for leasing the oil lands owned by the
crown in the district of Baku, in order
to reduce the price of coal oil, which

government 40 per cent of the oil pro-
duced "in natura," so that the govern
ment can become a competitor in the

will be commemorated in a novel way
by the state Of New Hampshire,
through the presentation of %appropri-

two most recent additions to the navy

sarge. A commission appointed to
recommend a suitable gift from New
Hampshire to the Kearsarge reported
in favor of a tablet and added the sug-

fought and sunk the old Alabama, it
would be a pleasing pledge to the
reunion if a replica of the tablet for
the new Kearsarge were placed on the
new Alabama.

GRAND FUSION RALLY.
The Fusionists Start Their Campaign at Mil
burnie and Come to Grief

After a very extensive postfHg
throughout the county. the fusion cam
didates. who failed to decline nomina-
ton. spoke at Milburnie yesterday. II.
H. Knight, II. +. King, of Onslow, VINO
was dropped here upon the manure
pile by the Fusionists, an man whose
name is Stancil were the only ones
present. There were by actual county
twenty-five sleepy negroes, one Re
publican. the late j. Rowan Rogers
and twelve Democrats, who had cu7
riosity enough to hear the eloquent
speakers. Not a single Fusion Popp-
list was upon the ground, except the
three candidates above named. ii. II.
knight was master of ceremonies and
conducted the meeting. 1t will be re-
membered that this man Knight two
wears ago made a statement showing
that the county at that time. was
eight or ten thousand dollars worse
off than under Democratic rule. 1t
will further be remembered that when
the Democrats came in in December,
upon investigation it was found that
Knight was defaulter to the amount
of $1491 GA, and that the Democratic
Board of Commissioners required him
to fork it over to the county. 1t can
be readily seen what Knights purpose
was in telling the Democrats two
years ago that the Fusion crowd had
squandered eight of ten thousand dol
lars of the county money. He was at
that time a defaulter. as the money
had been in his hands for about a
wear before the Democratic board
oh
anxious to make fair weather with
the Democrats in order to cover up his
defaltcation. Knight has been in
flaming the negroes in his section of
the county and it was surprising that
only twenty-five of his negro neigh
bors turned out in his own township
to hear him today.
He said in the few remarks that he
made that he did not know whether
the other candidates on the fusion
ticket would accept or not.
The late manure pile man attempted
to fertilize the crowd by injecting in
every sentence the word lie The
negroes of the crowd were already
well fortified and paid but little at
tention to Kings efforts. King said
among other things, that some re-
spectacle gentlemen had tried to pull
him off the Fusion ticket. but he in
tended to stick to the negro as long
as he had breath. Stancil only said:
ME too and after the speaking.
Stancil, the late Sheriff Rogers and
Jerry Smith, the negro boss of the
precinct, stepped aside on the river
bank and held private conversation
and it was reported by the small crowd
present, that Jerry advised them to go
home and give up the fight.
