JUDICIAL CONVENTION The One That Nominated Loftln for Judge Was Illegal. The Genuine Convention To Bo Held at Jacksonville Sept. 6th Wm. Barbee, chairman of the Populis executive committee of Onslow county and ex-chair, of the Populist coin, of the sixth judicial district, and A, F.

D. Koonce, the politician OI Unslow. , . ' The contention is that when . the coi vention met at Jacksonville Jun 80th and elected S. H. Bright chairman, ad journment took place on a motion to ad n0urn to a certain future date, nbt. later tnan August 20tn, tne day to be fixed by gr H.

THE JtTtEl i'BXSS believes that tne con- vention to be held nr Jnokunnvni nn September 6th is the onlv real and gen oine convention, and that the nominees Of that convention will be the only real and genuine Populist nominees. By all means that convention should put out a ticket. . There are as yet only three can didates forjudge, Allen, Lockey and Lof tin and only two for s solicitor, Duffy and Richardson.
