AGE FORBIDDEN TO WED YOUTH

Frederick Renard, of Oakland,
Neb., although "a years old, is anX-
ious to marry and the girl of his
choice is aged but % years, Nellie
Craig, the belle of the town. Rem
ards estate is valued at $2O0,OO0.
The family of the aged suitor sees
ulteriOr motives in Miss Craig's
readiness to wed, and they are MAX
ing every effort to check the affair
before she gets hand in the old
mans strong box. TO do this appli-
cation was made in Knox county for
the appointment of guardian for
him, but the process requires l5 days
notice and the old man learning of
this, started for the license bureau.
His relatives beat him to the court
house and got out papers enjOining
the clerk from issuing license until
after the matter of guardianship
had been settled. Since, the old man
and the younger Renards have been
racing about the country, the one
seeking a license and, so far, the
others beating him to the courthous-
es and procuring injunction papers.
So far eight injunction papers have
been issued against the aged suitOr.

THE CRAIG.PRITCHARD DEBATE
TONIGHT.

Tonight at the Hall of the House
of Representatives. the sixth OF
the series of joint discussions be-
tween Hon. Locke Craig and Hon. Jeter
C. Pritchard will take place. The people
of the capital city are anxious to hear
the discussion and will greet the speak
ers with an audience representative of
the best sentiment of this good city.
In Senator Pritchard, the Republicans
have as their champion, their ablest and
best leader. He is North Carolina Re-
publicanism incarnate. He stands for
Republican government, Republican prin-
ciples, Republican ideals. He is a train
ed experienced, aggressive campaigner-
the best the Republican party has pro-
duced in this generation.
In Mr.. Craig, the Democrats have a
champion of whom they are justly proud.
No Democrat need be afraid of his
party's cause while Mr.. Craig upholds its
banner. He is well posted at every point,
his devotion to Democratic principles is
deep and abiding, his faith in the funda-
mental doctrines of his party is un-
clouded. He is easily one of the ablest,
most eloquent, and convincing public
speakers this State has known. In this
series of debates he has more than met
the high expectations of his friends, has
strengthened Democrats in the faith, and
sent CONSERVATION into the ranks OF
those who wish to compass Democracy s
defeat.
The speaking will begin at 1880 o'clock
sharp. Mr.. Craig will open the debate.
Mr.. Pritchard will follow and Mr.. Craig
will close the debate. Raleigh Will
greet them with a magnificent audience.

BLACKBURN IN sTANLY.
"At Times His Language Was Neither chaste
Nor Elegant"
(Stanly Enterprise

Congressman Blackburn spoke here
Monday afternoon and at night. The
best reply to his speech would be a ver-
batim reproduction of it. He has no ar
gument to offer. nor does he discuss is
sues. He presumes upon the ignorance
of his hearers and leads them to be-
lieve that vote for the Republican tick
ct is equivalent to vote for good crops
and high priced cotton. He told his hear
ers what American citizenship means,
and of what great person Uncle sam
is abroad, under a Republican admins
tration but how insignificant under a
Democratic. His speech was noted Tor
high sounding platitudes At times his ian
guage was neither chaste nor elegant
despite the fact that ladies were present
He seems as proud of his fine appearance
as the peacock does of its plumage, ana
his every act and utterance is pregnant
with the suggestion that 81 am Congress
man Blackburn, and you are darn
fool il you don't vote for me-"
No one who heard his address won
ders why he did not meet Hon. Theo.
F. Kluttz in a joint canvass. HIS empty
utterances would fall as fast under Mr..
Kluttzs whitening response as DO the
faded leaves under the blasts OF autumn.
No, Mr.. Blackburn was afraid OF his OBJ
ponent and is simply too big coward TO
face him He knows that if the fallacioui
statements contained in his speech are
once exposed his chances would be small.
His ability as q Congressman is meas
ured by his ability at speech making.
The judgment here is that he is too igno-
rant of national affairs or else he Is too
lazy in the enjoyment of good time to
better inform himself. From present in
dications he will be Overwhelmingly de-
feated

THE TARIFF AND TRUSTS.

The withdrawal of the tariff duties on
all articles controlled by trusts would at
once destroy the power of seventy five
per cent of the trusts to raise the price
of the necessaries of life upon the peo-
pie. 1t would be, for most trusts, cut
ting the tail of the dog off just behind
the ears.
If Mr. Pritchard is willing to give a
solar plexus blow to trusts he will prom
Use the people to vote for bill to deny
protection to all articles controlled by
trusts That is one sort of legislation
which will be effective in reaching most
trusts. 1t does not affect in any way
any manufacturing concern outside Of the
trusts The man who refuses to with
draw the bonus now given through tariff
duties to the trusts is voting to make
the trusts richer at the expense of all
consumers.

A Strange Case.
(Stanly Enterprise.0

Judge Neal, in conversation with an
Enterprise reporter last week, said that
he would be called upon at Troy court
this week to sit upon one of the stTangest
cases he has ever heard or read OF. In
1889 Dan Gould was convicted of murder
in Montgomery and sentenced to be
hanged. He made his escape, and has
been a fugitive from justice ever since.
A few months ago a man was arrested
in South Carolina, and identlned by par
ties as Dan Gould. But the prisoner pro-
+eeted and said his name was not Gould
and that he had never been in Montgom-
cry county; said that his home was in
Norfolk. and reliable party from that
Mace testified as to the truthfulneSs OF
his statements. Judge Neal has been
seeking for some law TO JUSTLY MN IN
letting the iury pass upon the identity
of tho man. Much interest is manifested
in the case, and it is conjecture as to
whether the man is Dan Gould or not.

telling he is a Baptist and resents the

he keep the respect of the public? mis-
is what a number of gentlemen are DONG
in politics. They call themselves Demo-
Gratis and resent the charge that they
are not, yet for several years they have
not been voting the ticket except in so
far as it has suited their own ideas and
in national matters have voted the ticket
of the opposition. They are entitled to
their opinions and to exercise their vot-

Among the Railroads.

The Aberdeen Telegram gives the par
ticulars of a terrible accident that oc-
CURED there on Tuesday about O'Clock.
1t saws: "a negro boy about fourteen
years old, the son of John Farrar, who
works on the shifting force here, jumped
on the steps of the second class coach
of the passenger train of the Aberdeen
and Ashboro Railroad as it was going
around the Y to turn around and was
caught in between a small platform near
the Tarbell Lumber Company's mill and
the coach and was mashed to death al
most instantly. No one saw the boy on
the train or when the accident occurred,
but the evidence were on the coach and
platform to bear out the facts. The boy
was seen sitting on a box car near the
w. B. Eckhout office and as he worked
at the Tarbell mill it is supposed that he
got on the step on the coach on the oppo-
site side from the Porter, who was on the
rear of the train. and with his back TO
the platform did not notice it until he
was struck Our town authorities should
take strong actions against boys jump
ing on trains and enforce them to tie
letter."
