FOREST FIRES RAGING.
Many Acres Burned Over and Hundreds of

Many Acres Burned Over and Hundreds of
Dollars Lost in Consequence.
For number of days forest fires
have been raging in all parts of this
county, and as a consequence hun
dreds of dollars worth of growing
timber has been destroyed, fences
burned, and in some instances the
safety of dwellings and barns on out
lying farms have been threatened.
Along the Hooppole Road a stretch
of country extending from Kings
Hill to the tramway has been burned
over. To the south and west of Oak
land smoke has been rising in great
clouds since Sunday. Down along
the Seventeen-mile grade the noun
tains in all directions are blazing and
lower down in the county in the vi
cinity of the Great Savage Mountain
the residents are greatly alamed for
the safety of their homes and build
ings.
In the mountains to the west of
Oakland and in the vicinity of Terra
Alta the farmers are out en- masse
fighting the flames.
Smoke has almost entirely obscured
the sun in this locality and when the
moon rises above the horizon at night
it resembles a great globe of fire.
Along the mountain sides the scene
at night is said to be grand, and at
the same time frightful, as the fire
leaps from crag to crag and all the
time growing more dangerous and
threatening, it dies down and then
looming up more brilliantly than ever
it sweeps along with resistless force
devouring everything in its path.
If rain does not soon fall there is no
telling when the fire will cease.

During the winter of 1897 Mr.. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens and
merchants Of Clay, Clay Co., w. Va,
struck his leg against cake of ice in
such manner as to bruise it severe
ly. 1t became very much swollen
and panied him so badly that he
could not walk without crutches.
He was treated by physicians, also
used several kinds of liniment and
two and a half gallons of whiskey in
bathing it, but nothing gave any
relief until he began using Chamber
lain's Pain Balm. This brought al
most a complete cure in a weeks
time and he believes that had he not
used this remedy his leg would have
had to be amputated. Pain Balm is
unequaled for sprains, bruises and
rheumatism. For sale by Oakland

WHITE SUPREMACY IN BALTI-
MORE

One Of the most exciting municipal
campaigns in its history is being waged
in Baltimore. That good city has been
governed by Democrats for twenty
years until three years ago when there
was division IN the party. Then the
Republicans. aided by the solid negro
vote, slipped in. The result has been
bad government in Baltimore.
The hope Of the Republicans retaining
power il in .stnffing fhe ballot boxes
with illegal negro votes. In few wards
about 400 more negroes were found
registered than there are negro voters
residing in those wards. The Demo
Gratis are aroused and determined TO re-
storc the city 10 the hands Of competent
white men.
There can be no good. stable, just
government In any Southern town. city
or State unless il il based upon White
Supremacy. Baltimore is going through
what North Carolina experienced In
her struggles TO restore good government
North Carolina sends its prayer and good
wishes.
