UDGEFOWLE IN EDENTON
A BIG cRowD-GRAND SPEECH AND
GOOD WORK DONE FOR DEMoC-
RACY.

Tuesday, according to published
announcement. Hon. Daniel g..
Fowle addressed the good people of
Chowan. At the appointed hour Of
IL the people, from every part of the
county, and many from Hartford,
BERTHE, Perquimans and Tyrrell, as
sembled in the Court House which,
under the direction of the Cleveland
and Fowle Club, had been appropri-
ately decorated with flags and other
adornments fit for the reception of
speaker and people. The ladies. in
large numbers, graced the occasion
with their presence reminding us of
the years gone by when the pure
men of old, such as Judge w. N. H.
Smith, DR.. H. M. Shaw, John c..
Badham, K. r. Rainer and others,
bright ornaments in the more halcyon
days of our. States history, were
leaders of political thought and
action in the grand old First District.
Mr.. J. r. B. Hathaway, in appro-
pirate terms introduced the speaker,
who, for more than two hours, thor
oughly enraptured his hearers. His
style is perfection itself and his logic
is irresistible. Of the old school. he
was holiness personifed, never stoop-
ing to trite expression, hackneyed
Jokes or vulgar chestnutty comparl-
son. All through his most masterly
address not an offensive word was
heard, not the slightest diversion
from that chaste and elegant line of
true oratory always and successfully
persued by him.
His arraignment of the Republican
party under the general charge OF
failure, corruption and extravaganza
was clear forcible and most convin-
cling. His way of handling the tariff
is incompatible and. although dry
subject for spirited discussion, it
becomes a pleasant theme with him
and enables him to charm, rather
than weary, even his lady listeners.
Such speeches and such speaker
robs accusation of any unwholesome
charge against the grand old party
and lifts democracy to her old time
level of purity and patriotic truth.
To attempt even anything like a
synopsis Of the speech would event
uate in failure and result in injustice
to the matchless powers of the
speaker. 1t was all and in all such
as the best could wish it and all
could approve. If any man hearing
it, went away unconvinced, it was
because he was fastened to his idols
and is fully fit TO be let alone.
At the conclusion Of the speech
the Judge was presented with an
elegant boquet of handsome flowers
by the ladies which gift he received
and appropriately acknowledged.
From here he went to Plymouth,
escorted by the Edenton Cornet
Band, where he will be given grand

FOR COUNTY CORONER.
DIR. j. ID. Mclean, the Republican CandI-
date for Election.

Dr. j. ID. Mclean. the Republican Candi-
date for Election.
II is gratifying to be able to assure the
voters OF this county, that Dr. Mclean, the
republican nominee for county coroner, is
ii gentleman in every way worthy of the
full party vote. as we'll as votes outside of
the party. He has been resident of this
city for over year, and is recognized by
his many friends, us a successful man in
every way. The doctor began the study of
medicine in 1867, and since then has
practiced for some years in Canada, al
though he graduated at Rush Medical Col
lege, Chicago. His papers Of endorsement
from medical and other societies, show that
his standing elsewhere in the medical pro-
fession has been no less favorable than it
is here.
The county coroner is an officer whose
services are unfortunately becoming quite
frequently in demand. and as the city
grows and the county settles up, the duties
thereof will increase in Importance.
Hence there are many reasons why it
should be filled by man in whom the
public can repose full confidence.--one
prompt in the discharge OF his duties and
of strict integrity as well as intelligence.
The present incumbent, DR.. Penfed, has
given. so far as we know, excellent satis-
faction, and nothing herein contained is in
tended to reflect on his administration; but
nevertheless, a change of administration
is apparent at this particular time, and we
commend the republican candidate to the
county voters at large.

FOR COUNTY AUDITOR.
a Capable and Deserving Man. who Is to
Be FL ctd.

a Capable and Deserving Man, Who IL TO
Be Elscid.
Mr. NJ. ID. Smith the republican nomi.
nee for this office, has been u resident of
Washington territory for eight years. He
first settled at Cofax, and engaged in the
hotel business, but being burned out on
July "a, 1884, he then accepted position
in the United States land Office as clerk,
which place he held until December 81,
1884, when he was promoted to the posi-
tion of chief clerk. because of his untiring
zeal in the performance of the duties there
devolving upon him.
On the 5th Of January, 1885. Mr.. Smith
accepted the position of deputy auditor
under Mr.. b. G. Van Houten, the present
incumbent, which place he still holds.
If Mr.. Van Houten, who is known to be
thorough business man, has retained
MIR. Smith through the past four years as
chief deputy and confidential clerk 1t Is
sufficient evidence of his thorough busi-
ness ability. which should, and we predict
will. be appreciated by the voters OF Spo-
kane county at the coming election.
Mr.. Smith deserves the support of every
loyal citizen. for the rerson that when the
dark clouds of war were rolling over land our
he, with his two brothers, donned the blue
and served his country as a private soldier
during that great contest for national su-
premacy, he being but Il years old when
he first sboudered musket.

AN IMPORTANT OFFICE.
A Man Possessing the Necessary Quail
Rcations for Assessor.

