Webb and Elijah Long for county COM
missioners.
Alamance Democrats have rarely
had so large or so enthusiastic a con
vention. They are in excellent shape.
Mr.. w. II. Carroll, who received fhe
next highest vote for the legislature,
was called and responded in a ringing
speech, in which he challenged any
one to do more for the election of the
ticket than he.
The Indifference and dependency
which has broOoded over the party in
the county, as a result of the defeat
two years ago and the attitude of the
National administration. have been
dissipated by recent events.
The Bryan, Cy. Watson and Kitchin
club of Burlington numbers 210, and
new names are being constantly en-
rolled.
The schools of Burlington have open
ed well. Prof. Garland has succeeded
Prof. FOnville. The Academy has the
best opening it has had for years. The
head master, Prof. Separk, has made
fine impression. He and his corps
of teachers are doing excellent work,
and the future of the school is bright

this morning on the steam launch Gel
eron The trip, with the exception of
stop at Bemus Point, was without incl
dent At that place the crowds gather
ed about the dock and shook hands
with the Democratic nominee. Mr.
Bryan, for about the first time during
the entire trip did not get out among
the crowd and shake hands. When
Chatauqua, m. Y, was reached, the
dock was crowded to its capacity and
there were cheers and applause as the
boat approached the landing.
The Bryan party stopped at Prospect
Park, in Chatauqua, and, in response to
the calls of the people gathered there,
he made few appropriate remarks
devoid of political flavor.
From Chatauqua, the trip ON the
Lake was continued to Mayville. The
balcony of the Mayville Hotel had been
decorated with flags, and from it Mr..
Bryan made short speech He allud-
ed happily to the residence of Judge Al
bion Tourgee in that village. Most of
the four hundred people displayed
punches of golden rod on their coats
and hats, and had their teams decorat-
ed with flowers. After Mr.. Bryan had
finished, man proposed three cheers
for Mckinley, which were given. New
ertheless, the crowd cheered Bryan
very heartily as he drove away to the
music of the village band.
Mr. Bryan's speech at Mayville was
as follows:
