The annual meeting of the Mount Hol-
", Lumberton and Medford Railroad
Company was held at the Arcade hotel on
Saturday Much speculation had been
INDUCED in about this meeting, which
was the first since the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company secured control OF the
stock, and it was surmised that there
would be change in the organization.
This idea proved to be unfounded' as
the old board was reelected as follows :;
Henry 1. Budd, president; Col. Clifford
Stanley Sims, vice president; Isaac W..
Stokes, secretary and treasurer Henry
C. Risdon, Daniel Suffer, Franklin b.
Lewis and Edward Wills.
Charles A. Sims and Charles Bennett
acted as tellers. Over 1900 shares of
stock were voted. After the election din
ner was served to the directors and
guests: Henry 1. Budd, Col. Clifford
Stanley Sims, Isaac w. Stokes, Henry Q.
Risdon, Daniel Suffer. Franklin B. Lewis,

THEY WILL CONSOLIDATE.
Tho Report of the Majority of the shelter
Ing Arms Adopted.

AT meeting OF the board OF managers
Of the Sheltering Arms Hospital held
at the hospital last evening at o'clock,
there was an unusually large attendance.
For some time considerable interest had
beeh manifested in the movement 10 con-
solidate the Sheltering Arms Hospital
with the College OF Physicians and Sur
geOns. and the opinion Of the board was
divided on the question.
The report Of the majority. which was
IN favor Of the consolidation, was read.
This report was published In The Times
on May 18th.
The views embodied in the minority re-
port were then read. Following is the re-
port:
We oppose the dedication Of the Shell
tering Arms 10 any organization having
an object in any degree foreign 10 Its
original purpOse-that Of the broadest ana
most unlimited charity.
We believe that the board has been I'M
duly impressed with the apprehension OF
failure. an apprehension not justified. as
we think. by the experience OF the past
or the outlook Of the future.
We asked money from the community.
giving the assurance that IL the sum
collected was not sufficient 10 purchase a
house. IL should be invested and held by
the directors until the requisite amount
was realized.
As we view It. good faith demands that
we sell the house and return the money
70 the contributors This Is not true with
regard 70 the other assets, and we con-
cefe that they may be disposed Of by
those having the authority without refer
ence 10 the sources whence derived.

THE "BEFLKR" FOR PRIMARY. THE
RINGMASTEE FOR CONVENTION.

A correspondent Of the Dispatch. sign
ing himself 8. a. L., defends the action
Of the City Committee, in voting FOR
convention instead Of primary.
He says the "heeler" and the
hummer prefer a primary to a con-
veation. because they can bleed candi-
dates much more profusely in a primary
than in a convention.
This IS undoubtedly true. bat one as
familiar with ward meeting methods as
S. A. L. evidently is should know that
the "heeler" has nothing whatever 10 90
with determining the question whether
the candidate is chosen by a primary or
a convention. The "heeler' stands ready
with his leech for either occasion. though
he has no voice In determining which
process Will be offered 10 the uses Of his
PROPOSES. II IS the ring manager who
runs the machine When the ring mana
ger secures a convention, he packs the
ward meeting hall with his "heelers."
and shapes the convention through them
as he wishes It 20 be. In that case. the
"heeler' is forced TO content himself
with a gill Of blood. when he could have
got q pint at least from a primary. But
the ring manager will have accomplished
his aim. Re will have made his tool
and accomplice. the 'heeler" shape the
convention TO suit his purposes. and the
peoples will is wholly ignored
S. A. L. is perfectly right. The "heeler"
wants a primary. but his brother. lord
and master, the ring manager, wants
convention.
S. A L. quotes from The Times Of the
18th a statement that public sentiment
in Richmond is in favor Of a convention
10 nominate candidates for the Legisla-
ture. This was a statement Of a local
reporter in the local columns, and not an
expression Of editorial opinion at all.
and. as events have shown, our reporter
was simply mistaken about the matter.

he would soon reach New York, and there

country In the International Postal
Union, he stepped around the lobby 10
deposit his letter. his mind teem!ng with
the thoughts of his native land. his home
and his family. The letter dropped. He
remembers that his purse containing one
hundred and nifty dollars. nearly an gold.
the fruit Of honest effort for many
months, had been left lying upon the
shelf near the stamp window. and re-
turning found II gone. His distress was
pitiable when he discovered his loss. The
stamp clerk remembered that "a c0lored
man came 20 the stamp window imme-

Stamps for registered letter By the

But. although this right Is conceded 20
them. II is their manifest duty 10 decide
on such & manner Of electing delegates
as the people. who elected them, desire.
and II the Democracy OF Richmond have
ever expressed a desire about anything.
they certainly have said that they now
desire a primary. The Times on Sunday
published a list Of about 20 names-which
with a little exertion could have been In
creased 10 5.000-0f all classes Of citizens.
declaring themselves for a primary. and
this list should be sufficient TO snow the
committee what is the peoples wish. and
II they are wise. and act in accordance
with what IS right. they will promptly
accede to the popular demand.
While the committee have no right 10
appoint delegates. the Democracy OF
Richmond will doubtless feel that should
the resolution for a convention be ad-
hered 70. Il will virtually amount 10 an
appointment, since. whether the charge
be true or not, the impression that II q

will carefully consider the matter, and act
as committeeman solicitous OF doing their

and as Democrats looking only 70 the
welfare Of the party. rather than as OBJ
stinate men determined on insisting upon
what they consider their Drerogatlves
