A Contractor Sued.

The United States has lent its name to the
prosecution OF an action in the United States
District Court in case of the Burnham Stane-
ford Company against F. L. Hansen, Otto H.
Greenwald and Z. A Warren. Hansen had a
contract with the military authorities TO erect a
com pany barracks at the Presidio. The other
two were his bondsmen Hansen failed to
complete the contract and at the time CT mis-
failure to do so he owed the Burnham Stane-
ford Company $2348 15-minus $500 paid
subsequently-for milwork The action is
against the bondsmen well as the con-
tractor, and under the law the United States
can lend its name to such an action.

COL. j. S. CARR FOR GOVERNOR.
a Nephew of Col. Dockery Says Peo-
pile in Ali Sections Want Him.


To the Editor: As a North Caro-
linian and one who has been working
over the State of North Carolina, and
feeling deeply interested in our State
politics, | write to urge the name of
Col. j. S. Carr, of Durham, for our
next Governor. Col. Carr has more
friends than any man in the State;
his generosity has been felt in almost
every county. He is kind and polite
to the poor as we'll as the rich, to the
black as well o. the white man. Your
correspondent having beeen most all
over the State, talking direct with the
people, has had fine opportunity to
judge who the strongest man will be,
and | til X | voice the sentiment and
views OF most all the Democrats, the
majority at least, when L say that man
is without doubt Col. J. S. Carr. The
Republicans made big mistake when
they failed to nominate Col. o. II.
Doellery. They now see it. The
Democrats will be guilty of making
a still greater mistake if they fail to
nominate Col, J, S. Carr. VIII they
make the mistake? I hope not. Let
all unite on Col. Carr and the Demo-
cratic party will continue to be in
power in North Carolina.

NO FUSION IN VANCE COUNTY.
Gill and Amis Fail to Agree With the
Republicans.

Henderson, n. c., June 1.-(Spe-
cial.) THE tail end of the Populist
party of Vance county, principally
composed of the Gill and Amis fac
ton, assembled in the court house on
Saturday at / o'clock to arrange with
the Republicans at this place for the
fusion ticket. The Republican COM
mittee, after due deliberation, made
the following proposition to the com
mittee of the Populists: That they
would fuse by giving to the Populist
party the clerk of court, sheriff, treas
urer, one commissioner, coroner,
county surveyor and all the constables
if necessary, leaving for the Republi-
can party only the members of the leg
islature, two commissioners and the
register of deeds. The Populists re-
fused this proposition, saying they de-
manded one member of the legislature
and two commissioners, the clerk,
sheriff and treasurer-and everything
else if they could get it. The Repub-
licans positively refused to go further
in their proposition, so fusion is vir-
tually at an end.

comfort affects his mind. Even when he
knows just what Is the matter, he neglects
the simplest precautions and the simple
treatment that would cure him. Most of
dyspepsia starts with constipation, and con-

cause of nine tenths of all human sick

bilious headache, dizziness, sour stomach,
