BOGUS T|CKETSOUT
Some With More Zeal
Than Principle Playing
Dangerous Game.

A considerable stir was created
among those interested in county poll
ties yesterday by the discovery that &
number of tickets for County Commits
sioners We're in circulation which bear
the names of certain candidates with
their initials incorrectly given.
Said Colonel j. Il. Adams, of Holly
Springs, he who commanded at one
time the famous 26th n. G. Regiment
of the Confederate Army, yesterday;
''There are circulating in the coun-
ty, tickets for County Commissioners
printed thus; julius Lewis, }. !. ed
wards, S w. Terrell, +. W. Utey
Bryant Smith. changing w. f. ttley 5
initials. | handed the ticket TO q
strong friend of Mr.. julius Lewis, anH
his Warmest supporter, and asked nm
why il was that the change III Dtley :
name was made. He said IT was (
d-n fraud and was done to cut Utie5
out of votes. He handed me another
ticket, stating that was their t-ckel
ON it were the same names and VIII
Utley'S name correct, but with }. /
Edwards name changed to I. }. Ed-
wards. [ asked him why that was
he said he didn't know, but that thai
was the way they were handed to him.
Now / would like to know who handed
them to him."
The matter is really a serious one.
tickets have been discovered in the
last few days on which the names OF
Messrs Adams, Utley, Broughton,
Terrell and Edwards are printed with
changed initials.
The names of these gentlemen, who
compose one ticket, are placed on
separate tickets and in tickets bearing
The names of other candidates, but
with wrong initials. For instance, one
ticket has Utey's initials as f. W.,
whereas they should be w. t.; anoth-
er has Terrell's initials as w. s.,
whereas they should be s. w; another
has Edwards initials as 7. j., another
as G.. r., whereas they should be j. T.,
and so on.
That these false tickets are in circu-
lation is a fact of which this writer
has had ocular demonstration fur
nished him. There may be others.
While the character of the several
candidates for the board precludcs the
idea that they have encouraged the at
tempted fraud, it is plain to see that
the friends of some of them have more
zeal than principle The thought OF
such rascality being attempted is not
| a pleasant one and it would be well
for candidates who are intended to be
benefited by such practices to make
every effort in the next few days &c
stop the circulation of the bogus tick
| cts.
Many n man has had cause to pray
| for deliverance from his fool friends

IN Able end Brilliant Campaigner--
He VIII do the Party Great Service.

The Democratic executive committee
have made quite list of appointments
which appear elsewhere in this paper,
for Mr. r. N. Hackett, of Wilkesboro.
Mr.. Hackett is undoubtedly a can
vasser of great power. His speeches
in the western part Of the State in the
last campaign were pronounced by all
who heard them as among the best
made in that campaign, and speeches
recently made by him in his canvass
for the nomination in the Eighth d s.
trict are characterized as brilliant.
Mr.. Hackett will canvass the State
this year, and it is believed by his
friends that he will make a great rep
utation for himself, and at the same
time render valuable aid to the Dem
ocratic party.

mediator with the faculty, Treasurer
b. r. Lacy invited sunni of the SEN

and talked with him for quite I.
while, but to no purpose, Both Gov

40 measures to punish the offenders
Ii is stated that. in this instance, tn,
faculty feels that the students Wert
encouraged by the former act of len

It's obligation to stand by them, anG
that such action would be a valid
