Colonel Cowan.

The address of this gentleman on Satur-
day night, in reply to Hon. .. ID. DOCK
FRY. was one of the best speeches 1t has
been our good fortune to hear during the
campaign. Disposing of the leading point
made by Col. DoCKERY, that the success OF
the Democratic party would lead to war,
he directed his remarks to the coiored peo-
pie almost entirely. Outside of any poilt-
ical effect which this speech may have, Its
influence upon the colored population must
be most salutary.
Col. CowAN has devoted much OF his
time;in canvassing remote portions OF the
State, and could we'll have been excused
by his own townsmen from the discussion
on Saturday evening. But having been
called upon as he most feelingly said, he
could not refuse The people of Whining
ton had been too kind, and he was under
too many obligations for him to turn a
deaf ear to their wishes.
We are truly glad that Colonel CoWAN
consented to address our colored people,
for we have the most convincing evidences
of its good effect. The marked attention
and decorum of the people, the considera
ton and courtesy of the discussion must
do much to allay the political excitement
which bid fair to be carried to dangerous

Bishop Atkinsoo. of North Caroline.

WILMINGTON, N. u, OcG. 10, 1910.
TO Tie Editors Enquirer and Examiner:
The Enquirer and Examiner of the 10th
inst. contains the following statement:
1.-The late Bishop Hopkins. of Vermont,
deceased Ritualist, was the leader of the
party. Since his death it has been lead by
Bishop Atkinson, of North Carolina Pot
ter, of New York McClosky, of Michigan;
Whitehouse, of Illinois; Williams, of Con-
necticut Nottingham, of Maryland, and
Kip, of California"
While I think you are mistaken as to the
opinions Of several Of the Bishops above
named, knowing the views of Bishop At
kinson, and feeling at liberty to speak for
him, 7 have no hesitation in saying you
have fallen into error ir chasing him as a
Ritualist.
The extravagancies marking that small
party in the church, known as Ritualists,
have no attractions for Bishop Atkinson,
and, though he declined to unite in the
Declaration condemnatory of them, his
refusal to do so was caused by his sense Of
the inexpediency of that publication. and
not because of sympathy with the Ritual
istic movement. J. w. A.

A CARD.
To ma Democratic Friends,

To 7py Democratic Friends,
particularly those Of the County of BLdde7a:
owe you an apology for the temporizng and
cowardly course pursued by me for several weeks
past and it is due to you that it should be full
and unreserved. have, am afraid, forfeited
much of that cordial esteem and confidence which
you have, on more than one occasion, 30 gener-
ous!y bestowed upon me, and feel that have,
to very great extent, shown myself unworthy
of it.
To err, however, IL the common failing of us
all. There is no one but who, at some period of
his life, does this. TIE course which have pur-
sued in recently avowing my intention to leave
you and to support the platform of opposi-
ton, was cowardly. treacherous, unworthy of N.Y.
self, against my better judgment, conflicting with
the true interests of my people, and necessarily
repugnant to, and Inconsistent with, the princi-
pies had ever supported. IecM not do this. I
aolU not, like Judas Iscariot, 6asely bet,ay MAJ
friends; nor, like Peter, deny them when trouble
approaches!
renew my allegiance to tho Democratic cause,
and declare that my faith and confidence have
ever pointed me to it SIS the only policy which
will give to country renewal of it's beauty and
its strength.
aciU be with you, my friends->you shall not
or in woe, sinking or swimming, will stand up
on the platform of our party, and support its
candidates, cone chdtmdy!
Very sincerely yours,
JOHN A. RICHARDSON.
