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 o’clock 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 “holds her own” when the “round 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 “Uncle John” Cherry d ou’t 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 is spending some days here.

W. # 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 night’s 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. Senator Smith, of New Jersey was asked today : “Isthere any silver sentimentin New Jersey 7” . “Yes, much more than is generally supposed. The agriculture element of each purty is affected to a consider. able degree by the enthusiasm of the western farmers fo: this idea.

Paneer eee 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 “good 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.
