ESMr C P Bnroett, of Clear Creek
township, brings us;a genuine curiosity
in the way of a sweet potato, which is
coiled up in the exact image of a snake.
Its shape is remarkably like that of a
serpent, and on the whole it is about as
good a representation of a snake as
could be expected of a potato.
HgYesterday afternoon a number
of ladies met at the Hook and Ladder
hall to take action in regard to the
coming firemen's fair. They arranged
the programme for the three nights of
the fair and assigned details for the
various stands. They are manifesting
a commendable interest in the fair and
it is bound to be a big success.
Spun-glass napkins are a recent
addition to the supply of luxuries which
people who indulge a taste for oddities
will probably not consider too high
priced at 81,000 per dozen. The filling
cons'sts of minutest glass threads cros
sed by a silk chain, and the fringe of
glass fibre is about two inches long. We
do not know how large a supply the
Charlotte hotels have ordered.
"Yesterday morning's session of
the city court resulted in a profit of $20
for the city treasury. The three drunks
arrested at Wads worth's stable Messrs
Lee Ray, D J Pharr and Alfred John

colored, for firing off his pistol in Car
son's lot, was fined $5 for his little bit
of fun.
Jt-The day trains Nos. 52 and 53, on
the Air-Line road, have made their last
trips, the order to take them off
having been received and put into ef

that these trains will be put back on
again shortly. Their game of bluff to
make the government pay them more
than $160,000 for the trains will very
likely be successful.
tF"Novfimber, the eleventh month
of our year, is from the Latin novem,
nine, and was the ninth of the Romans
when the'r calendar was first founded.
It was one of the ten months of Rom
ulus and consisted originally of thirty
days, which number was afterward
changed to twenty-nine probably by
the Decemvirs. Julius Cffi3ar again
made it thirty days, and it has so re
mained. Having teen troubled with a very bad cough for
about two years and having tried almost every
cough mixture that was ever made, I have founa
none that has given me such great relief as Dr.
Bull's cough syrup and I earnestly recommend it
all afflicted. BENJ. If. DUGdAN.

"My back aches so, and I feel miserable," said
a hard working man. The doctor questioned him
and found that he had been Jcabltuallr costive for
years, that now his kidneys were disordered and
n Is whole system deranged. Kidney-Wort was re
commended and faithfully taken and In a short
time every trouble was removed. The cleansing
and tonic power of this medicine on the bowels
and kidneys Is wonderful. Evangelist.

