THE FIRST NORTH CAROLINA
Ordered to Communicate With General
Wade

Jacksonville. Fla, August G.-Orders
have been received for the First North
North Carolina regiment in camp here
and the First Alabama and Second Texas
regiments, now ut Miami to commune
cate with General Wade at Washington
and to hold themselves in readiness for
early departure for Porto Rico. THESE
orders were sent from Washington be-
fore the prospects for peace were so fav-
orable as they are now. and it is sur
missed that there may be Il change and
that the regiments will remain in the
State.
Brigader General w. w. Gordon and
staff of the First Division. Seventh army
corps, have come up from Tampa and
taken up their headquarters here.
Major Harrison. as provost marshal,
has had five companies on duty today do
ing provost guard duty. The fact that the
troops are being paid off and the natural
inclination at such times for more or less
boisterousness to display itself has made
a precaution of this kind eXpedient.
Corporal Trace. Of Company |, Second
Virginia regiment, is in the division hos
pital seriously injured from being knock
ed over the head with heavy stick in
the hands of Private Page in the same
company Page became incensed at
Trace for ordering him to do some light
work. and following him to an out house.
struck him over the back of the head.
While seriously injured. the skull was
not fractured and he may recover. Page
will plead temporary insanity.
The condition of Sergeant Garrett, of
Company G.. Second Alabama regiment
who was stabbed by Sergeant Robinson,
of the same regiment, on Friday, is criti-
cal.
The Second Virginia regimental band
made its appearance at the regimental
concert tonight. and gave a most excel
lent programme. The attendance was
unusually large.
The Second Texas regiment is eX-
pected here in the morning from Miami
and the Ninth Illinois in the evening
from Springfield, I'll.

Redeem the State.
(Monroe Journal)
Mr.. J. X. Polk. of Sandy Ridge, who
has been voting the Populst ticket. says
he is going into the Democratic prima-
ries Friday. He says he, like others
thought that by going to the Populisl
party he could in some way better
things, but he has found out his mis-
take.
Mr.. Brown Laney, of Buford town
ship, who has been Il Populist, says the
leaders of that party are too much like
travelling sewing machine agents to suit
him. He has therefore washed his
hands of them for good and will go
into the Democratic primaries. Mr..
Laney stands for white mans govern
ment.
Mr.. G.. 4. Helms, the well-known one
legged Confederate veteran, informs
that he has washed his hands for good
and always of the fusion business. He
says he was n Republican for thirty
years and for the last few years has
been n Populist, but is gong in to help
nominate good men for office, and vote
for them in the election. He says that
Il black negro approached him some
time ago and said the Populists and Re
publicans must divide up the ticket
equally again. He has quit the whole
business.

Chapel Hill, y. C., August 6.--(Spe-
ial.)-The passing of the Summer
School with it's earnest activities and the
attractive people it brings together al
ways leaves Chapel Hill little fiat This
year, however, the unusually large and
able law class has helped TO brighten up
things and to give the silent grounds the
appearance of student life. There are
forty students in the class, and they
are making Il great record for ability
and studiOusness.
If things are quiet on the campus
il is not so in the Presidents office. This
is the busiest season of the year there,
preparing for the opening in September.
Dr. Alderman declares that the prospects
for an unusually large attendance is
greater than ever before ana last years
phenomenal record will probably be
broken. There will be a good number
from South Carolina. Virginia and Geor-
ga as well as some of the Western
States. About ten young women win
enter the advanced classes, two applying
for the Masters degree.
Extensive and useful changes are
being made in the University library
both externally and internally under the
supervision Of DR.. Alexander and Mr..
Wyche. Librarian of the University OF
Texas.
DR.. Alderman who has lately returned
from speaking tours in Catawba and
Guilford will speak to the farmers at

THE GILMAN REACHED.
The Negroes in Wilson Vote for The
Fusion Sheriff Because They Say He
Lets Them Escape.
Wilson NewS.)

The climax in the poor management
of the county government was reached
last night when the entire chain gang
broke jail and turned themselves loose
on the county. Our county prison is
useless under such incompetent manage
mcnt. The taxpayers of the county are
paying out taxes to support jail which
is thus made useless because those who
are supposed to manage it have proven
themselves utterly incapable of doing
so.
So far has this gotten TO be the case
that one of the worst negroes in the
county, n notorious criminal, was heard
to say that every negro IN the county
would surely vote for the present sheriff
in the coming election, ana gave rs his
reason for such statement that when
negro committed crime ne knew that
he could easily slip through the sheriff $
hands.

MT. D1nElcy Says 1t Protects From
Foreign, Not Domestic Competition.
Chairman Dingley of the ways and means
committee yesterday afternoon defended
his tariff law at some length in the House.
Mr. Dingley said that he felt impelled to
speak on the subject on account Of COM
ments on the Industrial situation, which
had existed in certain northern states dur
ing the past thirty days. He said
"Of course, after such a revulsion Of bus
mess as we have had during the last three
years, recuperatfon must be slow; but that
the process of recuperation has begun is
evident in nearly every direction but one"
Mr.. Dingiey then explained that excep-
tional circumstances have arisen to cause
these reverses in the cotton industry. He
called attention to the sudden decline in the
prices of cotton and to the further fact
that the planters of the south have per-
sisted in growing at least two millions of
bales more cotton than the world wanted
for its consumption.
He dwelt on the wages paid in New Eng
land and in the south, and on the differ

ing that the only salvation lay in the south
