Cotton is Selling to-day for 7. C5 to 7 75 per hundred. There have teen twenty thrco hundred bale sold bere this season up to date. There is now about seven hundred balc3 cn the yard.

The religious, organ and" the preacher who cant find anything else to write about and preach about but baptism and sanctifieation had better run patent medicine advertisements .and tell ghost stories something ti f interest the children. But best of all pray for a baptism of tho Holy Ghost. We would suggest to our city fathers that they have the streets cleaned, especially in- the -business part of the town. 'Some of our citi zen will will haul the trash off for littering if they will have it raked up.' It would add much to the appearance mr town if the streets were swept occassUnaly. Mr. Cuaeles I.

Hill,- pastor of Prospect church, would address the free silver club at Turlington school house cn last Friday night. Elder Hill called in to boo us Mon day and said that tho annuncement was made' without his consent. That while ho was a democrat of the "first water" he took no active part in politics and as a minister of tho gospel ho could not address political gath erings. Eider Hill is a resident of Aaron, Wayne eauuty, and prefers to battle against the hosts of satan, and work for the up-building of Christ's Kingdom than . to bo dabbling in political speech making which some of the preachers of the land aro doing. Sinco writing the abovo we notice that Elder Hill was nominated for the House of Representatives last Satur day by the Democratic convention of. Ifayne county. From U. G.

The republicans, and populists neld their conventions Monday (an ao count of which eppears in another column) and put cut a ticket 'together. In olher words they formed a co-operation or fusioji to heat tho democrats. The principles. of the two parties on the affairs of tho nation as laid down in their platforms is as different as nght Is from day, yet under this co operation or fusion to beat the demo crats the populists agree to vote for a' republican who would voto for United States Senator who will Vote for tbe republican idea of finance which 13 tho gold standard.

Tfic Popy and Huds ffhig e. , Tho much talked of fusion conven tion met at Lillington on Monday : last, and did tho work; in form, which, had already been done by the leaders in fact. To all appearances great harmony between "the 'reformers" and tho republicans prevailed. The demands of the negroes were eought to bo met by the nomination of L. B. Chspin, who i3 probably tho most ex treme republican in tho county, for the' legislature. Ia bis speech to tho negroes he said that ho belonged to a family neither ono of whom, had ever voted anything but a republican tick- j et, acd that he would vote the samo in this election from VcKinley to to ivnship constable. The balance of ths ticket was then made up of pops and rads according to rule. Amcng tho nominees is ex- shoriff J. A. Green who is their can didate' for county commissioner. . The democratic party has done a great deal for Sheriff Green", having kept him in office for years', but thirst for oQce will often swallow up gratw tude, patriotism and everything else. "Cromwoll, I charge theo to fl ng away ambition, for by it angels fell - and by it you will find your grave." The ticket is as follows : For sheriff, J. H. Pope, pop. For Register of Deed3, J. McKay Bryd. Pop. f . '. For Tresurerr Goo. bpenco, pop. For Coroner: !j. J. Wilson, Rep. For Lgislature:L. B. Caapin, Rep. For Commissiojers: J. A.
