POPULISTjOlENTION.
MET IN RALEIGH ON THURS
DAY LAST.
GUTHRIEiFOR GOVERNOR
w.
H. Worth Re-Nominated for
State Treasurer.
The Populist State Conven
ticn met at Raleigh on Thurs
day last. Senator Marion But
er called the convention to
order, and Congressman Harry
Skinner was made permanent
chairman.
The platform adopted affirms
the St. Louis platform, endorses
or the new election law and
county government system, de-
clares for the establishment of a
reformatory for young criminals,
and an improvement in the pub
ic school system, denounces the
ease of the North Carolina rail
road and the Democratic State
administration, demands the
passage of laws prohibitin
gold contracts of any kind, rec
ommends a non-partisan judici
ary, denounces the removal of
cases by corporations from State
to Federal courts, demands a re
duction in all salaries of officials,
demand a constitutional pro
vision prohibiting the lease of
competing lines of railroads, and
demands the passage of a law
prohibiting railroad companies
from giving and public officials
from receiving free passes.
After the platform was adopt
ed the convention proceeded to
nominate candidates for State
offices which resultt-d as folio vs :
For Governor Win. A. Guth
rie, of Durham.
For Lieut. Governor Oliver
H. Dockery, of Richmond.
For Treasurer W. H.Worth,
of Wake.
For Secretary of State Cy
rus Thompson, of Onslow.
n interesting feature of the
convention was the open fight
made on Senator Butler by Col.
Harry Skinner and Dr. Cyrus
Thompson, but the breach was
healed by the nomination of
Thompson.

uiing 011 a plan to dispel the fog
and turn it into rain. The plan
is to establish stations outside of
London and as the fog rolls in

change it into rain. Several

WANTED TO MARRY HIS
WIFE.
THE PECULIAR DILEMMA OF AN
AGED PENNSYLVANIA COUPLE.
It is not often that a man
wants to marry the wife with
whom he has lived happily for
nearly fifty years. Such a man
is Thos. McKelvey, of Union
ville, Pa. He is So years old,
and, with his wife, went to West
Chester, Pa., a few days ago, and
applied to Clerk of the Court
Blair for a marriage license.
McKelvey and his wife have
be en married nearly halt a cen
tury. Recently their home was
broken into by burglars, and
among the articles stolen was
theiTcirtificate of marriage. The
minister who married them has
long since died, and all the wit
nesses have gone to the great be
yond. McKelvey is a vetran of
the late war, and draws a pen
sion. He fears that he may die
soon, and without the certificate
his widow would be unable to
prove her claims to a pension.
To avoid any trouble he propos
es to take out anotherlicense and
get married to his wife again.
Clerk Blair could . not issue
him a license, but advised the!
old couple, who were greatly
troubled when their plan failed,
to go before a Justice of the
Peace and make affidavits that
hey were man and wife, with
witnesses, and there would be no
trouble such as they leared.
This they did and left for home
happy.

Rev. John E. White is author-
ty for saying that here in North
Carolina free silver is bringing
the members of the churches
ogether, healing differences, and
making men more brotherly aud
neighborly.
In Virginia, according to the
Norfolk Landmark, Capt. Mc
Carthy aud Col. W. C. Elam,
both advocates of free silver, who
had not been on good terms for
years, buried the hatchet at a big
silver meeting which both of
them addressed.
The preachers will do well to
cut this paragraph out and read
it twice when some gold man
appeals to their selfish cupidity
by telling them that free silver
would0 cut down the purchasing
power of their salaries.

A Georgia editor rhymes the
free silver business as follows:
"He said, my love, 'tis sad,
That we cannot agree,
You are for glittering gold,
While I'm for silver free.
Let's kiss now, and make up,
How many must I take?
To let you know I love you,
Aud love you for your sake?
'Oh!' said she, 'we'll not fall out,
But we'll differ, just for fun;
Dear John, stick to your politics,
Take sixteen, love for one.

FRIDAY AND NO. 13-
Nominated on Friday, Occupied

It is a curious fact, too, in this
connection, as illustrating the
extent to which No. 13 entered
into his life in Chicago, that he
left the city for his former home
in Salem, Illinois, on the nth
day of the month.
It may be that Mr Bryan, in
defiance of time honored Sll
stition, looks upon 13 as an

fortune. Either that or there
will be many who will see in
this commingling of No. 13 aud
Friday evidences of Hir
awaiting the ambitious young
Nebraskan.
It is probably the fact, how
ever, that he had more fun for
his money that any of the other
visitors during convention week,
for his bill at the Clifton House
for both himself and Mrs. Bryan
amounted to onlv en-
A few days after his arrival he
J ir-rj.j-
handed Mr. Kohler n mrU nf
bills amounting to $60, with the
request that he place it in the
office safe. This was done, and
on the day of his departure he
walked up to the cashier's win
dow and asked for his bill, at the
same time calling for the $60,
and expressing the hope that it
was sufficient to square his ac
count. He was told by Clerk Kohler
that it was more than enough,
and when he was handed a re
ceipted bill and 16.50 he said,
with much satisfaction: "If there
is any other man who can come
here and get the Presidential
nomination and only pay a hotel
bill of 43.50 I would like to find
him."
The remark was overheard by
several men who were standing
near, and a laugh was raised by
one of them say: "It once cost
me 500 to try to get the nomi
nation for Governor."
Mr. Bryan joined in the laugh,
and turning to the speaker said :
"Perhaps it was cheaper to lose
the $500 than to get the notni
nation."

