POLITICS IN BLADEN.

Mr.. r.. S. White, member of the Legis-
lature from Bladen, is in the city. Mr..
White says man can pay his money
and take his choice of politics in his
county. There are enough different
kinds of politics there to suit the
most fastidious. There are straight
Democrats, Republicans and Populist.
There are fusion factions in each party,
some wanting to fuse one way and
some another A majority of the Popu-
lists voted to fuse with the Republicans
then the minority kicked. A ma
Jority of the Democrats recommended
a Populist for State Senator, and some
Democrats are kicking. The Republi-
cans desire fusion with the Populists,
but the Populists want the earth as a
condition of fusion with any body or
any party.

Seven thousand people is the estimate
of the crowd which heard Iillman here
to-day. He spoke one hour and made
n strong speech 1t was well received
and is calculated to harmonic all the
silver forces. He advised the Popu-
lists not to vote for a legislator who
would vote for a Republican member
to Congress, and advised Democrats
and Populists to get together on State
and legislative tickets. He said after
this election there would be no Popu-
list party, as the Democrats had re-
turned to old Jeffersonian Democracy
and the better element of the Popu-
lists were returning to the old Demo-
cratic party. He eulogized Vance and
scored Ransom.
Mounted marshalls, brass bands and
shooting cannon aided in making this
truly a big day for Kinston. Fred.

date for Congress, in this district,

The Pitchfork Senator Talked Democ-

Goldsboro. n. c., Sept. 24.-(SpeciaD
Senator TilIman, of Pitchforz fame,
spoke at the Opera house tonight to
a packed audience, many ladies being
present. His speech lasted for fifty
minutes, and was on pure Democracy,
with the combination attachment. His
abuse of Cleveland, Hill and the East
ern Democracy was terrible, and while
it pleased few, the majority of the
audience did not seem to relish it.
He considered the present political
state of affairs in North Carolina "a
genuine curiosity" But he gave coun-
sci how to combat it, not by abuse, but
to talk kindly and reason with those
who had strayed off from the Demo-
cratic fold into the Populist camp, and
thereby elect Bryan on a 16 to ! plat
form or bust.

of John Ross, professional penman and

One night he arose and secured the
money and skipped out. A few days la
ter he was located and arrested in Macon
and brought to this place and has re-
manned in jail since. He plead guilty and
Judge Hart was light on him, SIS and cost
or nine months.

which first struck the city on factory hill
going east, blowing down several small
houses and chimneys and laying fences

inches.

later was captured by Deputy Sheriff

Carrying out the idea we
began yesterday, we would
suggest that if you are a
little man, no bigger than a
large boy-that is, a boy
anywhere from IA to 10
you really ought to take a
peep at our windows.
They're full of suits for big
boys, and the small men of
Savannah are sure to make
a charge upon them. You
won't wonder at it, but will
be certain to fall in line when
