the Democrats within five votes of a
majority in the lower house.
With a majority Of eleven in tie
senate, the Democrats are assured Of
the control in joint convention OF
both branches of the legislature,
which will elect United States SEN
ator to succeed Senator Eugene Hale.
The Republicans have elected 81
representatives in districts thus far
complete. The Democratic leaders
expressed confidence that returns
from the remaining 20 representa-
tive districts would give a secure
Democratic majority In the house.
With but four representative dis
tricts to be completed at 1.30 p. m.
Tuesday, the Democrats have elected
"a representatives and the Repub-
licans 63.
The two Democratic Congressman
elected went in by 1000 and 5000
maiorities respectively, while the
two Republican Congressman had on
ly 200 and 800 majorities respective
ly in the districts they carried. A
change of few hundred votes would
have given the Democrats all four

ON TRAIL OF GOLD.
Scores of Detectives Search for the
Stolen Bars.

"A score of detectives have been
set to work in Alaska to- trace the
s57,50O in gold ingots stolen in tran
sit on the steamer Humboldt from
the Washington-Alaska bank of Fair
banks, Alaska, to the Dexter-Horton
National bank of Seattle.
The ship makes several stops en-
route to Seattle and the steamship
officials say that the robbers may
have left the boat at one of the in
termediate points. The looted box
had not been roughly broken open
Apparently the thieves had removed
one side by use of a nail puller.
The bank and express company OIL
ficials interested express the conVic-
ton that the robbery occurred before
the steamship HUMBOLDT arrived at
Seattle. The Canadian customs OIL
cials are supposed to have unpacked
the entire consignment and exam1n-
ed II at Dawson. From that point
to the assay office at Seattle, dis
tance of probably 1,400 miles, the
boxes passed without more than cas-
ual scrutiny.

TENNESSEE DEMOCRATS BUSY.

"A dispatch from Nashville says

every section of the State. Various
theories and suggestions are advanc-
ed in connection with the perplexing
political problems brought about by
Governor Patterson's withdrawal
from the Gubernatorial race. But is
S all chaos and none can safely pre-
dict the outcome.
The Independent Convention on
Wednesday will stand by the leaders
agreement and endorse Hooper, the
Republican nominee, seems now as
sured, but the question Of the voters
attitude is still open. monday in
Sumner County, public meeting Of
the Democratic committee and voters
adopted resolutions suggesting plan
for selecting a Democratic candidate
that both factions could support, and
it is understood that similar meet
ings are planned in other counties.
Such suggestions have been con-
sidered by men prominent in both
factions, but it is said that the inde-
pendent leaders are holding to their
compact, charging that Patterson's
step is but scheme to hold off the
Legislature. Until the State commit
tee meets nothing tangible will be
known.

WE'LL MAKE GOOD HIS JOKE.
Champ Clark Likely to Drive Mules
in Washington.

Champ Clark has declared that II
he is elected speaker Of the next
house of representatives he will
drive a team Of Missouri mules down
Pennsylvania avenue. Many people
in Washington believe he will have
to carry out his promise.
Mr.. Clark, in speaking to a num-
of his fellow citizens at Mobley, Mo-,
stated that Missouri has been con-
tent with q backseat long enough.
The State has never had President,
a vice-president, a justice Of the su-
preme court, or a speaker Of the
house. "And I am going to see to
it," said the minority leader, that
she gets one Of these offices at once.
He fully expects the next House
to be Democratic, and If it is, he will
be Its presiding officer. Champ
Clark is as Democratic in his manner
as he is in his politics, and he Is
just the type of man to carry out
his threat to ride behind team Of
Missouri mules down Washington's
famous thoroughfare if he is elected.
or course, incidentally, there is a
bit of advertising for the mules, and
for Champ, in getting off such a
statement, and having the papers
print it. 1t is said that he was un-
able to proceed with his speech for
some minutes after he made this
promise, so great was the applause
that greeted his words.

WILL DO THEIR DUTY
SENATOR SIMMONS OPTIMISTIC
ABOUT HIS STATE.
After Going Over the Situation He
Regards the Outlook as Very Fav.
orable to the Democrats.

"A Raleigh, N. c., dispatch says
United States Senator F. NJ Simmons
has returned to Newbern and mis-
Jones county farm after spending
two days there with State Chairman
A. H. Eller, of the Democratic exec
utive committee, at the State head
quarters.
The Senator came at the special re-
quest of Chairman Eller to go over
the situation and map out the work
of the campaign, the council and adj
vice of the Senator being especially
valued.
The Senator says he regards the
political situation as very favorable
to the Democrats in North Carolina.
He thinks there is more interest and
enthusiasm among the Democrats of
the State at this time than there
has been in six or seven years.
He believes that desire to re-
Duke the effort of Marion Butler to
take q hand in politics again will
help to bring out the fullest sort of
a Democratic vote.
He says he believes that in fully
one-third of the counties Of the State
the Republicans have failed to put
out their best men for the offices and
this, with the recognized scarcity OF
men in Republican ranks capable
of giving the best government to the
people, will certainly deter any pos
sibly dissatisfied Democrat from go
ing over to the Republicans.
He says he sees no reason to eX-
pect the change in the Republican
party management to gain any votes.
In fact, he expects the change to
have deteriorating effect as many,
in the Republican ranks even, just
will not stand for the dominating In
luepce of Butler over Chairman
Morehead.

Will use TaE AIR
TO MANUFACTURE COMMERCIAL
FERTILIZERS FROM
The First Plant in the Country to
Be Built in South Carolina in the

Near Future.
The first plant in the United States
to manufacture commercial fertili-
zers from the atmosphere will be
established at Great Falls, S. G. The
announcement comes from the South
ern Power company that 1000
horsepower plant is to be built at
once at that place, where is located
the site of the: great hydro-electrica1
development OF the company.
It is good to think that South Car
oline will be the. pioneer State in the
manufacture ofr:'this product, which
has long since passed the experiment
tai stage, for, there are now plants
of this character in Norway and
Austria, which have demonstrated
the success of the process and which
are now manufacturing in market
able quantities fertilizers and nitro
gen compounds.
That the Southern Power Com
pany1 is confident of it's ability to
carry through the scheme success
fully is evidenced by the fact that a
second great plant Of 24,000-horse-
power is under construction for the
same pupose-the manufacture of
comm ercial fertilizer from the at
mosphere.
The dream of the ages, to discov-
er the philosophers stone whereby
baser metal might be turned into
gold, is now thing of the past. The
evolution Of a process whereby gold
might be converted from the very air
is something, that has the philoso-
piers stone eclipsed 40 city blocks.
The Southern Power Company has
been working on this great scheme
for years; in fact, ever since the
great hydro-electrical =, development
became verify. w. s. Lee, who has
immediate supervision IT the plans,
went abroad two years ago, spending
some time in Geneva, Switzerland,
investigating the details Of the well
known Geneva process" which the
Southern Power company has acquir-
ed by purchase. Another process has
also been secured, one that is said to
be even superior to the Geneva pro-
cess in that IT. is more commercially
feasible. These two great processes
will be used in the projected develop
ment at Great Falls.

PIRATES HOLD UP STEAMER.
Overcome Crew, Kill Owners and
Then Escaped.

A band of brigands, disguised as

er south cs Harbin, Manchuria, on

passengers.
In attempting to defend their yes
sci the owners, two Russians, were

When the pirates were in control
of the situation they bound the pas

and two Russian women, and took
the valuables Of the captives at their
leisure.
4 boat load of hunters who hap
pened to be in the vicinity gave the
alarm and a Russian gunboat was
sent in pursuit of the outlaws.
