Commander-in-Chief Palmer has issued the following orders regarding the encampment and parade: L The parade of the twenty-sixth national encampment promises to surpass in magnitude and magnificence all ita predecessors. In view of this and of the time that will necessarily bo consumed in passing in review the commander- in chief hns decided that no other than Grand Army organizations will be permitted in the line. Department commanders will take note of this in forming their commands. TL. A gun will be fired at 9 o'clock a.m. sharp, which will be the signal for the several com- | mands to astomble. The second gun will be fired at 9:30 o'clock, which will be the signal for the head of the column to move, and depart- ment commanders will be aired to have their commands ready to wheel into line at that time. Any department not ready to move into the column at the proper time will lpse its position [in line, Aide-de-camp will be ‘instructed to j allow no break and té bring into line the de- partments that are ready. TI. Orders containing the formation, &e., will be published and furnished to department commanders later. ‘The line of march will be on Pennsylvania avenue from the Capitol grounds to Washing- ton Circle. Length of march, two miles. Each | | | | | about one hour. The commander-in-chief has decided for several reasons that the parade shall be in double column: the principal reason being that hundreds of comrades have heretofore refrained from joining in the march on account of its | great length, the fatigue of waiting in side | streets before moving and the lateness of the hour when the lust of the column would pass | the reviewing stand. The march on this oc- casion will be over perfectly level streeta, paved with asphalt, and the double column formation | will reduce the length of the parade and time | of waiting, so as to make it pleasure rather | than a tax to every comrade who participates | in it, i .

AN EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING. ‘There will be a meeting of the citizens’ ex- ecutive committee of the Grand Army encamp- ment tomorrow afternoon. pects there will only be a small attendance, as a great many of the able chairmen are wooing cool breezes at the seashore and in the moun- wins. In the meantime, however, the pressure for attending to the various detaila of the rangements is increasing.

AMONG THE REPURLICANS—A MOVEMENT TO OUST EAVES—THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATIONS. Correspondence of The Evening Star. Rauaiow, N. C., Augast 22, 1892. The campaign has in the past three days be- come more personal. The democrats are mak- ing charges against several of the third parts candidates, One of these is that one candidate eloped with bis married aister-in-inw and went to Canada, Another is against the lending can- didate, and surely it is the oddest ever bronght. It is that the man bought from « merchant Jot of western meat—the whive and salty meat #0 familiar in the south—and that he smoked it thoroughly and fold it as home-cured ment, the | man who had sold it originally buying it back | again thus disguised. ‘The third party has, according to democratic statements, lost ite grip, Ite chance for sue- cess appenrs to have passed and it is losing members rapidly. The alliance, the backbone of the third party, hax also, it is asserted, lost heavily in membership. For the firet timo the officers have this year declined to state the strength of the order or to give to the public any news regarding its business, The order has astate business agency milar character in nearly business of the state agency a year ago. when the last public report was given the public, was $454,000, The allian nber-hip ( white Was then declared to be 90,000.

What is the strength of the negro vote state? Generally 115,000 is named as the figure. This will leave only 20,000 for the white voters of that party. There must be more of them. If the Intter supposition be true more negroes than are generally supposed to do so must vo the democratic ticket. A republican declared today that in the part of the state west of Kaleigh there are between 30,000 and 40,000 white republicans, That section is their stronghold. There are few in the counties in the east and democratic sentiment et them is stronger. In a few counties the white republicans have always outnumbered the white democrats, these being in all cases the ones in which a negro is a rarity. CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATIONS The third party convention of the sixth dis- trict has nominated A. Maynard of Anson connty for Congress aud W. D, Edmunds o! Kebeson for elector. The democratic convention of the seventh congressional district meets at Salisbury day after tomorrow. John S. Henderson will be renominated, no opposition to him having been heard of. Ilis nomination will complete the list of the democratic congressional nomines. ‘Those in the other districts are as follows: First, W. A. B. Branch; second, F. A. Wood- ward; third, B. F. Grady; fourth, B, Hl. Bann: Williams: sixth, 8. B. Alexan- der: eighth, W. H. Bower: ninth, W. T. Craw- ford: of whom Woodward and Bower are the only new men. The most aggressive republican in the state at present is Thomas Settle, the congressional nominee in the fifth district. He is out in a ciren- lar attacking Williams, bis democratic oppo- nent, and alleging that Williams bas not_made the usual number of joint appointments to speak: four to each county. Settle takes a shot at Williams by saying that perhaps the latter is trying to run with both the democrats and the Some of the democrats who have always been “straight” and who distrusted th: Farmers’ Alliance have charged Williams with pandering tov much to the alliance. ‘MR.
