The Method Employed in Davidson
to Permit Negro Convicts to Vote.

Lexington, n. c., Oct. 22.-(Special)
AT the March term, 1883 of Davidson
Superior court, John Adams, colored,
was tried and convicted of larceny,
and sentenced TO work on the public
roads for the term of six months. He
served his time on the roads and con-
tinued to live in or about Lexington.
He filed a petition to be restored to
citizenship and the same was heard
at the fall term, 1896, of said court,

McCrary, Esq, Republican candidate
for the House, represented the petit

Allen Jones, Zeb Walser, candidate
for Attorney General were sworn as
witnesses. Craver said the character
of John Adams was good. Henderson
and Jones did not know. Walser said
he thought the character of petitioner
was good. Adams's attorney, the
aforesaid McCrary, feeling that the
evidence was not sufficient and fear
ing that his sable client would not
be restored to citizenship and allowed
to vote the Republican ticket, got
somewhat excited, jumped up and
rushed to the clerks desk and asked
to be sworn himself. Whereupon
Walser took charge of the case and
examined McCrary in behalf of his
(McCrary's) client. On being asked
if he knew the character of John
Adams, he said he had known him
all his life and his character was first
class. The presiding judge then re-
quested McCrary to draw the judg-
ment, and the negro was thus restored
to citizenship which he had lost by
reason of being too intimate with 9TH
er peoples property. Taken in all it
was one of the most disgusting scenes
ever witnessed in the court house.

Lenoir, n. c., Oct. -(Special)-
Some years since our citizens contri-
buted literally toward the construction
Of a lumber plant, operated and owned
by Philadelphia syndicate, w. S. Har-
vey president. They bought fifty to
seventy-fve thousand acres of noun
tain land, erected a magnificent mill,
built railroad from Lenoir to Collects
vile, distance of ten miles, and
many of our people thought it would
be a great thing for our community.
Hands were promised one dollar a day
for their work, and wealth, happiness
and glory was to flow in like water
down our rapid streams. The result has
been that the mill has scarcely been
operatedthree months of the year. They
were the first to reduce the wages of
the poor men. We had been paying
seyenty-five cents for a laiborer-they
reduced the price 10 sixty cents, and
worked them twice as hard as they
had ever worked. So much for the
plant and it's management.
Two weeks since they discharged
Mr. John Bernhardt, the local man
ager, one of our best business men, and
one who conscientiouSly and honestly
and faithfully discharged every duty
as intelligently as any man could have
done, getting up at a. IN. and reach
ing the plant, winter and summer, by
6 a. m. to see that the work was going
on according to directions. Mr.. Bern

THE EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT.
A Feature of the Fair That is At

A Feature of the Fair That is At
tracing Great Attention.
The feature of the Fair that has at
tracted most attention from thought
full men is the educational exhibit. For
it shows something of the best work
that is being done in North Carolina
schools, and points to higher things
in our educational interests. This is
the first time an effort has been made
to have schools and colleges repre-
sented as distinct feature at the
State Fair. Its success this year un-
der the management of President Nc
Iver and Superintendent Howell will
lead the authorities hereafter to fos-
ter this department, as President
Cameron and Secretary Nichols have
done.
The large hall on the second floor of
the main building, devoted exclusively
to school exhibits, is crowded with
these, and two of the best, st. Mary's
and Peace Institute, have Overtlowed
down stairs.
ST. MARY'S SCHOOL.
One of the most interesting and com
plet6 exhibits at the Fair is that of
St. Mary's school, Raleigh. The space
given to this exhibit, just opposite the
main entrance ON the first floor of
Floral Hall, has been prettily decor
ated with blue, the school color, and
the display of drawings, paintings,
science charts, chronological collec-
tions, etc, make this delightful spot
to everyone interested in thorough and
attractive school work. The art exhi-
bit is unusual and shows the good re-
suits OF a carefully graded course of
instruction. There are drawings from
casts; work in charcoal and in pencil;
charming pen and ink sketches, one
hour time sketches, and exquisite work
in water colors and in oil. Perhaps the
most unique features are the pen and
ink sketches and the original applied
designs for wallpaper, table-linen and
screens.
The work in science is very thorough;
books are shown containing work and
drawings done by the pupils in ply
siology, botany and in natural history;
collections of butterflies, moths, bees
and beetles are exhibited and also the
large colored charts illustrating parts
Of insects, etc, used in class. A part
of the scientific apparatus of the school
the telescope, air-pump, mannlkIn,
orrery, microscopes also shown;
from j to p. m. to-day the large COM
pound microscope, valued at $1,000,
and one of the finest instruments used
in any school, will be exhibited to those
interested in scientific Investigations,
by Miss Slater, the teacher in charge of
the science department. She will have
various slides showing the lowest forms
Of plant and animal life.

cLEvELAND's PROCLAMATION.

Denounced BY German Paper As a
Scheme to Give Him Glory.
Berlin, Dec Accommodating upon the
proclamation of the President of the
United states restoring tonnage dues
upon German vessels, the National Zei
rung says that the tonnage dues at Ham,
burg, Bremen and other German ports
viii surely be increased, but solely for
the purpose of improving the harbors for
the general benefit of shipping and not
for state purposes as in America. For
eigners having their own wharVes in Ger
many the paper adds, German ship
pers must build their own wharves in
America; Germany will now be deprived
Of the advantages she obtained in 1888,
the sacrifice being imposed upon Ger
man shipowners."
The F'reissigne Zeitung estimates that
the North German Lloyd Steamship
company win be subjected to an In
creased expenditure of $50, 900 marks. and
the Hamburg American line will suffer
almost to as great an extent
The Cologne Gazette regards Presi-
dent Cleveland'S proclamation as an ef-
fort on his part to retire from office in a
blaze of glory. The presidents asser-
ton that state tonnage dues are levied at
German ports, however, is erroneous, as
the dues imposed are solely for the use
of special port facilities. In conclusion,
the Gazette expresses hope that in the
enforcement of the proclamation, "even
in the case of Germans In America" the
American courts will see that the prin-
ciple of right and justice is upheld and
that meanwhile Germany may convince
America that such an infringement of
German rights cannot be accepted.
