Rrower's Discourtesy.

DALTON, N. G., Oct. 81 will
give you my experience in staying all
night with the Hon. John M. Brewer.
| was driving a Winston livery team
at the time Mr. Brewer was elected to
the State Senate from Surry county
I took him home from Winston, and
the following shows how he treated
ne: / arrived at hia house about 7
O'Clock and put my team up and ent
to the house to get my supper. 1
knocked at the door and Mr.. Brewer
him I was the man that brought him
home, and wanted my supper. Mr..
Brewer says, We don't have supper
this time Of night" L then asked him
where I should sleep. He told me to
go down to the negro cabin and they
(the negroes would show me where to
sleep. When / went down to the
negro cabin they told me that Brewer
said for me to sleep with them, but
the negro said be had more respect for
q white man than to tell him any such.
The negro told me to go back to the
house and maybe Brewer would let
me stay in the house. But he would
not do it, and had to stay with the
negroes and sleep on some old wagon
sheets and plant-bed cloths / write
you this to show you what respect
such men as the Hon. John M. Brow
er have for the poor White man, and I
hope that he will never have the
chance of being elected to any Office

MoREHEAD AND BRowER.

Messrs. Morehead and Brewer
spoke in Winston last Thursday,
in Browns Opera House, to a rath-
er small audience.
Mr.. Brewers speech is best de-
scribed by saying that he ''rattles
away" jumping from one subject to
another without much argument.
Col. Morehead reasons well and
is much better posted. He made
laughing stock of Brewer all the
way through.
At Bethania, the day before, the
Republicans arranged a procession
in honor of Brewer. As it hove in
sight, it was found to be composed
of few whites, more negroes and
two little bulls. Referring to this,
Col. Morehead said: The three RS.
"Rum, Romanism and Rebellion, "
once used against the Democratic
party, carried its banners to victory
and I'll tell you, fellow citizens, the
three BIS are going to reclaim the
9th district this time-and these
three BIS stand for Blaine, Brewer
and the Bullsi
The impression left on most of
the hearers was that Col. Morehead
is gentleman whose ability is in
fnitely superior to that of Mr..
Brewer.
If the people don't elect Col.
Morehead instead of the man who
now misrepresents them, they'll say
by their votes that they prefer igno-
rant demagoguery rather than intel
ligent craftsmanship.

the author, Mr.. Jerome Dowd, of Sal
isbury, for a copy Of his admirable
book, Sketches of the Prominent
Living North Carolinians which, con-
tains biographical outlines of the lives
of 149 OF the most distinguished gentle
men of all callings. 1t is mine ofinfor-
nation and we don't know of better
book for a father to place in the hands
of his boy. The book ought to be
patronized and THE SENTINEL hopes
that there will be found many North
Carolinians who will buy aud read it.

COUNTY TICKET
ANOTHER; RADICAL LIE NAILED.

The Republican leaders are try
ing to scare the laborer by saying
that low tariff means low wages. In
some places it scares the working
man into Republican ranks and then
again it doesn't. It didn't do it in
Newark, n. J. the other day and
in several Connecticut towns, and it
will not do it wherever the labor
ing man is intelligent enough to read
and think for himself, wherever he
hasn't masters over his thoughts
as well as over his muscles
When he reads for himself he sees
that the Democratic Mills Bill sim
ply proposes to chop off part of the
enormous profits of the northern
manufacturer and make him take a
reasonable profit on his goods. This
will not hurt wages and cannot, yet
the Radical orators are lifting the
scare crow of Glow wages" all over
the country Right here in Fol- syth
county they're raising. the cry. They
know it will never do to talk about
New England labor-it's too far
away, SO they've invented a yarn
about Mr.. Fries cotton mills, in Sa-
lem, as the following letter from a
subscriber of The SENTINEL at
Abbott's Creek, this county, will
explain.
y EDITOR SENTINEL:-There is a ru-
NOR in lower Forsyth and upper Da-
wilson, that Henry Fries, ST., has
said that if the Mills Bill should be-
come law it would not stop him from
running his factories, but he would
have to cut his hands wages one-half.
We wish Mr.. Fries to let the reading
public know what he did say, or wheth-
er he said anything at all. 1t may be
a campaign "whopper' but it is doing
its work all the same.
Now you who hear the statement,
just read what Mr.. Fl. w. Fries
says of it in the following letter:
SALEM, n. c., Oct. II, 18SS.-MR.
V. W. LONG, Dear Sir-The rumor
mentioned in the letter is utterly with
out foundation
If the Mills Bill becomes law we
shall certainly not stop the factory
and certainly not cat the hands wa
ges one half, or even one cent. Tie
Mills Bill gives all manufacturers as
much protection as they ought to ask.
1t is strange how solicitous some poll
ticians are for the welfare of the man
utacturers and what disreputable
means they will use to carry an cleo,
ton. Respectfully yours,
FL. w. FRIES.
By way of comment, THE SENTI-
MEL has just this word to the voters:
Don't you believe any of the rad
zeal assertions until you KNOW they
are true. Like the statement made
about Mr.. Fries, many of them are
lies made from the whole cloth, cir
culated to deceive the voters Of the
country.

