UNDEsERvED NAMES.
Wilkes County People Are Not Regulators"
and Don't Relish the Name.
(Wlkesboro Chronicle.)


Some OF the papers persist in giving
only the railroad version of the bond
case and speak of Wilkes people as
regulators and such undeserVed
names. These papers do not attempt
to state the facts that led to the suit
that the railroad had "repudiated" its
charter and promises, mad surreptitious-
ly taken the bonds from the county and
refused to give the county the stock
contracted, and in several ways goaded
the people to test their lights. Papers
commenting on the fact that Wilkes
won the bond case ougl to be fair
enough to state the facts as they are.
We have heretofore allied their atten-
tion to these facts. But if they are so
welded to their idols That they can see
only the railroad side, they will just
have to go it. We will not lose any
sleep over their criticisms. And as to
innocent purchasers, we do not know
OF any We have been informed that
the railroad properly endorsed and
guaranteed every bond sold, which is
the right and only regular business
course in such matters. Men who are
able to purchase bonds of course are
accustomed to doing business properly
and are not losers.
