The Closing Procwdlripn of Their Convention. It was after C o'clock yesterday af- eruoon before the populist state con vention ended its work. The follow ing was the report of the committee embodying the nomination for justi ces: "Whereas, On account of the weak est of human nature even the best nd purest men when elevated to ollice y one political party are liable to be iased, often even unconsciously, n favor of said party, and "Whereas, The people's party be eves that the best interests of the state can be served by lifting the ju dicial ermine above the contaminating nlliiences of partisan politics, there- ire "Resolved, That it shall always be cardinal priuciple of our party law select and cast our votes for the broadest, purest and best qualified for the high and important office of judg ship, irrespective of party affiliations. "In conformity with the above res olutiou we declare our intention to cast our ballots for Hon. W. T. Fair cloth for chief justice of the supreme court, Hon. Walter Clark for associ ate justice to succeed himself, Hon. D. Furches for associate justice to succeed justice MaeRae, Hon. H. G. Connor for associate ji itice to succeed ustice Burwell. "Having full confidence in the above gentlemen, and believing that if they are elected to the supreme court bench they will iuterpret the law fairly and impartially between ill persons, interests and political parties, we ask all good citizens, irre- pective of party, or cast their v'es for them whether either f Vi re nominated for said position lie respective political parties or not. "We believe that it is due ourselves tnd the gentlemen named to say that this action is taken without their knowledge or consent, with no desire r further purpose on our part than to secure the best qualities of mind md heart for the highest judicial tribunal of our State." The four gentkmen named in the resolution were nominated by acclima tion. ' '"- The next business was the nomina- ion for state treasurer. This was fiven W. H. Worth by acclamation. The following resolution was adop ted unanimously : " Whereas, The people's party re grets the recent death of senator Zeb- ulon B. Vance, in which the state lost one of her truest sons, and inasmuch as our state has never recognized, in a fitting manner, the distinguished ability and patriotic services of any of her sons, and with a view to making a beginning, therefore "Reholvbd, Thatjvej favor and re quest our people to co-operate with the other friends of the late senator Vance to raise a sufficient ' fund to build a suitable monument to his memory." Judge Clark Interviewed. Judge Walter Clark says that the action of the people's party in endors ing him for the position of associate justice was neither sought nor in any way encouraged by him, and that while he greatly appreciates the desirei of any body of his fellow citizens for his election to this position, it must be distinctly understood that he is a dem ocracy and is not and has not been a candidate for the nomination or en dorsement of any party except that of the democratic party; that if nomi nated by the democratic party at its convention on August 8th, he will be a candidate for re-election; oth erwise he would not be a candidate.

THE REPUBLICANS !-tue in Alirr s t. tl-ir prty in thh SU!e. Messrs. o. II. D.M-kery, V. S. Lunk, James H. Young, C. M. Bernard and H. li. F.art, composing a committer rep resenting the conference of republi cans which has been in session here this week, issue an add less in which they sy: "After an interchange of views with leading populists a con ference was had with the delegates to the people's party state convention then assembled in this city. That coufereuce developed the fact that the populists were i-.ady and willing to co-operate with the republicans in every honorable way, and on terms of honor and fainecs, in order to cement into one solid i osition to democracy the opposing elements against that party. , "Not intending and not having the authority to bind the republican party, or any one save themselves as individuals, nothing was done by those present to forestall the action of the republican state convention in any way. "Having ascertained that co-operation can be had with the populists so as to present but one candidate for each ollice to be voted for against the democratic nominees, we urge the re publicans in their various counties and districts not to make nominations for any office.whatever until after the action of the republican state conven tion shall have been had on the 30; h of this month. "Being satisfied that the state can be easily wrested from the democrats by the union, of the forces of the re publican and people's parties, we earnestly urge the republicans of the various counties who are in favor of the co-operation of the two parties for this purpose, to use every effort to have their several county conventions elect delegates to the state convention what firmly favor this line of policy for this campaign." (The address quotes the. resolution regarding justices adopted by the populists yesterday, and then says): "This resolution is in conformity to republican precedent as it exists in this state by the nomination of judge Pearson, Reade and Mitchell in 1868, who in turn were nominated . by the democratic party. The same prece dent exists in the republican party of other states notably in New York the intention being always to remove the judges from the contamination of partisan politics. Therefore, for this reason, we urge the republicans of the various counties to 'elect delegates to the republican state convention who will vote to adopt this reselution. "The paramount object is to secure the enactment of an election law that will secure to the white and colored voters equally and to the same extent a free registration, com pel a fair vote, and force a count of the votes as cast." The Weather Report. For 'North Carolina: Fair, except showers on the coast tonight. Local forecast: Showers Friday afternoon; cooler. A moderate cool spell will prevail during next few day X Lo cal data for 24 hours ending 8 a.m. to day: Maximum temperature 91; Min imum temperature 71; rainfall 0.00. The center of low pressure is ap parently over the northern lake re gion, but the pressure is compara tively low everywhere east of the Mis sissippi except in the extreme south.
