HERE'S AHOWDYDO!
No Democrats Need Ap-
ply for Instructions.
Mr.. Johnson of Harnett Says Postmas-
ter Bailey Only Gives Information
as to Securing New Post Offices
to Republicans Voters.

Some foolish citizens imagine that
non-partisan advisers as to postoffice
affairs, even if the rules and regula-
tons don't require this.
But from the report brought to Raj
eigh by a well known citizen OF Har-
nett, vouched for as being an A No
man this is not the case in the Raleig|
postOf1ice.
This citizen. while in Raleigh yes
terday, narrated an occurrence in
which he was concerned with Post
master Bailey, of Raleigh, in which
he states that as he could not tell the
Raleigh postmaster that he was Re
publican he could get no information
as to how to proceed to have new
postoffice established.
And here is the account of it, as
given by Mr.. w. r. Johnson, of Challi
Level, who is seeking to have a new
postoffice established at RaWls Sta
ton, on the Raleigh and Cape Fear,
otherwise known as Mills road.
Mr.. Johnson has lately purchased
some twenty-five acres of land at
Rawls, while relatives of his, Messrs.
l.. S. Mann and E. b. johnson, have
also made purchases. 1t is their pur-
pose to develop the place, which is
four miles beyond Fuquay, between
that place and Chalybeate. Having
the promise of Mr.. Mills to establish
a depot there, and on his suggestion
determining to seek a postofflce also,
Mr.. Johnson came to Raleigh about
a month ago. Seeking Mr. Mills for
advice as to how to proceed he was
told as Mr.. Mills attorney was out
of the city, to see Postmaster Bailey.
Mr.. Johnson states that he called at
the Raleigh postoffice and after wait
ing that Mr.. Bailey came in that he
went to Mr.. Bailey and sought his ad-
vice as to the steps to take to make APP
plication to have new postothce es-
tablished:

lcan ticket" he says Mr.. Bailey
asked him.

.Well, then" said Mr.. Bailey &C
cording to Mr. Johnson, there is
nothing in here that L can do fol

And then, after some reference to
Mr.. Mills by the postmaster the inter-
view ended.
Mr.. Johnson is indignant at the
treatment ana said. SO yesterday While
here with Hon. II. l.. Goodwin, OF Dunn,
Democratic candidate for Elector. he
was anxious as to what proceedings
to take a get a postoffice at RaWls;
he had built a public road from
Chalk Level to the place; he thought
postmaster could and would
give him the information he
sought, and did not think that being
a Democrats he would be turned down,
when seeking information, even if he
did tell a Republican postmaster that
he was not going to vote the Republi-
can ticket.

Mass of Supposed Common Metal

and fortunate discovery recently made
by DIR. Paul Barringer. of the Univer-
sty of Virginia, noted in recent issue
of the Alumni Bulletin of the Univer-
sty.

Judge Victor Barringer of Charlotte.
DIR. Barringer purchased an odd-look-
ing curio in the shape of mass of
molten metal which Judge Barringer
had acquired during his residence at
Alexandria, Egypt, where he lived foi
years as American consul and as
member of the Court of international
Law. During his stay in Egypt Judge
Barringer purchased for a small sum
and as a curiosity an oddly shaped
and heavy mass of metal which was
supposed to be a lot of 'bakshesh -
the common copper coin of the coun-
try-which had been fused into a
solid lump by some fire it nag gone
through. For years the curio 'enaln-

after his death by DR.. Paul Barringer

has since remained.
