Why is 1t?

Why is it that the honest, tax
paying citizens of North Caro-
lima cannot have a law to protect
them like the law is ia Georgia.
In that State a man has to show
his tax receipt and that he is a
lawful citizen and properly reg
istered before he can have the
privilege to vote. The men that
loaf around and rob the Govern
ment out of its honest dues, by
not paying their taxes, are the
men that find the most fault of
an honest candidate, and these
men, too, are foremost at the
polls on election day and the
first ones to make a. fuss about
public schools, etc.
We trust that the time is close
at hand when the same law will
be in force here in our own State
as ii is in Georgia.
/ feel that the good, honest
papers of our country should
say a great deal on this subject
aid get the minds and hearts OF
our law makers aroused on the
subject. j. w. r.

The Quaker Bridge.

DEAR ARGUS We hear it
rumored that the County Com
missioners intend to rebuild the
Quaker bridge across Neuse
river, and as a taxpayer and one
who believes in justice being
done, we would like TO ask our
county Fathers if they Can recon
Gle their consciences to spend
the peoples money for a bridge
entirely worthless to the travel
ing public and refuse to accept a
bridge across the same river,
where a large portion of the peo-
pie in the western part Of the
county and adjoining counties
exclusively travel?
We have reference to the
Quaker and Toler bridges. Both
were built by county and individ-
ual contributions, the county Civ.
ing $4O0 to each bridge.
We venture the assertion that
fifty vehicles pass over the Toler
bridge to one across the Quaker
bridge. We heard Mr.. David
Porter say he worked on the
Quaker bridge three days and a
half and only one vehicle crossed
it while he was there.
/ would like to ask, Mr. Editor,
If it is justice to the taxpayers OF
the county to keep up such q
charge?
Let theBoard give the bridge
as it now stands, to the few in
dividuals who clamor for it's re-
building. and let them do as
Messrs. J. A. and A. 81. Tolel
have done-keep it up for the
few travellers who pass that way.
Very truly,
A TAXPAYER.

Bryan Thinks That There is No
Doubt of His Election-His
Speeches From the Car Plat
form
Davenport, August s.

hRO4S AuS uoo
Davenport is looked upon by
Iowa silver men as a stronghold of
opposition to the free silver move
ment, but the crowd that filled the
platform and adjacent streets when
the train arrived must have mum
bered 1000. 1t was by far the
biggest and noisiest demonstration
witnessed since the Bryan party
left home, with the exception Of
the reception at Des Moines. Mr..
and Mrs. Bryan leaned over the
railing of the rea platform and
shook hands with all who could
fight their way into reaching dis
lance, while the crowd was a
heaving, struggling mass of hui
mainly from the very centre of
interest to the outer limits of the
large circle. In response to num-
erous urgent invitations Mr.. Bry-
an spoke as follows:
"Ladies and gentlemen: They
say that this is a town that believes
in gold. If SO [ want you to tell
the people that we will do even
better, for we believe in both gold
and silver. l promised myself
that [ would not do any talking
on the road, but tie presence of
so many enthusiastic people is a
temptation which cannot with
stand. [ do not know whether |
can come back or not, because
this is a large country, and it is
going to take a good while to get
over it, bat if the shouting that |
hear is an Indication of your feel
ings | do not think it will be neces-
sary for me to come back here. |
have promised that would not
make any appointments until cleo
ton, but | Will break that promise
and appoint each one of you amis-
sionary to go and work until cleo
ton day.
AS the train drew away from
the midst of the crowd Mrs.
Bryan scattered a number of roses
and women and children wed with
the men in the struggle that ensued
for the prizes. When Rock Island
was reached, five or ten minutes
later, the scenes at Davenport were
re-enacted and emphasized. There
were fully 5000 people at the de-
pot. Mr.. Bryan was introduced
by Mr.. Hussing and spoke again,
recognizing his entry into his ma
tive State in the following words:
"Ladies and Conference.-The
gives me a great deal of pleasure
to find so many people here await
ing our return to the State in
which we were both born. Illinois
is the birthplace of my wife as
well as myself, and until about
nine years ago we called Illinois
our home. And l would feel very
badly indeed if in Illinois there
should be less cordial support
than in the State where we now
live. 1t gratifes US, therefore, to
meet the citizens of our former
State and see them manifest the
interest in the result of this cleo
ton.
81 am not here to talk politics,
! because | do not desire to take any
part in any political discussions
until after the notification, but l
want to assure you that this cam
paign is not going by default by
any means. The principles rep
resented in the Chicago platform
will be presented from the stump
in every State of the Union, from
Maine to California.

Wilkesbarre, Aug. 9.-George
w. Windisch, the wife murderer,
died in the hospital attached to
the county Jail shortly after 5
o'clock this morning. A few
minutes before he died he said:
We'll. the end is near now, and
I am glad, forI shall not disgrace
my children by dying on the
gallows." The condemned man
had been in poor health ever
since he was admitted to the Jail.
Confinement aggravated his
trouble, and about a month ago
he was attacked with typhoid
fever. He received the best
medical care, but continued to
sink. He daily prayed that he
might die a natural death. He
was to haye been hanged in
June, but the Governor granted
him a respite until September.

THE GOLDEN LEAF"
OPENING OF GOLDSBORO'S
WAREHOUSE TODAY.
Many Thousand Pounds Sold at
Prices That Give Satisfaction
The Opening a Grand Success
in Every Particular.

IN Every PARTICULAR
Daily Argus. Tuesday Aug. II,
All along the many highways
leading into the city this morn
ing were to be seen country carts
heavily laden with the golden
leaf" vending their way to be
present at the opening of
Goldsboro's tobacco warehouses
to-day. The warehouses had
stood open all during the previ-
GUS night and there had been
arrivals from long distances at
every hour during the time, that
never ceased until a late hour to-
day.
The news had been sent out
through the rural districts that
the facilities for handling tobacco
in Goldsooro had been greatly
increased and that there had re-
Gently arrived a large number of
buyers on this market, and so
the people came here expecting
to find ample accommodation and
much competition in the buying
of their comparatively new crop.
Noae who came with this expec
tation were disappointed in
the least, as the broad floors of
our two mammoth tobacco ware>
houses we're sufficient to display
even a larger quantity, but the
managers and buyers had all the
business they wished and were
only too glad when the auc-
tioneer had called out the last
figures.
There were those present to-
day that had never marketed a
leaf before and the experience
was something novel for them.
but the receipts for their weed"
caused mary a broad smile to
light up their braLy countens
anceS.
TIE managers of both our
warehouses are men of long ex>
perience in the business and due
courtesy is extended to each pa
tron and bis interest carefully
guarded. With such men in
charge the inexperienced seller
is assured that his product will
receive the proper attention and
sell for the highest market price.
1t is very gratifying TO be able
10 state that the opening day was
a success in every particular.
Our warehouse managers who
had anticipated a big days bust
ness had their ambitious dreams
fully realized, and the many
hundreds of farmers who were
present with their product went
away highly pleased with the re-
suit of their sales.
At this writing the aggregate
number of pounds sold to day
cannot be ascertained, but the
inexperienced eye would place
the figures at a great many thou
sands. There will be sales at
both warehouses every day
all through the coming sea-
son and the prices paid
to day when they become known
will no doubt induce the planters
for many miles distant to market
their tweed" in the tobacco ware
houses of Goldsboro, where they
are always assured of a warm
welcome. ample accommodation
and the highest market price.
