Pat Hardin has resigned the su.
perintendency of the street car
company. We are sorry to lose
Pat, for it took him a whole year
to find out that a newspaper repor-
ter was as good as a policeman, and
entitled to free ride, We trust
the new superintendent has had ex-
perience and educated up to the
fact that a dead head pass on a
street car will keep the cars on the
track when they are off; carry the
cars over the road on schedule time;
besides keeping the public posted as
to who the superintendent is, any
how, and other things the general
public should keep posted on. We
ask the new superintendent to cut
this out and paste it IN his hat,

Those states which have thrown
OF the mantel of Democracy and
clothed themselves with clothes of
Republicanism will some day howl
for a change back to the good old
days, when a white man was consid-
cred as good as a negro, if he be-
haved himself. The tables have
been turned in three states only,
but they will need only few months
of the spoilsman's work in Office to
make them turn to the white mans
party again and vote the ticket
straight from ga to 2, yellow dog

Obituary..

"Haywood Lee died Sa. N. Come
down."
The above words flashed over the
wire from Benton, on the Goth Nov,
and my heart was saddened by the
intelligence, for Haywood Lee was
my little namesake,-the son of Mrs.
NJ. 81. Hanks. He was 9 years, 5
months and 10 days old.
A little more than two years ago,
the family circle was broken by the
death of Haywood Lees father, MIR.
F. NJ. Hanks, and this time by the
little fellow who was the fathers
pet, and the whole family's pride
and joy.
The little fellow had been very
low of swamp fever, but was thought
to be recovering, but he grew worse
very suddenly, and before medical
aid could be summoned, his pure
spirit took it's flight to that land
that is fairer than day.
He was buried at the Rocky Mount
cemetary Nov. %, 1895.
