: i . M I i THE COUNTY UNION. DUNN, Harnett County, N. C. Entered accoiding to postal regula tions at the postoffice at Dunn, N. C, as second class matter. J. P. PlTTMAN, Proprietor, A. M. Woodall, Editor. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. , ThroP Months ..- .....25 Cents Six ilanths..... One Year .SO.Cenjts. $1.00. Sent by Mail, payable in advance. Dunn, N. C, April 21, '897. The poll tax for the State this year will be one dollar and thir ty-eight cents notwithstanding that the legislature made it $1.26. 'and the property" tax 4G r - - 7 x a. cents. The legislature did no observe the constitutional equa tion between poll and property and the Governor brought suit against the Auditor to compe him to observe the proper equa tion. The courts held with the Governor and 'the auditor wil charge $1.38. - ' When the government of the State of North Carolina is run bv iackasses and negroes, our safetv as peaceful and law-abid ing citizens will be at an end Let the next political fiirht be J. . C J1 fought on tlie color line. Let the white man who takes his stand with the negroes forever be branded, as an enemy to the freedom, liberty and virtue that our State has so long en joyed-' To hell with railroac 4 . 1 leasas, when the mothers anc beautiful daughters of our State are threatened. Give us white supremacy or. give us death, 1 ii e hood in tlie Mississippi river does not abate' and mucl anxiety is felt by the citizens o the low country along the river as to the strength of the levees There is now many thousand acres of farm land under water and the inhabitants are fleeing to places of safety. . The guards along the levees are kept .'busy to keep people from cutting theni so that the water will go out on the side of the river op posite them. The appropria tion made by Congress for the sufferers will not be near suffi ' i 1 ,1 it rm 1 cient unless the noocl soon .abates. Judge Adams rendered his decision in the Insane Asylum ; cases Friday in favor" of j the old superintendents' and the old bnri.r1 f( 11 rfr fTc TTr linlls that the act passed by the re cent legislature empowering Governor Ilussell to appoint full board of directors for these institutions to be void and that the Governor had power only to nil the places of the directors whose term of office had expired The case will now go to the Su preme Court : for a final deci sion. The Rep-Pop crowd will fail to get vsome pie which they wanted mighty, bad and thought sure they had it safe but one of their own judges is them . against The board of county commis signers, of Gittes county is com posed of one Republican, one Jopulist and a Democrat. Re , cently they held a meeting tc draw jurors and the majority members the Republican and 1 opulist called on a negro pol luciau to suy ii the names as drawn from the box were suita 11 k , f : mi wit- jiiuu ior jurors, lhey se lected the men he said were .suitable and when they got the number 14 of them were negroVs having set aside the names of the best white men in the coun ty because the negro said so. Think of this white men and don't let it escape your eye un til the next election. Jut think of a board of commissioners ask ing a negro politician to say ' who shall serve on the jury ! The Republicans of Ohio are somewhat enraged with Con gressman Shattuc from that State for appointing a young negro man to a scholarship in the naval academy at Annapo lis. Shattuc insists on the ap pointment of the negro while the examining board says he failed to pass the examination. It is said that he passed the ex amination and the board re fused to give him a certificate because he was a negro. If the negro gets the appointment and enters, the academy he will probably regret it for the boys there will not hardly keep com pany with him. -And you can plainly see that the Republi cans in Ohio do not favor giving the negro any more advantages than the Southern Democrats; And probably not so much. j SHALL THESE THINGS CON- 1 rVTKTTITIO j. in u Jit ; When we look at the way things are going on in the good Old North State it makes us shudder and the second thought makes our blood boil as it should every man who has pure Anglo-Saxon blood in his veins. And why so? Has the time come when the white men of our State shall allow the ne groes to take the places filled by them in the government of the State? Has the time come when the once servants shall take the place of masters and rule in their stead? We know it has not, but the tendency of the Republican and Populist admin istration is leading that way : The Republicans and Pop ulists gained control of the State by the negro vote. Both of these parties were jledged to brinsr about a reform and 'for the past few months we have seen that reform ( ?) going on White men, who fought for the ricrhts of the South in the late war and came back maimed and crippled for life, have been turned aside to give buck ne groes an office. Jim Young, a negro politician, has been given a $1,000 job and white men ap pointed to work under him at a less salary. The -white guardsH at the penitentiaiy farms have been discharged and negro guards put in their . places Swinson, a Populist enrolling clerk, was thrown out of bffice because he would not appoin two negroes in his office at i salary of $5 per day, and Popu lists helped to do it too ! Is this the reform that the Populist party wanted? 