AsHEvILLE, Oct. 13-I notice The
SENTINEL propounds the question,
chow would Senator Waddeil' sound?'
1 am glad you have sprung the
question and 1 propose to answer for
many, very many In the west, when /
assert that we like the sound aoondcr-
fully UeN. While we, in this section,
have known Col. Waddell for many
long years and esteemed him one of
the first statesmen of the otate and
South, we were not prepared to believe
he was the man we found him after
hearing him speak. No one has ever
made the profound impression upon
the minds of our people that he did.
His speeches were the gerry best we ever
heard and have done more to arouse
the white men of this section than all
others. We do hope the State will
avail itself of the opportunity of put
ting him in the Senate, where he prop
erly belongs. With Vance and Wad-
dell in the Senate, always ready and
able to meet the enemies of our sec
ton, we could feel that our interests
were in safe hands.
Let the word go round,
"Waddell is the joyful sound"

New York's latest amusement fad,
the road sculler's race, is doing fairly
well. 1t is six days contest between
oalsmen who row carriages instead Of
boats. The machine is tricicle with
sliding seat and arm action similar to
that Of propelling an ordinary racing
she'll. Particular interest is given to
it from the fact that the twelve con-
testants number the best known oars
men in the country-all Of them
champions or ex- champions. For a
long time Gotham amused herself with
six days walking matchIs, but they
fell into innocuous desuetude. Then
we had six days roller-skating match
es, dreary sort of a contest, the ever
lasting swirl of the rollers making
one seasick. Last year some bright
spirit in the sporting line resuscitated
the pedestrian contest with considera-
BILE success. The rowing match is an
English idea, and English ideas al

BE NOT DECEIVED.
[ [Raleiqh Nescs and Observer. !

We trust that no Democrat de
ceiveth himself with the belief that
we are to have a mere "walk over" on
election day. If any such there be
1t Is high time for him to undeceiye
himself, and for the following reasons:
The vote polled at the coming elec.
tion will be the largest ever poIled in
the State; the campaign will Lc the
longest ever had more interes, has
been manifested in politics thar ever
before; the mail facilities are greater
than ever before; there are more
newspapers than ever before and more
speakers. But one result can follow
from ell these conditions. that is to
say more people will go to the polls
and vote than ever before. Indeed
we venture to say the whole vote will
not vary 5000 from 295,0OO, some
70 odd 1000 more than ever before.
Of these Dockery will receive any.
where from 10000 t. ,OOO-pos-
sibly as much as $500 more. Of this
Docllery vote 10000 will be negroes
the b@!ance whites so called but
OF very dingy hue.
With solid voting column of11O,-
OOO negroes who are sure to vote nc
cordlng to order, aud without urging
or looking after, all the radicals will
have to do on election day will be to
look after the few thousand whites"
who vote with them and see that they
go to the polls. This will be an easy
matter, for it is only about an aver.
age OF 70 to q precinct in the Staie.
We must account, therefore, on their
bringing cut their full strength, their
last man.
But why do we say the Dockery
vote will be up to the figures we have
given? We say so simply because
we judge the future by the past. In
1870 the radical vote was $4,000; in
1872 it was $4,000 in 1876 it WAS
10000; in 1880 it was 115,000, amt
in 1854 it was 123,000 At this rate
of increase it will certainly not be safe
to expect that Dockery will get
much if any less than $4,000 votes
And this increase is easily accouute'l
for, when we remember how rapidly
the negroes increase and that they ali,
young as well us old, vote the radicni
ticket.
Now what does all this mean That
we will be beaten Not at all. w has
it does mean, however, is that there is
work before US and plenty Of it We
must poll 100000 votes to keep up
our majority. We can do it but ii is
no light task to see that 100000 nlen
get to the polls and put the right bal
lots in the right boxes. Ours is big
ger job than that OF the radicals, be-
cause we have SO many more people
to look after.
Rain, hail or shine, the radical vote
will go in. Democrats must rely not
upon their voters, but upon their vo'es
A vote unvoted is not worth cent
A stay-at-bome Democrat is not worth
half cent. Let every white mat,
then go to the polls and put his votc
in the ballot box-uuless indeed he is
willing to live under negro rule.

