POLITICS IN ROBESON
The General Outlook is Full of
Hope for Democratic Sue- ,
cess This Fall.
THE MEETING ! AT NEW HOPE.
A Large Number of Croatans Present
Speeches by Jn. 0. Bellamy, Esq.,
and OthersBellamy Made
Fine Impression.
I Special Star Telegram.
MaXTON, N. Ci, August 26. The
meeting at New Hope to-day was at
tended by more ' than seven hundred
people, of whom' more than three
fourths were Croatans, the remainder
being white Democrats and Populists.
It was a picturesque, picnic with all
the attractions of the peculiar people
whose origin has given rise to so much
speculation. j i '
The. meeting was opened by Rev. J.
A. Blanks, an educated Croatan, who
speaks with remarkable fluency and
vigor. S. A. Edmond, clerk of the
Superior Court of Robeson county,
and bellwether of the Fusion gang,
was the first speaker. His speech was
an appeal to class prejudice and was
full of reckless assertion. He was fol
lowed by Col. N.' A. i McLean, better
known as "Neil Archie," in an ex
ceedingly strong effort He paid special
attention to the demagogue Edmond,
and gave him a most merciless exco
riation, which the audience received
with evident satisfaction! Dr. Nor
ment, the Independent Republican
candidate for Congress, followed in a
speech of an hour. It was straight
Republican stuff," with many loving
-references to the negro and numerous
well-timed thrusts at Oflice Hunter
Dockery, who of course was not pres
ent, although invited.
Next came Jno. D. Bellamy, Esq.,
who is already a prime favorite with
the Croatans, and who spoke for an
hour and a half. He piled argument
upon argument in favor of white rule
in 'North Carolina. His speech was
strong and compact and that portion
addressed specially to, the Croatans
was persuasive and convincing. He
riddled Office Hunter Dockery with
his rapid-fire guns, quoting his record
on him with telling effect
George B. McLeod made a short
but very effective speech, which, was
well received. George is a fine cam
paigner, and will be the next sheriff
of Robeson county
Aaron Locklear, a young Croatan of
good education, made a speech that at
tracted much attention. His appeals
to his people to stand by the Demo
cratic party, which has always stood
by them, were vigorous and striking.
Rev. Cary Wilkins, one of the oldest
and most influential of the Croatans,
was speaking when I left about train
time. I have made a very careful and
conservative estimate of the present
political status of the Croatans, based
on diligent inquiry, and conversation
with at least twenty of their leading
men. At a low estimate they poll 600
votes in Robeson county. Of these
not more than fifty have heretofore
been Democratic." If the election were
held to-day I feel assured that 275: to
300 of the Croatans would vote the
whole Democratic ticket. Aud the
defection from the Republican party
is still . going on. Bellamy is very
strong with them and some of them
call the present movement the "Bel
lamy Rising."
The general outlook in Robeson
county is full of hope for Democr atic
success. The accessions from the
Populist ranks have not been exag
gerated, and there is no check to the
movement. Wi H.' B.

WHO' WON THE LAURELS?
The Judges in The Juvenile Refay Race
Yesterday Could Not Decide An
other Race Arranged.'
The bicycle relay racer yesterday
I afternoon in which expert juvenile
riders of the League fof r American
Wheelmen and the Carolina Cyle
. - T "
Club were the contestants, resulted in
i f
victory for neither team, in that a
misunderstanding as tp - the rules
which iwere not understood alike by
the' contending racers, caused the
judges to rule that the races must be
run oyer again. This did not prevent
the races from beiog highly interest
ing, and in fact being ini every other
way successful. j
ine nrst rider to reacn the tape on
the home run was Joe Hill for the L.
A. W. J that team having carried the
message over the seven and a half
mile course in 28 minutes and 13 sec
onds. "Walter Morris for the Carolina
Ccle-plub came in about four min
utes later.' The judges j were' Messrs.
A. P. Yopp, Ed. Heinsbferger and D.
E Murphy. . Mr. Hardy Le Gwin
served as starter, and Mr. Mat Taylor
was timekeeper. The trouble which
prevented the judges from ruling that
either team was victorious was that
at the three-mile post when the racers
started, on the home runi the L- A. W.
racer waiting to take, the message
went I up the track I about one
hundred yards to receive the
package and start on the home run.
This 'gave them about 200 yards ad
vantage. Then there was a conten
tion as to the rule governing the ad
justment of delays ' occasioned by
falls. The latter could however have
been settled satisfactorily, as there
were three falls on each side.
The race will be run oyer again Fri
day, September 9th. The same team
will be on the track and a detailed
agreement will be drawn up before the
contest is entered udob. The racers
and their order in the jrelay were as
follows: ' j
L. A. W., Capt Fisher Hill, Irvin,
Cantwell, Prempert and Jewett.
C. a O., Capt Morris W. Morris,
Honnett C. Price, Rowell and J.
Price, i j
Gn Friday of next week the L. A.
W, riders will have a test race to select
the first and second racing teams.
They will at once challenge the Caro
lina Cycle Club for a race as soon as
practicable. The second team is also
open for a challenge. ! -
DR. BR0UGHT0N CAN'T COME.
His Lectnre Advertised for Monday Night
Called Off Dr. Blackwell Will
Preach To-morirew.
Yesterday, evening about 6 o'clock
a telegram was received? from Dr. L.
G. Broughton, of Atlanta, saying that
it will be impossible for; him to be
here either Sunday or Monday. His
engagement, therefore, to preach at
the First Baptist churcjh on Sunday
and deliver his famous lecture, "A
Living Museum of Human Curiosi
ties" at the Opera House on Monday
night will not be filled,! much to the
regret of a host of Wilmingtonians.
A rare treat was in storei for them and
it is hoped that Dr. Broughton may be
able to visit the city on some future
date and fill a similar engagement
So far as the services at the First
Baptist Church are concerned, Dr.
Broughton will have ain able substi
tute, not unknown to the Wilming
ton congregation, in Rev, Dr. Black