A GLANCE AT THE FIELD.
Encouraging Political Outlook Dr.
Mott's Failure Democratic Victory
Assured.
Inn main battles ot Uie campaign
have been fought. The heat and strife
of a bitter and determined political
cor.'cst arc over, and to-day quiet and
peace reign in the air, and it id an ap
propriatc time to take a glance at the
Held andsie what the real situation
maybe. There is no denying the fact
that from the outset the Democratic
party has had heavy odds to fight
against. The ingenious brain of Dr J
J Mott, a cunning and bold political
manipulator, set to work and got up a
scheme that one time, by reason of its
most plausible pretenses and cleverly
concealed fraud, came well nigh prov
iug successful.' But the people are not
easily fooled. When they began to
revolve the question in their minds as
to who is this man Mott, what has been
his record in the past, and what is his
object in tryiDg to get up this so-called
Liberal movement, it set them to think
ing and they were not long in coming
to the conclusion that there was some
thing "rotten iu Denmark." It required
but a second look to show, them that it
was all a clumsy trick to entrap unsus
pecting Democrats into voting to sus
tain the old Republican party and to
keep it in power. Dr. Mott's pro
gramme was skilfully prepared, and it
was. it must be admitted, a most for
midable one. It was constructed with
the special object of -capturing recruits
from the Democratic ranks and at the
same time to retain all of the old Re
publican voters. If this end could be
accomplished, it was easy to see that
the Republican party would be in a fair
way to gain a triumphant victory next
Tuesday. But the "best laid plans of
mice and men gang aft aglee," and so it
was with Dr. Mott's programme.
Scarcely had he begun operations be
fore the people saw the true inward
ness of his scheme, and instead of rally
ing to his banners, hundreds of what
might be called lukewarm and indiffer
ent Democrats, were driven back into
the old Democratic ranks. None save
a handful of office seekers clung to Dr.
Mott and they are doomed to go down
in defeat with him next Tuesday. It
was not long before Dr. Mott saw that
his second calculation went wide of the
mark. His plan of taking in disap
pointed Democratic office seekers,
would not lie well on the R publican
stomach, and rather than swallow it
hundreds of them have declared their
intention to either stay at home and
not vote at all, or if they vote to put in
a good Democratic ticket. So it turns
out that while Dr. Mott has failed to
entice any Democrats, he has at the
same time driven numbers of voters
out of his own ranks and actually made
the chances for Republican success
weaker than they would have been had
the fight been made on the old issues
between the two old parties Truly Dr.
Mott has made a woeful failure, but the
Democrats should look upon him kindly
all the same, as it is entirely owing to
his manipulation of the campaign that
success has been made easy for our
party.
The prospects around us are bright.
All the indications now point
to the fact that in our own
county of Mecklenburg the regu
lar Democratic ticket will be elect
ed by majorities ranging from 200 to
500. Not a single Republican will
get in.
Reports from the neighboring coun
ties are most cheering. The campaign
in Catawba closed yesterday at New
ton, where Major Dowd and Col. W. L
Steele addressed the people. We have
word from Catawba that the Demo
cratic ticket will receive over 1,500 ma
jority in that county. Cabarrus will
give the Democratic nominees hand
some majorities; so will Union," while
Cleaveland will come in with a majori
ty of over 1,200. The Democrats claim
that they will gain Richmond county
this election. The outlook, on the whole,
is brilliant. It only remains for every
Democrat to turn out and do his duty
and a glorious victory is ours.
A Big Fight in Rockingham Between
Citizens and a Gang of H egroes.
News was received in the city last
evening to the effect that about 3 o'clock
yesterday afternoon a considerable riot
between whites and blacks, occurred in
Rockingham. From what we could
learn it appears that a revenue officer,
or a government employee, named F.
S. Spears, came into the town with a
squad of a hundred or more negroes
and took them before the registrar to
have their names registered. The reg
istrar refused to take their names, for
the reason that they were not residents
of that township. Spears insisted up
on having the names of his party regis
tered, and the registrar as firmly refus
ed to comply with the demand.
The result was a big fight,
in which Spears and several
negroes were badly used up.
The fight appeared to have been a reg
ular knock down and drag out affairf
and if any fire arms were used our in
formant did not know of it. The reg
istrar, of course, did not fight the crowd
alone, but was backed by a crowd of
friends. No one was seriously hurt in
the fight, and all the participants were
arrested and put under bond for trial
by the courts.
The Wadcsboro Fair.
A very large crowd from Charlotte
will leave next Tuesdav night for
Wadesboro, to attend the Dixie Fair, to
be held on the 8th, 9th and 10th, and
which promises to be a greater success
this week than ever. Gen. Dargan, the
"old war horse" of the Pee Dee section
will deliver the annual address at the
Dixie Fair. It is not necessary for us
to say, for our readers know full well,
that he has a wider range of informa
tion concerning the agricultural indus
tries of this section during the past fif
ty years than any man now living.
Hon. R. T. Bennett, Anson's worthy
and distinguished son has been invited
to deliver an address during the Fair
and this announcement alone will be
sufficient to draw a large crowd. On
Thursday the business men of Wades
boro will close their places of business
and attend the Fair. The railroads in
this section will issue tickets to Wades
boro, during the Fair at half rates. The
Intelligencer says that McSmitb the
live music man of Charlotte, will give
away five hundred presents each day of
the Fair.
The druggist who hesitates now Is lost for the
winter. He should sling together some sweet oU
and liquorice and bring out Ms i cough cure at once.
Dr. Bull's cough syrup does not pay mm enough
profit.
Tb e ItHce lor Townbip Constable.
Tuk Obsekver has ad vim 1 he af
port of the regular nomintts of the