A Man Possessing the Necessary Quail
hcations for Assessor.
There are many people who do not rec
ognize the importa ance OF selecting COM
petent man for county assessor. IL there
Is an Office in the county for which voters
should select an incumbent with especial
care, it is the Office of county assessor.
The county assessor should be man not
only we'll acquainted with the taxpayers
of the county, but should also be familiar
with the values of property
Alexander Watt, the republican nomi-
nee for county assessor, is that kind of a
man. Mr.. Watt resides at Stevens, and
is an old-time resident Of Spokane county.
For two years he has served as deputy
under Assessor Strong, and is therefore
already acquainted with the requirements
of the Office, and can at once intelligently
enter upon his duties. Mr.. Strong was
one of the most earnest advocates of the
nomination of Mr.. Watt, Because" as
he stated to REVIEW reporter yesterday,
IL had learned from experience that Mr..
Watt possessed eminent qualifications fer
the office. He is acquainted with the du-
ties of the place from practical experience
is thoroughly familiar with values, and
possesses every requirement for the office.
He is we'll known citizen, and his integ.
rity is unouestioned.
MIR. Watts opponent on the democratic
ticket is his brother, James Watt, who,
by the way, is not regarded as a resident
of this county. his home being at Daven-
port. Alexander Watt will unquestion-
ably be the next assessor OF Spokane
county.

A fLEVEL-HEADED MAN.
Captain steven L. Grubb the Republican
Nominee for Representative.

Captain steven I. Grubb the Republican
Nominee for Representative.
Captain Steven Il. Grubb, the republl-
can nominee for representative in the leg
isIature, resides on his farm about four
miles west of our neighboring town Of
Cheney. He settled there three years ago
last spring, and is prosperous in bringing
forth raw productions from the native soil
His neighbors speak we'll of him as man,
and few of us can say so much as that.
Steve was born in the great state of
Pennsylvania, amid those proper home
surroundings that made such sterling men
as rhad Stevens. Jerry Black and thous-
and others. There, amid the quiet homes
OF honest people, he grew to manhood.
With spirit of enterprise that prompts
men to 90 West, he afterwards moved to
Illinois. and young as he was, when the
war came on he entered the union ranks
as a private in the lst Illinois light artil-
lery After time he was promoted to
the rank of captain for gallant services in
the field. That alone speaks volumes for
any man.
His experience has been wide among
men and affairs his head is as level as
was his musket when he took aim; and as
true republican he always votes as
straight as he shoots. He will be elected.

A MAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Eugene b. Hyde, Republican Candidate
for Joint uncilman.

Eugene b. Hyde, Republican Candidate
for Joint uncilman.
If there is man on the ticket to whom
republicans can point with especial pride,
that man is Eugene B. Hyde, the nominee
for joint councilman for the counties of
Spokane, Stevens and OkanoRan. 1t is
not necessary for the REVIEW to say any
commendatory of ''Gene" Hyde. They all
know him, and the better they know
him the better they like him.
But to the people Of the comparatively
new counties of Stevens and Okanogan it
may not be amiss to say that Mr.. Hyde
came to Spokane Falls from Wisconsin
seven years ago. A new man in new
town, he at once accepted the situation
and settled down to hard work, exhibit
ing that pluck and determination which
have contributed to the success in life of
SO many enterprising men. MIR.
Hyde served four years as city marshal of
Spokane Falls, and was for two years a
member of the city council, and in both
positions proved himself in every way
worthy of public confidence, and public
servant whose services were always ex-
erted for the public good. regardless of
self interests. From his earliest residence
in this city Mr.. Hyde has worked for the
success of the place and for the q lvance-
in every sense an enterprising citizen and
representative mana man in wnom the
pubic have the utmost confidence. and
to whose keeping public interests
can be con6ded with the certainty
of being sacredly guarded. A mar
who has the full confidence of
his fellow citizens. who is enterpris.
ing and .publlc-spirited, who abors un-
selGshly for the community in which he
lives, who is possessed of rare good judR-
ment and determination for the right,
who has tact, sagacity and an abundance
of common sense, who is possessed of the
most necessary requirements of judicious
and trustworthy leRislator.--these are
among the qualifications of Eugene B.
Hyde for the position for which ne has
been nominated. The REVIEW believes
that better nomination for joint council
man could not possibly have been made.
Mr.. Hyde is q successful business man,
and has ever been faithful guardian Of
public interests at home. A man
ever alive to the interests of
the community in which he lives can safely
be trusted to legislate for the people, Mr..
Hyde. II elected, will prove AN able cham
pion of the vast and gro wing interests OF
the counties which he, represents In the
territorial council. and Will be Legislator
worthy of place among the ablest repre-
sentatives at the territorial capital We.
believe that public interests will best be
subserved W his election.

BOUGHT A STOLEN HORSE.
a valuable Animal Recovered After he
img Lost for Nearly Near.

