From Present Indications tbe larger and More Influential Element of the Party Believe that the Adaption of the Con stitution is Inevitable and that the Republicans Should Prepare to Make the Best of the Situation.

The convention will be called to order at 10 o'clock tomorrow morn ing by J. L. Hamon, chairman of the state committee. The work of the convention, in the language of the offi cial call, will be to decide what will be the policy of the Republican party relative'to the rejection or adoption of the proposed constitution; to make a declaration of party principles; to -elect a state 'committee and a chairman of the state central committee, and to nominate candidates for state officers, should the convention decide -to make such nominations. Talks among the delegates already on the scene show that there is still a considerable difference of opinion as to the wiser course for the party to pur sue. Some are still outspoken in favor of the convention refusing to nominate a state ticket and preparing to fight the adoption of the eonstitution to the laat ditelu - Those in fcvor of following this course, however, are apparently not nearly so numerous as they were a month .ago, before the Constitutional convention had reassembled and made changes in the document to meet the objections of a coctsiderable element of the population. From present indications the larger and more influential element of the party believe that the adoption of the constitution is onevitable and that the Republicans should prepare to make the best of the situation by naming a state ticket andotherwise placing itself ina position Us put up a good fight at the first election.

Washington Star Sounds a Timely Note. It Is Said That Politicians Are Seeking to Cajole Him into Indiscreet Utterances. (By special wire to The Argus.) Raleigh, N. C, July 31. Governor Glenn's friends here do not think he will allow the politicians to tempt him into indulging in verbal performances that will place him in a bad light with the people of" the country, with whom, irrespective of polities, he has, almost in a day, achieved an enviable reputa tion as a clear-headed and business like Governor of all the people. But that he is being besought in that di rection there is no doubt. He has been invited to visit Brook lyn a month hence, and this has al ready been referred to as the first effort on the the part of the politicians to cajole and use him. Governor Glenn's friends here today read with great interest a timely edi torial in the Evening Star of Washing ton, warning the Governor against the m achinations of the politicians, especi ally while the railway cases are yet m court to be adjudicated. Gov. Glenn in conversation with your correspondent this afternoon stated for the first time, that he had not had suf ficient time to seriously consider the matter of his name being presented to the Democratic national convention; that the freight rate fight now coming on, and other matters of State, are claiming his attention, but he would say, that he did not think the time is fully ripe for the nomination of a Southern man for president. However, if the convention should think it wise to choose a candidate frorjf ' the South there are a number who could be se lected, abler and more available than he. . Still, the Governor left the impres sion that his mind has not been defi nitely made up to forbid the use of his name, and h4 may have something more to say later. OODSBORO'S TOBACCO MAR KET OPENED IN FINE HAPE TODAY. Both Warehouses KaT Big Breaks, and the Prices Paid Were Highly Satisfactory to the Farmers. WE'VE GOT THE THE BEST MARKET IiV EAST. Fully one hundred and fifty thousand pounds of tobacco encumbered the spa cious floors of our two sales warehouses . for today's opening of the Goldsboro Market lor the season. Of course the quality of the weed was by no means the best first curings never are, and therefore the fine prices realized in the sales were the more gratifying to the farmers. Not a single tag was "turned" in today's sales, which is most remarkable; and is as encouraging as it is unusual. Some piles sold for 15 1-2; but the' gen eral average was about 8 1-2; with scrap selling at an average of 3 1-2. At the Planters' Warehouse one pile of Mr. S. II. Pate's sold for 21.50 per hundred, and his other piles, of which" there were several averaged $13. This was the best sale of the day. A full corps of buyers are on hand,, and the Cipldsbpr'o market is now ready to give the farmers the very best price to be realized anywhere in Eastern North Carolina.
