2 NO NATIONAL FUSION MAJ. GUTHRIE SVYS HE DID NOT VOTE FOR TOM SETTLE. WILL VOTE FOR NO GOLD MAN He Was Afraid Somebody Might Think He Voted for Tommie the Gold-bnc, So He Made a Democrat Watch Him Vote -No Fusion on Na tional Questions—But Dr. Mott Thinks There Will He, But Doesn’t Know Justllow. Three un’que men were in Raleigh yesterday. 001. William F. Cody, Maj. William A. Guthrie aud Dr. Joseph John Mott were within our walls. Col. Cody with his long hair and flow ing mustache carries with him the air of the untrained West. Maj Guthrie might be taken for the Jolly Friar or for Buffalo Bill's chief ring master. Dr. Mott is a mau apart —sui generis —a bird of a rare species. He is tall and straight as an Indian, with a face as im penetrable as Tom P’att’s, aud the easy, smooth voice of a most discroet politi cian. Maj. Guthrie and Dr. Mott .arrived to gether, aud saw the performance of the celebrity from the Wild West. “What do you think of the opposition among the Republicans to fusion iu the National ticket ?” a reporter asked the genial Major. “I don’t know anything about poli tics,” he said, “I've been practising law’ at Chatham Court for ten days, and am now doing the same thing iu Durham. I don't even know whether there is snch a split among the Rt publicans. “But I will say this much, and you can quote it: Ido not expect to see a gold-bug and f?ye silver ticket run to gether here in North Carolina next year. I honestly believe that the Populists will stand by their platform in national af fairs, and will vote only for free silver candidates. Ido not believe they will support a mixed electoral ticket. They will, I think, s’and by the resolutions passed by the silver convention that met here on £ept. 25th. •‘There may be co operation on State issues and a S*ate ticket—co-operation with the liberal wing of the R-publican party who are nit so unalterably com n i ted to the cause of monometalism. “But if the Republicans put up a gold bug candid? te for President, I have no idea that the Populists will support the ticket or any part of it. “If this o.curs we will come to the parting of the ways in rational matters. “As for myself I would not advise a man to vote a ticket that I wouldn’t support myself. And I don't intend to vote for "any m nometalist for Presid ent or help to send one to Congress. “Do you know,” continued the Major, pointing his forefinger at the reporter, “I did’t vote for Tom Settle for Con gress last year. I told Tom that I couldn’t vote for him, for I was a silver man and would not support any man who voted for the repeal of the Sherman Act. “I pnt my ballot in for Dr. Wil liam Merritt, of Person. And, besides, I have a Democratic witness to prove it. “When I went up to vote, one of my Democratic friends, Mr. 8., was in line just behind me. I ?sked him to read the ballot I had in my band. He read it. ‘Now,’ said I, ‘watch where it goes.’ I dropped it in the box, and be saw me vote it. “I will not vote f r a monometalist. That’s where I am; and it its where I’m going to stand.” Which shows that in the ranks of Mr. | Marion Butler’s party not all favor I throwing their principles to wind, and fusing “for revenue only.” When the reporter approached Dr. Mott as be was wading to take the after- j noon train home, that astute politician did rot seem inclined to talk. He was asked what he thought of Bet- j tie, Holton and Devereux regarding I Fusion with the Populists. He hadn’t j read Mr. Deverenx's interview, but, af ter the position of the Raleigh lawyer ! had been explained to him. said slowly, 4 Well, there’s some sense in that.” “Do you regard fusion as certain next year? ’ the reporter af-ked. “I rather think there will be fusion on Sta’e affairs,’ guandly replied the Doctor. “I favor eo operation as we had it before.” “But v ill there be fusion in national matters?” “I don’t known the general senti ment on that point. I haven’t heard the matter much discussed, except in the newspapers. All that I have heard is individual opinion. There has not, so far as I know, been any conference on this question, and these are only indi vid ua 1 expression s. “But,” he cautiously continued, “I think there will be co-operation on the national ticket in some way—in what way I don’t know. That must be determined later.” RACE PROBLEM IN AMERICA. An E«gli*b Paper Describes a Decade of Negro Supremacy. London, Ot. 9.— The Times this morn ing prints prominently a letter headed : “The race problem in America,” signed by Thomas Edmonston, recount ing the story of a decade of negro su premacy in Bouth Carolina, up to 1876, which he describes as having been utterly unendurable He says : “We may as soon expect to see the sun rise in the West as to witness a com munity of Anglo Baxon’s blood submit tiug tamely to the oppression of a horde of savage negroes We ought to wish our kinsmen in South Carolina all God speed since their efforts are directed to wards true constitutionalism and not its reversal.