- COBB AND DURHAM.
Tt,e Ilccord of Two Nominee r tHe
1 Third Party. '
Charlotte Observers Shelby Dispatch.
R. A. Cobb, Third party candidate
for Lieutenant-Governor, is well and
most unfavorably known in this
county, where he married and lived
for severaf year's. About the close of
the war hi was an impressing officer
and tithe gatherer and inflicted great
suffering iaround here. Amongst
others from whom he impressed
stores was Mrs. Micajah Durham,
widow of a soldier who had enlisted
as a substitute arid was killed in the
service, and mother ot the lamented
Capt. riato Durham. Cobb took
from her about a dozen hogs and
drove them into; Shelby, where he
kept them for some time after the
Wapt. Durham did not know of this
until his return after the surrender
when he met Cobb'on the street and
denounced the; latter as a hog thief
and gave him a severe caning - This
fact can be substantiated by dozens
of prominent citizens of Cleveland
Dr. L. N. Durham, candidate for
Secretary of Slate, has a record for
heartlessness and penuriousness
that is hard to surpass. .In 1878, at
the age of 79, DrL Durham's father,
Lemuel Durham, lost' his mind; and
although he had a plantation of 213
acres on which he paidTaxes, and his
son,, the doctor, was the a dentist
and.returned his property for taxation
at nineteen hundred and twenty-seven
dollars, an effort; was made by him
to have.the old man sent to the in
sane asylum. Failing in this the
son appeared before the county com
missioners and obtained an order al
lowing the old man one hundred dol
lars per year. This sum was paid
for nine months and 22 days, when
death put an end to the old man's
sufferings.' : . r '
The nomination of these two men
has injured the Third party in this
county. ; I -j
Weaver, the Vlllrler of the South.'
National Democrat. .
Where is the 'man in the South,
Democrat, white 1 Republican, or re
spectable colored brother, who would
see that country again blighted with
the curse of carpet bag and negro
rule? A vote for, Weaver, the bitter,
malignant vilifier of the. Southern
people and the huckstering political
scavenger who'.sold out in 1880, de
feating General Hancock, if it means
anything at all, means a vote not to
elect him, but to defeat the Demo
cratic party, and therefore bring up
on the South Harrison and Daven
port's infamous ; force bill, which
would reduce the people of that sec
tion of the Union to more abject op
pression than England ever imposed
on down-trodden Ireland.
It is to-bring about this result that
Weaver is to-day a candidate.
Is there any man in the South who
loves his section and his country and
prizes the prosperity and "happiness
of his family and posterity, so un
mindful of his duty and so recreant
to all that he should hold most sa
cred, as to cast his suffrage- for this
putrid mass of political corruption ?
If so let nim hang his head in
shame, and hide himself in some dark
cavern of- the earth 1 where the light
of day has never penetrated and the
indignation of an outraged people
can never reach, i Let the people of
the South read and ponder over the
bitter and malignant, coarse and vul
gar denunciations heaped upon them
by this man, and spurn him as they
would l'ast Butler or a viper.

