The caucus of the Democratic mem
bers of the Legislature held in Raleigh
last week nominated Senator Vabce as
his own successor in the U. S. Senate
and recommended Hon. Daniel G.
Fowle for the position of Solicitor-
General. The resolutions in regard to
Judge Fowle were introduced by
Senator Troy, ot Cumberland, and are
as follows :
Resolved, That the Democratic mem
bers of the seneral assembly ot North
Carolina do hereby heartily recommend
and endorse Hon. Daniel G. Fowle as a
gentleman eminently fitted by legal
attainments, untiring industry and un
impeachable integrity for the office of
solicitor gcneial ot tne United Estates.
Resolved. That the chairman ot this
rneetincr Bend a copy of this resolution
to Hon. Grover Cleveland, President
elect of the United States.
This action on the partjof the caucus
will be received with great favor
throughout the entire State. No better
- -
selection could be made ior the position
and we feel confident that the wishes of
the people of North Carolina thus ex
pressed through their representatives
will determine the result when tho ap
pointraent is to be made.
