Cooke, the pres ent Secretarv of State, and ulsn T candidate pl the p ocratio - . fof re - election; made two able .sneeches here yesterday. One in the afternoon to one hundred of the citizens, of the oounty and one at night to the Demo cratio club. His epseches were strong and forcible and will do much good for the cause of democraov.

There are not tfver three thous and mak6 in Harnett county over 21 years of age andjthese men are voters Yet there ara over three hundred men in the county who fail to py their poll tax and are credited with the bhcriff as insolvent for .the year 1805. Docs anybody belieye that the sheriff did all in bis power to make these men pay their taxes? The people demand asher iff that will col lect the taxes. We cannot believe that there are 150 white men and 160 negroes in Harnett county that cannot be made to pay their poll tax. Is it possible that there are more than three hundred men in Harnett who vote ;-t-. a ' that are paupers? - On last Saturday Miss Fisher Brantley, daughter of Mr. John Brantley of Lillington township, and' a young lady friend killed a hawk in the yard at her home. Tho hawk was a Yjey large one and it was cjuite an heroic deed of these young ladies Uo attack his hawkship so gallantly. From R, G.

The County Commissioners havo again extended the time for Sheriff Pope to produce the State Treasurer's receipt for State taxes until next Sat urday. Tiie commissioners do not want to take the tax books out of Sheriff Pope's hand it they can. pos sibly avoid it but the law is imper ative, and they htye no discretion in the matter, so if the receipt is not produced next Saturday, a tax col lector will be appointed and tlje list put into his hands. It was. stated by some parties at Lillington , "Monday that Sheriff - McArtan . got the list from the commissioners once before he had settled the State tax. This wa3 denied and Sheriff McArtan was called in and stated that this was not true, that oa account of a mistake . in the abstract sent to Raleigh, he did not get the receipt, and the commissioners refused to give him the tax list until ho brought a letter 'from the State Treasurer saying that the settlement was all right, .v lilt canndt- be charged that our county commissioners have acted un fairly with Saeriff Pope, as they have given hirp an extension of the time twice with the hope that he would make the settlement, and get the list as required-by lwW. ; v You can save money to see t God win & Lane before you buy, if you Wobds or Wisdom fkom in old Pa- ; . TRIOT. ' J. ne writer of this article has read of Washington, Jefferson , Jackson and many other great men. of the past and we admire them hecansA th were like ui, moved., only by nound principle. I have never believed in people acting without a cause, and the readers of this paper will' reman ber'that I left the democratic party more than a year agoand I ; did it for. a cause. I had served a long time in that party, had fought many hard battles, had kept the faith expecting a reward for my labors, but when they distributed the tffices they al ways forgot me, therefore I stepped over the line and joined the populist party, but have no office yet, not even being one of the nominees, al though 1 have been faithful to the marriage vow. 1 wish to inform my brethren that I am a not a 'republican-! anddid not promise to vote for re publicans when I joined them and as the "force biU,,t-that failed to pass in congreas a few years ago, is not in effect, I'll behanged if they can drive me into it now. I am a . white man. and a citizen of Harnett counly and expect to yote for white men to rule this country, call me -what you may. Just think, when I went to register my name; there sat.- a black African to administer the oath to me, put there by the republicans. Tnis is more than I can stand and I shall" ask to be excused if I fail to turn the day of election. up on -Now can any populist who left the democrats for principle vote for re publicans ? Tnere is no principle in it. It is just walking up and swal lowing the negro whole, big end foi emost, and I'll beiianged if they can work that racket on me. , When one of.our brethren called on us to know if we would support Chapin and Wilson in this election I frankly said no. I told him I could nt support men that- made even their own party blasb, to think about .That I was a silver white man and would not vote fur any -McKinley man under any circumstaces. That they belong to tho .gang that appointed negro registrars and negro magistrates ail, over this State, and there is no power to make me vote for them. - ; Now they say- there is to soon be a little gold bug of this county can vassing the district in tho interest of the gold standard party. . He ought to stay home and study the Question until election day and perhaps he would see that everybody else in the district-wero not fools and not he the' only wide-bnoad-minded-thiaker. He is too small to canvass a large terri tory at such a great distance from homo. j ; I have hand many misgivings since I left my old- mother tore myseif away from the paternal- roof.' I did so because I thoughtmy old mother party hadjotten corrupt and had gone after Grover Cleveland, Carlisle and other false gods. " I thought that the populist party was true to its teach ings that it was going to establish and put into effect the old Andrew Jackson principles' of democracy but to my dtep chagrin I found they were following other gods more dia reputable than those my brethren were following when I pulled out from them. " v I went down to Dunn the other day to hear the speeches of: Gudger and Reynolds. Gudger -is a man whom I had a high regard for when he was a democrat, and he, like my self, left the party because it did not give him office. I heard him through and saw how he appealed to the pre judices of the people and bow he laid" the blame of all the ills from which we are suffering to the democratic party my mother. " I saw also how he made a speech to eaten ''the negro voters who made a large m3jority of his hearers. And I also heard Rey nolds, the republican: candidate for Lieutenant Governor, say that four fifths of the populists would vote for McKinley and the gold standard. And then I have read in the pa pers how the populisms are fusing with the republicans in some' of the coun ties aft d by that fusion are required to vote for negroes. Sjcb is the case in Wake county, where James H. Young, the negro politican of Ral eigh, is a candidate on the fusion ticket for the legislature. Also in Edgecombe, Anson, Vance and sev eral others that I could mention the populists are asked to vote for' ne groes. yhen I read Vuch as- this - it makes my blood boil, and I return to the house of my mother and peintently ask to be forgiven and from henceforth will abide in the grand old ship of democracy -the borne of my friends and the only white man's party; in North Carolira. :' . - ' .

