THIRD PARTY CANDIDATES.
Jerry Simpson Thinks the Ticket viii
Be Weaver and Polk.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The echo
es of the st. Louis convention have
scarcely died away ere the rank and
file of the allied industrial organiza-
tions have begun to discuss the pos
sible presidential candidates of the
national peoples party.
A convention for the nomination
of candidates for president and vice
president will not be held until July
4th, at Omaha, and as both of the
other leading parties will have made
their nominations by that time the
peoples party is in "a position to
make the strongest possible nomina
tions for the purpose of carrying
doubtful states which their organ
izations have in the past manifested
the greatest strength.
General James B. Weaver, of Iowa
once candidate of the greenback
party for president of the United
States; Hon L. l.. Polk. now presi-
dent of the National Farmers Al
lance, Of North Carolina; Hon Ig-
natius Donnelly, of Minnesota; Unit
ed States Senator Leland Stanford
of California; T. V. Powderly, grand
master of the Knights of Labor;
Hon. Alsop G. Streeter, of Illinois,
late candidate of the Farmers Mutt
ual Benevolent Associa tion for Unit
ed States Senator from Illinois, are
a few of those now being discussed
as possible presidential and vice
presidential candidates of the peo-
pies party.
Gin my opinion. said Representa-
tive Jerry Simpson, of Kansas, to-
day, General Weaver, of Iowa, is
most likely to be the peoples party
candidate for the presidency; at any
rate he has up to this time been the
man most discussed in that connec-
ton. But / would not be surprised
if sentiment in favor of Ignatius Don
nelly assumed formidable proper
tions. He developed great strength
out at st. Louis, and the preamble
to the platform, which was written
by him, is in my opinion, one OF the
most vigorous and, at the same time,
the most classic production of mod
ern literature. l think there is no
question but that President Polk, OF
the Farmers Alliance, will be the can
didate for vice-president."

FIRE At THE r. IS. DEPOT.
One Passenger Coach Completely Dc
struyed.


Considers bile excitement was crea
ted AT IL O'clock Sunday when the
announcement was made that sever
Ill ars were on fire at the Roanoke
& Southern depot.
a large crowd soon gathered at
the scene when il was discovered
that the passenger and baggage
coach was in flames near the trestie.
When it first caught the car was
standing near the depot but through
the kindness of bystanders it was
pushed down the track In order to
save the other box ears. One, how
ever. did ignite from the flames but
was put out.
Both fire companies responded to
the call, but on account of there
being only one hydrant the Salem
engine was not put III operation.
The fire was not extinguished I'M
til the flames had Quilted the wooden
part of the ear. The wheels and
other machinery can be utilized 1t Is
thought
The loss of the car, which costs
50 800, falls on the Roanoke and
Southern company as the road and
equipments will net be turned over
to the Norfolk & Western before to-
morrow.

Seagle is Going Away.
From the Shelby Aurora

From the Shelby Aurora |
Last Saturday both Capt. Seagle
and the Superintendent of the Cape
Fear & Yadkin Valley railroad re-
ceived letters from Charles Seagle,
written from New Orleans in which
he said he was just taking a boat for
foreign country, but did not say
where To both he said that he had
taken some of the Compa1y's money
as he had gotten into difficulty and
was obliged to leave, but that it
would be returned in full inside oil
twelve months. There is still much
mystery surrounding the case
Whether he really thought he had
killed a man or whether the shooting
of which he spoke last week was
merely a blind is not yetfully known
The general opinion is that there is
some other difficulty still back of it,
all or else the youngman has become
mentally unbalanced and is lahorine
under a hallucination. The books
were all straight up to the time b,
left. Capt. Seagle will at once max,
good to the Co mpany the money
taken by Charles on the eve of his de
parture.

Foar Chicken Thieves Arrested and
Lodged in Jail,

Chicken thieves are beginning to
''bob up" somewhat numerous. For
several days the citizens of Center
vile have been on the alert for guilty
parties. Yesterday they were sue
cessful in their efforts by the capture
of Will Washington and Grant
Moore, both colored. Thew were
given a preliminary hearing before
a Magistrate and bound over to
court The charge against them was
for the theft of seventy five fowls and
the evidence was convincing
Another negro named Will Brown
was arrested last night by officer
Copper, upon the charge of lifting two
fowls from the wagon of a country
man at Farmers Warehouse.
Last night about 1870 O'Clock
Monroe Thomas, a black negro oil
some 80 years was nabbed in the
chicken house of Mr.. g. r. Quincy at
the Hotel Quincy, after having killed
and bagged five of the birds. For
some days Mr.. Quincy has been miss.
ing chickens from the coop and had
placed watchmen in the back ground
to catch, the thief if possible. One or
| two nights the watchmen have
| watched in vain. However last even
| in as the guests were assembled in
the dining room and lobby and every.
thing was quiet around the back lot
the thief crept up and with accustom
ed stealthiness began the work
He caught one, chopped off his head
and bagged HIM. The procedure
went on until the fifth, when the two
employees of the Hotel, who were
watching, grabbed their man anG
| belt him fast. He fought like a Wes
terner and but for timely aid thai
came at their alarm, would have es
| capped. Several of the guests anG
employees OF the Hotel ran out ane
cornered the negro; policeman was
called, the handouts were admins
tered and to-day, the negro thief il
/ in iail.

Forsyth's Mistake.

The North Wilkesboro News of this
week says: Winston is hummer,
but she needs that new court house
badly. IF the old one was out to one
side so it would't be so conspicuous,
it would be different, but, as it is right
IN the heart of thescity, and is one
of the first things to attract atten-
ton. Forsyth made a mistake when
she refused to build a new court
house. Winston is something to be
proud of, and pays the biggest part
of the county aud State tax.

The success Of Watt & Webb, D

The success of Watt & Webb, pro-
prietors of the Orinoco Warehouse, is
wonderful, They have only been in
business for a little more than one
year, and in that time have built up
the largest patronage that any house
in the State enjoys. This success is
due to hard work on part of the pro-
prietors and their ass ,ciates to their
splendid accommodations, to the fact
that Webb, the best auctioneer in the
world, does his own auctioneerihg find
to other things that farmers and will
