Resolutions were adopted by the en-

several conventions to a close, the Sons

was n split in the organization. The
first row was over question OF eligibility

suit some of the State delegations with
a large membership in the order. This
caused ill-fecling. Later the friction in

had been investigating the character and
conduct of Commander in Chief Dyren-

the suspension of the Commander in

When the uproar subsidized Craig be-
gan in calm and deliberate tones. He
challenged Pritchard's statement that
the panic began un6gr Cleveland. The
spirit of unrest began under Harrison
The great Farmers Alliance movement,
which began under Harrison, was the
protest of discomfort. One by one he
took up the tariff arguments and showed
them to be unfounded and fallacious. He
told how the Republican party was the
guardian and had refused to support
the Richardson bill to suppress them.
The products OF the American farmer
were sold on free trade market, While
all that the farmer bought was on the
protection market.
AS he progressed he drew his audience
closer. The applause swelled in volume.
There was fascination in the fierce gleam
of his eye and the sweep of his arm.
Murmurs of approval would start in the
beginning of sentence impatient to ex-
press the, pent up enthusiasm, and the
moment he paused the cheers came.
When he touched on the Confederate
soldier many. eyes were dim. / noted
one veteran who had been following
him with deepest emotion. But as he
described the sufferings> of the man in
the field a torrent Of recollections
seemed to sweep over the old fellow,
and he bowed his head in his hands
while his form shook with sobs. Craig
triumphantly indicated the Democratic
state government and paid magnificent
tribute to Aycock, Overman, Simmons,
Alexander, Hoke, Watson and Osborne
who had been in front of the fight to re-
deem the State from negro rule.
For some time after he sat down it was
like pandemonium turned loose. The
cheering died away and Mr.. Hufham
came forward with three large bouquets.
At the sight of the flowers the storm
broke afresh.
When Pri.chard arose for his rejoinder
it was evident that he had completely lost
his head. His reply was pitched on such
key as none expected. His doodlers
yelled themselves hoarsc but it is only
charitable to say that Pritchard could
probably not have made that kind OF a
rejoinder if he had been himself. Most
of it was entirely personal relating to
Craig's support of Blaine and the Wind
sor postoffice incident. He said that
Craig had given the lie to every Demo-
cratic pledge. Craig asked him to modify
the statement which made Pritchard still
more inpatient: however, he did modify
it, but continued in the same coarse and
bitter strain. 1t was an unfortunate af-
fair.
Craigs conduct was admira BILE through
ont and the Democrats with one voice
hailed him as q complete victor.

McKETHAN IS OUT
He Withdraws in the Interest
of Patterson.
And Declares He Has Nothing in Common
With the independent" Movement
in Cumberland.
Especial to News and observer.)

Goldsboro, n c., Oct. 10.-In a special
given to the press from Dunn, Septen-
Der 25th, l said "E. R. McKethan. the
independent candidate for Congressional
honors in the Eighth district will in
the event he cannot get Slocomb to re-
tire from the race withdraw himself
This will be favorable to Patterson, the
Democratic nominee 1t was rumored at
Elan was to induce McKethan to continue
in the race till the eve of the election in
the interest of Slocomb, but McKethan,
who is personal friend OF Glib Patter-
son, will not pose as the decoy duck Of
Slocomb or the Republican party"
1t gives me great pleasure to say to-
night that l am authorized by Mr.. Nc
Kethan to state that he withdraws from
the race in the interest of his personal
friend Glib Patterson, the regular DEM
ocratic nominee, for the very reason that
he is Independent, and further hat lac,
McKethan has nothing in common with
the Independent movement in his (Cum-
berland) county, but will support the
regular Democratic county ticket for the
self same reason. That while he was in
dependent it by no means implied that
he did not know and did not intend TO
stand for what was for the best interest
of the people of his section, and that
as between Mr.. Slocomb with his record
and Mr.. Patterson the very fact that he
was Independent, demonstrated that he
cast his ballot for the latter. That when
he recalled the "deserter BILL" and Mr..
Pritchard's action in 1885. when the
question of Confederate pensions" was
before our State Legislature, again his
independence would demand that he vote
for no man who would vote for the re-
election of Senator Pritchard. That he
would do this no matter what he was
classed politically. as he would rather
be commandant of a small company OF
sons o. Confederate veterans and of he
Spanish american war veterans With
honor than to go TO the United States
Congress by action or votes tainted with
d!shonor.
1t will be recalled that whom Mr. Nc
Kethan who is the very soul of honor
decided TO become independent. he
promptly sent to Governor Aycock his
resignation as n member of the State
Legislature. and that he has not parti-
cipatcd in any convention whatever.
