ANSWER IS FINAL. ftapabliaaaa Say Tbay will Maka ao Farihar Haply toPopallata Saaator Prttahard to Matrtbata Soath ra Vatrooac. Senator .Pritchard left this morn ing on the Seaboard vestibule for Washington. This will be,- the senator's first visit to the national capital since his re-election. Be will remain there only a few days, however, when he" will journey to Canton to visit President elect McKicley. The object of Senator Pritchard 's visit to the president elect is said to be in relation to the distribution of patronage to the faithful in this state. It was stated today that Senator Pritchard would push Col. Jas. E. Boyd's claims for a seat in the cabi net. While away the senator will doubtless locate Rev Hi Budger for the next four years, who according to reports from those on the inside . will be rewarded with the best pi urn alloted to North Carolina. That the tar-heel state will fare better in the distribution of federal patronage han any other Southern state, there s little doubt. Mr. Pritchard is the only republican' senator in the senate from the South and as his vote will be necessary to enact any republican legislation whatever, it can be imagined that he will do the talking for the entire South. North Carolina will receive more federal officers then she has ever had before. The race question has at last cropped out among our legislators. It has assumed an Interesting and amusiug form. In the division of offices the popu lists were awarded the enrolling clerk and the republicans were al lowed tbren assistants. The popu lists elected Mr A L Swinson, of Wayne. The republicans elected among the number allotted to them, two colored men, W K Quick, of Rockingham and one Young. Swinson notified the darkies that no colored man oould serve on bis force. Last night the republican caucus took the matter up. A com mittee consisting of Cook, Docknry and Hancock was appointed to inform Mr Swinson that he must acoept the colored men who were the duly ac credited representatives of the re publican party. The committee is to report back to the caucus. The reply of the republican caucus to the populist caucus to the effect that the republicans were willing to co-operate with the populists mem bers of tbejlegislature as in the past, but were not willing to settle the differences inside the populist party, is final. The republicans will not caucus again on the matter. That was the general .opinion today among all classes of republicans. Spencer Blackburn said the republicans made' their fi nal statement lart night Butler is pleased. He has the republicans where' he wants them. When they go to enact party legis lature he has another high card which will play. They say it is a corker. The republicans and min ority populists will necessarily have to act together. The regular popu lists declare that.tbe combination will be unable to tarry both branches. n xne lotiowmg resolution was adopted unanimously by-the popu list caucus last night"? 'y. "Resolved that if ihe" republican caucutf fails to keep its contract of co-operation between our organisr tioq and its organization and fails to give usan affirmative answer to our resolution tomorrow, night that we then disclaim ail responsibility for any and all legislation that may be passed by the majority of -the-legls- lature composed of the republican members' and the bolting populists. , "ResQlved that we as individuals will not accept . any patrqnage or favors unless It be offered us by this oauous. - ., y , "Resolved, that this oauous 'will not accept or distribute any patron age except it come under, by virtue of and in fulfillment of the co-opera tive contract made last summer as a matteifrf right" Tha yea and nay vote was called on this and "it was unanimously adopted.

She has been identified with the dra matic profession Since she was a child, and ber success as a star has been an artistio triumph from the first without doubt. She is the most versatile lady upon the stage today playing" at popular prices. Her range of parti is most varied being a rolicklng soubrette one night, doing" i heavy emotional part the next, and being equally at home in tnalecharacteritttlon9. jFirst in her support we would make mention of Mr. Charles P King, who has devoted soma twenty odd years to the study and advancement of the profession of which he is an honored member. J&is best success is in suob parts as pamon in "Damon and Pythias"; Welfred Denver in the "Silver King" and other equally as strong romantic lends. Next in line comes Mr. Will E. Kelfer. The comedian with the com pany, is "a man of many "parts." He is not only an experienced man in his profession, but has held en gagements in some of the very best metropolitan companies, having been with the Frohman's for o?er four years, playing leading comedy parts. Among othersare Mr. Frank E. Gavin, a character actor who has been identified with some of the best known eastern companies for years. Mr. O. F. Mitchell, another well known legitimate actor, for the last three years with: John Griffith's "Faust Company," and Mr. Charles D. Hammond, the manager, who has been identified with his present cal ling about twenty years, both as an actor and a manager. He was for years a- member Of the newspaper world. Mr. Hammond is a bard, conscientious worker who is deserv ing of success. In our interview with him we put the question, "Why do you play at such low prices of ad mission?" and bis answer was, "I am impelled to this by the demands of the times, and I find that the ma jority of the people are not able to pay the high prices for en tertainment that has prevailed for years, and -it- Is foe -the purpose of meeting these demands that I am playing at what we calf popular prioas, giving the publio the same plays with the same attention to de tails as do the higher priced compa nies of the past and totW." The company remains at the Me tropolitan Opera House all this week, playing "East Lynne" Thursday night, and concluding their engage ment Saturday night with that great historical play of "Damon and Py thias," with a matinee Saturday af ternoon at 2 o'clock. Go and enjoy an evenings entertainment at ine extremely low price of 10, 20 and 30 cents. Lectures at Ibe University.

