At the meeting of the Republican Executive Committee held in this city delegates were appointed to the State, Congressional and Judicial Conventions to be held at the courthouse on July a, The following resolutions -were adop ted: - Whereas, it is evident that the) un paralleled prosperity of our country under a Republican administration, has demonstrated to a large majority of thoughtful men the absurdity of voting for a weak and meaningless democracy, therefore, be it resolved, that this com mittee, through its chain-- extends to all qualified voters of xountrya most cordial invitation to join with us in our efforts to throw off the yoke of a corrupt party machine, ; that since 1893 has been used to promote the per sonal ambition and fill the pockets of a few, and has openly and flagrantly im posed upon the people the most vicious abuses of its temporary power. To all qualified voters who can wisely see that the incomparable administration of Theodore Roosevelt ; has ' resulted in a "square deal to all," which is the most perfect assurance of continued tran quility in the" nation. To all qualified voters who do not desire to return to the dark days of Clevelandism and hope never to experience the-horrors of an archy and poverty under flatmoney and Bryanism. To all qualified voters who wish to aUy themselves with a par! ty of principle and power, where all men are equal and the party lash un known, to all qualified voters who do not believe that ; the. country's money should be squandered in suits at law or otherwise to advance the political aspi rations of any of its servants,' to all those who extend a hand of welcome. Resolved, that we, the Republican Executive Committee, of Craven eoun ty, do endorse and (recommend most earnestly the re-appointment of, Sey mour W.

At the quarterly -meeting ol the Chamber of Comrrre-e 1 ut night the reports made by th various .committees were all en couraging and showed that the organi zation is doingjnore and better work as its age increases. The report of the committee through President Battle on increased railroad facilities was to the effect that while the committee had nothing that It deemed prudent to di- ulge, yet the situation was such he felt that he could saUaf actory say that be fore the end of he year the announce ment .would be definitely made that a new line of railroad would enter Greens- bbro, givmg it additional and better facilities than those offered by the Southern Railway, ; Active steps were taken to complete the raising of one thousand dollars for the building, fund of the Lutheran Col lege, about half the amount being now raised.

There was a joint meeting of the County Commissioners and the High way-Commission last night to hear re ports from the committee appointed to investigate conditions at die county convict camp. In view of criticisms made from certain quarters since the shooting to death of McMillan and negro, who tried to escape, a full inves tigation 01 una .occurrence ana otner conections Tat the camp was instituted by the Highway Commission.. All the evidence was in the shape of deposi tions from guards, convicts, overseers and the superintendent.,. Many of the convicts said they bad no fault to find of their treatrnent The food was good and plentiful and there was no cruelty. A few stated that they had a hard time and were worked too hard. J. Harper Johnson, a member of the Highway Commission, who lives near the ; camp and has had opportunity to observe, has been examined and his deposition taken. . It was favorable to the management of the camp. So was that of John Holton, a farmer living near the camp. A deposition from Major Mclver, superintendent charge of the camp, was to the effect that he had had experience with a great many camps and the one in charge of the Highway Commission was as good as any of them.' Th. whole ' agitation, of the convict matter-grew out of the alleged dying statement of ' McMillan, that eonvicts rwere treated terribly at Um eamp, The Industrial News which has been trying to make capital -but of . this,; itself, shows that McMillan was not worthy of belief , 'even when dying. In its Issue this mornlcg it shows the result of first class news enterprise, by the published fact that McMillan was not: Brent' A. Morey as he'declared With his expiring breath, but that his right name was Brent A.
