By all medicine dealers. trary, the democrats lined up every voter and made him say where he stood. He had to take a stand either with the decent whites or against them. The non-commit tal w hite was regarded with suspicion and ostracised. This brought many of them over. The white women have been with the demo crats everywhere. Their security was at stake, and that cartoon which The Consti tution published October 2d, representing the white womanhood of this state appeal ing to the white man’s ballot for protection against the cloud of black domination ris ing above the horizon typified Hie exact condition. By (lie way, the democratic leaders say that it was the most effective cartoon they hail, and that is saying a great deal, because young Jennette, of this city, contributed many striking pictures to the campaign. The democrats got the advantage of their opponents at the start by devoting the first thirty days to quiet, systematic educational work. They went at the pop ulist witii the proposition that lhe and the democrats bad many principles in com mon, while ho had none in common with the republicans. This was a truth which the populist recognized, and ho had drift ed far from the republican anchorage be fore Pritchard, Russell, 'Thompson an 1 that outfit realized what was going on.

The democrats did not retort in kind. They made their light on issues, not on men. The Constitution’s Part.

Tia n early in Octobar The ("onstitiition publish ed a series of letters from the black belt counties, tollowing it with a review of the whole situation. .More than 5.1,000 copies of The t'mistitution were circulated in North Carolina. The, weekly in'ws|iaiiers here, w.t a a combined circulation of -1.1.0'i0. re p. ,-d u, and tin- democrats' campaign committee had 50,000 . epics pH in cir- cular form and distribm' d.

He has realized for a long time that the people hate him, and lias kept a shotgun or a pistol in the exec utive oiru.i' to defend himself.

No one can now saj r how too negro vote will be regulated, but few ' 'll doubt that there will be legu lation, iirm but. kindly. The fact that in the ovet whelming democratic majority in the legis ■' tut■ there are many of Hie . in tl ■ evidence that the best thought will be given the subject. There is a settl' d determination that tltertt is an en<i to tiie holding' of ofiieial positions by negroes. Tonight it is positively asserted at demo cratic. headquarters that tiie democrats have sure forty-one senators out of the fifty and may gain four others. As t'.iairman Simmons says: ■I, : ,11'tU'Hl.' flb'iilt lo smd a republi- can senator in the east." It is further asserted that, the democrats ba.ve ninety-four members of the lower house and may get three more. The lat- st news at democratic headquar ters shows that the hope that White, negro republican congressman in the second district, had been beaten by Fountain was delusive. Everything hinged on Halifax county, and White got. 1,500 majoritv there, while the democratic county and legislative tickets had 1,000 majority. White is, therefore, elected by about 1,500. Llnney's majority in the eighth Is under 1,000. Thomas, democrat., carries the third by over 500. Onslow was tiie county which settled the question. It gave 500 democratic tnapor ity—a gain of 325. Lovell, democrat, is defeated by small majority in the eighth district by Linney. All the Other districts are democratic. As to the second district, if the democratic tickets with Fountain’s name on them reae lied the precincts in time and thus enable him to run anything like even with tho democratic county tickets his election 1- assured by a good figure notw ithstanding Loyd, tho populist dummy candidate, drew off malty white votes Fowler's d< feat by Thoma-, democrat, in Hie third is .sure. Fowler got majorities and those slender in only tvto counties. 'While in the fourth district Atwater, indeendent. populist, indorsed by tiie democrats, has stt b a.-t 1200 majority. Kitchen carried the li. It by over 2,ot<>, while in the sixth Bellamy has over 0,000 majority, having carried every county. Als to the first ■distri.u, Barry SkinneFs majority of only one in Pasquotank, tho biggest republican coun ts In the district, assured the election of Small, democrat. Kluttz, democrat, has •I* least 4,000 majority in the seventh, Crawford, democrat, t.Ooo in the ninth. There is 'no sort of doubt that the six democratic judges are elected and cer tainly eleven of the twelve solicitors and almost certainly the round dozen. Dorsey Battle. of Tarboro, democrat, deltats Thomas H. iSutton, republican, for the eastern criminal court judgeship by at least 3,000. Tiie republican and populist chairmen concede that the democrats carried every thing. R, publican headquarters ceased to exist Hr-, afternoon, Chairman Holton gong home to Winston. Governor Russell returned this morning from Wilmington, where, he voted yester day. While his train was at Maxton, Ex ecutive Clerk Fowlo says there was a crowd of 100 "Red Shirts,” some of whom marched through the car. Fowle was with tho governor and says the statements that the governor was attacked or that any violence -was attempted toward him was untrue; that the Red Shirts were mostly good-natured and not hilarious men, who were In for a good time; that while there were a few ugly spirits, the ruling element was perfectly good-natured, and that the governor did not resent anything said, but took it good naturedly. Private Secretary Cado says there was no assault at all and the stories that tho governor was punched and slapped and his ears pulletl are false. Suclt stories were widely current and made the democrats here indignant at the sup posed perpetrators. There is great and general pleasure at tiie refutation ot these stories.
