The following is the report of thi' work of the "Hhining Star" band for July: Four hundred visits, mad, J6.55, clothing and wood given th poor. The populist congressional conven tion for this district which was called to be held here today, was not held Ibut was postponed after a conference of populists and republicans. The republicans held a conference today for fonr hours at the Yarboro and, appointed a committee to meet with that of the populists and arrange for fusion. This committee will report at another conference this evening. Fusion ia agreed on. The subscribers to the capital stock of the roller mills meet at Mr. R. T Gray a office today to organize. Enough stock is subscribed to justify the beginning of work on the mill, which ia to adjoin the. wagon factory in the southern part of the city. The cause of complaint as to the vile smelling water in the southwest em part of the city, on Rocky branch, ia dne to the sewerage from the peni tentiary. Two years ago, it ia said, the state board of health called the attention of the penitentiary authori ties to it. - It was said that there was no appropriation, or rather funds in hand, to pay for connection with the city sewer. The penitentiary author ities ought now to attend to this much needed sanitary reform. ' Who Can See An Execution. Section 1244 of the eode says : "The sheriff, after having provided for the private execution of the criminal, may admit by ticker, in addition to the re ' quired guard, two physicians and ne ceaaary assistants, not more than thir ty alz nor lesa than eighteen respecta ble citizens, to witness, for the state the dne observance of the law." Mr. J. B. Kenney. Mr. John B. Kenney' s card is pub liehed today. Mr. Kenney transacts a general insurance business and can be pnnd as his advertisement states in the Commercial and Farmers bank build ingroom!7, third floor (take elevator. The Visitor recommends Mr, Kenney and his business. This is the Truth. .. The Warrenton Record says it has never known a ease where a farmer, even since the war, has been raising all supplies at home, that he has not been prosperous. All through the south and it knows many cases in this State there are men who have farmed upon this plan, and in every instance they are ont of debt and in dependent. If all the money sent ont of Warren county since the war, to pay for supplies, had been kept at home as it ought to have been, the county today would be out of debt and prosperous, ' Host improved earpet sweepers at . Hagha's. POLITICAL POINTS. Mr. Marion Butler Speaks From a Populist Standpoint. In an interview Mr. Marion Butler, one of the leading populists iu the state, said in speaking of the state con vention of hia party which niteta to morrow: "There are Ube four justices of the uprenie court nominated. We will pat p four. We will not name any popu- ista but will choose the best men, irre- pective of party. Avery ia the only udge whose term goes on. The per sona we will endorse will De taxen rum the following: D. M. Furches, W. T. Faircloth, Walter Clark, W. A. luthrie. Spier Whitaker, George II. Sinathera and V. S. Lnsk. With reference to theauperior court judges, it will no doubt be the policy of the populists to wait until the other parties nominate and choose frm their nominees men we like, or in case we a n not decide to endorse we will put np candidatea ourselves, for we iatend 11 this case, aa in the matter of the supreme court, to get the best men, irrespective of party. Tins is a strong thing for ns to do. You see we do not ut any of our own people on the icket for justices, but we will name the nominee for treasurer, and this will be W. H. Worth, W. A. Graham, r Prof. John Graham, of Littleton. The supreme court and the legisla ture we want. e happen to agree with the republicans on state issues. There will be fusion on these lineH. As yet. it. cannot be said what will be done as to congressmen. Here we nave very little in common with the repub licans, while we eim readily come to gether on the state ticket. We will not go into an arrangement merely to to divide the offices, but we wish to idvance a principle. As to the negro vote, the country darkies will vota al most solidly for the coalition ticket. The town darkies will divide, to say the least." 'maj. grant's views. Maj H. L. Grant, of Goldsboro, now figures as ahead of the republican party. He issued, over chairman Eaves' head, the call for the meeting of the republican state committee; When told he was being talked of is the new chairman of the state com- nittee, to succeed John B. Eaves, Maj. Jrant said he could not accept the place if it were tendered. He talked very freely, saying that of the sixteen members of the state cammittee all save Brady and Millikin had said they would attend this meeting or favored fusion with the populists if effected on a proper basis. He added that he had letters from 75 republicans in the state and that only five opposed fusion. Here are some things which he said: "If smooth fusion, or rather co-op eration, of the populists and republi cans is affected, there are enough white republicans and populists to beat the democrats, leaving the negro vote out of the question; that is, if the votes are properly counted. The negro vote is hard to control. It was so two years ago. In counties where the populists are in large numbers and put up their own people, the negro voters are distrustful. Two years ago the white republicans from the extreme west were violently opposed to fusion, and they defeated it at the conven tion. The statement was nude that chairman Eaves at that time sold out the party, but that does not bear the marks of probability. His opposition to the meeting of his committee now, to confer with the populist leaders as to what is to be done, has strengthened any belief there may have been that he sold out in 1892. Now, the strength of the fusionists among the republi cans is in the extreme east and west, In the center the sentiment appears to be against it. The fusion will have to be arranged very carefully and through committees. Co-operation is a better name for it, as the plan is to let neither party lose its individuality. "Republicans cannot really speak for the populists, though, some of them are trying to assume the role of their managers and advisers. As to the populist congressional convention to be held here tomorrow, it has been said that W. F. Stroud, of Chatham, would be the nominee. It is more than probable that the convention will make no nomination, bat will wait awhile, say nntil after the republican convention. Two j ears ago the re publicans gave way to Stroud in t U in matter, and turn about ia only fair play. "There is no doubt that the negro as prefer the straight republican ticket, and there is also no doubt that many of them will vote against the co-opera tion or fusion ticket, but enough of them will vote for it to make up for the 'leakage.' The great point ia the legislature. As to United States senators, Marion Butler and Jeter C. Pritchard naturally fit into these positions, without much being said about them." The Weather Report. For North Carolina: Probably show era this evening, fair Wednesday.- Lo cal forecast: Wednesday occasional showers. Local data for 24 hours end ing 8 a.m. today: Maximum temper atnre 91; Minimum temperature 69; rainfall 0.4.

The trustees of Trinity college met today at Durham to elect a president of that institution, Their ehoice was Prof. Kilgo, of Wafford college. It was intimated in the Visitor some days ago that a South Carolinian would be chosen. Mrs. Betsey Barbee, a woman who has defied constables, landlords and people in general near the Bethel camp ground in Cabarrus county, has been heard from again. A constable, the Charlotte Observer says, went to the house she is occupying in defiance of law and men, and led her out of the house and pitched her furniture and goods out into the yard. She made things very lively for him while he was engaged in the job. China Stocking up with Provis - ions. San Francisco, Cal., July 30.

He managed the duties of his position always with seal, ability and good judgment. Tariff Agreement Not in Sight. A special to the Charlotte Observer from Washington says: The air is full of talk about disagreement and the fact is the conferees seem further apart than ever. The only "psoposi Hon" I have heard of is a rumored one from the sugar trust in a vague form. As it came to me, it is said the trust seeks a better arrangement for itself than the 45 per cent, generally discussed. It therefore proposes to fix the ad valorem a little above 40 per cent., and then reduce the differential specific duty below one-eighth of a cent per pound a sly proposition which will hardly be accepted. The trouble is caused chieflly by the Springer-Holman movement for a cau cus to take the matter out of the con ferees' hands. It has Strengthened the Senate's position, worried the president, insulted the house confer ees, and nobody done any good. Some of the signers assure me they did noc have any such motive as is attributed to the prime movers. - y Sf-ECIAL NOTICES.