Tribuue of yesterday says : The annual meeting of the South ern Building snd Loan association convened yesterday in this city and a committee was appointed on ways and means, that held a meeting last night and they will report today at nine o'clock. It is understood that important changes will be recom mended. Meinbersfrom thirty states are present and the meeting today promises to be a decidedly Interest ing one. At two o'clock tho annual meeting of the Southern Building and Loan association was called to order and Hon. J. R. Miller, of Virginia, was elected chairman. Quite a discussion ensued on the present status of af fairs of the association, and the fol lowing committee on ways and means was appointed to report the best plan and methodsfor the future good of the company and the stock holders.

The committee ou ways and means held a meeting last night in room No. 4 in the Imperial, and after the most careful consideration the com mittee formulated a report that will practically cover the following: That the receivership be made permanent in order to permit the association to secure from each stockholder a con sent to a change in everything to meet the condition required by the change in the construed law of Ten nessee; to secure new contracts with borrowers; to reduce the rate of in terest; also to make such other changes as may be necessary to bring the association conduct of bu siness to the basis that experience has proved to bo the wisest and safest. A cut in the salaries of the officers and directors will be recom mended from the present rate- One of the strange things the of building and loan as sociations is the fact that ex peri ence has not borneoutanticipations. It was expected that stock in the Southern would mature in eighty- four months, but now some of the Southern stockholders claim that it will take 168 months to mature. One of the stockholders of the Southern stated last night that the company has plenty of assets but the trouble is these hard times is to realize cash on the securities.

To the Sons of Conf derate Veterans in North Carolina: On the 3rd day of last June, in the city of Richmond, Vs., the camps of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, then organized, were formed into an association to be called "the United Sons of Confederate Veterans," the same to be governed by a constitu tion and by-laws similar to that of "the United Confederate Veterans," and having departments, divisions, brigades and camps under a general head. The state of North Carolina not having a sufficient number of camps to form a division, General J E B Staurt, in accordance with the con stitution, appointed a major-general for the division of North Carolina, whose duty should be to have com mand of the camps already formed, to organize others wherever it can be done, and to put forth an earnest effort tor tne tfood of the cause, to the end that there may be instilled into the sdds of Confederate veterans in North Caro lina a proper veneration for the spirit and tflory of their fathers; and to bring them into association with our organization, that they may aid in accomplishing the nobJe and glo rious purpose for which our organi zation was formed . We believe that there exists in the bosom of every son of a canfederate soldier a love and patriotism for the holy cause his father held so dear, which needs but to be stirred to bring him to join heart and hands with those who seek to keep ever fresh the hallowed memory of North Carolina's noble sons who fill a thou sand nameless graves. This is in deed our purpose, and for the ac- complishmentof thisoursister states have almost perfect organizations. Shall North Carolina be behind ? Shall this state which of all Others of the south sent more men to the civil, war, bo lacking in this work ? Let it not be so, bui noble sons of noble fathers band yourselves together toaid us in thi work. If there is a camp in youi section join it at once; if not and there is a camp of confederate veter ans, secure the aid its commandei and adjutant and form a camp; writt- to the division headquarters and you will be furnished with informa tion in regard to the forma tionofacamp, electtion of officers. or any other aid which may be need ed. When you are properly organ ized your camp will be placed on the roll of "the United Sons of Confeder ate Veterans." Robert C. Norfleet, Major General Commanding. Winston, N. C, Jan. 18, 1397.