'AVe expected nothing else from the itepubiican party tor it is pledged to recognize the negro tor the negro is the great ma jority of that party in the South T , 11,. - . .1. is it possible that the negro is more capable to attend to the duties of an office than white men? Where is the white man who would like to work under a negro boss r It he is a true Southerner he is not found in North Carolina. , Just here we will say that we have the kindest of feelings for the negroes and that we are .t ways glad to see them trying to advance themselves and become better citizens, and that we are their friend but never so long as we live shall we cast a vote or i i . . neip in anvway to give one an office other than to manage af fairs that pertain to their race If the wish to come up in the world and be better citizens we shall not throw any obstacle in their path but will try to help them but when one wants to hold an foffice then we shall al ways be against him. They must remember that the white people have the intelligence and the wealth and pa the burdens of taxation and must and will rule. The crowd that is in now and is giving them offices will have a day of recoiling and the negro will be deposed from of fice, not by his enemies but by his friends, for the white peo ple of the South are the best friends of the negro. '-and the Democratic Jmrty has done far more for them than the Repub lican party. Ihen let every man who wants to see white men get the benefit, of the taxes they pay buckle on the armour of white supremacy and go fourth to bat tie and continue the fight until the next election and at sunset uii umi uay ine voices ot our people will go up in one great Shout that North Carolina has been saved from negro domina tion and negro rule. Senator Marion Butler in roduced in the Senate Monday a bill authorizing the United States to take possession of the Union and Pacific railroad and operate it. His bill recites the fact that a failure of the com panies to meet the obligations and operate the roads is a for feiture of all the property rights and franchises and .the United States has the power to take charge and operate them. This road runs from Kansas Citv to San Francisco. The Senator probably thinks thisis one step toward the government owning and operating the railroads of the country which his n.irtv datform advocates. No small objection which young oiks had to the old-time flpring medi- ines was their oameoasness. In our day, this objection is removed and Ayer's Sarf apariila, the meat power ed and popular of bicod-purifiers, is as pleasant to the pa?a'e a? a cordial. Purgatorial Fills. The druggist would hardly smile if you asked for "purga torial) pills." There are many of them. But he yould prob ably recommend a pill that did not gripe ; a sugar-coated pill, gentle in action, and sure in effect. What are they called ? ..Ayer's Cathartic Pills.. J3 There is a good deal of anx iety among the leading Repub licans of the State as to who the President will appoint as Judge of the Eastern District. It is generally thought that T. R. Purnell of Raleigh or James Boyd of Greensboro; will get the appointment with chances in favor of Purnell. It is thought that the appointment will be made in a few days.

The honors and attentions showered upon General Grant during his tour of the world are, perhaps, unequaled in the his tory of kingly hospitality. He was received evervwhere as the greatest soldier of his time anc as the foremost living Amen can. Hon. John Russel Young, who accompanied Gen eral Grant throughout the fa mous journey, graphically re calls, in the May Ladies' Home Journal, its conspicuous inci dents : the receptions, dinners, fetes, balls, etc., given in hon or of the illustrious American It is said that Mr. Young brings to light a fact that has received but passing attention : that General Grant was instrument al in arranging the terms of treaty of peace between China and Japan, which prevented an outbreak of w.ar betweeai those nations. The two-vear-old eon ,of W. L. Fur gasoD, of Bolton, Miss.', had whooping cough. "After several physcians bad prescribed for hjm, without giving re net, writes Mr. Jburgasou, "l per suaded my wife to try a 25 cent bot tle of Chamberlain's Cough; Remedy the first doe hai the desired eflFect, and in forty-eight hours he was entire 1 . free from all cough.

The negroes of this State will probably get a good portion of the federal patronage under the present administration. Ex Congressman Cheatham will possibly receive the appoint ment of Recorder , of Deeds for the District of Columbia,' a place now held by a negro, and John C.
