Invitation to O'FerraiI.

Congressman Charles T. O'Fer-
rail- will, we hope. attend the
State Convention. He will have
an opportunity of knowing what
Virginia Democrats think of Mr..
Hills attempt to punish him.
Congressman O'Ferrail, icing a
true Virginian, Indignantly e
sented Hills b%ulldozing tactics. As
a result. Senator Hill has under
taken to discipline Congressman
O'Fefrall and to defeat that gentle~
man, who has so faithfully repre-
sented his district in Congress. Mr..
Hill may run some New York city
ward meeting, bat he can't run
Virginia. We want the country
at large to know how Virginia re-
sents this impairment interference
in our local affairs by Senator
Hill. VIZ have not asked any ads
vice from him as to the choice of
our Coneressmen. Mr.. G'Ferrall's
constituents have not asked Mr..
Hills advice. Yea, verify. W.
prefer the lion to the fox. This
attempt to u Virginia affairs
from Washington is ar insult to
the manhood and intelligence Of
Virginia. It is proper to admin
lister a rebuke to Mr.. Hill, end
Virginia cannot do it in a better
way than by electing delegates te
the National Convention whose
first choice is Cleveland, but who
are willing to confer with theil
fellow Democrats from al
sections as to the best man. Lei
us show Mr.. Hill that he cannot
from his place in Washington o.
New York dictate to Virginia al
to the choice of their Congressman

ELIAS CARR FOR GOVERNOR.

The Democratic Convention on
the 9th ballot nominated Mr.. Elias
Carr, OF Edgecombe, TO-: Governor.
This is a good nomination and
will insure harmony in the party
and success in the campaign. Mr..
Carr is a farmer Of large means, OF
fine education and Of progressive
spirit: he is an Alliance man Of
conservative views-in full sympa-
thy with the farmers in their efforts
to better their condition and to
lift this large part Of u best peos
pie from the slough of despond into
which they have fallen by unfair
legislation and untoward circume
stances.
Mr.. Cars nomination is a just
tribute paid by the Democratic
party of North Carolina to the
moral courage and the unusual
bravery exhibited by him in COM
ing out publicly and condemning
the radical and revolutionary dec
larations Of the st. Louis Convens
lions, which were by some enthu>
siasts trying to be foisted upon the
Democratic party as a platform.
With Mr.. Carr as our standards
bearer, unless all signs fail, the ma
iority for the Democratic party in
the next election will be unpreces
dentedly large.
The farming element in North
Carolina may well feel proud 0.
this representative they have furn
ished the Democratic party for the
head of its ticket; in fact, every
true citizen of the State may wei
congratulate himself on the assur'
ance that for four years more the
high office Of Governor is to b.
filled with such a heightened, hon
orable, able and patriotic either
as is Mr.. Elias Carr.
Governor Holt and his friend
may be assured that although the
combination of untoward circum.
stances rendered it impolitic in tn
opinion of the convention, to nomi
nate him for Governor, that hi
failure of nomination in no wa,
affects the high opinion the goo
1eople of the State entertain TO

SEVERAL MISSING.
The List of Killed in the 500
Wreck at Barrett Likely to
Be Increased.
Considerable Bitterness Is Ex-
pressed Against the Rail-
road Company.

ELBOW LAKE, MIMI. Special, Aug. 3d.
An Inquest over the 500 wreck of Saturday
commenced at Barrett to-day. 1t has de-
veloped that the bridge was rotten, and 1t is
alleged that the company's agents reported
its unsafe condition, which has been the
talk of the Barrett people for some time.
Public feeling is running high against the
company, and the verdict of the %coroner's
jury is expected to lay the foundation for
the indictment of the officials. The engi-
neer of the ILL lated train testified that he
was running on schedule time, about thirty
miles an hour, having no order to the
contrary. On the same day at
noon he went over the same bridge
on the east-bound passenger train having
1Sdsrallthatth track Nas inn bad cQQal;
tion wing to the storm, which at Barrett
was in the nature of . cloudburst. The
coroner has ordered the raking OF swollen
Pomme de Terre river, as kilograms of In
| quiry point to several missing and not &C
lcounted for. The five unclai med bodies
| will remain unburied until the close OF The
inquest. Gustaf Bergquist. who lived at
Hoffman, has been buried. John Mcmillan.
roadmaster, is dying. All others who were
fatally injured were removed to Minneapo-
lis hospitals. The bridge will not be re-
paired for several days. as it is raining al
| most continuously and the whole country
IS under water. Regular trains are being
run at | 9th ends with an i~mprovised terry
| at tie scene of the disaster.

Brighter Than Diamonds.

Cured in fashionable Partisan life. in
which a brilliant and very wealthy
young lady from South America un-
dertook to outshine, the natives in
her wealth of precious stones. She
first appeared at 9 dance sparkling
with magnificent diamonds. At the
next dance, the Parisianladies, unwill-
ing to be outshone, had decked them
selves out in all their jewelry; but q
day after, they were again eclipsed by
the unheard- of wealth. of precious
stones worn by the South American
lady. At the fourth party the latter
came in once again, glittering like q
starry night; but to her intense morti-
fication mono Of the Partisan ladies
wore diamonds, but had as their on
~ ornament,them most graceful arrange
ments of flowers, which were univer.
sally voted to be infinitely superior
to the "stones."
