"(Editorial Correspondence.)
HotEL Ponper,
Ocracoke, N. C., July 20."The
season at Ocracoke is now at its prime,
and the many people sojourning here
are enjoving this pleasant resort to the
utmost. Hotel Ponder is surpassing
any of its former seasons, and Proprie-
tor Seorge Credle is giving it a reputa
tion which it has not heretofore e2-
joyed.
This season transportation facilities
are much more advantageous than
~formerly, and this factalso causes much
larger crowds to come here. The
elegant Old Dominion Line steamer,
Virginia Dare, under command of |
clever Capt. David Hill, make a trip
from Washington here every Saturday
night, returning Sunday night. Let
me say here in passing that any one
who has ever traveled with Dave Hill
knows what a pleasure it is to be on a
steamer under his command. Then the
same company in connection with the
Norfolk & Southern railroad have es-
tablished a lay boat here and this is
one of the regular stopping points of
the large and commodious steamer
Neuse that plies between Newbern and
Elizabeth City. This steamer touches
here every night. And beginning on
Wednesday, 22nd inst., the steamer
Gazelle will begin a mid-week trip from
Washington, leaving there at 8 oTclock
A. M. on Wednesdays and returning
the number of sail boats to and from
Ocracoke make it possible for people to
come and go every day.
I lonked over the hotel register on
Sunday and found there were fifty ar-
rivals here on that day alone. Among
these were people from New York,
Baltimore, Lynchburg, Richmond,
Winston, Greenville, Washington, New-
bern, Tillery and other points.
There are a number of pretty girls
among the guests, and let me add again
that Greenville oholds her own� when
the oround up� comes. Miss Lillian
Cherry is the most popular girl here,
the boys all declaring that she is the
most charming dancer that has been
here this season.
In addition to the large number of
guests at the hotel there are many at
several boarding houses, and still many
others are here occupying their summer
cottages. A party of twelve young
men from Winston ure in camp here
having immense fun. So ftaken alto-
gether the entire istand presents a_pic-
ture of activity and gayety.
Col. Williamson, the veteran fish-
erman of Ashevllle, is here again this
season, but you can mark it down that
oUncle John� Cherry d ouTt let anybody
go ahead of him in landing the finny
tribe. ,
. .M.. King, General Manager ot the
Nortolk and Southern railroad arrived
here with his family on his private
yacht. _
It was my pleasure on Sunday to
hear Dr. C. M. Payne, of Washington,
preach two delightful sermon here

# HE PEOPLE SPEAK.
St. Louis, July 17."After ~a debate
that lasted four hours last night the
Jefferson club, the democratic organi-
zation of this city, endorsed the Chica-
go platform and the nomination of Bry-
an and Sewall by a vote of 62 to 34.
|F.W. Lehman and R. G. Frost op-
posed the indorsement and Frank M.
Ester, Lee Merry weather, Given Camp-
bell and Paul 'T. Gadsden spoke in
favo: of it. President Rolla H. Wells
hus resigned from the club in conse-
quence of last nightTs action.
New York, July 17."A meeting was
held this morning at the office of Flow-
er & Co. between Senator Hill, ex-
Lieutenant Governor William F. Shee-
han, B. F. Martin, of Tammany hall,
ex-Governor R. P. Flower and Chair-
man Hinckley, of the state democratic
committee. The whole political situa-
tion was gone over and the best pos-
sible methods of procedure discussed.
It was finally agreed that an early
meeting of the state ccmmittee thould
be held and the chairman was asked
to issue a call this evening. It is ex-
pected that the committee will meet
in a few days and fix an early date for
the state conyention. ~The, attitude of
the democracy of the state of New
York in the coming campaign will be
left vo the convention to decide. Sen-
ator Hill has decided to remain silent
until the convention meets.
Topeka, Kan., July 17."The Amer-
ican silver party state convention, com.
posed of over 300 delegates represent-
ing four-fifths of the counties in the
state, yesterday afternoon elected six-
ty delegates to the national silver ccn-
vention at St. Louis and instructed
them to vote asa unit for William J.
Bryan for president. The republicans
were in tull control of the convention,
comparatively few of the delegates be
ing either populists or democrats. Of
the eleven delegates at large all were
republicans up to the time of the re-
publiean national convention except
three. Of the forty-nine district dele-
gates all but fifte2n are republicans.
The resolutions commended Senator | |
Teller and his associates for bolting
the republican national convention and
instructed delegates to the national
iag yepnblicans in an endeavor to s0-
lidify all tree silver forces.

asked today :

It is of very great importance that
an able, efficient executive officer
should have charge of the state cam-
paign, North Carolina democrats have
been badly served often. Few men in
amullion have the right combination
of endownments for leadership. The
ablest of all democratic managers is
not popular with ~young America.�
The ogood gray heads� are at a: dis.
count in this state, and men of sixty
are shoved uside to make way for as"
piring youth. In England the old
men like Gladstone and Salisbury are
put at the helm in a storm. Ex-Sen-
ator Jarvis is vastly superior to any
men known now in the state for the
chairmanship of the democrasic execu-
tive committee. Ifhe has an equal he
is unknown as yet. Itis a bad year
for experiments. We have no _ idea he
will be selected. He was ignored at
Chicago also." W ilmington Messen-
