State Librarian. Referring to his caDdi-
dacy, the Christian Advocate says:
''Alr NJ. o. Sheriff., of Newton, stopped
over on Monday in Greensboro to see his
daughter, Mrs. Sidney Alderman. We
were glad to see him in our Office. He is
a candidate for State Librarian and was
on his way to Raleigh. There are sever
al most worthy gentlemen whose friends
desire to see them elected to this place,
but there are none more worthy than
Bro. Sheriff.. He was a brave Confeder

has long been leading Democrat in his
section of the State, and if elected would
make popular and efficient librarian.
We hope he viii get the place"

(Columbin Record, 2Sth.)

The call Of tho President for 35,
OOO volunteers for duty in tho Phil
lpplnes made yesterday has Justified
new interest in army affairs, and
while ho may have Il hard time SO
curing that number it. is probable
that conditions will bo such as to in
duce many Of Lhc OK volunteers who
saw no active fighting to take a
turn at it again.
C"l. James II. Tillman, Of tho late
First regiment, previous TO tho call
wrote to PreH''.ent Mckinley Offering
his services, AMI he believes that he
can rails" Il regiment in this State. Hc
WAS popular with the mcmbcrs of tho
regiment and many Of them have told
him personally and have written to
him stating that thoy would re.enlist
under him. Colonel Tilmun has
not yet received instructions to or.
ganlzo regiment, though ho has
received assurance from the prcsi,
dent that his services would be ac.
copied.
According to tho Telegram giving
partial details Of tho proposed en-
lisiment, there will bo no call upon
the States, but regiments will be or.
ganizcd with regard to State limits,
but the President will appoint Off
GERS. 1t is further stated that i'm the
enlistments for tho United States
volunteers, veterans of the lato war,
including those who did not get be-
yond the homo camps, but were sca-
soned, will be given the preference,
and tho samo will be true of the Off
GERS. A bridgadier general for
every three regiments and major
general for each division of thrco
brigndes will be appointed. They
will be part regulars and part vol
mtecrs, and Gen. Joo Wheeler will
bo among the number
So far as the recruiting Office hore
is concerned, there has boon no dis
position shown to enlist amongst
white mon. A great many negroes
have applied and have been rejected
for various reasons.
However, Colonel TilIman, if he
receives instructions from the Prcsi
dent, will issue call for his old reg
iment to respond. He believes they
will, and he feels certain they will
cover themselves with glory. About
this tho whole State has no doubt

IN the afternoon in Glasgow Hollow,
where tho negroes had congregatod,

soon spread and an armed body or
white miners moved toward tho hol-

Rudolph Williams will live.
The trouble started yesterday,
when it was thought that John Shep.
herd, who, on last Wednesday after.
noon assaulted Mis-. Monroe Jones,
near Corona, was in TINT community.
The negroes armed themselves to
prevent his capture Both sides
were aroused and only the timely ar
rival Of the sherilf's posse prevented
an outbreak. This morning the ne,
gro miners held Il mass meeting and
refused to go to work. They all be-
long to secret order known as The
"Knights of Aflica," or the "Myste.

ammunition on hand at all times,
1t was in tho afternoon that thew
gathered in Glasgow Hollow, al,
though with what intention is not

Influential citizens say that the
rlngleaders are now out of the way
and they hope to manage the other
negroes. Ed Ellis, the head of the
band, and holding the chi,f Office in
the secret organization, made Il
speech to the negroes just before his
death, telling them not to believe
what the white officers had told
them, and swearing that he, for one,
