County Ticket Nominated By a
Novel Convention Today.
From Saturdays Daily.

FIR ON Saturdays Daily.
There was county convention held
in the court house in this city today,
which the chairman Of the assemblage,
Mr.. E. A. Simpkins, assistant post
master ofthis city, addressed as the
Republican convention of Wayne
county, and which he continued to
designate as such whenever occasion
required him to say anything as it's
presiding officer. In fact, so pointed
of Wayne county, that it looked as if
he were afraid they might be mistaken
tor something slse-there was such a
8 'mixing-up' OF folks. But let it go at
that. They nominated the following
county ticket:
For Sheriff.. A. Ivy.
For Register of Deeds-S. o. Holmes.
For Treasurer-W. Fred Martin.
For CorOner-Dr. John Spicer.
For the Senate-E. W. Hill.
For the House-Hardy Rose and
Daniel Jones.
For County Commissioners E.
Fields, 6. F. Butts, Sylvester Tew, F.
A. Cox, - Jinnett.
For Surveyor-N. p. Edgerton.
The convention was conspicuous for
the absence of the "colored brother
and the white contingent that used to
stand for them: and doubtless their
absence was why the chairman con-
tinued to accentuats the fact that it

stockholders Annual Meeting Yes
tefday---Stats's Property
BeiD0 Looked After.

Morehead CITY, N. o., Aug. 1S-Ihe
stockholders of the Atlantic and North
Carolina Railroad met at noon in the
Atlantic Hotel annex. L. Harvey, of
Kinston, presided, with w. L. Aren-
Stevens. of New Bern, as secretary
and assistant secretary, respectively.
The report of President j. w. Grain
ger, stating that the road was in fairly
good condition so far as he knew, was
read to the stockholders. The presi-
dents report showed that all of the
suits had been adjudicated favorably
to the company, with the exception
of the Overman wood contract cases,
which are before the State Supreme
Court.
A bit of sensation was sprung by
the report of the expert, Mr.. G. Dewey,
OF Colds boro the name of r. B. Foster,
assistant general uperintendent of the
Norfolk and Southern Railroad, not
being signed jointly, as is required un
der the terms of the lease. Mr.. Foster,
it was stated, declined to sign the ad-
verse report on account of difference
OF opinion with Mr.. Dewey az to the
meaning of the werd standard when
used with reference to the condition Of
track and rolling stock of the leased
property. Expert Dewey reported that
only about sc 2-3 per cent. OF the re-
quisite mum Der of ties had been installed
during the past year, that the great
er part of the track is grassy, showing
lack of work, and that the surfacing
and alignment are not up to standard.
Expert Foster claims that the stand
ard required by the terms OF the lease
was that the condition should be as
geod as at the date on which the road
was leased, while Expert Dewey<claims s
that the standard, after the eXpendit-
ure OF the $250,00 for permanent bet
termeats within three years, as called
for in the lease, determined what was
standard. This is to be the subjec OF a
special meeting of the board OF direct
ors called tor October.
The directors on the part OF private
stock were renominated and the gov
ernor, through State proxy L. B. War
rem, of Trenton, announced the reap
pointment OF all directors on the part
OF the State for one year, except that
