CAMPAIGN MEETING.
Brooke Q. Empie, Esq.; Spoke to
Many Democrats Last Night
in the Court House.
ELECTOR D0WD WAS ABSENT
He Telerrsphed That Aaother Engage
meat Prevented His Coming, Bat
Promised a Date titer Jus
tice BornemsDB Spoke.
The largest campaign meeting of the
year was held last night at the Court
House, the occasion advertised being
the speaking by Hon. W. O. Dowd, of
Charlotte, who, however,' telegraphed
in the afternoon from his home that
another engagement made it impos
sible for him to meet his appointment
here. He intimated that be would;
speak in Wilmington later.
As much as the absence of Mr.
Dowd waa regretted, the crowd which
had assembled to hear the issues of .
the campaign discussed in an able and
convincing manner . were not-disap-:
pointed. County Chairman E. F..
Johnson called the meeting to order;
and after reading the telegram from
Mr. Dowd, presented Brooke G. Empie,
Esq., one of the most entertaining-
speakers of the Wilmington bar, who
in an address of more than an hour
throughly pleased and instructed
his hearers with an exposition
of the questions at stake in the present
campaign. Mr. Empie was accorded
warmest applause and his discussion
was calm, convincing, dispassionate
and withal, especially appealing to the
masses of people who are arrayed
against the champions of trusts and
monopolies in the great fight which is
now on.
His first references were to the evils
of imperialism and the tendency to
ward militarism. He showed himself
complete master of the subject in hand
and a careful reader and thorough
student of current events. Operations
of our armies in Cuba and the Philip
pines were reviewed and the tendency
of the situation shown ' to be towards
an empire and a tottering government.
The greater portion of his discussion
was concerning trusts and monopolies,
describing from personal experiences
their manner of throttling competition
and manipulating affairs to the detri
ment of the people and to their own
despicable ends. This. feature of his
address was especially instructive and
entertaining. He declared the only
remedy for the -condition was the de
thronement of a government which is
an avowed .friend to the combinations
and whose logical president, Mark
Hanns, is himself opposed to every
interest of the laboring classes.
He closed his argument with.-.
second reference to imprerialiam and
appealed to the people to thwart the
endeavor of Republicans to fasten
upon the country a monarchy.
When Mr. Empie? had closed his
speech there were calls for Justice G.
W. Bbrnemann, who responded and
made a convincing appeal to the people
to deliver their country from a party
which would have for its emperor
William McKinley and for its ruler a
Mark Hanna. Justice Bornemann also
made remarks from his personal ob
servations in his native country, Ger
many, and pictured the -evils arising
from a large standing army and a
covetous desire for conquest. He waa
given closest attention and upon the
close of his speech a. round of applause
and congratulations upon his effort.
He promised the audience to speak in
several of the wards before the cam
paign is over.

A TWO-STATE LEAGUE.
Base Ban ' Magnates Already Talking of
x Next Season's ProspectSrVlrglaia-
-North Carolina Combinstion.
Thursday's Daily Press, of Newport
News, Va , says: ; '
t Instead of a purely Virginia League,
it "is said that steps are being taken
now to organize for the season of 1901
a base ball league of eight or ten
cities in Virginia and North Carolina:
i Notwithstanding the reports circu
lating already, about the bright out-'
jook for the Virginia League next
year the prospects for a purely Vir
ginia League are not so- encouraging,
and it is said thai the managers of the
more successful .teams of last season,
.'would' preferjo see a Virginia-North
.'Carolina organization, including five
Virginia cities and five cities in the
'Ol4 North State. - ; ; -
7 It, can be - stated almost positively:
that next season, the league magnates
Trill not aim, to pick all of the cities in
one ; section'-with ai view of ; keeping
down travelling expenses; There is
not enough rivalry in the game when
this plan is adopted.
' It is reported that in the event a two
State league is organized that the five
Virginia clubs will be as follows:
Richmond, Newport News, Hampton,
Norfolk, Lynchburg and Roanoke.
The oities of Raleigh Wilmington,
Tarboro, Durham and several others
are said to bo anxious to have clubs in
a league of this kind. -
It is probable that the league mag
nates will get together in a few weeks
to discuss plans for the season of 1901
and then it will be .known just bow
base ball will fare in Virginia.