*’ A Novel Law Halt. Murphy (Cherokee County) Scout. Some of the citizens around Ducktown engaged Ben Posey to institute suit against the Ducktown Sulphur, Iron and Copper Company for #I,OOO, as they claim that they have been damaged to this amount by the smoke killing their crops and vegetation. The timber is also killed for miles around. (For the News and Observer. THE OLD TIMEY NIGGER. Within the days of Useterbe an interesting Agger Was one whom everybody liked, the good, old fashion nigger. . , , Beside tbe negro dude to-day, with lemon colored shoes, „. , . . With slick store clothes, a speckled shirt and hide brimful of booze, There’s some who are disposed to think that he might be called a dullard, This here old darkey, who would cuss it you should call him “cullud.” It looks to me just like as if the nigger s had hi sday .... And’long with other cherished things has got to pass away, There’s some of us who recollect lnm on the old plantation, And wfio would never swap linn for the present generation. I know so far as I’m concerned that this is just tbe case, For I consider him Lto be the noblest of his twee, . . , ... So here’s a little song .for him—l wish it, was bigger— A song from one who’ll always love the good, old-timey nigger. The nigger of the slavery days, who took the cows to “parster,” At break of day, when they were milked, and then wake up “ole marster.” Polite as he could be he was, although his speech was poor; His old black face was kindly and his honest laugh a roar. At night he'd take us children up, according to his habit, Upon his knee, and tell about Br’cr Fox and sly Br’er llabblt. Delighted, we would listen and would cud dle, snug and warm, And, growing weary, fall asleep upon tbe strong black arm. He was a mighty hand at work, and also good at eating— And how he’d snow his appetite at every Dig camp-meeting 1 As I just said before, he was only a “nigger man,” And would ’a died had you called him “Afro- American.” For he despised new-fangled names and hi falutin jigger— God bless Ills memory, now lie’s gone, this old ancestral nigger. He loved us well, and his “ole ’oman” was to us a mother; In fact, we called her “mammy” then, me and my little brother. This nigger of my childhood days that 1 have in my mind Was but a common type of those before the war you’d And. I don’t believe that with their freedom and their education The present race can be compared to that old generation. In native worth and honesty and all that makes a man I am afraid they have declined from this old African. Os course there are exceptions, as there are to every ruling. Regarding some of them who took advan tage of their schooling. But, all the same, it seems to me there’s something that they lack— Don't think now that I want them into slavery to go back— But, while we’re talking, here’s this song— I wish that it was bigger— Which comes from one admirer of the plain old-fashioned nigger. EIIWAR!) GiLLIAW. Dehnar, Delaware. Weary and Worn. When the tired factory operative, the weary out door laborer, the overtasked book-keeper or clerk seeks a medical reet m;>enße for expenditure of bodily force, where -ball he find it? Con'd the recorded experience of thousands of workers be voiced, tbe verdict would be that II os tetter’s Stomach Bitters re news failing strength, stimulates the jaded mental powers to fresh activity, and relaxes undue nervous tension so as nothing else do s.

A fastidious st mach is not offended by it, and t persons of both sex( 8 in delicate health who occa sionally feel the need of an efficient tonic, the whole range of the pharmaco peia and the catab gue of proprietary medicines does not present a mere useful, safer or more decisive one.

Y, Oentiemea:—Having »«en Mexican flustang Lini ment extensively advertised here lnducee me to tell you how useful It la to persona In the livery business I have used It for the past 18 years on my horses for almost every thing that horses are subject to. For sprains and stiff Joints I do not think It haa an equal, and for such things as harness galls and rubs It la wonderful. I once had a very fine driver who was thrown from hls car riage In a runaway and so severely bruised about hls shoul ders and breast that I did not think he would ever be able to get on a carriage again. I remembered, however, what Mexican Mustang Liniment did for my horses In case of bruises and bad him use It constantly, and In about two weeks he was as good a driver as ever, and not an ache or pain remained. I know you must get tired of receiving such letters, but I thought I would add one more testimonial to the useful ness of Mustang Liniment Yours truly, ® * W. H. LANCAbi fall.
