KrTcHrN sMrrEs SETTLE.
The Young Silver Knight Set the Pace
for Tommy.

Milton, n. c.. Oct. D. Special) IA
very large crowd from Caswell and Per-
son counties and from Halifax in Nir-
einia. assembled here to-day 20 hear
the Joint discussion between Kitchin
and Settle. Democratic and Republican
nominees for Congress in the Fifth dis
trict. Kitehin was gracefully intro
duced by Hon Robert J.. Walker, and
smoke for one hour and half, devotiug
most of the time to finance. His argu-
ment was clear, strong and convincing
and held the close attention OF all pre-
sent, even the negroes. lie held up
Republican record with the
the claim Of that party in this
State of being friends of sill
yer and their traitorous conduct since
the convention at ST. Louis with telling
effect. Finance, he said, was above
party and all friends of silver should
be patriotic and vote for it's restora-
ton. His arraignment of the party
for class legislation and favoring trusts
and combines, which fact was evident
from elimination of the antistrust
plank from the last Republican plat
form evoked great applause.
Settles reply was artful and dema-
gogic to a wonderful degree. No one
introduced him, and only about five
white men and the negroes appeared
to be in sympathy with him. Settle
actually claimed to be a friend of sill
yer with all his recorded votes in Con-
gress against it. He was for free silver
he said, but limited. He howled as
usual about Democratic promises I'M
kept. He read extracts from the Man
e, bo4
factory owners in North Carolina sai0,
who were for Mckinley.
Kitchin in his rejoinder made many
telling points which were enthusiast
cally cheered He told Settle that,
while he had defeated his opponents
so far, he would remind him that Sulli-
van, the pugilist went into the ring one
time too many, and predicted Settles
defeat as well as the downfall of gold
bugism. Kitchin's peroration was
an oratorical flight of great brill
lance and the entire crowd among
whom were many fair ladies would
and did cheer with great enthusiasm.
Settles, closing remarks consisted
largely in recital of threatbare gags
and jokes, which greatly delighted the
negroes. He said if he was Sullivan,
Kitchin must be Carbett; name he
seems to favor as his private secretary
a negro bears that title. Settle did not
take up all his time, and while he may
not be badly hacked, he evidently real
ICES that he has the greatest fight of
his life in this canvass. Kitchin is a
foeman worthy of his steel and will
defeat him if silver forces vote togeth-
err.
Col. John S. Cunningham, nominee
for the House from Person, was among
the prominent visitors present.

WooDARD's PROSPECTS BRIGHT.
Speeches From Him and Mr.. L. d. Win
ston in Warren.

Warrenton, N. c., Oct. 5.-(SpeciaD--
Hon. f. A.Woodard, Democratic candi-
date for Congress in this district, and
+. ID. Winston, Esq, of BERTHE county,
who withdrew as elector for this dis
trict in order to perfect the Democrat
ic-Populist fusion, made speeches at
four different points in this county
last week. Crowds eager to hear the
issues discussed meet them at every
appointment.
Mr.. Woodlands prospects for re-elec-
ton grow brighter each day. He has
what he Justly merits, the full conf
dence of the people. His constituency
recognizes that in him they will have
an able representative, with every vir-
tue that is Characteristic of high
minded Christian gentleman. Mr..
Woodland is intensely in earnest and is
making the strongest canvass he ever
made.
Mr.. Winston is putting facts and the
truth before the people in his strong,
pleasing manner. The enthusiasm for
silver which he creates wherever he
speaks is sickening gold bugs and
discouraging radicals. Mr.. Winston is
easily one of the strongest political
speakers in the State, and / only wish
it was possible for him to address the
people in every county in North Caro-
lima.
Watch old Warren, the people in this
county, black as well as white, are
seeking the truth and it may be safely
said that next November Warren coun-
ty will be found in the silver ranks

Cry.
Plymouth, n. c., Oct. 5.-(Special.)
1T was my pleasure Saturday to
hear the speeches of Capt. Thomas W.
Mason and Locke Craig, Esq, to an
earnest and enthusiastic audience at
Blount's Opera House, Roper, n. c.
Capt. Mason opened the political dis
cuss:on in a powerful speech of one
and one-half hours, maintaining that
reputation of which he has SO we'll
acquired of being one of the mos. Go
quent and telling political spaalyers in
the State.
MIR. Craig followed in speech Of two
hours duration, when, in the Judgment
OF all who heard him, places him as
the equal of any stump speaker in the
State. He possesses a high order of
oratory, which sweeps like a tornado,
that heroic, impassioned eloquence
which captures the imagination, with
a clear statement, compact and logical,
forcing convictions On ;he carts of all
that heard aim; that his utterances
were the result of honest convictions,
intersperced with numerous anecdotes,
which have telling effect 10 illustrate
his subjects.
The Democratic party of North Caro-
lima can well be proud of this bright
and brilliant young man, whose
speeches are doing the cause of free sill
YER so much good wherever they are
heard. He is truly the young giant of
the West, "upon whose shield there is
no strain, and in whose armor there
is no flaw"
