Y GREAT DAY
CARR, SANOERLlN AND JARVIS
SPEAK TO THE DEMO-
CRITIC HOSTS

Mr.. Hardy Returns to the Fold,
Stronger Than Ever For Democratic
Victory.
There has been no larger crowd
in Goldsboro in ten years to hear
political discussion than that which
greeted Carr, Sandrelin and Jarvis
Saturday. All shades of political
opinion were represented, and the inn
mense concourse listened for four
and half hours to some of the best
speeches ever delivered here.
Mr.. Carr was introduced By Henry
Lee, Esq, in very felicitous speech,
as the next Governor of North Caro-
lima.
The man who supposed that De-
mocracy was in dying condition in
Wayne county ought to have been
here yesterday. Probably he was
here, and if SO, he departed sadder
perhaps, but wiser man.
Mr.. Carr was greeted with much
enthusiasm and made an exceedingly
strong speech, in which he demon
strated the correctness of the Demo
cratic position on the tariff, and that
there could be no real financial re-
form that did not carry with it the
reduction of the tariff. It was an
educational spec ch from an Alliance
standpoint.
He struck the key note when he
said the preliminary to all reform
was the defeat of the Republican
party, which he showed most con-
clusively to be the author of all the
legislation under which the agricu1-
tural classes are suffering. He
administered q we'll deserved re-
buke to the Third party e,nissa-ies
who denounce the Democrat party
misdoings for which the Republicans
are responsible.
Mr.. Carr made most favorable
impression on our people of all con-
ditions, and gave them many facts
and arguments which will bring
forth much fruit,
DR.. Sanderlin was next introduced
by Mr.Jos. E.Robinson, and for near
ly two hours he held the people by a
speech of great power, in which wit
and wisdom, eloquence and argu-
ment were most charmingly blended.
His speech was on high plane and
his discussion of the issuee gave evil
dence of high conception of the
duties of the citizen and the states
man, and was replete with every
grace of style and delivery.
lie showed how well the Democratic
party had managed the State gov
ernment, and how little reason there
was for q change. He touched upon
doctrinal matters and ridiculed the
voters who so industriously circulat.
ing that the tariff and force bill are
dead issues.
In mostIgraphic style he por.
trayed his feelings, when coming
home from the war, he was forced
at the first election in which he par.
ticipated, to walk to the polls be-
tween glittering lines of Fedora!
bayonets.
He quoted Henry's famous sent
ence that he knew of nc way OF
judging of the future but by the
past. If the Republican party had
done this great wrong and indignity
to the people of the South, we could
not but suppose that if it again OBJ
tained the power, those insults and
that degradation would be agair
visited upon us, and then in dead
earnest there would be seen ,s'deae
issues at the polls,
His speech had fine effect, ans
its results will be seen more full,
when the votes are counted.
Ex-Gov. Jarvis was introduced BY
Senator B. F. Aycock, and l'ade on
of the strongest and most pursuasiv
Of speeches. We have long regardet
Governor Jarvis as the best campaigl
speaker of the State, and yesterda
he eclipsed himself.
He reasoned nightly with th
man who was doubling as to hi
course in this election and with thos
who had Joined the Third party. III
