The grounds around the passenger station and IVnn avenue for some distance troni tin? railroad was . ... , crowded with people in vehicles and on foot. Wednesday to greet lion. Elias ('arr, the Democratic nominee for Governor of North Carolina, and ex-Go v. Thos. .1. Jarvis, the great leader and campaigner. J uev came on the mixed train from Raleigh, and were triven a warm reception. The committee of the Cleveland-Carr Williams Club and citizens crowded around them, and for a short while there were introductions and warm hand shaking. The distinguished speakers were taken to carriages in waiting, and a procession lormou and moved up town. The line was a long one and right imposing, and awoke no ineon- siderable enthusiasm. The proces sion turned into College street, thence to Main, down Main to High, then to Gilliam and up Gilliam street to the Osborn House, where Messrs. Cart- am! Jarvis registered. The speaking took place 1 o'clock in the large couitroom. Every seat was occupied and many persons stood up. The audience, composed of good Democrats from country and town, was m thorough accord with the speakers and applauded frequently aiid loud and long. H. M. Shaw, President Democratic Club, introduced our next governor in a very graceful little speech. Mr. Carr spoke for an hour, and discussed the issues in a plain, prac tical manner. His speech was well received and won him the friend ship of all who heard him. He was applauded again and again. Mr. Carr said he is simply a far mer, and lie understands the busi ness or the farm, and also knows something of the ills the farmers are groaning under. He spoke of agri- cultural degression, and that. he ha.d cast his lot with the toiling masses and was working for their relief. We have too many political issues, and he fears the people are losing sight of the principal issue to dethrone the Republican party, which is re- , 1 I ' i sponsible for the national banking laws, high tariff, demonetization of ! ile7 a?m fvagant federal pen- ?iiju:s. j. ue -Lfemocrats navft nnt seen the time since the war that thev , ,,1,1 n i r. t h could nass or rerpai a. niitmnQ lou. nu, i i- ry, Y.

You have heard a great deal about the St. Louis and Omaha platforms. x neir demands, except the govern- meuL owiuiismp ot railroads, lie ao- j ftwu yvuiu- uio-lju xjiiiiipjt;.-, uiii, me sins ot omission of the framers of those platforms are greater than their sins of commission in leaving out a tariff reform plank. He showed the intimate relations between protective tariff and our financial depression, and said our circulating medium will continue to be too 'small unless we lower the tariff. He did not hesi tate to make the statement that if we had a financial jubilee today and divided the money per capita, that in fifteen years the country would be in as deplorable financial condition as at present. Referring to the opposition to Mr. Cleveland in North Carolina, Mr. Carr said Mr. Cleveland is the nomi nee of our party and the complete exponent of the tariff reform move ment. It is is our duty and should be" our pleasure to support him. The Third party can do us a great injury by putting tlie Republicans into power again. 4 'Can the reform we so need be obtained in the Demo cratic part' ? God knows I believe so, or I would not; be where I am today." He beseeehed all his farmer friends to put aside wrangling: and stand together for Democracy. A. W. Graham introduced Mr. Jar vis, saying that he was a gov ernor who did for his State in the way of advancing its industrial in terests more than any two governors ever did before, and who was always ready to do battle for the people and for the cause of good government. Wild cheering attested Mr. Jarvis' popularity, and it broke out afresh when he appeared on the stand. It is safe to say no political speech made in Granville county ever sur- Passed this 01,0 :f onr ana truly patriotic ex-governor. n was eloquent, sound, temperate and masterly. It covered the whole field and covered it. completely. It met every political issue and met it fairly and square, and proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Democracy was right. It dealt deadly blows to the enemy, but there was no abuse. It. unmasked the scheming allied en emies of the Democratic party and showed them up in their true light. Pity it was that every man in our county did not hear it. Mr. Jarvis said: -I am seeking onlv the good of the people of North Carolina. I think 1 can tell the truth. If I believed the Democratic partv was hurtful to North Carolina and not better than any other politi cal partv I would leave it. If I be lieved the Third party was calculated to better advance the interest of North Carolina than any other polit ieal party I would support it. I have never seen the day that I did not love my State better than I did my party. He was here today to talk plainly, truthfully and , kindly of matters of great importance to the people, not to say anything harsh about anybody or any party. He was in llaleigh yesterday and saw some of the very men in the Third party convention who less than ninety days ago helped to nominate Elias Carr for governor.; (.an you have confidence in such men 'I (Yells of "No."") Three months ago the far mers said they wanted a farmer for governor. The Democrats nominated the best and truest farmer in the State. Mr. Carr is nothing else but a farmer. And now what do we see ? The Third partv convention first nominated a lawyer and as he was in favor of white supremacy he was forced to withdraw, and then they put up a doctor from Wayne. So it seems these men do not want a far mer they want a doctor. (Voice in the audience : "That is because they are sick !".) Well, they will need a doctor on election day. They fooled von at the May convention and they will fool you again if you elect them. They are not to be trust ed and they have proved it. Anahze the Third partv State ticket, and about all the candidates are Republicans but one and he is a doctor. The Third party is being run bv and in the interest of the Republican party.

