The gentleman who wrote the article did not seem to be very well informed either as to Mif. Stedman or the counties in hi district. The fact is rhnr Ua, Stedman is in the race and there to stay. How the writcof that article could conceive that Chatham county, which is not in this dis trict, was against Major Stedman is interesting Tha fnnt. ; ut iig' '"''I'' r - vv - vuu) ajorStedmvi V"1!''4" vvuu i y auu III IWU .

This paper knows that Mr. Bry ant, who so beautifully presented Major Stedman to the latter of these conventions, arid who has long been his .friend, could not nave ueen tne inspirator of this article, for he no: only knows that Major Stedman is no quitter, bur that few men nave accom plished more in Congress in the short time he has been there man Major Stedman. We have known Major Sted man 3DOUI sixteen years and we never have seen him in better mental or physical health and vi gor than he is today. Of course, we do' not know all about politics but what little we know and from what information we have, we believe thai Major Stedman is stronger in this 'district than he i . nas ever Deen, and in a primary will carry it bj a tremendous ma jority, It is7 a pity that any paper should strike at Major Stedman, or mis represent him. We would certainly like to know what gen tlemen have informed the Durham Sun tkat Major Stedman would withdraw from the race. This Confederate soldier, who has sriven as much of his-rime. mnn. ey and life to the Democrats par ty as any man in the State, is en titled to a square deal, and though he is amply able to take care of hirrself, he has thousands of stro:gmen all ever the district willing to undertake to see that he gets it, and no misrepresentations can prevent it. major oieaman is a member or one or; me sreac comrmttApR nf tha Houserone which it usually takes ten or; twelve years of service to reach.! the committpe tr Fhrion affairs:.
