THE PEACE CONGRESS
OF NORTH CAROLINA
The President Was Present in Spirit
If Not in the Flesh.

Greensboro, oct. 1.-THE North
Carolina peace congress opened today
in the great auditorium purchased
from the jamestown exposition in the
presence of a large audience. At the
opening session the following message
from President Roosevelt was read
Wish 1 could be present at your
congress. As it is impossible TO do so
may l express through you to those as
sembled assurance of my hearty sym
pathy and my hope Of a ..Iccessful
meeting"
In connection with this letter there
were read the remarks the president
made to the delegation which called
upon him to ask his attendance. The
president was quoted as follows: Il
am glad to learn that the North Caro-
lima peace society has declared itself
favorable to armament as well as to
effective arbitration. There is no in
consistency in advocating both these
things at the present time. On the con-
trary, those who have the public well
fare at heart have failed in the per-
formance of a part of their duty if
they neglect to labor for both. The
growth of acceptance by the people Of
international arbitration is necessarily
slow While we should do all we can
to hasten it, remember that the ac-
ceptance of this principle in any meas
ure whatever depends exclusively upon
the effective support it receives from a
half dozen powers of great warlike
strength As things actually are at
the present day we are helpless to fur
ther the cause of peace and effective
international arbitration unless to just
and peaceable intentions we add
stout heart and a strong ARMAND
this means a military and preparation
to a greater degree than is at present
the case"

,hich gave the game to Detroit.

which gave the game to Detroit.
The gray clad tigers, two runs be-
hind Chicago when the inning opened,
came across the plate in a procession.
The crowd, except a minority from De
troit, which enjoyed the proceedings
pleaded for the retirement
Of Pfeister. Manager Chance, who
failed to show any traces of displeas-
ure at the way Detroit came up from
behind and went ahead, smiled cheer
fully and ignored the request.
Tyrus Cobb, the idol of the Detroit
whose playing was a great
disappointment a year ago, came into
his own today. He batted like the
natural hitter he is, and ran bases
like a flash His batting average for
the day was 500. Out of five times up
he hit safely four times. Others whose
work contributed to the victory were
O'Leary, Crawford and Rossman, each
of whom made two hits, although
Rossman and OLeary were both
with errors.
To Mullen, however, the greatest
credit was awarded by the spectators.
Even in the fourth, when all three of
Chicago's runs were scored, he never
faltered; his nerve remained steady;
his arm strong and his control excel
lent. The only base on balls which
he allowed was turned into a ru bny
Chicago.
Despite the fact that the sun shone
brightly today and the temperature
was higher than yesterday, only
14.453 paid admissions were registered
at the various turnstiles, netting total
receipts of $22,S67.

No Pessimistic Note

Members of the Democratic league

cons at the Westminster hotel.
The attendance was as large as DUR

note of encouragement in the CONVEX
sation that passed before, during and
after the spread which has been a
fixed function for months.
Most of the Democratic county COM

Isidore B. Dockweiler and County
Chairman Albert M. Norton on the
future of the party
The speakers said the election had
come and gone, but Democratic prin-
ciples would live forever.
The organization we'll started in the
past three months would be perfected
for the coming city campaign.
Here and there weak spots would be
filled by better and more energetic
workers and the partys principles
would be carried forward on the old
lines.
The speakers urged the committee
men to let nothing interrupt their
weekly gatherings and the interest In
committee work so that there need be
no lag or lapse in the work of keeping
the Democratic vote in line for coming
events.

LAUNCH U.S.S.
NORTH DAKOTA
UNCLE SANS GREATEST WAR
SHIP CHRISTENED
Is Most Powerful Battleship of Dread
naught Type and Marks New
E poch in Construction
of Naval Vessels
tBy Associated Press.1

QUINCY, Mass, Nov. 10.-The most
powerful addition which the navy OF
the United Staes has ever received,
an American first all-round big gun
battleship, the North Dakota, was sue
cessfully launched today from the yard
of the Fore River Shipbuilding COM
pany.
With the foam of the christening
wine streaming down her bow plates
from the bottle smashed by Miss Mary
Benton OF Fargo, N. D., and under the
watchful eye of Governor John Burke
of the state for which she is named
the North Dakota fioated off into the
basin, about so per cent completed.
Some time next autumn she Will be
turned over to the government Tor ac-
ceptance, and if she fulfills the tests,
will go into commission next Septem-
ber.
The North Dakota is looked upon by
naval experts as establishing a new
epoch in battleship construction.
The battleship North Dakota is the
first American vessel of the Dread
naught class. When her great PROV
struck the waters of Fore river the
United states received formally the
bulky weight of the first fighting snip
of the best known type of war vessel.
AS the massive hull of the North
Dakota stood on the ways ready for
launching it presented none of the war
like appearances Of the finished battle
ship. Save for few temporary httlngs
the decks were bare and lacking the
martial aspect supplied by the great
guns and secondary batteries. which
are to be installed later Even the
great boilers of the fighting ship have
not been installed.
The armament is to consist of ten
12-inch breech-loading, long range RI
fes. fourteen 5-inch rapid firing guns,
four 3-pound and a like number or
1-pound semi-automatic guns, two g.
inch field pieces, two machine guns OF
60-caliber, and two 1-ineh submerged
torpedo tubes.
10000 Tons Displacement
The battleship will have displace-.
ment of 10000 tons, 1000 in excess OF
the original British Dreadnaught. 1t Is
estimated that a speed of more than
twenty-one knots will be attained on
her trial, and that the battleship' S
horsepower will exceed $4,000.
Including officers, the crew will num-
ber more than 900 men. 1t is estimated
that when formally taken over by the
government the North Dakota VIII
have cost at least $7,000,O0O.
To Capt. Charles ]. Badger, u. s. NJ,
recently superintendent of the naval
academy at Annapolis, will go the nom
or of being the first commanding officer
of the premier Dreadnaught of the
United States navy.
More than 10000 people, including
representatives of two states and OF
the national government, gathered at
the yards to witness the Launching.
While the North Dakota follows
nearly a dozen great vessels launched
at the Fore River yards, her advent
into the sea today was regarded as es-
tablishing new epoch because of her
strength both on the attack and on the
defense, by the additional thickness OF
her armor-eight inches-and by the
fact that she is the first all Dig gun
ship of the navy.
