the editor of the Dispatch, Rich-

have submitted your telegram of
yesterday, requesting me to explain
why Mr. Bryan voted for Weaver in
1892, to Senator Gorman, who was a
member of the Democratic campaign
it 1892. He says that the
National of which Mr
William G. was chairman,
v Mr. Dun M. Dickinson chairman
the campaign committee, determined
to request all the Democrats in
tho Slates West to
unite with the Weaver people in carry-
these States, so as to prevent
from electoral vote in
Nebraska, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming,
Oregon, Nevada and California, and as
a rule the Democrats followed the re
quest of the Democratic National com.
In addition to this New
York World made an appeal a
to carry out the plan
of campaign mined on by
Democratic committee. Therefore,
whatever Mr. Bryan or any other
Democrat did in the support Weaver
was at the request of the National
Democratic committee.

Hon. Secretary of
State for West was one of

Mr. Bryan to that State. While
in Washington Mr Chilton said
am not of the result in West
and have no hesitation in
that Bryan will get its electoral
vote. Our people are strongly for
and many converts have been
made from the republican ranks. The
Palmer and Buckner ticket will not
poll much a vole. The republicans
are making the roost strenuous efforts
for the allegations p
coercion and intimidation railway
are strictly true. But there
is always a reaction against such
and a feeling of resentment arises
in the minds of the men who are thus
coerced that will result in causing

Moms months ago Mr. R. R. Cotten,

diploma and bronze medal from the
World's Fair committee on awards for
a of books written by North
Carolina women which she had on ex-
at the fair. Mrs. spent
much lime and labor in getting up the
and the award it received is
very complimentary both to her and the
State. The name of each author rep

Cotten, appears in the diploma. This
week Hit diploma will be presented to

She was just entering the 26th year

with many lofty, amiable, admirable
traits of character, of the highest true
Christian type, she always made friends
by her depth and firmness of character,
and them unto death. No one
