get uneasy that lying only will not
save the machine, so try to scare Con.

Mr. Forbes whips the Editor The Reflect
or---tau-e, Personal Abuse In the Col
uIns of his Paper.


Grernylll". y. c., April II, '93.
EDITOR CAUCASIAN For some
scousldcra bile time the editor of the
2GrccuvIllc Reflector has been very
slouun ,latiyc IN has articles on the
EfOpuhsts In TINS county, To such
! san extent has he carried this extreme
BITTERNESS that even his strongest
SDomocratIc friends were beginning
Sto condemn his course as unpolitic
Sln the extreme. Mr.. a. A. Forbes,
Zone Of the best men III the county,
BON account of his populistic ideas
Shas, on a few occasions caught the
4 lurs of his muddy pen. Mr.. Forbes
mot being willing TO submit to his
false and abusive personalities long
scr, quietly informed the editor last
EMonday that unless he desisted from
I personal attacks upon him he would
! give HIM genteel thrashlng. Where
upon the editor Informed him that
he would use his name whenever he
saw proper so to do, and Immediately
IA fsticuiT ensued in which the editor
scame out at John Gilpin rate deci-
fdedly at the small end of the horn.
4 sIhe fracas began in front of the
scourt house but the Reflector man,
seeing that it would be foolish for
shm to undertake TO stand his
/ ground, decided that it would be bet
ter for him to depend on his rate of
speed for protection, as Mr.. Forbes
J is an old man and could not keep up.

Eof Deeds when friends torfered and
( parted them before any serious dam
Eage was done.
The time has been in North Caro-
lima when an editor of rank Demo
kcratic sheet could curse out and
abuse the Radical party and the ne
kgroes, and that time may be now,
but the honest yeomanry Of the
country who have shown that they
were willing to lay down their lives
for their country's honor, will GER
stainly not be less indicative in the
protection of their private and per
sonal rights and privileges. Il.

THE POLK MEMORIAL FUND.
How to Raise the Fund.---A Little Sum
From Each One VIII Suffice

How to Raise the Fund.---A Little Sum
From Each One VIII Suffice.
Mr.. EDIToR:--A neat little sum has
already been paid in for the purpose
|of erecting splendid monument at
the grave of our lamented leader.
Col. L. l.. Polk, in Oakwood Gene,
|tery, Raleigh. Some has been pledg-
led but has not yet come in.
In order that the work may begin
!all the money that can be raised must
be forthcoming. Many true reformers
throughout the United States intend
Ito contribute, but are waiting for
the Board of Trustees to let out the
contract. The money must be in
sight before this can be done.
1t is hardly necessary to say any
thing as to the Importance of erect
ling a handsome monument. To
build a monument in keeping with
the love the people had for Col.
Polk would require an unreasona-
BILE sum of money. Yet we cannot
and will not be satisfied with an or
|dinary monument. His work, his
personality will live in our hearts,
but our children ought to know how
we appreciated one so true and
brave.
Can we raise the money. | for
| one say we can. If every one of
President Polk's friends and ad-
mirers through the State and Unit
ed States would but contribute
cents each, a beautiful monument
could be erected at once. Let the
reform press push this matter, not
| in half hearted way, but with en-
|ergy, presistently. Every man, wo-
man and child can do something.
Each family can contribute the price
of bushel of grain or an equal
amount from some other source and
never miss it. If a great many dol
lars were required from each one in
| these hard times it could not bt
raised. Buu small amount can and
should be sent to Mr.. Hal W. Aver
Raleigh, or President Marion Butler
sGoldsboro. n. c., and sent right
away. Let us 90 to work.
Allianceman.

If he had done this sooner the dis
graceful scenes of the last few weeks
in that State would never have oc.
Cured. 1t was generally undere tooc
among the law defers and rebelliou>
citizens that the military companies
would not obey his orders, and hence
the fagrant defiance Of law and or

MOST WORTHY OBJECT,
(National Watchman.)

(NatlOnaI Watchman.)
We should call special attention
to President Buffers proclamation
to Alliancemen published in anothe
column. He exhorts them to cele
brate Col. Polk's birthday, Apri
2Sth; by meeting together and max
ing contribution to the memoria
fund. This is a most worthy object
aud though our people are poor the,
should do all in their power to homo,
the memory of one who gave him
self for their cause. Big-hearted
beloved Polk , Let the memorial b,
worthy of the man.

The First Gold Bar.

Last Friday bar of gold bullion
valued at $1,000 was shipped from
Silver Star to the Mint. This is the
result of the first cleanup of the new
mill We are not informed how
many tons of ore were worked, but
it is believed that not more than so
tons were put through, and most of
this was known to be of low grade.
1t was put in as starter for the
mill.
We have heard good deal about
the first gun of the campaign, but
this is the first gun of Silver Star
Mining District, and it is Of vastly
more Importance to our people than
forty campaigns. The mill is a sue
cess. The water supply is said to be
sufficient. Several valuable mines
are exposed to view, and if Silver
Star does not hum with life and ac-
tivity within three months, all signs
fail.

A Big De- al.

The Carson and Tahoe Lumber and
Fluming Company has bought a con-
trolling interest in the Hobart Il
Marlette Company and will conduct
the business of both companies here
after The deal is a big one, involv-
ing something like million dollars,
and will result in some changes in
the conduct of the wood and lumber
business in this section. The lumber
and wood tlume of thecompany which
has sold out, which comes down from
the mountains to Lakeview on the Y.
d 7. railroad, will be dismantled
and no more wood or lumber will be
fumed to that point, The wood and
lumber will be brought down the pur-
chasing company tlume, which comes
into Carson. The Water Company's
telephone between here and Lakeview
will be discontinued as aconsequence
of the deal, and Lakeview will lose its
fluming industry. The deal resulted
from the shrinkage in the wood and
lumber business, which would not
support two companies. Virginia

Committees on Finance and Con-
struction have been appointed and
are making progress. Nearly 5000

a house for the hose cart was begun
Yesterday.

on the roll At a regular meeting
Monday night the following officers
were elected: John Forbes, President;
A. Summerfield, Vice-President; S.
A. Knapp, Treasurer; J. H. White,
Secretary, and ]. H. Miller, Foreman.
Ben Rosenthal was appointed Assist
ant Foreman.
The building will be 12xl8 and
will cost about 800. The railroad
has offered to build the house, if the
citizens furnished the lumber, which
they will do. About 200 feet of hose,
buckets, axes, ladders and hooks will
be purchased and when they arrive
and our boys are drilled in their use
we shall be prepared for the dread
fire fiend.
