SPLENDID TICKET NAMED SATURDAY. Largestand Most Representative Body of the White Hanhood of Vance Ever Assembled on a Like Occasion En thusiastic, Determined, Harmonious the Spirit Characterized by Their Every Act and Utterance C2pt. Sha w Endorsed for Congress. It anything was needed to how the determination of the white peo ple of Vance county to purify the political atmosphere, put an end to the rule of negro magistrates and negro representatives in the Legisla lure, etc., the Democratic county con vention Saturday furnished it. Never has a larger or "more representative bodv oT the sturdy and sterling man hood of the county assembled on a like occasion. Kverv section of the county was represented, each delega tion having many more than the strength of its precinct vote. There was perfect harmony and a spirit of zeal and determination characterized every act and utterance. .Maj. XV. V- Gary, chairman of the County Executive Committee, called the convention to order and named Mr. James !. Young temporary chair man. This announcement was greet ed with enthusiastic applause and uprjn taking the stand Mr. Young delivered a shoi t but stirring speech. He scored sev ral telling points and was warmly applauded. Thad R. Manning was requested to act as tem porary secretary. The lirst bu'siness in order being the selection of permanent ollicers Capt. L. R- Crocker, of Middleburg, was elected chairman a:id Will X. Colev and Thad R. Manning secre taries. I'pon being escorted to the chair Capt. Crocker said he was no politician and no public speaker. Rut he could not be true to himself and the cause for which the white men of Vance county had come together if he did not express his high sense of appreeiat iori of the honor conferred upon him and say something of the importance of the political issues be fore us and the necessity of every man doin his part from now until the elect io:i in August. Capt . Crocker said when he looked into the faces of the honest men before him he could not ! 1 1 ! a more iemesl ue except, he go into their homes and i iok into the faces of their mothers and sisters, their wives and daughters. He tried to cerci-c Christian foibearanee he said but he did not know how he could do it toward the man who allied him-clf with an inferior race against, hi - own people and the n l interests of his own section and country. The ;nc:it problem now confronting us is not a political iiestion. it i- one of social order, above pditics an 1 un co'iliucd bv party lines, ('apt. Crocker made a very pracCcal, sensible talk and was warmly applauded. Declaring the convention ready f the transaction of business the nomi nation of candidates for county offices was gone into. For Sheriff 11. M. Person nominated K. A. Powell. T. M. Pittman nominated Stephen Leon ard Watkins. Roll call was proceeded with. Seeing the result before tin; vote was announced Mr. Pittman arose and moved that the nomination of Mr. Powell iie made unanimous.

The. vote was exceedingly close; re sulting in the nomination id' Mr. Rob bitt bv a very. small margin L"J ;- to -27 l-i. When it came to the nomination of a candidate for the Legislature. XV. A. Hunt said he thought it was time to send a white man to represent Vance county in such capacity. This state ment elicited hearty applause and when he suggested t lie name of A. C. ZollicotTer in that connection the demonstration was great. Mr. Zol licofYer declined and nominated Wil liam P.. Daniel. A. J. Harris nomi nated J. II. Rridgers, each gentleman paying merited tribute to the high character and exalted virtues of his candidate and the peculiar fitness and eminent qualifications possessed by him. Owen Davis nominated R. II. Southerland. as a sturdy young farm er, one who has stood firm ami stead fast under all circumstances, and one who has the requisite qualities of a good representative. Mr. Dorsey saiil he approved of all that had been said of Mr. Rridgers and Mr. Southerland. but he desired to endorse the nomina tion of .Mr. Daniel, paying him a high compliment in doing so. Mr. Souther land would not permit his name to go before the convention and the roll was called. Rut few precincts had announced their vote when Mr. Rrid gers moved the suspension of the roll call and that Mr. Daniel's nomination be made unanimous. For CoronerS. Dean w as nominated by XV. W. Parker. Mr. ZollicotTer seconding it. The nomination was made by acclamation. Col. XV. II. Hood was nominated for Surveyor by acclamation, thus com pleting the ticket. The question of a State Senator was brought forward. Vance beingentitled to the candidate this ti ne according to the understanding with Warren" these two counties composing the Eleventh Senatorial district. W. A. Hunt suggested that the convention endorse a candidate and named Mel ville Dorsey. Capt. Shaw seconded it iu a most happy and felicitous manner and although Mr. Dorsey had signified his inability t accept, at the time his name was li st mention ed, it was "hoped Show's speech would fetch him." He sp ike candidly and patriotically and g..-.e reasons why he could not accept t':e nomina tion. The name of Maj. ('a: v was then suggested, and glowing tributes were paid him by several gentlemen pres ent. Rut he too had peculiar rea sons" why he could not accept. In words which were the prompt ings of a generous nature and too kind partiality rather than the n-e:it of the subject upon which lo- .poke, A. C. ZollicotTer nominated the e'iitor of the Gold Leaf, paving him -uch tribute as to make him all the more sensible of how far he fell short of the estimate placed upon him in the enlo- v so eloquently and forcibly pro- ; nounced. Rut we seek not political j preferment and aspire to no higher j honor than being able in some slight measura at least to till the place and j render the service which our good friend laid all loo great stress upon. j and so we likewise begged to be ex- ; eused. ! A. J. Harris moved the appoint ment of 1 delegates from each pre cinct to meet with the delegates from Warren, said Senatorial convention to be held iu the court house in Hender son next Saturday, for the purpose of nominating a candidate. This motion prevailed and the following were named : East Henderson A. J. Harris. J. II. Rridgers. South Henderson Dr. 1'. A. Maeon, Owen Davis. West Hen derson Gen. W. II. Cheek, J. L. Cur rin.

