Continuing his defense OF the refund
ing loan ordinance, Mr.. Forgey has the
following:
TO the Editor OF the IntellIgeucer.
sIR:-It is hardly fair or equal
contest when a novice is engaged over
his own name with an opponent under
fictitious cover But I will accept the
situation and consider myself equal to
the combat, II anti Loan" does no:
display any greater knowledge OF ac-
counts and finance than shown in his
letter to the Register this morning He
declares my letter In Mondays Intelli-
| gencer lacking In clearness, lacking in
accuracy. lacking In frankness." A pa
per OF the description given II by Anti
Loan would do It's espoused cause more
harm than good; hence Anti Loan had
better let II alone rather than occupy
two columns OF the Register in point
ing out the truth that he knows little
about the,new ordinance and less about
the city accounts, or he preyaricates
for n purpose unknown 10 me,
He says mfr. Forgey gets total debt
for January /. 1895, Of Ss4s,5OO, but TO
do this includes one item OF $4,000
twice" AS / discovered this inadver-
tency myself yesterday morning at my
own breakfast table and took due dill
gence in having It corrected this morn
Ing. ! hope Anti Loan viii try TO for
get that as my figures stlll have good
showing.
SAYS Anti Loan: HE also Includes the
COMPROMISE loan OF Ss2, 900. which II is
not proposed to refund" Here is where
Anti Loan displays ignorance and II he
had wanted to be fair he would have
taken a COPY OF the refundlng ordi-
nance and compared It with the state
ment give OF loans TO be refunded,
!525, 900. and shown in the first column
Of my letter in Mondays lntelilgencer.
BY II he would have learned that the
compromise bonds OF 1860 and the first
series Of Main street bridge bonds are
provided for in the new ordinance.
To the total amount to be refunded. $4,000

Mr.. 0. c. POWELL RETURNS.

We call attention to the communication
in another column of Mr.. d. G. Powell,
of Hertford county. Mr.. Powell, like
many another good man went into the
Populist party as a revolt against Cleve-
landism, which is now happily obliterat-
ed. Then Mr.. Powell did not and
could not foresee the black slough of
despond into which Butler would lead
decent white men for the qualification
merely of his own ambition. He stuck
faithfully to the Populists even though
in SO doing he had to lose numberless
friends, as he states in letter accom-
panying the communication. 81 am con-
yinced," he adds in this letter, "that
am wrong and / want to get out of
such party"
Mr.. Powell but speaks what has been
hitherto unspoken by many good Popu-
lists who love their State more than the
political fortunes of Senator Butler. To
all such who desire the return of de-
cent government by the responsible and
respectable people in the State, the
Democratic party, standing on the Chi
cago platform, and for white supremacy,
holds out welcoming hand.

The first Sum on the Union Pacific
Government to bid for Kansas Pacific.
New York, Nov. 23.-The first payment
of $13,645, ,250 to the government on ac-
count of the purchase of the Union
Pacific Railroad, was cleared to-day, as
well as cashiers checks on the National
City Bank for nearly $4,000,0O0, which
the latter sent yesterday to the other

ated as special temporary repositories
for part of the proceeds of the sale.
Interest was taken to-day in re-
port from Washington to the effect that
the government intended to bid for the
Kansas Pacific Railroad, and that rep
resentative Of the government would
qualify for that purpose by depositing
with the court the necessary amount,
$500, 900 of cash and bonds 100000 OF
each), five days before the sales.

A FUSION 0BIECT-lESS0N.

A shudder almost comes over the
good people OF North Carolina when
they recall how narrowly they escaped
last winter the revolution that was at-
tempted by the nigger-traders legisla-
ture in the plan to recharter the towns
of the State. An remember that Char
lotte was startled by the bastard pro-
grammc as were other cities also, Will
mington included, and in some cases
the reckless gang were balked in their
desperation. But some of the towns had
to pass under the rod.
Greenville was one of them. Behold
the result. This town writes one of its
distinguished citizens has actually been
taken control Of by the negroes. The
act, as will be recalled, divided the town
up into four wards. The lines are so
run that the negroes have a large ma
jority in two wards and the whites in
two wards. To the two negro wards
the act gives two aldermen each and
to the two white wards one each. AT
the last election the negroes
elected four negroes and the
white, two white men, so that
the town has board composed of four
negroes and two white men. The Mayor
and Chief of Police are white men, elect
ed by this negro board. The Assistant
Policeman is coal black negro. The
clerk of the Board is a negro.
The taxable property of the town is
nearly three quarters Of million, and
the four negro aldermen, the Mayor and
Chief Of Police give in less than 5000
worth of property for taxation.
But for the row in the Fusion Camp
last winter many a town in Eastern
North Carolina would be in the same
condition as Greenville. BY their
fruits shall We know them. There is no
theorizing in the above statement: it is
a recital of the facts which every one
may confirm for himself.

THE OREGON ON FIRE.
The Big Battle-Ship Works up Case
of Spontaneous Combustion.

San Francisco, Nov. 23.-The Call
says:
The coal bunkers in the United States
battleship Oregon caught fire Sunday
evening from spontaneous combustion,
and for eight hours the crew worked
with n vengeance to smother what look
ed like costly blaze. There were over
100 tons Of coal III the vessel, and prompt
action alone saved the ship.
The fire is supposed to have started
from water leaking into the coal bunk
ers. This would eventually cause a ter
rife heat from accumulating gases.
Luckily the fire was discovered before
ii had gained much headway. An alarm
was immcdia ely given and orders Were
issued to remove the coal from the vessel
to the wharf. Steam pipes were attach
cd aud connected with the lower part Of
the vessel in an attempt to smother what
fire might have been in other parts OF
the ship.
The men went to work with a will, but
the task was larger than had at first
been supposed. The work was done
with difficulty. as the smoke hindered
the men in their attempts to quickly put
out the blaze.
During the whole night, after the fire
had been discovered, the entire crew
labored in removing the smoking and
blazing coal and it was not until day
break that The men were allowed to leave
their work
The war-ship will be dry-docked with
in few days and righted, after which
she will be coaled and her ammunition
placed on board when she will be ready
for action.

SUMMER TOILETS.

with turbanlike twists of tulle round
the crowns and large bows of ribbon.
Capotes take rather the beret shape,
made Of soft, pliable straw, with flow.
ers, feather tips, rosettes Of tulle, etc.
White wells are esteemed most dressy.
Those Of tulle with black spots are the
most becoming. 1t is rumored that the
bonnet is fast superseding the hat
among married women, whether young
or middle aged. Toques and bonnets in
consequence ere assuming increased i'm
portance Picturesque hats with low
crowns are loaded with ostrich feathers,
which are again to the fore Indeed
their popularity is noticeable feature
of the season.
Ostrich boas are included in every
wardrobe. Very becoming are the neck
ruffs made of colored and white chiffon,
the edges fringed with ostrich feather
hues.
AS to the capes, they are very short
wide pelernes, in fact-of light silk
richly embroidered or spangled lace,
also plated tulle. Imported ones, direct
from Paris, made in black chiffon, com.
bined with silk or gauze, the pattern
outlined with cord, are very effective
Some Of them take the form of a bolero
with wing sleeves Others are merely
the short fashionable cape. 1t is pre-.
dicted that this summer will see the
last Of capes and that in the autumn
the shape Of visite-mantlet will reap.
