GLENN'S FINE SPEECH.
Heard by Enthusiastic Assem
blage of Voters in Court
House Last Night.
AN APPEAL TO DEMOCRATS.
State sod Nitional Issues DiscBSsed la
an Able, Fearless and oavlociof
Manner-Eloquence and Pathos;
Wit and Wisdom Notes
While the audience which heard
Hon. R. B. Glenn in the Court House
last night was not the largest, to one
who saw the moments when the crowd
lingered upon his words, when his
hearers were spellbound with his logic
and the next moment Tperhapa con
vulsed with laughter at one of hi3
roaring campaign jokes, pointedly
illustrating a fact to one who saw
and re It all these things, there can be
no doubt of the success or enthusiasm
of the meeting. Mr. Glenn spoke fr
a little more than two hours and he
had the undivided attention of those
under the sound of his voice.
County Chairman Geo. L. Peschau
called the meeting to order and
good humoredly stated . that to his
"eccentric" friend George Rountree
had bsen delegated the honor of pre
senting the speaker of the evening.
Mr. Rountree said he was fully per
suaded that there is no community on
earth so hard to arouse as this one,
but he said he was equally as per
suaded that, once in action, they
are absolutely irresistible as was
shown in the campaigns of "98 and 1900.
Hence he said it was, that the people on
the great watch tower of Democracy
were putting forth extreme efforts to
get them aroused by sending' some of
the very best expounders of Democratic
doctrine to these parts. When the
State had been in danger, Mr. Roan
tree said, the strident but persuasive
voice of the hardy Bob Glenn had al
ways been heard above the din. Mr.
Rountree then recited the circim
stances of the patriotic withdrawal of
Mr. Glenn from the Senatorial race and
presented him as the "best campaigner
in the 8tate of North Carolina."
Mr. Glenn thanked Mr. Rountree for
what he had said, but ended that
it was undeserved. He also spoke of
his aspiration to and withdrawal from
the race for the United States Senate
and paid an eloquent tribute to his
fellow townsman, Hon. O. B. Watson,
in whose favor he retired, tie
said he rose above self on that
occasion and came to the people of
Wilmington as an humble citizen,
speaking in behalf of themselves, their
families and commonwealth. He was
not a "Democrat for revenue only"
and expected to live and be buried a
Democrat, because he knew of no bet
ter way of serving his country and his
God than by helping to keep in power
the Anglo-Saxons of North Carolina.
The first hour of Mr. Glenn's speech
was devoted to State issues and that
part of it was eloquent, inspiring and
straight from the heart. He said there
was but one issue in North Carolina
this campaign. It was Jeter O. Pritch-
ard. Pritchard is the Republican
party in North Carolina and the Re
publican party is Pritchard. Every
county officer that is put up first has
to have his nomination go before the
"boar," then it is ratified in conven
tion. He made and nnmade candi
dates as he saw fit "It is the game of
Simoa says wiggle-waggle," he said,
"only it is Jeter says wiggle-waggle
and down come Cooke and Furches;
wiggle-waggle again and up goes
Hill; wiggle-waggle once more and up
goes Lindsay raierson ana aown
comes Petree. In Western North
Carolina in Republican ranks it is
now 'Marse Jeter' and not Pritchard
or Senator Pritchard. Thank God, I
belong to no such party, but to one
whose nominations are made by the
people in convention assembled."
Pritchard had drawn for an issue in
North Carolina a comparison of ad
ministration of affairs and the speaker
accepted it. He said he would em
panel those before him as a jury and
begged them to hear the testimony.
"Hear it, Anglo-Saxons," said Mr.
Glenn, "and when you make up your
verdict I'll not be hiding around this
Court House, fearing the result of it"
He said he would not go back before
the war but he pathetically told the
story of the laying down of Confederate
arms at Appomattox and then graphi
cally pictured the days of reconstruc
tion and the attitude of the Republican
party to a devasted State. White men
disfranchised and negroes enfranchis
ed. There was no law and order and
misrule ran riot, culminating in the
saturnalia when drunken Fusion leg
islators clasping hands and in their
revels danced about legislative halls
singing "Sally's in the garden sifting
sand."
Then he pictured the return of the
Democracy to power under the la
mented Vance; told how the State the
first year spent $174,000 for education;
the next year $256,000 for the same
purpose, while the tax rate was re
duced f rem 86 to 37 cents and on down
to 21 cents, and now we are spending
$1,200,000 for schools. The Democrats
built hundreds of miles of railway;
erected schools and asylums for the in
sane; provided pensions for Confeder
ates, etc., until we then and now have
the strongest, the best State south of
the Mason and Dixon line and it was
made so by the Democratic party,
The speaker next traced the history
of the formation of the Populist party
and the drifting of the Ship of State
Into the hands of the f aslonists. 'The
white flag, I say it with ahame, toter
ed and fell and hoisted aloft was the
black insignia," dramatically exclaim
ed Mr. Glenn.