P. Alslo'n. Mr. ZollicolVer spoke of the ap proaching meeting of the Magistrates for the purpose of electing a Hoard of County Commissioners, ami suggest ed that the convention recommend gentlemen for that otiice. This brought out considerable discussion and developed some little opposition. But when it was asserted that the object was merely to get the sense of the convention and that its action was not to be construed as binding or in any way a reflection upon the Mag istrates, the motion prevailed. The form of the motion as adopted is as follows: It is the sense of this con vention that the ''Commissioners now in office be re-elected, and that 2 ad ditional Commissioners be elected,. A. J. Harris offered the following preamble anu resolution wiiicii was unanimously adopted: Whekkas, Vance Cointy has heretofore hail but littl", if any, recognition in the dist iliution of otliees; and, Whkkeas, We believe we have men suitable to till certain positions with credit to themselves and honor to the Deino ci atic p:it y; and , Wheukas, Among this list is Capt.

The oc casion was the union in the bonds of matrimony of Copt. Wade H. Britt mid Miss Mamie Cannady. The contracting parties are well known to t hccommuuit v. The irrooiii is the son of Mr. John T. Britt, editor of the Public Ledijcr, mid is well mid favorably known in the county and State. He is a younj; man of ster ling worth and strength of character. Miss Cannady is the eldest daughter of .Mrs. .Marv t annady and the late John V. Cannady, nnd the grand daughter of the lute Kev. Josiah Crudup, uho. in his day. was one of the fiit men in the State. She is held in high esteem by her many friends nnd acquaintances because oi her charms of heart and mind. After the attendants had taken places around the altar. Miss Katie Cannady, maid-of-honor mid sister of the bride, entered by the central aisle, followed by the bride, graceful ami fair, and becom ingly attired in a handsome going-a way gown of tan. She leaned on the arm of her brother, Mr.X. II. Cannady, by whom she was given away. Proceeding to the altar the pariy was nu t by the groom, who entered from the Pastor's i-tud.v accoinnanied by Mr. Julian S Carr. Jr., of Durham, bet man. Impressively now the words are spoken by Kev. J.S. Hurdaway which unite two lives in one; troths are plighted, vows are spoken and the ring, emblem of un broken love and lasting devotion, is placed upon the hand of the bride. The ceremony was that of the Episcopal church, and beautiful mid instructive is the language which, spoken by man. de clares the will of (iod.

Personal Work Needed A Talk With Candidates Preparing for Extra Lezislalivc Session The "Summer Capital" Numerous News Note3. l From Our Regular Correspondent.) Kai.kioii. X. C. May 2!b 1000. Several of the Dcmocratic'State candi dates were here hist week, and I talked with them. It has bfii six weeks now since they began their splendid campaign. Within That period they have done much for the cause they represent. So far as argument and oratory along general lines would accomplish it, they have made converts of many who listen ed To the great political truths they pro claimed for the munwho will not be im pressed through The medium of such a skillful debater and peerless orator as the matchless A.vooek cannot be reached by such methods. I'KKSONAI. WOltk XKIIDKII. And here is the first point I desire to raise: All the voters cannot be reached by such means; as a matter of a fact, tliere is a larger percentage of them who are laboring under error in this cam paign That will never be brought within the folds of Democracy by this effort alone. I fear and in making this asser tion I am supported by no less authority than Mr. Aycock himself. Personal work is needed. Democrats want to talk and argue with their neighbors about the great issue of this campaign. estecially in the West where .so many well-meaniiig white men have bi-ell lied To by The opposition w ith regard to the effects upon them of the adoption of the amendment. A world of good can be accomplished in this way. IIASIIKlt OI" OVKi! fO.NFlllKXI K. Another matter of importance- is to guard against that often fatal error. over confidence. I have seen and talked with several of the candidates on the State ticket during the past week. While all of them are ex ceedingly hopeful and sanguine and al most assured of success certainly if The election should occur to-morrow yet each of them spoke of the danger of over confidence. Let our people; "keep np the lick till alter the closing ot the polls. Be not weary in well doing. Kelax not your efforts or your vigilance for a single dav, a single hour. I he enemy s cam paign will be carried on largely on bush whacking principles and you've got to watch em. Keep your imickest ami most reliable finger on i he t rigger of nction constantly; meet and disprove these current talse hoods with which the enemv is attempt ing to poison the mind of illiterate voters. and negro domination will in August be made impossible again in North Carolina forever. But ail good Democrats must be constantly alert, vigilant and active to accomplish this good result. I here is none so humble that he cannot do some thing for the cause. ACTION OF TDK KXTIi A KKNSIO.V We are beginning to make arrange ments here to receive The legislators who will soon assemble in adjourned session and it is to be hoped That every Demo cratic member will be present. While, of course, no general legislation will be taken up. it is probable That a few matters which urgently demand at tention just nowwill receive it. Three of these are the passage ot the lextih School bill; the legalizing of the St.