Association is employing col-1 ored spouters to organize gold clubs! among the colored-voters of the' South. One of them has been as. signed to a three weeks' job in North Carolina.-after which he will go to South - Carolina, to corrall the innocents i.n the gold clubs. This is to prevent them from votinc 'for Bryan and Sewall, which it is feared many of .them will do if they can't be headed off. .There is a chance for Arthur Smith, of Kansas, and in fact all the other Smiths, to vote this' year. Twenty years ago Arthur swore he would never vote for another Presi dent until a man west of the Missis sippi river was nominated. Mr. Smith has felt somewhat lonesome jin Presidential years, but this year he will have lots of com Dan v and will pop it in for Bryan. Mr. Armour didn't expect to do a very extensive business with his Mexican dollar object lesson, as he imported only $12,000. By the way, if he kept on importing there would be a chance to make some money by trading with him, and laying up the change." for if free silver carries those Mexican dollars will be worth considerably more than 50 cents. A French engineer claims to have invented a method ot supporting ships on hollrw rollers, by which a speed of sixty miles an hour may be attained. Instead of going through the water they glide over it. His success with a small model has en couraged him, to build a large boat. The Knoxville Tribune, gold standard, but now supporting the Democratic ticket, utters the follow ing rock-bottom declaration: "The Democratic party should never be sacrificed to the interests of any one man or to tbe selfish schemes of any set of men." Defeat has its compensations sometimes. If Gov. Morton bad been nominatebTfor the Presidency he would have to spend much of his time conferring with Boss Piatt and wouldn't .have as much time to in terview his calves as he has now. Manager Hanna made some 'dis coveries while in the East. . One of these was "that the free silver sentif ment is stronger in the East than most people think." That's what he told bis Republican friends after he got back to Cleveland. . Some of the gold organs in the East have discovered that the free silver sentiment ' is "on the wane.' It is a little too early to kill it yet. By the way, those rousing receptions to candidate Bryan don't indicate much of a wane. HEW AD VEBTISKMEB TS. Clydi Line Sailing4ays.

DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE: COMMIT TEE AGAIN IN SESSION. Batler' Proposition for Fusion WitttDemo oratfl Begarded m IaalBoere-FUylng Guns of Blaff Republican Iieaderi BoUing la to be ITmi thePopn- I lata When the People' Party : Oonvention Meeta. , f Special Star Correspondence . Raleigh, Aug. 11, 1896. : The Demacratic Executive Con mitt ee went icto a secret meeting ag lin this morning, though with a decreased atten dance, as many of the members return ed to their homes early this-morning. Batler'a proposition to fuse with Dem ocrats on Congressional and State mat ters was the political sensation yester day. Io?etd few people believe Butler is sincere. They rather think that be is playing his bluff game in order to draw the Democrats oat. It is a noticeable act that Butler is giving nothing out himsslf. Ic is not believed that Batler could induce the Populist State Conven tion at its meeting here on the 13th to' fuse with the Democrats on Congres sional and State matters. To be'sure, it is currently stated that he would have a difficult job in inducing the convention to accept the Democratic committees proposition for electoral fusion. Butler's statement that he could not recommend the plain proposition for electoral fusion seems to be a knocker ent. If that be the case fusion is at an end. No one can tell, for Batler is too great a bluffer. Of course there are some Democrats who favor Butler's last proposition for complete fusion. There is no telling what this week will bring torth. Judge Russell arrived this morning. A. S. Peace, S. G. Hamrick, and W. A. Guthrie, leading Populists, caue in this morning, Buck Kttchin came last evening, as did Congressman Pearson. It is noticeable that the Republicans are rolling in early so as to be near the Pop ulists in their labors this week. It is said that a Populist can't do anything now. unless he has several Republicans around him. In Martin county, the Populists have offered to select a non-partisan Board of County Commissioners, , each party to h&vs equal representation. This is said to be tne Populist idea, where the latter bavan't a majority. Ed. Johnson says the Republicans of this' district will nominate a'goldbug, whether it is done to-day or in conven tion. ' There was a good rain in the eastern part of this county yesterday. Gov. Carr returned to-da; from Blow ing Kock. Special Star Teieeram. A large number of Populists have ar rived here to attend the Populist