In stead of -being non-partisan it was so partisan that some of the Democrats who had gone to Raleigh to attend the remained at the hotels and took no part in the The convention was controlled entirely by Butler and his fol- lowers.

The resolutions passed recommended to the that they vote for no man for congress, r for electors to elect a President but men who are and who openly for Some or the Democrats present believed that this was beyond the province of the convention and in consequence took no part in the work. This resolution was the product of Mr. brain his pose in it was parent, and he had but when Mr. offered a that silver only should made the issue in the next campaign Mr. Butler said no, and it failed to pass. Just a he wanted it so it must be. to blow the said market and the said Reports from the leading to- markets of Virginia are to the effect that this will be a crop. These reports were lated quite frequently last year at this time. The truth of it was, it was most unsatisfactory crop to leaf men that has been grown in two years. There is one buying co on the Greenville market that controls more orders than any one man in eastern North He commenced buying to on the eastern markets two years ago, with but little Since Men he has worked the older in the east. If every farmer were like the one who tries first one and then another offers the fact that he lives near some other market, to get the men with whom ho is selling his tobacco to give him just a little bit better price does other people, what kind of a world would we have.

We are frequently asked about how tobacco is holding up, At this particular time tobacco is remarkably well. everything is taken into the prices have been obtained for tobacco this season are remarkable. From the 15th of August to the present time nearly every warehouse in Greenville has had just about all the it could do. There have been up to date of tobacco sold Green- ville and for that there has been paid to the farmers between and During the time that this tobacco was being sold, have had the most precedented hot weather that our oldest people ever remember and almost on every sale from to people would gather around the buyers and and notwithstanding tho beseech appeals made by the ware- housemen to them to stand off the sale, would stand there just tho same, people a many times who never grew ;., stalk of tobacco nor had any interest m the sale. So under the stances, we think have been almost this sea- son. When it gets cooler we look for good tobacco to go higher. When the bill to regulate ware house charges was before the las legislature, among other it was said that the farm- in eastern North Carolina were so anxious for the law that would hold their tobacco the law the first day of October before they began selling their tobacco. The bill passed both by majority, goes effect October 1st but us see if the held their tobacco to get of the law.