-.ti j'rimarv lor isenator. and the modii.c.i tion of The law which unexpectedly com pelled some oi the leading insurance com jinnies to cease business in North Caro lina a result never intended. Speaking ot This bitter i'iiiitijim..w.v ort.v a prrmiinonT Democrat, m no way connected Ayith insurance matters, said to me: -- made some enquiry into this matter and lound that- seven ot the com panics which have found it necessary to withdraw (on account of conflicting pro visions in their home charters) are the leading ones of The country and most reliable, and that by their withdrawal the State is now bcingdeprived of a great deal oi revenue enough to pay tin salaries oi every Mate official m the capt t!l building:" As there is no earthly reason why this state of affairs should continue, it would seem to be well worth the brief space of time it would take the Legislature to remedy the error. I hear that when the session adjourns it win not be a sine die adiournnieut. but that another recess will be Taken, so That if necessary the body can again assem ble in adjourned session. XOliTH CAKOI.INA'S -'SI MMHK CAI'lTAt.. The gayest place in North Carolina for the next tour months, and the most com fort able and anjoyable. will be Morohend City and when we say Morehead City we mean, of course. The Atlantic Hotel there, which is the biggest part of the cn ami ine inecca ot pleasure-seekers ami rued and worn out business men and their families on a hunt for a suitable place to recuiM'i-ate. For several years the "Atlantic has been one of the most popular seaside resorts in the South, but this season (and the season there liegins next Friday) it will eclipse all former records and vie and compete in the splendor of its entertainment with any similar resort North or South. I had a talk to-day with Mr. C. Beaure gard Poland, the traveling representative oi ine Atlantic, and m reply to my enquiries anent the character of t hi guests and the territory to be drawn on this season, he surprised me by showing me a partial list of the "bookings" he has made lately in reserviiigaccoiiimodations for some of the best known public men and representative business and profes sional men (and their families) ja seven States, viz.. Kentucky. Tennessee, South Carolina. Alabama. Virginia. Mississippi. Coorgia. and also Washington, especially from Kiclunond. Atlanta, as well as manv other Southern cities and towns. Many of these names anyone would recognize by reputation. As To Noith Carolina, the management state they have never had such a large nor so desirable a crowd as is promised this season, and preparations for Their comfort and entertainment were never so elaborate and well looked after before. This season the Messrs. Barbee. of Kal eigh. proprietors, have secured two of the best hotel and summer resort men in the country to manage the Atlantic Messrs. U. XV. and L. W.Scoville. of Atlanta, pro prietors of the Aragon Hotel, of Atlanta. It is said that their suierior is not to be found. Xext Friday. June 1st. the owning ball will take place iu the magnificent ball room of the Atlautic and from then on there will lw a constant round of impor t! nt and pleasurable events taking place. Kaleigh will send several hundred guests, including some of her Iwautiful women. I.ATK NEAVS NOTES. Chajiel Hill Baptists have extended a "call" to Kev. J. William Jones, the well known Confederate parson. It is stated that the case of Judge F.wart. who will necessarily have to re tire from the Fnited States bench, has occupied more time in the Tinted States Senate and in committees at Washington than any similar place in the history of Congress. The President's implied prom ise (made through a Senator to the com mittee on the judiciary) not To again re appoint Ewart saved the Judge from a unanimously unfavorable report. It is Udieved that Linney will lie the next ap pointee. Can Ae be confirmed. It looks as though Koanoke Island will get a Kaleigh monument (to cost o.OOO) at last, through the efforts, chiefly, of Congressman Small. And that's right, for Sir Walter's visit to that spot had considerable to do with the presence of Mr. Small and the balance of Congress in Washington to-day if you will ennit the observation. President McXamee. of the State Fair, hopes to seenre the presence of a troop of Fnited States Cavalry at the next fair. Their nianeuvres will be well worth your time to witness. Hon. Richard II. Battle, of Kaleigh, who has accepted the invitation of the Vance Monument Committee to deliver the ad dress on the occasion of the unveiling of the bronze statue of that eminent North Carolinian, in Capitol Park (probably July 4th), was the private secretary of Governor Vance during his first term as the State's Chief Magistrate, during the war, and is as familiar with his subject is aiiv living man. Mr. Battle is. more over, one of the most polished orators ind interesting speakers in the Mate. having few equals as such. It is an nd mirable selection and the address alone will be worth coming miles to hear. President J. Bryan (irimes. of the 1 o- bacco ("rowers Association, Secretary T. B. Parker and others of a committee met here a few days ago find consulted with regard to the work of complete organiza tion now going on. Favorable progress was reported, and the "Jordan plan is still believed to be the ltest submitted for accomplishing the objects desired.
