Abstract:
In the 1896 gubernatorial race, black Republican voters were divided over the candidacy of Daniel L. Russell. Conservative black Republicans opposed Russell because of his wish of fusion with the Populist Party and detesting his public racial insults. Others favored fusion with the Populists as a means of avoiding Democratic dominance and the expected racial prejudice. A victorious Russell was brought about by good organizational tactics and a bulk of black voters brought over by Democratic anti-black campaign rhetoric.

Abstract:
This article challenges and reevaluates several of historian Julian Boyd's interpretations regarding the appointments of sheriffs in colonial North Carolina. The author uses quantitative evidence from 14 counties, the number of sheriffs who were justices of the peace, the frequency of self-recommendation, the frequency of county court recommendations and the governor's use of independent judgment in the appointment of sheriffs.
