THEY ARE COMING HOME
CHATHAM P0PULIS1S WILL NOT HELP
NEGROlZE THE STATE.
The Primaries in Parts Of Chatham were Poorly
Attended and the Popuists are Coming
Back to the Democratic Home.

Mr.. w. Fl. Miller who lives near the
Chatham line, adjoining the Harrington
Mills township, says that the Populists
held their primary at Fearington's last
Saturday. Two years ago there was .
big attendance-more than a hundred be-
ing present and full of enthusiasm. This
year only 80 were present and fully half
of them are so disgusted that they say
if there Is fusion with the Republican
party they will join the Democratic
party Some of the 30 went over to tn"
Democrats and were appointed delegates
to the Democratic county convention ut
Pittsboro.
Il was Il populist two years ago." said
Mr.. Mills. Il believe still in the reforms
/ believed in them, but / have quit the
party because cannot stand this negro
business. 1t beats anything | ever saw.
| couldn't stand it. AS long as the
Popuists stood for principle | was Il
Populist, but when they stick to this
negro fusion business | leave them. And
the people are all leaving that party.
Chatham will go Democratic-clea out
of hollow"
Asked about Jenkins, the Fusion Uom-
nee for Congress. Mr.. Mills said: "Jen-
kins is very popular have known him
since he was boy, and he would have
run we'll if he had not got into bad COM
pany. But when he got mixed up with
Everett Bryan he lost friends. The peo-
pie won't stand negroism.'
Mr. Mills gave the names of POpulists
who have like him become disgusted
with negroism and will vote with the
Democrats. Mr. Mills is a farmer one
of that solid class upon which the world
depends. I'd rather trust his opinion
than that of any politician.

through Raleigh yesterday.
But the capital city was not the only
one thus honored. The regiment literally
split the State wide open, going from
one end of it to the other.
1t was a great day in Negrodom. Early
in the forenoon negroes began to gather
around the union depot, making anious
inquiries as to when Col Young's train
would arrive. They We're told it would
not be here until the afternoon. but
many of them seemed to doubt it and
continued to gather in little knots about
the car shed and along thefside tracks

original number. AS the afternoon adj
vanced they continued to gather flock

principally women and children-stood
along the main track near the water
tank.
They went there instead of stopping

CUSTODY OF TWO CHILDREN.
A Habeas Corpus Case Heard Yesterday
by Judge Montgomery.

10y Judge Montgomery.
Judge Montgomery, of the Supreme
court, yesterday afternoon heard Il
habeas corpus case in which a father,
Peyton III. Smith Captain of Company
III. Third North Carolina regiment COLI,
brings suit for the possession of his two
children, Bessie and William.
The facts in the case are about as
follows: In 1887 Peyton Smith. res
taurant keeper Mt Durham and Maggie
Smith, a mulatto girl, married They
lived together six years and three chill
dren We're born to them. Then another
coon, w. A. Cole, a route agent in the
railway mail service, came between
them; there was separation. Maggie
kept the youngest child, Eliza. and
Peyton the two oldest, Bessie and Will
Ham,
The two children in peyton's charge
were sent to his mother at Kittrell. Here
their mother visited them twice a year.
During the month of August she went
there and, she alleges, found them ragged
and dirty and not properly cared for
Hence she took them home and has
since kept them.
The father, though, asks the court
to take them away and give them back
to him. In support of this he produced
letters showing that he had been sending
the children money for their support and
schooling; also affdavts alleging that
his wife was not a proper person TO rear
the children. He was represented by Il.
I. Hicks Esq, of Henderson.
On the other hand the mother proved
an excellent character both by witnesses
and by affidaYits of a QoZen of the best
white and colored citizens of Durham
1t was also shown that she was amply
able to provide for and educate the chill
dren. She was represented by Frank
Fuller, Esq. of Durham.
After hearing the evidence and affida-
Wits Judge Montgomery said he wished,
before deciding the case. to know some
thing Of the surroundings of the children
and the manner in which they were
cared for at Kittrell.
To this end he asked that dispositions
be taken and submitted to him and he
will then announce his decision.

Mid the rows of ripened corn;
Now the hunted prairie chicken
Wishes he had not been born;
Now the suaye machine collectors
Every day the farmers greet;
Now the roads are blocked with wagons
Hauling thirty wheat,
And the merchant advertses
Winter clothing-choap, but neat'
Now the farmer, from his harvest,
Lays his largest pumpin by,
Softly smiling as he thinks how
1t viii strike the judges eye:
Now his thrifty wife is building
Piece by piece rare patchwork quilts,
And his daughters paint on canvas
Brick-rcd boys in purple kits,
Crimson leaves and pale-grcen berries,
Stecl-gray stocks on yellow stills.
Now the race horse trainer gravely
Walks the bob-tailcd plug around,
And each day the trusty jockey
Rides him swiftly DER the ground.
Both the trainer and the Jockey
Work him early work him late;
While his owners neither limb they
Regularly elongate:
And the fondly trusting owner
Credulousiy pays the freight.
Now the weeds upon the race track
Fast before the sickle fall;
Loud the hammers of the worlImen
Echo in the floral hall.
And the country fair directors
Sit in solemn concave drear.
