FROST In CAROLINA.
ELIAS CARR MUCH PLEASED WITH
The POLITICAL PROSPECTS.
The Third Party Rapidly Dwindiing
AwaJ-Preparations Complete for
Columbus Day-Fire.

Correspondence OF tho Richmond Dispatch.l
RALEIGH, y. C., October 3.-Tho FIRST frost OIL
tho season made Itself felt this morning. On
lowlands Il WAS quite heavy, but on uplsnds II
was barely perceptble. II Is somewhat earlier
than usual.
Mr. Elias Carr. tho Democrats nominee for
Governor, was here to-day. having come direct
from the section west Of tho Blue Ridge. Your
correspondent interviewed him Mr.. Carr said
that the Third party has no strength in that
part Of the state. Tue political status there is
unchanged ~ compared with former years. In
Polk county he was positively assured there IS
only one Ihlrd-party man. Mt. Carr went on 90
gay that the situation IN the other parts OF the
state improves daily. Men are certainly leaving
Tie Third party.
OPENLY LEAVING.
They do this openly at tho speakings when
over they turn out 10 hear Democratic speeches.
The lhirf-party leaders are using the most
powerful means 10 keep their followers away
from the Democrats. The bitterness Of some OF
these leaders exceeds nll belief. They have To-
dured many OF their followers 20 believe nothing
IN any newspaper save the Pfo9resslre fdf"fL
and the Special IHJ0rmer. These papers make
the most reckless statements, and devote space
90 abuse OF senator Vance and other men who
are held In highest esteem by every true Norm
Carolnlan.
40 COUNTY TICKET.
"A yet the Republicans have nominate1 no
county or legislative ticket in this county and II
does NOT appear ;hat they will do So The Demo
crat- appear TO feel quite sanguino about carry
ing the county. Many negroes state openly that
They Will not vote for tho Third party. Some say
they distrust that party.
Preparations are complete. the State super
intendent Of Public Instruction Informs me,

lumbus-Day" IN the public schools.

supposed probable. There will be over sixty
uoRts IN the parade.
At I o'clock this morning the residence Of Will
liam Mitchell, in this county seventeen miles
from here, was found 10 be on fre Mr.. Mitchell
l. so years old and lived In the house with a
