898, although nominated for the
State Senate by the counties OF Rowan,
Davidson and Forsyth, he put himself at
the disposal of the State committee and
canvassed almost the entire State for the
An endment. The East especially should
remember his abors i'm that campaign

Durham, n. c., April 1.-THE new vac
cination laws are being rigidly enforced,
and within a few days, when the time
limit expires, the police will begin to ar
rest all men and women who refuse to be
vaccinated. AS an evidence of the deter
minaton of the officers and municipal au-
thorities in this matter boarding house
was today rented by the police depart
ment in which to conflne women who re-
fuse to be yaccinated. The men will be
sent to the rock pile and the county roads

Ioois as if there has been a battle in this
section. About one out of three person
have their arms in sings and the others
shy when they meet friend on the
street, fearing that he will be greeted
with slap on the arm.
There has been considerable opposition
to vaccination by some of the citizens
but it looks as ii all this is giving away
to reason and common sense. There is
smallpox in Durham, much of it. While
the cases, practically all of them, are of Il
mild form, still the contagion is here.
The entire medical fraternity are out
working for the determination of the
disease Each ward has certain physl
cians assigned and these a;e deputies.
They have the power to arrest. The

Taken as a whole the situation is now
much better than it was ten ilavs ago
and the health authorities are happy in
the thought that they will soon extermt
nate the contagion.

II has come to be estabEshed and well

external applications alone. 1t is however con-

cation of soothing and penetrating linament is
of the greatest assistance in bringing about a
cure. Rheumatism is blood disease and must

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE frequenters Of
the stock exchange changed their position
in the market today and SOLD stocks, in
contrast to the buying of yesterday, or
rather the party which bought yesterday
had not courage TO continue his opera
ton, while the opponents who had sold
at the advance yesterday saw a profit
in offering down prices and proceeded
accordingly. They had rather more sue
cess in maintaining the declines to the
end Of the day than did the bulls yester-
day.
The extreme dullness of the market
ana the complaints of all commission
houses of lack of sufficient business to
pay Office expenses warrants the assump-
ton that operations are exclusively in
professional hands While various news
items of the day are offered to explain
the varying movements of prices, it is
Gear that the movements represent the
ideas of professional traders as TO the
change in values resulting from occur
rences rather than actual transactions
in liquidation or in investment.
Some of the stocks offered were pro-
duced by the whispers sent around tho
the heavy drop in cotton ana conse-
quent speculative losses were going to
result in financial troubles. These ru-
mors were without verihcatiOn. The diff
ficuties of some of the insurance COM
panies involved in the Baltimore iite
awakened attention to the possible af-
termath of that calamity.
Germany contributed story that the
Russian government was taking stiff
attitude toward the British government
regarding the expedition into Thibet and
foreign stock markets seemed ID be
moved by news of an Albanian revolt
Whatever share these various incidents
may have had in the days decline, 1t
was obvious that many operators were
prompted mainly by the consideration
that yesterdays attempt to life prices
had proved abortive. so that the move
ment downward was unmistakabie.
