Governor Aycock at Wilson.
CHenrv Blount in The News

(Henry Blount in The News.)
OF course we cannot attempt even
a synopsis of this admirable and pow
erful address, suffice it to say 1t was
strong. forceful, sweeping, logical,
masterfCl, convincing and conquerlng'
In it were brightest flashes of wit, the
most exquisite CLEANS of humor, tow
ering flights of loftiest eloquence, the
finest flamings of dramatic passions
and the most electrifying outburstS OF
sublimest oratorcal fires. 1t was in
deed a magnificent effort, and showed
that Gov Aycock was a great man, a
Drained, broad-gauged statesman
a true and noble patriot, with nObleSt
impulses, loftiest aspirations broad
est views and tenderest feelings and
sweetest sympathies. And as we sat
last night under the outrageous shad-
ows of his wide spreading Intellectual
ity and looked up at his towering
mental forces and felt the tenderness
of his heart throbbings he reminded
us of a magnificent oak in the forest,
capable of defying the fury and the
rage and the power of the widest and
fiercest storm, and yet holding within
it's leafy branches a nesting place for
mother birds to teach their young
the first sweet notes of minstrelsy and
song.
Yes indeed, Gov Aycock is a great
man, for he has a mind big enough to
grasp and master any question and
heart that is attuned to all that is
good and beautiful, and this is the
stuff that makes true greatness.

WILL STAND FOREVER UNITED.

Most counties holding conventions
do not pass any resolutions, leaving
the matter of platform to the State
convention without any suggestion. In
the Perquimans County Convention
resolutions were adopted that will be
adopted which ought to be widely
read and considered. We quote:
I'VE congratulate our State upon
her peaceful solution of a vexed ques-
ton and view with pride her full
emergence from a period of unrest
and political chaos and disgrace, and
we pledge ourselves TO STAND FOR
EVER UNITED to maintain trium-
plant and unblemished the suprema-
cy OF our blood
This resolution is in marked con-
trast with the expressions of those So
called Democrats who are giving en-
enlargement to divisions among DEM
oocrats and doing all they can thereby
to strengthen the Republican party in
North Carolina. The duty of the
white men who contributed to the
peaceful solution of a vexed question
is to STAND FOREVER UNITED
unless they wish to throw away the
fruits of their hard-won victory The
day that Southern white men divide
by any considerable number of them
going into the Republican party, that
day marks the beginning of plans that
will undo the victory for the "trium-
plant and unblemished supremacy OF
our blood" Just SO long as Southern
white men settle their differences
within the ranks of the party that
made negro rule impossible, just sc
long is the South free to advance in
commerce, in education, in industry
but if there should be sharp division
among them, such division would re-
suit in re-opening the Pandora's box
of ills
The Perquimans Democrats also
gave good advice when they said: 1--WE
ask all Democrats to lose all factional
strife and party differences and to
blend all local distinctions in one
common DESIRE
There will always be differences of
opinion among independent men of
all parties, but they can always be set
tied within party ranks by men who
love their party principles more than
they love their own peculiar views
No man accomplishess anything in
this world worth accomplishing who
resolves that he will have his own
way in everything or he will sulk.
Men in parties. in churches, in lodges,
in all organizations must often yield
their individual opinions to the judg-
ment of their associates. He is a wise
man who yields gracefully and SEN
sible man who works as hard to carry
out the plans of others as those for
mulated by himself. But there are
many such wise and sensible men, as
the records of conventions and assem-
bhes show.

Stands BY Judge PEBBLES.
Wilmington Dispatch.

Just as we thought. Judge PEBBLES
refused to allow a motion to remove
the contempt proceedings to another
judge. He is precisely correct, ac-
cording to our way of thinking. The
members of the Robson county bar
who offered him direct contempt by
refusing to set a calendar for trial be-
fore him are responsible to Judge
PEBBLES alone. The fight is between
them. We look at that feature of the
unusual case as Judge PEBBLES does,
notwithstanding the effort of so many
influential papers to take the proceed
ingS out of his hands

belle of that town, and their subse-

the information received here from

the whereabouts of his associate. 1t
is said that the parents Of Miss Oman
objected to the match, but love in
this case devised a way of it's own to
surmount such easy obstacles.
Messrs. Oman and Leary traced the
couple from Norfolk to Newport News
but on their arrival there found that
Miss Oman was already Mrs. Haste.