It has never been a pleasure to ns to publish, in public print, 1 the mis doings'and rascality of any man, or set of men; but on some , occasions it is necessary to do so for the public weal. In this instance we feel called upon to let the people, know " what manner of man they are called upon by the republicans . and populists of the county to vote for, to represent them in the next General Assembly of North Carolina. The : republicans nominated and the populists havo endorsed one L. B. Chapin, of Summerville, to represent the people of Harnett in the next -House of Representatives. The peo ple of the county should know what kind of man he is. He is a republi can and will vote the straight repub lican ticket State add National and if elected will vote for Jeter C, Pritch ard,f or.- some other avowed gold standard republican, for the United States Senate. . , Chapin is at present school ex aminer in Harnett and was appointed to" this office by his brother-in law, F. M. McKy; clerk of the court of Harnett county.- He is vwell known in the oounty, having been, and is now, a practicing attorney : for quite a number of years. He"-3swell known and we have fouud few of his own friends who speak favorable of him.' ' .' " " . - - ' ;'. It is said that Chapin has not dealt square with all his clients.- In 1891 he wa&acting as attorney for Ri G. Dunn & Co., and reoeived from them a claim for collection from the C. A Conklin M'f g..Co. which he collect ed and gave receipts in his own hand writing for same, which are on i file. The amount was about'$75 collected from Sutton & Co , at that time mer chants at this place. He put the money in his pocket and the company, for whom he collected, instituted suit against him for the -payment of the money, and to prevent their recovery of a judgement against him and in order to keep his license he convey ed to them a tract of land by deed, a reeord of which can be found, at the 1 county 'court house. A representative, a Mr. Slatcher, of R. G. Dunn & Co. came to see him in pnrson and wben he found he was caught he conveyed the land; f Chapin is a lawyer and knows the 'law. .The above is not all that we have heard and Lave proof qf, but it is sufficient to let the people know what manner of man he is. If he will prove false toa client -when be .knows there is a law -to punish ;him, bow can the" people expect him to prove faithful to them in the execu tion cf their wishes in the legislature. The people waul an honest ' man to represent them there. "When i they read the above they will know ! that . Chapin is not that kind of man. -They will not vote for him to degrade the fair name of Harnett "county in the Capital of the State. ' We believe that the honest men of Harnett coun ty, and we know they are in the ma- jority. .CV.ap:j- rili . .vote .'8?3Qst-" tui? raan FREE SILVER IS HOOD & .HAVE THE MOST RUGS, STATIONERY, EBFTJIJES. .SOAPS, and aU ld3 of tntdoxntlUscoTintry. :.Wo7ill sell you BURE DRUGS - . ; v as cheap as any one.