The People in This.
When work is to be done the
people, the horny handed people,
are given the pick and shovel.
When wars were to be fought,
the people, the horny handed
people, are given the musket and
placed right in front of the can-,
non, but when the country is to
be governed they are informed
that they must take a back seat,
and allow the kid glove gentry
to come to the front. This one
time things are to be reversed,
and the people who do the work
and fight the battles are going
to try their hands on the reins of
the government. They are sure
they cannot do much worse than
the millionaires have done.

discoveries while in the East,
says the Wilmington Star. One
of these was "that the free silver
sentiment is stronger in the East
than most people think." That's

Cleveland.

"A single gold standard would
bring prices still lower aud more

people. We are partially upon

"Contract our currency to $15

would be such as no one could
figure. Talking of free silver,
our mints could not turn out
over $60,000,000 per year less
than $i to every inhabitant.
Would that flood the country?
It would restore prices, confi
dence and resuscitate business.
That, I think, is about what free
silver would do for us. We want
to take care of ourselves first;
European countries are able to
take care of themselves."

ATTEMPT AT MURDER.
DECKHAND PUSHES HIS
CAPTAIN OVERBOARD.
ROBBERY THE OBJECT.
The Captain clings to the
Ikiidcler and Secures
Help.
The Norfolk Daily Pilot gives
the following account of a brutal
attempt at murder at Ocracoke:
About ten davs ago a sensas
tional attempt at murder, with a
view ot robbery, was made on
the life of Captain Davidson, of
the barge "Sarah," at Ocracoke,
N. C.
For a week the Daily Pilot has
been in posession of the facts res
garding the matter, but refrained
from giving publicity to them
until the capture of the would-
be assassin, who was daily ex
pected to show up in Norfolk.
lhe expectation was well
founded, as the man was arrest
ed here Monday afternoon after
a hot chase by Officers Oliver
and Swinson. The facts are as
follows:
About ten days ago the little
barge "Sarah," in command ot
Captain Davidson, lay at Ocra
coke inlet, near Ocracoke, N. C,
on the Atlantic coast.
Captain Davidson and the one
other man on board, James Wil
liams, colored, were washing off
the deck. Captain Davidson
leaned over the side to get up a
bucket of water, when Williams
threw him overboard. The Cap
tain, who is a slightly built, boyish-looking
young man, attempt-
ea to swim to tne rudder chains
and cling to them.
1 hen Williams got a quantity
of coal and threw great chunks
of coal at the struggling man.
who was kept off until his
strength began to fail and drown
ing stared hi m in the face. Then
with a desperate effort Captain
Davidson gained the rudder
chains and held a parley with
Williams. Williams demanded
the captain's money and the lat
ter agreed to give him all the
money that he had on board. He
then gained the deck, and, real
izing that he would probably be
killed as soon as he handed over
his money, he resorted to a sub
terfuge to gain time and secure
ass stance.
He told Williams, who was
not much used to boating, that
the barge was sinking and they
must signal for assistance or both
would go down with the barge.
He hoisted a signal of distress,
which was promptly responded
to by "The Belle of Virginia."
1 he eaptanfand part of the
crew of the latter came on deck
and to them Captain Davidson
quickly narrated the attempted
murder. 1 he men at once seiz
ed Williams, tied him up and
debated what course to pursue
with him. Some were for lynch
ing him, then and there, while
others did not want to kill him.
One offered to tie a rope around
Williams' neck and tow him out
to sea and drown him. but it
was finally decided to beat him
within an inch of his life.
He was tied up and beated un
il, perhaps, death would have
been welcomed. He was keot
ied up ail night and guarded,
but twice undid his fastenings,
and but for extreme vigilance he
would have escaped. When
morning came his captors put
him on the small, uninhabited
island of Portsmouth.
From here he escaped to the
mail boat, and later, by slow de
grees, found his was to Norfolk,
where a warrant was awaiting
him. charging attempted mur
deu. The police have been on
the lookout for him for several
days and now have him safe be
hind the bars. He will be held
for the North Carolina authori
ties and will probably receive a
sentence of a long term of years.
The object of the would-be
murderer was to secure what
money Captain Davidson had on
board, which wras only a small
sum. But for his presence of
mind in emergency, the genial
captain, who has several hundred
warm friends in Norfolk, would
no doubt have been murdered
in cold blood and his body cast
into the sea.

It is possible that the Popu

evidently believe in the advice :
"Go West Young Man !"
Judge Samuel A. Kingman, of
Topeka, Kans., ex Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court, annouu
ces that he can not support Mc
Kinleyior President, and will
vote for Bryan aud Sewall.
Kingman has always been a
Republican. He joined the Re
publican Silver League this
week.
"The worst enemy of the
country is the man who seeks
unjust legislation or defends un
just legislation after it has been
obtained. He is the best friend
of the government who in the
first place seeks to prevent un
just legislation, and, if unjust
legislation has been enacted,
seeks to erase it from the statute
book, Bryan in Pittsburg.
A Democratic club was formeci
111 Armstrong county, Va., the
purpose of which is not to "carry

can neighbors." Campaign
clubs with such a purpose will
be of everlasting good to them
selves and their friends of other

Johu Sherman aud Tom Reed
and all other gold advocates ad
mit that free coinage would help
the farmer. How it would help
the mechanics is thus answered
by Arthur A. Parks:
"If the farmer has more mon
ey he will spend more money
tor all that money can buy
manufactured articles, clothing,
carriages, pianos, &c., his sons
will be sent to city schools and
colleges; they will spend money
lor clothes, boots, hats, bicycles,
&c; his daughters will be sent
to seminaries, and they like-wise
will spend money for things that
have to be made with the hands
of labor. They will spend dol
lars for these articles where they
now spend cents, and the work
of providing these goods will
make employment. This, to
my mind, is how the masses will
be benefitted through the free
coinage of silver."
Government Suppresses a But

concern which has been making
campaign buttons of brass mod

this is against the currency laws.

The buttons are now made after

quarter eagle.
