HON. FRANCIS ID. WINSTON.
What Leading Democrats of His Home
County Say of Him.

To the Democrats of North Carolina:
The name of Hon. Francis d. Win
ston. of BERTHE county, will be pre-
scented to our State convention for the
nomination for Lieutenant Governor.
We have konwn him all his life, and
we feel that it is not out of place for
US. his neighbors and friends, to en-
dorse his candidacy. We do so with
out limitation. Judge Winston is we'll
known all over the State. Morally
mentally and physically he is fitted for
the office he seeks and for perform
ing the labors of the campaign Incl
dent to the election.
He is in his forty-seventh year. His
capacity for work is not surpassed by
any one. He is a well equipped par
limentarian, combining pleasant
manners with judicial firmness and
dignity. He has filled many places
of trust. For fifteen years he has
given freely of his brain, time and
means to the party. We will not
lengthen this address with copies of
resolutions endorsing his course as
Judge. We could do so at great
length. The press, the bar, and the
people were loud in his praise. No
Judge stood higher. His character is
strong and upright. He is a good
speaker and debater. He is popular
and agreeable.
Has he rendered most valuable par
ty services?
Ask the Democratic State. District
and county committees of every cam
paign for many years, and the white
Supremacy Clubs" and Democratic
Revolutionists of 1898 and 1900. In
point of party service no man has sur
passed him. He stands for the best
type of manhood and citizenship. We
ask your favorable consideration of his
candidacy.

king LIKKER" IN PRISON.
Price OF Fayetteville Residence Lots
Have More Than Doubled.

Especial to The News and Observer
Fayetteville, n. c., May 2.-The
city authorities yesterday arrested
one barrel and two boxes of whiskey
in the back of an old store not one
hundred yards from the City Hall
AS no claimant could be found, it was
transferred in state to the city guard
house, where it now reposes under
guard. This old building seldom has
an occupant, as our good old commu-
nifty is quiet one, but now more than
one old soak" is threatening with
malice prepense to break one or more
OF the city ordinances and "get into
good company" and it may be ne
cessary yet, as it is extremely dry
down here to call out the military to
keep some from forcibly breaking
into instead of out of the guard house.
An amusing incident connected with
the capture" was the lack of famili-
arity of the public officers with the
subject; one refused to even taste it,
while the others tested it most light
ly. We imagine that "Old King
Likker," now in his solitary abode, is
still winking the other eye and smil-
ing over somebody's ignorance.
Two lots on Haymount, of the few
now remaining. sold this morning for
$425.0O each. Several years ago these
lots were sold at from $3.50 to 5000
apiece. This desirable residence prop
erty is on the Hill and out of the
city limits, and is more valuable than
city lots in other sections of the place.
Greater Fayetteville, as now pro-
posed will bring in all this territory,
and give the city its real and true
population of about 5000 instead of
about 5000, as now shown by the
restricted city limits.

&" UNCLE" STEPHEN STUART.
A Picture of The Real Southern Lie
OF We Olden Times.

To the Editor: After ninety years
Of faithful living, Stephen Stuart, col
ored, has laid down the burden, ana
was today buried in the cemetery near
Laurinburg, n. c., where he resided.
For forty years Stephen has been
known by all who knew LauTlnDurg
we'll. For about thirty years he was
the faithful servant of DR.. Robert ~.
Dickson At one time or other, al
most every care and responsibility OF
the doctors farm and home premises
was thrown upon Stephen,-"Uncle
Stephen" When the good old doctor
fell on sleep about ten years ago.
stephen was old, and though able to
work, was not robust. A nephew OF
the doctor, Robert Dickson Cronly, by
name, then of Wilmington, now OF
Baltimore, took up the support OF
stephen, and every week uncle
Stephen" went to the store while he
was able, and since then he has sent
to the store for his groceries aud sup
plies, and the young boss paid the
bills.
Yesterday when his death was re-
ported Mr.. Cronly's attorney here
wired him that Stephen was dead.
Promptly came the message: Bury
Uncle Stephen l will pay all eX-
penses." So "Uncle stephen" goes
to his grave in q handsome cloth
covered casket, and the young boss
sits in his office and today is boy
again, RELYING the days when he rode
upon "Uncle Stephens back; when
Uncle Stephen baited the hook as
only a darkey of the old school cam
and when the two pursued the fleeing
hare with an enthusiasm worthy of
more lordly game. There will be a
sigh and a tear mayhap, and the Of
flee force will wonder what is the mat
ter with the secretary to the president
of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
why he seems older today,-why his
step is less elastic,
An old colored man is dead. But
what of that? Only an old colored
man, faithful and true. honest and
honorable, who knew his duty and
did it we'll" Almost the last of his
kind-the last of the highest and
best product of slavery. The last, al
most of the old colored uncle" whom
the South still loves, and cherishes,-
and supports. Across his bier lay the
flowers given by the friend of the
young boss, and leave him with ma
ture, his soul with God.