: ' Negro Paper Negro Home.
The Daily Recent, the negro organ,
came out from 1 new quarters, on
Seventh, betweeft. Church and Nun
streets, yesterday Ifternoon. It claims
now that it is a negro paper, edited in
a building owned by negroes.
xne oniy aruciej or interest is one
which takes all tha point, out of the
resolutions adoptM by the' Republican
Executive Commytee, so far, at least,
as these went to sfiow that the. senti
ments of the negro editor were not
those of the colorta people generally.
The resolutions arip printed in full and
there are angry j-refutations -of the
charges made. .
The editor inquires, if he was a Mmis-
chief-making sin&Jleton," how was it
that he was sent o Washington with
Lockey not lon; since on a mission
that was not essentially that of a sim
pleton. He also ants to know where
Lockey got the 'authority for saying
that the Record WpUld suspend. Then
he says some yharp things about
Lockey 's candyacy for judicial
honors, and sayC that his course in
assembling the committee and dictat
ing the action t be taken was from
a hankering for populist votes, upon
which he will depend in his race for
she judgeship. , Ki!
xne wnole animus Of the article in
fact is directed against the Republican

editor was in danger, the high sound

There was no excitement about the

that there is a liberal supply of flre-

Walks of Civil Hie.
1 Savannah Morning Neica.)
Even the North Carolina Volun
teers at Tybee,with all the advan
tages of a first-class seaside resort are
desirous of quitting the military er-
yice, ucuufiK voeir uniiorma and re
turning to the quiet but more lucra
tive walks of civil life.
I There are too companies of volun
teers from the old "Tar Heel State"
down on the island, Company A, of
ayette viile, commanded by Capt
Huske, and Company E,. of Green-
Vine, commanded by Capt Smith.
There are 212 men, exclusive of offi-
1 A . t .
uers, uu out 01 uus number it is
doubtful if over twelve want to do
police duty for the next eighteen
momns at Santiago or Han Juan.
i A namber of the North Carolinian
have been in the city the past two
days. Yesterday several of them
were asked what was the desire of
the privates as talked of anions- them
selves. All said that the chief desire
or the men now is to rtt back home.
into their regular occupations, and
make uo for lost time. CommnT A
it is said, either has gotten up a peti
tion to be mustered out or wia start
one at once. ?
"We have had all the soldiering we
want unless there is an absolute neces
sity for our stavine in the business.'
said one or the men. "We do not want
to become professional sokliera and
follow the business for the bal
ance or our : days. Some of the
officers, I guess, wouldn't object to
doing so, but the privates want to get
back home just as soon as the irovcrn-
ment can dispense with their services.
That is the truth of the situation. The
officers would doubtless feel tliu ume
way if they were privates. But, of
course, they won Idn t acknowledge it.
i cave up a 100 mat paiu me si.ikri a
year and expenses to tro into the armv
and do not regret that I did so. At the
same time, I do not want to be kept in
because some men who perhaps did
not make' as much sacrifice as I did
think they have cot prettv crood iobs
and are patriots enough to want to
stick. You can put it down that we
don t want eighteen months of garri
son work.
