Congressman Felix Campbell, of New York,

while i'll New York naturally associated with
business men. He says Mr.. Cleveland will re-

ticians there are not taking into consideration.
The vote will be mainly from the many repub-
lican business men of New York and BROOKLYN
who are satisfied with Mr.. Cleveland's admins
tration. These are not advertising the fact, but
will vote silently for Cleveland and will con-
tribute literally to the democratic campaign
fund. In concluding his conversation Mr.

out that, by hard work and the liberal use Of
money, on the part of the republicans, this can
be overcome at the approaching election.

Last nights session Of the North Carolina
state Farmers Alliance in this city was very
interesting, as was also this mornings session,
There was a very full discussion of the estab.
lishment OF state business agency.
some delegates were In favor OF Amounting a
man outside OF the alliance to have charge Of
that agency, but majority OF the members
strongly opposed this, and finally W. A. Dar-
den, OF Green county, was chosen state agent
1T wil'be his duty to make all purchases for
tho alliance. All Sub-alliances will let him
know their wants. He will purchase with
money which will be furnished him by the
state trustee.
The alliance this morning elected William
y. Graham, of Lincoln county to the latter
position He is to be responsible for the funds
received from sub-all;ances and will pay them
to the state agent being aided in this part OF
the work by the treasurer OF the state alliance.

that trust in plain terms. The alliance decided
to cease the use of iute or gumny baggings, to
substitute the low grades of cotton rs a coyer-
erng for bales. 1t was shown that this would
be cheap and would serve every purpose. IL
was shown further that it could be made
cheaply by home mills
Some OF the members of the alliance were so
plain spoken in regard to this trust mattex

RALEIGH, N. c., August 17.-[SpeciaL !
Some time ago Congressman John NJ Bower,
of the fifth North Carolina district, voted for
the Mills bill. This act greatly incensad the
majority of the republicans. Some Of the
newspapers took down Bowers name from their
columns and in other ways gave him the cold
shoulder.

pearance of the following official announce
ment:

publican congressional committee of the fifth dis
trict of North Carolina will be held Mt Greensboro

Matson and HOvey.

WASHINGTON, August 16.-[Special. 1.-The
two opposing candidates for governor of
Indiana are still here watching each other and
observing the canvass from afar. Yesterday
General Hovey told Mr.. Matson that he was
ready at any time TO pair with him and go
home. Mr. Matson will agree and they will
take the field.
1t is proposed by the two committees that
they take the stump together in joint discuss
ion. This will necessarily make red hot
campaign. Both candidates confidently ex-
pect to be elected, but the prevailing opinion
here is that Mr.. MatSon will win.
OLD JOE M'DoNALD.
Ex-senator Mcdonald came in from Indi-
ana this morning.
"Things look very favorable to the demo-
Gratis" he said. 81 have never had any doubt
about Indiana going democratic. The condi-
shall carry the state by good majority. The
canvass is going on, but this is the heated
term, and things are a little quiet. Mr.. Harri-
son has not been able to arouse much enthusi-
asm. Very little has been accomplished by
those excursions, receptions, and so forth
They have been sort OF failure. "
THE PRESIDENTS ACCEPTANCE.
The publication of the presidents letter of
acceptance will probably be delayed until the
latter part of this month.
In the meantime, the democratic campaign
book is ready for publication, and it is said to
contain some very valuable information.
Members of the national committee who have
recently been here claim that the campaign
committee is doing all possible at this early
stage of the campaign, but there is, neyerthe-
less. lack of confidence in the committee BY
senators and representatives.

Speaking for Democracy.

AsHEvILLE, N. c., August 13.-Today at 10
O'Clock a large and enthusiastic crowd met in
Nellie park to hear speeches from Hon. Dan
Voorhees,, Senator Butler, Of South Carolina,
and General p. NJ. B. Young, of Georgia.
Notwithstanding the early hour for such
orations, about 5000 hearers were present, in
Guiding many ladies. The speakers addressed
the crowd from a stage erected under the
shade of the trees. The day was beautiful
and pleasant.
Senator Voorhees, speech was about three
quarters of an hour in length and was an adj
mirabe and powerful review of the conduct
and relation of the parties, an eloquent pre-
sentation of the claims of the democratic
party to support and confidence, and an
equally eloquent arraignment and condem-
nation of the republicans.
Senator Buffers speech was half an hour in
length, and both were heard with close atten-
ton and were applauded with unbounded en-
thusiaSm.
General Young was compelled to decline on
account of the condition of his voice.
