MR. KITCHIN'S CANVASS.

Halifax county, all Eastern Carolina,
and in TACT the whole State is proud OF
the brilliant canvass which Mr.. w. w.
Kitchin is making for Democracy in
the Fifth district. Mr.. Settle, his oppO-
nent, spoke In generous terms OF Mr..
Kitchln in Washington few days, ago
as reported in Saturdays Post.
The Durham editor for the News &
Observer wrote last Saturday as follows +:
Notwithstanding the notice was
short and the rain which at times fell
in torrents a large crowd greeted w.
w. Kitchin. Everybody knows who
Mr.. Kltchin is, that he is the popular
candidate of the Democratic party for
Congress in the Fifth district. He has
been in the western part OF the district
and has made many friends. On his
way home it was necessary Tor him to
spend a night in Durham and as the
people were anxious to hear him talk
free silver and Democracy, an appoint
ment was made for him. But for the
inclement weather the court house
would have been packed. A large
crowd was there any way and gave Mr..
Kltchln an enthusiastic greeting.
"He was presented to the audience
by H. A. Foushee, chairman of the
Democratic county committee, in an
appropriate speech. For an hour or
more this young champion OF Democ-
racy and free silver pleaded most elo-
quently with the people to rally around
the standard of the peoples rights and
do their full duty in November next.
He made a most favorable Impression,
and all who heard him went to their
homes more determined than ever to
do their full duty in this contest"

THE CAMPAIGN.

The political campaign in North Car
olIina is becoming interesting, or would
If the democrats could settle down dead
sure on what they are expected to do.
The gube=natorial candidates and the
candidates for Congress from the va
rious districts, together with other
speakers, have gone into the field and
are beginning to make it lively.
A few days ago we heard very in
telligent gentleman of Norfolk making
some observations on the North Carroll
ma campaign, and among other things
he said that the Democratic party has
a most excellent and able CORDS of speak
ers on the stump.
It is even true. Neither the Repub-
llcans nor the Populists can match the
Democratic speakers now before the
people. The speakers now in the field
are able and are discussing national
and State interests with power seldom
equalled in any campaign.
Added to these the local speakers in
the various counties will soon add con-
siderable strength and all told 1t now
promises to be one of the most interest
ing campaigns we have had ior years.

REMOVE THE DOUBT.

Mr.. ED1roR.-In your recent edito-
rial, "Let us Line up" you sounded
the right key. It is certainly time to
line up. Never was there political
campaign in which certainty of action
was more necessary. Never was there
campaign in which the enemy was
more determined and better organized.
Hope alone will not WIN. Work in
sp1red by hope only can triumph.
Hesitation and doubt never won vic
tory. Soldiers can not and will not
fight until they know the enemy to
fight. Are the Democrats to make a
fight? Is it worth their while? If so,
let us know how and whom to fight.
If we are to judge from the newspapers,
time only serves to settle the night OF
doubt and darkness thicker and thicker
around us.
If we fuse on the electoral ticket
| with the Popu1lsts, our speeches, our
arguments, our whole plan of work
will be different than if we are to fight
a Populist or Populist and Republi-
can fusion ticket.
Every Democrat In this contest
should be campaigner. Every Dem
ocrat has an interest in it. Every pru-
dent Democrat can help the cause.
Every good Democrat desires to help
it. The most effective work can be
done in our fields, at our places Of bus
mess, in our homes, by the road side,
face to face with our neighbor.
Our people should be armed with wise
arguments and not bitter denuncia-
tons. They want their neighbors to
vote with them. They desire to con-
vince them. But how can they ap-
proach them-what appeals can they
make? Our leaders seem to delay
seem not to know what Is best.
Then how can our voters-our lay
workers know the best? Must we ap-
peal to our neighbors to vote for Bryan
and Watson Or to vote for Bryan and
Sewall? Or shall we appeal to our
more stubborn friends on either side
the of-the-roaders" vote
for the fusion ticket? Shall we per-
suade them that every patriot and sin
cere silver advocate ought to vote for
Bryan and Sewall against Bryan and
Watson and Mckinley and Hobart?
What must we do? Nobody can tell
us but Mr.. Manly and his committee.
Why don't they tell usY Why keep
us longer in suspense? Why continue
to dicker and daily with the Populist |
committee? If we want to fuse with |
the Popullsts, then let Mr.. Manly ask
their committee whether they will fuse
or not. If they say yes, then let us
fuse and go to work. If they say no,
then let us fight single handed. How
long time will it taken Mr.. Manly to
ask Mr.. Aver? They are both In Ra-
leigh. Five minutes walk and dozen
words would settle the m after one way
or another.
The committee cannot elect the
ticket. The tens of thousands
who have never even taken a peep into
the elmer CIRCLE" carry elections.
These tens OF thousands are asking
themselves and each other daily, what
are we going to do? There comes no
answer. Doubt, delay.
Now, really, are we going to fuse or
not? Let the committee tell us.
Some OF US want fusion and some
OF us don't want it, but all of as quazt
to kmow achether ave are going to haze
1t or not.