WILMINGTON, N. 0M THURSDAY, OCTOBER 16,
Further contrasting the State kdj
ministrations it was shown that under
the Democrats never had there been a
single blot upon the men who held
omce, while under the rusionuts we
had the Hancock scandal, the Dr.
Babb scandal, the Kirby Smith scan
da), the Jim Young scandal, the Wm.
H. Martin theft, negro magis
trates innumerable, negro solici
tors, negro congressmen, etc. etc
ad nauseam. With applause he then
compared Aycock to Vance in the
former's leadership of the fight to re
Ldeem the State and declared that re
demption is now forever.
Coming to the Constitutional
Amendment he said it. was the great
est pride of his life that he had taken
part in its preparation. In speaking
of the words of the Republicans who
asked if Democratic speakers were not
going to stop talking about the "nig
ger." he said, "yes, when Republicans
say plainly that they accept the
amendment as constitutional." He
declared amidst great applause that he
would never be satisfied till the dam
nable 14 and 15th amendments, made
to humiliate the South, was wiped off
the National statutes. He said he was
told he must not discuss the "nigger."
"Not very much but a little," said Mr.
Glenn; "on my own personal ac
count." He then told of instances of
social equality he had seen the past
Summer in the North. White men
were walking with negro women and
vice versa. He -saw them eating in
the same restaurants; saw them bath
ing together; playing baseball together
and white and negro children side by
side in the schools. He wound up
with great applause by referring
to the Booker Washington dinner at
the White House. He eulogized the
Anglo-Saxon race and said he thanked
God he was an Anglo Saxon and a
Democrat because that party was
pledged to keep the race in power.
He next entered into a brilliant de
fence of the State expenditures and
scored Pritchard for his wanton In
consistencies and false claims. His
deserters' pension bill was violently at
tacked and his other public record fully
aired, notably his vote on the ship
subsidy bill, the West Point appro
priation, etc.
The last half of Mr. Glenn's speech
was devoted to an able discussion of
the tariff and the trusts, with a final
and earnest appeal to Democrats to re
main steadfast, not divide, and by all
means to register. He said that he
had been coming to the East for twelve
years and he came this time to tell the
people here that the West needed them
and needed them badly. In speaking
of the tariff he showed its inequality
as applied by the Kepubiican party
and hooted at some of the infant in
dustries that wanted protection. Some
of the babies, said Mr. Glenn, have
grown so large that when you spank
one of them, you can hear him holler
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Referring to the sale of American
manufactured goods across the ocean
cheaper than they are sold to home
consumers, he said it was "a shame,
a dirty measley shame," according to
the popular song. In discussing the
tariff he disclaimed hostility of the
Democrats to corporations or organ
ized labor but said they must not be
prohibitory to other legitimate enter
prises. The prosperity issue of the Republi
cans was hooted at, so far as they were
responsible for it, and the coal strike
was thrown up to the administration
as well as the thirty million dollars
turned loose illegally in Wall street
the other day to save the Republicans a
panic on their hands. Prosperity,
declared the speaker, has come, If at
all, at the hands of Providence and in
spite of Republican legislation.
Mr. Glenn's closing, appeal was
earnest and eloquent. He was warmly
congratulatd after the speaking by
many who crowded about him to shake
hir had. Mr. Glenn goes to Fayette
ville to-day; then to Red Springs
and Lumberton.
DAY'S NEWS ON THE WHARF.
Cotton Declining and Receipts Falliinz Off.
Steamer Richmond Slightly Afronnd.

ENING
ODDS AND ENDS DAY.
Superior Court Yesterday Trans
acted Very Little Business
of General Interest.
THE HULLEN-CITY VERDICT.
May Be a New Trial and Perhaps a Set
ting Aside of the Verdict-Municipal
Tangle Over "Black Maria."
Other Roatine Proceedings.
Yesterday was odds and ends day
in the Superior Court and very litttle
of public interest was transacted.
In the morning there was a motion
by plaintiff for a new trial in the case
of Meta H. Hulien against the City of
Wilmington but Judge Bryan said he
would take the matter under consid
eration. It is also learned that the at
torneys for the city will make amotion
to set aside the verdict upon the
ground of the jury's having found
contributory negligence on the part of
the plaintiff and ia the nexi, issue hav
iug given her judgment against ' the
city. However, nothing was done ia
the court yesterday.
The morning session was principally
taken up with a trial of the case of the
8. P. Cowan Livery Co. vs. City of
Wilmington, in which the plaintiff
seeks to compel payment for the police
patrol wagon purchased by the Board
of Aldermen a little over a year ago.
