Th eaiiTaai was opened in this
oounty this week. For sreral das
poateri had been pu ap throughout
the ooroty announcing that George
EL Brown, Jr the Democralio c&odi
date tor Elector, and.George A. Spar
row, the Republican candidate for
Elector in this district, wo old open
the campaign in a joint discussion, at
Bay Greek, in this county, -on Thurs
day, the 13th; at Smith's Greek , on
the 14th, and at Stonewall on the
11th at night. i
f The weather was pool and propi
tious and quite a large concourse of
both Democrats and Republicans
turned out to meet heirfrespectiTe
Candidates and to hear thetn disonsa
the issues, dividing the two parties in
this political eontesti t
f At Bay Greek George $L Brown,
Jr., the representative of the Dem
ocratic aide, put J in nis ap-
bearanoe Dromptly i armed and
equipped, ready fpr the action,
but Sparrow, the Rebublian candi
date, was not thar.t After waiting
about one hour for .Mr. Sparrow, aud
he itill failing to put fin ma appear
anee, Mr. Brown proceeded to a dis
etusion of the issues.: The Republi
cans looked discouraged when they
saw that their new conrertio Repub
licanism, to whom they hai entrusted
the safe keeping of the Republican
interest in this district, hid fled the
track and taken to the woodi so early in
the fight. Many were the conjectures
as to his non-appearance. Some of
those who were wont to be of his po
litical followers were unable to ao
oount Jot his failure to keep his
promises; while some rerefreadr to
say, Well, we hare played the deuce I
by entrusting our cause to tne nanas
of a political deserter; .hat the
Republidan party lad fgot left
every time they had taken
the broken down political jades,
who had left the Democratic party;
for the party's good, and that tbey
were opposed to giving to those po
litical renegades the front seats in the
Republican synagogu any longer.
Democrats tried to cher them by as
suring them that Republicanism with
its false theories and Corrupt record
could not confront Democracy and its
truths its pure record and? its jus
tioe, which the Republicans Were will
ing to accept as correct after listen
ingfor one and quarter hottri to
the elooaent address kt that chiTal-
rons Democrat, George H. Brown, Jr.
llr. Brown's speech ? was m plain,
common -sense argument, plainly and
tersely put. .He showed that the Re
publicans in this campa'en as in
ormer campaigns, . were trying to
aflraia tet control of I the ifiroTern-
ment by -deception; that they, would
not state the issue i so , tbat the
people; V ould . understand what
they meant or wnat tney mtenaea.

the simple question now was, which
party woull they entrust with the re
vision and reduction. ; The Republi
can party, whose record; inT tariff re

tenant, the Rev. George M. Pallas
Langston, the prohibiticn candidate

vide time, whioh Mr. Brown consent
ed to for that once. ;. Mr. Lahgston
began by saying he was ihere in the
inbmt at th JrahihitiAn. rri, thjt
church and God, and that he was not
the ally of any party, as the Prohibi-
tion partv had been accused of being.
After floundering around in about a
fourth ' ' rate preacher style for
about ten minutes he got up fcteam,
threw open his throttle and riway he
went. After having denied that the
Prohibition party was anjannex; of the
Republican party he began a I tirade
of abuse against the Democratic pax-.
ty, charging them with 9 every thing
that he could think of and a good deal
that he oould not think of, never once
saying a word against the Republican
party, ue said tne democrats nao, a
good deal to say about "giggerirule,"
and then asked the anestion:! "Are
we hot just as well off under iigger
rule as under DemocraticTule Tf Still
he tried to make it appear that he
was not working in the; interest of
the Republican party, but his actions
were so much louder than his words
(and his words were loud enough, for
he roared) .that he failed to get any
one to take tickets to tne side show.
Mr. Brown showed the position of
the Third party, which he said he
could not reoognize as i party;, but
aimplv a very small fraction! of a
party. : rr'- r : 1

WASHMOToa, SepL 19 SaaTK
. Mr. Edmunds reported' from the
committee on foreign relationp, the
following order:
Ordered that the President t f the
Senate be directed to withhold the
transmission to the Hoase; of Repre
sentatives of the act (Houses bill) to
prohibit the coming of Chinese labor
ers to the Unite States until further
direction of the ; Senate. , He asked
for its immediate consideration. :
Mr. Teller objected to its present
consideration, and the" order went
over till tomorrow. '
Mr. Vest inquired of the presiding
officer what the effect of non-action
on the proposed order would" be, but
no reeponse was made. f- .
Mr. Edmunds also offered a joint
resolution appropriating 1,100,000 to
be expended under the direction of
the President of the United States
in the relief of suffering caused by
the yellow fever now prevailing in. the
State of Florida, and asked for its
immediate consideration. It was ob
vious, he said, from tablio reports.
about which there could be ho doubt,
that that dangerous and fatal plague
was rapidly ;spreading,not only in the
stricken State of Florida, but into
adjacent States, and a vast amount of
suffering was being caused thereby.
The appropriation for ! restraint
and quarantine of the disease could
not be used! in aid Of the auffererj.
He thought,therefore, that while the
citizens of the United States were
contributing out of their private
means as liberally as they Wight in
aid of these stricken people,! the
whole people of the United States
ought (for the sake of humanity and
the public good) to contribute out of
the Treasury of the United-"States to
aid, not only the sick, but those; who
have left their homee, nd to ; help
those communities In their ,-dreadful
distress. :; It was not within 'the com
petency of the legislature 1 of Florida
to provide for the exigency.; Under
such eonditioha he knew ef io better
use to make of part of the public
money than to make this eontribn.
tion to be expended under the direc
tion of the President of the United
States immediately. il ! i
- Mr. Brown inquired wbyl the. ap
propriation j should be confined to
Florida while the disease was spread
ing in other j States. 'U " i
Mr. Edmunds It is not' 'confined
to ? the Sfak of Florida. It
is in aid of ail sufferers ) wherever
they may be, whether in Georgia,
North Carolina,1 the City of Washing
ton, or anywhere else. i .