SOUND MONEY DEMOCRATS.

Last week there was held remarka
BILE convention in Indianapolis. It was
a convention of persons who hitherto
have supported the regular Democratic
ticket, but who were unwilling to vote
for free silver and the candidates nomi.
mated at Chicago. It was remarka-
BILE convention because in it were some
very wise and levelheaded men, and
men who heretofore have been regard
ed as patriotic.
The convention nominated Senator
Palmer of Illinois for President and
General Buckner of Kentucky for Vice
President. President Cleveland wac
urged to accept the nomination tor
President by these sound money Demo
Gratis, but he refused to allow his name
to go before the convention. The per
sonnet of the convention was such as to
command the respect of the country,
though most Democrats think their
zeal instructed.
10 be sure, the men who favor the
gold standard ought to be credited with
honesty in their convictions, and there
is no reason for charging them with
anything less; but when the majority
OF the Democratic party spoke at Chi
cago, made platform and nominated
candidates On that platform, we believe
the minority ought to have yielded to
the majority and fought together for
what all regarded as common inter-
ests, even though there we're points OF
disagreement between those who favor
ed the gold standard and those who ia
vored free silver.
1t seems very evident that the new
nominations made by these gold stand
ard Democrats can amount to nothino
In the way of polling votes. They do
not hope to do that. They know that
their movement will weaken the silver
forces and will therefore initiate against
Mr.. Bryan's election and will 1nure to
McKinley's advantage.
If this is what these gentlemen held
their convention for we think the
straightforward thing for them to do |
would have been to vote straight out |
for Mckinley and their financial con-
victions.
We think this would have been the
more manly course. However bright
the democratic prospects haye seemed |
since the Chicago convention, there
can be no doubt that this action of the
gold standard Democrats makes the sit |
uation somewhat complex, and it may
possibly be the means of electing Nc
Klnley. If this should be the event of |
it all, those Democrats who have thus
prepared the way for the Republican
victory surely will feel deep humilia-
ton at this fatal stab they have given
to the party to which they have chung |
so long.

Lady Annabel motioned for Walter to
assist her to the carriage. He did so.
folding his arm carefully around her to
steady her faltering steps, and yet 1t
was the Annabel Marston he had taught
himself to abhor and despise. She
smiled mournfully at his assiduous care
for her, and said, family:
!. Go home with me, Walter, and you
shall know the secret of the mournful
story. Perchance you may feel more
sympathy with your fathers destroyer
than you have believed possible"
Walter took the seat beside her, and
though not another word was spoken,
never removed his eyes from the wan,
deathly face that lay back YEARLY
against the cushions. Was this the
proud, stately, admired woman before
whom nobility and genius bowed in
homage? that Lady Annabel whose per-
lection and superiority shamed even
the virtuous? the woman who had de-
liberately deceived a loving, trusting
heart, sold herself for dross, dipped her
fair hands in crime? No wonder Wal
ter walked as in a dream when he fol-
lowed up the polished staircase to the
luxurious, elegant DON of Lady Ann
abel.
Eleanor's pale face just looked in a
moment, and was vanishing, when her
mother called her.
Come in, my love; I need you. Take
away my hat and cloak, and bring my
cordial, without calling Claudine."
The affectionate daughter complied,
gently removing the bonnet and strok-
ing fondly the glossy ebony hair. Lady
Annabel rested a few moments after
drinking the cordial, and then said,
calmly:
"Sit down here by my side, my chill
dren, and I will relate the humiliating
story, which my poor Eleanor has heard
before, and scarcely yet recovered from
the shock. I was brought up at my
grandfather's, for my mother died at
my birth, and my father lived only two
years after her. My earliest remem-
brances are of the childish terror with
which regarded my fathers sister, the
Hon. PAMELA Marston, and of the pas
sionate love lavished upon the only be-
ing who cared for me, my Aunt Marcia
Wellesford, my mothers eldest sister.
A little later came an intense hatred
of my beautiful cousin Flora, the es-
pecial pet and pride of the Marstons.
My father married against the wishes
of his family, and from the moment he
brought his bride to his fathers house,
my mother was the object Of his haugh-
ty sisters dislike and persecution. I
know this no better now than l realized
it then; for the enmity bestowed upon
the mother was not buried in her cof-
fin, but survived to torment me.
