Mr.. KITCHIN IN THE LEAD.

The following significant paragraph
we clip from the Goldsboro correspond
ence to the Raleigh Post since our last
issue, concerning the candidates before
the congressional convention there to-
day:
"The three strongest candidates, it
is generally conceded here, are Claude
Kltchin, Den Gillian aud Fred A.
Woodard. Close observers seem to
think the battle royal Will be between
Kitchin and Gillian, and that Kitchin
will prove the strongest man in
the race. The friends of Mr..
Kitchin regret very much that his
appointments elsewhere in the State
where, from all reports from a private
source, he is making a most brilliant
campaign in the interest of the cause,
prevent his addressing and meeting
the people in his own district"

HARNETT AT TOP.

Dunn Farmer.
We see from the Raleigh papers
that the Chairman of the Executive
Committee of Harnett county, has
funds In hand to pay ali the expenses
Of their representative at the extra
term Of the Legislature which meets
in June. Harnett is the first county
in the State to take this step and all
other counties should TALL in line, for
it would not be right to let even one OF
that noble body pay his own expenses
The Democrats of Harnett are always
ready to do the square thing by those
who are faithful to the cause of good
government. No other county In tie
State has made more rapid progress
along the lines OF education, morals
and good government, than Harnett
during the past two years. We have

county proposes to lead with a big
majority in August for the Amend
ment against negro Office holding and

There is more Oatarrh in this Sec

by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease, and
