CONGRESSIONAL TICKET. For Congress Seventh District, SAMUEL J. PEMBEBTON. of Stanly. SENATOR PRITCHARD. Senator Pritchard has announced that he will not "divide time" or have a joint discussion with anyone who is not a candidate for United States Senator. "Upon what meat hath this our Csesar fed that he hath'grown so great ?" " We remember that Senator Vance when he was a candidate for United States Sen ator cheerfully divided time with any re spectable opponent. So did Senator Hansom, but Senator Pritchard is so great that he can't condescend to meet anybody in joint debate. We thought this was strange, and, as we expected, was not the true reason of the refusal. His speech here disclosed the true rea son of his refusal to have a joint discus-, sion. His glaring inconsistencies and gross misrepresentations of facts will not stand the test of debate. He stated here that the income tax was declared unconstitutional by a Denv ocratic Supreme Court. Is it possible bat the Senator does not know that the Court is composed of four Democrats and five Republicans? Why did Sen ator Pritchard make this statement? He impressed upon his hearers that the Cranberry Iron Works were shut down in consequence of the low tariff or Wil son Bill, when he knew the fact that thfl bo1m warA ah lit down: kafnui the passage of the Wilson bill. He endeavored to show that the Wil . eon bill was the cause of the' depletion of gold in the treasury of the United States, and was the. reason why bonds had to be issued to keep up credit, etc. Senator Pritchard knew, or ought to . hare known, that Secretary Foster (Har ' rison's treasurer) ordered the plates for a bond issue before Harrison's term' expired. '. The Secretary's figures (and he is no friend of silver) show that ia spite of the depression of business and the nul lification of the income tax, the Wilson bill produced sixteen millions more rev enue the first year of its existence than the McKinley bill, and has yielded twelve millions more in the last twelve months of the fiscal year than did the McKinley bill in the same period of its last year. ;' - These facts are undisputed and unde niable. If the Wilson .bjll produced more revenue than the McKinly bill, how Could it deplete the treasury ? The reason why the Wilson bill produced tnorei revenue was because the McKinley tax was so high that it prohibited im portation of foreign geods. ' .Shame on you, Senator Pritchard, for refusing joint debate, and then make such, statements to mislead the people. The Senator knows, or ought to have known, that during the last four months of Harrison's administration there was . a deficiency, according to the secreta ry's report, of $5,810,54$. 4 . w Senator Pritphard further knOws that the loss of go&rduriug Harrison's ad ministration byexport was $128,000, 000 and a surplus Of $83,000,000 was squandered, and "an annual" surplus of $100,000,000 was converted into a de ficiency. Senator Pritchard is certainly an ig norant man or he presames that his hearers are grossly ignorant. Major Guthrie warned his people not to vote for any man for the Legislature who would vote for Pritchard; said he was unreliable; had been for free silver, but now was for gold. We agree with llaj . Guthrie that Pritchard is unreliable and ought not to be voted for by anybody, We could give other instances of his gross misrepresentations. The above are sufficient to show the character of his speech. . ' " If the Senator is afraid because of his zigzag course to discuss the silver ques tion and wants to push the tariff ques tion to the front, he ought to post him: self on the subject and discuss it from the statesman's standpoint ; and not from the standpoint of the ignorant demagogue. The Republicans of the State offered to withdraw Russell in favor of Guthrie if thesJPopuiiets would agree to support Pritchard for re-election to the Senate, '.irbjs the committee ooultl not afford to do. in view of the fact that .Fritcnara is a ram pint gtlJ bug, as they were' afraid the rank and file of the Populists would rebel against such an unholy trade. In regard tb such an arrangement Senator Butler says : . . . "If such an arrangement had been made."- ' our candidate for Governor would have had a clear track. As it is, there is a three-cornered race for Gov ernor, and if we elect our candidate; as I have no doubt we will, it will be with. out the aid of Republican fusion. -The candidates elected to tHe Legislature will be free to follow their own inclina tions. I am led to believe that neither of the three parties with candidates in the. field will have a majority of the Legislature." Keps. and Fol. I'usrfon State Ticket. 