heretofore reported, has about subsidized. The trouble originated from the

BEFORE BABY IS BORN"
A Valuable Little Book of Interest
to AL Women Sent Free.

Every woman looks forward with feel
ings Of joy indescribable to the
n great event in her life, COM
pared with which all others pale into in

ger of the ordeal, SO that it is impossi-
BILE to avoid the feeling of foreboding
which creeps over her. The danger
and suffering attendant upon being a
mother can be entirely prevented, so
that the coming of the little stranger
need not be looked forward to with fear.
Every woman who reads this, can obtain
free a valuable little book entitled "Be-
fore Baby is Born" by sending her adj
dress to the Bradfield Regulator Co.,
Atlanta, Ga. This book contains price
less information for all women, and no

INCITED NEGROES TO ASSAULT.
The Infamous Speech Of a Republican in

IFTom b RaIelgh News n ObserverD
Laurinburg, N. c., October 21-Thee republican county candidates, in
company with a white republican by the name of Henry Covington, ar now
making the county canvass.
Yesterday Covington spoke at Old Hundred and made a vilainous speech.
He told tn negroes they were THE BEST RACE OF PEOPLE ON EARTH
He also told them that when ou white girls return from colleges and
schools the negroes are usually employed to look after them and drive
them about yer the country, and added:
"IF 1 WERE IN YOUR PLACE I WOULD PUT MY ARMS AROUND
THEM"
Today they were billed to speak at Masons Cross roads, nea here The
best citizens of Gibson, Laurnburg Laurel Hill and the community gener-
ally, resolved that they WOULD NOT HAVE A REPETITION of the occur
rences. So they werep promptly met by three hundred of our most deter
Richmond.
AS for Covington, HE WAS MADE TO STAND UP IN A BUGGY AND
RETRACT, saying he vas sorry for what he said, and promising eve to
do SC again. HE WAS THEN PUT IN HIS BUGGY AND TOLD TO HIT
THE GRIT, which he did.
If men who call themselves white are determined to q round infaming
the negroes, and abusing good white mn and women. the people re de-
termined that they shall seek other quarters to carry o their nefanous bus
mess.

received a grave dispatch from Porto
Rico, announcing that the American
general there is acting toward Spain

China. He ordered a Spanish steamer
to embark the remainder of the Span

the protests of her captain, who had
orders to go to Havana to embark sick

bonded debt Of $4,000 that will soon
fall due and have to be refunded. IL
is drawing aud per cent. interest.
The floating debt will be about from
Slo,OOO TO $4,000, and draws pei
cent, on demand, or 8 per cert. after
due. The total interest charged per
annum is about $1,000. We should
elect directors who will refund the
bonds when due at a lower rate of in.

FROM 81 10 4 per cent, and money can
be had for current expenses at per
