The fusion stumpers and organs, especially those of the Populist stripe, act on the assumption that the people whom they address are deficient in common sense 'and that they can be gulled by any ; kind of a story these fakirs may see' fit to in vent. They struck on the fake about depriving negroes aid "poor white men" of suffrage in the event the Democrats carry the State, and although that didn't have as much effect as they hoped it would, they are still playing it at cross-roads meetings, but not as much nor as boldly as they did at first. Their latest dodge is calling tie Demo cratic party the "nigger?' party, while in the same breath: they are appealing to the negroes- to vote solidly against the party which Office Hunter Dockery j has the cheek to tell them? "has I put more negroes in office than aiiy other party." That is intended, of course, for consumption among he white Populists, and not the, negroes, the intent being to fool the Populists who believe in white supremacy into the belief that the Democratic party vwas and still is a "nigger"; party. If theyTiave fooled any Populist with this kind of chatter it must be some poor unfortunate who has been over looked and thus escaped getting into -a lunatic asylum.

They haveialsoTdiscovered some ne gro ischoor committeemen (who didnftfhave anything to do with vhite schools) and a few negro road overseers who were appointed to oversee roads, principally used by negroes and in negro settlements. They thought they struck a bo nanza when.-fchey discovered that the Legislature of 1877 had elected 107 negro magistrates, concealing the fact that the negroes thus elected were recommended by the Repub lican members from the respective counties for which they were elected, and that it was not stated and noth ing said to indicate that they were hegroe3 when thus recommended Be that as it may thewhite people of the cpunties for which these negroes were elected had protection : because there were two white magis trates elected to one black one, or rather two white Democrats to one black Republican. If any me is to Be held responsible and culpable for the election of these negro magis trates it is the Republican members of that Legislature which chose them in preference to white men and recommended them for these positions. This was for the whole State and it covered a period of eighteen years during which the Democrats had control of the State Bat with all their digging and delving they have never been able to find a single in stance where the Democrats have in any convention nominated a negro. to any position btate, county or municipal, or appointed one to any position where he would come into official contact with white people or would have the slightest control over them. And yet the Democratic party treated the negro kindly, but didn't try to win negro votes by nominating them for county offices, or making them be lieve that in the future the way to office would be open to them quite as freely as to the white people. The Democratic party was in control of the Legislature for twenty-four years, and in full control of the State Government for eighteen years and in all that time thev, with hard work, found less than a dozen ne groes occupying - positions ol any kind, these small, and not one in which they had any agency in mak ing laws or ruling white people. So much for. the "nigger party" that these prospecting fusion stumpers have discovered. What do we see on the. other side? The Rad-Pop. combine has been in power iour-years.i In that time they have put into office over 300 negro magistrates, they have given the negro school committeemen con trol equally with the white commit teemen of the white schools, and they have pat into offices of various de grees a thousand or more negroes. All this within four years, against the handful that held any kind of position during the twenty-four years of Democratic ascendency. With such records standing in contrast it is amazing that ..they should have the cheek to charge the Democratic party with being a ne gro party, and favoring putting ne groes in office. The fact that they are resorting to such dodges as this shows how desperate theyare be coming. CONCEDING THE CHARGES. The fusion stumpers and leaders, to break the force of protests against negro domination in Eastern North Carolina, have asserted that they were simply Democratic inventions for campaign purposes, when they know the contrary, and as intelligent, reading men must and do know the condition of the Eastern part of the State and the proportions that negro domination has reached in some of the Eastern counties. It would be a reflection upon. -v intelligence to suppoiwr-fey do not, although their attempted misrepresentation of the situation, with the intent to de ceive the people, is even a greater re flection upon their honesty