on the East, and the Allegheny range
on the West. Roanoke has history
that reads like q romance.
American enterprise has no brighter
gem in its diadem OF achievements
than busting and picturesque Roanoke.
The growth of Roanoke is upon solid
basis as evidenced By the thrift and

DANvILE, Aug. 22.-George Early
and Byrd Woods colored, were hanged
at Rocky Mount. Franklin county, to-
day for arson committed last October.
During the gubernatorial campaign
Gen. Malone spoke at Rocky Mount
and the party managers endeavored to
procure large tobacco warehouse for
him to speak in. but the owners refused
to allow the house to BIZ used for that
purpose. A week later Lieut.. Gov. Massey
spoke in the house, and that night it
was burned. The flames spread to
other houses, and the business part of
the town was destroyed. 1t was shown
that four negroes-George Early. Byrd
Woods, W. N. Brown and Mamie
WOods-set fire to the house because of
their indignation at the refusal of the
owners to permit the Republican meet
ing therein. They were convicted and
sentenced to be hanged = Early and
Woods to-day and Brown and the woman
on the 10Th of September. All the
preparations for to-day's execution
having been completed, Early and
Woods were brought from their
cells at 1915 and the death war
rant was read to them. Both made
short talks, but neither made con-
fesslon. Woods said his own race had
lied on him and brought him to the gal
lows, but he was innocent. Early talked
only five minutes and said ne lied On the
trial, but had been forgiven. Both said
they were prepared to die and would
soon be in glory. The execution was
private and the drop fell at 1885.
Neither mans neck was broken. The
bodies were turned over to the friends
for burial.

Republican claim there is a reason for
passing the force bill, thenit was the most
AFFECT cowardice on the part of the Re-
publican senators to consent to lay
it over until another session of con-
gress, If it isn't bill that ought to be
passed now, it is not bill that ought to
be passed in December. Ii there were
any demand for such legislation, the
November elections would be the time
it would be needed. If it is not needed
at The coming elections, it will not be
needed afterward.
BY the action of the Republican SEN
ate in this matter the Republican party
is convicted of insincerity. All the talk
of the party leaders about the neces-
sIty for purifying the ballot in the
Southern states is now confessed to
have been claptrap.
Furthermore, the Republican party
is committed by this action to the posi-
ton that an increase of taxation in
order to protect the manufacturers is
of paramount Importance to purifying
the ballot. The Republican senators
have deliberately agreed to lay aside the
election bill in order that the MCKINLEY
tariff bill may be passed.
