Mckinney and McKenney

The Hon. James F. Epes, the present
member of the United States House OF
Representatives, long ago declined TO Offer
Tor reelection. and the only two candi-
dates now mentioned in connection with
the Democratic nomination In the Fourth
Petersburg District are Ex-Governor
Philip W. Mckinney. of Prince Edward
county. and w. Il. McKenney, Esq, OF
Petersburg. Neither OF these gentlemen
Is at work for the nomination-neither Is
seeking it-but either would accept 1t II
rendered him.
They are both good men, both are sound
and able Democrats, and both have the
confidence OF the voters OF the Southside.
Our convention. when II meets. will have
10 weigh carefully the claims Of each and
fudge which one Of the two is best
suited for the particular work In hand.
There is a large negro majority In the
Fourth District, but In recent years. "off
AMI on the Democrats have received the
support OF hundreds of these voters. and,
with the Walton law In operation, we
ought 10 be able 10 get many others TO
cooperate with us-that Is. with their
best friends. the white Democratic farm
ers and businessmen of the southside.
One OF the chief reasons which induced
our General Assembly 20 pass the Walton
elec,ion-bill Was that security might be
afforded 10 coiored men who might wish
20 vote the Democratic ticket without in
curing the displeasure OF the politicians
OF their race. Hitherto II has not been
easy for colored man TO vote our ticket
without the fact becoming known. And
when the fact was known. usually the
man was ostracized and maltreated by
members OF his race. or late years the
herceness Of this sort OF political persecu,
ton has somewhat abated. but the prae.
tice still prevails. as Of old. In many coun.
ties
Under the Walton law, II negro wishes
TO vote with the Democrats he can do

ticket 70 be voted. and that will be the

Simon Connolly; that he was In the yard

THE COTTON CROP.
There Is naturally much interest In the
condition of the cotton crop. The largest
farmer in Harnett county tells me the
damage. due mainly 10 excessive rains
the first half of August. is 20 per cent.
MIR. Thompson, president Of the Raleigh
Cotton Exchange. says II IL not great on
stiff-clay lands. while in Johnston county
it is alleged that the damage is - per
cent. II is bis opinion that on light. sandy
lands the damage is 10 to p per cent.
and that on clay lands there will be a
good crop The Commissioner Of Agricul-
ture says he does not think the crop Will
be any larger than that of last season. He
says the damage TO the crop, according
TO estimate, runs all the way from % 10
80 per cent
STANDARD RATE.
The Railway Commission to-day notified
Vice President A. Il. Andrews, of the
Southern railway. that IT saw no good
reason why the standard freight-tariff
should not be enforced on the Western
North Carolina railway. since the con-
soldati0n of the lines leased or owned by
the late Richmond and Danville railway.
The commission. therefore. repeals all eX-
ceptions TO standard rates between SAILS

The government has obtained control OF
all Of the telephone lines in England.
and they are to be used as a part OF the
post-ofiice system. as the telegraph lines
are. For the present. however, only tele-
nhone trunk-lines will be operated. Later
on branch lines will be acquired or con-

This addition to its equipment makes
