is Aeldtogsther without quarrelings, dis

credit for this wholesome state of affairs is.
due torSenetor~ Spencer, who Lot only
made promises to the eolored people, but
fulfilled them to the letter and the

Republicans, and especially the
collored people, whose champion he
has been through all the dark
hours Of their political journey.
If the leading men of the South
who, b. colored mems votes, have
from time to time been sent to the
United States Senate and House of
Representatives, had done justice to
the colored people, the Republican
party in the Soxth to-day would
not be crumbliqg to dust. Look at
North Carolina and ask what is the
trouble. The answer comes back :
The white leaders have taken every
thing in the shape of office, and ap-
propriated it to their own use. So
it is with other. Southern States
that once had a solid, united Re
vote, the same now unsafe
and unreliable because Of the grave

RED ROCK

April ID.
The store of Clark & Shannon, and
the drug store Of 81. Alley were enter
ed by burglars on the night of the 18th
inst. Appearances indicate that the
thieves first entered the drug store
and that while breaking the window
the operator cut his hand, as blood APP
peared upon everything handled by
him thereafter. There was but little
taken from either store, money being
the object sought by the rascals, as
shown by the blood about the change
boxes.
One haif-caddy of tobacco and one
sack OF -four were taken. But little
money was procured, as the proprie'
tors had taken nearly all their cash
! from their tills.
II. Booker aud Caleb Luke were
suspected. Warrants were Issued for
their arrest and they were brought
before justice Z. Hanning. Upon
change Of venue the case went be-
fore ESQ. J. Templeton and was
brought to trial. E. w. Starr appear
ed for the prosecution and Mr.. Myers
for the defence. After a three days
trial Luke was acquitted and Booker
bound over in the sum Of $500. This
binding over had the effect Offender
ing the parties willing to turn States
evidence and tell all about the affair
provided they could thereby
get out of the trap. Booker
says Luke did the mischief and
Luke says Booker did it. when
rogues fall out honest men get their
dues,n says an old proverb. The
opinion is prevalent that if the parties
Luke and Booker get their dues they
will be provided with a free pass to
Lee county.
A citizen Of Red Rock had desper-
ate struggle with reptiles one day last
week. the reptiles were determined
to find access to his boots. Our hero
fought with desperation-brea
furniture tearing down window shades
and smashing things generally, but
finally conquered. He says he will
learn the sword exercises, and then
they may come 10y the quart, gill, or
less If they dare. &.
