Outside OF RALEIGH.

The weather was so inclcmcnt that
very few people reached the city last
night and returns were received from
very few precincts. The heavy down
pour of rain made it impossible to have
an average attendance ut the primaries.
If the day had been fair, almost enough
voters would have taken part to have
elected the ticket nominated.
The following unofficial returns from
outside precincts were all that could be
obtained last night:

TION.
No action was taken by any ward i'll
Raleigh looking to the nomination OF
candidate for the Legislature, or for
County Commissioner. The candidates
for these important positions, the most
important on the ticket, will be selected
by the delegates to the county conven-
ton. There is practical unanimity Ill
favor of nominating Mr.. \. +. Brough-
ton and Mr. w. II. Holland for the
House. 1t is understood that Mr.
Broughton cannot accept the nomination
HOW II STAN.
The returns are too meagre to be abso-
lutely certain of anything except the
nomination of Capt Page for sheriff,
though it looks like Russ will win for
Clerk and Hood for Register of Deeds.
The vote reported stands:
For Clerk:
Russ ......... ............ J1>
Moye ............ .......... 81
Moyc's friends claim that his chief
strength is from the country districts,
and when these are heard from, he will
be in the lead or it will be nip and tuck.
The friends of Russ say that he will lead
Moye i'll the country as well as in the
city and that his nomination is GER
tam.
There is no doubt about the nomination
of Capt. Page for sheriff He has 62z
votes from precincts already heard from,
to Norwood's 267. He expects to keep
up this ratio Throughout the county.
1t looks like Hood will win in walk
for Register of Deeds and that Capt. b.
j. Williamson will he the next County
Treasurer.

AND NONE BUT STRONG MEN

SOME OF THE CONTESTS WERE CLOSE
Russ for Clerk, Page for Sheriff, Williamson
for Treasurer, and Hood for Register
of Deeds, in the Lead, but a Large
Vote is Cast for Others.

The floods of rain that fell on yester-
day evening and last night interfered
materially with the attendance on the
Democratic primaries. The streets ut
the hour for the ward meetings were
flowing with water and the rain was
falling in torrents. To make mattc,s
worse the street lights, ut the time when
the voters were leaving home, were off
on their nightly vacation and the only
resort lett pedestrians was to feel Their
way or borrow lanterns
Considering the drawbacks. the meet
ings were wonderfully well attended.
The contests in some cases were close,
hut the lest of feeling prevailed through
out and the men who received the suf-
fraces of their fellow Democrats are all
well qualified to make Il strong tight
against the common enemy.

Referring to the assassination OF
Postmaster. Baker, the Richmond, Va,
Times" says:
When the line of the law and its
reverential observance is once broken
down, all restraint is thrown to the
winds and the spirit of anarchy is let
loose.
This time it was a negro and his
whole family of six who were either
killed or wounded. because he was dis
agreeable as a Postmaster-the next
time it may be some Objectionable
white person who may be easier set
tied with by a mob than in court
On the same subject the The State"
columbia S. CO adds:
THE race pride of these men. IL
seems, was wounded by the appoint
ment of a negro Postmaster; so to
blazon to the world their high resent
ment and prove the injustice of thus
giving office to an inferior, they place
themselves on the moral and religious
level of the aboriginal African, the-
attack at midnight under cover OF
darkness-the many against the few.
the strong against the weak and help
less-and they assassinate indiscrim-
inately man. woman and child. Where
are the white mans characteristics in
this deed? A negro Postmas-
ter, Is that something to resent with
assassination? Who are these peo-
pie in Williamsburg County that they
can not endure that which the most
refined. the most sensitive citizenship
of the State has endured with patience
and dignity in years gone by? Column
bia had q negro Postmaster for eight
years. Charleston had negro POST
master for eight years. Dozens of
South Carolina towns have had negro
Postmasters. 1t was offensive-nec-
essarily so-hut who was hurt by it?
None but the party that appointed

The fact is that the differences that
mostly make sects and denominations
do not any longer represent religious
life, but the want of it, says the
christian Register (Unit) of Bos-
ton. Gather together the saints from
all the denominations of America-we
mean the men and women of the deep
est and most vital religious experience
and try TO discover what they are
thinking about, from what sources they
derive their life. what the prime arti-
Giles Of their faith are. They are not
thinking about the Trinity or ever
lasting punishment or any other dog
ma They do not care to urge upon
you the special differences that have
hitherto distinguished their church. 1t
is doubtful if many of them would cross
the street merely to convert you from
your present opinions to theirs. These
minor differences concern the shallower
