THAT ANONYMOUS CIRCULAR.

An anonymous circular has been
sent out over the state, attacking
Judge Clark and Governor Fowle.
and stating that when they were
both candidates two years ago for
the nomination for Governor, Judge
Clark withdrew in Fowle's favor,
with the trade ahead that as soon
as Chief Justice Smith should die,
Governor Fowle should appoint
Judge Clark to the Supreme Court,
Chief Justice Smith died. and
Governor Fowle id appoint Judge
Clark Associate Justice Of the Su-
prone Court: but that gives no excuse
for such a cowardly attack against
these gentlemen, who say that there
is not shadow of truth in tAe
charges.
Judge McRae had been an asp.
rant for Supreme Court honors, but
since the publication Of the circular
referred to, he has withdrawn, He
says he cannot come before the
people against such true man as
Judge Clark, when such scurrilous
and cowardly attacks arc made
against his esteemed and hOnored
friend2.
We have not the space to print
the circular, in full, Among other
things it IS charged that Clark with
drew in Fowle's favor; that there
was an agreement between these
gentlemen to this effect; that Judge
Clark come to Raleigh from across
the mountains on the next train
after Chief Justice Smiths deatL:
tn Judge Clark is a kinsman of
Col, A. B. Andrews; chat be
was without much practice or
reputation before be came to the
bench.
The answers to these charges may
be summed up about as follows:
Any one who was at the convention
which nominated Gov. Fowle knows
that Judge Clark's friends were
divided, and perhaps as many went
to Alexander Qs to Fowle. Judge
Clark and Coy. Fowle both say there
was no agreement between them.
Judge Clach's appointment to the
Supreme Court was is months or
more after Fowle's nomination and
was appIauded by the press and the
people of the state. Judge Smith
died suddenly and had been on the
bench two days previous to his
death, and Judge Clark had been in
Raleigh a full week between two of
his courts at the time Of Judge Smith s
death. Judge Clark is no kinsman
Of Col. Andrews as She circular
charges; and his standing as q learn
ed lawyer and impartial Judge is
recorded in the minds of the people
and the newspaper files all over
North Carolina.

At night Miss Lcssie Soathgate,

Music, gave the Association a de
lightful entertainment of music and
recItations. There is not q town in the

produce an entertainment Of superior
merit. Miss Southgate, "a daughter
of James Southgate, Esq, for several
years principal Of the school at
DIN, and now with his son, Mr.. JAS g.
II. Soatbgate, in the insurance bust

pliohed musician, and is very highly
appreciated at home, as is proved by
the fact that she has Lately declined
an offer OF $4,000 per year from New
York. The editors and others of the
audience enjoyed this evening very
greatly-no features Of it more than
the piano performances of Miss
southgate ard MjssAnnie Peay, and
the recitaticns Of Miss Ida NJ. Carr
and Miss Bessie Tanning. The

EgGABbS HsG TAXATION.

We clip the following from the
Greensboro Patriot:
Last spring Morchead township
adopted the MeckIenburg road law
and since then the work Of improving
the roads Of that township has been
rapidly pushed. The good roads that
are now being made throughout that
township, will convince any one that
the only waY to have q good public
road Is TO work it By taxation.
The township has bought a cham,
pion ro2d machine, a scraper, steel
four, horse road pillow, with four fine
mules, and necessary picks. shovels.
etc. This outfit, with four men, does
the work of sixty hands.
The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1890-08-07

The roads already made arc from
Greensboro to Battle Ground 6
miles; to the township line, via Me
bane place,6 miles; Mrs DR.. Weather
ly's 3 miles, from township line near
Jamestown, two miles this way.
The roads already worked are IN
surpassed by any in the Countrywide
average width is IS feet, ditched on
each side and thrown up III the mid
die and well graded.
The work is being pushed daily
and most Of the roads in the township
viii be put IN first class condition
before bad weather sets in.

manner as her citizens did? Can
such a town be kept down where its

future? No, thousand times no
There is not a city throughout the
State that has made more rapid

JEWISH FESTIVITIES.
New Years Day and the Feast C Rosh Hashoua 10 be Celebrated.

| New Years Day and the Feast oi
 Rosh Hashona 10 be Celebrated.
 Last evening was New Years eve tC those of the Israelitish faith, and it was appropriately celebrated by those people in this city and throughout the country. To-day occurs one of the principal feasts in the Israelitish faith and the day will be religiously observed by the Jewish people throughout the world. Rev. Dr. Keeberg breaches one of his specially fine dis courses at the Court street temple. The day is the first of the Jewish year 5651, and in the Hebrew tongue is called Rosh Hashona. The service at the synagogue, besides the usual religious ceremonies, will also consist of the blowing of the shofar, or rams horn, a custom established by Moses as mentioned in Leviticus xiii, 24 25, and faithfully performed ever since in every synagogue throughout the world. Rosh Hashona has another significance than that of the first day of the new year. It is the beginning of the ten Penitential days which end with the feast of Yom Kip pur, or the feast of the Atonement, on September 24, and it is expected that all devout Hebrews shall refrain from work on that day and spend the time in doing good deeds and laying the foundation for bet ter life for the year to come. The feast of Tabernacles will be observed on the 29th inst, in commemoration of the journey through the wilderness.