The Board of Audit and Finance
refused to approve the bill for pay
ment on the ground that the
purchase by the Aldermen was irregu
lar. The suit brings on a clash as to
the authority of the two co-ordinate
boards of the city government and is
therefore being watched with interest.
The Board of Aldermen and the Board
of Audit and Finance are represented
in the court by City Attorney Bellamy
and the latter board has employed ex
J udge E. K. Bryan as special counsel
to resist payment. Messrs. Bellamy
& Bellamy appear for the plaintiff.
After all the evidence was in yester
day morning Judge Bryan intimated
that the plaintiff could not recover,
whereupon plaintiff's attorneys suffer
ed a non-suit and appealed to the Su
preme Court. Notice of appeal was
waived; the bond fixed at $25 and the
plaintiff was given until December 1st
to file statement of case on appeal,
and defendant 40 days thereafter to
file counter statement, but later the
entry as to appeal was stricken out on
the Clerk's record and some agreement
between the attorneys will likely be
reached later. In the meantime it
looks like a victory for the Board of
Audit and Finance.
The jury before which the case was
heard yesterday was composed of T.
B. Kingsbury, E. P. Owens, Geo. W.
Rogers, Jno. H. 8trauss, T. W. Wood,
H. M. Mason, Matt J. Heyer, A. B.
Brower, B. M. Leheu, W. D. McGrew,
M. Marshburn and J. S. King.
The damage suit of J. W. Holmes
against Drs. W. J. and L. H. Love
was not taken up for trial yeaterday
as was expected but was continued for
plaintiff until next term. Unimpor
tant cases were disposed of during the
morning as follows:
Joseph H. Walters vs. M. W.
Hedgepeth and W. A. Hedgepeth;
judgment for principal and interest
amounting to $570.21.
P. Gumming vs. W. J. Reaves et. al.,
confirmation of sale.
Henry Whitted et. al., vs. C. H.
Thomas et. al., judgment for plain
tiff. Following divorces were granted:
Andrew Brown vs. Dinah Brown;
Rachael R. Lamb vs. Perry Lamb;
Andrew Williams vs. Tenah Wil
liams. The following talesmen were order
ed summoned for to-day: Thos. J.
Torpy, A. H. Paddison, C. H.
Schulken, Jno. H. McDongal, H. Ger-
dis and W, F. Davis.
SAILOR'S BODY NOT FOUND.
Unfortunate White Man Who Fell Over
board at Compress Tuesday Night.
The body of George Barham, ship's
carpenter on the steamer Acacia, who
fell overboard and was drowned at the
wharves of the Champion Compress
Tuesday night, was not found yester
day, but to-day the steamer will b3
moved and Larry Lowe, the colored
expert, with grappling hooks, will
make another . trial. His efforts yes
terday-were fruitless.
The unfortunate man had been
ashore Tuesday night and returned to
the ship intoxicated. While climbing
the ladder over the side of the steamer
he made a misstep and fell headlong,
striking his head on the wharf and
tumbling Into the river. Captain
Burris, the night watchman, and a
policeman who had brought the sailor
to the dock, heard the fall and ran up
just in time to see him go under. They
say he must have been stunned by the
fall, as he uttered no sound or came up
a single time.
SOLID WEEK OF REPERTOIRE.
Qrabame-Qoodwla Company Opens En
gagement Here Monday Night.
Regarding the opening performance
of the Grahame-Goodwin Comedy
Co., which will be at the Academy
here all nex( week, the Charlotte Ob
server of Tuesday has this to say:
"A large audience witnessed the
8 reservation of "A Pair of Black
lyes" by the Grahame-Goodwin
Company at the Opera House last
night; and the play provoked continu
ous applause. The company is a popular-priced
organisation, and has a
hard-working, capable cast. The
specialties were "much applauded; and
"Baby Edna," who starred between
acts, is the winsomest and most tal
ented little maiden that has appeared
on a local stage in a long time."

SOME FINE BAREBACK RIDINQ.
No Less Than Twenty-three Professionals
With Forepangh & Sells Brothers.
No less than the twenty-three bare
back champions of the entire world
are. with the Adam Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers' consolidated shows this
year. As a matter of fact there are no
other riders worthy of the name in
this country. These shows are in a
measure playing the dog-ln-the-man-
ger policy toward the other shows in
regard to riders. Unethird of the num
ber they have would be more than any
other show has ever had before, but
they simply will not let the other
shows have any one of these champion
riders, it certainly makes these shows
the most astounding exhibition of
equestrianism the world has ever seen
without indulging in any of the ordi
nary circus exaggeration. They will
all be seen with the shows exhibited
here on next Monday, Oct 20 tb.
