Oar Claim Conceded. ' ; y,
Fayetteville has well established .her
claim to the honor of forming the first
Bryan club in the Union. The thousand
and odd other clubs that have been loudly
taking the honor to themselves will please
halt and fall into line. The Raleigh News
and Observer says:
And now comes Fayetteville claiming
the honor of having organized the first
Bryan club in America. As soon as his
name was flashed over the wires, says the
Observer, a number of young men form
ed a club right where they stood at the
time they heard the news. Of course this
naturally takes the cake, unless some club
can prove that it organized while the news
was on the way from Chicago. There
might have beeu a club somewhere that
saw the message on the way to- Fayetteville.

Cumberland Monument Association.
The first anniversary of the Cumberland
Monument Association will be fittingly
observed in the Armory of the F. I. X. I.,
at 8:30 o'clock on Thursday evening, 19th
inst.
The programme of the proceedings will
be inaugurated by the reading of the
minutes of the last regular monthly meet
ing, followed by the Secretary's annual
report a summaiized record of the Asso
ciation's year of existence and work, and
the report of the Treasurer a statement
of the financial condition of the organiza
tion. This business feature will be fol
lowed by talks of five or six minutes
each from prominent citizens invited to
address the audience the whole enlivened
by selections of vocal music.
A full attendance of the members of the
Association is urgent requested; and
the public whose sympathy and co-operation
the Association hopes it has gained
are cordially invited. No charge for ad-
-Hmssion.
Alliance Lecture.
Rev. P. H. Massey, of Durham, State
Lecturer of the Farmers' Alliance, ad
dressed a number of farmers in the court
room of the new Court House this morn
ing. Mr. Massey made a fine address, the
principle portion of which was taken up
with a discussion of the silver question.
He said that the prosperity of the farmer,
and therefore of the country, depended
upon the Free Coinage of Silver. "Free
coinage of silver" he said, "meant finan
cial freedom, and on the other hand,
gold monometallism meant financial and
political serfdom." He said the people
had the power -and should use it in No
vember. Mr. Massey concluded by appealing to
his hearers not to divide, the silver forces,
but to give the silver candidate united
support. He mentioned no name, for he
said the Alliance could have no connection
with any political organization, but his
hearers all knew that he was alluding to
William J. Bryan, the silver candidate.
Take Heed Gentlemen.
All the Populist leaders of the county
were in the city this morning to hear the
lecture of Alliance Lecturer Massey. Be
fore the hour set for the address many
conferences were held by the different
leaders, in some of which several Repub
lican leaders participated. An Observer
reporter asked several of the most promi
nent what action they were going to take
in regard to the Chicago platform and
candidates but elicited no other answer
than "wait until after the St. Louis Con
vention." We are inclined to think that the local
leaders, urged on by the Republicans,
favor a nomination by that convention.
We warn you gentlemen, if you at
tempt to promote a division of the silver
forces, that you will be repudiated by the
great mass of honest farmers though they
be Populists, and that it will disrupt your
party as surely as the sun will shine to
morrow. Peffer, Jones, Spence, Teller,
Dubois and all the great Populist leaders
have endorsed Bryan and silver.
Among the number interviewed, (or
rather not interviewed,) was ex-Chairman
Jno. McDuffie. John, of course, talked
freely and candidly, and of course, the re
reporter came away not knowing where
John "was at."
