VANCE'S STRENGTH
INCREASING DESPITE THE ATTACKS
OF THE ALLIANCE ORGAN.
simmons TO Re Urged for Congress in the
Second District-The Negro Dis
content In the State.
Correspondence OF the Richmond DIspatchI
RALEIGH, N. c., August IS, 1890.


RALEIGH, N. c., August IS, 1890.
State-Auditor Sanderlin arrived here to-
day from the Cape Fear section. He spent
some days there with Senator Vance. The
latter spoke three times, and Auditor San
derlin SAYS he never saw him received with
greater warmth. Vance is stronger in the
State now than ever before, which is GER
tainly saying great deal
Some time ago Z. III. Simmons withdrew
from the contest for the Democratic con-
gresslonal nomination in the Second dis
trict; His friends. IL now appears, will urge
his claims, and will contend that he is the
man best able to defeat Cheatham. the
negro Republican candidate. There is
some opposition on the part of the negroes
20 Cheatham despite the latter's tele-
gram that he had been nominated by
reclamation amid great applause and
enthusiasm. The idea has been that Mr..
Newborn, the alliance man. would be the
Democratic candidate. He is not so able
Il man as Simmons. it is said. and the work
of the latter while in Congress was Of a
character TO greatly advance him in popu-
lar estimation. Slmmonss friends will
therefore place his name before the con-
vention despite his decination 10 be q
candidate.
THE NEGRO CONVENTION.
The negroes are keeping quiet in regard
TO their proposed State convention here on
the 26th II is therefore impossible to say
whether the meeting will or will not be q
large one. The Administration has GER
tainly endeavored, through some Of its
agents, during the past few weeks TO allay
the growing discomfort among the black
voters. What effect this work will have
remains 20 be seen. The statements of the
negro voters prior TO elections have
heretofore been go little grounded
on truth that most people now
are unbellevers when they hear the
negroes threaten TO abstain from voting or
vote against the regular ticket. Yet there
is sure 10 be pretty good number OF ne
gro candidates in Republican counties.
In Wake county, for instance, two negroes
will be candidates for clerk Of court,
the other for register of deeds. IL Is the
younger class OF negroes which this year
desires Office. Many may be bought of
or still further deceived by Republican
promises.
GOOD CROP WEATHER.
Tho weather for the past six days has
been highly favorable 10 tobacco. and, in
deed, for all crops. Bright DAYS have had
most beneficial effect. The fields are
like gardens and the oldest farmers never
saw such corn and cotton. With crops
produced at far less cost than ever before
there ought to be great deal of prosper,
ity by November. The cotton crop Will
be heavy and rather late. To pick 1t Will
require all available labor. The returns
10 the Department Of Agriculture show no
scarcity Of labor worthy of mention. The
exodus will not begin until the cotton crop
is picked.

A RUSH FOR THE TRADE
In Fertilizers in North Carolina-Proba'
BILE Trouble in the etate Convention.
Lnu tnlnrrar.h 20 Tho nlanaich.l


RALrrGH. N. c., August 1s.-Just as was
predicted, there is rush 70 this state
since the decision OF the Federal Court
that the $500 license tax of the manutac-
turers OF fertilizers was unconstitutional,
and there will be regular scramble Tor
the fall trade. II was learned at the De-
partment Of Agriculture to-day that this IS
tho case. and also that there IS hardly any
idea Of appealing TO the United States Su-
preme Court. The Board of Agriculture
does not meet until December. and there
are funds 10 maintain the department and
the Agricultural College until the Legisla-
ture meets. There will be twice "a many
students at the college next term as at
tended it at the last one.
A NEW ORGAN.
The SINAI the Republican organ, will
appear here tomorrow, prominent west
ern Republicans having put up the neces-
sary funds. Its editor Will be d. q. l..
Harris, who is secretary otthe State EXecu-
tive Committee of that party.
THE NoMISATIoNs FOR JUDGES.
The Democratic State Convention meets
here az noon day after tomorrow IN
Metropolitan Hall. IL does not give
promise Of being large convention and a
number Of extreme western and eastern
counties will probably lie manly repre-
seuted by proxies. There Is no doubt that
4. :. Nerrimon will be nominated tor
Chief Justice and Walter Clark for AssO-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court. The
convention will be called upon TO ratlfy
the nominations Of judges of the Superior
Court. and as TO one of these there may be
some trouble, as there are assurances OF
some opposition.

AWFULLY MEAN.