THE PECULIAR AND ASTONISHING
POWERS HE POSSESSES- ' .
Experiment of a Washington Newspaper
Man Becret of His Xjile Told off Hand
Judge Good speed Relates Boms' . As
tonishing Faota He Had Investigated A
Distinguished Family, ' ,:
Frow the Washington Posl.)
"Look back of you three seats," said
my friend Judge Goodspeed just I before
the limited express from Boston pulled
out of the Providence depot. "You see
that gentleman with glasses putting on
bis travelling cap? ' v .
"Yes. 1 see him. he has a look between
the eye similar to that of Beecher. Bob
ngersoll and Edison. Who is he t
''Well. sir. he is one of the best known
men in New England, if not in the coun
try. He is one ot the most brilliant.
brainy and remarkable men ot his age.
By this time l was mnoi curiosity ana
wanted to know first who he was, and
second all about him. i .
The judge, in a cool and contrary
mood, replied: ?I will first tell you about"
him, then I will tell you who he is. He
is a young man somewhere about the
forties. He is a practicing physician
and enjoys, as is generally conceded, the
largest practice of. any physician in the
world, in his university course be was
admitted for the law, for medicine and
the ministry, and a tew minutes' con
versation with him would satisfy you
he was well qualified for "either.
"As an orator he has no superior in
the land: He is logical in his reasoning
and irresistible in his appeals. He is the
man of whom Hon. M. C Kerr, ex-
speaker of the House of Representa
tives, said, 'he did not believe an Amer
ican lury could be touna wno wouia
hang a man if he had the opening or
closing speech.' When he appears be
fore jhe Legislature for or against a mea
sure it is a signal for a crowd that no hall
in the State House could hold. He ap
peared against a measure before the
Massachusetts Legislature a few years
ago. X tie bill was represented Dy tne
ablest counsel in'the State. The com
mittee were known to be favorable to
the bill, with perhaps one exception.
When the bill came up for hearing nu
merous counsel for the petitioners re
sponded. Then tbis gentleman arose,
and stepping forward, said:. Mr.
Chairman and gentlemen of the ju
diciary committee, I appear for the re
monstrants.' This remark was applauded,
for it meant to the audience an oratori
cal duel to the death. After the peti
tioners had presented their side of the
case, and everybody thought the bill as
good as passed.' this gentleman for three
hours argued against the bill. He pre
sented his side of the case in such a
light that it looked as though a disgrace
ful, infamous and outrageous Iiw was
being forced upon the State. His sar
casm at times was so severe that one
felt pity for his opponent regardless of
theic feeling in the matter. One minute
the whole - house ' would be- convulsed
with laughter , and the next every eye
would be moistened with tears. Over
many of his eloquent climaxes his bit
terest opponents would cheer loudly,
forgetting what " they were doing. I
need only add that the committee voted
against the bill without any delay.
'I started out to say. continued the
judge, "that he was as a physician dis
appointed and disgusted with the or
dinary methods of practice and made a
specialty of chronic - diseases. He has
broken away lrom therein metnoas.
using, as he states, the good from every
school and the good outside of all
schools. ' He is a man of means, and
consequently has everything that money
can purchase to aid him in his practice.
He has enjoyed an extensive practice,
and bas had an extended and varied ex
perience. He is a man of travel,, re
search, and' broad education. His
specialties are said to be cancer, con
sumption, tumor, paralysis, rheumatism,
heart and nerve diseases, lnese be
seems to treat with wonderiui success.
and his friends affirm that he will cure
patients of these malignant diseases
who are given up by other methods of
practice to die. t
"I have understood from the most re
liable authority that he averages up
wards of 13,000 patients under his care
all the time. He has several physicians
in his employ, and all the facilities nec
essary for a great and extended practice.
"Young as be is it is safe to say he is
the highest authority in the East on
chronic diseases. There is nothing
higher in all this country. If he says a
man will die he is pretty sure to die, out
the hope for the sick man who goes to
htm lies in this, that he seldom thinks a
sick man incurable, and to him they sel
dom are; when other physicians pro
nounce their 'cases incurable, he will
take them and cure them in the most
astonishing and miraculous way. Many
people in New England believe ms cures
are miraculous though ne stoutly ae-
nies that they are anything of the kind
while he retrains from saying bow be
performs these most wonderful cures.
"But, Judge, you have not tola me
who he is." .
"He is Dr. RX3. Flower, of Boston.'
"Yoa don't mean to tell me that this
is Dr. R. C. Flower, of Boston, who sev
eral years ago startled the world by cur
ing, in apparently a miraculous way, the
President of the fensylvania Kailroad,
also Joseph Jefferson, the great actor?"
"The same man.
"Why, I thought he was an old man!
"Everybody thinks so."
But how old is he?'
"I don't know. I told you I thought
he was about the forties. He may be a
thousand for aught I know, but he only
looks like a boy.
"Well. mdge. how do you come to
know so much about Dr. Flower." i';
"Well. sir. I will tell-you. There was
a time I disbelieved everything I heard
about him, being prejudiced I presume
against him, put I had a friend, one very
near and dear to me, who was taken
down with quick consumption. He was
a man of ample means and tried the best
physicians the -world produced, but ne
grew worse rapidly. His physicians told
him finally there was no nope lor mm
to set his house in order, that be could
not live more than six or eight weeks at
the best, and as most of his family bad
died with consumption, we accepted
their opinion as the ultimatum. As a
last resort, to pass away the hours of the
death watch he went to see ur. flower,
The doctor told him it was his opinion
that he could cure him, though it would
take several months to do it. . So favor-
ahlw did the doctor impress my friend
and his wife that they returned home
believing he would get well, and, strange
to say, that man, -almost in the fhroes
of death, a feeble skeleton, arose into
health as if touched by a charmed
sceptre, and to-day he is a-well man.
- Shortlv after this occurrence my step
Hancrhter had a cancer come in her left
breast. It developed very rapidly. HerJ
familv ohvsician sent her to a specialist
in New York. He pronounced it malig
nant cancer, and that he could do noth
ing for her. She then visited ur. Ag
new. of Philadelphia, who told her hus
band that he could cut it it, but it would
come again and that there was no cure
inr her. As a last resort she consulted
Dr. R. C. Flower. The doctor told her
he would rather not take the case. .
"That means, ' said the woman, burst
ing into tears, that you do not- think
"arill 0t well." -
Thti remark seemed to disturb the
rdoctor. "Is your Jife of very great im
rvortanrft or conseauence to your family?
"I .have a sick husband and four lit
tie rirls mv God! To leave them with
out a mother and almost orphans, near
ly kills me." ; .
This was more than he could stand
big tears filled his large, gray eyes,
"Don't cry, my poor child; I will cure
vou of this disease. I will stand" between
you and death, until your children are
grown. . By the help of Jjod, and 'the
power I possess, I will cure you. ... ;", v :
tit said this as if he meant it, and I
guess he did, foe at the end of nine
months that woman was a well woman
and has been so to tbis day. ,
About this time 1 joined a society for
psychological and. scientific 'research.
Some of Dr. Flower's cures were so sug
gestive of the occult, and bis examina
tions so strange that it was decided : by
our society to investigate his claims-and
practices. I was made the chairman of
the committee appointed to make the
investigation; After months of research
we arrived at the following conclusions:
first, that Ur. K.C Flower possesses an
Intuitional power or gift which enables
him to diagnose any person s disease in
detail and accurately without asking any
questions: Second, that be possesses an
ability in the treatment of chronic' dis
eases which is phenomenal. "Third, that
his methods are different from those of
ordinary practice and peculiarly his own.
Here is what some of the most promi
nent people of the East say about Dr.
flower, being a part ot our investiga
tions. - '"''-. -:- !....)
Mrs. Mary E. Youne. of 93 Harlow St..
Bangor, Me., says on the 14th of Decem
ber, 1891, my little girl was given up as
incurable with typhoid "fever; After
every hope "was abandoned, and - she
sinking through the last change, I tele
graphed Dr. R. C Flower the situation,
and asked him to save. her. He tele
graphed that be would 'do so. that he
would stand between my child and
death, and for me not to fear and he
did in the most wonderful way she im-s
proved, just as he said she would. We
all feel that she was brought back to
life. I don't know how he performed
the cure,' I only know he did so." r
Hon. J. D. Hopkins, ot Ellsworth. Me.,

