Reid, registrar of Halifax township, was arrested Monday. Two United States supervisors, a Republican negro and a Third party itc called on Real and de manded his registration hooks in order that they might insjiect them and make copies. Kciu rciuscn 10 anow uie oooks to lie insetted. Thereupon the super visors telegraphed to A. W. Shaffer, chief sujwrvisor at Raleigh, and the latter or dered that Reid !c arrested and brought before hira and not before any other commissioner. Reid was brought here, Shaffer claiming that only he had juris diction. Jle required Rcidtogivc $1,000 bond for his appearance. The arrest of Reid has caused intense indignation among the Democrats mid is declared to be worth 500 votes to their party in Halifax county alone. In answer to an enquiry made by reg istrars concerning the power ol super visors Attorney-General Davidson has filed the opinion "That supervisors in county and parish election districts have not the right as such supervisors to challenge voters or to take a list ol reg istercd electors or to scrutinize ballots or returns. In fact they have no duties to perioral with respect to registration, but simply to be in the immediate pres ence of the officers holding the election and witness all their proceedings includ ing the counting of the votcsand making the returns thereof. They have author ity to make arrests, and these functions pertain to election of congressmen." ONCI-: a ki:pi III.ICAN. PLUM PUDDING.

The evi dence accumulates that cither 1'ritchard or myself, one, is very badly looled as to what Madison county will do iu On coming election, Today 'sc.tcricnce has strengthened my opinion that 1'ritchard cannot get over 600 majority, with the chances greatly in favor of it being less than that. One hundred and eighty mounted men met us at the forks of Ivy this morning, and, if possible they were more enthusi astic than those ol other sections of the district. 1'ritchard had arrived 011 the ground before us, and I did not have a chance to count his crow d. His friends urn it numbered 1155, while another authority put it at 1 K. The crowd was the largest we have ul iu the district, outside of county towns, with the possible exception of igeon river. It was a fine day lor the Democracy. They were greatly enthused by Crawford's speech, and came out asily on top as to the crowd. The Third party about Mars Hill has bout dissolved, and it was so apparent today that Brown is simply I'ritchard's Assistant that there is little doubt that II the Democrats will be back in line by election day. Instead ol 1'ritchard getting Demo cratic votes, he can get bets in abun- nnce down here that he will not get all the Republican votes by a jug full in Madison county. Thetalkof Democrats swapping Craw- rd off in Madison seems to have no nidation so far as I can nslertain. I had a talk with Tom Munay.thc Demo ratic candidate lor Shentl today, and lie ild me that he would withdraw from the mvass before he would allow any of Ins li lends to swap L raw lord oil lor a otc lor mm. I he Democrats arc watch ful, aud it will do no county candidate niv good to have it found out that he will even to'erate swapping Crawford or my portion ol the Democratic ticket. J. I".
