AT ELK PARK.
Messrs -Britt and Bellamy in Joint
Discussion Choice Epithets of Mr.
Bellamy Left Three Ap
pointments. Hk Park, N.- C, July 19. After the
speaking at Bakersville on the l&th
Messrs. Britt and Bellamy, by arrange
merit between the chairmen of the
democratic and republican committee,
met in joint discussion the following
day at Elk Park. An equal "division of
time was to be given each one, Prof.
Britt to open the discussion. Upon
reaching this place Mr. Bellamy de
clared he would speak first and speak
as long as he desired and then should
have a rejoinder".
Notwithstanding the fact that two
thirds of the crowd were republican
and -were averse to listening to the lit
tle, shot gun, red shirt, Simmons regu
lator, rotten egg talk for one and a
half hours (that being twenty minutes
over the time allotted to him 0y the
two chairmen) they listened to Bel
lamy until a prominent republican call
ed his attention to the intrusion. Bel
lamy refused to stop, but continued for
fifteen minutes longer.
During the time occupied by this dis
tinguished ring democrat he twice re
ferred to Mr. Britt as a "red-legged
grasshopper," and used other epithets
which no man could afford to -use who
desired the respect of decent people,
andt he referred to Judge Adams, Who
will be the next governor of. North
Carolina, as being a "former hireling in
a livery stable" and "working . along
side of a negro." j Bellamy, after hav
ing acknowledged that he was in the
legislature and assisted in and voted
for the passage of the law prohibiting
the taking from the state of North
Carolina any negro, with a fine of
$1,000 and'one year in the state prison
upon the offender, said in the conclu
sion of his remarks that if the demo
crats failed to carry the proposed
amendment by votes they would do so
at the point of the bayonet. This
same King of Negro Howlers said
that since the late civil war North Car
olina had not produced a single man
whom he, would consider a brainy man.
After Mr. Bellamy had taken his
seat and prepared paper and pencil to
take notes James J. Britt addressed
the crowd. He had not been speaking
over five .minutes when he had com
pelled Mr. Bellamy to acknowledge
having prevaricated in several in
stances. Mr. Bellamy only wrote a
very few notes for reply until he be
came so nervous he decided to move on
in the direction of Boone, where it is
cooler for him, having left three adver
tised appointments In Mitchell unfill
ed. Mr. Britt spoke about two hours
to the most attentive crowd I ever
saw, making a fine impression upon all
present, and to make a long talk short
he simply wiped the earth with Mr.
Bellamy, blotting out every shadow of
a point- on the opposite side, and did
nis work in a scholarly and most gen
teel manner, in so much that democrats
paid him the highest compliments. He
left next morning for Plumtree, N. C,
and other points In Mitchell, where he
will enlighten the voters upon the rot
ten schemes of the proposed amend
ment. A VOTER.
DISCOURAGING TO SOLDIERS.
Adjutant General R oyster says there
will be no encampment this year. It
appears that only about $8 000 was
available for encampment. There are
forty companies and naval divisions
who get a $250 annual allowance, thus
making $40,000; the adjutant general's
department costs $1,000, as does the in
spection of troops, while the quarter
master's department costs $1,500 and
allowances to regiments and incident
als say $500, making a total of $13,000,
while the annual appropriation is $16,
000. The soldiers of the Second and
Third regiments wanted to go into
camp at "Wrightsville; the First to
camp at Asheville or else take a prac
tice march. The Greenville company
has been accepted and mustered in
and assigned to the Second regiment

