A Lively Solicitorial
Fifth District How
ties Mr. Settle.
Special Cor. State Chronicle.
Winston, N. C, Oct. 20. Yester
day the Solicitorial candidates, Messrs.
Barber and Settle, sounded the tocsin
in these parts. The general opinion of
those who heard them speak was that it
was one of the most heated campaigns
ever seen in the district or anywhere
considering the fact that they carefully
avoided personal abuse. A tremendous
crowd greeted them at 1 o'clock in th
opera house, the gallery beins filled
with colored men and the lower floor
with white. Mr. Barber, the Demo
cratic candidate. ODeued the dehatp.
and the audience was soon found in a
regular uproar of applause as slug after
slug ot solid fact he would hurl at Mr.
Settle. He explained the trickery of
the Republican party in the National
Congress, dwelt at length on the Lodge
election measure ana showed bv the
McKiuley tariff how the Republican par
ty legislated for the monopolist and the
Democratic party for the masses.
Tiieu he went tor Mr. Settle and ask
ed him if he endorsed the Force bill; if
the McKinley legislation was intended
to increase the price of articles for the
consumer or to raise the price for the
benefit of the manufacturer; for whom
he was going to vote for Congress. Mr.
liarber then declared that Chas. Price.
the Republican candidate for Chief Jus
tice of the Supreme court.had never Vo
ted the Republican ticket, and demand
ed a proof to the contrary from Mr,
Settle. He asked him if he endorsed
the Constitution of the State and of the
United States, and charged he (Settle)
endorsed no action of the Republican
Congress, neither the Lodge or McKin
ley bills that were passed. He closed
with a plea for Mr. Settle not to squirm
and twist about on the question, of
which he would support for Congress,
Moore or 15 rower. lis speecn was a
great surprise to the crowd, who had
never before heard him. It was spark
ling with happy political hits and hot
with slugging argument. He took his
seat mid storms of applause.
Mr. Settle then rose with one of those
haughty airs which is common to tha
set of men who try to show their con
tempt of an audience by keeping their
hat on. (He sat upon the stage with
his hat on). The same old song pealed
forth in slick, greasy and easy strains;
and he made a graceful action ou the
stage before his colored constituency,
which grinned at every attempt at wit.
He had a hard position to defend and it
must be admitted that he did it tolera
bly well, not by dealing in straight cut
slugs of logic,but by interesting generali
ties. He said to the astonishment of his

hut Mr. Barber nuicklv informed him
of the fact that he was a nice man to be

that. He further charged Mr. Settle
with being a railroad attorney and rid

time being paid by the State to prose

people present to witness the consum

universally popular.
At y o'clock the church be:l t2H.i o
chime and heralded the arrival of the
bridal party. In a brief while the sweet
tones again rang out which announced
the marriage of the happy twain.
1 he attendants came m the follow
ing order: Messrs. H. A. Gilliam, Jr.
and V. M. Pippen ushers: Messrs.
Henry Johnston and Jos. Philips;
Misses MaryBunn, of Rocky Mount and
lielle liagley, ot Raleigh; Messrs. Geo.

H. Parker, Bingham School, and
SaraJackson,Pittsboro;Misses Mary Kerr

ips, maid of honor. The bride came
in on the arm of her father and was
met at the altar by the groom who
came out of thevestry on the arm of Mr.
James W. Walker, of High Point, who
was best man.
After the marriage they left the
church in the following order:
H. A. Gilliam and W. M. Pippen,
ushers; Mr. and Mrs, H. W. Jackou;

The bridesmaids, save the maid of
honor, were arrayed in white silk
mulle, gold lace girdles. The maid of
honor was most becomingly attired in
yellow satin.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
J. B. Cheshire.
The church was a most resplendent
scene, and never before has such a bril
liant marriage occurred in this place.
The bridal party was composed of as
handsome couples as can be found any
where, arid for attractive appearance
they could not be surpassed.
It was a most sublime spectacle to
observe the party marching in church to
the beautiful aud inspiring wedding
march, and truly it can be said that 'all
we.it merry as a marriage bell."
After the ceremony was performed,
the merry party repaired to the resi
dence of Judge Philips where a most
superb and sumptuous collation was
prepared for a few iuvited frieuds, aud a
most blissful evening was spent by the
entire party.
The interest manifested in this mar
riage aud the large crowd that attended
the church fully attest the high esteem in
which the young people are held.
Miss Philips is one of the most
charming, beautiful, attractive and ac
complished young ladies of the place
is greatly beloved and admired.

Oneof the most enjoyable lectures it has
ever been the good fortune of the stu
dent body of this institution to hear,
was that delivered last Saturday on the
subject of "State Education" by Prof.
E. A. Alderman. For over two hours
the gifted gentleman held the attention
of his audience, and when he had fin
ished nothing but the highest praise
could be said in reference to it. We
were all charmed by his graceful bear
ing, elegant diction aud appropriately
expressed ideas. He so charmed us
that we forgot he was binding us bv

run a road between the two points.
The parties who returned inform your
correspondent that it means a through
trunk line from Norfolk to Cincinnati.
The line will start trom Norfolk over
the road already built to Tarboro and
extended to Stanhope, Nash Co. From
thence it will go to Raleigh where it
connects with the regular Richmond

Wilkes boro the road is in course of con

will connect with the South Atlantic and
Ohio road which is being pushed forward

him as he goes on performing his noble

Wake exhibit is on the left of the front