C, August 16. - The scenes at today's Third party con vention here were unparalleled in North Carolina politics, and will never be forgotten. W. R. Lindsay, chairman of the State Committee, called the convention to order. Ma rion Butler, president of the State Alliance, was made temporary chair man and J. W. Denmark secretary. Later these were made permanent officers. There were seventy out of ninety-six counties represented by 357 delegates. Chairman Butler said years had been spent in plan ning and organizing, and that now was the time for action. The platform was submitted and special applause was given the planks demanding 6 per cent, inter est, taxation ot all iailways, and the endorsement of the Omaha platform. The convention by a rising vote and with a great demonstration jrtdopted the platform. The next business in hand was the selection of a candi date for Governor, and this, which began in the most harmonious way, resulted in unequalled exeiierueni. j Harry Skinner, a lawyer of G.fu ville, who served in the last Legisla ture, was placed in nomination, and there was a burst of applause as del egation after delegation endorsed h i m . Black and white delegates eulo jfized him, and one enthusiast de clared him to be L. L. Polk's sue cessor. Skinner was then nominated by acclamation. He is a man of line appearance, and was cheered as he began his speech of acceptance after Chairman Butler had announced him as the next Governor of North Carolina. Dimmer sani he was tlie pioneer in the United States in the financial reform movement, and declared that the Democratic party leaders in making support of Cleveland the test of Democracy had driven him out of that partjr. He concluded by saying: "I do not desire office, and before I accept this position I want to say that if I find that the Republican party is by i i it a conspiracy aoout to divide trie white people of North Carolina I must have the fullest liberty to take my stand for the white people and vote the Democratic ticket." At this startling announcement there was a hush for a moment and then a roar of anger. It was like a bomb-shell, and the convention went wild. Delegates shouted: "Take Skinner down ! Put up a purer and a Third party man!" Skinner was again called on to explain, and said IrVif reservation of home irovern- ment in North Carolina was para mount. A motion to withdraw his name was -declared out of order, though fifty delegates seconded it Skinner then withdrew his name. Chairman Butler tried to make pledges for his loyalty and declared there would be no Republican State ticket. A leading delegate shouted: we have been deceived and we richly deserve it." There was a de- mand for an adjournment, as dele- p.atfl swor nothing could he done with the furiously angry and sur prised convention, and the latter ad journed until 8 o'clock. Republicans are taking an undisguised part in the proceedings At the nisrht session the Ssate ticket was nominated as follows: Governor, W. P. Exum. of Wayne: Secretary of State, L. N. Durham, Gf Cleveland; Auditor, T. B. Long, a R01)ublican of Buncombe: Attorney I - A ' r i General, R. H. Lyon, of Bladen; As sociate Justice, W. A. Guthrie, Rep, Durham; Judge Superior Court 12th district, W- H. Malone, Rep., Bun combe; Elector at Large, Marion Butler end Harry Skinner; Superin- tendent Public Instruction, J. W. Woody, of Guilford; State Treasu rer, W. H. Worth, of WTake, and R. A. Cobb, of Burke, for Lieuten ant Governor. The following counties were not represented: Alexander, Allesrhanv, 11. pnmi rn Afehe' Camden, Cherokee, Chowan, iay, urmucK, jjavie, uare, ura- ham, Henderson, Jackson, Mitchell, Pender, Polk, Stanley,Stokes,Surry, Swain, Transylvania, Tyrell, Union, Watauga, Yadkin and Vancev. Loge Harris and e .n.TL publicans were present assisting in the work of the convention, with the thought uppermost in their minds to give council and encouragement to their aid society. The chairman on platform, Mr. Butler submitted the report of the committee as follows: PLATFORM AS ADOl'TKD. That we favor the strictest economy in the administration of the State government. That we favor the fullest development of our educational system in all of its depart meats. We favor the fullest encouragement to the great agricultural, mechanical ajid manufac turing industries of our State and all enter prises tending to build up our State and to develop its varied resources. "Whereas, the last general assembly of North Carolina failed to pass a bill reduc ing the legal rate of interest to six per cent, and whereas, we endorse the position of those who used their efforts and votes to pass such a measure, therefore, We demand of our general assembly at its next session 1o pass a bill reducing the legal rate of interest to six pei cent. We demand of our general assembly at iu next session the passage of a secret ballot law, with a provision in said law that will secure to voters who cannot read an oppor tunity to vote. We deplore the corrupting use of money in elections as tending to degrade manhood and to corrupt the ballot box, and we do de nounce all attempts to subvt-it the rights of the people at the ballot box, and all efforts to deprive them of a fair and honest count when tlie votes have been cait. Wheieas there are large railroad proper ties and interests in this State now escaping taxation iji whole or in pad, and whereas further, it is in the province of the general assembly of North CaioJina, making all properly in the Slate bear its equal burden of taxation, now, therefore, ,r jt. Resolved, ist That we demand of llj general assembly of North Carolina to foice, as Jar as in its power, all railroad property and interests that are now escaping taxation, in whole or in part, to pay its full and equal share of taxes for support of the government of North Carolina as t he property of farmer-., laborers and other citizens aie now taxed. Resolved, 2nd--That we demand that no furtl ler franchises or privileges in the way of amended or extended charters or otherwise be granted any corporation claiming exemp tion of taxation, until such corporation or corporations 'mala: a complete and unquali fied surrender of any claimed exemption from taxation. Whereas it is believed by many that there will be an effort to repeal the railroad com mission bill or cripple it by amendments, therefore, We demand of fhe next general assembly of North Carolina that it shall sustain the present railroad commission bill, that no amendments lessening or hampering the power of the commissioners shall be passed. and that only amendments (if any at all) such as mav or will increase the efficiency of commission and perfect the machinery and details of the same, shall be enacted into law. Resolved, That this convention endorse the platform adopted by the national peo ple's party at Omaha, July 4th, 1S92. There was applause for each plank of the platform, particularly the one for 6 per cent interest, and for the taxation of railways, and endorsing the Omaha platform. There was a particularly lively cheer as Chairman Butler read, in a stage voice, the last plank. Then the convention, by a rising vote, and amidst vociferous cheering, adopted the plat form unanimously. The American Eagle must be a ay old bird . he i bald. If you don't want to be bald, use Hall's Hair Renewer,,and you won't be. Tay it. Tltird I'arly Senatorial Convention.
