The article is written by Ansa ri fllA WVlMMn UMVt auu aw W yaw vw sensations of the hour. It will no doubt cause the Pritehard forces a good deal of anxiety. At 3:30 this evening Senator But ler saidt "I do not oonoede the elec tion of Senator Pritehard by any means." His views are expressed io( the Caucasian article which ap pears herewith: "There appeared in the News and Observer this morning (Wednesday) just as the Caucasian was going to press, a list of sixteen Populist mem bers of the legislature (six Senators and ten Representatives) who, it is claimed, will bolt the People's party caucus to Support Mr. Pritehard for the Senate. Col. Harry Skinner is reported as authority for this list. We do not believe the list is correct; In fact we know it is not correct. Several whose names are in the list have informed the Caucasian that it Is false as far as they are concerned. Therefore we repudiate this charge made by Col. Skinner as a slander on these members as well as on the party. It has not been possible for us to see all of those who Col. Skin ner says will bolt, therefore we wilt not at this time publish the names of buy in fact we can not believe that any of them would bolt his party. Butif there is any one who intends to bolt he ought to have the courage to get out of the party now and not sit in any further caucus. -."'. e a . a ' ' a A. "in toe Drier time we nave naa w Interview them we are unable to give the exact statements of those .who make denial, but .14 of thel6 state that they did not authorize any state ment.. Most of this number were emphatic that they would abide by the action of the People's party cau cus. The two who would, make no denial of the charge are Senator G. L. Hardison, of Craven, and Senator Barber, of Lincoln. ' "This charge was a slanderon the People's party. We regret exceed ing that thero is any truth what ever in it. "A resolution was passed by the Joint populist caucus last night that very member: would abide by the caucus notion. Certainly any one , who did not intend to , abide by the caucus action in 'all matters should and would have withdrawn then. But it Isjgenerally understood that Col. Skinner is using every effort to get members to bolt If his pur pose is to 'disrupt and split the party ' will condemn his course.", . In the republican caucus last . night, three republican mombers of ttia lAfViolflfnp fallft ii Ioa-. whan the motion was put to endorse Sena tor Pritehard fof re-election to the Senate by arising vote. Mr. Claude - Dockery asked that he be excused from voting,' because under certain circumstances he would be forcedJO violate the Vesolution. ' As is well known, Mr, Dockery 's father, Col; O. H. Dockery is a candidate for the . senate and in the event that his election becomes possible Mr Claude Dockery will support him. Ex- Congressman Bfower and anotticr ' member failed to stand when the rising vote was'taken, - A republi , can bp id . this morning, B rower - wouldn't stand up if Christ should command him. Republicans say ttat the defection of these three republicans ddee not effect Senator. Pritehard 's chances in the least. It is claimed by Priteh ard 's friends that the Senator will havea goodj majority to spare with the populist votes. ' Senator Butler and his associates have not closed their work-Sena tor Butler stated this morning to friends that he did not, believe Pritehard could be re-elected. The Senator has never stopped his cam palgn against bis colleague and to day his forces were at work as on yesterday. The fact of the defection of. the three Republicans has given the auti-Pritehard Populists renew ed hope Senator, Butler will con trol the Populist caucus. , ' Congressman Skinner says there are twenty-seven members who will support Pritehard, but this is de nied by the Butler crowd. It v. is apparent that some of the Pritehard populists will bolt the populist caucus. The number is Variously, estimated. Butler Is making his fight to keep-the popu lists from, bojtlng.- The populists Will caucus again tomorrow' night when the senatorial matter will un doutedly come up. : This morning thedemocratic mem bers of the legislature held a short caucus. Col, John S. Cunningham was unanimously nominated for speaker of the house. Capt A K Walters, placed Mr Cunningham in nomination in a graceful and wel) timed speech. The senatorial mat ter was discussed and the sentiment was that the democrats should snp- port a populist for Senator, who would be acceptable. At the populist caucus of sena tors today the following committee appointed to name th6 chairmen of the different committees which the populists are entitled to: J W At- water, J B Alexander, E F Wake field, T E McCaskey and GE Butler. The members of the legislature of different political faith caucused separately last night. Chairman A. E. Holton received the endorsement of the caucus for district attorney of the western dis trict. The populist and republican cau cuses each appointed committees to confer regarding the organization of the legislative office s. -The committees agreed to perfect organization on the basis of two years ago. The Populist caucus adjourned early. Mr. A. F. Hilemanof Cabar rus was unanimously nominated f"r speaker of the House. . . - When the proposition from the Democrats was entertained one Pop- list got up and left. He said that e did not propose to stay in a emocratic caucus. The Senatorial matter was discus sed but little. Congressman Skin ner delivered an eloquent speech in favor of Senator Pritehard. He read the letter from Senator-Priteh ard which was exhibited at the SkinneY conference yesterday. The letter was written by Pritehard in reply to one from Congressman Skinner. The part that refers to Mr. Pritehard 's financial views is given herewith : "I am strong friend of all the practical reforms contemplated by the Populist party and you may as sure such populist members of the Legislature as are inclined to vote for me that I will vote for the free coinage of silver by international agreement or by, independent action at the ratio of 16 to one, and further, I will take pleasure to vote to amend the National Banking act or system so as to permit farmers, as contem plated by the Sub Treasury plan, to borrow money and land upon stable crops." ' '. "Any statement that I have been or am now a single gold standard man Is without , foundation. It Is proper that I should be frank and state that I will not vote for free silver or anything else simply as a rider or obstruction to a protective tariff or any other remedial legisla tion. : ?v -y:-; - .?. The democratic caucus last night discussed the senatorial matter, at length. A sub-committee was ap pointed to wait upon the populists caucus and submit a proposition which was unanimously adopted looking to fusion on senator..' The substance of the proposition is: "Confiding in the people's party professions favoring free silver ire invite co-operation , with populist members of the .legislature in the election of an advocate of free silver,. opponents of trusts and combines, and an advocate of an income tax, to the U. S. Senate. If the people's party accept the t proposition, iwe pledge ourselves to abide by and perform theagreement entered into," The populist caucus appointed committee to take the matter under advisement, -The democratic com mittee was notified that the proposi tion had been reoeived and would have careful - consideration. All democrats In good standing were admitted to the caucus. At a conference of democrats yes terday it was the sentiment of those present that . Maj. W. A. Guthrie should be voted for by the demo crats for senator. v Senator Butler prepared a resolu tion yesterday which was to have been introduced in the Populist cau cus, but for some-reason it failed to materialize last night' The resolu tion provided for co-operation be tween republicans and populists on on the basis as observed two years ago, but pledged the populists not to vote for Senator Pritehard. In five minutes after the resolution was first disclosed by Senator Butler, Senator Pritehard was furnished with a copy of it. : -.
