went to take up the campaign work in that

platforms with Senator Foraker in Ohio,

peals to stand by the administration and
elect q republican legislature which would
return Mr.. Hanna to the Senate for the
full term.

Public Meeting Called in Northampton
County to Discuss 1t.
pntron and Glenner.

The 99-year lease of the North Caro-
lima Railroad is claiming the attention
OF the whole State ut present. 1t will
be remembered that in 1895, six years be-
fore the old lease of the road expired,
Governor Carr and the directors, acting
under the Governors Instructions, leased
the road to the Southern Railway for a
term OF 90 years. This lease was yigor-
ously opposed at the time by the Raleigh
News and Observer and other papers,
and was denounced by the Farmers Al
ltipnce aud other organizations. A bill
il now before the Legislature to annul
the lease, and the Judiciary committee
in hearing arguments from both sides.
Several OF the foremost lawyers in the
State. including two ex4Supreme Court
Judges, have made speeches ON the sub
ject before the committee. Capt w. III.
Day made one OF his characteristic Wig
orous speeches last Monday in opposition
10 the lease. There is a call in this issue
for the citizens Of this county to meet at
jackson next Monday and express their
sentiments ON the subject, and instruct
our Senator and Representative. Let
all who either favor or oppose the lease
attend that we may have full and fair
discussion OF the subject.

Two more fool bills, instigated by MFR.
II. w Flake, have been introduced in
the Senate by Mr.. Odom. The first of
these bills provides for the election OF a
tax collector for Arson county, and the
other one is entitled bill Ito give the
county commissioners OF Arson county
the exclusive power to collect liquor tax
in said county"
OF course if the first bill should be-
come a law the collection of the taxes
would be taken away from the sheriff
of the county and placed in the hands of
the newly created officer. The office OF
sheriff in this county, at the best, is not
worth exceeding $500 to the incumbent,
and only by the closest management can
that much be reaii2ed from ii. This be-
ing true, it is patent 70 any man, who is
not either knaye or Il fool, thar III the
collection OF the taxes is given to another
that it will be impossible to get COM
petent man to fill the office of sheriff.