and ve racity. We have heretofore published several letters from Republicans who haye lived or still live in other sec tions of the State, confirming the reports of the unhappy condition of this section after .personal observa tion and inquiry among the people, regardless of politics, -and these are supplemented and confirmed' by the second letter of Postmaster Chad- bourn, of this city, published a few days ago, and . by the interview with Col. Foster, one of the leading Re publicans of this section, published inyesterday'8 STAB. They both ad mit the foundation for and the truth of the representations made as to county in the Eastwhere thesiegro rules or aspires to rule. - ;As to the condition in this city the city authorities made a full con fession when they a few ctays ago removed six negro policemen from the force, without any charge being preferred against them, but simply because they were negroes.' If they felt that it was" right -lov.put those. negroes orr the pOliceforce anot:' to keep thenvonMn ' sjpite : of public opinion, up toihe time :bf rtheirTe movaV why did" theyliemOTe-Ithem, J without any charges being 'made against them? r It is Simply a con fession,' that they had gone too far in pandering to the negro element, a fact which they f have known all along, for these 'protests - and the expressions ? of publics indignation are not how being made for the first time. i' ; . j . i7:'-". - Of course it is very "well under stood why this action was taken at this late day, that it is simply a ruse for political effect, to fool, people into the belief that they are going to give us a whiter, more decent and respectable city government. "The negroes removed and others doubt less understand it : too, which ac counts for their failure to protest against this drawing x. of the color line by their own partisan city gov ernment. But all this, from Republican au thorities, is emphatically confirma tory of the representations made by the white people of the East as to the unhappy condition of this sec tioil of the State. CHAINING WHITE PRISONERS TO NEGROES. We have recently published three instances where fusion sheriffs have chained to negroes white prisoners that . they were taking to the peni tentiary at Raleigh. One of these was from Lenoir county, another from Craven and another from Sampson, an account of which was criven in vesterdav's Star in a special telegram. We do not know that any of these white convicts were particularly sensitive, of that they felt this addi tional humiliation and degradation that was imposed upon them, but thus chaining them to negro con victs was not only an outrage upon them but a premeditated and delib erate insult to the white people of the State, who believe that even convicts have rights that officers of the law should respect. This outrage upon these prisoners and insult to the white people of the State are intensified by the fact that in one instance Craven the sheriff had : publicly declared that he would chain some white convict to a negro and carried out his threat at the first opportunity, and in another Sampson the deputy in charge of the prisoners ignored the protests of the white people of Goldsboro, and yielded only when the indignation became uncomfortable to him and a magis trate had been invoked. Then he consented to unchain the white boy from the negro convict. There is no occasion for anything like this, but the simple truth is that these brutal and brazen officers, who long ago forfeited the respect of decent people, do it in a spirit of devilishness and defiance of public sentiment, even more callous to it than the unfortunate victims they thus abuse, whose places they would fill within prison walls if they got their deserts. GAVE THEM MORE THAN THEY ASKED. The fusionists of Robeson county Are running an unsophisticated citi zen named Atlas Atkinson for the Legislature. We call him unsophis ticated for it isn't often that a fusion candidate blurts out the truth as he did in a meeting recently in Allen- ton, that county. He was there to announce his can didacy, as we learn from tke Robe- sonian, and feeling the necessity of giving some reason why fusion had been made with the Republi cans, he innocently exclaimed Look at what the Republi cans have done for us. They have given us more than we asked of the Democrats." The Democrats refused to give them the offices they demanded and then they toddled over to the Republicans and struck a trade, on a basis of- the divide of the offices. The fellows who worked up the trade pretend that it was to keep the Populist party together, as Cy. Thompson says, so that it would be in shape to go into the campaign in 1900, but they are frauds and lack the candor and honesty of this un sophisticated ' aspiring Robeson statesman who thus candidly and innocently blurted -out the truth.

