OOUNCHX, of Watauga, Electnn at tanre-DAN HUGH McUCAK, of ftarnett, and LKK B. OVERMAN, ot Rowan. We regret having to refer Again in our columns to the vaporing of the Jefferson Ph. triot over the election of J. A. Denny as a delegate to the Itemoeratic State Conven tion from Watauga ronnty, but it came out last week wltVa column and a half of characteristic lot, oi an ex ceedingly low order, totally wanting in all the elements of manly reasoning and com inonseiise. We therefore ask our readers to pardon us fur again referring to the matter to define the position we take on it. Mftf 'nnltr tha PofrSot deliver itself of this great pro duction of its genius but. law yer H. H. McNeil, of Jeffei son, came to BoonelastSaturday to the Republican Conven tion, without invitation or solicitation on the part of our Republican friends, as we have been informed, and he said a little speech after the convention, which was, i n part, identical in style and expression with the article in the paper. In fact his words were largelv the same and the substance entire; of the ditoriul In the Patriot hence we conclude that either, law yer McNeil left his little speech lyiug around loose, and the Patriot stole it and appro priated it before its author if Mild rescue itjrcr that law yer McNeil seized the Tiit riot's manuscript and bolted post-haste tD deliver himself of the burden before the ar rival of the1 paper, or that the aforesaid McNeil is the anthorof the article in the Patriot, and sundry other dirty squibs, that appear in the pa jier from week to week, and that he is hiding behind the pretended editor of that paper, and we will treat and regard them aft one and the same. Now we will repeat our for mer statements and position. The Patriot said that the democrats of Watauga coun ty sent a negro delegate to the State Convention at Ral eigh. We simply said that , this was a lie because it was that and nothing else, and used such other language as the case seemed to demand and nothing more. The Pa triot in reply declared that J. A. Denny, a negro, was elected, if not sent, to the State Convention by thedem ocrats of ffatauga countv. , The said McNeil also made the same charge in his speech at Boone Saturday. Reply ing to them the Democrat admitted that J. A. Denny's name was on the Itat of dele gates elected, but denied that he fi a negro, ; and we said tht the Patriot roust estab- VIJj sts statement or stand cavfeted of lying again. This the editor doe not at tempt but Comes on t with a load of stuff in which we seel nothing but an effort to ere ate the impression ;. that we ha ve been abusi e and unfair and that we have failed to mention onr position.-. , J Now if the Patriot wants a general idea as to J. A. Den ny'H color, we will state for its benefit that we have heard of several republicans, good citizens of Watauga county, who heard the speaking last Saturday, saying that John Denny was as white, looking man as lawyer McNeil, Some said that he was the whiter, but we will not express our opinion as we haye never seen them together. We do know, however, that his hair is straight er than lota of white men we know of, , and we don't have the remotist idea that they have a drop of negro blood in their veins. We hope this will be satisfac tory to our friend, and if it is not good evideuce we Can't help it. Now this is all we desire to sy on the subject and hope that it will drop. As to the assertions that we hate been intolerant or unmanly we will8ubmit to the judgment of any number of the fair- minded, honest republicans of either Ashe or Watauga county, as to our fairness and moderation, under the circumstances, a n if as to whether or not we have main tamed our position without descending to low abuse and innuendo, if the Patriot will do the same. We know that they do not endorse 8u?hlov- down com tempt ible meth ods as the Patriot and other mushroom campaign sheets of its character, are employ ing to enflame the passions and excite the prejudice of those of the people who do not read anything reliable and responsible for its utter ances. Now we will not refer to this matter again, and trust that the above will be under stood, and satisfactory to our excitable brother, hid in the dark shadows of the majestic Negro Mountain On Wednesday the 53rd. the editor of the Democbat in company with Atty. J. C. Netcher. left Boone forSuth- eiland, N. C. where we arriv ed in the evening and spent the night with Mr. W. R. Lor ill where up were loyally treated by himself myf wife.

SCOTT 0E,CaiiMYt wrre EHULSWK on Thursday the 24th inst. On thd morning of the 24th horsemen to the number of 100 to 150 formed in line at Sutherland and rode to meet the next Governor.; The flag bearing the words, f'fo'r Gov ernor, C. B. Aycock" was car ried by J ohnson Cornett, a life long Republican, and the chief marshal of the day was James Cornett another Re publican. They met Mr. Ay cock rwar Maxwell's on New Riyer and escorted him amid cheers and applaus9 Vj Mr. Tboe. Sutherland's, where he got dinner. In the meantime it had begun to rain and the good people of the com inan ity invited the crowd into the Methodist church at that place. The church was filled to overflowing there being in the crowd more than 500 peo pie. v. " ": Hon W. C. Fields, the pres ent Senator from this district led off in an excellent speech of an hour telling the people why he pursued-the course he did in the legislature of 1899, and wheii he was done we decided that he had made a good steward and a wor thy legislator. After him, came Mr. S. L. Patterson, democratic candidate f o r Commissioner of Agriculture,! who, in a short speech, ex plained the. nature and the duties cf bis office, arid will make a good officer. Then the next Governor of this State spoke tor more tha nan hour, and such a speech it is seldom the fortune of one to hear. The people hung on his words with rnf t attention. It wad a speech sound, logical, clean, clear and convincing. He gave reasons whr the peo pie of North Carolina should pass this Constitutional A mendment that were abso lutely unanswerable. It was a great day for democracy at Sutherland. Of the 500 or 600 people at the speak ing, fully one half were repuh licans, and they gave, splen did attention. We were told and are well satisfied that the speech did great good for the amendment and can scarcely see how any man can vote against itafterhear ing Mr, Aycock speak. Bailroad Mass Meeting.