2 Raleigh. N. C, Sept. 10. The Populiet and Republican committees to dav aereed to fuse on the State tickets as follows : ... Secretary of State Dr. Cyrus Thomp son. " : . . Treasurer W. If . Worth. Attorney General Zeb Vance Wal- ser. ; Supreme Court Justices R. M. Doug as and Walter Montgomery. Russell and Guthrie will both remain in -the field for Governor for the present, though it is believed by many of the leaders that one of tbem will be -taken down later on; more probably Guthrie. The Republicans have accepted Dock ery's resignation as a candidate for Lieutenant Governor and put Chas. Reynolds, of Winston, in his place. No agreement has been reached in regard to auditor, The Republicans, how ever, are willing to take down Hender son and endorse Ayer if the Populists will endorse Reynolds. This will be done in case Russell comes down later, on. On the congressional ticket the Populists get the 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7 dis tricts and the Republicans get the 2, 5', 8 and 9. The Populists however re serve the right to at any time, put up candidates in the districts accorded the Republicans. The committees agree to use their good offices to Eecure fusion between Republicans and Populists in the coun ties. It is probable that the Populists will fuse with the Democrats on the electoral ticket on the basis of the prop osition made by the Democratic com mittee some weeks ago. Tne following is the agreement be tween the two chairmen :' -The People's party State executive committee and the Republican State executive committee, in behalf of their respective parties, affirm our devotion and fixed determination to-support and maintain a free ballot and fair count in all election held in North Carolina and pledge ourselves to . the policy of up holding the principle of free and hon est elections aimed at and provided for the election laws enacted by the Legis lature of ,1S95, and for the purpose of maintaining the act of the last Legis lature restoring to the people the right I of local self-government, enter into the following terms of co-operation : First, J to equitably co-operate to secure the election of members of the Legislature ! pledged to these reforms, with co-operation . on the county officers; second, that the Republicans concede the Popu lists candidates for Congress in the fol- i lowing districts third, fourth, sixth and seventh, and4he Populists reserve the right '.to name ' candidates m the second, fifth and ninth, the first and eighth districts having made satisfac tory adjustment .through their respec- that the Republicans support the nomi nees of the People's party for Secretary of State, Treasurer, Superintendent of Public. Instruction andjassociate justice of the Supreme Court. That the Popu lists support the nominees of the Re publican party for attorney general, as sociate justice and judge of the Superior Court in the fifth district; fourth, the good offices of our respective commit tees are pledged to accomplish the re sults aimed at in this agreement. feigned I HAL.

Washington, Sept. 10. The cotton report of ' the Department of Agricul turefor September shows a decline from the August condition of the crop, which wos 80.1, to 64.2 per. cent, a loss of 15.9 points. This is the lowest Septem ber condition reported in the last jwenty-seven years. The State averages are as follows ,Vu"ginia, 80; North Carolina, 70; South Carolina, 70; Georgia, 71; Florida, ;72; Alabama, 66; Mississippi, 61; Louisiana, 60; Texas, 62; Arkansas, 60; Tennessee, 61; Missouri, 81; Iadian Territory, 60; Oklahoma, 65. A few counties and parishes in' Mis: 3isdippi and Louisiana report fairly good crops, but the complaint is general that the excessive heat and . dry weather have caused the plant to shed leaves, blooms and bolls, and that where rains havef alien they have come too late to be of material benefit. The plant has consequently matured prematurely ,and bblls have opened so rapidly that the crop is being gathered earlier than for many years. . - , Some counties report that the crop will all be harvested by October 1; others by the middle of October. A few counties in Mississippi report dam age to open cotton by heavy rains. Xeedle in n Child's Leg. Salisbury World. . - Last week "Mrs, J. M. Brown observed what she thought was a pin or needi in a.t--1. '.m 1 ... . . ' - - . ' iue leg oi ner mree months old child. She investigated but could discover no thing. She' sent for Dr. John White head Saturday and he determined to make an investigation which ; he did yesterday. He found imbedded in the flesh of the child's leg a needle just as Mrs. Brown had believed from the be ginning. How or when it got . there Mrs. Brown was unable to say. The Webster