Gratis on the Executive Committee

Seven Republicans and Seven Demo.
Gratis on the Executive Committee
The meeting of the Peoples party
in this city last Saturday practically
insures the nomination of full
State ticket and there are abundant
surface indications of probable
coalition with the Republicans.
The executive committee elected
hera Saturday is composed of seven
Democrats and seven Republicans.
Mr.. w. A. Lowry, tobacco man
ufacturer and farmer, of Kerners
vile, is the only member of the com
mittee that has ever held any politi-
cal Office of prominence. He is
Republican and represented Forsyth
in the State Legislature several
years ago.
Mr.. Nelson, Hine, of Broadway
township, is a successful farmer and
his political faith heretofore has been
Republican. He is now strong
Allianceman and believes in the
Third party.
j. A, Lowery, of Bellows Creek, is
a Republican, good farmer, but
has never been honored with an
office.
W. L. league, of Abbott's Creek,
who was chairman of Saturdays
convention, is salesman at the
Alliance store. He has formerly
affiliated with the Republicans, has
never held any office, but his friends
say that he wants one.
A. A. Crater, of South Fork. is
good farmer and has been what they
term good Republican. He has
never held any Office, but is strong
advocate of the Peoples party.

publican and a successful farmer.
T J. Ketner. of Lewisvllle, who
made a big speech before the con
vention, is farmer and also runs a
saw mill. He was once upon time
what he termed a full pledged DEM
ocrat-but it is not SO now.
R. B. Lineback, the man who was
put on from Viena township, is a
large farmer. A friend of his said
this morning that he could not help
believing that Lineback was too
good Democrat to allow the Third
party advocates lead him astray.
R. B. Flynt. of Old Town. is a
successful farmer and an eX-Demo-
crat.
Emanuel Fisher, of Clemmons-
| vile, was once upon a time "a Re-
publican. He is farmer as well as
an exhorter; his religious faith be-
ing Moravian.
W. 81. Cox, of Middle Fork and Geo
| Porter, of Bethania, are both farmers
and ex-Democrats. The latter has
been a magistrate.
James Butner, of Old Richmond, is
| a carpenter and runs a threshlng
! machine. He was at one time called
| Democrat.
J. F. Jarvis, of Winston, is me-
| chanic and has been voting with the
| Democrats.
A strong allianceman and a level
headed farmer who was here today
expressed surprise this morning at
the action of the convention. He
said that he was not here and did
not propose to take any part IN the
Peoples Party measures.
The convention adjourned without
appointing a time for meeting to
nominate a county ticket. This will
be left to the executive committee
which has not yet organized.

of the recent Baptist Sunday School
Convention at Mount Airy was the

There is no point more accessible or
that can furnish better corps of
instructors than Winston-Salem and
the committae could not do wiser
thing than to hold this institution in

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 auctioneering find