How INSCRIPTIONS Persons Impose on
the ssSlot' Machine.
Unless some new arrangement of their
mechanism can be devised, the ''drop.a-
nickel-in-t -the-slot'' weighing apparatus and
etry-your- nerve electric batteries have
seen their best DAYS. So far as the weigh
ing machines are concerned, there was
some time since discovered a means of
"beating" it, by pushing up against the top
of it, when the dial that marks the persons
weight is released.
But recently another method has been
devised of cutting of the profits of the
owners of these machines, which have now
become SO common in hotels and saloons
all over the country, and the proprietors
are said TO be nearly craZed in consequence.
1t seems that evil-minded and unserupu-
persons are imposing on the innocent slots,
which are unable TO distinguish the differ
ence between leaden bullet fattened by
a oar-wAeel and the nickel of the realm.
Secret Service Agent Harris has gone to the
assistance of the nickel-in-the-slot men in
San Francisco, according to the Altd, and
has been successful to some extent. He
found that there are hundreds of pieces of
base metal which greatly resemble nickel
afioat in this city. These pieces are only
advertising lodges of a red rubber stamp
man, but they cause the slot machines to
yield up their treasures, nevertheless.
Mr.. Harris obtained such piece that
greatly resembles a fye-cent piece, and
might even be passed as money, for on one
side it has large figure 5, with small C
at its right. The piece reads, 'Good for SC
on purchase of stamp" Harris found that
Klinkner had ordered 1000 of these imita-
ton nickels from Chicago. Mr.. Harris told
him that if he put any more of such stuff
on the market he would be arrested for
violating United States law, the penalty
for which is fine of not more than 81 900
or imprisonment for not more than FIVE
years.

HIGH WATER BELOW.

Brannan Island Inundated, and Several
Others in Danger.
A telegram to the RECORD UNION from
Walnut Grove, received last evening, said:
"The water here to-day is six inches higher
than at any time this season, but the levees
in this vicinity are all good for from fifteen
to eighteen inches more.
"a break was report on Mrs. Hensley's
ranch on Andrus Island, butt was repaired
before much damage was done. 1t is very
doubtful if it can be held, however, as the
water runs over the levee in many places,
and large force of men are at work with
sacks.
1.-The same may be said of Grand Island.
which they are working bard to save, and
if there be no strong winds or further rise
in the river they will no doubt hold it,
although the water has ran over in some
places.
1.-The Brsnnan Island levee broke on the
Morgan ranch yesterday, and at last reports
was fast filling up. The break is reported
to be ninety feet wide"
1t may seem little strange to most peo-
pie that the water should be so much
higher in the Lowe Sacramento than it
was last December, while it is so compara-
lively low here but the situation is easily
explained.
The river was 26 feet IL inches in front
of this city when the break in the levee at
Payne's ranch, on the Yolo side, occurred
Had that break not occurred. or had it since
been closed, there can be little doubt but
that the water in the river opposite Sacra.
mento would to-day be higher than it was
in December. As it is, there is probably
more water going down the river channel
and through the break, than the river then
contained before the break occurred, hence
the higher water below.

IN THE LINE OF PROGRESS.
The city Board of Trades Plans

The City Board of Trades Plans-Its
Proposed New Building.
The Board of Trade of this city, through
committee composed of A. Andrew, E.
K. Alsip, William Ingram, Jr., George NJ
Mott and G. G. Pickett, has issued circu-
eular to the public setting forth its pur-
poses in incorporating, and calling atten-
ton to the advisability of citizens sub
scribing to the stock of the Board with the
object of raising fund for the purpose of
erecting in this city building to be known
as the Board Of Trade building, which will
not only be credit to the city but good
financial investment for the stockholders
1t is proposed TO erect building costing
from 500, 900 TO 100000, according to the
success with which the proposition is met
no plans or specifications having as yet
been agreed upon. The only thing which
might be stated as definitely settled is, that
should success crown the efforts of the pro-
moters of this enterprise, the building will
be centrally located, and used for stores
and offices.
Already says the committee, "applica-
ton has been made Dy large and respon-
sible firm for ten years lease of the en-
tire first floor, at remunerative rental.
Some of the ablest and most experienced
fnanciers in the city have considered the
proposition and have asserted that, view
ing it from financial standpoint, if prop
erly managed, cannot fail to prove success
full; and that, aside from the advantages
which the city at large would derive from
the erection of large and magnificent
building such as is proposed, it would be
remunerative for investors, and have at
tested to their faith in the enterprise by
subscribing literally for stock"
