CONVICTED OF SANDER.

For several days the Raleigh Tribune,
now going ,gnder the alias of the Morn
ing Post, 3has been telling its readers
that the NSws and observer had been
"doctoring news and claiming Mr.. An
drew Joyner as it's authority. This pa
per has not deigned to deny the basely
false charge of this railroad sheet, es-
tablished to lie about the News and OBJ
server and to stab the Democratic party
in the back We publish below a card
that appeared in yesterdays Post show
ing that the Post has misrepresented Mr..
Joyner and the News and Observer:
A CARD FROM MR.. JOINER.
Greensboro, N. c., Sept. 20, 1902.
The headlines in the Post of yester-
day morning over the article disclaiming
the preface to Mr.. Reynolds speech in
the News and Observer of Tuesday were
entirely foreign to anything in it, and the
editorial this morning in which my arti-
Gle is made the basis for a charge that
the News and Observer grossly distorts
news is equally unjust to me.
The headlines of the Post were as
fOllOWS. DOCJOr1ng news. CndTdcLeT-
istic of the News and Observer. Core
spondent Put in a False Position"
Whereas, the article nowhere intimates
such a thing. On the contrary, / es
pecially say II have no doubt some
other correspondent sent the first part
of the report of the convention printed
in the News and Observer for publica-
ton and that it. was attached to my
report of Mr.. Reynolds speech to save
space"
Again | say: 81 have no criticism
whatever to make of the Raleigh papers
report, except to say, if any one else
feels inclined to do so, they may not
make this correspondent responsible for
it."
The article was sent out to all my
papers as a portion of my regular cor
respondence and not as an independent
signed card as it is made to appear in
the Post It's appearance in that shape
in the Post along with the misleading
headlines, distorts an article of vindica-
ton of myself alone. into an appearance
of attack on the News and Observer,
which was foreign much to my ma
ture as to my intention.

Lenoir Topic)
The Democratic candidate for the
House, in opening the joint canvass in
Richlands last Friday, referred to the
we'll known fact that thousands OF the
best citizens of North Carolina were not
permitted to vote in 1863 while all the
negroes were marched to the ballot box.
In reply to this Mr.. Isbell, the Republican
candidate for the House. said that this
was because they were Confederate SOL
diers, who had forfeited not only their
right to vote. but their lives also. be-
cause they were guilty of treason and
perjury. He argued that they ought to
have been deprived of their vote, and
intimated that they were fortunate in
that they were not hung as traitors.
And this man Isbell was elected to the
Legislature by negro and other Radical
votes from the good county of Caldwell,
showing the true sentiment of Caldwell
Radicals.
In the face of these insults is there a
Confederate soldier, the son of one. or
any voter who honors their memory, who
will vote for Pritchard or help restore the
Republican party to power?

ticket, running against a Democrat 1

No purer man and no nobler man walks
the earth than Archibald Johnson who
presided over the Democratic conven-

presided over the Democratic convention.
The fact is Mr.. Johnson, while he is a
Baptist and a good one, is no preacher
at all. If he were a Baptist preacher

D. R. WILLIAMSON.
His Popularity and Record as Sheriff
 of Gila County.

D. R. Williamson, the republican nominee for the office Of sheriff in Graham county, is making an active, and what promises to be a successful canvass.
 Mr. Williamson accepted the nomin- ation with reluctance, as he had no desire to re-enter politics, but he found the pressure from leading re- ptrofTcStffS, fffCfutiftis ifIStffy rfic most influential citizens of Graham county and representatives of important in terests; too strong to withstand, and therefore, he entered the race, realiz- ing that in Jas. V. Parks, the present sheriff and nominee for reelection, he had a strong opponent.
 MT. Williamson served as sheriff of Gila county from January l, 1895, to December 3I, 1896, having been elected on the republican ticket in three cornered fight, his competitors for the office both being well-known men and considered strong candidates. Mr. Williamson won by reason of his per sonal popularity and reputation as straig and incorruptible cit izen, who could be depended upon to do his duty and conserve the interests of the taxpayers. That this confi- denco in his integrity was not mis- placed is fully sustained by the record he made for efficiency and economy as sheriff of this county.
 In the report on the condition of the county finances and the administra- tion of the various offices, made to the board of supervisors by A. H. More head, expert, April ?, 1898, and cover ing the years of Mr. Williamson's in cumbency, that portion of the report pertaining to the sheriff's office is com mandatory of Mr. Williamson's ad- ministration, which is shown to be notably good in regard to the collec- tion Of property, personal, poll and license taxes, and in the exact account ing made by Mir. Williamson Of mon- eys collected.
 Gila county has been fortunate in the character and efficiency of the men elected to fiji public offices, its record in this respect boinE seoond to none of all the counties in the terri tory. Mr. Morehead, in the report referred to above, recognizes the merit Of those county officers, whose books be exported and his complimentary allusi0ns in that report apply to Mir. | Williamson, as we'll as to others ! He said: Recognizing that a pub lie office is public honor, I am prompted to suggest the opinion that | the citizens ot the county will be pleased to know that they have not | misplaced confidence in promoting such men to office, and while this opinion will rest with the people. it is no less gratifying to the officers them selves to know that they have not misused that confidence by any dere- | fiction of duty"
 Among those who know D. R. Will liamson in Graham county he is as
 highly regarded as he is in this coun-
 ty, and if the voters Of Graham county honor him with their votes on the 4th of November next, we are confident l they will never have cause to regret it.
