Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
SCOTLAND NECK, October %, 1899.
Rev. ]. L. Dill closed his meetings in
the Baptist church here last night. He
had preached twelve days and nights and
quite number have been con-
verified. A number joined the Baptist
church at the close of the meeting, and
others will follow, and perhaps some
may Join some other church. fester-
day morning he varied the order of the
services and called for an experience
meeting, which vas participated in by
the laymen chiefly. They gave utter
ance to great growth in grace as conse-
auence OF the meeting and encouraged
the preacher very much by their evil
dence of greater strength to work for the
Church and the cause of religion IN the
future. 1t has been n good meeting,
and the town and community will long
feel Its influence.
OTHER sEETINGS
Rev. i. NJ. Curtis, OF this place, is
holding meeting in the Baptist church
at Crowell's, fifteen miles from here. 1t
is learned that he ID having considerable
success.
Mrs J. D. Carpenter has been con-
Quoting revival meeting at Clinton,
and although 1t rs out OF the usual order
of things for women TO do such work IN
North Carolina she has had remarkable
success She has heard the wonderful
Sam Jones, and she has the faculty OF
saving things with some OF the pointed
force that characterizes his language.
no REPRESENTATION WITHOUT TAXATION.
The colored people of this section are
getting into trouble 1t is learned that
many of them have registered and have
not listed their taxes. A number have
been arrested and many more will be.
1t is the purpose OF some leading Dem
ocrats here TO look into the matter
thoroughly and make every one sutfer
who has thus tried to take advantage oil
the law. The Republicans are making
strong effort in this county. Ben.
Davis. q colored man from this place
who got position in the Post-Oflice
Department at Washington, is in the
community speaking and otherwise
planning with them.
The merchants of Tarboro', together
with some farmers in Edgecombe county,
have bought the controlling interest IN
the Hamilton railroad and will soon ship
all their freights by that road TO Hamll-
ton, where the Roanoke Transportation
Company Will take it and carry it to
Elizabeth City or to Baltimore.
Mr.. Frank ID. Foxhall, of Edgecombe
made $3.50 net profit on one acre of to-
bacco this year. He took the first pre-
MUM of $40 at the State Fair, and some
of the tobacco produced in that county
has been purchased for the Atlanta Ez-
position.
AS vet there has been no canvassing
done in this county, but the Democrats
are hopeful of carrying the election.
The registration closes now, and by con-
siderable activity nearly all the white
men of the county have registered.

MAD WITH HARRISON.

They have been fighting for two
years and now those who will not vote
the Democratic or peoples ticket will
simply remain at home on election-day.
This is an influential element and its abb
sence from the polls on election-day will
be sadly missed by the Republican man
ayers. The friends Of Judge Gresham
arc inactive and rather hope that the
State will go Democratic, and many of
Harrison's reliable friends think that II
the State goes Democratic it will force
the next National Republican Conven-
ton to renominate Harrison for re-elec-
ton. They say that he is the only Re-
publican who can carry the State in
1899 if it should go Democratic this fall.
The election occurs Tuesday, November
4th. and the indications now are that the
Indiana Democracy will greet its brethren
of the Old Dominion with some very
cheering and satisfactory news on the
morning of tho 9th.

II is hoped, will secure large portion OF
the dissatisfied soldier vote and his tariff
views are relied upon TO mako havoc
among the farmers who arc tired OF In
crcasing tariff taxation. Ii is thought
that Colonel Patton will defeat Mr..
Owen.
TWELVE OUT or THrrTE.S.
To sum up, then, the congressional
situation: 1t looks possible for the
Democrats to carry twelve out OF thir-
teen districts. The Sixth is heavy Re-
publican district that can give that party
almost 10000 majority, and the Demo
Gratis have made no nomination there.
The Democrats may lose the First and
Eighth and fail 10 oust the Repub
llcans from the Ninth and Tenth. The
delegation would then stand eight
Democrats TO five Republicans The
Republicans are anticipating tho latter
situation, and some conservative Demo
Gratis expect nothing better. Sanguine
Democrats hope to elect twelve out Of
the thirteen congressman and large
majority on joint ballot OF the Legisla-
ture, and thus return Mr.. Voorhees, to
the Senate.
TIE STATE TICKET.
As regards the State ticket there seems
TO be no reasonable doubt that the Dem
ocrats will be successful by large ma
jority. 1t may be reduced because OF
the iancied iutricacies OF the new Austria
lian-balot lew. which will be tried for
the first time at this election. 1t is n
Democratic measure pat in force to stop
such rascalities as were contemplated by
the famous or rather infamous Dud-
ley blocks-of-fve scheme, and the
Republicans opposed it from start
to finish, although their Republic
can Governor, Hoyey, signed the
bill making it law. They are
now engaged all over the State in tang
ling and mixing up Democratic voters IN
regard 10 its provisions, making them
believe that the law is intricate. vague,
and liable if not faithfully carried out by
tho voter to force his arrest or vitiate his
ballot. The Democrats have instructors
in every township posting the people IN
regard to the nlOdUs Opcrnndt OF the
new law. In truth, it Is a very simple
mode OF voting, and, it is to be hoped,
will secure fair and honest expression
Of the political inclinations Of the peo-
pie Of Indiana.
THE FARMER II FIGHTING COSTUME.
The Democrats hope for many Re-
pubicans TO change, especially among
the farmers. The farmer IS mad this
year and is in full fighting costume. lie
thinks the Republican party IS at the
bottom Of the hard times, and he IS
especially wide awake on tariff reform.
The Mckinley bill came along at very
good time to force the farmer to keep
up his thinking on tariff matters. IL 1t
were fight between the two old parties
the Democratic majority would be
simply enormous, but there is Farm
ers' Alliance ticket in the field that will
probably secure several thousand votes.
Another element of Republican weak
ness is the large army OF kickers against
Harrison's Administration. 1t Is com
posed largely OF the party workers who
expected generous slices of Federal pa
tronage and who failed TO get any.
Living in the Presidents State every
man of them expected to be handsomely
remembered.

CHICAGO, May 3.-The arbitration
committee of the carpenters union and
the new boss carpenters association
met again this morning, and when a
recess was taken for lunch it was an
nOupced that they had progressed so
far III their work that it had been de-
termided that work should be resumed
on Monday by as many carpenters as
the members of the new association
could find employment for. The de-
mands OF the strikers have been sub
Stautially conceded. They are to work
eight hours; none but union men are to
be employed, and they are to
have union foTemen The secretary
of the committee said that but two
points of difference remained: The
price per hour TO be paid and the gov
eminent OF apprentices, and these
Wauld be submitted to the three Judges
who are acting as umpires. AS to
wages, the bosses think 80 cents per
hour a fair compensation, while the
men want 40 cents. The situation as to
the strike among the fOuDdrymen in the
great establishment on the Black road
remains practically unchanged, except
that the number Of strikers at Meteor
mick S reaper factory has been Increased
ever. The other large establishments
are idle. The proprietOrs say they can
not concede eight hours unless their
competitors in other cities do likewise.
There has been no disturbance at any
point.
Tonight the report that the carpenters
would go to work Monday was officially
denied. A special document of warning
was issued 10 that effect. The details
of the arbitration will, however, prob
ably be raid before the journey

the new bosses association said tonight
