A motion with an amendment to limit nominating speeches to ten minutes, failed to carry.

Mr. J. A. Long, of Alamance, was the first to take the stand and he at once placed in nomination Hon. Thos.

M. Holt, who he pronounced a typical North. Carolina Governor and a typical Christian gentleman. He had already served the people in that capacity and if nominated the people already knew what kind of a Governor they would have. Mr.

Merritt, of Person, in a ring-ihg speech placed in nomination Hon. S. B. Alexander, of Mecklenr brg. Mr H.

Carr did not seek the office but that the office sought him. He had been President of the Alliance and that great body had grown and flourished under his administration. Mr. H. E.

Hodges, of Beaufort, seconded the nomination of Mr. Elias Carr. Mr. John L. Bridgers, of Edgecombe next took'the stand and re-seconded Mr.

Elias Carr's nomination. Mr. G. S. Bradshaw, of Randolph, nominated Mr.

Julian S. Carr, of Durham. After a careful study of the situation he said he was here to declare that there was a Democrat who could be elected Governor of North Carolina and his nime was Julian S. Carr, of Durham. (Applause.) He could harmonize all factions and carry North Carolina! Mr.

The report, after it was read, was unanimously adopted. The chair man also reported that the number of votes in the Convention would, under this report, be 1,006, and the number necessary to a choice 504. The committee on. platform was announced as ready to report, and discussion arose as to whether the report should be adopted before the nominations were proceeded with. Mr.

C. B. Aycock favored proceed- ing at once with the nominations, and Mr. J. S.

Bradshaw, of Ala mance, took the ground that the report at this time was not in the regular order. Mr. John T. Bellamy, of New Hanover, favored hearing the plat form now, and contended that it was in regular and that the Convention ought to know upon what principles it proposed to nom inate its candidates. A motion prevailed that the plat form be considered, and Maj.

W. Bobbins, chairman, of the commit tee came forward and read the report, which was as follows: PLATFOBSf-OF THE DEMOCRATIC PABT1. Resolved 1, That the Democracy of North Carolina reaffirm the prin ciples of the Democratic party, both State and National, and particularly favor the free coinage of silver and an increase of the currency, and the repeal of the internal revenue system. And we denounce the Mclvinley tartirr bill as unjust to the consumers of the country, and leading to the formation of trusts, combines and monopolies which have oppressed the people; and especially do we denounce the unnecessary and burdensome increase in the tax on cotton1 ties and on tin, so largely used by the poorer portion of the people. We likewise denounce the iniquitous Force bill, which is not yet abandoned by the Republican party, but is being urged as a measure to be adopted as soon as they regain control tf the House of Representatives, the pur pose and effect of which raeasu.e Will be to establish a second period of reconstruction in the Southern States, to subvert the liberties of our people and inflame a new race antagonism and sectional animos-.

That "we demand the abolition of national banks, and the substitution of legil tender Treasury notes in lieu of national bank notes, is sued in sufficient volume to do the business of the country on a cash system, regulating the amount needed on a per capita basis as the business interests of the country expand, and that, all money issued by the government shall -be legal tender in payment of 411 debts, both public and private. 4. That we demand hat Congress shall pass such laws as shall effect- nally prevent the dealing in futures of all agricultural and mechanical productions; providing such strin gent system of procedure in trials as shall secure prompt conviction and imposing such penalties as shall becure most perfect compliance with the law. 5. That we demand the free and unlimited coinage oTsilver.

6. That we demand the passage of laws prohibiting the alien owner ship of land, and that Congress take early steps to devise some plan to obtain all lands now owned by alien and foreign syndicates and that all lands now hel4 by -railroads and other corporations, in excels of such as. is actually used and needed by them, be reclaimed by the government and held for actual settlers only. 7. Believing in the doctrine of "equal rights to all and special privileges to none," we demand that taxation, National or bta'e, shall not be UBed to build up one interest or class at the expense of another.

We believe that the money of the country should be kept as much as possible in therhands of the people, and hence, we demand that all revenue, National State or county, shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government economically and honestly administered. 8. That Congress issue a suf ficient amount of fractional paper currency to facilitate the exchange through the medium of the United States mail. 9.

Never to be forgotten in the history of North Carolina was the convention of the Democracy of the State which assembled in Stron-ach's warehouse yesterday at 12 o'clock.

This vast auditorium, although one of the largest buildings of the kind in the State, was not half spacious enough to hold the throng which crowded thither. The number of delegates to which the State is entitled is 1006 and few seats of regular delegates were left vacant 'There were besides -hundreds of the" flower of the Democracy of the State who came to be present at the deliberations of the convention.

He said if he were to preach a would take his text from Proverbs. Better a dry mors'el than a house full of strife. He trusted that there was no man here who did not love North Carolina and her institutions and who was not willing to sacrifice personal preferences and Individual opinions for the party which has done so much. for our grand old Commonwealth. He referred to to Jarvi to Scales and to the lamented Fowl and the patriotic wise and conservative administration of Thos.

M. Gov. Holt's name was greeted with loud and long applause. Where shall relief be found? said Mr. verman, shall we look to the i Republican party which when we asked for purity vre us corruption.