I have been watching the political movement in North Carolina lor the past two years, and I have been looking for better government , and better times, but I have failed to see either. The Populists, ; when they came in power, promised us great things, to-wit: Lower taxes, better government, and to decrease the number of offices in the j State and decrease State expenses in gen eral. Instead of that they have given us higher taxes, more officers and negro rule. And 1 for one do forever sever my connection with the fusion crowd and negro rule in North Carolina, and will vote in the coming election the Democratic ticket the white man's ticket. I appeal to all good people in good faith, to come to our rescue and help elect a white ticket. Once a Populist, but now a Democrat. Sincerely, S. A. Jenkins, Locust, Stanly Co., X.

The road is well laid and the ma terial used in its construction is all first class. The iron bride over Stonv creek, near the North Carolina line. which was only completed a few days ago, is a very handsome structure and cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $75,000. Along the twenty miles of this road which has just been finished there are most valuable timber lands, and al ready some dozen or more large. saW mills have been established on the line of the road, all of which are now in active operation. The first passenger train over this road was run Wednes day to Dinwinddie Court House. Dunn Union: Mrs. Kitty Ann Warren, wife of SamDson Warren of Sampson county, died very suddenly in the store of the Massengill Dry Goods Company here Monday. She with her husband and a. niece, Miss Geneva West, came to town early in the morning and were shopping. They remained until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon when they were making preparations to go out home. Mrs. Warren went in the store and Mr. Massengill and his clerks being busy she stepped behind the counter to examine some goods and while there she was stricken and fell between the shelf and counter and was dead when Mr. Massengill, who was on the opposite side of the store, reached her. We are informed that Mr. James Henry Johnson, who lives near Jfeacock s (Jross Koads, in Johnston county, died Monday. He was about 65 years old.

A Sermon o Bow to - Get and Hold Customers. In a paper entitled "How to Get nnd Hold CostoiiH-rs," read by S. Brl.cker of Idstowell, Or,t... at tho annual meeting of the Ontario Hnrdware association, he said: 'The business man who looks at deliver ing his goods and getting his money ag the only thing which is related to each transaction hiis a very in porta nfc lesson to learn. No doubt thero are some. who differ with me in this particular and say : Busi ness is business, and friendship forma no part of it. Admitting that it is all busi ness and that the customer gets value equal to his money, his future patronage ia nevertheless to bo considered and solicited apart from his money. Between the two we may not be able to make the distinc tion very quickly, but there is a distinc tion nevertheless, and he who has careful ly, stud led the- philosophy, of -trade can readily denne it. "A customer's money is only a matter of the moment and has reference to a par ticular transaction. His patronage, his good will, his influence, however, are of paramount importance, for which we should be willing to forego very much that be may be retained with the bouse. A customer who buys but one bill is not profitable except to the extent of his pur chase. When we get a chance to sell to a party one bill, we are in duty bound to our business to treat him so well that when he leaves us he will say, 'When I re quire anything more in this line,. I will buy it from this man.' Since we are so inevitably dependent upon each other and necessarily helpers of each other, it would be very unwise, and almost certain rain for a merchant to establish tho rule that be will do just as he pleases and not solicit the good will or favor of any one. Ability to satisfy a customer with your goods will induce bim to buy. Politeness and honest treatment will induce bim to buy again." Hardware. Yellow Jaundice Cured.

The cable news from Liverpool at hand this morning was better than had been looked for, and the cotton market opened with- prices showing an ad vance of 1 and 2 points, steady in. tone. For a time the situation. was supported by foreign orders that gen erally went to the remote deliveries with May the favorite position. The early market was also helped by claims that southern spot markets were har dening on foreign demand. Soon after the opening call, however, there was an abrupt change in sentiment. Liqui dation commenced and the bears at tacked the market with energy on claims that the outlook was worse as to affairs between this country and Spain, with European politics also un certain. Prices generally worked off 2 and 3 points, to the lowest of the day. The decline was assisted by earner weather reports from the cot ton belt and by claims that the move ment of cotton next week would be abnormally heavy. The feeling in the early afternoon was feverish , with fears of a bearish set of cables from Liverpool . to-morrow morning. The market closed steady with prices net unchanged to one point lower.
