JUDGE GILMER.
Will Accept the Noinliiatlon--llrover
Gets a Black Eye.
The Greensboro Patriot oths week
has two items of interesting news
which we give below :
Judge Jno. A. Gilmer, in response
to a question asked him by a reporter
of the Patriot yesterday said : "Jf
the Democratic convention should
nominate me as the candidate of the
Democratic party for Congress in this
District I should esteem it a duty that
I ovved my party, as well as a pleas
ure, to accept and do everything that
in me lies that is honorable to carry
the District and redeem it to Demo
cracy." We learn that Hon. John M. Brow
er, M. C, made application for mem
bership in the Farmers' Alliance at
Mt. Airy recently, but that he was un
ceremoniously rejected black-balled.
The reasons given nim, we are inform
ed, for his rejection, were good, but,
being purely of a personal character,
we do not care to repeat them. We
learn that Mr Brower, to use the lan
guage of our informant, "is very blue
over the matter.'.' 'Phis seems to con
:radict the yarn that the Alliance
would support Brower for Congress.
Cleveland Says It's a Lite.
In an interview wih a World re
porter President Cleveland said of the
Sun's story that he was under medical
treatment for corpulency: "The
whole story is a lie."
Mr. Cleveland also said: "I do not
care how much I am criticised for my
jublic acts. 1 hat is perfectly legiti
mate. There is a line, however, it
-.eems to me, where abuse. should stop.
The man who invades the privacy of a
amiiyana inauiges in coarse a tacKS
on private citizens, places himsell on
.on thp nfa hlflrL-fnuirH"
Regarding the frequent personal at-
racks upon himself in . the Sun, Mr.
Cleveland said that he did not see
them, but every time one appeared, a
dozen crank's more or less would write
to him about it. "Whenever I receive
these cranks letters, continued Mr.
Cleveland, I know .that the senile
old liar and thief Dana has been at it
again."
Last Year's Tobacco Crop.
A. Walker in Durham Globe.
It is now estimated by those who
have canvassed the surrounding coun
ties, Durham, Chatham, Granville,
Wake, Person, Orange, Caswell and
Alamance, at least 80 per cent of the
crop has been sold, and this goes to
prove that our prediction, made some
months since, was correct. Westated
that there would not be more than
6; ner cent of an average crou sold as
the production of the-jSo. crop, and
we feel well assured that the crop will
not exceed that amount.
