DEBATE BETWEEN LINNEY AND
DOUGHTON.

DOOdh1ON.
A prominent citizen who heard the
Joint debate between Linney and
Doughton at Hiddenite, Alexander
county, writes private letter here to
a friend, giving an account of the
speaking which we are permitted to
give to our readers. 1t was not writ
ten for publication, and will be recog-
nized as a, frank statement of a pri-
vate citizen TO friend. He writes:
SAT first l thought it was Greek

gotten half through, although Linney
had made first class speech from the
Republican standpoint, / saw tha.H
Linney was badly out classed. Both
were clean strong speeches. 1t is fool
ish to underrate Linney's ability; be-
fore he finished his first hour it looked
as if would be an easy winner, but
when our Lieutenant Govern
or began to show up strong
ly and clearly that the tar
iff was not the issue, that in ridicule
and abuse of the Democratic party
Linney was lodging the important is
sue, when he showed, clearly in his
dignifed WAY that the deficit was
caused by a Republican judge chang
ing his mind, after the Supreme court
had ever since it's establishment been
of the opinion that an income tax was

gan cheering, their man began to wake
up to the fact that they were really
at heart with the doctrine of Dough-
ton. Both speeches were clean, both
strong but Doughton stronger, his

ballot and a fair count" was enioyed
by almost everybody of the crowd
which filled every space, even the win
dows, except Linney himself. Dough-
ton showed that Linney had paired
on the Payne Bill; he read extracts
showing how, although, he could not
now go 16 to i, he had taken 1872 to /
when he voted to accept evidence of
one negro against 1872 whites in the
Alabama contested election cases. He
read parts of a speech of a member
of Congress, who gave Kinney terri
BILE tongue Iashing for villifying the
South. 1T is not honest to underrate
our opponents, and Linney is am able
man, but the man who forced a rec
ognition of his honesty, fairness, and
ability from the Douglass Memorial
Association, when with only six of
his own party he stood there repre-
senting us is more than a match for
him, or in fact for any other man in
the entire State. / have been in three

AN HONEST POPLIST SPEAKS OUI.
Mr.. i. e. Newsome, the most popu-
lar and earnest Populist leader in
Wilson county, has written letter
scoring the action Of the Populists in
Wilson county because they fused with
the Republicans and put gold-bug Nc
Kinley Republicans on the ticket; 2
They wanted the legislative nominees
to pledge themselves to vote to turn
the government of the town of Wilson
over to the negroes; 8. They adj
mitted Republicans to the primaries,
and the Republicans named the ticket
Concluding Mr.. Newsome says:

ence ever since / was a voter. l re-

his followers in 1892 and took part in
the first Populist convention ever held
in this county, because regarded it as
a party that was determined to stand
for principles instead OF spoils.

asks me to turn my back on all my

let me appeal to the patriotism of
every financial reformer of every
party. and ask you to stop and think
for yourselves and see to it that you
are not made a cats paw for any office
seeker. Vote for no man who is not
willing to pledge himself to the sup
port of the financial reforms the peo-
know we have been deceived and put
men in office who would turn their
backs upon the people, and therefore
let us be more careful.
Now, as to those Republicans who
have changed their convictions since
two years ago and since Hanna held
a little Doodle in sight. They have
gone back on MS for the sake Of Doodle

nor honest Republican farmers to sup
port them, because they favor Iegisla-
ton detrimental to our prosperity.
What will benefit me will benefit any
Republican who digs his living out of

Beaufort, n. c., Oct. 17.-(Special)
Col. Wilkes Lucas, candidate for
Congress, spoke here to-day to large
and enthusiastic audience. Skinner
gave him the dodge at this place, and
was not here to meet him. This is
two or three times on the canvass he
has done the same thing. Col. Lucas
discussed the financial question in a
logical and interesting manner: he
said that Skinner was high tariff
advocate, and that the only measure
passed by him for his district was to
put tariff on bagging and ties. He
rubbed it into Skinner heavy, and his

libraries are being permanently estab-

The virus of eXtrayagant uttcrance

it believes it, why in thunder don't it
practice the doctrine a little? What
with burning negroes at the stake in
Texas, for suspected crime; what with
stuflinC ballot boxes in Mississippi;
what with deliberately destroying the
constitutional rights of the negro in
South Carolina; what with massacreing

scruple or fear of punishment, it does
not seem as if the divine doctrine of
hold here. Thirty Five Thousand pco

Tacoma only four weeks ago pitched

pagsns, whose only crime was willing
ness to work. As the toe of this Chris
