REPUBLICANS SPLIT.
Fierce Senatorial Fight Ends in the
Nomination of two sets 81 GSHai-
dates.

Nomination of two sets 81 Csnai-
dates.
PARKERsBURa, June 12-The third
district Senatorial Convention today
resulted in splitting up the party and
the selection OF two sets OF candi-
dates. The convention was for the
purpose of nominating two candidates
for the State Senate, one Of whom is
to hold over and will vote for a Unit
ted States Senator TO succeed Senator
Scott. The fight between Scott and
Caldwell was on in earnest. Caldwell
had secured the solid delegation from
Wood county, which was As votes,
while the three other counties in the
district had together 40 votes.
1t was supposed that Caldwell
would control the entire convention,
as he had but one vote to secure to dc
this, but split delegation in Richie
county made it possible to cause trou-
BILE for him. Recognizing the Cald-
we'll faction in Richie county as the
legitimate delegation, Caldwell com
bined with Anthony Smith, its head,
who was himself candidate for one
of the nominations, and the Scott del
egation from Richie county then
went with Writ and Peasants coun-
ties and combined against Caldwell.
The executive committee stood by the
Scott men and recognized the Scott
delegation from Richie county and
named Scott men for temporary Off
GERS. These officers refused to recog-
nize the Caldwell contestants from
Richie county, and by SO doing had
a majority Of the convention. But
the Caldwell men did not submit to
this, and they called another chair
man to the chair. Both chairmen
NJ. K. Duty for the Scott men and
Sherman Robinson for the Caldwell
men, presided over their respective
conventions at the same time in the
same hall There were threats of Sc
rious trouble and such terms as liar,
scoundrel and william were frequently
used. Three sergeants- alarms were
appointed by the Caldwell crowd to
put the other chairman off the stage,
but he held his ground till he had de-
clared his men nominated and then
left quietly. The Scott men nomina-
ted L. j. Murphy of St. Marys and T.
A. Brown of Elizabeth The Caldwell
men nominated G. T. Caldwell of
Parkersburg and Anthony Smith OF
Harrisviile.

A special from Uniontown in regard
to hear heath says
On the Sth of March last a severe
pain appeared in the joint of her right
foot, causing her great suffering and
in order to relieve the pain iodine was
used. Mrs Sembower some three
years ago suffered bad attack of the
Clip which left her without circula-
tion and on this account the iodine
poisoned her foot causing gangrehe. 1t
grew so serious that the physician in
charge said that he could do nothing
for her, so on last Wednesday DR..
Buchanan of the Mercy hospital, as
sisted by DR.. Hayes Of the same in
stitution, arrived in town, and return
ed Monday of this week and amputat-
ed her limb above the knee. The
physicians thought when they per-
formed the operation that they had
operated far enough above the knee,
to get beyond the diseased tissue, but
after the operation they discovered
constitutional poison, her entire system
being poisoned.

THINGS IN CLEVELAND.
Corn Cracker Wants Gen. Carr Elected to the

Cherry Mountain. N. G.. Oct. 10.

Cherry Mountain, N. c., Oct. 10.
To the Editor: Perhaps the people OF
the East desire to hear the news from
Cleveland county.
The forces are lined up and we are go
ing to win. Cleveland believes in tax
paid, standard proof Democracy; the kind
Coils Jones dreams about, and the kind
that causeth Col. Amos Owens. the seer
of Cherry Mountain to prohesy.
Hence anything of Commercial" or
"Independent" brand is not recognized in
this bailiwick. even when it gives the
hailing sign of Democracy.
While the yeoman gets no vote in the
matter, we are still interested in the
Senatorial race. see that some political
prophet claims that Lee S. Overman is in
the lead, with Cy Watson close second.
dates are good material, and any of them
would make a Senator of which North
Carolina might be justly proud.
But when are we going to reward our
old Confederate veterans?
What about the man whose country S
call was the voice of God in 81 and has
been ever since? What about the man
whose life has been round of benefac-
tions, and who has done more than any
other one man, to promote the interests
of agriculture, commerce, manufacturing,
education religion. and as much for De-
mocracy in active canvass on the hastings
and more by money and counsel than any
of them? l allude to Julian S. Carr, the
old soldier on whose temples has gather
ed the snow that never melts, and who is
the unfailing friend that sticketh closer
than a brother to his comrades in arms.
Do you seek man gifted with the elo-
quence that thrills and sways assemblies
We commend you to his speech at De-
troit Michigan. and his masterpiece OF
eloquence when the clans gathered at
historic Roanoke. Here Julian s. Carr
the Durham phlanthropist, and the
erudite. patriotic Walter Clark. delivered
each an address of the very highest or
der. Do you seek man of affairs? Look
at Durham. Charlotte and Greensboro;
wnere he is identified with many and
varied interest as we'll as al Raleigh? Dc
you desire a man true to the tenCts and
traditions Of Democracy? From the time
that he shouldered his musket in the COS
till the year of grace 1902. ne has never
faltereG i'll duty nor devotion. While he
lives, honor him if ever. and if you don't
elect him Senator. elect that grand old
militant Democrat, Cyrus B. Watson.
But on one thing we are agreed: Yates
Webb is going to Congress from the Ninth
district. In the first place. it has SO been
declared officially by Col. Amos Owens
the political seer of Cherry Mountain, and
the reasons he gives are so plain that any
man, though an 1S-karat fool, need not
err therein.
In the first place, saith Amos, the name
/ is something to conjure with, and always
wins The grandfather Of Yates. James
Webb was invincible before the voters

of Rutherford county, when Rutherford
comprised from three to four times as
much territory as it now occupies.
Then J. L. Webb has never been de-
feated. and no one this time entered the
lists against him. Col. Amos declares
that Jim has groomed Yates till no man
can cope With him, and not come off sec
ond best. He says Yates will get 5000 by
reason of his oratory, mixing qualities
and clean record; 900 on his good looks,
and the remainder because he is Jim's
brother and his majority will be $500.
Coils Jones, Democratic star of the
first MAGNITUDE as a dreamer, and a
Daniel came to judgment, predicts a ma
jority of 1900
In any event, we expect a rousing ma
jority. and the spell-binders have good
crowds While there was some apathy
at first as to registration, the work now
booms serenely on. In No we often
have grandfather. father and son, all reg
istering under the Grandfather clause.
Out of 80 negro voters at Polkville, not
over five can possibly register, and none
have vet got on the roll.
The Grandfather Clause let's in very
few in the West, and if all whites regis
ter, the detection from the cohorts of De-
mocracry will be small.
