HON. F. M. SIMMONS.

Few m Ell are endowed by the
eift of nature with the blended
attributes which form the char
acter of a leader. Men are con-
stituted for different avocatlons
of life. Much depends upon
success or failure, by adherlng
to or not, the nature inclination
of natures gift. The great mos
tive power-Executlve ability
vim and energy, surmounts OBJ
stacles, though mountain high
and sweeps from its path :
way as though some finsey
material, and the onward march
progresses, with an intrepid
tread, to the consumation of the
object in view. When all the
characteristics are blended IN
one person, in formation OF the
character of a leader, we have
before us the picture Of noble
and grand being. ills Napo-
1eonic course wins admiration
and his magnetism attracts ev>
cry eye. Every sphere of life
cali, for a leader. The Divine
Being, from the earliest dawn
of creation, down to the present
time. has raised up men for
people to lean upon their genius
and judgement, to carve out
their destiny and deilverance
from besetting evils. The Dem
ocrat party chose Hon. F. M.
Simmons to lead the mighty
hosts of white supremacy, IN
the recent campaign, to re es~
tablish the Anglo Saxon domle
nation. His executive ability,
his aggressiveness, gave birth
at once to CONSERVATION and
dismay in the ranks OF the pol1t~
ical foe. His clarion notes soun>
ded DER the mountains of the
west, DER the hilltops Of central
N. c. and then swept over the
majestic waters of the east, to
where the whitecapped breakers
of the broad Atlantic dashed am
grily the sandy shores Of Curr1>
tuck; and from there the rever>
baton went back-the glad
some sound-the Anglo>Saxon
race are united-to victory or
death. This great political he
70, the central figure of a united
democracy, armed with Anglo
Saxon manhood, and the scepter
of power, welded i'll the hands
of white womanhOod, nerved
him to action, and with undaun>
ted courage, he assailed the po>
litical foes that confronted him ,
with the solid phalanx of white
supremacy, he routed them and
in utter confusion they fled to
their haunts, there to replne IN
defeat. To the invincible lead
sr-Hon. F. M. Simmons,
your countrymen owe you a
debt of gratitude and from the
hearts of white Womanhood as
eends the prayer, that your no
BILE life may be heightened
through many years to enjoy
with them the fruits Of your pa
triotic and manly labors.

We congratulate our county
chairman, Mr.. 7. 3. Wilson, for
his skillfu1 management and
untiring efforts in rallying the
white mans party, i'll the late
campaign. It's organization
was perfect, SO much SO that he
could almost give figures of the
result, anterior to the battle Of
ballots. He is particularly
complimented tor the manner
in which he called the conven~
ton. It's conception fitted eX-
actly the political conditions of
the day, which was so much at
variance with the Fusion meth
Cd. It's contra distinction aid
ed materially to the grand sue
cess of the party and it won the
admiration Of every one. He
was not hampered with faction
al strife or with the shadow of
personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT which
were one of the main levers OF
success. Along the entire line OF
1896 white voters, in the coun>
ty we are joined i'll heaping up
on his judicious head a shower
of EcomiuIns.

SHARkEY THE WINNER.
He Gets the Decision in the Ninth
Round of Rgis Battle with Corbett.

New York, Nov. 23.-The Sharkey-
Corbett fight, which was witnessed by
the largest and most representative
gathering of sporting men that ever
congregated to see a ring contest,
ended in a disgraceful fiasco last night
at the Lenox Athletic club. Corbett
had all the worst of the encounter
when one of his seconds, Con McNey,
jumped into the ring, appealing to the
referee, thus violating the rules, and
the referee, 'Honest" John Kelley,
had no alternative but to disqualify
Corbett and award the bout to Shark ey.
McNey interference was absolutely
inexcusable and the referee, believing
that there was JOB" in McVey's ac-
tion, took it upon himself to declare
all bets off.
In the second round there were wild
yells from the admirers of the Irish
man when he fiOored Corbett with a
right swing on the head, preceded with
powerful blow on the body. Shar-
keys rushes were successful invariably
and Jim's quicllness and leg work were
tested to their utmost in trying to
evade the aggressive sailor. That
Sharkey has improved wonderfully
goes without saying, and on the other
nand that Corbett is not the Corbett of
New Orleans is beyond question. At
no time had the Californian the upper
hand of his younger and more sturdy
rival. Sharlley is a fighter and a clever
one at that, and his work last night
stamps him beyond all doubt as being
second on lv to E'itZSimmOuS
From the second to the eighth round
Sharliey held a decided advantage. In
the ninth round, which vas so pro-
ductive of disappointme2ts and un-
looked for incidents, Corbett seemed
to be stronger than at any time during
the fight, but it was evident that he
was slowly but surely fading under
Sharkey's onslaughts. 1t was two to
one on Sharl<ey after the second round
and had not McVey acted as he did
there is very little doubt that Sharkey
WOuld have won handilv
