Mr. McCarthy moved to ay upon the table, whereupon Person Jumped to his feet and demanded the support of all "true Republicans." In his remarks he said, ne "was surprised that the Republicans should allow the Democrats; to put them in a hole.' The bill was tabled. The resolution of Mr. Scales, making one-third a quorum of committee, ta bled. Bill to make another election precinct m the county of Edgecombe. Mr Per son, the introducer of the bill, made another speech, airing bis political views. He spoke of Democratic fraud. etc, and demanded another polling place in his county.

Introduced a resolution directing the doorkeeper to keep the Senate clock by standard time. Adopted. The President, at 12 o'clock, an nounced that time had arrived for the election of a United States Senator. Mr. Smathers nominated Jeter C. Pritchard. He urged the Populists to support him, as he could be of much more benefit to them than a Populist. He made quite a long speech and dur ing it called the Populists "a party of broken promises. After a sketch of the life of Pritchard. he ended by an other appeal to the Populists to sup port him. Mr. Person, colored, seconded the nomination of Mr. Pritchard in behalf, he said of 120,000 colored voters. He said he had wanted to nominate a colored man. but he knew the time was not ripe yet when he could be elected, but the time would come Mr. Maxwell nominated Hon. Cyrus Thompson. He said that the Populists jn that side of the Senate had a nomi nation to make. They had been re proached but had not been swerved rom their principles. There had been to understanding with the Republicans n regard to the election of a United States Senator. He wanted it under stood that he was a middle-of-the-road Populist. Cy. Thompson was a true son it the Old North State a man who will throw himself into the breach; a true silver man: equal In honesty, loyalty And principle to any son of North Carolina. Mr. Abell nominated, in behalf of the Democrats. Hon. Rufus A. Doughton. He said: "Mr. President: In behalf of he Democratic Senators, I desire to lace-in nomination ex-Lieutenant Gov rnor Doughton. His purity of life and us services are well worthy of emula- .ion. His public life and political prin- iples command the esteem and confi- lence of his friends and challenge the admiration of those who differ with him. He is in favor of the free and un- imited coinage of sliver at 16 to 1, be cause it is right, hwmigft, it is lust rhe great crime of 1873 he" "Wv,V-ndeavor o have stricken from the statute books. ft should be blotted out. If elected, he .vlll give real financial relief to the peo pieeven if he has to put it on as a ider to the revenue bill. As a tree is ,udged by its fruits, so you should judge the man. If you elect him you will not be compelled to ' force a promise. He vould give his word, and God knows he vould keep it. He is in favor of an in- ome tax. The money-lenders should jay their part of the taxes. He is an mtiring enemy and ceaseless foe of all .rusts and combinations. I have re spect for the political convictions of Senators, but am proud that I am a Democrat of the great and good gov- rnment of my party. I am glad thai Ooughton Is a Democrat. He nevei oetrayed his convictions or principles. He is a man of convictions and dares to carry them out." Mr. Wakefield seconded the nomina- :ion of Mr. Pritchard. Mr. Utley seconded the nomination of Dr. Thompson. He made an ad mirable speech for his man and round ly abused Pritchard as the "agent of monopolies. Mr. Parker of Alamance seconded the nominatio?C-.of Mr. Doughton. Mr. As.urn seconded the nomination of Mr.-' jltchard. Mr Bstice seconded the nomination f V Doughton. Mr. Anthony seconded Mr. Dough ton's nomination. Mr. Alwatet seconded the nomination of Dr. Thompson. He said that tbe Populists were the ones who breathed life into the Republican party and that It came -with a bad grace for tbe Re publicans to ask the Populists to violate their most sacred principles tbe finan cial question. Before he would vote for Pritchard he would go down in defeat. He said "he desired to plainly tell the Republicans that if they persisted in supporting Pritchard there would be no more co-operation." Mr. Grant seconded Pritchard s nom ination and laid much stress .on the "contract of two years ago" wtth the Populists. Mr. Anderson also seconded Mr. Prltchard's nomination.

"- . . .. ... After the report of the tellers was an nounced tbe Senate adjourned till to morrow at 11 o'clock.-; and the - Senate will then meet tn- tner BDase of Repre sentatives to compere and. count the vote for Senator. ......: " -At 11 o'clock' the Hbuse was opened with prayer by Rev. Dr. B. a. Whit- : The day 'was, with the exeoeptrofk nl Inauguration dsy. "tM most- interest ing -of the session thus far, anl the eaileries and lobbies were, nsued ' , On Mc Sutton's motion the enax JjstgteujoB' to go into t eiecaon x Senator at fceon was concurred in. The speaker appointed as tellers Messrs. Houser, Cook and Nelson. Bills were .introduced as follows: Mr. Sutton To establish two trill Justice's courts in Wilmington town ship; to regulate the registration of grants of lands by the State.

Mr. McKenzie To exempt undertak ers who are funeral directors from jury duty. Mr. Harris, of Hyde To protect deer In Hyde.

