As so many of our readers are in
terested in the Baptist cause, we sur
render our outside editorial space on
Sunday morning for their benefit.
The proceedings of the Baptist State
Convention will be found interesting
to all who would like to see what a
denomination thai numbers 160,000
members in North Carolina is doing
for Christ and the establishing of His
Kingdom upon earth.
We have only space to say that
the last thing on tbe tapis ia a Grant

Judge Settle's chances for the second
place on the Presidential ticket,
The Baltimore Sun's Washington let

"Leading Democrats in North Carolina
are said to have given tbe assurance that

Referring to Mr. W. T. Walters, of
Baltimore, in connection with the

Brown, of Georgia, -recently paid
that gentleman a very high compli

paragraph:

more to aid this section practically, and
sometimes to his detriment, than any per
son or oar acquaintance in this region . lie
will, as Gov. Brown says, prove a mighty
(actor lor good in tbe management."
Mr. Walters is well known in Wil
mington by reason of his connection
with two of our leading railways, and
we believe he is entitled to all we
have quoted in his behalf.
The Greatest mistake.
LChandler'a Last Speech.
Mistakes we undoubtedly make
errors we committed but, in my
judgment, the greatest mistake we

Oxford Free Lance Report Condensed.
Second Day.
The hour of the special order hav
ing arrived, the report of the Board
of Education was taken up and dis
cussed at length by a number of del
egates. rrot. L. K. Mills was gratified
that the report of ministerial educa
tion was so flattering. There are now
twenty-five young men at Wake
Forest College, twice as many as or
dinary, lhere is a growing interest
in the education of young ministers.
Some of these students at the Col
leges are there by their own efforts;
others are sent by churches and As
aociations. The Board is ndw aiding
twelve young men,
DrrPritchard had during the past
year visited twelve Associations. The
progress and increased interest in
the Christian work is great through-
out all the bounds of the jurisdiction.
Nowhere in the State have the
Baptists such a strong hold as in
Granville, and the reason of this is
that the county has the very kind of
preachers needed.
There should be a larger number
of students at Wake Forest seventy
five young men in the State - are
about to enter the ministry.
W. H. Pace, Esq , appealed to the
laymen of tbe denomination to come
forward and contend with the minis
ters in the matter of keeping up the
cause. The preaohers have given the
greater portion of the amount raised,
and he was ashamed of the laymen.
His appeal evidently was felt, and re-
sponses came much more rapidly after