Radical Discourtesy In GuiIford.
Especial Cor. 10 The Sentinel

Mr.. ED1ToR:-If you will give
space in your valuable paper | will
give you few dots from old Gull
ford.
Colfax is situated in the western
part of the county and is a strong
hold for the radicals, but they are
very uneasy. Col. A. S. Holton is
the radical nominee for the Senate.
He had an appointment to speak at
Sandy Ridge. The Honorable D.
F. Caldwell was there to meet the
people but Mr.. Holton did not make
his appearance. Whereupon the
RAIDS shut the door in the face of
Mr.. Caldwell, Notwithstanding his
gray hairs and old age.
Last Saturday night the Cleve-
land and Fowle Club met at Colfax
School House and who should make
his appearance but Mr.. Holton,
without giving notice of his coming
save to a few of his radical friends.
But he was not treated by the Dem
ocrats as Mr.. Caldwell was treated
by the radicals at Sandy Ridge,
but was given all the time he want
ed. After his speech Messrs. I. j.
Britain and Esquire Davis, farmers,
discussed the issues of the day with
the precision that would have been
a credit to experienced statesmen.
In other words they gave Mr.. Hol-
ton a Bunkers Hill reception. At
the close of the meeting Mr.. Britain
challenged every man on the radical
ticket, from Dockery down, to meet
him in joint discussion.
The people are beginning to wake
up. Touch mans pocket and
you touch his politics. We are tir-
ed of the trusts and conspiracies tha
are being fostered by the monopo
lists. IF the Democ attic party vii
do their duty, the RAIDS will b
brought to the mourners bench tn,
9th day of November. SILo.

a Dream Kiss, After AIneIie Rives.

Inmy dreams of yesternight kiss stole,

Fassonately. I'll waling .'.sa ...,s went by
Like autumn's harvest OF uead leaves ami

Swept by the dying breath of stricken Time
Aud there was naught else on the wide green
earth
Save that lone kiss, that trembled like a

Heavy with summer dew. My parted lips
Caught breath of lips not mine, tn at thrilled
and shuddered
Through the veins ofmy quivering body,
My heavy eyelids poppy-kissed; nay veiled
The eyes that through a binding mist saw
naugat;
And yet saw all Oh sad mouth, sadly kissed,
Forget the dream, since not by chance,
Forevermore laay those lips breathe into
My again.
If l might give my life
And have instead that mad sweet dream mo-

E'er sweet night wakes the morrow. With

For the dew of thine, I'd kiss the still.
Nay, come bat again, that may hold
Thee tightly in these arms and fill thy no

Clam'ring against the white drifts of my bos'in,
And the fierce strength of thy caresses crush
Out breath and every sight and sound, save
These Of love! o, dream love; 0, dr,nm

No waking word kiss of thine has tcld

sAvarage.
From the foregoing calculation it
will be seen that the entire amount OF
goods purchased at the prices named
amounts to S501, that the present du-
ty on these articles amounts to S189.27
and the duty as proposed by the Mills
bill would amonnt to $104.99, which
deducted from the rate of duty under
the present duty would be a net gain
of $S4.29.
A farmer or any other laboring
man has but to read the above state
ment to show him III the most convin-
cling manner how himself and family
are being robbed from year to year by
cur protective tariff system.
At this rate, as will be seen. there
is saving under the Mills bill Of
$84.29 year, which in five years al
the same rate would amount to $421. Al
which would go a great ways with q
poor family toward buying piece o.
land or building home.

Lock Your Doors.