Dr. Brooks, of Brooks & Evans, a

said: "I am an admirer ot Dr. R. C.

Mrs. Fry, of 198 Oak St., Lewiston,
Me, Said: "You see that little girl. For
several years she was troubled with a
growth in ' her nose, which had been
gradually filling it up. We frequently
had to have it partially removed so she
could breathe. The last year it grew
rapidly worse and assumed a malignant
phase. We were advised to have an ex
tended operation as the only thing that
could save her health and life, and with
no certainty that it would be successful.
Dreading such an operation, ray hus

CHICAGO MARKET REVIEW.
. Downfall in Prices of All Products.
Br telegraph to the Morning Star.
Chicago, August 81. There was
weakness and depression in all the pits
on the Board of Trade to-day, and a
sharp decline all along the line. Every
body seemed disposed to sell, and there
was little inclination to buy. New
York and St. Louis led the selling. The
chief cause of thi condition of affairs
was the growing fear that cholera would
gain a foothold in this country, with all
sorts ot panic possibilities as the result.
Wheat showed a downward tendency
from the start, and first transactions
were at c decline from yesterday. The
expected frost did not materialize, and
the Government weekly crop- bulletin
was unexpectedly favorable for the crop.
Domestic and foreign markets were all
lower and weak, and receipts were very
large. The close was c lower near the
lowest prices of the season. . Other
months shared in the decline.
Corn was depressed and lower from
the start, opening c lower and losing

Faix River. Mass., August 81.
Most of the morning session in the Bor

others. The testimony was not" especi
ally important. Marshal Hilhard testi
fied to the thoroughness of the search
made of .the Borden house; that he was
not hindered in making the examination

It is undoubtedly a fact that the

Beulah township is the hot bed
ot lhird partyism in Johnston county,
There are more Third party ites in that

there are mdre white Republicans in

the Child tq whom they gave birth.

& Co.'s cotton review says:
The week's Government report can
hardly be regarded especially favorable
in its character, and the, North Carolina
State report which reaches us this morn
ing puts the condition of the crop in
that State at 70, which is low. This
news, however, has been entirely without
effect upon the market, and reports of
the extension of cholera have had a de
pressing effect both in Liverpool and
here. In Liverpool futures closed easy
at 2-64 decliee. and by 1 o'clock the
New York market showed a loss of
about eight points as compared with
yesterday's, figures. During the after
noon a re ort that cholera had developed
in Liverpbot and that a steamer with
several cases of it on board had arrived
in lower New York bay, led to a sharp
break in the market, and a further deJ
cline of about five points was established.
The closing was weak and three points,
