July 8, 189¢.—Only about one-third of the delegates were present when the convention assembled at 10:30, but they came in rapidly. Senator White, of California, was made permanent chairman of the con- | vention. Soon after the convention was called to oder the committee on credentials was called to. meet in committee room immediately. The Bland club entered anil loud cheering. Gov. Hogg, of Texas, was requested to address the convention and took the platform amid chee:s and the band played “Dixie.” Boise was called on for an address, the call being attended b loud cheers and confusion, but he was not preeent. Hill was next called for, the confus- ‘ion increasing, but he was not in the hall. Altgeld was called for but did not _ | vespond at first. Loud cries were re # | peated for him, and as he arose and || proceeded to the platform he was given agreat reception. In the course of his specch Atgeld said that nearly every- thing was under mortgage, from our farms to the sewing machines of the seamstress, and all paying interest on English money, and the action of this convention was expected to change such a condition of affairs. He pointed out that the gold standard had lowered prices of tarm products while the farm er has been compelled to pay more for wast he had to buy. (Loud applause. ) Williams said the convention was in no Wise sectional, that the New Eng- land representatives had as much at stake us those from the West and South, and he spoke tor five millions spindles now silent.

WEEKLY CROvV BULLETIN. nner caren The reports of correspondents of the Weekly Crop Bulletin, issued by tlie North Carolina Climate and Crop Ser. vice, for the week ending Saturday, July 4th, 1896, indicate generally a very fa- vorable week. The temperature ,was slightly above the normal, they pvecipi- tation below, with good seasons every- where, and-too much rain in only a few scctions There was more sunshine than for several preceding weeks. Special reports on cotton indicate an exceptionally favorable outlook for that crop. of the season, blooming freely and fruit- ing well, is large and thrifty, and re- ports of yellowing and shedding squares come from very few sections. EASTERN DISTRICT. The past week has been generally very favorable for the grov:th of all, crops aad especially for farm work. The weather was comparatively dry and warm, with abundant sunshine, and sufficient rain in most sections for all requiremeuts. Too much rain oc- curred only in portions of Gates coun ty, Beaufort, Pasquotank, Northamp- ton, Pamlico and Pitt. Some slight local damage was caused by severe thunder-storms. Crops of all kinds are in excellent condition, except in the northern tier ot counties, where there was too much rain. Crops are coming out much better than anticipated in the hail districts. Corn is exceptionally fine, about all worked for last time Some complaints of tasselling low on poor lands. Cotton is doing nicely, good stand and now tolerable clean. A fine crop, considerably in advance o season, blooming geuverally and full of young bolls. Forming too much weed in some sec.ions, The crop will be laid by soon. Pea-nuts, potatoes, peas, etc., are doing well. Grapes fine, Watermelons coming into market. CENTRAL DISTRICT. With rather more diversified condi- tions in this district than in others, the past week was generally fine, compara. tively dry and warm, good for farm work and growing crops, though the heat was slightly injurious where there had been too much rain previously. | >a seasons occurred, and too much only in portions of Stokes and lim. ited sections elsewhere. “Fartaers merel in cleanimg most Crops ot} has grown Well)” maf h bugs.are still doing some dam- Local injury occurred to lowland ‘a n Cotton is larger, than Hips ls t, bloomiug freely and ig wells will soon be laid by. op i reported poor in dallas Yel Anson and few other coun. it ie yellowing and shedded VPI ee Oo) rons oy ts It is considerably in advance |, correspondents say it is growing too bar- row. * Bodie < WESTERN DISTRICT. There were good showers throughout the district. Excessive rain-tall is re- ‘| ported from three places ; all others re- port fine growing weather. The week ‘was warm, with about the average amount of sunshine. Reports on cotton are almost unanimous in saying that the crop is unusually promising, bloom. ng nicely, afd gene‘ ally full of squares. Lice, which were attacking cotton badly n some places, have about disappeared. Corn is generally reported excellent, some being laid by, ‘The season has also been favorable for tobacco, pota- toes ana garden crops. Hay is being cut, but meadows are.reported short. TENPERANGE DEPARTMENT Nal Pag as Mel Nel, WHAT I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT - THE WORLD'S PETITION. ccna BY HELEN SEANER. The plan of the World’s Petition was thought out by Miss Frances E. Willard. The idea of it is to get as many singers as possible and it to the different governments of the world to induce them to abolish the liquor traffic and the opium trade. Mrs. Mary Clement Leavitt, our first round-the-world missionary, was also the first one to circulate the Petition. presen She started from her home in 1883, and was absent nine years. In that time she traveled to nearly every government of the world. Mrs. R. C. Shuman wasthe one who made the Petition and she started it in 1890. It took about eight hours of her time every day for twc years. It was made of white cloth and bound with red rib- bon on one side and blue on the other, making the three colors of our national flag. The cloth is 2,000 yards long and the ribbon isover 4,000 yards long without counting what it took to make three rolls from England. The ribpon Mrs. Shuman sewed on all by hane. The names are pasted to the cloth three columns across. ‘Lhere are 1,000,121 actual signatures,6,000,000 attestations and 1,000,000 men have indorsed it. There are 150,000,000 in all who have indorsed it. The Salvation Army is recorded 50,000 strong and the United Society of Christian Endeavor have increased the list by 2,000,000. Over a thousand churches signed and there are eighty thousand in rising votes. The names of dignitaries, men in authority and such like are in one roll. Neal Dow’s name heads the list, and Just below itis the name of Joseph Cook. In one of the letters Mrs. Shuman received was a sentiment from a Texas woman, which I will quote: “What is done 1n this line mus’ be done by woman—man is a failour—commence at the cradel. Mrs. Shuman says that when sbe was making the Petition she felt as though she was weaving to- gether tae groans of the dying and the tears of the saints, Miss Wlllard had an interview with President Cleveland one day, and' Mrs. Hoffman and some other ladies, including he president of the Washington W. C, T..U., went with her. Miss Willard told the Pres- ident about the Petition, after which Mrs. Hoffman read the document. Cleveland made a speech and did not say anything to discourage the women. This petitioning 1s only a part of the work, The temperance work is going right on fast and I think we will soon have Prohibition. The L. T. L. children are growing up and the liquor men will get fewer and fewer “as the days are going by.” zle, C HIGAGGL CAGO_ ILL” Professional Cards. = tern cman | meta ENRY SHEPPARD, REAL ESTATE "AGENT, Greenville, N.
