Correspondence Of The Evening Star
RALEIGH, n C., Nov. 26, 1892.
since the election the democrats in this state
have been in . state Of happiness not to be de-
scrfbed- AL over North Carolina there have
been celebrations Of the great victory, and the
leaders Of the third party have been burned in
sfisy or buried" deep in the ground
Even yet the exact vote is not known. The
Official returns are sent only to the secretary of
state, to be canvassed by the returning board,
which meets December l. All the returns are
rot IN Cleveland's plurality will be over
$1,000. 1t may reach a, 900.
Strange to say, the vote was light. and this
despite unu suai interest In the election aroused
toward the last. For months the campaign
vas hnsnid, but as time passed it became both
bitter and lively. Yet the voters did not all
turn out, and instead Of some $4,000 votes
Only about 2S5 900 were cast, il is asserted
There was another strange fact now known
ebout the election, namely, that the third party
Grew more votes from the republicans than It
proved q boomerang OTTO the republicans, who
Used 10 as q weapon
THE ALLIANCE GONE TO PIECES.
The alliance has gone all to pieces. Your
correspondent predicted three months ago that
and the third party would die together
They are dying now. The alliance newspapers
Are clAmoring for confederation for the order
n such desperate straits. L. l. Folks paper,
.elvsys rabid, Is now 9 pleader in this line, and
ssy. today;
Keep party out Of your alliance. Please re-
member this from now on And il any of YOU
have tried to drive, drag ooerce, bulldoze OF
IN any other way endeavored 10 use the alli-
Anee ~ wheel to your party machine il mat
tiers not what party. you have done the cause
harm. Now lets Offset that wrong by our hon.
est efforts to rebuild what We have helped 10
break down. So many of us have erred along
this line that the wrong cannot be righted By
either faction abusing, criticising or finding
fault with the other. This will only make the
matter worse. Let's all forgive and forget and
as brethren dwell together in unity"
The same paper says: 'We learn that number
OF alliance men have called q meeting to breal
mp the alliance. Rule ruin is not alliance
doctrine, neither is it the spirit of Christian
Not an unkind word have We for those who
voted ss democrats, republicans, prohibition
lists or peoples partymen, but we have a per.
feet contempt for any man who will use thu
order or the church through which to act the
traitor or the hypocrite. Let those who do MOI
care for the order leave il, and then il the,
want to fight it they can do SO without acting
the traitor"
SETTLE PROBABLY ELECTED.
The democrats elect Congressman in all tn,
districts save the fifth. To your correspondent
there appears no doubt that Settle, republican
wins there Williams, the democrat. IL not par
oeuiariy popular with the ultra democrats, q
they say he at one time tried 10 decker with III,
alliance. Settle says the Official returns shoy
M,075 votes for him and Ia, TAG for W illiams.
IL republicans we're sure they would carr,