Dockery has perhaps the worst
memory f any man in North Caro .
lina. Some people would say he was
most almighty ; story-teller ; other
people would perhaps use other
terms. We content ourselves, how
ever, with saying he has a very bad
memory, that is to say, for a man not
yet entirely in his dotage.
As usual we don't ask people to
take our word for what we say, but
only to read the following "passes"
between Judge Fowle and the Colonel
at different places and see if what we
say is not true. CoL Dockery will
not deny the accuracy of the reports
of these "passes. s .
Here's the way it ran at Aaheboro:
CoL Dockery "The Republican
party has always been in favor of the
Blair bill." .
Judge Fowle How oomes it, then,
that on the 25th of August, 1888, Mr.
Wise of Virginia, replying to Mr. Vest,
said in the presence of the Republi
can leaders Tin Congress, that the Re
publicans were in the maioritv in
both Houses m 1880 and might have
passed the Blair bill then, but they
did not, ancs tney lied when they said
they wanted U, and the Republican
leaders were oamb.
Col. Dockery "Ther wasn8 ledu-
tionallbill beforeXJoncresB in 1880-81
Judge Fowle "Who. was the rep
resentative from Randolph conhtr in
1881? Is he in this crowd? Voice
in the crowd, What do you want
with him, Judgef
Judge Fowle. "If there was no
educational bill before Congress in
1880 '81, why was it, O Representa
tive of Randolph, that you on the
31st day of January, 1881, helped
adopt the following" resolution (for
which see Senate and House Journals):
"Resolved, That "our Senators
and Representatives in Congress be
requested to support the bill now be
fore Congress known as the 'Educa
tional bill.
"'Be it further resolved, That if
said bill does not provide for the ap
plication: of tne fund to primary
sohools exclusively then our said San-
ators and Representatives are hereby I
J requested to urge the adopt
; amendment to that effect.
ition of an
Bad memory, waanT it!
This is the way it was at Siler City:
JuJee Fowle "With the fall of
county government there will be a re-!
turn, in an piooaoiuty, to tue xtepuo
lioan mode of the election of judges
by districts and not by the Slate at
large. It tbat event, the Second Dis
trict will, most probably, elect a ne
gro judge, and how will tne people of
the Piedmont section feel, particular
ly those who are good, honest, con
scientious xKpuDiicans, wnen nis sa
ble honor is dispensing justice from
the seat Once occupied by a Gaston
and a Pearson?" j
Colonel Dockery "When I was a
member of the Convention of -1875 I
assisted in amending the Constitution
so as to prevent the very evil sug-
Sited, and I am surprised that my
tinguished opponent is not aware
of the fact that our superior court
judges must be elected by the State
at large.". ;
Judge Fowle "My distinguished
opponent commits an error in assert
ing tbat there is any sueb provision
in the Constitution f or in section 21
of Article IV, it i provided that the
General Assembly may, from time to
time, provide, by law, that the judges
may be chosen ; instead cf - by the
voters of the whole State by the
voters of their respective districts."
Was that bad memory, or was it
worseT it looks very much like
"story."
Again at Siler City.
Judge Fowle "Another argument
in favor of the present system of
county government is that, in case of
i its repeal, negro county superintend
ents of public instruction will be
elected in Halifax, Craven and other
negro counties, and the Toung white
girl teachers of eastern North Caro
lina will have to be examined by them
in order to obtain certificates of qual
ification."
Colonel! Dockery "There is no
danger of the election of negro oounty
i superintendents. Mv opponent can'
not point to a single negro county
superintendent elected' under the old
system." ' k '
Judge Fowle "The reason none
was elected was because there was no
such office until 1879 after the pres
ent system of county government
went into operation.
And how is that , for "bad mem-
ory"7 How. is it lor a "story T
Doesn't it look like a "story" and
'bad memory" very much mixed
what some people call a no
such of a thing" 7
ThU tweet little thing occurred at
JieidevtUe:
Colonel ' Dockery "I did study
law at Judge Battle's one term, but
when I found that by pursuing the law
I would go to bell I left it"
judge x owie July opponent ten
the law and became the most expert
politician ot his party. Some people
may not uuna tnat ne increased nia
chances for Heaven by going from the
law to politics. But however that
may be, in his magnanimity, although
he himself has avoided the path which
he avers leads to hell, he has, I have
been informed, induced a favorite son
to take the fatal road and apply for
his license in October. He thinks he
has saved his own bacon, but his boy
may go ahead on that road."
This is perhaps the "cheekiest," oi
all. Dockery studied law in 1848, or
thereabouts (he graduated at Chapel
Hill in June, ;1848), and not until
1888, if we are correctly informed,
did he ioin the church,f orty long years
after be cays he leit the law to seep
from going to helL Does any one be-
lieve a word of Ut Does, he believe
a word of it? If he did, would he
make his son a lawyer! But Dockery
is possibly a member of the church
on the same schedule tbat be is a I
member of the Alliance that he
doesn't hold himself bound to follow
either its precepts or its practices.
Oh, Dockery) bat you area sweet

to withhold, until further direction of
