The Journal
is Not Guilty.

In other columns will be found a
story from the Jacksonville Metrop-
oils, giving an account of DIR. John
Gorrie's wonderful discovery of the
manufacture of ice. which is said to
be in answer to the following hippant
paragraph. which is credited to The
Journal:
Florida papers are mentioning DIR.
John Gorrie as candidate for the
hall OF fame Now, who in thunder is
the gentleman"
The Journal is not guilty of this
blatant exhibition of ignorance. 1t
knows well the life history of DR..
Gorrie. and in the past has devoted
many columns to an endeavor to make
known the claim DIR. Gorrie's admir-
ers have TO place his statue in the
national hall of fame.
No Floridian in the past has done so
much for mankind as this inventor
of method of chemically manufacture
ing Ice.
There is not a person in West Flor
ida. and few in the entire state that
do not know of DIR. Gorrie, and the
Journal desires to emphaticany deny
the origin of the paragraph quoted.
Aside from the show of ignorance on
the part of the writer. The Journal
reveres too highly the memory of the
West Floridian, who gave to mankind
one of its greatest boons.

\ "The nomination of w. w. Kitchin
for Governor was in utter defence to

THAT FRIED CHICKEN INCIDENT

upon Mr.. Bryan and after receiving
hearty welcome we're served .

this. too. while the editor OF The News

A correspondent of the Union Re

makes some interesting observations
and propounds some questions TO
the News and Observer The portion
Of the article referred 10 Is as fol-
lows:
This tells Us that when Josephus
arrived he found Bryan's yard full
OF negroes all eating fried chicken.
Now Brother Daniels had so much 10
say about the Booker Washington
incident and so little to say about
Fred Douglass at cleveIand's recep-
ton and SO many Democrats said
that Republicans did not tell the
truth about these matters that ! am
going 10 ask Brother Daniels to Just
tell US exactly how this business OF
Bryan's serving fried chicken TO
these colored gentlemen was.
To facilitate Brother Daniels an
swer / will ask him a few questions
that he can answer, or not, as he
thinks best.
The first Is: Did you find these
colored gentlemen in Bryan's yard as
the press says?
Were they being dined by Mr.. Bry-
an as the press says?
; Did you eat with them, Josephus
or did they make you wait until
these colored gentlemen were
through and then eat at the second
table?
Did Mr.. Bryan help serve this
meal and did he have on a white
apron or dress suit as walters usu-
ally wear on such occasions?
How many of these colored gentle
men were you introduced to Brother
Daniels and what did you say tC
them about how glad you were tc
find them in the Democratic party?
Just tell us all about it Brother

Which Is the Negro Party?

Mr.. M. A. Poovey was in Monday.
He says politics are funny. DEM
ocrats ceceded from the Union, then
fought for the negro. Then when
they could not vote the negro they
disfranchised them. Then because
the negroes voted with the Republi-
cans, they called them the negro
party. Now in order to win, the
Democrats are trying to vote the
negro. So if they take their own
medicine, then they are either the
negro party, or they lied when they
said the Republicans were the negro
party Mercury.

Give Your Lamps Attention.

They will serve you better for a

that horrible oily odor. 1t must be
cleaned frequently. filed every day,
and wiped off thoroughly after each
filling. II lamp smells persistent
ly, unless Ii leaks or is otherwise
distinctly out of repair, 1t means that
the parts need boiling. To do this,
take the lamp to pieces as much as
possible, put the parts in big ket-
tie and cover with cold water; add
handful of washing soda and bring
to a boil Then remove the parts,
dry thoroughly, adjust and trim the
wick and fill Nine times out of ten

quires. Most lamps take we'll to this

Badger in Raleigh Saturday on the
charge of stealing two cows from

The men had offered the cows for

picious OF account. Of the evasive

rested the men. He finally found
that two cows were missed at Neuse,

were unable to give, and are now
