convention held here ten lays ago in
opposition to the regular Democratic
ticket, the bulk of those present being

In Raleigh d~iligent search was made for
primaries, but none were located. In

be heard of a meeting or an attempt to

were held in Raleigh.
There were few meetings in the county,
and these were but SHINY attended. The