Long A'dytrtiitd Barbecue a Failure
Democratic Leaden Uneaty.
Marion, N. C, July 20. The speak
ing and grand barbecue which has
been so-long advertised for the Hon.
W. T. Crawford, at Wood lawn,, in this
county, yesterday proved a great fail
ure. There were (according to dem
ocratic reports) not over thirty per
sons there, part of whom were repub
licans. The excuse democrats have
been urging for their not being able to
get crowds in McDowell county hereto
fore has been that the -people were
busy with their crops. But" they have
little to say of this failure except to
own that the people are ick and tired
of their talk. It is undestood now
that they are growing very uneasy as
to how the masses of the people who
say nothing but still refuse to come to
their rallies and their speakings are
going to vote in this struggle between
the strong and the weak.
Some of the county democratic can
didates after a few days meeting with
the people have lost faith in the merits
of the party they represented and are
wild in their desperation, resorting to
personal attacks which they are unable
to maintain against thedr opponents,
who are well known to the people ol
the county to be among her cleanest
and very best citizens. Democratic
leaders here are growing more uneasy
every day. W. T. M.

Annual Assembly at Montreal Now
in Session
On Sunday, July 15, there opened at
Montreat the annual assembly of
Christian workers, which for some
months past has been eagerly looked
forward to by many Christians through
out this and other states north and
south, east and west. For weeks prep
arations have been going on for the
accommodation of many guests who
iiajd declared their intnetion to visit
Montreat at ithis time and Mr. Gales
and his assistant, Mr. Maguire, may
well congratulate themselves upon the
success of their efforts in this line.
The opening services were held on
Sunday last, the platform being occu
pied by Dr. J. A. Quarles, of the
Washington and Lee University of Vir
ginia. Dr. Quarles is one of the few
men who possess a logical and analyti
cal mind and a graceful and earnest
delivery coupled with spiritual depths
and power, presenting his clear-cut
thoughts in such a manner as to carry
conviction with them. His series of
lectures are upon the evidences of
(Christianity, and will continue through
the week. So far the music has been
a strong force in the meetings, having
been conducted by Mrs. Gales, until
the arrival Tuesday of Mr. E. O. Sel
lers, known so well and favorably to
many in Asheville.
The evangelistic service Sunday after
noon was conducted by Evangelist
Gales. There were present besides the
new arrivals at Montreat many people
from the surrounding country. People
to attend the assembly ' are arriving
daily.
Dr. E. O. Guerrant came on the 20th
instant to participate in the platform
work. It is a widespread hope that the
one fare round trip to Montreat, grant
ed by the Southern last summer, will
be also continued this year. '

Ill CATAWBA COUNTY.
apeech. by Hon. Clandins Dockery ,
Prospects Good in the Conn ty.'
Newton, N. C, July 20. iA. crowd" of .
about 200 of Catawba county's best eft- '
izens gathered at Cat Fish, ten miles .
from Newton, yesterday to hear Lieu
tenant Governor Charles Reynolds,
and Hon. Claudius Dockerv address
the voters on the issues of the day.
Governor Reynolds was called away
and could not be present but Mr.
Dockery, after being introduced toy M.
A. Newland, Esq., in a few appro-
priate remarks, delivered one of the
most masterful and eloquent antl-
aunruuiucut s pet; i; ues m&i. nas Deea
heard in Catawba county in a long:
thne. Many old soldiers were present
who served under Mr. Dockery's fath
er in the war between the states, ant -after
listening to Mr. Dockery for
nearly two hours came forward and
assured him that they would vote
against the amendment.
Tour correspondent also saw at Cat
Fish a gentleman who was at Taylors
ville Wednesday and he reports that
the court house was literallly packed
during Mr. Dockery's speech.
iMr. Newland brought Mr. Dockery
to Newton, where he took the train for
Connelly's, to speak today, and where
he hopes Governor Reynolds will be
able to join him.
Unless the most unmitigated frauds
are practiced in the election Catawba
county can safely be put down for 500
majority against the amendment. The
republicans and populists are a unit In
favor of manhood suffraere a fair eleo.-
rtion and a fair count. They laujrh at
Simmons' open letter to President Mc
Kinley and also his puerile threat to
arrest every citizen who swears out a
warrant for the violation of the law by
dishonest election officers. The ap
pointment of negro poll holders in the
eastern counties by the white suprem
acy gang Is also making many votes
against the amendment In this county
as it convinces them that the white su- '
premacy cry is a fraud.
