A correspondent desired a every post Id Pitt and counties. <lb/>
Ml i to <lb/>
Pitt County, N. C, <lb/>
1904. <lb/>
It seems easy enough to make Port <lb/>
Arthur fall, it to stay down <lb/>
is else. <lb/>
If the law was <lb/>
there would hands at work <lb/>
on public roads and fewer loafers. <lb/>
is getting up in the <lb/>
world. The latest sensation there <lb/>
was a highway in broad <lb/>
daylight. <lb/>
The killing of one by <lb/>
in county, Sunday morn- <lb/>
over the sum five cents, <lb/>
the cheapness of human life. <lb/>
If this thing of educating horses <lb/>
and dogs keeps up we will hear of a <lb/>
movement for an appropriation by <lb/>
for establishment of schools <lb/>
and colleges for these animals <lb/>
Wilmington Messenger. <lb/>
We are not advocating such <lb/>
but it would be money <lb/>
about as well spent as that put in <lb/>
the heads some folks. <lb/>
It is not likely that any other <lb/>
but John H. Small will be <lb/>
for nomination at the <lb/>
convention at Edenton <lb/>
t morrow. <lb/>
If they don't hurry up and settle <lb/>
a Japanese Russian scrap before <lb/>
. political campaign over here gets <lb/>
runs, our people will lose all inter- <lb/>
est in iv t. <lb/>
King Edward's order that trouser <lb/>
shall now have four creases is a <lb/>
hard one on the dudes. We wonder <lb/>
w bow legs will set in the four <lb/>
cornered affairs. <lb/>
I. L. Smith, of Gates, has the <lb/>
of his county for the <lb/>
nomination for judge of the first <lb/>
district. The convention will meet <lb/>
ii tomorrow. <lb/>
The republican leaders me taking <lb/>
more interest in what tin democrat <lb/>
are doing than in what they at e <lb/>
doing themselves lint it is all <lb/>
right to be looking over to the <lb/>
winning side. <lb/>
P B. former <lb/>
at Raleigh, notifies the liquor <lb/>
dealers association that he is not <lb/>
with them and does not take any <lb/>
stock in such an organization. He <lb/>
was placed on the executive commit- <lb/>
tee at the meeting held here this <lb/>
week, at which he enters a vigorous <lb/>
kick. He says he is a Democrat and <lb/>
proposes to remain one, liquor or no <lb/>
Record. <lb/>
So Marion Butler is coming back <lb/>
to North as a Republican <lb/>
to canvass the State for Roosevelt. <lb/>
Since he was profited to point <lb/>
that he can afford it, he is now <lb/>
coming out under his true colors. <lb/>
But did you ever Bee that <lb/>
bobbing of Butler's head when <lb/>
he thinks he is nailing an argument <lb/>
to the home plate That is one of <lb/>
the most amusing things about him. <lb/>
Wilmington Star. <lb/>
Keck Your Had Drown. <lb/>
If every knew that it is <lb/>
to sink if one keeps his <lb/>
arms under water and moves his legs <lb/>
as if lie were going upstairs, and <lb/>
that one may keep this motion up <lb/>
for hours before fatigue ends it, there <lb/>
would be few casualties. Such is <lb/>
the fact. Except where cramp <lb/>
motion impossible, tho man <lb/>
involuntary ducking has <lb/>
small chance of drowning. He can <lb/>
generally keep afloat until rescuers <lb/>
The people who drown are <lb/>
those who frantically wave their <lb/>
arms out of water and loose their <lb/>
a year past a profess- <lb/>
to be a prophet has been predict- <lb/>
that Wilmington would be de- <lb/>
by fire August 1904. So <lb/>
superstitious had the become <lb/>
over this prediction, that on Sunday <lb/>
they poured out of the city by train <lb/>
loads to get away from the coming <lb/>
doom. But the by the <lb/>
goes on doing business at the same <lb/>
stand and the deluded <lb/>
like to run up with the pro-<lb/>
The primary idea wherever it has <lb/>
been tried fills far short of being <lb/>
We fail to see the <lb/>
of holding two or three <lb/>
to elect candidates once. It <lb/>
has been the good old custom for <lb/>
to hold conventions and <lb/>
candidates, then go to the <lb/>
on election day and vote for <lb/>
them But some of the present day <lb/>
day plans first hold an election <lb/>
to tee who gets the moat votes, then <lb/>
hold the convention to nominate <lb/>

Election forecasts, nearly three <lb/>

put too fine a point upon <lb/>
inconclusive; but speculation is at <lb/>
least interesting, and when indulged <lb/>
by anything like an intelligent <lb/>
authority mast command a certain <lb/>
amount of attention. The New <lb/>

