VOL. XXXVI.
THE COUNTY CANVASS.
VERY GOOD CROWDS MET
THE CANDIDATES.
The Speeches of Mp. Biekett
are Able and well Received
Every Precinct Gives Evi
dence of a Full Vote.
Since our last issue the Democratic
candidates have spoken at Youngs
ville, Franklinton, Rocky Ford, Lau
rel, Centrevi le and Cedar Rock, and
today they are at Gatesville in Cy
press (reek. At Youngsville, Mr.
F. S. Spruill spoke with the candi
dates. He was there to represent.
the County Commissioners, and right
well did he perform that duty. He
fully explained how they had saved
money to the tax-payers by their
economical methods in handling tire
county's affairs, and denounced the
attack made upon tho members of
the Board as unjust and untrue. He
also explained to the people about
the contract for the county printing
and said that the printing was award-
e l to the Franklix Times after a
full investigation as to its worth by a
committee appointed by the Board
for that purpose. He also referred
to the excellent financial condition of
the county, and showed by facts and
figures that the present Board of
Commissioners had saved at least one
thousand dollars a year o the tax
payers in the way of reduced fees in
the various county offices.
The campaign of Mr. Biekett, the
candidate fqr the legislature, is one of
the most brilliant ever made in this
county. He has delivered able and
telling speeches each day, and the
people are charmed with him.
Solicitor Daniels was with the can
lilates at Centrville and Stallings
where the candidates were met by
large and enthusiastic crowds. The
able speeches of Mr. Daniels were
heard with interest and pleasure by
the people of those two townships.
1 he canvass will close o-morrow
in Louisburg, when the candidates
will appear in the Court House at
o'clock. Let everybody attend and
hear the issues discussed.
Four Boxes.
There wili be four ballot boxes in
which to cast your vote next Tuesday
as follows: State, (Congressional,
County, and Township. The Demo
cratic State ticket will be headtd
with Franklin McNeill, the candi
date for Corporation Commissioner,
and the county ticket will be headed
with Charles C. Daniels, candidate
for Solicitor of this district. The
Congressional ticket with the name
of E. W. Pou there n will b 3
voted for to itself, and the township
ticket will be voted in one box.
A CARD.
I received last night a letter from
Youngsville which brought me the in
telligence that Willis Tharrington,
the man who claims to oe a Demo
crat, but who has been persuaded by
Republicans to run against me for
County Treasurer, and whose name
is already printed on the Republican
ticket, is going through the country
telling the people that W. W
Boddie made a bid for the coun
ty printing for $100. I d nounce
that statement as untrue. Bcddie
has never made any bid for the print
ing. He said he wanted to make a
bid but he never made it.
The writer of the letter also sa; s
that Mr. Tharrington is charging
that the school fund is being squan-

I have faith in the true Democrats
of Franklin county, and I do not be
lieve that they will allow themselves
to be influenced by the misrepresen
tations of a man who has not been a
citizen of the county for a sufficient
length of time to have informed him
self of the condition of affairs. Not
being informed upon county affairs
he is allowing himself to be used bv
the1 Republicans and s few disgrunt
led men, claiming to be Democrats
to disrupt -the Democratic party.
I call upon every true Democrat in
the county to turn out at the polls on
next Tuesday and cast his vote for
the entire Democratic ticket, aud
thereby put his seal upon such double

Dp. P. R. Hatch fop the House.
It is said that since the refusal of
Mr. Shearin to allow his name to
run on the Republican ticket in
Franklin County for the House,
the name of Dr. Peter R. Hatch,
the Postmaster at Youngsville, has
been substituted. We had not
heard of this until last Friday when
it was whispered around Youngs
ville. As soon as we heard this we
c?uld account for the "negro school"
that it is said the Dr. had been super
intending for the past several weeks.
We heard in Youngsville last Fri
day, on very reliable authority, that
he has been "schooling! negroe
with a view of getting their names
on the registration books. Did you
ever? Who would have' thought
it? A "White Lily" tutoring ne
groes and teaching them how to reg
ister! And now asking White
men to vote for him.
Death of Miss Cenie Tucker.
After a lingering illness of several
months, all that was .mortal of the
above named young lady passed
from this to the world beyond on
Friday morning of last week. She.
was a daughter of the- late J. B.
Tucker, and leaves a mother and sev
eral brothers, among them Mr. Jno.
A Tucker, of High Point, and Mr.
Claude Tucker, one of our efficient
policemen. Her remains ,were taken
to the family burying ground in San
dy Creek township on Saturday
morning, where the funeral services
were conducted by Rev. Q.'M. Duke.
The pall-bearers, were A. A. Clifton,
Evexard Cooke, D. G. Pearce, R. A.
Pearce, E. C. Perry and Blair Tuck
er. The 'bereaved mother and
brothers have our sincere sympathy.
