Put On the " heel.

Mr.. Samuel V. Smiley, of Johnston
county, who was here yesterday, had
most interesting experience to narrate. He
was in front of the Museum yesterday at
ternoon, when one of the heavy wheels OF
his big wagon ran off, and State Treasurer
Lacy caught the wheel and aided to put it
back in place. Mr.. Smiley says that new
md brighter era would soon drop from the
clouds, and his argument for this was that
a Democratic State Treasurer would help
get an old Johnston county Republican
farmer and politician out of trouble and
on his wheels once again.
