port a candidate for the Presidency
whose political views would be in an
tagonism with the views of ninety per
cent of the Republicans of the State,
is so Supremacy ridiculous that no one
imbued with the spirit of Republican
ism could for one moment entertain it.
But little less Objectionable is that
other suggestion that there should be
a mixed electoral ticket. To support
such a ticket would be the surrender
of principle both the Republicans and
the Populists, and which could be
neither justified nor defended by
either.
The Republicans in good faith
formed an alliance with the Populists
last year, for the purpose of effectlng
certain conditions. Both parties act
ed in good faith and the reforms
sought were conSummated. Republi-
cans are willing to keep the faith"
and to DO full and ample justice To
their allies; but when it comes to
the National ticket, where depends
the very existence of the Republican
party, and where the Populists can
have neither part nor lot, it is asking
but little for them 10 stand aside, and
say, go ON. brethren, we will stand
by you" 4 combination, fusion or
mixed electoral ticket, can do the
Populists no good. Why then should
that party. TO crafty u mere septi-
ment, insist on what might result in
the election of a Democratic Presi-
dent? We believe the Populists are
patriots. We believe that those lead
ers who have protited by coalition are
patriots They should not allow them
selves to be designated as narrow
minded and bigoted partisans, but
should rise up and do that which pa
triots ought to do.
As Republican, | say it is our duty
to be liberal yea. more than liberal
with the Populists in State and county
matters, but when il comes to Nation
al affairs, they should be equally lib
eral toward the Republicans. Such a
course on their part ensures success
so far as North Carolina is concerned;
a different one promises no good to
either Populists or Republicans.

For the past few days a very strong
tip has been circulated In sporting re-
sorts to the effect that Frank Erne,
the hrawny Buffalo boxer, would defeat
Dixon at the Seaside Athletic club to-
night. Just TOW this tip started can
be explained but In one way. and that
is by the presence OF dozen Buffalo
mans who have arrived in Town with
money to burn" 1t is true that Erne
has shown himself to be a remarkable
boxer, and at the same time terrific
hitter. This was exemplifed when he
met the great English light-weigtlt Jim
Perry, before the National Sporting
Club of London. England. whom he dis
posed of in four rounds.
Previous to his meeting with Perry
Erne WAS promised "A match with Fred
Johnson, the English feather weight
champion. but after the latter had seen
Erne perform he refused point blank to
take him on. Perry was at one time
matched with Jack McAuliffe but owing
to techntcality In the matter OF weight
the match fell through. That Erne has
a right to contest FOR the fca t
championship is taken from his record,
