Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Rood
deserve much credit for the
interest they have aroused
in Christian work among: the
anticfc r
rial on Thursday night de
serves much credit. It was
well gotten up and the man
agement was excellent. It
was; free from those clashes
which are often the attendants
of church socials. The life
and interest along these, lines
of culture are due in a : crreat
measure to the untiring efforts
of the pastor and his wife.
desire ' fusion. If Populists
could not decide in a Conven
tion of ninety delegates, con
sisting of representative men
from all parts of the couritry,
how can a Democratic commit
tee of less than twenty men
decide or interpret the wishes
of the entire Democratic vote
of Wilson county? The one
seems to be guided by caution,
while the other follows blindly.
So we urge that if there is to
be fusion at all- let it be done
in a dignified, ' business like
manner. Both Democrats
and Populists have .rights ; let
them decide mutually the
course which shall be pursued.
In view of the fact that all
of our people are not ante . fu
sionists', the following conver
sation of one of North Caroli
na's prominent sons will be of

interest to many. 1 ne; gen tie

It was about five years ago

My' crops were as bountiful
as ever, but with all this I had
no money in my pocket nor

At first I thought this was.

brought on by the prosperous
times through which I had just

full after the havestinon time
was over. My first move was

A FAIUIER'S DKEA3I. : ' Populist County Conventions.
The Convention was called to or
der by H. F. Freeman, Chairman of
the Populist County Ex. Committee.
Mr. L. E. Newsom was appointed
temporary Secretary. .. lr
Permanent organization was then
taken up. J. T. 6. Hoover was
elected permanent- chairman and J.
D. Means was made Secretary, both
of Flm City.
The committee on resolutions was'
composed of R. S. Clark, A. I. Par
ker, ;B. F, Gardner, L. E. .Newsom
and G. W. Bryant, was then appoint
ed by the chair. A motion was then
made by one of the enthusiastic mem
bers to keep in the .middle of the
road. By an almost unanimous vote
this was carried. But the more con
servative element decided that this
would notice wise, so after a .hearty
discussion by Dr. Freeman, who had
just returned to the Convention, Mr.
Hoover and Mr. Cherry, this motion
was recallea'. Kv ;

was raised over fusion with

should act .in unison with the

put the propositions before the Con

advocating Democratic fusion., He
stated that the Democratic proposi-'
