OTHO WILSON AS CHAIRMAN Dick Medlia's Great Speech Nominating- "Decade Bay- "V. lus" for Delegate SIXTY DELEGATES - TO CONVENTION NAMED Convention Resoved Itself Into an Ex perience Meeting and the Delegates Become "Brethern" Mr. Otho Wilson Receives Fulsome Eulogies K Xtiiili Webster hnd been :i dele gate to the Populist convention 'f Wake county, which convened in thi; cit.V today, the English language would certainly have been enriched; Webster would have learner! n- thing or two about the use of words. Since this paper is not compiling: n diction ary an enumeration is impossible, but snfficee it to say that one delegnfe emphatically declared lhat tlie Hon. Hal. YV. Ayer "is a man well qualified and eapaple to decide any matter of indifference": another innrle the spec tators dizzy describing how lie hnd lieen rocked in the cradle of "I'opnlis tism." while Dick Medlin. of Method, in his speech nominating "Kev. De Cade Hnylus," as he affectionately called him, proved himself the great est nominating orator that North Carolina, has producer!. Another fea ture of the convention was the vari ouh love feast scenes. Mr. Cade al ways referring- to his fellow delegates n "brethren" and "brother." while jiis eulogy of Mr. S. Otho Wilson was ho fulsome that the scarlet tinge which mounted Mr. Wilson's cheek became so brilliant as to almost en danger surrounding: property. CALLED TO ORDER. The convention was called to order by Chairman S. Otho Wilson at 12: :..". and he stilted that the object of the convention was the election of dele gates 1c the State convention. Mr. .1. W. Denmark nominated fur chairman Hon. H. W. Ayer. mid he was chosen. Secretary tiny Itarnes caller! the roll of townships, and reported all reprsentcd except I trick Horn. Nensc River. St. Matthews and I'auther itranch. There were about t dele gates present, and les than 100. in cluding" delegates and spectators, were in the hall. INTEKRlT' l ED I IV A 1TXERAL. A delegate from ISarton's Creek. Mr. Alfred liarrrm. stated to the con vention: "Mr. Chairman: We haven't got. any credentials; there was a buri al in our neighborhood and we could not get n meeting." The convention heaved a sigh. EXPERIENCE MEETING. l!ev. Day lus Cade moved that the convention hear from the "brotlieren" from the various tow nships. O'he s,','" retary then called the townships. Ilarton's Creek -Ex-Constable Ceo. Allen arose ami said: "We are lure to stay." (Applause.) .!. Q. Williams answered for Cary. which lie said lie had canvassed and hue! yet. to find a l'opulist who was not opposed to "these infernal consti tutional amendments." and "the best element o citizens generally. was against them, and we are stronger than ever." Mr. Mareoin. of Cellar Fork, said, he was here us a "popular l'opulist." (Ap plause.) Hev. H. W. Xorris, of Holly Springs, said that the Populists had been quiet there lately, since they hail n't seen anything that they could approve and the others had seen much that they were ashumed of. "The Populists arc conscious that they are citizens of North Carolina, and are resolved to maintain the freedom that they have inherited from their ancestors and they see now an effort to deprive litem of their rights. Notwithstand ing some were dissatisfied last year, these men are going to net the fool no more." Charles Jackson, of House Creek, said: "The Populists are square und vearly all the time. The Democrats in my section are beginning to ojien their eyes and the laboring folks are against these amendment, but Rome say they are going to try them one more time." Hcarboro, of Little lliver. said: "We have got the illiterate Democrats down .here and they are worst tore no than ever I Baw them." Cnpt. Smith said: "We will hold our own and make topic gain in Mark's Creek." . James Fuquay, of Middle Creek." said that thin was his first appearance as a Populist, but he saw growing in fringements on the rights of the peo ple and a strike at American Jiberty, and tho people of Middle Creek will vote down the Amendment." , W. D. Hay, ol New Light, said:-"The Populists of my section are against the amendments anil just as many Democrats as Populists are opposed to them." J.. P. Goodwin, of St Mary's declar ed all the Populists there were oppos ed to the amendment and the election law, and mttny Democrats there were against it. T. M. Franks, of Swift Creek, assert- ked that he thought, the last Legisla ture made gains for Populists, ana Populists are opposed to the amend ment. "We, have lost our chairman, but. are otherwise alright." he added. "What, foolse we mortals be," was the candid assertion of S. Otho Wilson as he began to address the meeting on the subject. "Conditions in Wake Forest Township." He said the amendment is not. a party question in that section because all lire against it. He gloried in the fact that the PopiHists were kickers, that they were informed and had the manhood to stand up for their convictions. He denounced the election law. He said that he would not have tin opportuni ty to take part in this campaign, but he appenled to the delegates to vote "to protect the poor, unfortunate lit tle boys not yet twelve years old. who would be forever disfranchised." "Why is it. that blood is good np to I'.HW, but isn't goocl after that date'.'" eN cluimed the ex-commissioner, in clra inntic "style. "Why isn't inheritance good after PUIS, if good not," he re peated. Mr. S. S. lingers, of White Oak: "We tire as strong lis we were six years ago." Col. Cehurn Harris, on the comple tion of the last oration, arose and cast his broad felt hat high in the atmos phere. Ml!. AYER SPEAKS. Chairman Ayer then delivered a fir cry speech, lie declared there lurks a danger in the amendments not on the surface. Its adoption means per sonal degradation to three-fourths of the white people of North Carolina. He described his dejection after the last election. He was first hacked, then he irot mad and afterwards lie thought "'if the people have no better sense than to destroy their liberty and go to the devil, then let them go." Hut the Auditor then saw his "duty." He said that it was the duty of some party to stand against evil, oppres sion and fraud, that those who con ceived this course their duly can say: "Here is a party in which you can register your will." '"Hey say they won't disfranchise you, but didn't they tell you that they wouldn't sub mit such a thing as this niiiciulineiit to you? If they deceived you once you are excusable, but. if you arc deceived n second lime you are a serf or a fool. Every honest and in telligent man in the State will vote against it, some honest men will vote for it. but they arc nof intelligent, some intelligent men will, but are tliev honest'.'" J'oi'l LISTS TWO -1 ff all.:,ntix. .11 Me thin discussed the election law and said that the State Hoard had this week refuser I to give the minority the representation of one on each county board, which they linked, lie assert ed that the Democrats had declared they would carry the State by hell and high water, and their leader hurl ad mitted by fraud if necessary. lie told the Populists to say "We want to have the fair thing, but don't you dare to trample on our rights and perpetrate fraud." He said that the election law needed their prayerful attention, but the constitutional ainciidnic lit would take care of itself; that is no concern of the Populists for they can all read. He denounced the election law in unmeasured terms. DELEOATI'.S ELECTED. The secretin y announced that the county hail (ill delegates to the State convention ami three from at large.
