RALEIGH, n. q. July 4th.-On
last Friday the Raleigh Chamber of
Commerce passed strong calamity
whereases and resolutions, calling
upon the President to call an extra
session OF Congress TO repeal the
silver law and make money still
scarcer. But the amusing part comes
in the next day, when the deceit
full old whip-poor-will who presides
over the News L Observer, said that
great Grover had heeded the cry of
the people. 1t is possible that Mr..
Whip-poor-will does not know the
difference between bred aud stone.
noticed a few days ago that the
Charlotte Observer had some very
complimentary things to say of that
"blaok RADICAL" Mr. A. Brady, the
ex-postmaster of Charlotte. The
Observer actually said that it hoped
that the immaculate democrat"
Capt Robertson would be equally as
efficient In fact the Democratic
bosses are hugging up mighty close
to the "black radicals" all over the
State. What does it mean These
are the same black radicals that
Senator Vance said, two years ago,
should be driven out of the State
by fierce intolerance. 7-. ...- .
News came to this writer a few
days ago that certain prominent
Democrat had called upon a certain
prominent Republican and submitted
to him the rough draft of State
platform and asked how he liked it.
The Democrat told the Republican
that he would meet "them" half way
and stand on that Platform that
"they"could sweep the State.
Two machine Democrats were dis
cussing the political outlook few
days ago. Mr.. A. said:--I don't see
how we are going to win next time
You know the last time we had the
"force bill racke ," we could prom
ise the farmers that we would do
anything If we got chance. we had
more money to spend than we will
have next time, and you know that
with all this, We did not get ma
jority Of the votes. Mr.. B.-I admit
that the outlook is dog-gune gloomy,
but you must remember that sEaIl hell
can't beat q scared Democrat. What
We can't do one way we must do an
other Mr.. Al understand what
you mean, but you must remember
that We will never be able to manip-
ulate the votes again a. much as we
did last time. The people are now
on to the tricks and will not suffer it.
Mr.. B.-Well there is something in
in that. We must think about it
and be prepared with some scheme,
| know one now that viii work in a
few counties. That is when we
can't beat the Populists ourselves or
can't get the help of the negro to do
it, then we must let the negro or
Republican be elected, provided we
can control him in the Legis lature.
Mr.. A.-But will it not hurt the
party that has hollered out ''negro
domination" and claimed to be the
white mars party? Mr.. R.-Hurt
the party. 1t had better be hurt than
beat. / tell you we are bound to
have nigger's help one way or the
other to beat them farmers.

For three years large swarm of
bees has been occupying one of the
large oaks in the square which sur
rounds the State Capitol. The
Governor could have IA tube inserted
with faucet to regulate the supply

The Governor of South Carolina
could have his little key sent over,
or he could bring it. ~
