After considerable discussions and
some fun for the audience, which

old crowd, not a Liberal in the
house to participate in the meeting,
the following resolutions were read
and adopted
The Republicans OF Orange Coun.
Ety, in Convention assembled, have

THE action Of the State Republican

from the Raleigh News Observer

From the Raleigh News Observer.
The position of men who belong
TO the old panel Republicans is in
,eres,ing At this date. Hon. D. A.
jenkins can't stomach the Liberals.
Hon. w. A. Smith has no use for
Democratic deserters. Col. keogh,
the former chsirmsn of the party
and Secretary of the National Exec,
u,ive Committee, favors the straight
out Republicans. These prominent
Republican leaders of former times
have no use tor those who speak Of
"the late Republican party" And
We find in the Goldsboro~M Messenger
the following about honest Governor
Brogden. 1t tells where he stands
"We have been asked, says the
Messenger, "where is Ex-Governor
C. H. Brogden !" The Governor is
thoroughly disg"sted with the cor
rups revenue ring now "ruuning the
Republican party" and quietly en-.
Joys his ease and comfort on bis
farm and mill III Brogden township,
near this city. Gov. Brogden will
not tske any coalition or Liberal
ism" in bis ticket, b"t will support
the Democratic nominees on the
State ticket without exception, in
preference TO the oEce-hungry de-
serters from the Democratic camp.
This il in strict keeping with bis
record. Unlike other Republicans
Gov. BrogdeD, neither as Governor
nor while in Congress, ever went
back on bis State and people bY
traducing them to crafty partisan
ship. Let this stand to his credit"
We join in the words of the Mes
senQe,. Gov. Brogden's Republican
~partisanship has been often aseailed,
but we do not remember that he waa
ever charged by his bitterest foe
with misconduct OF any kind. True
to bis instincts Of what is right and
proper, now that a miserable coali-
ton has torn his party from old Re
publican mooriDgs and turned it into
> trading concern, he proposes to
vote the only ticket that commends
itself to the Judgment OF prudent
men. If he has to choose between
Democratic deserters aud the gen.
uinc article, he will take the genuine
article.
Is not that right?

An ,,oo,dantaI Love story.

! A special despatch from San Fran.
cisco, says: A sad sequel IN a love
affair has Just been brought to light in
Oakland, Alameda county.
A Miss Smith was employed as a
clerk in one of the stores of San Fran
cisco. She was accused of being a
heartless firt by those whom she had
made drink the bitter drug of disap-
pointment, and no sooner had she sue
ceeded in bringing o lover to her feet
than she would be of again in quest OF
new victories. She was always tortu-
nate enough to have q reserve on hand
and never felt the need of that pet so
much sought after by less fortunate
wOmen-a man, Finally she met her
affinity, or thought she had.
A young lieutenant from Vallejo was
caught in her net and she thought the
prize worth keeping. In due time the
marriage ceremony was to be perform
I'd aud the bride had selected her treus-
seau and informed her family of the
prospective son soon to be admitted
within the circle.
One day Miss Smith was absent from
home, a lady friend called and picking
up Miss Smiths album asked her moth
er how she became acquainted with
Mr.. Brown. Mrs. Smith replied that
it was not Mr.. Browns photograph
which she was looking at, hut Lieu
tenant Blanks, Of Vallejo, and that he
was engaged to be- married to her
daughter.
Engaged to be married to your
daughter Why, that's impossible, I"
exclaimed the lady visitor, che is my
brother. .in.law p
Bring your sister and if she reoog-
nizes that picture as her husband, 1
will believe what you say, and not
BEFORE" replied Mrs. Smith.
The lady brought her sister to the
house Immediately, and opening the
album asked her whose picture that
was, when the reply came, "Why, it is
Harry, my husband"
He was not nor never had been au
officer of the navy, and had borrowed
the uniform Of a lieutenant In which to
have his photograph taken to carry out
the deception being practiced on Miss
Smith.
When Mrs, Smith was convinced of
the truth of the matter sac gave way
to grief, but soon indignation gained
the mastery, ana she insisted upon the
ladies accompanying her to Oakland,
where her daughter was, that she
might be made acquainted with the
facts.
Crossing the bay the three ladies
found Miss Smith in the company of
her affianced.
The mother, white with anger, said,
" Hattie, do you know who the
scoundrel is you have promised to
marry ?"
Promised! scouLdrel 70 cried the
girl, jumping from her chair, pale and
frightened.
"Yes, Hattie, a soOundrel," replied
Mrs. Smith "a married man, n low
villain, and this is his wife," pointing
to the injured wife.
The girl fell to the floor with a shrek,
and 1t was soon found that reason had
fed. The poor unfortunate was taken
to one of our asylums, where the ply
sicians pronounced her incurable. The
villain fled, and does we'll to keep out
of sight Of the brothers of her whom he
80 cruelty betrayed.

Another opportunity will be offered
tomorrow, to those who desire to 60 to
Atlantic City to spend the day. These
Sunday trips on the FELTON, have be-
come quite popular and have been lib
orally patronized by our citizens. The
fare for the round trip is only 81 and
gives you a delightful ride on the boat
az far as Camden where you take the
cars tor the city by the sea, arriving
there at an early hour. About six hours
are given at this favorite resort, which is
ample time to view all the places of
note and the excursionists are returned
home at an early hour. Special officers
are on the boat to preserve order and
everything is done to make the trip o
pleasant one. Boat leaves French

A PennsyIvanIa UampaIg IN.

A special dispatch from Washington
says: The fact has come to light that
before his departure for Pennsylvania
Senator Mitchell endeavored to induce
several Republican Senators to take
part in the approaching canvass in be-
ha'f of the independents, but received
DO encouragement whatever Several
Senators with whom he talked told him
plainly that he WAS entering upon q
movement which would only bring
political ruin to every man engaged in
it, and result in nothing beyond
strengthening the Democratic ticket.
The Republican Senators, who feel
much interest in the result of the con-
test in Pennsylvania, without any ex-
ception take the view that tbe proper
course of the Regulars" is to pay no
attention to the Independents, but
make their fight against the Democrats
and let the so-called Retormers play
themselves out.
