HIS ARM WAS ROASTED.

Frighifui Predioament OF a Worker
i'm II Paper Mill.
Philadelphia, Jan. 24.-Held with a
vise-lille grip, Lawrence Mcguire, twen-
ty-one years old, had his left arm slow
ly roasted before his eyes early yester-
day morning at Hamilton's Riverside
paper mills. Lafayette, Montgomery
county. He was employed as a helper
on a drying machine, and in performing
his duties accidentally got his arm be-
tween the slowly revolving hot rollers.
They dragged him toward them and
he was powerless to resist. His
screams. however, warned the engineer,
and the machine was stopped after his
arm had been drawn in rs far as the ell
bow. The dryer could not be reversed.
SO in that position, enduring untold
pain. he was held for nearly a quarter
of an hour, until his fellow-workmen
raised the roller and released him. The
flesh was literally roasted.

Hair Grower am
Scalp Cleaner.

The ladies in attendance, how
ever. are accustomed to this. and
saw that everyone was well taken
care of.
The most of these people said
they were glad that they came;
when they left they had learned
great deal worth learning. They
had seen something worth coming
to see. Were YOU one of them?
If not, we want 10 say right now,
for your benefit as we'll as for those
who failed to see our last an
nouncement, that there are but a
few DAYS left for the tardy ones.
The time of the exhibition is linn
tied: there are many hundreds of
people waiting elsewhere to see II.
This is positively the last week
here. and we know full well there
are lots of people yet who want to
see it and expect to see it, but are
putting it off from day to day un-
til something happens that Will
prevent them from coming at all.
These people will probably never
realize how much. they have missed
until their thinning locks and fall
len hair leaves them with disigur-
ing humiliating badness as a pen
atty for their neglect, while their
more careful brothers and sisters
will have prohted by the informa-
ton gained at this exhibition
and can glory i'll wealth of beau
tiful, luxuriant hair.
Don't put it off until tomorrow,
come today. Why can't YOU spend
a few minutes from your house
work or business for Your own
benefit? You may never have the
chance again. Why not accept it
now? Come by all means, and in
future years you will thank lis for
the invitation.

THE TRUE POPULISTS
MONTGOMERY P0PUusTS REPUGlATE FLU
SION WITH REPUBLICANS.
They Severely Scored the Traders and Traffick-
ers and Declared for Nothing but Old
lime PopuIist Principle.

Troy, n. c., Oct. Especial 1.-THE
populists of Montgomery county met in
regular convention in the court house
October 1ste A large delegation of the
representative men of the party were
in attendance. The sessions was harmoni-
Gus throughout, and the delegates eyinced
a spirit of principle and such determin-
eu purpose as has not been seen among
Popuists since 1892. The traders and
traffickers in principles and offices We're
severely scored by number of speakers,
which met with the most unanimous APP
proyal.
Every offer of fusion by the Republi-
cans was promptly declined.
The slogan of the white Man and
the White Metal viii be the motto CT
the Montgomery Populist.
TIE following preamble and resolu-
tions were passed without Il dissenting
voice:
Whereas. The Peoples party was or
gained for the purpose of correcting
certain evils which existed under the
administration of other parties; and
Whereas, the Peoples party has been
decoyed, by evil, designing men, into fu-
SION and disgrace with the Republican
party; and
Whereas, The Republican bosses have
ever dictated the Populist fusion candi-
dates and endeavored TO control them
when elected, to secure the ends of the
Republican party, regardless of Populist
principles.
I'VE, the Peoples party of Mont
gomery county, in convention assembled
in the court house in Troy. ON the first
day Of October, 1898. do resolve:
list. That we wilIsreturn to the origin

Republican County Convention Declines to Fill

(Whiteyille News.)

(NhlleNltle NeWS.l
The Columbus county Republican CON
vention met in the court house here last
Saturday, and was called to order by
Chairman Maultsby.
Rev. Il. S. w. Simmons was unani-
mously elected permanent chairman. He
is the negro whose name was signed
as secretary to the resolutions adopted
at Lake Waccamaw so warmly endors-
ing the Wholesale slanderer of white
women, Manly, OF Wilmington. He is as
black as ink, and understands thoroughly
how to run a negro political convention,
having received his training at New
bern. 1t was amusing to hear the few
white men present addressing his rever-
ance as Mister Chairman"
Il. b. Peacock (col.) was elected secre-
tary.
j. ID. Maultsby presented verbally the
report of the subcommittee appointed
to arrange fusion with the Populists.
He talked right out in meetin', too. He
said the two committees got together
and the Pops asked him to submit Il
proposition. He did so, Offering as Il
lows: Reps to have Senator, Sherl- "a
one commissioner; Pops to have balance.
Pops rejected this proposition, and when
their convention met left open for them
only two positions, and these not the
positions asked for. He said the Reps
had Loyalty supported the Pops in two
elections and if the time was ever coming
when they were to have any recognition
that time had now arrived. The Pops
cast about 700 votes and the Reps about
1000. He saw no use in Reps making
any nominations at ALL If they did
the Pops would scratch them and use
the Rep votes to pull through their part
of the ticket, and mentioned that one
third of the Pop convention in that court
house declared they would not support
Rep fusion. He called on the convention
to stand by its organization in the de-
mands ii had made. The Reps were not
pie hunters, but just wanted to beat
the common enemy-the Democratic par
ty. Said Pops We're after pie and didn't
want to divide county offices. He moved
that a committee be appointed to confer
and report on the Populist proposition
for fusion, which was adopted.
While this COMMITTEE was confering, II.
b. Register was called on for a speech.
He thought they had been ignored by the
Pops. The Pops refused TO coneede
them the office of sheriff and gave the
nomination to a man who didn't want it.
and who was trying to get out of the
nomination.
w Il. Dorset was also called on. He
was the only one present who acknowl-
edged that he even liked pie.
Rev. II. o. Spaulding (col.l, said Pops
were willing for Reps to roll their logs,
but didn't want them to have any bread.
The committee reported. recommending
that the Populist proposition be rejected,
and that their original proposition, de-
handing Senator, sheriff and a commits
sioner, be adhered to as the only basis
Of an honorable cooperation. The. re-
port was adopted without manifest oppo-
sition.
The matter was then left to the central
committee with one member from each
township added.
