The Union Populist is a .recent .newspaper venture ut Greenville, Pitt count', with R. A. Bryan edi tor. From the first two issues it lms the ring of Republicanism. It de nounces the Democnitie party first? last and all the time. The Ulark-Kilgo controversy is still on, and the only result we see jn sight is had. Naturally Mr. Kil go and Trinity College have their friends, but it is well to remember; Mr. Clark "has friends also. One w .thing sure, Trinity is going to suffer by the unpleasantuess. - The present indications are that Jlon. Harry Skinner yll be a can didate ?for re-election to Congress. Whether he will be nominated by the Populists or Republicans re mains to be seen. A deal is sugges ( ted whereby the two parties can co operate on Skinner with a Republi can Judge and Solicitor. If this deal is made the Populists of this section are surely out; they will not submit to the trade vyhen we say jthe Populists, we mean the rank and file, not the leaders. In view of this unholy alliance it is time the Democratic party was looking but for a candidate t.o op pose the Hon. Harry and his Repub lican allies. The honest Populipts don't want to swallow any such in the First Distinct, so let the Demo crats put up a ma;i who represents the fanners and the principles they have been fighth;g for. There are lots of men in, the Democratic party who can win jthe votes of the Popu hsts, for it is principles .they want and those principles are not repre sented by the combination suggested. . The E. City Economist, Brother Crcecy's paper, nominates lion. T. J. Jaryis as the.man. Is there any better in the District ? We think not. It has been intimated that in view of the fact that Washington county is so overwhelmingly Re publican it will be useless for the Democratic party to place candi dates in the field. We admit the truth of the statement that the coun ty is largely Republican, but as a Democrat we will never consent to vacating the field, for we believe the Democratic voters should have a chance to cast their votes from President down to constable. We say let the Democratic party hold its convention and nominate a set of candidates that will stump the coun ty from one end to the oilier, and Jet these candidates be men who are without reproach and who wjlj have the patriotism to follow, the opposing candidates and tell the people what , the Republican party has done for North Carolina. Let their corrupt administration be exposed. While we are the minority party let us chow, to the people hat we represent the principles which can and will give to' 'North Carolina a clean, honest government. We in sist upon the white man's party hav ing candidates so the white people can cast their vote.i as a protest against the present state of affairs. 'J wo Millions a Yeae.

She leaves a husband, one child and hosts cf rjends to mourn her. The burial services were conducted by Rev. J. A. Shaw, pastor of Creswell Baptist church. Mr. Shaw touchingly related in his discourse, that she was the first one who made an open confession of Christ un der his preaching. She now cmietly sleeps in he old Episco pal cemetery. Every day brings us nearer the river tha,t .she has crossed, and when our latest son is sinking, may the same peace that sustained her be ours.
