RALEIGB'S BUDGET.
The Populists Indignant Mt the De.
mands of Negro OHice-SeeIxers.

RALEIGH, N. c.. November 4.-(Spe-
cial)=T. II. Chavasse, who was last
week dropped as passenger train con-
ductor on the Seaboard Airline, Is
given good position in the passenger
department
1t is the positive declaration that both
Senator Butler and Congressman Skin
aer are trying to lead the Populists into
the Republican party.
Some OF the Populists are very indig-
nant at the meeting of negroes here
last night. which adopted resolutions
that all candidates who wanted the
negro vote must sign a pledge 10 give
the negroes half the positions at dis
pcsal. Some Populists say they will put
up separate ticket rather than accept
such terms. and they cry out, mo more
fusion with the negroes"
The negroes are seeking to make II
appear they are independent, while they
are absolute slaves to the Republican
ticket. North Carolina Is, strange to
say the only State in the whole world
which has majority of white people in
which that majority does not rule.

The weakness OF the contention that
Italy is weary of the Triple Alliance, and
Is leaning more and more to a good un-
derstanding with England as respects ali
African and Mediterranean affairs, lies
In the fact that it is almost certain that
a good understanding, IL not a formal
treaty, between Great Britain and Italy
already exists. Until the Triple Alliance
interferes with this agreement or treaty
II is hardly likely that Italy will seek to
relinouish the advantages she derives
from the Dreibund.
In truth. Italy. owing to her naval
strength and the assistance she is capable
OF giving Great Britain In guarding the
great highway 10 the latter's Oriental
empire. can practically do what no other
European Power can. and that Is, COM
mand an alliance with Great Britain as
RESPECTS African and Mediterranean az
fairs whenever Il is desirable to her.

The New York Mail and Express says
that "the Generalization Of the Republl-
can party In Virginia is shown in the
very light vote polled but a deeper sig
nificance lies in the fact that its State
ticket made no showing in the black
counties. but developed nearly all it's
strength where the white population pre-
dominates
If this last statement be so, the sig
nifcance lies in the fact that the anti
Lamb faction of the Republican party
had a ring in the nose Of ''the man and
the brother" and hauled him awav from
the polls, as far as the State ticket was
