The Republican met In conven tion here in the Court House last Saturday to select delegates to the Republican State convention. There were present 22 whites and 64 nc groes. The convention was called to order by Mr. P. T. Massey who call ed on Mr. J. R, CoaU to preside over ! the convention, Mr. Coats safd that he was glad that ths Republican party could meet once mors In Johnston county, and although they were few in number; their principles were right and would eventually succeed and wished for the time when they would again have the power in the State ; the time wou'd come when their enemies, the Demo crats, would hare to lick the dust, as it were, at the feet of the Republicans. He applied a scriptural passage to himself and said that where two or three are gathered together in thy name, lo. I am wi.h 30U." The next business was the selec tion of a secretary. (We suppose the bosfes had neglected to fill this place in their caucus.) John Beckwith, colored, moved that J. W. Byrd. col ored, be made Secretary, and Free man Ennis, col, seconded the noniN nation. We would that we were able to de scribe the look on the chairman's face when this nomination was made. He looked the crowd of whites over again and again but he could not see J. M Byrd. He was one that did not want a negro sec. etary, He feigned that he did not hear the nomination made and sat in the chait as still and deaf as a mute.. He was ina quandary. He knew not what to do. Three or four minutes passed and the boss. F. T. Massey, whisper ed to him and he put the question, and Byrd was elected secretary with but one distenting voice and that was W. T. Cox or Bentonsville. He Voted no. He don't take any negro secretaries in bis. A conimltte of four white men and one negro were appointed to se lect four delegates and four alternates to the State convention. They re ported as follows : delegates, I). W. Fuller, J. R. Coates, J, B. Dupree, Rev. W. T. H. Woodard (col); alter nates John Sanders, Joseph Langs ton. J, W. Byrd (col.) A, W. Smith (col), John Beckwith (col) moved that the delegates be Instructed to vote for the putting out of a State ticket, and made the only speech of the oc casion, giving very good reasons for his position. John Sanders opposed the motion and said if they wished to aid the Democratic party to do what John Beckwith said; the Republicans need ed help row and their only hope was to act with the People's party. P. T. Messey also opposed the mo tion ; be was in favor of uniting with the People's party ; they .could not hope to gain anything by a-' State ticket they needed some help to watch the Democrats, and the Peo ple's party would help them; and he moved that the delegates be instruct ed to oppose a State ticket. No one seconded John Beckwith's motion and the chair was about to rule it out because it had not receiv ed one, finally a negro seconded it and the chair put the question and it was voted down. Mr. Massey 's mo tion was .then put and was carried. The convention was completely under the control of the white boss es and John Beckwith was tee only negro who would dure to assert his rights. The negroes could easily have controlled the convention if they had stood np and wanted too, but they sat still and let the minor ity rule. The roll of townships was called an I only 9 answered. Clayton, Cleveland. Boon Hill, Wilders, Oneal's and Wilson's Mills were not represented. Among the white men were six office holders. P. T. Massey and H. M. Barnes Revenue officers; John Sanders, guagei; Joe Langs ton, stor-keeper; J. D. Massey and Wm. Gurley. Pott -master a, Smithfield Herald. The negroes of the South are the biggest cranks in the world. Ask them who are their best friends, who gives them work to do, who they live among, and they will tell 50a the white Democrats, and yet they walk rght up to the poles and vote again t the white peoples interest and wel fare. One feature of Montana's mineral display will be a genuine brick of gold worVb $130,000, ,'N.C.B. E-ts. THOMAS LOSS Thos. B. Long is the nominnee of the People's party on the State tir.k et foj Auditor. Mr. Long was the a?ent for the North Carolina Rail road at Salisbury from August 1868 to October. 1869, a little oyer a year. He had given a bond in the sum of 10,000 for the faithful and honest conduct of the duties pertain ing to this trust. The Railroad Co. discovered by and by that their agent was not making full and complete returns of the proceeds of the office. He was dismissed from service, and an investigation instituted whicn de veloped the fact that he bad been un faithful to the employing company to the tune of several thousand doN lars. An action was instituted bv the company to recover the amount ot his defalcation. The suit was brought in this. Alamance, county, it being the domicile of the company, and upon trial a verdict was render ed by a jurj' for the sum of $5 951.94 against the defendant Long in favor of the plainlitf companjv All the records of the proceedings, judge ment and all, are now on file in the office of the Clerk of the Superior Court of Alamance county. And the judgement has not been satisfied to this day. Several j'ears ago. when said T. B. Long began to aspire to political honors, he went to Col, Thos. M. Holt, then President of the N. C. R, R. Co., now Governor of our Com monwealth, and asked the company's best terms for the adjustment of the matter, Col. Holt proposed to remit all interest and to accept fifty cents on the dollar as full satisfaction of judgement. Mr. Long said the pro position was liberal and satisfactory, and that be would pay it off. Al ready, several years have elapsed and Mr. Long has not paid a penny of it. Such is the record of the man for mer Republican whom the People's party has nominated for the office of State Auditor, whose business it is, briefly stated, to manage the finan cies of the State, how long would it be before be would bankrupt the State ? A defaulter to manage the fiuancie3 of the State would be a pub lic disgrace and calamity. The peo- pie who believe in honest govern men t and faithful public servants should see to it that only honest and capable men are nominated and elect ed to office.

So our men came home with heads down knowing they are gone with their party this year wherw the "wood vine twinctti."

The head of the Third party has pulled oft Dr, Exum, has instructed the chairman. Mr. Wilson, so says the Charlotte Observer, not to make any more appointments for him, that between the Republicans and Demo crats, he preferred the Democrats. Col. Harry Skinner who has floored the Third Partyite more than once this 3'ear, give them a last death blow. By saying lie will not enter the field gainst the Democrats in this campaign, Over $50,000 in special premiums has been offered by different live stock associations, to say nothing of scores of gold and s:lver medals and other special prizes. The Exposi tion company has appropriated $150. 000 for live stock premiums. The live stock exhibition will open with a dog show on June 12th, which will be the greatest ten nel exhibit ever held. All ei.trics in the cattle and horse division from the United States and Canada must be made before June 15th, 1893. This will prove of great interest to farmers and all those who are interested in live stock. Notice- State of North In the Superior Carolina, Mar- V Court, before the nett count'. ) , Clerk.
