Oae year ago Captain Perry, in' arresting SaVS JuclfJC Goff. and the an escaieu cootici in iienaer?on couniy, was badly wouodeoy and will, in all probability. be disabled for fife. There seems to be some apprehension among hia friends that be will be supers- ceded by some one else, under the exist ing s atus of affairs, but I cannot believe that an officer 8) capable and ff arlesi as Capt. Perry ..will be displaced. It would ceitiinly redound to the credit of the State, as well as the Repub lican party to retain in office a man who has jeopardized his life on many occa sions to preserve tne integrity or. tne State, and on one received a wound, which will forever unfit hirn from engag ing in the activities of a struggle for existence.

I favored liis nomination as the Republican candidate in 1888, and there has been no time since that I would not have made him President if i had been within my power. It is my opinion that three-fourths of the Republicans in North Carolina desire the nomination of McKinley at St Louis; and, besides this, there are any number of gentlemen in North Carolina "who have heretofore voted for the Democrats but who are now inclined to the Republicans, and in every instance this class prefer McKinley. They look upon him as the representative of the true Ameri can, idea and they feel that he would inaugurate a policy as President which would tend greatly to the development of the material resources of our State. Besides this, they are impressed with his great ability and rmvp entire confidence in his political and personal integrity. There is another strong point which tends to make him the favorite with the South, and that is the fact that he was a gallant Federal soldier during the late war. Our "boys who wore the gray" (and I was one of them) have always had the greatest respect and admiration for the "boys in blue," and now, when the passions and prejudices engendered by the unfortunate . . . . , . i j j i i .1 conflict and the causes which led to it nave 10 a great extent uisappeareu, and the men who oppose sectionalism in politics are no longer tolerated here, it is but natural that our people should prefer to honor a brave sol dier who fought for the Union and assisted in maintaiiiing in its integ rity this great jmd free government. North Carolina is rapidly advancing to the front as a manufacturing ... - i ; 1 -f State. For cotton fabrics of all classes weume an innm-use euppry raw material immediately at our doors. Our timbers and woods are in great variety and quantity. Coal, iron, mica and other minerals are here t abundance, and we only need capital, well-directed energy, and the fos tering care of the protective principles of the Republican party to make i- TT it- -fVinf orerr m o n trbn xrnnlf? mnl'P us a prosperous peopie. jituue it is " "v " North Carolina what she ought to be, looks with hope to the return to power of the Republican party, and he at the same time points to Wm. McKinley as the logical leader of the party under present conditions. With such lights before me, you can readily realize why it is that I am partial to Governor McKinley in the contest for the Republican nom ination of a Presidential candidate. I want to see the "bolid bouth a thing of the past, and I long for the day when North Carolina can be safely counted in the Republican column. I firmly believe that such time is now at hand, and that in the coming election we will vote in the Electoral College for William McKinley. Yours very truly, James E. Boyd.