About o'clock yesterday morning
Jas. Adams, living on South Cedar
street, arose to let out some young
chickens and on returning to bed neg
lected to lock the kitchen door. The
evening before on retiring he had left
his vest hanging in the kitchen with
SO of his weeks earnings in the pocket.
About o'clock the family got up and
found the vest gone. The family slept
upstairs and so were oblivious of any
intruders being about the place.
The house of Mike Hines was also
broken into Saturday night and thor.
oughly rummaged. The entrance in
this case as in the other was made
through an unlocked door. Nothing
of value was taken.
1t is good policy to be overcareful il
locking up your houses nights. Thu
warm weather makes US careless; but
with so many sneak thieves about, dis
erection is a good thing to have in stock

Another Thief.

Under Sheriff Ellison arrived in the
city Tuesday with a thoroughbred
equine pilferer, Victor Stamey, alias
George Rogers.
Stamey, about a week ago stole a
good horse from S. Dunnet, living two
miles east of Solomon and skipped out.
He took the animal to the residence of
VIM. Bates in Buckeye township where
he was recognized, though he gave his
name as George Rogers. He then went
to Sutphen's Mills and traded the horse
for another which like fool he rode
back to Abilene. Here the authorities
jumped on to him and escorted the en-
bryo brigand to the county Jail where
he languishes, awaiting examination.
Stamey is but eighteen years old and
has already begun to realize the rocki-
ness of the way of the trlnsgressor.
While there is no excuse for being a
criminal, it is certainly deserving of
credit to be shrewd one; but when a
man makes botch of the job he de-
serves ridieule as well as punishment.

AN UPWARD STEP.
A. z. Bishop & Company's New Dry
Goods Emporium-A Look at the
Past of This Prosperous Firm.

nSI Va AA4o AOo HSAOho - IL LII
The most prOfusely decorated store
front in the city has called everybody's
attention to the new location of A. E.
Bishop and Company. That people
have not been slow to investigate the
interior of the mammoth dry goods es-
tabliShment has been proved by the
unprecedentedly large sales made by
the firm during the past few days. 1t
has required the services Of eight of
the best clerks of the city to wait on
the throngs that have crowded to the
store intent upon securing the bargains
offered. The firm now has the largest
stock of dry goods of all kinds in the
county, the entire stock of G. c. Sterl
& Co. having been purchased by Mr..
Bishop and consolidated with that on
his own overlooking shelves. Two
doors are loaded with goods. On the
first is a large assortment of staple and
fancy dry goods, mems furnishing
goods, ladies shoes, etc, while upstairs
is the millinery department, comprising
hats, ribbons, ETC., under the efficient
management of trained milliners and
clerks; also the cloak department, hav-
ing full line of the most expensive as
well as the cheaper grades of cloaks,
shawls, etc. Both departments are
elegantly furnished, carpeted and par
titioned so as to give customers the
best possible service.
Mr.. Bishop, the head Of this monster
establishment, has probably risen more
rapidly than any young man in the
city, having made his own successes
and owing only to himself the advance
ment he has made.
Mr.. Bishop came to Abilene in 1879
from Illinois, "a comparative stranger in
the city and with his own way to make.
He first worked for J. B, Case when
that gentleman was located ON South
Cedar street, His first work was that
of delivery boy but he rose, step by
step, until when case moved into his
mammoth double store, Mr.. Bishop
was chief book-keeper and confidential
manager of the establishment. Soon
after, he branched out for himself by
opening with new stock of dry goods
in the Wilson building, where he con-
tinued with steadily increasing trade
until the past week, when be purchased
Sterl Sc Company's stock, as we have
said, consolidated it with his own and
moved into the Sterl store. He now
carries over s25, 900 worth of dry goods,
etc.-the largest stock in the county,
Mr.. Bishops career is only an exam
pie of what young man may accom-
plish by industry, uprightness and a
head for business. He may well he
proud of his eminent success and of
the large establishment over which he
presides.
To get an adequate idea of his new
store and immense stock call and look
it over. You will be more than well
come, whether you purchase or not.
