BALTIMORE. December 15.-Mr. Louis
Michel, who was chairman OF the mass
meeting recently held in this city for the
purpose of giving expression to belief
upon the part Of those who attended ir
in the innocence Of Captain Dreyfus. the
famous life-prisoner OF Devils Island, has
received letter from United States Sen
ator Morgan. Of Alabama. in which that
gentleman also expresses his belief IN the
Injustice OF Captain Dreyfus's imprisen-
ment.
He adds: at Is honorable and praise
worthy to express our sympathy Tor the
victims OF injustice, but | doubt II t -
the better course 10 do this In con-
certcd way. by public demonstrations.
Personal letters that will inform the
French Government OF our Views will. i
think. have a better effect than petitions
signed by thousands who are not sup~
posed to know the actual situation"

II is always pleasant to hear

following from the Piedmont
Headlight, Of Spartanburg, S. O.,
will be Of interest to our people.
They are words Of praise that will
not soon be forgotten:
North Carolina may have and
doubtless has her full quota Of

ambulations over this mundane
sphere we have never as yet me,
with Tar Heller but we found
him a big-hearted, whole-souled,
clever fellow. They are shrewe
business men, keen traders, bu
honorable and just. They are true
friends and open enemies. VIZ
have always beer partial to Nortf
Carolinians, but perhaps it wa.
because we happened to fall il
with the cream of the state. W.
have met and transacted bushes!
with thousands of them, and W,
never knew one to do a mean, dis
honorable or underhand act
Among the truest and best friends
we ever knew were natives of Eas
Tennessee and the Old Nortl

what ahead of Senator Pritchard
in this matter, he having named
his boy William Mckinley one
year before Senator Pritchari did.
This ought to give the Catawba
man the postofice, or "somcshing

Citizen said:
John c. Poole, the suffering
and splitting Mcdowell county re-
publican, is getting, tired of seeing
so much in the papers about Sena-
tor Pritchard's boy, William Nc
Kinley, r., and announces through
the Mcdowell Democrat that he
named his boy William Mckinley
eighteen months before Senator
Pritchard named his. Poole is
entitled to the claim for considera,
ton at the hands of the incoming
administration that his priority in
child naming implies, and should
have it. Besides, Pritchard has
gotten what he wants and Poole
hasn't.

they were in immediate danger oil

Of the Cuban crop reduced the out

compared with the previous year.
In 1866 the yield Of sugar was
