Cuairman Holton, of the Republican

12,000 to 20,00) majority, and Russell
by 20,000. Ifthe Populists will stop
and consider the question carefuily,

~uhey ought to see that their actions now
jare aiding just sich a result as Holton

must be the next Governor of North

from office Heury D. Clayton, a dis.

{items of NEWS as it Occurs
eS as Write plainly
me for the purpose of showing
me tuat North Carolina is going
to elect Dan Russell and a Re-
publican Legislature and give
Bryan a close rub.
From numerous figures made, I
think I am able to give the Ob-
server the calculations of Chair-
man Holton. Here they are, and
to an unprejudiced mind they
seem to be about as fair as could
be expected from the opposition.
Democrats in North Carolina
have always underestimated the
Repubtican vote of the State, and
that has caused them to blindly
court defeat. The Populist
strength is probably : underesti-
mated here. °
Here are tue figures:
Number of ~negroes in North
Carolina, according to tne cens1s
of 1890, who are over the age of
21, 109,000. Number of whites,
233,000. Add 5,000 for increase
since. Number of negroes going
to vote this year. 92,600. Number
to vote for McKinley, 83,000; for
Bryan, 9,355 (this includes all
Democratic and Populist negroes
oand all whose vote will be tam-
pered with�). Number to vote
for Russell, 76,200; Guthrie and
Dockery, 14,220; Watson, 2,280.
Number of white Kepublicans,
73,000, Number goig to voto
this year, 65,800. Number for
McKinley, 61,101; fcr Bryan,
4,599; Russell, 61,600; Gathrie,
3,100; Watson, 1,500.
White Democrats in North Uar-
olina, 140.000. Number to yote
this year, 140,200. For Bryan,
127,590; McKinley, 1,559; Palmer,
851. For Watson, 130,093; Guth-
rie, 107.
White Populists in North Caro-
lina, 25,000. Colored Populists,
7,358 (iovluded in Bryan's negro
vote). Total Populist vote, 32,-
358. Of the 25,000, 23,112 will
vote. Of these Bryan will get 19,-
163 (the balance won't vote the
presidential ticket). Guthrie will
get 21,209; Watson, 1,302; Russell,
60v.
Summing all this up, the Re-
publican informant state the vote
~\to be: McKinley, 145,630; Bryan,
160,807. BryanTs majority, 15,147.
For Governor: Rasvell, 138, -
400; Watson, 134,675; Guthrie,
3,627. Plurality for Russell, 3,-
725.
oNow,� says the Republican,
owe don't give. what .we believe
our méjorities will be. In fact
we believe we will carry the State
for both McKinley and Russell,
for so mavy Democrats are every
| day writing us they will vote for
McKinlev. You canTt say but that
this »s a very fine and impartial
calculation.�
~Now, Mr. Observer, what mast
the better element in North Uar-
-jolina dot We sre foolish to go
against census figures and say
there are only 80,000 negroes;
when there are 109,000. We are
foolish to figure on 30,000 white
Republicers. The only thing to
| 000,
high!y, should read the, figures}
~|do is to go ahead, determined to
yote every single Democrat in
the State for Oy. Wateon. The
Republicans concede ua 140,000
: o4 to!
ures we can beat Russell. Work
isthe only thing that will do the
work."George Pell in Charlotte
Obsereer. ,
"
The Law Gives No Lein on Houshoid
Goods For House Rent.
There is no rule of law about
which there is a more widespread
error among intelligent business
_|men than the one which obtains
in reference to the lien of the
landlord on the furniture and ef-
fects of the tenant. There isa
common belief that where rent
for a dwelling house is past due,
the landlord has the right to pre-
vent the tenant from moving his
furniture and effects from the
house until the 1ent is paid. This
is altogether erroneous. The own
er ofa house who rents ittoa
tonant has absolutely no claim
onthe tenanvTs furniture for the
rent, and cannot prevent him
from removing his furniture from
the house. no matter how much he
may be behind in the payment of
his rent."C. W. TILLETT in Char-
lotte Observer.
The discevery has been made
that BryanTs father wade a speech
in 1868 in favor of the gold stand-
ard, aud certain newspapers are
making a great parade of that
fact. What if he did? Bryan's
father is not running for Presi-
dent; itTs his son who is making
the race. But worse than that,
William McKinley voted in Con-
gress and spoke for free silver,
and is now seeking to be electeu
President on a gold platform.
Bryan has never been so incon:
sistent, and he is not in the small-
est manner responsible for the
acts of, his father."Goldsboro
Argus.
SARL A RNa OBERES!
In the Colorado desert they
have rainstorms during which
not asingle drop of water touches
the earth. The rain can be seen
falling from the clouds high
above the desert, but when the
water reaches the strata of hot,
drv air beueati the clouds it is
entirely absorbad before falling
half the distance to the ground.
It is a singutar sight to. witness a
heavy downpour of rain not a
drop of which touches the ground.
These strange rainstorms occur
in regions where the shade tem-
pera~ure often ranges as high as
128 degrees Fahrenheit."Kansas
Star.
A few years ago a hard-work-
ing man got tired of town life
and went tothe country. It was
about all he could doto make a
living in town. but he has done
well on the farm. A few days
ago he was in town with a loed
of corn, and the beauty of the
thing was that the corn, wagon
and mules were all his own. That
beats town drudgery out of sight,
Let others go and do likewise.
The towa is no place for a man,
who cau dig a good living out of,
the soil."Reidsville Weekly.
The New York Journal has
sent Chairman Jones a check for
$15,000. It agreed to give $1.00
for eyery $1.00 contributed by
others, and the whole sum the
committee gets by the JournalTs
generosity is $30,000. True Dem-
ocrats will never torget the work
There is no real elevation of mina

He was succeedcd by Admiral

As Admirzi Dundas left the fleet
at Kamiesch the crews of both Eng-
lish and French ships manned the
yards and gave him a_ parting
up to Sir E. Loyns on board the
Agamemnon, ~May success attend
you,TT to which Sir KE, Lyons ordered
to be hoisted in reply, ~~May happi-
ness await you.�T
But though in real life hanging
and happiness are generally consid-
sred to have no very close connec.
tion, yet in the signal code they aru
very much alike. Unfortunately, in
the burry to repty to Admiral Dun.
das, the flag for the former instead
of the latter word was hoisted, and

was not Giscovered and hauled down
till the whole fleet had seen and
