C -Iu there days of conventions while the Ncmocrats and Republicans are kicking up a big racket and having lot of fun, and we i'opulist" are going along in the even tenor of our way, just let's boot off a gun on the picket line to let them know that there is fun for them ahead. While I have hoped with a silent with that the national lenders of all the silver parties might succeed in the amalgamation of all the silver forces under one banner, if needs be under a new name, it seem that the day has about past. It remains for the Populists to nominate their own candidates on their own platform. While the name of one of our citi zens has been often mentioned in i'opulist, Democratic and Republi can papers for the high and honored position of Governor, I do not re member to have seen any article from any one in our city or county upon the subject. I rise to place at the head of our ticket, the winner of the race, Major Wm. A. Guthrie, of the City of Dur ham. He is a man in every lespect well qualified to fill this high position to the credit of himself and honor to the State. We know him in his daily walk as a true and noble man, one beloved by our people, a man in touch and sympathy with the people, a man with a big and brave heart, a good campaigner, personally popular, with broad views, and ideas abreast with the demands of tho people, (live un Major Outhrie as our stand ard bearer and we will win the fight. Let the Populists of North Carolina think about this from now until our convention and come together with oue thought that this is the ticket to win. John 11. IIutchinos.

The people of Bladen can't be fooled any longer. The Peoples Party is sure to win eveu if there aro three tickets in the hald. Leading Democrats say they will vote with us if we will stay "in tho middle of the road." I think we will make as much by not fusing as we would have made by fusing. The leading Democrats have to own that Senator Butler's course in the Senate cannot be reproached; that his acts have been right in every instance. It is hard for them to have to come under, but we are glad to see them own the truth even at the last hour. Bladen is for silver and will be victorious in November. I).

I have been voting the Democratic ticket ever since the late war until four years ago. Then I got my eyes opened by seeing some of their ballt t box stuffing, domineering over the poor and many other mean tricks that wonld make any honest man blush. I have been voting for the Pops ever since. I have been tak ing The Caucasian nearly two years; have given them out to my neigh bors to read and it has put some of them to thinkiner. Many of them were old Dems, but they will sup port the Peoples Party from now on. I have gotten old; can't work anj' more ana money is so scare I can't take any paper now. I don't see auy chancd tor times to get any better until we get a silver Presi dent. I am almost sure we will do this this lall, for the Dems have done so badly I can't see any chance tor them, ihey are too badly di vided on the silver question. TAKE WARNING ALL YE POPrf. Now I say to you good men one and all, Keep your eyes open along this lall ; Bather than have their party sever, They will act the rascal worse than ever.

Uutside ot frequent allusions to John Sherman, however, he had very little to say ot the Republican party. He also urged men to desert their party and join forces for silver, and not only denounced the National Democratic party as opposed to silver, but pre dicted that if the Demociaic Na tional convention declared for free silver at Chicago, they would prove talse to their pledge, lie even de clared that the gold men controlled tho Democratic State convention at Raleigh.

' Psa. 52:3. "Because ye have said, we have made a covenant with death and with hell we are at agreement; when th overflowing scourge , shall pass through, it shall not corue to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood nave we hid ourselves." Isa. 28:15. Every man, whether be be a gentle man or an infernal scoundrel, who is capable of intelligent comprehension, knows that nothing of a detrimental character can be truthfully said j against the Peoples Party or the mas ses of people who compose it. Its re cord has been honest and consistent. and its enemies, not being able to bring truthful charges of a damaging character against it, resort to malig rant, partisan abuse and desperate and unblushing lying. mm There are some vivid cases in point. In Alabama and Texas vigorous cam paigns are now Deing wageu. ina Peoples Party is threatening the de molition of the disgraceful, discredited and damnable Democratic party in those States. The Dems are resorting to desperate schemes to prevent their annihilation. But in those States, as well as elsewhere, nothing truthful can be brought against the Populists, and the Democrats in their panicky despair are resorting to the use of the lies invented and circulated by the Democratic party press of North Caro lina in 1895 such wild, baseless and malevolent lies as the Almighty never allowed man to invent, and live, since the days of Annanias. Where lying is not done, a distortion of facts is at tempted. How We Know This. We know this because we have re ceived the following letters : ONE FROM ALABAMA. Athens, Ala., June 20, 189G.

It is thus clear that both House and Senate adjourned in honor of (ieneral Itobert E. Lee. WASHINGTON. On page 489, Douse Journal, pro ceedings of February 22d, is the follow ing: By Mr. Lusk. II. II.. 10S5. a resolution in commemoration of the birthdav of Jeo. Washington, founder of the .Republic." The resolution read as follows : "Resolved, That when this House ad journs to-day, it adjourn in respect to the birthday ot theioundor ot the Republic." On pages 493 and 401 of the House Journal, proceedings of February 22d, is the following : "The following bills and resolutions were taken up and disposed or as tollows: H- It- lueo, a resolution in commemora ation of the birthday of George ashing- ton, the founder of the American Repub lic." 'The resolution offered by Mr. Lusk is adopted." The action of the Senate was as fol lows : On page 290, Senate Journal, pro ceedings of February 22d, under head of Introduotion of Hills and Resolu tions is the following : "By Mr. Starbuck, S. R. Gil, a resolution of respect to the memory of George Wash ington, and providing for adjournment at 1 o clock." On page 290, same day, occurs this "S. R, 641, on its second reading. The res olution was adopted." These facts make it absolutely clear that both House and Senate adjourned in honor of Washington. THB DOUGLASS INCIDENT. On February 21st, Representative Crews, colored, introduced the follow ing resolution : " hereas, Ihe late tred Douglass de parted this life on the 20th instnut; and. Whereas, we greatly aepiore me same: now therefore. Resolyed, That this House adjourn at 12 m.. in respect to tne deceased. 'Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be spread upon the Journal of the House." In reporting the introduction of this resolution into the House, the Demo cratic newspaper which afterwards invented and led the lying report that adjournment had been relused in bon or of Juee and Washington, earn : Before putting the vote the resolution was changed so as to provide that the House would not adjourn at 12 o clock, but when it did adjourn, it do so in in reepect to the memory of the late t red Douglass. 1 ne mo tion was put and carried ayes 32, noes 2!t." No quorum voted and therefore the resolution did not pass. The matter never came before the Senate at all, and therefore there was no adjourn ment by the "Legislature" in honor of A WINNING CANDIDATE. Sir. A. A.
