The Best Republicans Call Him Traitor
and Refuse to Support Him.


From, the Madisoa Netosl
We have received letter. append
ed below, from + rmer, living near
Madison, whose R-publicanism car
not be impeached, bat whose Brewer
ism is not very stron,t. The name of
the writer can be fur ished if necessa-
ry, and he can personally give many
more reasons than tn Sc mentioned,
for opposing Brewer.
Here is the letter:
Madison, n. c.. Aug. 18th.
ED. MADISON News: / am a true
Republican, and have always been
one. | did all in my power to elect
Mr.. Brewer to Congress both times he
ran, but this is one of the times that 1
cannot vote for him. His support of
the Federal Election Bill, his action
in regard to the Madison postoffice
and his various tricky methods do not
commend him to my favor. I learn
that he left his post in Washington
and brought some of his pets with him
to Greensboro to help him get the
nomination for the third term. If
Thos. Settle, Jr., had received the
nomination would have done all in
my power for him, but none Of Brow
er in mine. Mr. J. NJ. will stay at
home this time without doubt.

From the Salisbury Hatchmonl
Solicitor Long is strong advocate
of law being passed by the next leg
islature giving the judges the power
to send persons convicted Of petit cases
direct to contractors or other persons
who have. convicts under their care,
instead of sending them to Jail for
thirty, sixty or ninety days. 1t is an
imposition on the law abiding citizens
and tax payers that they should be in.
jured by the evil doors and then be in
suited by having to pay for boarding
them in Jail for several months. The
expense of keeping jail birds is no
small matter and they should be made
to pay, their own board by work.

-AQuEsTIoN FOR THE PEOPLE.

Solicitor Thos. Settle, in his speech
at Dobson, said that he opposed the
Force bill. Mr.. Barber asked him if
he would vote for Brewer. He tried
to evade, but Barber pinned him
down and he said he would.
Now if Mr.. Settle really is opposed
to the Force bill, how can he consis-
tently support Brewer, who voted for
it and received the thanks of the
North Carolina Republican club for
his efforts in behalf Of the internal
measure?
Mr.. Settle says he is against the
bill, but votes talk louder than words
and when he votes for Brewer he vir-
tually votes in favor of the bill.
Will the people who love liberty
and fair play vote for Brewer? If
not, then will they vote for Settle, who
is trying to elect Brewer?

One Sign that He Could Read.
From the Henderson Gold Leqf.l

Our friend Mr. Charley Raney, of
Kittrell, tells us one which is too
good to lose. Coming down on the
train from Greensboro the other day
a lady with two small children were
also aboard. Passing each station she
was asked by the inquisitive young
sters what certain buildings were, and
had to read the signs for them. She
had pointed out all the mills and fac
tories along the line until Durham
was reached. Passing Dukes cigar
cite factory they wanted to know what
that was, and then the snuff factory,
prize houses, ETC. Finally the train
stopped opposite the Blackwell Dur
ham Bull smoking tobacco factory.
Looking through the window one
bright little fellow saw the big pict
ures that stand out so cons icuously
on the front part of the building,when
he rapturously exclaimed: 90, mama,
and there's a CIV factory"

A Suicide In Stokes.
[ From the Greensboro Patriot.l

Early yesterday morning the resi-,
dents at Jewels Store, Stokes county.
were startled by the report of rifle
proceeding from the interior of the
residence of Jack .Lackey, followed by
the screams of woman. Upon in
vestigation, Lackey was found dead on
the floor with bullet in his brain and
l still smoking rife lying by his side.
at is said that the domestic relations OF
Lackey and his wife have net been
very harmonious, as his wife was flu
riously Jealous Of him. Lackey was
about 80 years Of nge, and, though
not habitual drinker, would once in
a while get ON spree. He had been
to Winston with load of tobacco and
returned home last Wednesday eve
ming. 1t is supposed that he and his
wife had been quarreling, when Lack
ey determined to get out of the "frying
pam" at all risks, and snatched down
his rifle and put a bullet into his
head.

An Improbable Yarn.
[From the Cou,.ier-Journai. ]

Nobody really believed the story
that Uncle Jerry Rusk was wearing a
sash. He might for few days wear
a silken wrapping of some sort, just to
encourage the COCOON business among
our depressed farmers, but he would
never do it to merely ornament his
already graceful figure.

The Remains of a Monster.
[Orford Ledger.l

The bones of some huge monster
are found within the borders of this
county. One of these bones is of con-
siderable size; it spans Fishing Creek,
which forms the boundary line be-
tween Halifax and Nash counties, and
is firmly embedded on each shore.
The length of the bone is unknown,
as no one has ever tried to find out.
The creek where this bone crosses is
twenty feet wide. The species of ami
NAL to which these bones belong is
not known, but are thought to be a
part of the skeleton of some prehisto-
ric animal of immense size.

LIT" AND "LITT1NG."

