There was a large representative hody of farmers and voters present more than was expected for Monday and in so busy a reason. They' were there for business and not for pie aud beef, and their way wa not paid either. Th Populist and IlepubUcans held their county conventions. They held them separately. The result was a good strong ticket as follows: For Representative, J. M. Iloyle; Register of Deeds, W. C. Mullen; Coroner, S. Baxter JU-al; Sheriff, J. K. Hoover; Treasurer, J. L. Yount; County Commissioners, II. O. Proc tor, Melvin Hovis, J. L. Shrum, Andrew Sain and P. A. Keep. The above ticket is eomiosed of KixkI representative gentlemen and unless the jieople are preventeti voting their honest sentiments, they will le elected. After the convention, Dr. Thomp son, People's Party candidate for Governor, addressed a court house full of voters, there being but few Iniys and only one woman, and they all listened with great attention. The Doctor made a fine sinjech, and dealt out tome unswerable logic and facto, and his sieeeh did great good JI F C.

Editor: Mr. Bar.iea, our coun ty chairman, together with two other members of our County Executive yomtnittee and mynelf went before the Oouuty Board of ElecMons of Edge combe county and presented a list of names, (all white men) with the request to have tbem appointed to represent the Populist at the August election. Mr. W. n. Powell Jr., a member of the Board, aked us if we had any "fu sion ticket" with the Republicans. An swer, no. If we had any mderstand ing with the Republicans, that tbe ere not to r'ent a petition. An swer no. Mr. W Powell Jr asked wh .t as the strength of the Populist part in the county ? Mr F. Powell, ed.tor of the Tarboro Southerner, said tbr Congressional vote should be the one to go by, and a-ked me what was the vote. I tnlil him I thought it was 89. He said 87 was the vote. Mr. W H. Powell Jr. aked me if I had a petition sent out by lt ler to be used in ac-king for poll holders, one thac bad some thing about Wiu. Goebel ? I answered ves, and handed him one in blank form, (the same as published in last weeks CauHisiaii), he read the same be fore the Boa d and remarked, that was not what he wanted I replied, that that was the only kind I had received. At. lonneI. Gilliam, chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee then said that as there were probably about ine hundred Populists in th county, and mos' of th-m seeking office, auo as the Republicans numoered about three thousand, and as they were mort vitally interested in the amendment which wai to be vofld on in the Au gust election, than the Populist, h thought the Republicans ought to have representation, and not the Populists. The Board said they would take our petition under consideration. Mr. Barnes and I left, and had gone about twenty steps from the door, when w turned back and went in again, as we entered Mr. W. II Powell, Jr. wa reading a lit of namee, Presented bj Mr. Gilliam, repeated in the Dail Southerner (a clipping of which I en close.) Alter the names were read, a motion was mde to appoint the same. I saw io petition handed out by any Republican, nor was there any Repub lican present during the meeting. J. L. Tarboro, N. C, .Inly, 3 1000. CHAINED TO A NEGRO. Whit PrlHooer HaudeufiVd With a Negro and Led a egio Overeeer Through m nrre tain the 1 uiocratlc City uf I harlott. The Charlotte News of Friday, June 29, reports that on that day Charles Crowder, a white man from Mooresville, was chained to a negro and driven by a negro overseer through the streets of Charlotte. The News says: "A white prisoner chained to a ne gro. "It was this sight that made the blood of Charlotte white men boil this morning. "On East Trade street a negro "trusty" was driving a chain gang wagon and in this wagon in his charge were two prisoners, a white man and a negro, chained together. "Probably fifty people saw them as the wagon moved down Trade street. White men were indignant at the sight and asked hotly who was responsible for the outrage. Mr. John P. Morris saw it and resolved at once to get the white man's re lease. He asked the prisoner what he was sent to the chain gang for, and when told the amount of the fine proceeded to raise it in short or der. "The white man said his name was Charles Crowder, and he was from Mooresville. "I was arrested for a plain drunk," he said. "I didn't harm anybody but myself, I might have somehow raised the amount ol the present fine $2.50, but the police added to the bill the balance due on an old fine for drunkenness that I owed last February, and made the amount $5.10, so I had to serve time on the road." "Robert Phifer, a negro, was in charge of the two prisoners. He is what is known as a "trusty," i. e., a convict, who by good conduct has won the confidence of the boss of the camp, and who is allowed a large measure of liberty. He said he was sent in by Mr. Stancill for the convicts, he found a white man and a negro to carry out, and chained them together as a mat ter of course. Deputy Sheriff John son refused to handcuff them togeth er, he said, and so he (the trusty) chained them himself." This is a sample of Democratic "wnue supremacy." cnariotte is a Democratic city under the control of Democratic officials. Democrats alone are responsible for this outrage OR CROWELL IS ACAINST IT WHAT LOUISIANA DEMOCRATIC SENATORS SAY. SENA'OR M'NI RY'S OPINION. Washington, D. C, March 17, 1898. To the Times-Democrat.

C, March 17, 1898. To the Times-Democrat. Section T of the amended suffrage amendment Is unconstitutional, In my opinion, because it establishes a privileged class of voters for three generations without qualifications, while it Imposes qualifications on all other citizens, and because, in fact, it discriminates against the colored people of Ijouisiana.

Ladies In Politics Not Enough Leran to Pave the Lump. In Franklin county, on June 30th F, H. Spruil, of Louisburg, made a very nice speech on the constitution al amendment, in which he made an earnest appeal to the ladies, mar ried and single, to use their influence to carry the amendment and help them out this time. He insisted that they go to work and use every means to change votes. Since then we see a great deal from the ladies. But when the ladies do their work thre will be many who will not vi olate their oath by voting for the amendment. It seems the Demo crats have turned (?) Western Pop ulists since they have put their la dies in politics. They used to abuse and even rotten egg Weaver when he would encourage ladies to use their influence in politics. If the ladies are dragged into Democratic politics and endorse red shirtism and rotten egg throwing, I fear there will not be enough religious leaven left to purify and save the rotton lump. H. P. D.

What could more emplaUcally j prove its hypocrisy than the course taken by it during the last two we-cks t Iu the face of its frantic and pan icky ''white supremacy" squall, It de liberately pursues a course that cub jcts the greatest heritage and the jighest right of white citizens to th judgment aud domination of the very race which it declares there i o much to fear from, and from which it professes to recoil with iz donation aud horror. Some facts whieh prove Its hypoc risy can be stated in this wise: Under the existing election law there is a County Board of Election for each county. These board, without exception almost, are com posed of democrats. These boards are r quired by Uw to appoint jud ges of the election to be held in An gust, aud that these judges shall b of different political parties.
