Will See Them Dead, Damned,
and i'm Helr'-Bitter Fight.
The fight between the two factions
of the Democrats of Wake County
has assumed bitter aspect, and it is
now war to the end between them.
The straight" Democrats" who
nominated a ticket composed of reg
ular Democrats to oppose the ticket
William Bailey, commonly termed
the "Jo-Jo" ticket, and which the
"straights" say is mongre1 ticket,
in other words, composed, in part,
of Republicans,-are issuing litera-
ture by the thousands.
One circular, in the form of an af-
fidavit, ellis how Mr.. ]. William
Bailey, made a tenant leave a
house he had been renting and pay
ing promptly for, on the grounds
that he was a working man, and as
such, unfit to live in the same select
neighborhood with Mr.. Bailey. The
action of Mr.. Bailey has aroused con-
siderable feeling among the labor
unions, as Mr.. Koonce, the gentle
man in question, is an engineer on
the Seaboard and is well known in
labor circles. He is a man of high
character and his comrades deeply
resent the reflections cast, not only
on Mr.. Koonce, but on working men
in general.
Another circular, which is given
in full here below, is somewhat sur
prising, in view of the fact that Mr..
Bailey has been regarding as one OF
the ledaing laymen in the Baptist
church and often makes speeches
along moral uplift grounds. He was
for some years, editor of the Bibli-
cal Recorder, the official organ OF
the Baptist church, and as such, en-
gagged ia a bitter newspaper discus
sion with his present ally, Mr.. Jose.
phus Daniels, whom he denounced In
no uncertain language. The p1ight

BELLIES OF BLACKVILLE GIVE EN-

When it comes to a minstrel show
the imitation proves far superior to the
real article. This was ably demonstra-
ted last Friday evening when the
'Belles of Blackville," number of
young people of town, held the undiv-
ided attention of large audience at
the Soperton hall.
Every number on the program was
very ably rendered, showing that con-
siderable time had been expendee by
eachindividual member. Between each
number some very spicy jokes were
sprung on many of our local towns
people and one did not need to look very
sharp to see who was the recipient of
the joke either.
On Saturday evening. the Bay Shore
Company donated the use of their en-
gine and the troupe went. to Camp 7,
where they showed to $68.00 crowd
The entertainment was given for the
benefit of the SOperton Band and the
sum netted will be a great boost to
that organization.
They will give the entertainment at
Lawrence's opera house Friday April
22, for the benefit of the school.