Herald says there is confined in jail there, charged with vio lation of the internal revenue lsw, a man who haa a wife and family at home totally destitute. A gentleman stopped at their home and fed the mule that he as riding some corn that he had with him. - When the mule had finished the children groveled in the dirt for the grains of corn that themule had left, and these children twere as naked as toe day they were born. : Solicitor Bynum, of the Greensboro district, tells of a squire in hia district who tried a man for murder and sen tenced him to be hanged. POLITICAL NOTES. -.: ; ..,' -:,,.;;,!.;,; ',v '- Jno. C. Sheehan, Tammany leader of New York city, has declared for Bryan; and Tammany is to have a ratification rally at which Bryan will speak. Halifax county Populists, not with standing Buck Kltchin'8 protest, de cided to fuse with the Republicans and Buck' and several others bolted the con vention. S - Tom Watson is tired of being trifled with, and now proposes to see Mr. Bry an personally and give him choice - be tween dropping fiewall or having a middle--of-the-road Populist .' nominated for President. : ; Walter R. Henrv declines the fusion nomination for Senator in Mecklenburg and Dr. J. B. Alexandei is put on in his place. Henry has not been a resi dent of the Senatorial district one year, and was therefore ineligible. Populist State Chairman Ayer calls the central committee to meet on the 21st instant, to consider the matter of electoral fusion with the Democrats. It is assured that the Populists will accept the Democratic proposition for a division of the electors. ' Speaking of the Rep.-Pop. trade at Raleigh, Mr. B. F. Long said that it is the worst of corruption, and in it Mr. Butler only shows more clearly that he does not want the silver movement to succeed, and desires the defeat of Mr. Bryan. ' j The second Democratic convention; of Pennsylvania assembled at Harnsbtirg. last week to fill the vacancies on . the State ticket. It declared heartily for Bryan and Sewall and' for the Chicago ticket, though over the protest of the gold men. " Chairman Hoi ton says there will not be electoral fusion between populists and democrats, as the former will not vote forSewall; he does not think there will be any more changes on the fusion state ticket though it is said the com mittees have agreed on complete fusion later on. It is reported that many Populists are "hot" at the action of their State com mittee last week in fusing with the Re publicans. It is harly probable that there is backbone enough to organize a tick against the committee, as it is quite broadly intimated that the latter knew well before it acted that the .great majority of Populists wanted to go with the Republicans. " f - Rumor was current last week that the Farmers' Alliance shoe factory at Hills- boro had failed Editor Ramsey, of the Progressive Farmer, says this is an error; tnat tne factory nas never been operated, as it was ' decided to be best'auied down he will be powerfully to wait until more funds could be se cured; that $12,000 has been invested and that other funds are now being col lected.' The people are for Bryan. The re turns from the Massachusetts Demo cratic primaries show that the advocates of Bryan carried every district in Bos ton except where the "bluebloods" rule. The largest vote was cast in the pri maries know since the clebrated Butler contest. The "bluebloods" fought Butler, and he won. Bryan has the same opposition. It is stated on high authority that an understanding has been reached between the Republican and Populist State com ittees that there should be complete fu sion a little later on the State " ticket. The members of both committees took a pledge to keep this secret, and it is impossible for anyone to ascertain who it is agreed to drop irotn the ticket whether Russell or Guthrie. The populists and republicans have fused in over sixty counties. 1 There are populist bolters in nearly every county. Democratic leaders insist that great num bers of populists will not abide by the action of their State committee in fusing with the republicans. Republican Chairman Holton asserts that the demo crats stole 30,000 negro vetes last elec tion. Democratic Chairman Manly s-.ys this is absurd, and either th Jidk of men with pockets full of Hanna's money or else done for a purpose. He says 35,- 000 democrats who did not vote two years ago wilf vote this year, and that of 15,000 democrats , who then voted with the populist many are disgusted 1 n i will vote democratic. Manly says the republicans have made ' plans for rank frauds by voting negroes under aliases and registering minors and ex convicts, and hope to get 30,000 votes in this way.