Ing Lost for Nearly u Year.
Saturday evening a REVIEW reporter
noticed Officer Gillesuie hurrying up How
ard street accompanied by man who was
pointing in the direction of the depot in
an excited manner. The reporter at once
gave chase, and was joined by others, un.
til the procession was increased to fifty
men before it had gone block.
Near the freight depot the policeman
hailed man mounted on u fine bay horse,
which animal was at once claimed by the
excited man who accomp lnied the officer.
The gentleman on the horse proved to
be Mr.. Roundtree, of the Medical Lake
stage line. who said he had bought the
animal within the last twenty.four hours
from Alex. Moore.
The man who claimed the horse was
William Mason, a hat-breed from the
Cpur d Alene reservation, who stated that
the animal disappeared from pasture on
the reservation nearly year ago. Last
week an Indian informed Mason that he
had seen the missing horse in this city,
and the owner at once came here in the
hope of recovering his property. He had
been in the city but short time when he
saw Mr.. Roundtree riding the horse along
the street, and policeman was called.
with the result above stated. Mason
proved his ownership to the horse by q
dozen witnesses, and of course the unfor-
tunate purchaser had to give him up. 1t
was not learned how many times the horse
had changed hands since it left the
possession OF the thief.

JOINT REPRESENTATIVE.
Hon. Charles Il. Laugiton, the Republi-
can Candidate.

Hon. Charles Il. Laughton, the Republi-
can Candidate.
Ex-Governor Laughton, republican can
didate for joint representative on the re-
publican ticket. arrived in Spokane yes
terday from the Sound. His residence is
at Conconully, Okanogan county, and his
district includes Spokane, Stevens and
Okanoean counties. He is thoroughly
identified with all the vital interests Of
this region, and especially the mining in
dustry, which now needs so much devel-
opment. He became prominent in the
Okanogan mining region very soon after
the first discoveries there, and by his exer-
tions one OF the finest reduction works in
the territory was erected at Conconully,
or as it is Otherwise known, Salmon City.
1t is his purpose to secure such Legislation
as is required upon the mining industry,
and an large percentage of his constitu-
ents are directly interested in that, they
are necessarily directly interested his elec.
ton. As that great mining region is
tributary to Spokane Falls, and largely
supplied from this city, its building up
and greater prosperity comes home to us
as personal duty, end no sensible citizen
or business man will omit to cast bis
straight vote for Charley Laughton.

a GOOD SELECTION.
NJ. L. Harrison, the Winning Candidate
for Probate Judge.


There Is always such an array of canei.
dates for the various offices before county
convention that is indeed fortunate it a
ticket is made up that gives entire salts
faction. As u rule there is generally u
a few soreheads, who. If not driven to tine
extreme of bolting at least are not stimu'
lated to any enthusiasm, and are luke
warm in ther party allegiance.
In this respect the very best of good for
tune crowned the deliberations OF the re-.
publican county convention this year, and
the result was the framing OF ticket that
no member of the republican party Will
hesitate to support while the personal
character and general fitness OF the gen
temen nominated thereon commend 1T to
the favorable consideration OF every MEM
ber of the opposite parCy. Although each
and every selection an the republican
ticket. was decided upon the merits or the
applicants, we believe that in no instance,
from the most important to the least
among the elect, did the delegates In ses-
Ion use better judgment than In the
Choice of a candidate for Probate Judge
The gentleman who was thus honored.--is
MIR. MILLARD 7. HARRISON, the pres
ent incumbent.
1t was but fitting testimonial to the
sterling merits of a most worthy gentle-
man. and a reward for the admirable man
ner in which he has conducted the affairs
of this very important office since his In
cumbency.
Mr.. Harrison was selected 10 the office of
probate Judge two years ago by one OF the
largest majorities given to any candidate
before the people, That the people acted
wisely in thus supporting this gentleman
is proven by the marked ability he has
displayed in his conduct of that position.
He has been tried and found eminently
qualified for carrying on the duties OF his
office, and it is safe at this time to PROM
ise that he will succeed himself by even
greater majority than recorded his success
two years ago.
Mr.. Harrison is bright, reliable and
promising young attorney, who has re-
sided in Spokane Falls for over five years,
He has made many warm friends both In
public and private life. Those who have
had occasion to do business with him In
his official capacity have found him always
pleasant and accommodating. two charac.
teristics that will tend largely to increase
his majority next Tuesday.

FOR ADJUTANT GENERAL.
a Man Who Has Acceptably Filled the
Office For Many Years.


General Ross G.. o 'Brien, whose name is
quite familiar to voters in this territory,
has again been placed on the republican
ticket for adjutant general, which position
he has faithfully filled for many years.
Although comparatively a young man.
General o Brien served with credit during
the war of the rebellion. and is active in
Grand Army circles. He takes a great in
terest in militia matters and is just the
man for adjutant general.
During General O'Brien's service IN
this office he has sacrificed bis time and
private funds without stint, there being
no salary attached to the position. Nov
that the territory has a militia law some
one IL needed in the adjutant general's .
Office qualified to direct affairs and look
after the peoples interest. and General
O'Brien's past experience has shown him
to be just the man for the position. Gen.
eral O'Brien is popular wherever known
and enjoys the distinction of having re-
ceived the largest majority ever cast in
Washington territory, his majority for
adjutant general six years ago being over
10000. His re-election Is certainty.