Mr. Pinrdx To allow ex-Sheriff Kel- iey, or xaaiun, to coiieet arrears oi taxes. Mr. Young, of Wake To allow tLe trustees of the institution for deaf- mutes and; blind to emplcy two physi cians. Bill to allow Robeson county to levy a special tax passed third reading. A resolution was adopted allowing the committees on judiciary and cor porations to act without a majority be ing present. A bill to put a man named Nail, or Buncombe; on the pensicn lists caused some debate. Mr. Lusk. said he was blind and as poor as Job's turkey, "which hard to lean against the fence to gobble." Mr. Harris, of Hyde, said he did not like this pension legislation; that it constituted three-fcurths of the business of Congress, wnicn was, ne declared, ft disgrace to the nation. Mr. Cunningham earnestly hoped the bill would pass unanimously. Mr. Alexan der, of Tvrell. said he regretted to see a disposition In the House to decline to aid the Confederate soldiers wno nau answered their State's call. He re proached the House for refusing aid to keep the veterans out of the county homes. He said the people favored tne pensioning of any deserving union scldier. Mr. Sutton opposed providing for one man, and said it should be merged in a general blil, as it was the purpose of this Legislature to provide for all. No action was taken on tne dui, as noon arrived and the Speaker announc ed the special order, ?.ne election oi Senator. Mr Rrnwn. of Jones, said ne gave notice that he desired to explain his vote. . .. At 12-05 Mr. Lusk said the mucn-ois- cussed and long-expected time for the Aiorttnn of a Senator had arrived; thai could the people of the State have heard the Speakers announcement ana couia the House have heard the outcry for North Carolina's favorite son, the elec tion of Jeter C. Pritchard wouia oe made by acclamatien. He then pre sented Jeter C. Pritchard as his own successor. (Applause) He gave a sketch of Pritchard's life ana public services, saying his father was a Con federate soldier wno josi nis ine want n service; that he was reared in pov erty and without the advantages oi early education; thai his life, his ca reer, really began in North Carolina and from a printing office he has risen to he one of the foremost men in tnt country. Mr. Lusk sketched nis career as printer, farmer, lawyer ana politi cian. He said It was a time-nonorea custom to elect one senator rrom- tn east and one from the west. "Now," said he, "you have an honored senatoi from the east, a man worthy or tne po sition he occupies. I never have re gretted the vote I cast for Marion But ler and hope 1 never win. now won i you give us a Senator from the west.' Hp went on to say that In the past twe vMrs dissensions had arisen In the Poouilst party, but !ne declared loudly that fusion of Republicans and Popu lists must not be broken up. He de clared Pritchard was for the free coin age of silver Just as he was two years ago; that he had nut changed a par tinlp. He said Pritchard's services in the Senate were the thing needed tc launch the prosperity for which the nponle were clamoring. There was hpartv applause as Mr. Lusk finished Mr. Spencer Blacktourn seconded the nomination of Mr. Pritchard in a se. speech, as the "boy orator of the Re- nnhlican partv." and this effort w the greatest of his life. He declarec Pritchard to be the choice of the 'masses of humanity" in North Caro lina. Mr. Schulken said he did not think an eloquent speech a necessity on tnis occasion, and that he rose to place it nomination a native-born child ol North Carolina, and rejoiced that It was not necessary to g to another State to get a Senator. He then nominated Cvrus Thompson, saying he was an honest and a talented man. There was strange to say, no applause, save one "supposed hand-clap" .at tbe mention of Thompson's name. Mr. Schalken said the free and independent coinage of silver had been advocated on every stump and. assurances given that no man should be voted for save one faithful to this cause; and that Cy. Thompson had the zeal of Elijah anc the faith of Abraham In this cause. He declared that the Populists could not afford to vote for a man unfavorable to the cause they had been preaching He said the Populist party had never committed forcible trespass upon Re publican sacred precincts and he de clared tbat the Republicans had nc right to go over on the Populist side and take away the matters rights with out their consent. He asked the Re publicans to keep their hands off in this matter. He called on the populist bolters to do their fluty. He called on the Democrats to stand by the pledges they had made to vote for any sincere friend of silver the-Populists named Mr. Dancy of Edgecombe, colored, seconded the nomination of Mr; Pritch ard and got much colored applause. He said he believed in tbe Populists and Republicans standing together and' if the Populists had been given most oi the offices. Mr. Harris of Halifax, colored, in seconding1 Pritchard's nomination. termed him the greatest star in the galaxy of the great man of North Car olina. He expressed the hope that the Populists and Democrats would sup port Pritchard. Harris earned ap plause. Mr. Hanser seconded Dr. Thompson's nomination, saying no man stood ahead of him in the "great reform movement." Mr. Ferrell of Wake seconded the nomination of Thompson. . Mr. Parker of Perquimans said he rose on behalf of the Populists of east era North Carolina to second the nomi nation of Jeter C Pritchard (at these words there