most responsible newspapers of the <lb/>
country, and though more Demo- <lb/>

An Officer's Unprovoked At Attack. <lb/>
About supper time Friday even- <lb/>
W. A. Hardy, of Conetoe, <lb/>
shot through the thigh by W. E. <lb/>
a policeman of that <lb/>
town. <lb/>
The statement of an eye witness <lb/>
to the is in substance <lb/>
Mr Hardy accompanied by <lb/>
two other men was on his way to <lb/>
upper when Whitehurst culled him <lb/>
of and began, it is to abuse <lb/>
him for talking about him. After <lb/>
cursing him he struck twice before <lb/>
Hardy returned a blow. Hardy then <lb/>
went at with so much <lb/>
vigor that he had the best <lb/>
of it. Hardy then to his an- <lb/>
know you have a gun, <lb/>
but when I let you go don't you shoot <lb/>
He then desisted and started <lb/>
to leave when Whitehurst drew his <lb/>
pistol, Hardy called out not to shoot <lb/>
and ran off about twenty steps, <lb/>
hen Whitehurst fired. The ball <lb/>
struck the thigh in the rear, ranged <lb/>
downward somewhat and came out <lb/>
in front. <lb/>
Mr. Hardy says that Whitehurst <lb/>
struck, with brass and <lb/>
Dr. R. L. Savage, who attended him <lb/>
says that the wounds on hi face <lb/>
have ms of inflict- <lb/>
ed by an <lb/>
Total <lb/>
Since votes are required to <lb/>
elect, it is seen from this that <lb/>
the Republicans require only <lb/>
votes from the doubtful States while <lb/>
the Democrats need This is a <lb/>
tolerably unpleasant showing on its <lb/>
face, but see further. The <lb/>
list of doubtful States is as <lb/>
Indiana <lb/>

likely to be carried by the <lb/>
Democrats are <lb/>

Statistics show that fewer youth <lb/>
from the South and West enter the <lb/>

We the undersigned democrats <lb/>
and of Township do <lb/>
advocate and recommend to the <lb/>
democratic convention of Pitt county <lb/>
for representative to our next Gen- <lb/>
Assembly- of North Carolina, <lb/>
Mr. Julius Brown, of Bethel. He is <lb/>
a young man of high character and <lb/>
standing and has numerous friends <lb/>
throughout the county. If the con- <lb/>

afternoon. The child will be <lb/>
christened Alexis. The announce- <lb/>
from was immediate- <lb/>
followed by a salute of guns <lb/>
from the imperial yacht lying at <lb/>
anchor off the palace, but it <lb/>
p. m. when the guns of St. Peter <lb/>
and St. Paul fortress opposite the <lb/>
Winter Palace here, conveyed the <lb/>
glad tidings to the people of the <lb/>
Russian capital. <lb/>
The effect was electrical. With <lb/>
the I of the first gun the people <lb/>
in the streets, who had been mo- <lb/>
expecting the event for <lb/>
twenty-four hours, stopped to listen <lb/>
and count the Only thirty- <lb/>
one are fired for a girl. When the <lb/>
thirty-second boomed and the <lb/>
were aware that at last an heir <lb/>
to the throne was born there were <lb/>
scenes of rejoicing everywhere and <lb/>
before the salute was finished the <lb/>
whole city had blossomed out with <lb/>
flags and bunting and the shipping <lb/>
in the harbor dressed. Then <lb/>
the bells of the churches began to <lb/>
ring wildly. <lb/>

Aug. p. m. Vice Ad- <lb/>

dawn to day, north of island, in <lb/>
the Strait of Korea, and attacked the <lb/>
enemy at once. The battle <lb/>
for hours and resulted in a com- <lb/>
Japanese victory. The <lb/>
cruiser was sunk and <lb/>
the cruisers and <lb/>
fled to the northward after having <lb/>
sustained serious damage. <lb/>

quite an inch long and about the <lb/>
size of a lead pencil soldered onto <lb/>
the round bomb, making a place tor <lb/>
the fuse. The bomb attracted con- <lb/>

St. Petersburg, Aug <lb/>
Aside from the official reports of the <lb/>
affair and the flood of be- <lb/>
lated telegrams from Yang and <lb/>
no actual news from <lb/>
the front has been received. <lb/>
There is a persistent rumor that <lb/>
Port has fallen, but it cannot <lb/>
be confirmed. <lb/>
There is no additional news f re- <lb/>
the whereabouts of the <lb/>
of the Port Arthur squadron <lb/>
save that contained in foreign <lb/>
There is a general belief, which is <lb/>
borne out by the latest dispatches, <lb/>
that the situation at Port is a <lb/>
desperate one. Apparently the <lb/>
are concentrating all their en- <lb/>
towards the reduction of the, <lb/>
fortress in order to release heavy re- <lb/>
for the operations <lb/>
against General and it <lb/>
is thought that until this has been <lb/>
accomplished the advance on <lb/>

When Alton B. Parker spoke the <lb/>

Wednesday afternoon there was a <lb/>
rush toward him of politicians and <lb/>
neighbors to shake his hand. Be- <lb/>
hind the pioneers of congratulation <lb/>
there was a roar of applause. <lb/>
The Presidential candidate had <lb/>
spoken for minutes. He quickly <lb/>
stepped forward to grasp a hand out- <lb/>
stretched toward hand of <lb/>
his mother, a trim, white-haired lit- <lb/>
lady who had been follow lag <lb/>

and, with God's help, you will wig a <lb/>

hope, responded the <lb/>
candidate, forecast will be as <lb/>

Then the applause, which regard <lb/>
for the domestic picture had stilled, <lb/>
burst forth afresh, and the candidate <lb/>