Democratic party for all the offices to
be filled next Tuesday, but in the mAi
ter of township constable no one has
been nominated and voters will be un
trammelled by the edicts of any conven
tion. Mr. John M. George, i3 H candi
date for one of the positions to be filled
Without prejudice to any of the other
candidates we desire to say that Mr.
George is a capable and industrious
printer, who has worked in The Ob
server establishment continuously for
nearly ten years. Entertaining the
opinion we do of him we would be
glad to see him elected.
Mr. Arthur Butt and his Paintings.
About the first of next week Mr A
Butt will start out on a tour of
the
States with his paintings, "Revel
and "Bible Stories." Heat first thought
of going towards Washington City,
commencing at Concord and taking In
all the towns along the line, but he has
lately received so many letters from the
towns around Charlotte asking him to
give them an early exhibition of his
paintings, that he has concluded to visit
the neighboring towns first and then
strike out from home. He will proba
bly go to South Carolina and then com
back to this State and exhibit his paint
ings at Davidson College, Concord, Mon
roe and adjoining towns before start
ing North.
About Ginning Cotton.
Much complaint is again made by
cotton buyers in some localities of
what is called gin cut cotton. Cotton
ginned in this way not only depreciates
it in the market, but its tendency is to
injure the market where it is sold. It
is ascribed to two causes, one.being fast
ginning, the other by ginning when the
cotton is damp. It would be infinitely
better for the farmers to have half the
number of bales ginned daily and pay
a larger toll than double the quantity
at a smaller charge and have their cot
ton cut and napped by too rapid gin
ning, besides running the certain risk
of selling it at a reduced rate per pound.
Cotton Thieves Arrested.
Yesterday morning two colored men
named Chas. Kerns and Israel Walker,
were brought to town and committed
to jail on charge of stealing cotton
from Mr. Dave Alexander, in Mallard
Creek township. Mr. Alexander had
been missing his cotton for some time
and his suspicions finally centered upon
these two negroes, who were watched
and caught in the act, having 800
pounds of cotton on their wagon at the
time of their arrest. They were tried
before Esquire J. P. Tomason, who sent
them to jail in default of bail for their
appearance at the next term of the In
ferior Court for trial. A third partv
was implicated in the theft and though
he made his escape he will no doubt
soon be captured.
A Desperado Captured.
Policemen Blackwelder and Boyte
last night captured a formidable char
acter in the person of Pink Byers, col
ored, disarmed him and put him in the
lock-up. Pink had been raising a big
disturbance in his house and his family
sent for the police to protect them
from his violence. Blackwelder and
Boyte responded to the summons and
arrested Pink a short distance from his
home. When arrested the negro was
found to be armed with a large pistol,
one of the sort that shoots eleven
times without stopping, a pair of brass
knucks and a loaded stick. He had-
made threats against the police and had
prepared himself to resist arrest. He
is a bad character and deserves to be
dealt with severely.
Sunday Notes.
The North Carolina Conference
meets with the Edenton Street Metho
dist church, Raleigh, N. C., on Decem
ber 6th. Bishop Keener will preside.
Dr. A. G. Haygood, of Georgia, has
been offered the agency of the Slater
fund. This fund amounts to Sl.000,000,
given by a Northern philanthropist for
the education of the Southern colored
people.
The Messrs Odell & Co., of Concord
have built a commodious and neat
chapel at their factory for Sunday school
purposes and other religious services.
It was dedicated, after a suitable ser
mon by Rev. W. S. Creasy, the pastor,
on the 22nd of October.
Bro. C. T. Bailey, of the Biblical
Recorder, who has a lot of grim humor
in him, says that the Baptists rather
had the advantage of the Methodist in
the episode that occurred at the Metho
dist Semi-Centennial celebration in
Plainfield, N. J., last Sunday. Said Dr.
Dunn, addressing the Baptist pastor
present, "Dr. Yerkes, there is only a
stream of water which prevents the
Baptists and Methodists from coming
together." "Yes," said Dr Yerkes, "and
if you Methodists will come half way.
we will meet you in the middle of it."
The colored M. E. Church in Amer
ica is a strong one, and makes the fol
lowing statistical exhibit: Bishops, 4;
preachers, 1,729; members, 125,000; Sun,
day schools, 1,457 ; Sunday school teach
ers, 3,773 ; Sunday school scholars.42,254.
The four larger Protestant ch n rches
in the world are said to be of the Bap
tist denomination, to-wit: Spurgeon's
in London, that of the Telugus at On-
gole, one in Germany near the Russian
boundary, and the First African Bap
tist Church, Richmond, Va.
It is a good suggestion of a Presby
terian paper that if receptions are in
order for pastors who have enjoyed va
cations, some suitable recognition
ought to be given those who have abid
ed at their posts all the year. The broth
er who has not been to the seaside, Sar
atoga, or across the ocean, ought to
have proof that he is appreciated by his
people, and what better proof cf this,
asks the Biblical II c order, can a pastor
have than a paid up salary and thor
ough co-operation in his work?
We may look for another influx of
Mormonites shortly, as fifty-three Mor
mon missionaries departed for Europe
from New York, last Tuesday, on the
steamer Wyoming. Twenty-two of
them are bound for Scandinavia, two
for Scotland, two for France, two for
Holland. England is the destination
of the others. These missionaries pay
their proselytes' expenses to this coun
try, and make them a present of a set
tlement in Utah. There is not a place
in the world where this would not make
converts,

Candidate for County Surveyor.
Fellow-Citizens of Mecklenburg :
Mr. M. D. L. Blggers, the nominee of the Liberal
party for the position of County Surveyor, having
withdrawn from the contest. I hereby announce
myself an independent candidate for that posi

political In any sense, I have no hesitation In say
ing that my sympathies are with the Liberal party
in this race, and that I expect to vote the entire
Liberal ticket on the day of election.
