Not only were tbe Democrats more hopeful and determined than here tofore, bat mmy former I'jpuliste are uniting with them. At eaob plaoe there were everal good, hon est, enli antial farmers who had been toting the fusion ticket since 1892, and who declared that it is now time for ''all whiU men to get together. They declared that tbej could not etcnd "fusion" rule an longer and would vote with tbe Democrats next November. Among those who thus declared themselves ia favor of white su premacy was W W Edwards, E'q., who ia well known to most of our rea lera, being o- e of Chatham's most pronrnent citiz ns and the late president of tbe o.unty alliance. lie a 'tended the speaking at Siler Oitj (jear which plact he lives) and also at Harper's X Roads, and at the lat ter place be WuS called on for a ppeecb, after Messrs. llnyes and London bad spoken. lie rerpmded to tbe call in a short speech that incited muob enthusiasm.

He said that he was opposd to negroes ruling white people in any town in North Caro lina, and that it ws a shame and disgrace that any white man had to go to a negro Register of Deeds to get a license to marry ! Mr. Edwards deoluod that he had abandoned tbe Democratio party in 1892 b ?cause of Cleveland's finanoial policy, but as the Democrats at tbe Chicago convention, in 1696, had stolen tbe Populist's financial p'at fjrm be saw no reaion why he should not stand on it with thm for free silver in the nation and white supremacy in North Carolina.

For some time it has been whisp ered that Cabarrus county was soon to have a marriage of a couple well known both here and elsewhere, and now it is no more a tecret. The parties who will soon make 'heir promises of love known are Miss Addie Boger, of Flowes, and Mr. Will Foil, of neir Mt. Pleasant. Miss Boger is from one of tbe best known and wealthiest families in oni county, and his many friends in the county. She is liked by all who know her and our county will lose one of its most popular young folks. Mr. Foil is well known and is a most polite, sociable and handsome young man. He, for quite a long while, has been in tbe employ of the Centraljhotel in Charlotte and made many friends while there. Tbe beautiful afl'iir will take place at the h me of Miss Boger's parents on ths evening of Wednes day, September 28;h, at 6 o'clock. After the ceremoiy the bridal conple will take tbe train for northern cities to spend some time. There will be fonr attendants one from Conoord, Miss Pearl Brown, who is a special friend of the bride-eleot. To Keep a "irlot Lookout For Them. Policeman Bost, at the depot, is still going to be more strict at the railway station in tbe future. He has b en ordered to keep all loafers away from in front of the waiting rojma, to keep all persons from get ting on and oft of trains unless for some business, and no blcyolists are allowed to ride on the wall-, along-. side of the track at the station, One young man has already been pulled for getting on and off the trains. The ordinance in regard to loafers is made on account of snch crowds congregating about the station, making it very embarrassing for la dies to have to ge through the crowds to get to the cars.

JSr. raldweU'e Npeerb at Lexington. Of Mr. Morrison Caldwell's epeech at Lexington tbe other day, in the discussion with Mr. Theo. Kluttz, the Lexington Dis hes the following : "Mr. Caldwell's reply to Mr K uf z was a lengthy .harangue igainat tbe Democrat?. At one minute he would abuse the Dt'mo rata for not accepting fusion with the I'jpulists aud a eeconed later would appeal to the Republicans arid negroes to support him and his party which failed to combine to beat them. He is a vigorous speaker --very much so. He pawed the air, he pounded books, he waived his arms and shook his bead, made ugly faces and slapped his hands until they were red as beets. Such antics may appeal to a few, but the time is passed when it will reach the fair minded and thinking people ot Davidson county."

Oae day last week a young lady of this city returning home on one of New Berne's public streets, carue to where three young negro men stood on the eidewalk in euch a way as to obstruct the way. They made no effort to move so as to let her pass. No white man was within seeing distance. Tbe intention of tbe ne groes was probably to compel the young lady, who indeed is but a girl, "standing with reluctant feet, where th6 stream and river meet," to pass between tbem. She chose to leave the walk in order to pass around them. As she did so and roached a point opposite the three negroes, one of tbe brutes, seeing what he consid ered "airs" in the young lady, stretohod out and slapped ber in the face I She reached her home as quickly as possible and told what had ocs curred. To make the matter more appalling, if possible, the young lady is an orphan and has no natn ral protection. Is there a white man in North Carolina who doos not wish he was near when the blow was struck ? AND THIS TOO. Some days previous to this a young lady of this city, walking on Trent river bridge had an expo rience that brings tears of anger to her eyes whener she remembers it. Trent river bri 'go will be paid fir mainly by the people of Craven oiuoty. The negroes will have the main benefit of its use. They seem to think that like the court house and publio building and other plaoes, that it is theirs. The young lady mentioned is one of the loveliest of Southern woman hood.

The Feople's Party was denirous of co.op:rating with the Democrats in this c-riipaign to secure a victory for the white man and the white metal, aud made them a proposition to this effeot, which was turned down by the Ulevelauditee and Mc Kinley Democrats who controlled the recent Democratio State conven tion and captured the organization of the party, But strange to say, this very same crowd has made the "white man and white metal" (with slight accent on the "white metal") their campaign slogan. In the light of the above facts if this is not a hypocritical plea, then we fail to know the dtCnition of hypocrisy. Caucasian. The z al of tbe Caucasian and other Populist organs of the same stripe for fusion w.th the Republi cans gives the l e to tbe statement that "tbe Populist party was desir ous of coopera'ing with the Diio-, orals," etc. What as sufp3Cted by Democrats when the Cy Thorrpson piopositiou wes submitted to their convention is a) clear a? du light now, viz; that the professed desire for co-operation was a false pre teosp, a hollow sharr, a bise decep tion. A party that was sincerely de eirous in May of co operating to "se cure a victory for the white man and the white metal" would not be fonnd in September fusing with the party of the black man and the yel low metal. It is worthy of note that the Democratio party, which rejected the overtures of the Or'i;cisian's crowd, is supporting only white mea and white metal men for ( flbe, while our virtuens contemporary is split ting its shirt to help ehct negroes and white gold bugs .

But Po;-ulis' organs hud not brt n discovered wheu those lines were writ er, or they would have been revibed to fit the case of the Cau casian, which has been weaving a tangled web for several jeais, and seems no nearer to acquiring the art of keeping a story straight th in when it entered upon its wild career.
