Transon, Ashe County, N. C, Oct. 8.
Mr. Blackburn is today at Transon,
Ashe county. This is the point at
which the democratic candidate had an
appoinment some days ago, but did not
have a sufficient number to wnich he
could speak, in contrast to the num
ber (one) who came to meet the demo
cratic candidate, Mrv Blackburn to-
weather, hajl more than two hundred
voters beside the women and children.
This heretofore has been a democratic
township, two years ago being more
than fifty majority democratic. All
concede this precinct to Mr. Blackburn
in the coming election by at least forty
majority.
Hisspeech today was greeted by the
number of voters present with vocifer-

MARK TWAIN AS HE LOOKS TODAY.
After a long stay abroad Mark Twain is coming home. Although he is 65

humorist has not yet laid aside his pen and is still doing good work.

democrats, were among his most en

There are
never any ex
ternal signs of
Cancer until
the blood is
polluted and the system thoroughly con
taminated by this deadly virulent poison.
Then a sore or ulcer appears on some
Eart of the body ; it may be small and
armless looking at first, buf as the can
cerous cells form and are deposited by
the blood near the sore, it increases in
size and severity, with sharp shooting
pains. No matter how often the sore ia
removed 'by the Mirgeons knife or flesh
destroying plasters, another comes and is
worse. """The real disease is in the blood,
and the treatment must begin there. The
blood must be invigorated and
and when this is done cancerous
cells can no longer form and the sore will
heal naturally and permanently.

the force of every word that fell from
Mr. Blackburn'. lips.
He dwelt at length upon the price of
each agricultural product, every fowl
that is sold f rnui the farm; sheep, hors
es and cattle. The price from 1802 to
1896 was contrasted with that of 1S3S
to 1900, and he tnly asked the vo:a f
the people present upon the condition

him.
The" enthusiasm was unbounded
among those present. I learned that

spoken .Blackburn mf.n. " -
Mr. Bla.:kbuin's campaign is a con
vincing one. The Impression upon the
audience today, twio hundred or more
stalwart mountaineers, who make their
livings upon their little plantations,
from farm products and live stock, is
in marked contrast to the demagougic
talk of the democratic orator. The lat
ter finds no 'field here for his visionary
prognostications, since the people have
not forgotten what they received for
every farm product, as well as for their
live stock.
So intensely interested are the people
In the discussion of the issues, that lit
tle attention is paid to the conditions of
the weather when it is learnedthit
Mr. Blackburn is to speak. " v.
These are truly freemen. Stuffing
ballot boxes, unregistered voters and
intimidation are things entirely un
known to them. Each man expresses
his sentiment by depositing his ballot
unmolested and having that ballot
counted, and everyone is a sovereign in
the fullest meaning of that word.
"The softest zephyrs," Mr. Black
burn said today, "whisper freedom to
the child, rocked in its cradle, and the
shrill winds of winter shriek freedom in
stalwart manhood's ear. We're all
one upon a common,level and no vile
machine dares assail freedom's eternal
habitation or liberty's permanent abid-
ing place. No revolution dares stalk
abroad, nor murder, nor circumspec
tion. The rights of the citizen are in
variable and to all the ballot is se
cure. "He who dares preclude his country
men from exercising the right of the
franchise will be punished as is right.
I am just in receipt of a letter from
Greensboro, stating that six of those
registrars who suppressed our vote in
the August election have been indicted
in the United States court at Greens
boro. We only ask the registration of
our lawful voters, and none but Law
, ful voters, and this we must have and
will have. The laws, of this country as
well as our constitution insure to ev
ery man who obeys the laws the right
to cast one ballot and have that ballot
counted as oast, and it is our duty aa
citizens of a common country to main
tain these laws and see that they are
executed.
"Give us our rights under the consti
tution and all is well. Otherwise, law
lessness and anarchy reigns supreme.
I appeal to each and every citzen to aid
in the vindication of our system of gov
ernment. In this section we fear no
intimidation, and when the will of the
people la registered a majority will be
counted in our favor."
We passed' Ore Knob on our way from
Transon to Jefferson. The Ore Knob
Copper company operated these mines
about twelve years, getting out some
of the richest copper ore that the coun
try haa ever produced. It had to be
hauled fifty miles overland, and when
copper got cheaper it proved too ex
pensive and the mines were abandoned
in 1892. About six hundred hands were
employed and during several years as
high as three thousand men were on
the ray rolls. At one time seven big
nail Regs of Mexican dollars were used
to pay off tne men. A mountain of ore
is still piled at the mouth of the tunnel
and the smelter and furnaces are still
there - General Manager Clayton of
the old company now owns all of the
stock, and with a railroad through this
section work would be revived. .This
project is practically certain of fulfill
ment if Mr. McKinley is re-elected.

These mica mines are in "Ashe county,
and have been opened since July L this

as general manager. There are nine
veins opened already, and a mill is be

mica flour for lubricating purposes. A
