DURHAM.
J. 5. MANNING, of Durham:
Stedman or Clark.
G. $ SToyER:
The major part of them don't care wheth-
er they have any or not.

EX. Com:
Elias Carr, one of the foremost farmers
of the State aud man who would make
a most excellent Governor, having the
essentials of a successful executive off .'"
ELIAS CARR, of Old Sparta:
The most available mantle noni,4,e
of the party.
JAMES NORFLEET, of Tarboro:
That is a hard ques ion, we do not say.
Sentiment does not crystalline about ;.ny
one. To be sure we have local pride in
Mr. Elias Carr, prominent in Agricultural
circles, whose name appears among H. list
of those who would make good Goveraors
and we would be glad to see bin Governor
for he would fill the position admira dy
! Furth than this, no choice seems t. btA
expressed, and We seem to be waiting for
| the strongest man to take us along j: his
train.
FORSYTH.
r. B. KERNER, of Winston, Chm. Dem
EX. Com:
know of no sentiment centeling upon
any one man. Armtield, in my opinion,
would be ForSyth's choice. Gilmer has
many friends here. No Judge has ever
left here more universally c0muIeld
than Judge Clark. Stedman's speech made
in Winston during the campaign of 1881
is often, up to the present time, highly
spoken of. How Forsyths vote mtJ be
cast in the convention, l don't mean to
predict
NJ. w. NORFLEET. of Winston:
The Democrats will be for the nominee.
Too many mentioned 10 express a prefer
ence at this time.
Y. ". LONG. editor Winston Seutinel
believe Armfield is the most favored
in our county, though Giimer has man:
friends Clark is weak here and if nomi-
mated would fail to receive the votes Of
many so-called good Democrats
J. H. LINDSEY, editor kcInerovine News
and Farm:
There is no crystallization Of sentimen+
feeling that Ex Gov. Jarvis is perhaps the
most available man and Judge Fowle the
most deserving. Then too. We have the
admirers of Clark, Holt and >t"dman, but
several with whom have talked say the
old ticket of Jarvis and Armtieid is good
enough for them.
FRANKLIN.
7. J. KING, of Louisburg:
We want Judge Fowle for Governor,
Alexander for Lieut.. Governor.
J 4. THOMAS, editor I.ouisburg Times:
We believe that Hon. D. @. foVle is the
man for the Democratic party to put up as
its candidate for Governor this year. No
man in the State is capable Of making
more brilliant campaign than Daniel
G. Fowle, and he is a strong man
before the people. He has been tried
np0n the bench, one of the most re
sponsible positions, and never found want
ing. Now, we say, lets try him III the
Governors chair. Franklin county con
tains some of the strongest Fowe men in
the State, who have been anxious TO sec
him honored by the party, for whose sue
cess he has always so jealousy labored
but they have given back for and worked
for others when their friend was not
} chosen. and now they feel that their favor
: ite should have full, fair and heart!
| recognition, With Fowle for Governor
aud Alexander of Mecklenburg, or MaSor
of Northampton for Lieutenant Governor
the Democrats (we think) could sweep tn,
county.
G&STON.
E L. PEGRAM, of Stanly Greek:
Alexander or Stedman.
GATES.
L. L. SMITH, of Gatesville, Chm Dem. Ex
Com:
Any good man the party may nominate
Our people do not make much noise abon
the nomination for the State officers. hu
when the time comes to vote, they max,
! up for all lost time. | believe, though
that Stedman and f,ilmer are more favor
ably spoken of than any of the others
whose names have been mentioned.
