The lady, who waa a passenger from Tar- oro to this city,, and from here to i point in Virginia, stood on the rea tlatform of the train to Calk to some 'rlends until the minute of leaving, farboro. As she attempted to go In be car she found she was kept out y a thirty-eight Inch "Merry Wldo fat" which she was wearing.

Coming on a ralnj lay, forcing the occupation of a court oom, and at noon day, there was a landlcap, in way of attendance.though he : bIko of hia audience wag very omplimentary. : . Mr. KKVhin arrived by the morning rain om Goldsboro, was met at the itation by a committee of local Demo crats, and escorted to Hotel Gaston, where, he met . a number of friends, going from there to the. court house at noon. . In the absence of chairman Lane, Mr S M Brinson preslded.and In his us ual happy way led 4'ue way, speaking of the distinguished visitor, as the 'nexr governor, "it being an honor and pleas- iie to have blin with us." Mr. R. f. Green was introduced by Mr. Brin- :on, and in a lew words Mr. ureeu presented Mr. Kltchln, who was ap plauded as he came forward to speak. In brief Mr. Kltchln said: The last time he came to Craven County thert vas a divided democracy. Now it was mited. He came, with no new princt iles to preach. -The old time demo .racy was good enough. Take the tromlses of the Democrats and Repuu- icans for the State government. Take he Democratic administration of state affairs. Go back to the Russell admin. stratlon.- Do Republicans promise to ;lve such a government if elected': It was a singular fact, but men in ;ood humor were usually democrats make a democrat mad- and he went o the Republicans. But make a Re publican mad and he sticks closer to ills party. Prohibition' was not a polf- Ical lsBue, for there were wet ano Iry. Democrats as there were Repub licans.

In the Republican, a few men control, in the nation, state ano county Taft belonged to the "loo up" Republican crowd, those wbos only aim waa to look up office.
