BUT DREYFUS IS SAVED." IS Chairman Simmons Says State is for both IMPERIALISM AN ISSUE Chairman Simmons and National Committeeman Daniels Interviewed for the New York World.

The New York World of Sunday contains interviews with leading. Southern Democrats on the question "Should the leading question in the ucxt Demomratic Natioanal Platform be Free Silver at the Ratio of 16 to 1J" The World used the fnlowing heading over the article: "Silver leaders do not regard silver a-real issue. Interviews with representative Democrats show Brynnism has lost strength since the campaign of '0(1. Fight on trusts and imperialism. Silver would not win, they say, and if it did.

could not be made effective on account of the Republican Senate." The World prints the following from this State under the subhead: "North Carolina is Rapidly Cooling Off on the Silver Issne:" Josephus Daniels, National Committeeman nnd editor of the Raleigh News and Observer The lending issue should be a trinity of issues. The Chicago platform should be. and will Ire. endorsed without the slightest change. The policy of imperialism and militarism should be sharply arraigned as destructive of the foundation principles of our Government.

Trusts 'should be denounced as tile "outlaws of commerce." and honest pledges made to suppress them. The discussion of trusts and militarism will largely engross tiie voters' attention in many sections of the Union. The men who voted for Bryan three years ago have not changed their belief in bimetallism, but they do not expect men who regard militarism as destruetice to liberty, and trusts as a menace individual ambition, to give the money question first place. Anti-monometallism and anti-militarism and anti-trust will be the Democratic shibboleths next year. F.

M. Simmons, Democratic State Chairman In my judgment free silver at the ratio of 10 to 1 ought to be." and will be, one of the leading questions in the ncxt-e'iinpaign. The Chicago platform platform on this subject ought to lie, and I am confident will be, reaffirmed. So far as North Carolina is concerned there has been, andtjjp'ill be, no abatement in its enthusiastic support both of silver and Mr. Bryan.

We believed in 1800 that free silver was right. We still believe it is right. I believe free silver aud opposition to trusts should lie the two paramount issues. The World gives the following miiii mary from the interviews: Non-com-State. For 10 to 1.

The West Indian hurricane appears to be gradually decreasing in strength, and the chances are that it will spend itself before making much further progress. This was the welcome news given out by the officials of the Weather Bureau last night. It is based on the fact that there has not been any decided fall in the barometer in the localities that should feel its effect, and by the presence of an area of high pressure in the northern part of the United Slates, which tends to keep the storms from lohtinuiug its onward march. The movement of the hurricane is apparent very slow, and even at Jacksonville tlie velocity of the wind this morning was but twenty-two miles an hour. The opinion of the officials is that by the time Charleston is reached llii'ie will he no more than an ordinary blow.

Wilmington. and Norfolk have lakcn down their hurricane signals. The storm now apjiears to U' on the east coast of Florida, and latest reports from dated 4 o'clock yesterday niorn-inu. indicate a pretly severe blow at that place. It was south of Jacksonville night, indicating slow northward inoveiiH nt since Saturday night.

The Weather Bureau has had no wire reports south of Titu-ville. Fl.a., snine distance below Jacksonville, since Saturday night, and nothing rrom Nassau. Bahama Islands, since Friday after-noou. T'ho following message lias been sent to tin1 Philadelphia and New York Maritime Exchanges and to other shipping points: "Storm still central in Florida, tint wiih decreased strength. Conditions safe for vessels sailing north to all points from Wilmington, N.

northward." THE POLICE COURTS HAVE LAROE DOCKETS Mayor Powell to Pacify Bowery Harnett Desperadoes Before Commissioner. The Mayor's Court had quite, a full docket this morning and the magistrates too did not sit wi'th hands folded. The first ca' which engaged the Mayor's attention was Keltic Suininerlin for resisting an officer. She was brought up Kayettevillc street late Saturday night by an officer and an assistant, and she raised quite a commotion. She was given thirty days on the roads.

The last seen of her she was making towards Cary with her earthly (losscssioiis tied up in a bundle on her back. A general row occurred on the Bowery late evening, in which several negro women and two white men, whose identity has not been found out, participated. The women rocked the buggy in which the men were riding.

Mayor Powell said this morning: '1 am going to break up this disorder on. the Bowery or largely increase Mr. Mc-Maekch's force anyway." He makes all who are fined pay spot cash or go to the roads now. Judge Roberts sent Willis Price to the roads for assault and battery and fined Alex. Watkins for the same.

Commissioner Nichols to-day gave Guy and Campbell, tile two Harnett county desperadoes, who were arrested at a prayer meeting, a hearing and sent I hem back to jail. NATURE. As a fond mother, when the day 'is er, Lads by the hand her little child to bed, Half willing, half reluctant to be led, And leave his broken playthings on the floor, Still gazing at them through the open door, Nor wholly reassured or comforted By promises of others in their stfead, Which, thugh more splendid, may not please him more So Nature deals with us and takes us awny Our plaything, one by one, and by the nana Leads us to rest so gently that we go Scare knowing if we wished to go or stay, Being too full of sleep to understand How far the unknown transcends the what we know. -LONGFELLOW.
