Douglass in Clinton Again.

L
Mr.. W. c. Douglass, of Raleigh, who
spoke here on the night Of May 28tb,
came ok last saturday, July 7th, to
lick his calf over again; but it seems
that be ok, d the hair the wrong way
both lines. OF course he denied almost
every thing that he SAL hire before.
But what we have written, we have
written, and our names are standing
th-re as memnrials against him, and
we have taken back nothing, for he
said what is CHARGED against him, and
any s, mblin head that heard his speech
saturday knows that it was void of ar
gument ard the issues, as usual, prin-
cipally LAID in he back ground Any
symblin head, as he cal ed US, could
take in a speech like that without
straining his nerves or exercising his
brains. Come again, Mr.. Douglass
for each visit brings strength to the
POpulIst party.
Next Saturday is the last day of reg.

The fire which destroyed the i'm

disastrous which has ever occurred In

The fivemen were vel pouring water on
the burning Chenapgo street estab-
lishment, the Kilmers we're arranging
to do business somewhere else.
That this great industry might not
be crippled for a moment, through the
courtesy of other prominent firms and
citizens, the large factory and adjoin-
ing buildings on South street were va
Gated for the benefit Of the Swamp
Root people, and possession was tsken
Immediately, and here, by Monday,
July 8, this new, temporary factory
will be turning out Swamp Root, the
great Kidney Remedy, in quantities OF
about $4,000 bottles per day, and In
Two or three weeks the full capacity OF
more than four times that amount viii
be produced. The immense demand fol
Swamp Root will thus in no way be in

pleted.

Registrar.
FAYETTEvILLE, N. c., July z, 1900.
cant. J.B Lloyd and Hon. John Z.
Kelly. Of South Dakota, spoke here to-
day To an immense crowd.
The large Court House was packed
IA It's uttermost There was not stand
ing room left. Capt. Lloyd's speech
was able and convincing, and was well
received by the crowd.
When Congressman Kelly arose, he
vas greeted with tremendous applause.
Nr. Kelly said that he thought that ali
the cry Of fraud in elections In the
South was bOsh until he came to North
Carolina, and to his surprise he found
fraud on every hand.
He told the Democrats present that
II they did not want a Force Bill placed
upon them, that the only way to pre-
vent It was to have honest and fair
elections. He said that Democratic
promises Of better schools after the
adoption Of the amendment was decep-
ton, because under the constitution of
North Carolina, the limit of taxation
was 8625 per cent. They could not and
would not carry out their promises
He said that the democratic party had
reduced illiteracy in twenty years 4-tO
Of one per cent and at that ratio, it
would take 1900 years TO educate the
people Of North Carolina
Mr.. Kelly's discussion of the amend
mcnt was unanswerable. He said it
was unconstitutional, and cited au-
thority from the most eminent lawyers
in the United states.
His denunCiation of the Legislature
for adding another section, instructing
the Supreme Court of the United States
was severe. There were several law
yers present, and he often asked them
to correct him If he was not e wing
facts and law, but none disputed.
Your correspondent interviewed some
Of the ablest lawyers in Fayetteville
upon the legal discussion of Mr. Kelly
and every one said it was one of the
abest legal Arguments they ever heard
We talked with quite number o.
Democrats who were for the amend
ment until they heard Mr.. Kelly.
We were informed that one of tn,
Democratic Registrars was beastly
drunk to-day, and the people who at
tended the polling place left wit hou
registering lie was walowing on tn
ground with the Registration book il

Tragic Fate of Deputy United states

SALT LAKE. Utah. oct. GA special
to the Tribune from Helena, Mont. says:
Deputy United States Marshal SamJack-
son fell from the first floor of the cap
itol building last night. receiving Injuries
from which he died three hours later.
Jackson was the best known officer in
Montana. He was a pioneer of the Black
Hills, and had spent his whole life In the
West. For years he was a government
scout on the frontier, and was famous
for his daring In number of Indian cam
patgns As a civil officer he had hunted
and fought horse thieves and cattle
rustlers in the Hole-in-the- Wall country
and throughout all Eastern Montana. He
was fine shot. and his courage was al
ways equal to every occasion.
Jackson was an under sheriff of Sweet
Grass county when he trailed the men
who held up and robbed the Northern Pa
cific mail and express train at Grey Ciin
