Fifteen Lives Are Lost at

Two Men Die Striving to Save

Colombian, Texas July 1G.-iifteen lives
are know to have been lost in a cloud

recovered, but only two were identified.
They are
JOSEPH SPATH, leading merchant of
the village.
JOHN FULEISSTINE.
1t is feared that many more lives were
lost in the valley below Coleman. The
cloudburst, which followed three days
unprecedented rainfall caused Fords
Greek to burst it's banks and rush through
Coleman, village of less than 1000 cit
liens.
The beWildered citizens, reused from
their slumbers, rushed into the street:
and were swept away. Many were saved
by catching hold of pieces of timber and
navigating them into eddies formed by
the swift current, where they were drawn
ashore Spath and Fuleisstine managed
to mount their horses. They dashed into
the water and swan their horses to a
house where four little girls were scream
ing for help. Each rescued two of the
children whom they took upon their
horses The animals were swept away
however. in a noble effort to stem the
swift current and all were drowned.
Water has flooded the tracks of the
Gulf, Colorado and Sante Fee Railway for
miles around, and all traffic is stopped.

FACING BOTH, WAYS.

The Fusion spell-binders have been
going about the State telling the peo-
pie who are unable to pay tuition for
their children that if the amendment
is passed no effort will btA1made to i'm
prove the public schools, their children
will grow up without an education,
and after 1908 children coming of age
will be disfranchised. In recent
speech Decayed Baylus ''eXpatiated' to
considerable extent along this line,
winding up by telling the people that
the folks with property would not
consent to be taxed for better public
schools, and declaring that they were
opposed to public education anyhow
and that he knew the Baptists were
opposed to public schools. That was
a SANDER upon the people of the whole
State as well as upon the Baptist
church, whose leaders promptly re-
piduated the utterance. But this plan
of deception goes on and Fusionists
tell the voters that the Democrats do
not intend to improve the schools.
To show what liars they are, these
same Fusionists have issued a circular
letter to bankers, capitalists and man.

Failed to Bulldozs the Registrar.
(snecial TO News and Observer. }

Especial to News and Observer
Louisburg, N. c., July 1--we had a
case of trying to intimidate registrar
here last Saturday. A negro boy asked
to be registered, and the registrar, after
referring to the tax list and failing to
find that he had given in his poll for
taxation, told him that he would have to
have proof of his age. He went off and
came back with white man named
Wester. Populist, who said that he
knew that he was 81; that he had his
name and BIRTH put down in his Bible at
home. The registrar asked him who
had written it and he said that he had
himself. The registrar then asked his
own age and he said he was % years old,
and when the registrar asked if years
was not rather young for a boy to be
writing down names and ages in Bibles,
he got mad and began to curse the regis
trar and was promptly floored. There
was no little excitement at the time, but
fortunately the affair stopped at this.

sHOCKINGLY CORRUPT.

The sale by the Asheville Gazette
of its editorial columns to the Radicals
is the most shockingly corrupt trans
action ever known in North Carolina.
elsewhere TO advocate measures in
which they are interested, they have
bought presses and type and hired
editors to do their bidding-these
things are bad enough, but not SO
shockingly corrupt as the agreement
entered into by the editor of the Ashe-
vile Gazette with Senator Pritchard,
Collector Harkins, Col. V. S. Lusll, Dis
trict Attorney Holton and others, ito
oppose the constitutional amendment
and the election law" Editor Norton
received $4,000 in money for such sale
of his editorial columns and the
agreement was in writing.
Elsewhere we publish the affidavit of
Mr.. Somerville, who owned 375 out of
1900 of the shares of stock in the
Asheville Gazette, who adds in his
sworn affidavit that in repeated con-
versations between said Jas. f. Nor
ton and affidavit said James f. Nor
ton stated that his only motive in
opposing the said constitutional
amendment and election law was the
$1,000 paid by the Republican party
And this is the fellow who has had
the impudence to preach morals to the
editors of North Carolina and pose as
the special champion of the rights of
the people! And these are the meth
DDS Radical leaders are employing
to prevent permanent White Suprem-
acy in North Carolina!
The Radical bosses may buy the
Asheville Gazette and other like sheets
that have nothing in common with
Southern thought or Southern senti-
ment, but it cannot buy the people of
North Carolina, and it cannot fool
them by the insinuating misrepresen-
tation of such corrupt subsidized
sheets as the Asheville Gazette.

THE LATEST AMENDMENT LIE.
It Was Being Circulated Here Yesterday by
the Fusion Crowd.

1t had seemed as if all the lies that
possibly could be told about the
Amendment had been told, but the
Fusion gang here are fertile spawners
of the false. So yesterday they sprung
a new one, and it was this: If the
Amendment is adopted a man will
have to pay poll tax for ten years
longer than he does now.
OF course it is a lie, bald, bold and
barefaced, but they reasoned that it
might fool somebody. and if it did,
that much was gained.

The last sentence is true all over
North Carolina. All the trouble comes
from revenue officers and negroes.
Not one minute since in 1876,
was read the declaration that North
Carolina should not be controlled
by 'grass-hopper and revenue doodles''
have the people lost their hatred of the
attempt of revenue officers to control
the politics of the State. The liberty
loving people of this good State would
not submit in 1876 to the political ma
nipulation of revenue officers. THEY