1t is a remarkable fact how many
people in this world love to be with
what they think is the majority, and
OF what they think is the popular
side. They had rather drift with the
current than resist the stream. Espe-
cially is this the case with those who
desire office, and it is very natural, too,
for in this great country Of ours it is
presumed that the majority rule, and
ii i man wants office he must get
wl.er,. H." can secure the most votes.
Some try to ride the fence until they
can determine upon which side to get,
others do not mind changing sides. In
this little family quarrel we have been
having there has been some fence rid
ing and some hopping over, but by
this time we suspect most Of the boys
have "lit.n Friend Bacon, Of the
Edgefeld Chronicle, has young
friend who has been taking notes on
this subject. We very much fear that
Brother Tillman is not going to have
offices enough to go round, and if he
lops off all those he says he will, it will
be too bad for many who cannot be
supplied. But in Newberry the lines
have been pretty sharply drawn, and
there has not been much chance for
fence riding. At any rate we do not
know OF any, at least not lately. Here
is what Editor Bacon says on this sub
ject:
We have young friend who is an
anti-Tillnlan man, and who amuses us
immensely day by day by informing
US who has finally "lit." This refers
10 men in our own community, who
have been long agonizing on the fence,
the sharp and jagged fence, but who
have finally ''lit'-on the Tillman
side. Many have been rudely torn by
cruel splinters in their long and un-
n )py ride; and, alas! even after they
haze "lit," they do not find rest.
Should Ben Tillman be elected-and it
certainly looks now as if he would
gangrene aud blood-poison will be
fearfully widespread throughout Edge
field. Ben has not, nor can he make
offices enough to 60 round; and the
majority of his men who do not get
office, will be seized Immediately with
gangrene or blood-poison. Ben's "lep-
rosy" among the State officials will be
very light matter compared to the
gangrene and blood-poison among
Bens unrewarded henchrlen.

Delegate w. H. Hunt, Jr., read the
following report as the action of the
committee, which report was adopted
on the motion of Delegate S. Pope:
The committee on credentials ap-
pointed to consider the apportionment
of delegates representing the two clubs
representatives of the two clubs ap-
peared before the committee and pre-
sented their club rolls; Club No. hay
ing roll of % members, and No. , a
roll of 81 members. According to the
rolls Club No. is entitled to three dele
gates, and No. , is entitled to 8 dele
gates. The only question made before
the committee was as to the right Of
certain members to withdraw from
Club No. and 60 into Club No ,. AS
the constitution is silent on the point,
and as the members of Club No. ], who
withdrew did so before delegates were
elected to this Convention, we recon-
mend that delegates representing them
be seated.
Delegate S. Pope moved that the
TEMPORARY President be made the per-
manent President, which motion was
unanimously adopted.
Delegate 5. Pope moved that County
Chairman w. D. Hardy be elected
Vice-President. Adopted.
Delegate Jno. W. Scott moved that
Jas. S. McCarley be elected Assistant
Secretary, which was adopted. No
temporary Assistant Secretary was
elected although Mr.. McCarley acted
in that capacity.
Delegate S. Pope moved that the
rules Of the House OF Representatives
govern the deliberations of the COnven-
ton, and that no delegate he permitted
to speak but twice to any question and
that no speech be longer than five
minutes without unanimous consent.
Adopted.
Delegate J. R. Irwin then.nominated
the following delegates and aiternates
to the August State Convention:

Before taking his seat he read the
the same names from another sheet of
paper, only in different order, and
Nominated them as delegates to the
September State Convention, subject
to the action of the August Conven-
ton. These delegates had already
been elected by the caucus mentioned
above and it was only necessary to
ratify that action in the Convention.
Delegate c. T. Wyche, there being
no other nominations, moved that the
rules be suspended and that these gen
tlemen be elected by acclamation, and
it was done.

Now that it seems to be the plan and


purpose of the supporters of Capt.
Tillman to repudiate the primary this
year and to have the convention, it
seems to US that it is time for Capt.
Tillman to stop talking about self-gov-
ernment and advocating this plan on
the stump. He made the first speech
of the campaign at Greenville, Oh June
10th, and on that occasion earnestly
advocated the primary and urged the
County Chairman of Abbeville, Col.
f. 3. Gary, who was present, and the
County Chairman of Greenville, who
was also present, and directed an ap-
peal to a member of the Executive
Committee of Anderson, who was pres
ent, to urge their respective counties to
have primaries for delegates to the
State Convention. He has advocated
the same thing in every other speech
he has made, but it seems now that it
is determined that the Convention is
good enough for this year. If so, then
he should stop advocating what he
does not want.
Circumstances do alter cases; there
can be no question about that.

that county and will be put up against
the Democrats in the November elec-
tions. There has not been as much
activity among the Republicansin in this
State since 1876 is seems to be develop
ing this year They never showed as
much interest in the matter Of securing
registration tickets even in presiden-
tial election year. The family quarrel
we are having has revived hope
amongst them. There will be need for
Democrats 10 get together before the
November elections. We fear, how
ever that they are getting further
apart. But We must not divide-we
cannot.