AS EXPLANATION,

What is this nervous trouble"
with which go many seem now t.
be afflicted If you will remember
a few years ago the WORD Malaria
was comparatively unknown,-to-
day it is as common as any word in
. the English language, yet this word
covers only the meaning Of anoth-
er word used by our iorefa hers in
times past. So it is with nervous
diseases, as they and Malaria are
intended to cover what our grand
fathers called Biiiousness, and are
all caused by troubles that arise
from diseased condition of the
Liver which in performing its tunc-
tons finding it cannot dispose of
the bile through the ordinary chan
mel is compelled to pass it off
through the system, causing ner-
yous troubles, Malaria, Bilious Fe
yer, etc. You who are suffering
can well appreciate cure. We
recommend Green's August Flow
Ell. It's cures are. marvellous.

The Senate Bill takes nine dollars
from the government where it takes
one from the manufacturers. The
Democratic party doesn't believe in
letting few manufacturers get enor-
mousIy rich at the expense of the PEG
pie The Republican party does.
That's just the difference and the peo-
pie must say which is right.

Stokes COUNTY NOMINEES.

The SENTINEL wants to say to
all the world that Stokes county has
done herself proud in putting such a
Democratic ticket in the field. The
SENTINEL knows of all the candi-
dates and is personally acquainted
with several and we tell the voters
Of Stokes county now that they
couldn't have found worthier men.
Next week we shall publish let
ter from Stokes giving ashort sketch
of Mr.. j. G. Ell. Mitchell, who is
going to be our next Senator in this
district. He is man whom the
voters of Forsyth will be glad to ac-
knowledge as their representative in
the next Senate. He was soldier,
he is a farmer, man of decided
ability, and thoroughly honorable
gentleman.
Heis nominated as the best man
by party composed Of a majority
Of the best people Of the district.
Now the question for the people to
decide is this: Do we want such a
representative or do we want man
who will draw his votes from the ne
groes, and the ignorant and preju-
diced populace which in great meas
IRE make up the Republican party Z

recognized among the ASSISTANTS a prom
inent young man, Thomas Courtney, the
son of one of the leading physicians of
of the county. He Immediately sought
the arrest of young Courtney, who. fear
ing trouble, left for parts unknown.
Nothing further was heard of the yonng
man until recently, when he was located
at Fort Scott, Kas., and arrested, and
under requisition from Gov. Gray he is
being brought back.
The news enraged the young mans
friends, and they wreaked vengeance on
Williams. The report says they went to
his house, and, being refused admittance,
broke down the door. Williams fired
into the crowd, woun6ing a couple of
men. The mob then tied Mrs. Williams
to the bed, aud took him into the yard
and tied him to a tree. Upon Williams
refusal to make a sworn statement exon
Grating young Courtneyof future charges,
they logged him until he became uncon-
scious, and then left. Their victim was
later found in a dying condition.
A very strong feeling has sprung up
against the repeated optrages OF the
white Caps 1t will certainly aggra-
yate the feeling against young Courtney,
who will arrive at Leavenworth in charge
of a sheriff.

with small gloves, in the opera house
hall early Sunday morning. johnson,

to fight with, but they used them after a
fashion that wonld put many so-called

They smashed each other all over the
stage, and there were four clean knock
downs In the three rounds. Their best
tactics were shown in lodging the swing

unabls to do this with any degree OF ac-

Boyd had made some remarks rejecting

meeting Boyd, backed him into a corner,
and, shaking his fist under his nose,
promised to put a head on him, and to
denouuce him and his company on the
floor OF the house if his conduct was re-

The spectators eagerly looked for @

peaceful, and no blood was shed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6,-Capital offenses
have nearly disappeared from the statute
books, but the house judiciary commit
tee have found one, a relic of 1904, which
still survives, and which the committee
thinks should, be abolished. 1t is the
law fixing death, and death only, as the
penalty for wrecking a vessel in order
TO obtain the Insurance. The com
mittee says; Experience has shown that
many cases arise where punishment by
imprisonment or fine would be ade-
quate to the gravity of the %offense, and
where the penalty of death would be
simply shocking. The result has been
that in many cases juries refused to con-
vict, ven when guilt was proved, as the
only way to prevent u greater eyil-inhu-
man punishment. In the interest of
justice, as we'll as humanity, we think
the law ought to be changed"
