The amendment to the coupon Killer No.
2, passed the Senate on January Gath, 1884
by general consent, without division. 1t
passed the House on the 9Th of March fol-
lowing. In the Senate there was no OPPOSE
ton to this amendment by Mr.. Grim or
any other Senator. In the House, Mr.
auck voted against a motion to postpone,
hich was equivalent to voting for the
amendment 1t became law on the 18th
of March 1884. The suit of Poindexter VS..
Greenhow, case in which coupon killer
No 2 was declared unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court of the United States-was
brought on the Goth day of April 1888, near
" eleven months before Democratic Leg
islature passed any act amending it,. It
was therefore coupon killer No. as orig
inally passed by the Readjuster Legislature
of 1872 that the Supreme Court pro-
nounced unconstitutional, and not the Dem
ocratic amendment to that act, which
was not passed until long after Poindexter
had brought suit to test the constitutionality
of the original coupon killer No. 2 passed
by readjuster Legislature.
1t was, therefore, the Readjuster Legis-
lature of 1912, and not the Democratic
party that ''hamstrung" the Riddleberger

"THE OUTLAY NECESSARY" -The
Democrats can elect majority of the Leg
stature if they will but work. But with
out energetic and determined efforts on the
part of the Democracy there will be danger,
for Malone has been at work quietly, but
vigorously, ever since the campaign opened,
and he will continue to push his canvass
until the Sd of November. Cheering news
comes from nearly every county in
the State, but enthusiasm " ill not win the
victory, unless it is accompanied by practi-
cal, well directed efforts. The Outcast, in
his confidential circular No. 5, after map
ping out the details of the work he wishes
done, says: 1t will enable US to determine
what results can be reached and the outlay
necessary to, insure them" Malone, being
a friend of monopoly, can command money
and he IS spending money in this campaign
just as he has spent it in former years.

The Real Issues.

The real issues of the present canvass
were briefly and forcibly stated by Judge
Waller R. Saples at Wythville, when he
charged ''the republicans as being the OPP
pressors of the laboring class; that Ma
hone had voted for a bill to permit Chinese
immigration and the pauper labor of Eu-
rope to come to this country to compete
with American labor; that if the surplus OF
millions of dollars now in the government
treasury, collected from an over-taxed peo-
pie to support and sustain monopolies, was
distributed throughout the country, the cry
of hard times would be heard no more !;
that the present stagnation in business was
not due to the new administration, but that
it had been coming for the last three years;
that the democratic party did not propose
to disturb the iron interest of this country;
that it was for putting down all monopolies
for the protection of the people that the
new admin istration had already saved the
government hundreds of thousands of dol
lars in the several branches of the govern
ment.-Lynchbwg Adpance.
A GREAT DEMONSTRATION The recep-
ton to Gen. Fitz. Lee, at Newberne, Pu-
laski county, Monday week was the most
remarkable political demonstration ever
witnessed in that section. He was escorted
into the town by 1000 mounted men, in
GLIDING one artillery company, in six divis-
ions, under the command of Gen. James
A. Walker. In a grove, halfa mile from
the courthouse, Fitz. Lee, P. W McKin-
ney and James A. Walker, spoke to over
8, 900 people. A barbecue was one of the
features The tables were loaded witt
beef, mutton, shoat, turkeys, chickens
fruir, pies, &c The amount of meat
cooked was estimated at 3, 600 pounds.

have this week felt IN the great increase
OF trade the immediate result OF their
fair treatment of customers. That is, by
giving the finest and most durable goods
at prices which were never before so low.
1t is common remark in our store: ''How
cheap; how can you sell it for that price 2"
ETC.; but we intend to Guido our previous
eXertions. Come and see. Does any
lady require any article in Millinery (?
what super1uOus question. Where is
the lady who does nOtf), then see our
gorgeous department. Bright in cOl0rs,
exquisite in style; quality not excelled,
never ending variety; and did you say
price! That ours is the lowest is a tact
which we will swear by, and which can
be proved by comparison only. Moral
then compare. The same can be SAID
about our Dress Goods Department. it
is replete in every novelty, every color
that is dyed, and almost every fabric that
is woven is to be found on our shelves.
Give us a chance to produce them TO you.
We will give you a positive guarantee
that you can't match them at anything
like the price we shall sell them to you for.
a nd now word about our Corsets. If
there is one thing more than another a
lady prides herself upon 1t is her shape.
How can she show it to advantage in
pair Of Hitting Corsets. Our line COM
prises every conceivable shape, COrsets
which will make a poor figure present
able, and Corsets which will make a fine
figure perfection. We feel compelled to
tell you about our beautiful line Of Cloaks.
We have them TO suit the humblest
pockets, also to CRAFTY the most plethoric
purse, in all the haudsomest styles and
shapes which are now in vogue. This
line, which is the larges in the city, COM
prises almost every shape which can be
construed into the word CLOAK. The
prices are, you will say when you hear
them, ridiculous, and as for quality, they
can not be beaten. We have them made
in all materials, Silk Lined, Satin Lined.
Fur Lined, and without any lining at all.
Come and see them. And now we come
to the most important part OF ladies'
dress, and that is her shoes. No matter
now we'll or handsomely a lady is aD-
parelled, il she has on pair OF badly
fitting worn shoes her makeup is COM
pletely ruined by the contrast. Now, we
always were noted for the excellence Of
our SHOES and the lOWness of their prices,
but we can now beat ourselves even
against our paimisst days of low prices.
our stock is large, and comprises the pro-
auctions Of the very best manufacturers,
aud we must again impress this fact upon
you, THAI our prices are % per cent.
below any regular shoe store. And be-
fore we close our very interesting narra-
ton, we have something to say to
mothers about boys clothing. We hold a
stock Of these goods as large, if not larger,
than Is to be found in any other store 10

a suit, either for every day, or best wear
at a price that would make clOthier
