THE STATE NORMAL AND IN

Elsewhere in this paper will be
found some interesting facts
about the faculty of the State
Normal and Industrial school at
Greensboro. 1t will be readily
seen that President McIver and
the board of directors have been
very successful in securing thor
oughly trained and experienced
teachers for every department of
the institution.
As this is the first effort on the
part of the State for the higher
education of wemell, it will be
watched with peculiar interest.

THE SENTINEL PREDICTS that
r. B. Glenn and G. B. Aycock,
the electors at large, will make
the greatest campaign this year
in the history of North Carolina
politics. The State convention
could not have done better than
to select these two peerless cam
paigners. THE SENTINEL would
take pleasure in reproducing all
the complimentary remarks
about our townsman, Hon. r. B.
Glenn in this connection, but
they are too numerous.

BLAINE HAS MADE HIS DENIAL.
So He Says, According to Washing

so He Says, According to Washing
ton Correspondent.
CINCINNATI, May 24-The Enquirer
printed yesterday morning the fol
lowing despatch from it's Washington
correspondent which, in view of the
warm social relations between Mr..
Blaine and Mr.. John R. Mclean, NAV
be considered significant:
WASHINGTON, May 22.-The con-
vention to be held in Minneapolis on
the 7th day of next June will nomi-
nate James G. Blaine for the office of
President of the United States.
This information is given in adj
vance because the mission of the
Enquirer is to print the news. 1t is
not based on street gossip or curb
stone conference. 1t is a living and
indisputable fact.
Ever since the name of Blaine has
been connected with the nomination,
its ratification required only his
assent. Up to within forty-eight
hours ago this was withheld. 1t is
no longer withheld. The situation
has reached the crisis. Mr. Blaine
has spoken to this extent: 81 will
do nothing to prevent my nomina-
ton. | have made my last denial"
And | can say likewise, that If NOM
mated, Mr. Blaine will make the race.
He realizes that the Republican.
party will need it's best effort to win
the election.
The assurances 20 parsistently
made that his own name is stronger
than any other have had their weight.
Yielding every consideration to party
welfare, he is in the hands of the dele
gates. He will neither seek the NOM
nation nor run away from it. If he
is called upon to lead he throws the
magic OF his name and fame to the
foremost front.

any person from bringing in free Of

Mr.. Cummings introduced bill to
cover the objections made by the
petitioners.

With the rest of the Soutber

With the rest of the Southern
States practically solid for Cleve-
lands denomination, it will not
matter much if the Alliance in South
Carolina shall allow itself to be
arrayed against him under the leader
ship ofsuch men as Irby and Till
man. There is good reason to
believe that opposition of that kind
will make him more electoral votes
in the doubtful Northern and West
ern States than he would lose here.

FOR JUDGE NINTH DISTRICT:
GEORGE A. SHUFORD,
of Buncombe.
THE STATE CONVENTION.

- THE STATE CONVENTION.
Now that the Democratic con
vention is over we can begin to
study ther results. All was doubt
and uncertainty before the as
sem bling of the convention.
Col. Thos. M. Holt had the
largest following for Governor,
and but for the candidacy of J !.
S. Carr would have been nomi-
mated on the first ballot. Ninety
seven of his 157 votes would
have made Holt the next Gov
ernor of North Carolina, and if
his name had not been before the
convention almost his entire sup
port would have been cast for
Holt.
There were not many st. Louis
demanders in the convention but
Sanderlin was the candidate of
the Alliance wing. While the
Butler conference is still a mys-
terry, it is understood that it en-
dorsed Sanderlin for Governor.
When it became apparent that
Holt could not be nominated,
his strength went to Elias Carr,
and nominated him. Mr.. Carr,
the nominee, was not a candidate
and after his name had been
placed before the convention, at
his request, some of his friends
stated that he was not a candi-
date and did not ask the support
of anybody. If Mr.. Carr, the
candidate, had taken the same
position, or if his campaign had
been thus managed, in the event
of Hollis defeat, it might have
been julie Carr, the nominee, but |
of all sad words
julie Carr beat Holt, and Hollis
friends beat julie Carr with Elias
Carr.
The platform is broad enough
for all Democrats. Of course
all Democrats are not expected
to shape their individual opin-
ions iii every detail according to
the platform adopted at Raleigh,
but, as Governor Jarvis said of
the issues of the day, there are
enough good things in it upon
which all can agree. The great
principles of the Democratic par
ty are embodied in the platform
and there is nothing revolution
airy or dangerousin thoseplanks
that may be considered as con-
cessions to the Alliance wing. 1t
is vastly different from the st.
Eonis platform and THE SENTI-
MEL will hereafter from time to
time point out these differences.
The entire ticket is composed
Of men OF unquestionable Democ-
racy. Notwithstanding that it
was the largest convention ever
held in Raleigh and that there I
