TIME TO CALL A HALT.

Submit To Government by Injunction.
durham IIerald.)

These United States judges, who, il
seems, are always on the side of trusts
and combines will keep on meddling
with States rights until there will be
trouble in camp again. Never, since this
government was formed, have the peo-
pie submitted to it long at a time and
they never will so long as q drop Of
Anglo-SaXon blood runs through their
veins.
1t is contrary to the principle as laid
down by our old forcfathcrs who threw
off the British yoke for that very same
thing. If United States judges are GO
ing to dictate what the Governor Of this
State shall and shall not do, then why
not let the United States Senate which
is dominated over by trusts, name the
Governor and give him Il book of in
structionS 10 go by

TRUCK FARMERS REJOICE.
Their Crops Are in Excellent Condition
They Hope to Escape an Early
Spring Frost

Charleston News and Courier)
The truck farmers of this vicinity
have been fairly holding their breath
for some days, but now they are easy
again and smiles are prevalent all over
their faces. The cool nights Of the week
just gone have had them guessing just
when a real hard frost would come. The
thermometer on Saturday night went
so near the frost line in the city that the
commission men were expecting to hear
sad tales on Monday morning, but such
was not the case. There was a slight
frost in some sections hereabouts, on
the islands particularly, but it did very
little damage. The cucumber vines AM.
beans were touched here and there, as if
by fire, and occasionally q few potatoes,
showed up scorched and black, but the
great fields Of peas, cabbage and straw
berries were not hurt. The potato crop
was only slightly touched in some sec
tons.

Now here is another thing that don't

you ought to pay him out of your own

funds. for these funds come out
of the tax payers. See this: DIR. d. Reed

as free silver man. He was after
money. so when he got to Raleigh he
voted for a gold bug for United States
Senate. In consideration of this he was
to have an office There were not enough
offices to go round. SO they proceeded
to make new office for this Hopper and
the poor people of Davidson county must
help pay him $1,000 per year for four
years, making four thousand, eight hum
dred dollars, and all for nothing. This
fellow would be worth more to the State
as a hand on the public roads for the
next four years than he will be in this

Boston, November ia letter was
received here to-day from Captain
Charleston, Of the four masted schooner
Clara e. Randall, of Portland, Me-, now
in port at Matanzas, Cuba, which tells
of the gret distress and suffering in
Cuba.
The schooner left Philadelphia with a
cargo of coal about a month ago, and
the letter was written by Captain
Charleston soon after the vessel ar
rived there two weeks ago.
Captain Charleston says that Matan-
zas is filled with fever-stricken and dy-
ing soldiers and that hundreds of pacif-
icos are dying every week. 1t is no I'M
common sight on the streets to see men
lying in the gutter in their last agonies
and to see the death carts slowly creep
ing about gathering up their load of
bodies. The people seem to be helpless
in their misery and not only is yellow
fever playing havoc with them, but they
are dying of starvation by scores. Cap
tain Charleston says that he has not
been ashore very much since his arrival
for fear of catching the fever and he
intends to get his vessel unloaded and
away as soon as possible.
Matanzas, which was once one of the
busiest ports of the island, is now al
most deserted, he says, and everywhere
there is death and pestilence.
