Fraternally,
FROM Mr..
He Makes a Correction and Says We
"Have ~Impeached His Politi-
cal Character"
G.. T. BAINEs, Sec'y
O SPRINGS, N. @.

HOLLY SPRINGS, N. @.
Mr.. EDIToR:-Since you have i'm
peached my political character in your
paper Of the 18th of May, and misrep-
resented me, 1 ask you now to publish
my statement in regard to the charges
you allege against me politically.
I believe an American Christian
ought to be honest in his politics as in
his religion; in fact I believe the Bible
is the foundation of true religion, and
the power the American citizen has of
self government comes from the same
source, and when we learn the funda-
mental principles and embark on the
ship of idolatry as a Christian nation,
we will land in the city of destruction,
both the freedom of worship and self
government. You say in your editorial
of May 18th that you find that I was
chairman of the Democratic Executive
Committee of my township last year;
at the primary in May 60 or 70 men
met, you were informed, and elected
delegates to the county convention.
Afford and five or six others, cut and
dried curiosities, were not named
among the elected, however. So they
bolted the primary and elected them
selves delegates, came to the county
convention and did their best to con-
test the seats Of the regularly elected
delegates. Now the fact is: I was not
Chairman of the Democratic Executive
Committee of my township last year,
but Mr.. W. B. Jones was, and I con
tended at the meeting referred to that
said Jones was the chairman of the
citizens meeting by virtue of his Office
according to the plan of organization,
which was objected to by those who
called themselves members of the Peo-
ple's party, and J. D. Maroon put in
his stead. l then asked that a COM
mittee be appointed to select dele ties
to be presented to the convention, and
that said delegates be elected in accord
with the spirit of the resolution passed
in the Democratic convention of Wake
county of 1890, in which these Peoples
party men participated. My request
was refused, when I and several others
walked out OF the meeting before any
delegates were elected or other proceed
ings had. After they had elected dele
gates, all of their own stripe, and en-
dorSed the est. ToTis demands - as
they called them, several of us who
were Democrats, and who wanted rep
sentation from here in the Wake
County Democratic Convention, held
a meeting and appointed delegates who
contested the seats of these Peoples
party folks, but when we went before
the committee on credentials these
folks said they as good Democrats

NOT MANY.

It is stated that President Cleveland
caught a blue fish weighing forty
pounds the other day. That is nothing.
He caught over five million suckers in
one day last November, weighing from
10 to 800 pounds each.-ProgTessiUe
Farmer.
How many would he have caught if
he had used then the little bottle shaped
continuance that he is now using on his
big fishing sprees7-Edggfeld,. s. O.,
Farmer.
Well, not many. A dose of the SEQ,
ond administration and it's consequent
ruin would now cause many good men
to vote otherwise. The bottle trick
wouldn't work.

WARNERSVILLE, N. q.
Mr.. EDITOR:-Last night my house
was burglarized and I am still at the
mercy of the robber. Is there no help
from the authorities7 Must I sit here
and e my effects carried off before
my eyes9
know the name of the robber, but
there is no court to prosecute him, no
law defining the crime. His name is
William Tariff, an illegitimate son, it
is said, Of John Sherman. He has been
prowling around for years, apparently
without any means of earning a live
Lhood. But when he wants anything
he always gets it. Sheriff Cleveland
said eight years ago that he would
have the rascal behind the bars in less
than no time, but the Sheriff continued
collecting taxes so long that he dtdnT
have time to arrest any criminals.
Last fall he was elected again and sala
he would serve that warrant if it bustea
every button off his coat. I hear tnas
old John Sherman told him it WouldnI
go well with him if he arrested his SOL
It is whispered around that Sherman
is on the Sherif's bond. I don't know
how true that is, but I do know tnas
the Sheriff has had a thousand cnanGg1S
to put handouts on that rascal WIZ
liam, but he doesn't do it.
I tried to get the legislature to tax
some action. They said it was beyGnor
their jurisdiction. Congress is gettLn5
ready to cut a figure, but all the m aeor
bers I have written to tell me that In1s
can do nothing until the Sherln enV ~
cutes the warrant, and then they am az

CAUCUS POINTERS.

Another animated caucus was held yes.
terday afternoon at o'clock by the mayor
and the aldermen and the first topic con-
Sidered was the financial status of San
Antonio and the remedies necessary to
be applied, and policy was outlined that
the administration hopes will be success
full in taking San Antonio out of bank
ruptcy.
The scramble is still going on over Mar
tin Locke and Ed PdncOast for city en-
gineer.
The position Of Recorders clerk has
been fixed, provided the gentleman settled
upon in the caucus will accept.
Mr.. ESteban Sandoval, the market
master appointed by the city council at
the last meeting of that body, qualified at
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
1t was intmated that the caucus had
concluded to reconsider his appOin ment
at its next meeting, as he had not quail
fed. but it is now probable that no such
action will be taken, because Mr.. Sando-
val could not be removed from office after
having qualified unless some specific
charges were made against him.
Mr.. Kehoe, one OF the candidate for
chief of fire department is man in the
fnll vIgor of life and il appointed, would

fore the caucus.
