WITNESS AGAINST
FISCHER HANSEN
Loses MEMORY
But De Verona Is Certain He
Got Part of Money Paid
MacaluSo.

The deferred cross-examination or
Joseph De Verona, the law clerk. was
taken up this morning when the trial
OF Carl Fischer-Hansen on the charge
OF bribery of witness was resumed in
the Criminal Branch OF the Supreme
Court before Justice Bowling.
De Verona was employed In the Of
fee OF the defendant lawyer and took
considerable part In the negotiations
through which the alleged attempt to
bride Anthony Macaluso, whose testi-
mony. 1t is alleged was changed by
monetary inducement given by Fischer
Hansen when he was placed on trial
charged with extortion of money from
Joseph O'Brien and several others. In
that trial the boy appeared as the
principal witness for the State. but
his testimony on the stand differed
widely from the statements he made
to the Grand Jury.
In the subsequent investigations TO
account FOR this sudden change District
Attorney jerome obtained from De
Verona confession OF the latter's part
in the transactions between Fischer
Hansen and Macaluso. Wien he was
| examined last week De Verona made
some damaging allegations against his

Different towns and cities
through the State are now, or soon
will be, making efforts to secure
the location of the j.. 0. U. A.
M, orphanage practically decided
upon at the last State Council
meeting of the Order. The oppor-
tunity for Salisbury to secure this
orphanage is equal to that of any
other community and the obllga-
ton to do so is just as great. Such
opportunities and obligations have
presented themselves to Salisbury
on a number of occasions in the
past, and have as often been waved
aside. Now isn't it possible, with
the revival of the spirit of pro-
gress and improvement, for the
city tomake a real honest effort to
secure this addition to its institu-
tions? Almost every city of any
size, nowadays, has on orphan
age. This Institution would be
undenominational and all creeds,
parties and ~fraternal societies
could unite to secure and main
tain it in our midst. Will we do
it, or shall it pass like similar
opportunities have in the past?

It is certainly tiresome tc hear
so much about why the solid
South should be broken, especial
" when We look around and note
the great and increasing prosperi-
ty Of the section under Democrat.
ic 1ule, her freedom from panics
public graft and labor agitations,
in fact there is every reason why
the South should remain both SOL
i'd and Democratic. We consider
it all insult for the president to
offer us a few little public offices
for 6 change of politics. Why is
he not solicitous about the New
England states that have been
voting the Republican ticket SOL
idly ever since before the war?
Why is it more detrimental to the
South, in the face of her great in.
dustrial achievements, under
Democratic rule, to vote the Dem.
ocratic ticket solidly, than it is
for cur northern brothers to vote
solidly the Republican ticket in
the face of taat sections panics,
strikes, grating and industrial
depression? The South has cause
for rejoicing in that she has es-
capped much that IS depressing to
business and degrading in her po-
litical and social life, and being as
it is the only section where the
Democracy has had anything like
a half show although almost COLI
tinually handicapped by the ma
tional government in the hands
of the Republican party. Let the
South demand that the North
first show good faith in the mat
ter of breaking away from her
ideals and then she will still do
as she pleases in the matter. The
folio wing states have voted the
Republican ticket solidly in presi-

Bigq's Seven-ear Prolific Corn!
Over 100 Bushels per Acre.
SEED @

Bigg's Seventeen Prolific Corn is one of the wonders in the agri-
cultural world to-day. Last year the undersigned planted 20 acres
in this variety and secured u wonderful result. In looking over
the field not a single stalk was found that bore less than three
ears, and many were found that had four, five, SIX, eight and ten.
The 20 acres produced just 2, 40 bushels of good, hard corn, max
ing an average of 1O7 bushels to the acre. This is claimed to be
the largest yield ever heard of in this section of the State. The
seed for this planting was bought of l.. A. Carr, Durham, N. c.,
who produced an average of 1881 bushels per acre.
When the Farmers Institute was held in Salisbury last August
and a car load of machinery was used in demonstration work on
land adjoining the above, Mr.. Meacbam, superintendent of the
States test farm in lredell county, stated to those present: Sam
Carter, Joe Hall, Rev J. M L. Lyerly aud others, that he had not
seen any better corn IN the State.
Col J. S. Cunningham, of Cunningham, N. c., a member of
the State Board of Agriculture. and one of the best farmers in the
State, came to Salisbury last S=ptember, and, after seeing this
field, stated that he had never seen better cort, and that it was
we'll worth one cent per grain. He sold several ears of it, at the
railroad station in Salisbury, at 81 90 per ear.
The above is given to show the extra high quality and value of
this variety Of corn and this lot in particular. 1t is the very best,
most prolific and most profitable corn that can be raised anywhere.
A quantity of this corn has been set aside for seed and is offered
to progressive farmers for only 75c a peck, ST. SO per half bushel
and 50 SO per bushel, F. O. B. Salisbury. Money! order or check
