wHvY q man is through with
his days work and is sitting
down resting in his home, he
cannot read the advertisements
on the fences, and the bills aud
circulars that were left on his
door step during the day have
blown away or been @destoyed.
He calls for the paper, and there
he finds the merchants an
nouncement, and with nething
to bother his mind, he reads
carefully, and then calls his
wife's attention to it, and they
decide to go to the merchants
store and examine what Is adj
vertised. This is a good time
to insert an advertisement in
the Sun.

ShuOk His Faith.

The doctrine Of a special pro-
violence that directs the every
day affairs of life has received q
severe set back in the case of
Rev. Webster Fuller, a Metho-
dist minister of Saltwater,
Oklahoma Territory. On the
Sunday preceding the election
he prayed publicly for the Lord
to direct him how to cast his
ballot on election. Early on
election day he went to the polls
and voted, as he thought, the
straight Democratic ticket. Af-
ter leaving the booth he stopped
TO hear some man explain the
method of stamping the ticket
under the Australian system,
and was Mortified to learn that
he had used the stamp wrong
and had really voted the Re-
publican ticket. He rushed
backed to the booth and wanted
to take his ticket out of the box
and change it, but was denied
the privilege.
This was the first Republican
vote he ever cast, His Repub-
lican friends are nightly a.
unused over the mistake, and
tell him that in answer to his
prayer the Lord had directed
his vote even against his own
wishes. But he views it diff
ferently, and declares that it
tends to shake his faith in a
experimenting and special prov
idence, inasmuch as the omnis-
cient being could never lend his
aid to such a set of scamps
as the Republican rapscalions.

A Bill That May DO Away Win
Alabama's Negro Vote.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. %.
"A bill was introduced in the
Legislature today which is
bound to attract a good deal of
attention throughout the coun-
try. If it becomes a law it will
practically do away with the
negro vote in Alabama. The
bill was introduced by Re
preventative Brewer, of
Lowndes county, who has been
in the Legislature fourteen
years and State Auditor four
years. He is looked upon as the
financial authority of the State,
and has written a history of
Alabama, as we'll as two ex-
cellent novels. The bill
provides that "all persons
whose State and county taxes,
as assessed, do not amount to
Sc shall not be required to pay
the same if it be shown that
such person failed to vote at the
August and November elections
of the previous year"
This is the first attempt in
the history of Alabama to
legislate against the negro
votes who pay taxes exceeding
S5 a year. At the lowest CAL
culation so per cent of negro
voters would take advantage of
the opportunity Of saving S..
The negro vote of the last cleo
tion was 13G, 900, out of a total
of 100000. 1t can be seen that
the effect of this bill will be
widespread. Those most COM
petent to judge think it will do
away with the trouble which
so vexes the white people.
The bill was a surprise. Few
members expected anything of
the kind. 1t was the most
talked.about matter during the
day. The opinion seemed gen.
eral that the bill will pass.

hood that there was q man in

observing smart fellow tells Us
that there is both a man and a

don't know about that, but
there's one thing we do know in
our observations the last few
days; the "dsr'ters," as the old

pretty late several nights this

NORTH CAROLINA WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 80 1892.
THERE is a great deal of sound

THERE is a great deal of sound
wisdom in what the Statesville
Landmark says in regard to
magistrates who were appointed
by Democrats and then follow
ed the third party leaders in a
vain andbitter endeayor to de-
stroy the Democratic party. TO
our sorrow, there has, hereto
fore, been. too much dickery and
catering to a party that would,
if it had the chance, revolution
ize the fundamental principles
upon which the Democratic
party is formed. The article
from the Landmark, to which
We refer, closed with thispara-
graph:
"The office of magistrate,
while it may not be one of very
much profit, is a very impor-
tant one. Under our system of
county government they elect
our county commissioners, levy
our taxes and otherwise have
much to do with the business of
the county, and while those
who have gone off with the
Third party may be just as
honest and capable as they ever
were, common dscency would
suggest to them that they
should not hold office under a
party which they have tried to
destroy. The incoming Demo
cratic Legislature should see to
it, and doubtless will, that those
whose terms are expiring are
not again elected that they may
use the influence and prestige
which the Office gives them to
the injury of the party through
which they obtained it; and If
those whose terms do not ex-
pire have the self-respect they
ought to have they will resign
at once, for certainly no right
thinking man will desire to
hold Office under a party which
he hates as cordially as some of
them have shown they hated
the Democratic party"

PREsrDENf.ELECT Cleveland
Tuesday, in talking toa reporter
of the Associated Press, pre-
vious to starting on his trip for
rest and recreation, announced
his determination not to consid-
ar applications for Office prior
10 his Inauguration, and was
particularly emphatic in assert
iug tn;.t those WAC made ap-
plication at this time. either
orally or by letter, were not ad
vancing their interests a par
ticle. Ii is eminently proper
that Mr.. Cleveland should not
be annoyed by the importuni-
ties Of office seekers until after
he has assumed the duties of the
Presidency, and he has taken
the proper steps to let that fact
be known by using the Associat-
ed Press as a means for giving
wide publicity to his views.

A Hnmcsteai Isloter Acquitted

PITTsBURG, Nov. 2S.-The
first of the trials against the
Homestead strikers for the kill
ing of the PinkertOns in the
battle of last July, resulted to-
day IN the jury bringing in a
verdict of acquittal for Sylves-
ter Critchlow charged with the
murder of Conner, q Pinkerton
man. Critchlow had over a
dozen witnesses TO testify that
he was not present at the time
thus making out what the jury
evidently considered a good
alibi. CritchlOw was not re-
leased, being still held on a
charge Of riot. There are $50
Homestead strikers under iu-
dictment for treason. riot, con
spiracy or murder. The chances
Of convicting the men are not
generally considered first class,
there being many difficulties in
the way.

HOOPS PILLS cure constipation,
An Explanation.

Sufferers from nervous and chronic
diseases often wonder why their family
physician cannot cure them. Yet it is
only what might be expected when il is
considered that the family doctor sees
very few such cases. He spends
his time riding about among his
fever patients. 1t is the physi-
clan who makes a specially
of your particular disease to whom suf-
ferers should apply. This is what
makes of so much value to the sick the
generous offer of the eminent DR.. Greene
of 80 w. l4th Street, New York, the
great specialist in curing all forms Of
nervous and chronic diseases, to give
consultation and advice free. This well
known physician, the dIscoverer of the
wonderful DR.. Greeue's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, uses only
harmless vegetable remedies in
curing the sick. You who have
failed to be cured by your family doc
tor, write Immediately to DR.. Greene
description of your case, or send for a
symptom blank to I'll out, aud he will
return you a letter fully explaining
your disease, giving advice, etc, free Of
charge. Do not hesitate to write, for
he has cured thousands of cases like
yours aud will surely make you well.
