DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 5.-The
third annual convention Of the
National Association of Letter
Carriers Of the United States was
called to order in the Odd Fellows
Temple at ten o'clock by President
John j. Goodwin, of Providence,
r. I. Two hundred delegates
representing forty-one States and
Territories handed in their Gre
dentials.
In his opening address President
Goodwin congratulated the delegates
upon the permanent growth Of the
organization. A year ago, he said,
but ffty-three branches were repre-
sented at Boston. To-day there
were 235. A special committee
appointed last year submitted plan
for an insurance branch on the as
sessment principle providing fol
death benefits of $4,000 and 800
to widows or other heirs of decea, &c
members and the convention pro
| ceeded to discuss the project.

9O2 pounds per acre average. Thou
sands more of equally good show
iDgs can be furnished. These are
al, pie proofs that the scientific cul-
ture Of" North Carolina brights''pay
magnificent profits. Wonderful
strides along this line not yet
dreamed Of by those who cast no
glace at the future are to be made.
These splendid facts and encour-
aging prospects must be made known
to the world. The Worlds Fair
gives an excellent opportunity. Mr..
Wood suggests that Gov. Holt be
requested to add special representa-
tives of the tobacco interest to
the Worlds Fair committee; and
that ''North Carolina brights'' be
brought conspicuously to the atten-
ton of all visitors from all nations
Of the earth.
Mr.. Woods recommends the es.
tablishment of Bureau of Tobac-
co statistics.
Commentator and praise-just
and deserved-is made of the South
ern Tobacco Journal, of which Mr..
Harmon is editor. It is recon-
mended as worthy of adoption as the
organ Of the tobacco trade of Nor tn
Carolina.
IN, G. Brights' are practically
unknown on the European markets
bus are known as eva. Brights.' y
This state Of affairs, Mr.. Wood as
sures US, is rapidly approaching its
end. This Tobacco Association
must accelerate this agency. British
markets, tenaciously conservative
are intrinsically just, and when We
prove that North Carolina furnishe:
the brights they will rectify -tht
} wrong done us.
; No other State has tobacco inter
ests of equal magnitude, so viii dis
tributed and so free from trusts ant
combines. The United States In
, ternal Revenue reports verify tn
statement that North Carolina ha
, more tobacco manufacturers, mo.
leaf dealers, more public warehouse
, for the sale Of leaf tobacco than an
5 other equal territory in the worlc
The State Legislature has been to
l ward in giving justice and equity
a There is one law that ought to b
i repealed, viz: the law imposing
a tax upon public warehouses for tn
| sale of leaf tobacco.
e Mr.. Wood concludes with an e
e oquent plea for united action in e1
: larging the business and securing t
e North Carolina her true position.

and Eloquent address,
Other Ners.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 5.-The
twenty-ffth annual encampment of
the G. A. r. met in informal ses-
sion this morning in the mammoth
hall that had been set apart for the
business deliberations of the veter-
ans.
All that one could do to make
the building attractive had been
done in the decorations which adorn
ed the interior in emblematic order.
At the head of the hall, over the
platform, was large G.. A. r.
badge, fanked on either side by
American flags and in the rear the
grand seal of the United States,
also set between flags. From the
ceiling hung clusters of
the flags of all the republics in the
world.
Despite the immensity of the hall
it was crowded to its utmost seating
capacity by the multitude of veterans
attacted by the mometous ques-
tions to be settled a: this encampment
of the order. 1t was fully under
stood that the race question might
be precipitated in the deliberations
at any moment ana become the SUBJ
jject of discussion, and this impend-
ing problem, together with the pre-
jected revision of the constitution,
combined to heighten the general in
terest in the proceedings.
A few minutes before the hour of
opening General Veazey and his
staff entered the hall and were es-
corted to the grand stand. The
appearance of the commander-in-
chief was the signal for generous
applause, and minute later
the two bands burst forth
| i'll an inspiring military air
in harmony with the martial scene.
Rapping the assemblage to order,
the commander-in-chief announced
the formal opening of the twenty
fifth annual encampment of the
G. A. R., and directed the adjutant
2 general to call the roll of the de-
partment.
Commander in Chief Veazey then
delivered his opening address. He
said: "Comrades, this is the silver
anniversary of a birth, not of a wed.

the bridegrooms, the youth Of the

WINSTON, N. c., Aug. 5.-A ire
mendous crowd went out to the ball
ground this evening halfway expec-
tant Of a defeat for the victorious
Winstons, for Washington City had
sent an aggregation of ball players
selected partly from Association re-
serves and partly from the Colum-
bia Athletic Club.
The game began amidst intense
excitement. Sands started the
crowd to yelling for Winston by
knocking home run in the first in
ming, bringing in Monte Lyston.
In the third inning Wright and

ington and tied the score, amid in
tense excitement. Winston 2,
Washington 2.
| Everyone was breathless until
Keeley next crossed the plate for
Winston in, the fourth inning and
McGann came along likewise in the
fifth.
Wells, for Washington, hit a
beauty and came in for home run
in an attempt to tie the score in the
sixth inning.
And that was the last that
Washington could do. McGann,
the wizard, got down to solid work
and retired the men, one, two and
three for the rest of the game with
the exception OF one.
In the eleventh the sluggers
slugged in mighty form and Kelley

Why Water Works WiH Pay.

GAS result of the action of the
city in securing a water works plant,
some Chattanooga parties who have
been talking of moving to Cleveland
have since the election decided to
buy property here and locate their
families here. We may now expect
to see Cleveland begin to grow, as
numbers Of people will be attracted
by our natural advantages who
would probably never have moved
to a town without water and fire
protection"
We clip the above item from the
Cleveland correspondence ofthe Chat

the numerous ways in which water
works will pay. Cleveland has re-
