The Washington correspondent of the Observer writes: Congressman Blackburn left tonight for Greensboro and it is likely that he will remain in the State ur.til after the meeting of the Republican State exec utive committee next Saturday.

It will be Blackburn on the one side and Butler on the other, for it seems that the program of the conven tion is being looked after by the former Populist Senator, in so for as sucbH program can be arranged by the organ ization people.

He went to Mr Sherman and asked him to go down for the state conven tion and make a speech. Mr. Butler is said to have told Mr. Sherman how "they" intended to re elect Mr Black burn. To Mr. Sherman, who had previously been informed how Mr. Blackburn had been elected before, not because of but despite the efforts of the Butler crowd, the situation did not appear the least opaque. In fact, the New York congressman, at once seeing how the land lay, declined, say ing it was his purpose to attend the Tar Heel Club banquet 'and make a speech on that occasion.