was a tremendous burst of applause, which came from floor, lob bies and gallery, and which lasted sev era! seconds). Parker said he wished to violate tbe conscience of no man that Pritchard had given a guarantee unpledged that he would continue to be a true friend of free silver, and that he .felt he was honoring himself - In sec onding the nomination of Prttcbara. Mr. Dixon of Cleveland said he had hoped the friends of free coinage would have united on some man. He declared the Democrats had, made; an the ad vances they could possibly make to bring-tfbont Oris result; &at they -bad opposed to co-operate to bring . about tnte result; hsd reached out teir hands but nothing had tout ned them. The situation over the 145,000 Democrats in North Carolina demand that the Dem ocrats present a man. He expressed a belief thata neat majority of this Leg islature is for the free ana nmimued Aoofnage of silver and gold at the ratio of IS to l:tmrtf the men who coin free heotaa-ger here ; direct- from- tfa ... people had been left bo thernselves -the result would . have been different , He then nomlnatedJEtitf3a A. Xkmgaton of An rbaay. ywhawa name, is jrownr aad. known all over North Carolina; a Chris-itTIP Uan. a patriot, a novel citizen, a gen-1 tleman. He declared; the Senator now elected mbzht come from the west, from those grand nominations on which runs into God Almight himself sits and talks to . his people. In conclusion he said tbat four years hence W. J. Bryan would be the President. (At this there was hearty applause from- the Demo crats; not a nurmur from the Popu lists.) Mr. Cathey of Swain, a young mem ber, seconded in a neat way the nomi nation of Thompson, and gracefully eulogized Vance. At 1:30 there were calls of vote and the call of tbe roll call began. Dockery and Brown of Jones each gave notice that they desired to explain his vote. Mr. Brown explained his vote, say ing be gave.lt because he believed' the Populists would faith tbe Republicans in this election. When Mr. B rower voted for Pritch ard several hisses were heard, Mr. Dockery said that in the Repub lican caucus he had stated that under certain conditions and circumstances he could not cast his vote as the tenor of the resolutions instructed, and so asked to be excused from voting. He was excused. As a Republican be was born to-day and by no action of his shoud any other man than a Repub He had I lican be sent to tne senate been brought up in that faith. But chere were stronger ties than party. ircumstances had to-uay arisen which would cause him not to vote for the caucus nominee and under these im pulses he asked the unanimous consent of the House to be excused. He was excused. The tellers at 2 o'clock announced the vote and tbe House adjourned until 11 o'clock to-morrow. All there was of interest in this town to-day occurred in the Senate and House and the proceedings tell the story. How great was the truth of your cor respondent's remark that while the odds were In Pritchard's favor they were too close to be Comfortable, and that it did not appear his majority was more than two! It was a close shave. It Is said he will get three more votes to-morrow. One man offered to bet he would get ten more. There was a big : fake last night. started by Republicans, that Julian S. Carr bad been endorsed by the Demo crats for Senator. This correspondent told the facts; that Doughton was the favorite. At this morning's caucus he was agreed on as the standard-bearer. And a noble, true man he is. Oliver H. Dockery was in the House to-day and saw the balloting and heard the speeches. Senator Pritchard last night, as re quested by the bolting Populists, gave them a letter pledging nimseu tor siij ver. McCaskey has the letter. ? There may be some startling changes in the senatorial vote to-morrow. It is said that one Populist who is for Thompson left Raleigh this afternoon. Capt. A. S. Peace, a member oi tne Populist State committee, is to-night reported to be dying at Rex Hospital here. He was this afternoon taken there from his boarding house. Earnhardt and Umstead are also very sick. It is said that Purgason will be here to-morrow. The bolting Populists caucused at Skinner's room to-nlEht. E. E. Bryan, one of them, said they resolved to cast the same vote to-morrow as to-day He also says D. Reid Parker will vote for Pritchard to-morrow and that other Populists of the majority w ill then vote I for Pritchard. I Senator Pritchard has received con- I crntnintnrv tpleerams from Senators I Thurston, froctor, sactsriae, viarit, i Hiwlev. Frve. Perkins, several Repre- I sentatlves, and from Wilbur Wakeman, I secretary of the American rroiective i League. Pritchard says he is very much gratified at to-day's vote. He has a letter from D. Reid Parker. Populist. In w hich the latter says: "I pledge you mv vote to-morrow." Carter, of jNash another Populist, is also pledged to Pritchard, and two others of the fopu list maiorltv promise to support him Jones, of Alleghany. Democrat, will, if necessary, vote for him. He is one of the reserved forces. Pritchard's friends sav Pritchard expects 8 to 10 majority He also expects uockery ana loi iu vote for htm. It Is said by Republican? to-night that Butler this evening sent a mmsflsp to the Populist bolters' caucus suggesting that all populists meet ana put up a compromise man ior nenamr It Is further stated that the bolters re Dlied that they would have a caucus to morrow evening and would then con sider his proposition.
