A Good Ticket , and Attendance. a Large Pursuant to the call, the Dem ocrats held their county conven tion atrLillington Monday, and a largq attendance of earnest Democrats, upon whose face could be plainl' seen the deter mination to put out a ticket which would win, had not been seen at a convention in thh county for years. Tle work, o; the convention -was harmoniou in every particular and dis patched with as much rapidity as possible. All vent away from the convention satisfier with the nominees and with de termination to make one mor united"eirort to" elect the ticke and p3lace Harnett county agaii in the hands of the Democratic part'-. ' The convention was called t order at 11 :30 o'clock by cha r man Mc Lean. Mr. J. C. Clif ford, the secretary, called tin roll of townships and each ans wered present with a good del egation. The chairman anoun ced that each township delega tion retire for ten minutes and select members for the com mittees on pornianaiit. organiza tion and on platforms and . res olutions, and to recommend a name to the chairman for poll holder. When the townships reported the committees the convention took a recess for thirty minutes for the commit tees to prepare their reports. At 1 o'clock the convention re-assembled and the committee on platform and resolutions made the following report which was unanimously adopted : "Resolved, that we believe that the happiness and pros perity of North Carolina de pend upon having white men - to control our State and count' government in all their details. "Resolved, that we are ap posed to mixing our school com mittees between the races, but we favor, controlling the white schools by white men and col ored schools by colored men. "Resolved, that we will use all honorable means to secure white supremacy in North Car olina by voting the white man's ticket. "Resolved, that we pledge ourselves to do all in our power to elect the ticket which mav be nominated by this convention. "Resolved, that we denounce 4he present State government of the Republican party for its gross abuse of its . powers by increasing the number of of fices, the increase of public tax es, its scandalous administra tion of the penitentiary as well as the incompetent manage ment of the agricultural depart ment, which is peculiarly the interest of the farmers. arc in tic ins out oi i c control of 'ac Agricultural Deportment :-nd putting practical' white farm- er "in coniroi u; (,:it; .-ciui'. . Resolved, that we are in ,a- vor o f me insniiue iu: the rhi "P Deaf. ' Dumb ana ; Blind. children of the State , in !tho control of white men." After the adoption of the A. ! ahove resolutions Mr. J. Green came on the platform ftiid ' addressed the chair and started to introduce; a resolution. fl: ,.:red that Mr. tii ; 'convention a-; a candidate S ill i o re mem dreen was m 1 two vear ago for the nomination lor sherili : and was defeated and also offer-j ed some resolutions, his plan for putting the county on a "cash basis," which were also defeat ed, lie afterward accepted the nomination for commissioner from the Populists and Repub licans, and was elected, claim in n all the while to be a Derao- crat.) Objection was made to ; his participating in the actions ' or tJie convention unless ne would say that he would sup port the nominees of the con vention. He refused to answer the question, saying that if the convention would endorse his resolutions, he would, if not he would not. The convention refused to hear his resolutions or alllow him to address it unless he would agree to abide the reside of the convention wnich he re fused to -do. He withdrew a id his attempt to get the Demo cratic convention to endorse his administration as chairman of the board of county commis sioners was defeated. The convention on permanent organization then made their report as follows : for perma nent chairman Hon. D. 11. Mc Lean, for secretaries, Mr. Geo. E. Prince, and A. M. Woodall, oditor of The Union. Mr. Mc Lean on taking the chair made a short and happy speech and was received with much ap plause. The presentation of-the ban ner which the ladies nf the county have given to the Dem ocratic party of the county to be given to that township which casts the largest per centage of the registered white voters for the Democratic party was there had. Mr. J. C. Clifford made the presentation in be half of the ladies and Mr. Mc Lean in behlf of the Democracy accepted it. Each of these gentlemen made excellent ad dresses and when the banner was unfurled a shout from five hundred throats, rent the air, mingled with long and loud clapping of hands. After the presentation of the banner the chair announced that nominations were in order. The candidate for State Senator was first and Hon. F. P. Jones, of Dunn was placed in nomina tion and was unanimously en dorsed by acclamation. For the member of the House of Representatives the names of Hon. D. II. Mc Lean and Mr. Jl C.

The standard bearers are now named and let us keep the enthusiasm growing and victory will be ours on the 8th day of Novem ber after the battle of ballots has been fought. k'I think DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve is the finest preparation on the market for the piles." So writes John C. Dunn of Wheeling, W. Va. Try it and you will think the s;ime. It also cures ecze ma and all skin diseases. Hood & Grantham, - What township will receive the banner? is a question that you hear asked now. Every township will make an exceed in giv strong effort to obtain it . It is a prize to be fought for, and one that any township may well feel proud to have in its posession. The inscriptions on it carry with it an incentive for zealous work and higher ambi tion. On the pure white silk side it reads in large gilt letters : ' 4 White Supremacy, ' ' on the other side, which is of blue silk it reads : "Woman's tribute to love of race and country." Win your battles against disease by acting pjomptly. One Minute Cough Ctne pi educes immediate results. When taken e-irly it prevents consumption and in Liter stages it furnishes prompt relief. Hood fc Grantham. m m A man who says he is stand ing on the principles of the Pop ulist party, and then votes with and for men who. belong to a party of antagonistic principles and which gives negroes office in preference to white men, has a poor conception of what we think principle is.

T'hK vnondi Hires of the las SI General Assembly, in " which Democrats wyere very scarce, and riot and ruin ran rampart, and incompetents and traders and-plunderers made the old state groan under a load of ob loquy and general badness. The last legislature wras a marvellous body of ignorance and recklessness. The mem bers of the senate were paid $14,142.80. The employes of the senate (think of it) were paid $11,592.28. Marvellous to behold, me ienows em ployed to attend upon their lordships, the fifty members, received nearly $12,000 dollars for a two months' session. That beats black radicalism in the dark days of reconstruction. Unless South Carolina, in the time of carpet-bag theives can find a parallel the performaces of the last North Carolina leg islature must "take the cake." and wear the badge of infamy. The Stanley Enterprise has well, turned on the light on this matter of cost in running the most infamous legislature. ' We quote from it : : 'Hi the state senate there are fi f ty members . The senate chamber is not larger than our court room in Stanly Co., yet it took twenty men, wTorking at $2.50per day, to attempt to keed it clean. Besides these twenty busy men, fifteen boys (pages) at $1 per day were nec essary to attend the wants of the high lords. Let the tax payers consider this ; $G5 per day to hire help to attend the fifty senators and keep in order a room not larger than our court room." :- What has been said is of the cost of the little senate with but fifty members. The house- has 120. The total. cost of the first ''combine.' rad-pop, legislature was $59,000, that of 1895. The cost of the last rotten body that of 189 7 cost the people the tax-payers $72,000. This mind you, is only for a sixty dav's session. The cost-was $1200 each day. The Demo cratic legislatures cost . less by some thousands. From 1876 to the return of black radical ism, in company with populists to power, both combing to spend unwisely the peoples' money, and to pass laws that were un wise and ruinous, the average cost of legislatures was not more than about $01,000, -as we have seen it stated -Wilmington Messenger. Our baby has been continually troubled with colic and cholera infan tum since his birth , and all that we could do for him did not seem to give more than temporary "relief, until we tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.

We thought it was arranged a while back that a certain posi tion was to be given him, and he would "throw" Harnett for Ollie Dockery for solicitor.
