APPEALS TO the LADIES.

Ladies in Politics Not Enough Leven to
Save the Lump.
In Franklin county, on June 30th
F, s. Spruil, of Louisburg, made
very nice speech on the constitution
al amendment, in which he made
an earnest appeal to the ladies, mar
ried and single, to use their influence
to carry the amendment and help
them out this time. He insisted that
they go to work and use every
means to change votes. Since then
we see great deal from the ladies.
But when the ladies do their work
there will be many who will not vi
olate their oath by voting for the
amendment. It seems the Demo

ulists since they have put their Ia
dies in politics. They used to abuse
and even rotten egg Weaver when
he would encourage ladies to use
their influence in politics. IF the
ladies are dragged into Democratic
IpOlitics and endorse red shirtism anG
rotten egg throwing, l fear there
will not be enough religious leaveI
. left to purify and save the rotor

For the Caucasian.

cartoon Senator Butler and DR..
Thompson, rs though they were
advocating negro rule over whites.
Here in Cumberland county the
Democratic county Board of Elec-
tions refused to honor the petition
of Populists and put on in their
stead, negroes a. judges of elections.
They put the blackest and meanest
negroes on as judges for white men
to vote under.
They delight to show the cartoon
around about Sen. Butler putting
that mulatto boy on the stand at
Morganton. We have few who
howl negro, and yet some of the
negroes could call them father. The
idea of men voting to disfranchise
their own flesh and blood!

DR.. THOMPSON SPEAKS.

The Populists and Republicans Nominate
Good Ticket in Lincoln-A Large
Representative Audience Present.
1t was our privilege to be at Lin
colnton Monday, July 9th. There
was large representative body of
farmers and voters present-more
than was expected for Monday and
in so busy a season. They were
there for business and not for pie
and beef, and their way was not
paid either.
The Populists and Republicans
held their county conventions. They
held them separately. The result
was a good strong ticket as follows:
For Representative, J. NJ. HOyle;
Register of Deeds, w. c. Mullen;
Coroner, S. Baxter Beal; Sheriff, j.
E. Hoover; Treasurer, J. L. Yount;
County Commissioners, Fl. o. Proc
tor, Melvin HOvis, j. l.. Shrum,
Andrew Sain and P. A. Reep.
The above ticket is composed of
good representative gentlemen and
unless the people are prevented
voting their honest sentiments, they
will be elected.
After the convention, DIR. ThOmp
son, Peoples Party candidate fol
Governor, addressed court houst
full of voters, there being but few
boys and only one woman, and they
ali listened with great attention

Senator Buffers campaign in the
western counties has been one of the
most successful he has ever made.
In the busiest time of the year, his
appointments poorly advertised and
no effort made to get out a crowd, he
has had large audiences wherever he
has spoken. In Alexander and Cald.
well counties his crowds were murh
larger than those of the opposition,
and at Statewide the large new
court house was packed. Senator
Butler is q man of the people, hi,

Charlotte.
The Charlotte News of Friday,
June 90, reports that on that day
Charles Crowder, a white man from
MoOresville, was chained to negro
and driven by negro overseer
through the streets of Charlotte. The
News says:
GA white prisoner chained to ne
gro.
'It was this sight that made the
blood of Charlotte white men boil
this morning.
"On East Trade street a negro
"trusty" was driving chain gang
wagon and in this wagon in his
charge were two prisoners, white
man and negro, chained together.
"Probably fifty people saw them
as the wagon moved down Trade
street. White men were indignant
at the sight and asked hotly who was
responsible for the outrage. Mr..
John P. Morris saw it and resolved
at once to get the white mans re-
lease. He asked the prisoner what
he was sent to the chain gang for,
and when told the amount of the
fine proceeded to raise it in short or.
der.

Charles Crowder, and he was from
MOoresville. 81 was arrested for q
plain drunk" he said. 81 didn't

the present fine $3.50, but the police
added to the bill the balance due or

amount $50, so I had to serve tim

Cstawba County Populists met In

July 9TH. The large court house

ters, estimated at from 500 to I, 200.
A more intelligent body of honest,
determined farmers and good citi-
zens never met anywhere to hold a
convention and to hear political
speaking.
The Populists and Republicans
have agreed to run a joint ticket In
Cstawba. The Republicans had al
ready nominated their part Of the
ticket. The Democrats nominated
men for the following offices: Rep
resentative, Sheriff, Coroner and two
Commissioners. The ticket named
by both parties is q good, strong one.
Capt. James III. Sheriff. was NOM
mated for the Legislature. There Ii
no better man in the State. He l. a
farmer and one Of the most promi-
nent men in the county. He IL also
a Christian gentleman and has the
confidence Of everybody, and If there
is fair election, the ticket will win.

County Board Of Election says they
are going to carry the county, If they

To the Times-DemOcrat.
Section of the amended suffrage