State Convention. Those from Vance and a lew irom otner counties are swearing against Batler. They say that he is trying to deliver tbe Populist party over to the Democrats. Rowland, of Vance county, says that Butler Is a traitor, Brown, who was found guilty of forging the assignment act, says the Popalists will never submit to fusion with Demo crats. Some one asked Buck Kttchin whether the Populists were going -to fuse with Democrats or Republicans. "Don't 'talk to me about fusing with Republicans," said Back. A. S. Perce, of Granville, has a strong following for Secretary of State. The presence of a large nu Tiber of Republicans here who spend most ot their time jollying the Populists, is very noticeable. Senator Butler's proposition to Chair man Manly gave the Populists five electors and the Democrats six; it pro vided for a division of the Congressional districts, each party to take four and fight it out for the; mastery in the second. The Populists were to have tbe first, fourth, seventh and, eighth dis tricts, and the Democrats tbe third, fifth,' sixth and ninth. The party . that took the Senator was not to name the Governor, The ether State officers were to be equally divided. This proposition was submitted several days ago and had the endorsement of the Populist Central Committee. Chairman Manly 's reply, agreeing to give the Democrats six elec tors and the Populists five, was received by Senator Butler this afternoon. It was in writing, ss was the Populists' proposition. Nothing was said of State and Congressional fusion. The Podu- lists announce that they will answer Mr. Manly s reply in the morning, alter a meeting of their executive committee. A prominent Populist declares that fusion with the Democrats is at an end, since they have failed to consider their -proposition for complete fusion. LBy United Press to tbe Star.! Raleigh, N. C, August 11. Mr. Clement Manly, chairman of the Demo cratic State Committee, this afternoon made a proposition on behalf of the Democratic party to Chairman Butler, of the Populist Committee, tor a divi slon of tbe electoral ticket, the Demo crats to take six and the Populists five Ud to to-night no reply has been made. It is believed, that Chairman Butler and bis committee will not recommend the proposition to their convention Thursday unless it also covers a fusion on the Congressional ticket with a like equal division. Many prominent Re publicans are here watching the pro ceedings with great interest Foatal Telegraph. Mr. W. B. Scattergood, the clever and efficient manager of the Postal Telegraph Company in this citv since its opening here in 1890, tbe Star regrets to leain Will leave Friday f jr Atlanta, Ga., to take charge of the Postal Telegraph of fice there. Mr. Scattergood has made a hosts of friends in this city who are sorry to see him leave and whose best wishes will follow him to his new field. Mr. Scattergood will be succeeded here by Mr. R. P, Miles, of Richmond, Va., who is well-known in telegraphic circles.

Conaiderable Damate to Cotton-Corn Also Injured All Cropa Need H tin-Conditions Becoming Setiouf. The weekly crop bulletin issued by the North Carolina Experiment Station says: The past week has been on the whole tbe most unfavorable of the entire season. The conditions of extreme heat and dryness, which began over -two weeks ago, continue unabated. While the mean temperature has been only from 4 to 6 degrees above the normal per day the maximum again 'reached over 100 degrees. Showers occurred at half dozen points on the 2d and 3d, but were altogether insufficient in amount; the deficiency for the State for this week is nearly 1.50. Bright sunshine prevailed. The effect of these condi tions on crops has been bad in all dis tricts," except at some points in tbe soutneast portion , and in the mountain ous sections. Cotton continues to deterio- ate; very many correspondents report that bolls and leaves are shedding badly; at places the plants are wilting; no top crop seems to be formiog; the crop is opening tdo rapidly. Although it is ess? to overeit mate the damage to cotton, all evidences show that it has been considerable. Still if good rains occur this week there will be some re covery. Corn has also been injured, and late corn wilt be a failure without rain soon. Much of the fodder of the old crop has been tu'led. and much is drying on, the stalk before it can be stripped. Curing tobacco is now pro gressing everywhere. Much firing is reported, and farmer are pulling lower leaves, which are curing bright but thin and light. Although peas, sweet pota toes and peanuts are good, they need rain badly. Sowing turnip seed has been stopped. The conditions are be coming serious, and there has been an unfor u late decline irom the fine crop prospects of two weeks ago. BY RIVER AND RAIL. Beeelpta of Naval Btoree and Cotton Teaterday.
