informed Republicans point out
Pritchard as the man. The latter,
like Senator Butler, knows that
this term ends his senatorial life.
\ Populists are saying that there
will be a revolt against Senator
Butler and his determined effort
to enforce their State Convention
to'array itself in opposition to the
franchise amendment. They are
telling Republicans as much. Sem
ator Butler will be surprised at
the dimensions of this revolt. He
will find that he cannot make Pop
ulists get in line against white
supremacy. They showed him this
in 1898. THIS year they will illus
trate it even more plainly.
The Republicans have had an
idea that they were going to in
duce Attorney-G General Wslser to
declare himself against theAmend-
ment. AS he remarked to-day,
they do not know him. He will
take no such step, nor will he an
tagonize the Amendment. He was
speaking to a Republican and a
Democrat when the Republican
made the statement hit a certain
Populist had said he would vote
against the Amendment for fear
he would be disfranchised. "Not
at ALL" said the Attorney Gen
eral, sit is impossible, provided
he registers before 1908" This
indicates tn able Republicans

COTTON 25 YEARS OLD.
Mr.. Boyd. of This County. Sells
Two Lots of Old Cotton.
Some Comparative
Figures.

Charlotte Observer.
MI. William Boyd, n Of the
most prosperous farmers of the
lower part of the county, sold to
j. w. Miller & Co., of this city,
20 bales of cotton yesterday, IL
of which had been stored away in
an old barn 25 years, and 9 of
which had been on hand for 10
years. The price paid for the cot
ton yesterday was 9 cents.
In 1875, when the first lot of
Mr.. Boyd's cotton was produced,
the price ranged from Ii lie to
III cents; in 1880 from 10 11-16
to 134; and in 1890 from 9 lie
to 124.
Had Mr.. Boyd sold his II bales
in 1875, when it was produced;
assuming that each bale weighed
500 pounds, he would have receiv-
ed for the lot 1862, SO, wien for
the same cotton yesterday he was
paid $495. At 6 per cent inter-
est 1862. so for 20 years, would
bake brought to Mr.. Boyd $1.155.
IF in 1890 the 9 bales had been
sold at the highest price, 124
cents, they would have brought
$541. 25, when yesterday they
brought bat S4O5.

BUTLER WANTS FUSION.
Assumes to Predict For Demo-
cratic Convention.

cratic COnY0ntlOH.
Raleigh Post.
Senator Buffers latest is a
proposition to fuse on national
issues.
In this weeks Caucasian, Butler
let's out his scheme. Evidently
he has not profted by the Tom
Watson experience. Whether he
wants to swing himself or Judge
Caldwell on to Mr.. Bryan as a
vice-presidential candidate re-
mains to be seen.
Butler says among other
things, in an editorial in The
Caucasian this week:
"The Democratic National
Committee, which was in session
in Washington last week, called
the National Convention to meet
at Kansas City July 4, This is
the latest date that any national
convention has been held Of any
party in many years. It was we'll
known that MIR. Bryan favored
an early date. Therefore the ac-
ton of the committee in fixing
such a very late date is no doubt
a surprise to the public. The
national committeeman from Me-
braska, Chairman Jones and 9TH
ers known to be closest to Mr..
Bryan favored a date not later
than the 9th of June. 1t is clear
that the purpose of those who
wanted a late date was to try to
prevent cooperation between the
Democrats, Populists and Silver
Republicans on Bryan. But the
people, when aroused, will not be
sidetracked or misled by politi-
cans, and we predict that the
convention, in spite Of these
schemes, will declare for harmon
ious cooperation"
DIR. D. III. Abbott returned
from his home in Pamllco county
yesterday, and, after viewing the
conditions there, he has come to
the conclusion that this is a bad
year fer his party.
"The Democrats have got
things their way in Pamlico," the
Doctor said, 81 doubt whether the
Republicans will put out a ticket.
You Democrats will not have to
send any speakers to Pamlico. Mr..
Simmons can call appointments
off right now"
Butler is not going to have
plain sailing when the Populist
State Convention meets here. The
DETECTION of straight Populists 10
the amendment ranks during the
past four weeks has assumed conr
siderable proportions. More than
a dozen leaders in The party have
declared against Buffers efforts
to coerce Populists into the Re-
publican anti-amendment cam
paign. The information comes
pretty straight that these Popu'
lists will attend the State conven.
ton and give the Senator from
Sampson something to think
about.

Especial Correspondence
Raleigh, N. c., February %,
1900.
It is astonishing how short the
memory of the Republican lead
ers is. Take for instance Reves
nue. Collector Carl Duncan, who
locks after Republican affairs in
all Eastern North Carolina. He
was speaking about the Leglsla-
ture which is to be elected this
year aud offered to bet it would
be Republican. No doubt he in
cluded Populists ia his count,
as the Republicans Invariably
speak Of themselves and Popu>
lists jointly as 1--WE" Then he
said that as soon as the Legisla-
ture was elected Governor Rus
sci would convene it and that it
would Immediately meet and re-
peal the present election law.
Collector Duncan declared that
after this it would bs no trouble
for "ua" % elect congressman.
What shorGness Of memory.
Does he really think for the mer
est portion of a second that the
Democrats in North Carolina and
those who Stood shoulder to
shoulder with them in 1898 at
the election have SO soon for
gotten the negro rule in this
State in 1897-'98? 1t is incon-
ceivable that in one year any
people so determined could ever
think Of returning to such a
state OF affairs. If Collector Dun
can bets he will lose as he lost
in 1898, for if there are three
things certain besides death and
tax S in this year Of grace, 1900,
they are that the Democrats will
carry the Legislature and elect
their Congressional nominees
and that the Constitutional
Amendment will be ratified by a
maj ority more than gratifying.
Senator Butler is flooding the
State with copies of his speech in
Congress against the franchise
amendment to th9 Constitution.
THIS plea for negro supremacy is
being sent out by Republicans un-
der the Senator's frank. Collector
Duncan, for example, is sending
out some Thousands OF copies. CO.
lector Duncan has a great admira-
ton for the Senator; in fact, he
said a few days since he loved
him. This tenderness is very bear
tiful. 1t has increased considerably
since the winter and early spring
Of 1897.
Republican STU Chairman
HoIton. one of the bitterest of all
the Republicans, had some crit
icisms to make of Governor Rus
sell's frank statement made at 9
banquet in Chicago, in which The
Republicans were arraigned fol-
allowing themselves 10 be placed
in antagonism to the Constitution
al Amendment. The Governor
sees far more clearly than Holtor
the Handwriting on the wall
He knows what the white men OF
the State will do at the polls next
August. The Governor dismissed
Holton's criticism with a few con.
t%,mptuous words.
1t is h rlly probable that the
session of the Legislature in June
will last more than one week OF
that it will do things other thar
the PAL ticular thing for which i,

they need G4iy little help and they will
right themselves. Cathartics irritate the
sensitive Innings of the stomach and
bowels and often do more harm than
good.
Purging is not what is needed. The
thing to do is to put the food in condi-
tion to be readily digested and assimi-
lated Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do
this perfectly. They partly digest what
is eaten and give the stomach Just tie
help 1t needs. They stimulate the S2cre-
tion and excretion of the digestive fluids
and relieve the congested condition Of the
glands and membranes. They put the
whole digestive system in condition to
do its work When that is done you ed
take no more tablets, unless you cat
what does not-agree with you. Then take
one or two tablets-giye them needed