Tom Dixon's sermon last Sun day in New York? was a political har angue from his pulpit against, free sil ver. It was out of place and infamous, not to say blasphemous. -, One of his congregation challenged Dixon to a pub lic debate of the silver ; question and went up to the pulpit and handed Dixon his card and walked out of the church, followed by ahout 150 others, i Dixon proceeded after this ; interrup tion, but was again interrupted by puz zling questions and words of defiance and there were some harsh (words of denunciation from some of his congre gation that were out of place jas much as the sermon was. . . - The scene was a disgraceful bne, and it was indeed a surfeit of sensational ism that must have gratified the raven ous appetite of Dixon for notoriety. We have never taken stock n Dixon but some of our friends have, and on their accpunt wegret that he made such an as of himself in his ecclesias tical prize ring in New York, sometimes called a church, iln our uncharitable judgment this Dixon is an employee of Satan in the-livery of heaven, and skould be taken out of the Baptist church and join the Sanctified Band, if they would take him in their brothel, which we doubt. ; . -; We can understand why Dixon draws large crowds in his Sunday services. It is melancholy to think of the large crowds in the cities who have rio rever ence for God or respect for public senti ment, and we think they compose the congregation of Dixon. They; would attend in large numbers if he would tnrn a summersault in his pulpit before he opens his religious - burlesque and dance an elegant hornpipe just before the benediction. We are sorry that he was born in North Carolina. i Will Shuford Be Takeu Down ? Salisbury World. ', ij .. There is considerable talk among the Populists and Republicans of this Con gressional district looking towards tak ing Shuford down and substituting -L. C. Caldwell, of Statesville. It has been known all along that Mr. Shuford was the least acceptable man to the Repub licans that could have been nominated. And since his nomination many Re publicans have openly said that they would not vote for him, a Salisbury Re publican telling Mr. Shuford himself so here last week. The Populists knew that he was weak when they nominated him and is was only by the skin of his teeth that he received the nomination. The World - knows what, it is talking about when it makes these statements and while Mr. Shuford may not be stratched at the polls if he stays up. How's Tnls!

Butler on North Carolina. :i T" Senator Butler said Saturday that "in North Carolina there is no proba bility of a fusion of the Populists with any other party on the electoral ticket, but I think that the Popu lists may be trusted to see that the elec toral vote of the State does not go to McKinley and the gold standard. The local conditions are such that under' no circumstances should the legislature be given to the Democrats. I repeat, howeyer, that the State will be safe for Bryan in any event.

Morrison, ' pastor of the Presbyterian church at Matthews, was stricken speechless with paralysis last Sunday while in the midst of his ser mon. He stopped in the midst of sentence, and turning around walked to a chair and sat down. Some of the congregation hurried to him and found that he was speechless. The Republicans offered to give the Populist the Governor now if the I Pop ulists would publicly promise to support Pritchard for the Senate. The Populists replied that such a promise would utterly destroy them ; that they could not carry their followers at one step to- support Pritchard, and it was therefore beet to poetpone action in regard to the gover norship tell later. This is the situation as it leaked out. The Democrats and Populist in Kan sas effected fusion, giving the Populists all the State officers and giving the Democrats the Presidential electors, The electors, however, are instructed to vole for Vice-President for either Sewal or Watson, whichever has the most votes in the other States. Tom Watson spoke in Kansas twice this week, and induced he middle-of-the-road Pop ulists to call a State convention to put up straight Populist electors.
